"Brother Qing, you're back."

"what!"

"Brother Qing, what happened to you? Who did this?"

When Wei Lan saw the bruises all over Xiao Weiqing's arm, her face immediately turned cold.

"Don't be nervous. I went to learn knife skills from Teacher Zhao. We practiced for a while, and Teacher Zhao gave me some medicine. I just need to apply it when I get home."

"oh."

Wei Lan pouted, "Teacher Zhao, really, doesn't she know how to go easy on me?"

Xiao Weiqing laughed and said, "A lighter touch won't have any effect."

"Let's go back."

The two returned to the villa.

Xiao Weiqing walked to the villa entrance and looked back to see that Wei Lan was still following him.

"What's wrong with you? Why aren't you going home?"

Wei Lan blushed slightly. "I...I want to apply the medicine for you, but...it's inconvenient for your back, isn't it?"

Xiao Weiqing thought about it and agreed.

"Okay, come in."

Upon entering the living room, Xiao Weiqing put down the red dragon and sat down on a stool.

"Hey..."

Xiao Weiqing handed over the medicine bottle.

He took off his short-sleeved shirt, revealing his muscular upper body.

Xiao Weiqing has the kind of physique that looks slim when dressed but muscular when undressed, with well-defined muscles.

When Wei Lan saw Xiao Weiqing's bare upper body, her pretty face flushed red.

"Wei Lan, Wei Lan?"

"Huh? What's up, Brother Qing?"

Xiao Weiqing was annoyed. "Shouldn't I be asking you? Weren't you going to apply medicine to my wound?"

"Oh...oh...okay."

Wei Lan opened the medicine bottle and began applying it to Xiao Weiqing.

"hiss...."

"Brother Qing, are you alright?"

"It's okay, continue."

"Oh, I'll be gentle."

Wei Lan stroked Xiao Weiqing's back with her delicate hands, her face growing redder with each touch.

Xiao Weiqing enjoyed the feeling. Firstly, the medicine was incredibly potent and the cool, refreshing sensation was very comfortable. Secondly, Wei Lan's small hands were indeed very gentle.

After applying the ointment to the back, proceed to the front.

"I'll handle the front myself."

Wei Lan kept her head down, seemingly not hearing, and continued applying the medicine.

Seeing this, Xiao Weiqing did not stop him and was happy to enjoy it.

When the hand touched her chest, it inexplicably pinched her.

Xiao Weiqing sat up straight and looked up at Wei Lan.

Wei Lan stared at her hands, then looked at Xiao Weiqing, and their eyes met.

"Ah!~"

Wei Lan put down the ointment and ran out of the villa.

"..."

Xiao Weiqing was full of doubt, "Isn't I the one who was teased?"

He shook his head and applied the medicine to himself.

An hour later.

Xiao Weiqing was mostly recovered and texted Wei Lan, "Want to have dinner together?"

"I'm not hungry," Wei Lan replied immediately.

Xiao Weiqing had no choice but to find food himself.

Next, they went to the training room of Ziwei Pavilion to prepare for the afternoon's sword techniques.

I didn't practice for long.

Just then, they ran into Zhuang Yu, who came up carrying a sword.

"Huh? Xiao Weiqing?"

"Are you practicing with your sword?"

"Um."

"Sure, that's pretty good. How about we give it a try? What's the point of practicing on your own?"

Xiao Weiqing, recalling Zhao Jia's words, nodded and said, "Alright."

"Then let's switch to ironwood weapons, so you don't get hurt."

"Um."

The two stopped.

Zhuang Yu said, "My extraordinary talent is a level 5 'skill,' the White Crane Sword Technique. Don't worry, I'll hold back a bit."

Xiao Weiqing: "Okay."

"Here it comes, watch out."

Zhuang Yu took a step forward and thrust his sword forward.

Xiao Weiqing's eyes flickered slightly. "Sword, thrust straight in, use the intercepting blade directly."

"Ding!~"

With a soft sound, Zhuang Yu's attack was immediately stopped.

Zhuang Yu paused for a moment, holding his sword.

However, Xiao Weiqing was not stunned. He remembered the key points of blocking: either create distance or counterattack.

Zhuang Yu's force was not heavy, it could even be described as light, which was a good opportunity to counterattack.

It parted the longsword, the blade thrust straight in, and stopped in front of Zhuang Yu.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Weiqing asked in confusion, "Zhuang Yu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

Zhuang Yu snapped out of his daze, "Cough...cough..."

"I ate too much just now, and I have stomach cramps."

"Let's do it again!"

Xiao Weiqing nodded, "Okay."

Zhuang Yu attacked first again. This time, Zhuang Yu did not underestimate Xiao Weiqing. It would be ridiculous if he really failed. A level 5 'skill' wielding a weapon could not defeat a level 3 'technique'.

Zhuang Yu exerted force with his feet, leaping two meters in one step, and with a move called "White Crane Points the Way," he thrust at Xiao Weiqing, his speed more than twice as fast as before.

Xiao Weiqing parried with his slanted blade, deflecting the sword tip to the side.

Zhuang Yu seemed to have anticipated this, turning around to use the Cloud Sword, a very basic sword move, but combined with his movement, the attack was extremely fierce.

Xiao Weiqing remained calm and composed; compared to Zhao Jia, Zhuang Yu's moves were noticeably slower.

He blocked with his vertical blade, then parried it away, keeping his feet moving to create distance.

The White Crane Sword Technique emphasizes agility and speed, and Zhuang Yu's sword always kept Xiao Weiqing in check.

With a gust of wind, fallen leaves were swept towards Xiao Weiqing's lower body.

"Sweep, parry with a lift."

"Clang!~"

After several successful parries, Zhuang Yu became increasingly alarmed.

"This Xiao Weiqing, is he cheating?"

After several moves and failing to gain the upper hand, Zhuang Yu gradually grew impatient.

Instead, Xiao Weiqing seized the opportunity and slashed horizontally, forcing him to roll over and dodge.

"Zhuang Yu, you don't need to go easy on me."

Zhuang Yu almost choked on his breath, cursing inwardly, "I didn't give way to you, and I never intended to."

"Take this, White Crane Spreads Its Wings!"

Her slender figure leaped high into the air, like a white crane swooping down, the tip of her sword swinging left and right, quickly cutting through the air as she attacked Xiao Weiqing.

"So fast!"

"Block, hold the center line."

Xiao Weiqing kept Zhao Jia's words in mind.

Seize the opportunity, turn to the side, let the blade and sword collide, and use all your strength to guide the direction of the attack.

However, as expected of a level 5 talent skill, the White Crane Spreads Its Wings struck Xiao Weiqing's shoulder at an odd angle.

The two figures moved apart and did not make another move.

Xiao Weiqing breathed a sigh of relief, "I lost. Your White Crane Sword Technique is indeed powerful."

Zhuang Yu sheathed his sword and secretly breathed a sigh of relief; he had almost embarrassed himself.

"Then you keep practicing, I'll go to the ladder."

"Um."

Xiao Weiqing put the ironwood sword back and reflected on the battle just now, wondering if there was anything he could improve. Real combat really could quickly promote the improvement of swordsmanship.

One hour later.

Wei Lan and Xiao Weiqing met up and, familiar with the way, arrived at the spiritual energy cultivation room.

"Set a goal: cultivate the spiritual energy in the Shenque acupoint to 75%."

late at night.

Xiao Weiqing and Wei Lan walked out of the Spirit Tower and walked back to Ziwei Courtyard.

I ran into Fei Xiaobao on the way.

"Oh dear, what sins have I committed to deserve this? Even while cultivating spiritual energy, I have to run into the two of you, a perfect couple."

Upon hearing this...

Wei Lan blushed.

Xiao Weiqing laughed and asked, "Where's your Zhuang Yu?"

"Hey? Don't talk nonsense. At most, we're just roommates." Fei Xiaobao said with a look of horror.

"He went to the Heavenly Ladder, and it seems he hasn't come out yet."

Xiao Weiqing asked, "We're going to test our spiritual energy. Do you want to come along?"

Fei Xiaobao said irritably, "Spare me, what would I do there? Be a third wheel?"

Xiao Weiqing nodded, "I was just asking casually."

Fei Xiaobao: "?"

"Damn it! If I could beat you, I would have spit you out in one breath."

"I'm gone."

Fei Xiaobao quickened his pace and left quickly.

......

The two went to the second floor of the Ziwei Pavilion for the test.

"76%, 84."

"Not bad." Xiao Weiqing was very satisfied with his cultivation progress.

Let's look at Wei Lan again.

"59%, 76."

"Um?"

"Wei Lan, did you slack off before?" Xiao Weiqing said with a stern face.

This time, the little girl's progress was much faster than before.

Wei Lan shrank back and gestured with her fingers, "Just a tiny bit, just a tiny bit."

"From now on, you must cultivate diligently and not be lazy."

"Okay, Brother Qing, I promise."

Wei Lan straightened her chest, her impressive figure almost bursting out.

"Okay. I'm going back."

"Brother Qing, aren't you going to the Heavenly Ladder?"

"Go back to cultivate. I'm currently ranked over 1000th on the Heavenly Ladder, no rush."

Wei Lan nodded, "Then I'll go play the ladder. My teacher taught me two moves this afternoon, I'll give them a try."

"come on."

"Um."

Xiao Weiqing returned to his dormitory alone and began practicing the Samadhi True Fire Refining Technique to enhance his Qi and Fire. As his spiritual energy became more abundant, the speed at which he enhanced his Qi and Fire also increased.

This feeling of elevation was irresistible to him.

time flies.

It was already late at night.

"call......"

"723 silk".

"It will be perfect in three more days. I wonder what changes will occur then."
