149 I’m Afraid I’ll Hurt You
On the morning of the second day, Ye Feng went to the Xu family again.
Just as he entered the courtyard, he heard a man’s voice.
“Miss Jingxin, what do you think of my Left Sun Fist?”
“It’s pretty good,” Xu Jingxin answered immediately, but her words sounded a little perfunctory.
“I’ll teach you then?”
“No need, I’m not interested in kung fu.”
“Girls can learn some self-defense skills to better protect themselves. Especially for a beautiful girl like you. You can’t let your guard down. Come, I’ll teach you.”
At this time, Ye Feng had already walked into the courtyard.
He saw a man who was only a few years older than him standing in front of Xu Jingxin, trying to please her.
Ye Feng looked at Xu Jingxin and the man in confusion.
When Xu Jingxin saw Ye Feng, she seemed to be relieved, and a smile bloomed on her face. “Ye Feng, you’re here…”
Ye Feng nodded and glanced at the man. He turned to Xu Jingxin and asked, “Who is he?”
Without waiting for Xu Jingxin’s introduction, the man had already taken the initiative to speak. “You are Ye Feng, right?”
Ye Feng looked at him coldly. “That’s me. Who are you?”
The man immediately snorted coldly. “You’re so rude. Didn’t Master teach you the rules? Don’t you know how to bow when you see senior brother?”
Ye Feng was confused. “Senior brother? What senior brother?”
At this time, Liu Wenyuan happened to walk out of the backyard. “This is your Seventh Senior Brother, Sun Tai. Didn’t you say that it was boring to practice the wooden dummy alone? I’ll get him to be your sparring partner.”
Only then did Ye Feng suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart. He cupped his fists toward Sun Tai. “So it’s Senior Brother Sun. Junior Brother greets Senior Brother.”
Sun Tai glanced at him arrogantly. “Recently, I’ve heard Master say that he has accepted a new disciple with extraordinary talent. I’ve finally met him today, haha…”
Everyone could tell that there was a hint of sarcasm in his words.
Liu Wenyuan furrowed his brows. “A’Tai, your junior brother joined the sect relatively late. As his senior brother, you have to guide him so that he doesn’t take the wrong path.”
Sun Tai said with a troubled expression, “Master, I’m usually very busy with work. Where do I find so much time?”
“Moreover, since Junior Brother Ye is a rare genius, why would he need my guidance?”
“I guess it won’t be long before I need his guidance.”
Liu Wenyuan looked at him with a serious face.
“You can put aside work for a while. My health hasn’t been as good as it was in the past few years, so I’m thinking of picking one of you to take over my position and protect Miss Xu for me. I hope that you will put in more effort and not let me down.”
Sun Tai’s eyes lit up.
There was a hint of infatuation in his eyes as he looked at Xu Jingxin.
“Don’t worry, Master. I won’t let you down.”
Liu Wenyuan nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, you guys can start practicing. Your junior brother’s foundation is still shallow, so you should give in to him a little.” New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on NoveI[F]ire.net
Sun Tai immediately agreed. Then, he turned to Ye Feng. “Junior Brother Ye, make your move. Let me see how your basic skills are.”
Ye Feng immediately got into a fighting stance and prepared to attack.
Sun Tai, on the other hand, put his hands behind his back and didn’t take it seriously.
“Senior Brother, you’d better be serious. I’m afraid I’ll hurt you.”
Ye Feng saw his attitude and immediately reminded him.
“Hahaha, I’ve already been in the sect for seven years. If I can still be injured by a newbie who’s only been in the sect for seven days, then wouldn’t my seven years of hard work have been for nothing?”
Sun Tai still looked indifferent.
“Alright, take this!”
Ye Feng did not say anything more. He immediately attacked him.
“Good!” Sun Tai shouted and dodged his attack easily.
Then, he changed his steps and easily circled behind the other party.
He deliberately wanted to show off in front of Xu Jingxin, so he naturally had to be more carefree.
Therefore, he did not take the opportunity to attack. He just stood with his hands behind his back, acting like an expert.
Ye Feng’s attack missed, and his heart was somewhat shaken.
After all, this was his first time fighting with someone, so it was inevitable that he lacked experience.
If Sun Tai took the opportunity to attack from behind, he would have been defeated.
However, this shock only lasted for a moment. After a while, Ye Feng quickly recovered and continued to attack.
Sun Tai still had his hands behind his back. He just kept dodging but didn’t fight back.
As the two of them attacked and dodged, they quickly fought from the courtyard to the pavilion.
At this time, Xu Jingxin kept looking at Ye Feng nervously, afraid that he would get hurt.
Liu Wenyuan could tell what she was thinking and smiled. “Don’t worry, Sun Tai knows what he’s doing. He won’t hurt that kid.”
Xu Jingxin nodded slightly, but the worry on her face did not decrease at all.
As the number of attacks increased, Ye Feng gradually entered a mysterious state.
His eyes and ears were unprecedentedly sharp, as if he could capture the trajectory of everything around him.
He was able to catch a tiny loophole from this subtle trajectory, including Sun Tai’s every move. It was as if he could predict everything 0.01 seconds in advance with that subtle feeling.
Even though 0.01 seconds was extremely short, it was enough to determine the outcome of a battle.
Ye Feng was not sure if this was a real prediction or an illusion, so he could only try.
At this time, Sun Tai made a small mistake when he dodged to the left.
Ye Feng did not hesitate any longer. His right leg suddenly flew up.
It appeared 0.01 seconds in advance at the position where Sun Tai was dodging.
A muffled sound immediately reverberated through the small courtyard.
Sun Tai stumbled and almost fell into the lotus pond in the courtyard.
However, it was a good thing that he was extremely stable and immediately stabilized his body.
But even so, after he stabilized himself, Sun Tai still looked at Ye Feng in disbelief.
