Empress Running Away with the Ball

Chapter 167: A child’s skills

“It’s too late to feel fear now! In this world, there is no good ending for anyone that offends my third brother! My third brother is a person that holds grudges and you better pray to god that he never finds you in this lifetime.”

Chu Shao Bai rolled his eyes, but he did not fail to notice her slight trembling.

His words were very cold, but he took a large black cloak and draped it over her shoulders.

Chen Ning’s heart felt warm.

“Xiao Bai, you will help me, right?” She suddenly turned her head and revealed a gentle smile to him.

His heart began beating fast and his breathing seemed like it had stopped. He just gave a grunt.

“You want me to help you go against my third brother? I won’t do that.” He had no emotions on his face as he rejected her.

Did this girl think that he would help her just because she smiled at him?

He could help her play around with his third brother and embarrass his third brother, but if anyone wanted to harm his third brother’s life, he, Chu Shao Yang would never agree.

Even if it was her!

Chen Ning was not angry. She revealed a faint smile and said, “Xiao Bai, your qinggong is quite good. Are you willing to teach me qinggong?”

“Learn qinggong?” Chu Shao Bai was stunned. He turned to look at her, “The help you’re asking for is for me to teach you qinggong?”

“That’s right.” Chen Ning raised her brows and then sat back on the grass. She pulled out a stalk of grass to chew and then she spat it out.

Her movements were very natural and did not seem fake at all. She was completely different from the other large family daughters he had met before.

“Why do you want to learn qinggong?” He sat down right beside her, touching his shoulder to hers.

“Of course it is to run away.” Chen Ning giggled and then stuck her tongue out, “I have offended your third brother today, so next time he sees me, he will definitely wish to kill me. If I had qinggong at the same level as you, even if I can’t beat him, I can still run away!”

Chu Shao Bai found this frustrating and funny.

Does she think that qinggong is that easy to learn?

If she wanted to run away from his third brother, she wouldn’t be able to accomplish this even after practicing for ten years.

But, if she did learn qinggong, if she was ever in danger, she would have another way to keep her life.

“Alright, I’ll teach you.” He nodded without any hesitation.

Chen Ning was a little excited, “Is qinggong hard to learn?”

“Of course it is not hard.” Chu Shao Bai responded without even thinking about it. For him, it was something very easy, “But, do you have internal energy?”

He did not even have to ask to know. She did not have any internal energy at all.

She knew a few basic martial arts, but that kind of martial arts to him and his third brother was just like child’s play. It was not the same.

“Not a little bit.” Chen Ning honestly shook her head.

“If you do not have any internal energy, it is hard to reach the peak while learning qinggong.” Chu Shao Bai felt a little awkward as he thought for a bit before saying, “How about I teach you an internal energy technique first?”

Chen Ning’s eyes lit up. Of course she wanted to learn internal energy, she knew from the books that she read that internal energy was gradually built up and not gained overnight.

“I don’t need to reach the peak, I just need be able to run faster.”

“If it’s like this, then it’s much easier. I’ll teach you the qinggong entry heart sutra now.” Chu Shao Bai thought for a bit, “You have to remember it well, I’ll only say it once. If you’re too dumb to remember it, I won’t say it again.” He deliberately said.

Chen Ning revealed a gentle smile and just nodded.

“Alright, then listen well. There’s a total of eight formulas.” Chu Shao Bai began chanting, “The body is light when one’s qi is light, the body is heavy when one’s qi is heavy. First fill the heavens and then make the qi light. Make the body as light as a swallow and let the body float like weeds. Success will grant the ability to fly, everyone will have a different nature.”

His words were clearly articulated his words, but he said it very quickly. After he finished, he eagerly looked at Chen Ning with eyes filled with a teasing gaze.

“If you can’t remember it, then just call me good big brother. Every time you say it, will repeat it once for you.”
