Chapter 137: Chapter 108: Watching Tigers Fight from the Mountain, The Road Is Long (Part 3)

When facing an expert, they are nothing but scattered sand.

If they can coalesce military spirit and Qi, even a mere few hundred men could withstand thousands of troops.

When facing an Innate expert, they can still fight head-on; if the commanding general is strong enough, they might even be able to slay an Innate.

This is the true foundation.

"The Prince isn’t worried at all?"

Gu Qingshuang’s expression was somewhat peculiar.

"Worried about what? Worried that Luo Yuanhua might hurt Tian Qi? It’s fine, he knows his limits, at most he would just give him a beating.

Tian Qi comes from humble origins, and having been a beggar, a bit of wildness is inevitable...

If we truly want to forge him into a sharp blade, we must hone away the arrogance in his heart."

"No, I’m worried about something happening to Luo Yuanhua."

Gu Qingshuang was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"That’s impossible. Didn’t you say Tian Qi is most skilled in Outer Sect Qi Blood Body Refining Hard Skill?

The path of Qi Blood Body Refining has been around for many years, and there have been no records of anyone breaking into the Innate. His talent might be good, but the ceiling has been set; how much stronger can he get?

It’s hard to find such a good seed, but it’s a pity if he’s wasted like this.

And that Luo Yuanhua, he’s just twenty-three years old, and has already comprehended a hint of Coiling Dragon True Intent... with military Qi tempering him day and night, perhaps in three to five years, he’ll break into the Innate...

With his battlefield experience, it wouldn’t be surprising if his name entered the Earth List and he became one of the Huwei Longxiang under the lone king. How could Tian Qi compare?"

As Ji Changlie’s voice faded.

There was the sound of hurried footsteps from outside the garden.

Before the person arrived, the voice was already heard.

"Something’s wrong, something’s wrong."

A eunuch rushed over in a panic, nearly tripping.

"Such improper conduct."

Ji Changlie’s expression was displeased, and he snorted coldly.

He thought that the attendants in the residence needed to be replaced.

Although this was a temporary residence, newly trained servants weren’t very handy.

But to panic at the slightest incident really was no proper conduct.

Letting others see it would be a loss of face.

"Speak, wasn’t there a martial competition in the front courtyard? What happened? Was Tian Qi severely wounded by that reckless Luo Yuanhua?

He didn’t even consider that he was still a guest after accompanying Xiaoyue across a thousand miles."

"No, Tian Qi, he, he’s fine..."

The eunuch stammered, seeing Ji Changlie’s expression, his words became more hesitant.

Seeing Ji Changlie’s expression worsen, he closed his eyes, braced himself, and reported: "General Luo had several bones broken by a punch from Tian Qi and was seriously injured, coughing up blood."

"What?"

Ji Changlie was utterly shocked.

"He didn’t use the spear?"

Luo Yuanhua practiced the Burning Heart Scripture, had already opened the Eight Extraordinary Meridians, and even comprehended a trace of Martial Dao True Meaning. His Coiling Dragon Spear Technique was exceedingly proficient.

He had once fought single-handedly against eighteen top-tier experts on Black Cloud Mountain, each spear stroke deadly, leaving no matches.

The famed Jinghai White-Robed General was a name made by his own merits.

Unless he met with an Innate expert, even if he faced a promising new talent ranked high on the Hidden Dragon List, it wasn’t certain that he would be defeated.

No matter what, he should be able to exchange ten to eight moves.

To be defeated with a single punch, he must have been careless, not dodging, and not using the spear.

"He did use the spear; the Coiling Dragon Spear was also broken by a punch from Tian Qi. The force backlash injured his ribcage; otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so severely injured."

"Is there such a thing?"

Ji Changlie turned his head to look at Gu Qingshuang, only to see her smiling faintly.

This Saintess of the Extreme Yin Sect had accompanied them the whole way, having seen everything with her own eyes... She only mentioned that Tian Qi practiced some profound body refining technique and sword techniques, but never said his fist was this powerful.

What kind of fist technique is it exactly?

"Prince, didn’t I say? That Tian Qi is a genius with immense power, yet you didn’t believe it." She discreetly pointed to the side, lowered her voice, and chuckled, "Stop worrying about Tian Qi’s fist technique, perhaps you should be more concerned about Xiaoyue."

Ji Changlie turned his head and saw a little girl with wet hair in formal attire glaring at him, her eyes misty: "Father, is this how you treat Seventh Brother?"

Hua Lian’er, being so clever, heard just a few words and already guessed what had transpired.

It’s just the usual treatment of a subordinate by a superior.

But Seventh Brother, being outwardly harmonious yet inwardly proud, how could he tolerate this?

With reddened eyes, she spoke a sentence then turned and ran towards the front hall.

"I hope Seventh Brother hasn’t left."

Just as she reached the front hall, Hua Lian’er felt a heaviness in her heart.

The sound of hooves receded into the distance; his figure was already gone.
