Chapter 535: Prowess of God Hands
writer:Longing Washes Red Beans      update:2022-07-06 19:29
  “Huh?”

  Gu Xiuxun was stunned. What kind of trickery was this? However, she had seen vicious people before and knew that she mustn’t easily believe in others.

  Their occupation had a requirement on one’s character. However, all humans had emotions and desires. There might not be big mistakes, but there was no end to small errors.

  “Teacher Xiao, there’s no need for that!”

  Sun Mo spoke up. He had already beaten Xiao Li up and taught him a lesson, so there wasn’t a need for Xiao Li to apologize. “If you’re displeased, you can challenge me to another duel after your injuries are healed. I’ll be up for it any time!”

  Hearing this, Xiao Li appeared embarrassed, “Teacher Sun, I……”

  Xiao Li didn’t know what he should say. He wasn’t one with a fiery temper and liked to look for trouble. After all, having been insulted and looked down on for the past 20 years, his temper had worn down.

  The other day, it was because the examination was nearing and he had had too much to drink. Therefore, he had done something irrational.

  Thinking about it, it was a shame to the great teacher title.

  “Teacher Sun, I’ve let you down. I already know of the Saint Gate’s decision of this matter. I’ve been waiting for you. Let us set off right away!”

  Xiao Li put up a struggle, wanting to get off the bed. “I’ll tell the judges that it’s all my bad. I’ll get them to allow you to continue to take part in the examinations!”

  Gu Xiuxun and Li Ziqi felt a little surprised. What a turn of events.

  Sun Mo quickly went up to support Xiao Li and then assessed him.

  “I’m sorry!”

  Xiao Li lowered his head, looking very embarrassed.

  “Haha!”

  Sun Mo suddenly laughed, patting Xiao Li on the shoulder. “If you really don’t mind, then how about we let this matter rest here? But I’ll definitely not apologize.”

  “Teacher Sun must be joking, how can I let Teacher Sun apologize? After all, I was the one to pick a fight.”

  Xiao Li smiled in self-mockery. “There isn’t much time, let’s go quickly!”

  “No need!”

  Sun Mo rejected.

  “Huh?”

  Xiao Li was surprised and he looked at Sun Mo with a stunned expression. “Then what about the examinations? Teacher Sun, if you aren’t able to rise to 2 stars consecutively, I’ll feel uneasy.”

  “It’ll do as long as I cure you!”

  Sun Mo laughed.

  “Huh?”

  Xiao Li was stunned.

  “Didn’t the Saint Gate say that? As long as you can participate in the examination, then I can do so too!”

  Sun Mo explained.

  “No, I mean……”

  Xiao Li subconsciously looked toward his arms. (I’m already like this, so how are you going to cure it?)

  There was a saying that it’d take 100 days to heal after getting injured in the sinews or bones. Given his injuries, even if a divine doctor was the one to take on this case, it’d take at least four to five days for him to recover, right?

  Moreover, the examination was going to start the day after!

  “Teacher Xiao, don’t worry. If Teacher Sun takes on the job, I assure you that your arms will be as good as it was.”

  After ascertaining that Xiao Li had no hostility, Gu Xiuxun broke into a smile.

  “My teacher has the great reputation of God Hands in Jinling!”

  Li Ziqi smiled sweetly.

  Xiao Li paused for a moment but still shook his head. “Since you can fix broken bones, then using the God Hands must require you to deplete quite a lot of spirit qi and energy, right? With the examination coming up, you should avoid unnecessary depletion. Therefore, we should go to the Saint Gate to explain things and return you justice!”

  “Teacher Xiao, I don’t like to plead to others!”

  Sun Mo held back Xiao Li who insisted on leaving.

  Xiao Li had wanted to persuade him, but after seeing Sun Mo’s pair of eyes, he gave up. This was a man with principles and insistence.

  He really was nothing compared to him!

  Ding!

  Favorable impression points from Xiao Li +20. Neutral (20/100). ……

  Xiao Li lay back on the bed. The white cloth and wooden rods on his arms were removed, revealing his swollen and twisted arms.

  “Did I go overboard?”

  Sun Mo suddenly felt a little bad.

  “Should I get her to leave?”

  Xiao Li asked in a soft voice. He was worried the maid would see the usage of the God Hands.

  “No need!”

  If the maid were to leave, he’d lose out a lot of favorable impression points. Moreover, it wasn’t just one or two times that he had performed in front of others.

  If it could be easily learned, then divine skills would be too worthless.

  “I’ll trouble Teacher Sun then.”

  Xiao Li looked at Sun Mo’s slightly awkward expression and then consoled him, “Teacher Sun, you don’t have to feel bad. The fault is all on me. But in the future, I’ll remember this lesson.”

  “I’ll be starting then.”

  Sun Mo raised Xiao Li’s left arm and massaged it in parts. He first ascertained the spots where the bones were broken. At the same time, he also observed with Divine Sight to obtain more detailed information.

  Although Immemorial Vairocana wasn’t an attacking technique, its prowess wasn’t weak. Not only did Eighteen Words Order break Xiao Li’s bones, but it also hurt his energy channels. Based on the current way to fix the bones together, even if the bones were to recover fully, he wouldn’t be able to recover fully.

  Sun Mo quickly came up with a treatment plan. He first used the bone setting technique to heal the broken bones, then used the circulation technique to heal the energy channels.

  When Sun Mo’s fingers started pressing down, Xiao Li immediately felt a comfortable sensation.

  He had massages before, but they felt painful and itchy or sore and numb. The feelings were very weird. However, under Sun Mo’s hands, it was purely comfortable.

  This feeling made one feel intoxicated.

  The maid stood at the side respectfully, not saying anything. However, she understood the conversation between these few great teachers. She then snuffed at it. (Wanting to cure his arms immediately? It wouldn’t be so fast even in one’s dreams!)

  (God Hands? You guys are really boasting to no end. But this guy’s fingers are indeed very long and they do look good.)

  The maid was a diligent person and secretly took a few steps forward. She opened her eyes wide and wanted to secretly learn from Sun Mo. However, at the next instant, she saw a tremendous amount of spirit qi gushing out from his arms, forming a strong man that had an extremely pressuring visual impact.

  Thud thud thud!

  The maid quickly backed off, looking astonished.

  My god!

  What the hell was this?

  “Uhh!”

  Xiao Li was surprised to see the genie’s appearance. He wanted to swing his fists to attack it, but there was no helping it. This was purely out of his self-defense instincts.

  “There’s no need to be nervous!”

  Sun Mo consoled him.

  Xiao Li stopped feeling nervous. It was because as the genie started giving him a massage, his body completely relaxed. There were only images of blue sky and white clouds left on his mind.

  Xiao Li immediately felt as if he had returned to his worry-free childhood, when he was looking after grazing cows, chopping firewood, and running all over the mountain. Other than often having to go hungry, life was actually pretty good back then. It was unlike now, when life was filled with hurdles and setbacks.

  Half an hour later, the treatment was completed.

  The genie disappeared.

  “Teacher Xiao? Teacher Xiao? Wake up, it has ended!”

  Sun Mo went to wash his hands while Gu Xiuxun pushed Xiao Li.

  “Huh? Where am I?”

  Xiao Li had a very comfortable sleep. He couldn’t help but rub his eyes.

  “Huh?”

  The maid screamed as if she had seen a ghost. “Your arm……”

  “My arm?”

  Xiao Li subconsciously put out his hands to take a look. There was nothing wrong, this was his own arms. He was then stunned. If he didn’t remember wrongly, this arm was still swollen and bruised before he fell asleep. Why had it returned to normal now?

  Xiao Li moved a few fingers and then punched out his fist. He didn’t feel any pain at all.

  “Right, God Hands……”

  Xiao Li was struck with a realization and he looked at Sun Mo in astonishment. His face filled with disbelief in that instant.

  This was something that could be done by humans?

  “Your arms are fine now.”

  Sun Mo smiled.

  Xiao Li didn’t say anything, but the system’s notification rang through Sun Mo’s ears.

  Ding!

  Favorable impression points from Xiao Li +500. Friendly (520/1,000).

  He was completely astonished by how powerful the ancient massaging technique was.

  “How is that possible?”

  As the genie was gone, the maid summoned up her courage and dashed forth a few steps. She stared at Xiao Li’s arms, her face filled with astonishment.

  She had applied medicine for Xiao Li before and knew how serious his injuries were. To think that it had recovered now?

  She couldn’t understand!

  Thereafter, a strong feeling of regret rose in the maid’s heart.

  (Damn it! Why didn’t I remember it? If I could learn it, I wouldn’t have to fret about my livelihood for the rest of my life!)

  But soon, the maid came to an understanding. This divine skill was naturally a great teacher’s ultimate art, so even if this young man were to teach her step by step, she wouldn’t be able to learn it.

  “I’m just an ordinary person after all!”

  The maid consoled herself.

  Ding!

  Favorable impression points from maid +1,000. Respect (1,000/10,000).

  Thereafter, the maid hesitated to speak. Xiao Li had recovered fully and clearly didn’t need a servant to attend to him anymore. The salary they had agreed on……

  “Ziqi, give her 200 taels!”

  Sun Mo instructed.

  “Auntie, take this!”

  Li Ziqi opened her purse and took out a silver note, handing it to the maid.

  “It’s too much! It’s too much!”

  The maid said modestly, but her hands still reached out uncontrollably. That was 200 taels. It would be enough money to last her family for half a year.

  “That won’t do! I should be the one to pay the salary!”

  Xiao Li got up to reach for his purse. Then, he realized to his surprise that his arms were really fine now. However, he then started to feel regret.

  Now that his arms had recovered, wouldn’t that mean that he wouldn’t have the chance to enjoy this massage anymore?

  Sigh!

  It was such a great regret!

  In that instant, Xiao Li really wanted to get his arms broken by Sun Mo again.

  “We’re all teachers. There’s no need for us to fight over this little bit of money.”

  Sun Mo held Xiao Li back. “But Teacher Xiao, you look very dispirited. Given the way you are, I don’t think you’ll be able to pass the examination!”

  “Haha!”

  Xiao Li laughed in self-mockery and then put his fists together. “I’m embarrassed to say this, but I might have wasted Sun Mo’s efforts.”

  Li Ziqi’s eyes turned and she asked, “Teacher Xiao, aren’t you planning on participating in the examination?”

  “En!”

  Xiao Li nodded. “Putting aside the examination’s difficulty, with the way I am, it’s not suitable for me to take the examination. Even if I did, it’d just be a failure.”

  “It wouldn’t change much even if I waited another year!”

  Gu Xiuxun threw Sun Mo a secret glance. After the conflict, she had tried to find out about Xiao Li’s situation. She knew that he had lost failed times. If he were to fail another time, he’d never be able to advance to 2-star.

  Gu Xiuxun hoped that Xiao Li could temper himself for another year and check out the situation. But what would happen to Sun Mo?

  She felt a little anxious. Xiao Li seemed as if he wanted to give up.

  “There’s no more changes!”

  Xiao Li immediately broke into a self-mocking smile, rubbing his nose. “I plan on giving up my job as a great teacher. I’ll go to the countryside, buy a few cows, and be a cowherd!”


  Chapter 536: After I Become A 3-Star Great Teacher, I’ll Come to Marry You!

  “Meow meow meow?”

  Li Ziqi blinked her eyes, looking speechless. (A divine force realm cowherd? You’re too funny! Do you have a mine at home? Why are you wasting your talent like this?)

  (Have you seen through secular life? I heard that this is how those enlightened experts were. They put down all secular matters, returning to nature and focusing on cultivating Dao.)

  “I’ve thought it through. I’ll go to the countryside and be a private teacher, bringing cows out to graze and teach children to recognize words, enjoying life in the countryside. It’s quite good as well!”

  Xiao Li’s lips curled up into a smile. He started to develop a yearning for such a life.

  “Are you able to accept this?”

  Sun Mo asked.

  “So what if I can’t?”

  Xiao Li asked, “The most important thing is to have a clear recognition of oneself. Only then will we be able to find the right direction.”

  Swoosh!

  A golden glow suddenly lit up Xiao Li’s body. Next, light spots shot out.

  “.……”

  Gu Xiuxun was speechless. Why did Priceless Advice suddenly erupt? It seemed that this guy had seen through things and accepted his fate.

  “What you said isn’t wrong, but have you recognized yourself clearly?”

  Sun Mo was also influenced by this great teacher halo, almost believing Xiao Li. However, there were some things that he couldn’t hold in.

  “Moreover, even if you have, must you head in this direction? If I were you, even if I knew that I would fail, I would continue down the great teacher path. It’s because this is my aspiration and I’ll continue to defend it even if I’ll be heading to my death!”

  “Defend it…… even if it means death?”

  Hearing this, Xiao Li trembled.

  “Let me ask you this. What will happen to your students after you give up on the examination? They’ve trusted you for so many years but didn’t even get a chance to display their talent. Can you bear to see that?”

  Sun Mo continued to ask.

  “I’ve thought it through. I’ll entrust them to a good friend of mine. He’s also a great teacher!”

  Xiao Li explained.

  “From getting to know each other to become familiar with each other, students and teachers need to go through a process. It’d take at least a few months to several years. Who will account for the wasted time? What if your students can’t gain their new teacher’s liking?”

  Sun Mo raised another possibility.

  Xiao Li frowned.

  “Lastly, you’re also a ninth level divine force realm expert. How much sweat have you put in to come to this stage? Even if you can’t get the great teacher title, you can continue to teach and educate people. Go be a cowherd? Teach children to recognize words? Your knowledge will cry!”

  Sun Mo’s voice roused the deaf and enlightened the benighted, causing Xiao Li to be stunned.

  “Maybe I was wrong?”

  Xiao Li mumbled.

  Sun Mo allowed Xiao Li to immerse in his thoughts for a while before saying, “Teacher Xiao, have you noticed it? Your mental state isn’t steady again. This is your greatest problem.”

  “Huh?”

  Xiao Li was stunned.

  “As you’ve been through too many failures, you’ve become sensitive, unsettled, and doubtful of yourself. It then progressed to denying yourself. You might not have noticed it, but you’re already feeling that you’ll definitely be unable to pass the examination. That’s why you did so many irrational things.”

  “Your acceptance, your giving up, is just an act of self-consolation. Ask your own heart……”

  Sun Mo put out his index finger and poked it harshly into Xiao Li’s left chest. “Does it want to give up?”

  Xiao Li wore a pained expression on his face. He bit his lips and his body trembled, his fists gradually clenching tightly together. It was because Sun Mo had seen through his true intent.

  (Who wants to give up? I also want to become a 3-star great teacher, become a saint. I’ve also dreamed of having many students all over the world.)

  Ah!

  Xiao Li let out a loud cry. He suddenly raised his hand and hammered his head hard.

  The past that was unbearable to recall floated in his head again.

  “After I become a 3-star great teacher, I’ll come to marry you!”

  A spirited young man rode on a cow and shouted loudly to a young lady in the fields under the bright spring sun.

  To the young man, 1-star wasn’t worth mentioning and 2-star was the benchmark. Only 3-star could bring ‘her’ glory, causing her to be the envy amongst the neighbors.

  His departure continued for 20 years.

  After failing the 2-star examinations consecutively, the young man secretly returned to his hometown. He saw that young lady. Although she was no longer youthful, she continued to work in the fields, waiting for him.

  The young man stopped in his footsteps and didn’t meet her. His face tears-stricken. He hated himself for being so useless. Women of her age would already have bad rumors of not being able to marry.

  Thereafter, the young man returned to Jiang City. He swore that he must become a 3-star great teacher, then get the girl to marry him in great glory in front of everyone.

  However, fate was like a heartless wild dog, crazily biting and tearing the young man apart!

  He failed again!

  The young man, who had claimed that he was going to defeat the world in high spirits, became a failure in his forties. He didn’t dare to return to his hometown. He didn’t dare to think of her. He even hid the small wooden blade that the girl had gifted to him. It was because it would pierce his eyes!

  The girl had become a young lady, then a woman. She would eventually become an old lady. How many 40 years would a girl have?

  “Boohoohoo, I don’t wish for things to be like this either!”

  Xiao Li broke down in tears, banging his head against the wall until his head was bleeding.

  The maid was given a scare. Even Gu Xiuxun and Li Ziqi were surprised. Who would be held accountable if he were to die?

  Sun Mo looked at Xiao Li, his tone becoming harsh.

  “I don’t care how much grief you feel in your heart. I don’t care whom you’ve let down, or what you’ve missed out on. I only want to say that avoidance will never resolve problems. It’ll only make problems increasingly difficult!”

  Gu Xiuxun and Li Ziqi let out a sigh. This Xiao Li was clearly someone with a story!

  “Teacher Xiao, our relationship is considered one of no discord, no concord. Moreover, I’ve said what I should. In the end, I’ll give you a poetry that I often use to encourage myself!”

  Violent west wind.

  Wild geese crying in the foggy sky under the frosted morning moon.

  Frosted morning moon.

  Disorderly sound of horses’ hooves and deep sound of the military horn ringing.

  Majestic Loushan Pass was said to be tough as steel, crossing the top and starting over from the beginning.

  Starting over from the beginning.

  The mountains undulate like the waves of the ocean, the bright red sun sets everything in the color of blood! [2]

  Sun Mo only mentioned this poetry in passing, but Priceless Advice still erupted. After all, he wasn’t a narrow-minded and petty evil-doer who’d crush his opponent and render them unable to get back to their feet forever if they were to offend him.

  Looking at Xiao Li who had sunk deep down into the mud, Sun Mo also wished that he could get his act together.

  Golden light erupted, filling up the entire bedroom.

  Gu Xiuxun was alright after hearing this poetry. After all, as a genius, her path thus far had been smooth-sailing and she had been through too few obstacles. Therefore, she didn’t have a deep comprehension of the poetry.

  Of course, she also understood that Sun Mo had said another priceless advice.

  He was really someone that would make others green with envy.

  Li Ziqi, who was next to her, trembled. Her eyes turned red instantly and she had a strong urge to cry. She thought of all the rumors and criticisms she had been put through in the past.

  As the princess who was the most doted on by the Great Tang’s emperor, many people in the harem were jealous of Li Ziqi. They didn’t dare to say anything in person, but they’d say a lot of vicious words about her behind her back.

  Li Ziqi was clumsy and her motor skills were really bad. As a result, she had been rejected by a secondary saint. This was a great humiliation.

  In order to hide from these rumors, she had gone to stay temporarily at her aunt’s place in Jinling.

  “Majestic Loushan Pass was said to be tough as steel, crossing the top and starting over from the beginning!”

  The little sunny egg mumbled, “Well said!”

  Ding!

  Favorable impression points from Li Ziqi +1,000. Reverence (24,760/100,000).

  Li Ziqi looked toward Sun Mo, her gaze filled with admiration. (Teacher, I won’t give up! I’ll definitely let those people who are waiting to watch me make a fool of myself know that I’m the best!)

  Xiao Li was undoubtedly the one who felt the strongest impact from the poetry. It was as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning, yet also like he had been lit up by intense flames that could burn the plains. A strong battle will burned in his heart again.

  (That’s right. What are the gazes of humiliation, despise, and contemptuous gazes I have been put through compared to the criticisms the girl who has been waiting for me was subject to? She is still persisting on, but what about me? My giving up is a betrayal to the decades of waiting she has been through. It’s the greatest blow and humiliation to her!)

  “I must get the 2-star great teacher title this year and then return to the countryside to look for her! I want to make up for my mistake!”

  Xiao Li’s gaze was no longer at a loss. The changes to his mental state and the agitation of his emotions brought a resonance to the spirit qi in his body.

  Boom!

  The surrounding spirit qi started to seethe, forming a spirit qi tornado on top of Xiao Li’s head and channeling into his body.

  “This is…… breaking through realm!”

  Gu Xiuxun was stunned, but she soon understood what was going on. Xiao Li had stagnated at his current cultivation realm due to his mentality. Right now, after having his thoughts straightened out by Sun Mo’s Priceless Advice, he suddenly broke through his bottleneck.

  Xiao Li was now at the ninth level of the divine force realm. If he were to go further up, he’d be at the longevity realm. Striving for a breakthrough to such a great realm was a great impetus and it’d also require a tremendous amount of spirit qi.

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  Spirit qi continued to seethe like tidal waves, and the wooden windows and doors swung amidst the impact. They looked like weak willow trees, releasing clanking sounds.

  “What’s going on?”

  The great teachers in the hotel who heard the commotion came over to check things out.

  20 minutes later, the attempt ended.

  Xiao Li opened his eyes and turned his head to see Sun Mo and Gu Xiuxun keeping watch for him as he made his attempt, not wanting him to be disturbed.

  “Teacher Gu, thank you!”

  Xiao Li got off the bed and first thanked Gu Xiuxun. He then went up to Sun Mo and knelt.

  “Xiao Li has received Teacher Sun’s guidance today and arrived at a great life comprehension. I have nothing to repay you. If there’s anything I can help you with in the future, I’ll definitely go to the end of the world for you.”

  After saying that, Xiao Li made three loud kowtows.

  Ding!

  Favorable impression points from Xiao Li +1,000. Respect (1,520/10,000).

  “Teacher Xiao, there’s no need for that. We’re teachers, so preaching, educating, and resolving doubts are part of our job!”

  Sun Mo helped Xiao Li up. “I hope that Teacher Xiao’s wishes can be fulfilled and that you’ll pass the examination!”

  What should be done was done. Sun Mo bade his farewell.

  Creak!

  The door opened.

  Swoosh!

  The great teacher examinees who were gathered along the corridor backed off and saw Sun Mo walking out. Next to him was Xiao Li, who was bowing slightly and sending him off.

  He looked so modest!

  Just like a junior facing a respected senior.

  (Is there a need to go to this degree? Both of you are 1-star great teachers, and your realm is at the ninth level of the divine force realm. You’re seven levels higher than Sun Mo.)

  Sun Mo and Xiao Li’s personal information was well-known after the conflict broke out between the two of them.

  “Teacher Sun, take care!”

  Xiao Li bowed down deeply and only straightened his back after Sun Mo had completely left the corridor. He then looked at the people around, cupped his hands at them, and then closed the door to his room.

  Everyone outside wore stunned expressions.

  “What the hell? How did two people, who were still fighting bitterly two days ago, suddenly become so close?”

  Someone felt perplexed.

  “Hey, did you guys notice? Xiao Li’s arms are healed!”

  “So I didn’t see anything wrong. He has really recovered. But I recall that his injuries were very serious and that his bones were broken in over ten spots!”

  “Could the God Hands rumor be real?”

  The spectators whispered amongst themselves, feeling curious about what had taken place in the room. After all, before Sun Mo entered, Xiao Li’s arms were still broken.

  “Wait a minute, the impetus from the breakthrough and the amount of spirit qi are both tremendous. Doesn’t that mean that Xiao Li is already at the longevity realm?”

  Someone suddenly thought of a question.

  “That can’t be, right? Is it so easy to rise to the longevity realm?”

  “How can we explain it otherwise? It can’t be that Sun Mo was the one making a breakthrough, right?”

  “It’s the longevity realm! It’d be worth breaking my arms ten times if it means that I can reach it!”

  The great teacher examinees mumbled amongst themselves. They had initially mocked Xiao Li as trash, not even able to win against Sun Mo. But now, they suddenly felt a little envious of him.

  As it was known to everyone, the higher one’s realm was, the harder it’d be to rise. The hurdles between two great realms were the most difficult to cross.

  The divine force realm would only produce divine force, but the longevity realm meant that one’s lifespan would be increased. Who in this world wouldn’t want immortality?

  In the cultivation system, the longevity realm was also a strong realm that could crush those at the divine force realm.

  “F*ck, we have another strong opponent now!”

  Many people started to feel upset. There was a sparring section in the 2-star great teacher examination. Who’d be able to win against someone at the longevity realm?

  “Sun Mo is really bringing harm to others without any benefit to himself!”

  Someone complained.

  “Forget it. You should be more worried about the fact that Sun Mo can take part in the examination. With this, two spots are gone.”

  After the person said this, many people sighed, feeling even greater pressure.

  The rules for this year’s examination had been announced. Unlike how it was for previous years, the title wasn’t just given if one passed. The selection would be based on ratio.

  This meant that even if one were to pass, if there were too many great teachers with better scores, they’d take up all the spots and you’d still fail. ……

  Xiao Li sat in front of the round table in his bedroom, looking at the teacup in front of him. For some reason, he didn’t feel anything in his heart.

  By right, rising up to the longevity realm was a great thing to celebrate on one’s cultivation path. Xiao Li had been stuck at his previous realm for four years.

  But now, he only felt a light happiness. His heart was filled up with the beautiful images of the young lady working in the fields.

  “This time around, I’ll definitely not let you down again!”

  Xiao Li clenched his fists.

  Bang bang bang!

  The sound of door knocking rang out.

  “Teacher!”

  The one who spoke up was Xiao Li’s personal disciple.

  “Come in!”

  Xiao Li replied.

  The door opened and three students entered. When they saw that Xiao Li’s arms were as good as new, they were instantly surprised and then felt overjoyed.

  They had thought that it was over for their teacher and that their life would be a goner as well. They didn’t expect for the tables to turn around.

  “Teacher Sun has just healed my arms. If you guys encounter him in the future, you must treat him with respect and not hostility!”

  Xiao Li warned.

  His three personal disciples exchanged a glance, suppressed the astonishment in their hearts, then bowed and said, “Student understands.”

  “Teacher, have you leveled up to the longevity realm?”

  The youngest student couldn’t hold it in and ask. He was worried about Xiao Li and had been waiting for very long. It was just that he didn’t dare to enter the room. Therefore, he had heard what the other spectators had said.

  [1] A poetry by Mao Zedong in 1935.
