Sneak Attack
What Chu Xiao was proud of was not his good academic results, but his martial arts and medical skills. His medical skills were taught by his grandfather, and it could be said that he had inherited the teachings of his ancestors. Moreover, the theoretical studies he had done in university over the past few years had allowed his medical skills to advance by leaps and bounds.
Chu Xiao's martial arts were taught to him by a mysterious person when he was young. However, Chu Xiao's master was a figure who was like a god on land. After secretly teaching Chu Xiao martial arts for three years, he drifted away when Chu Xiao was fifteen years old and was never seen again.
Chu Xiao was a northerner, and his ancestors were all practitioners of medicine. He was widely known for his good deeds. Chu Xiao's grandfather, Chu Qian, was famous in the Chinese medicine world decades ago for his miraculous acupuncture skills.
However, Chu Xiao's father, Chu Jianghan, had been a playboy since he was young and did not have any interest in medicine. He dropped out of school when he was in his teens and sold jewelry. When he was in his twenties, he made a fortune and became a famous nouveau riche.
However, Chu Xiao had never been fond of his father, who was a billionaire. He thought that his father was just one of those unscrupulous businessmen who got lucky and made a fortune through trickery. Ever since Chu Xiao was sensible, he had lived in the countryside with his grandfather. He studied medicine during the day and martial arts with that mysterious master at night. Since junior high, Chu Xiao had been earning money to support himself. He had never asked his rich father for a single cent.
Chu Xiao had an extremely high level of comprehension since he was young. He had completely inherited his grandfather's medical skills, and his acupuncture skills were even more superb. A few years ago, when he was treating patients in the countryside, many difficult and miscellaneous diseases could be cured by his 'needle'.
Chu Xiao's master had left after teaching him for three years. Chu Xiao did not even know the background and identity of his master.
Although his master had left, Chu Xiao did not put aside the martial arts that he had learned. Instead, he practiced diligently every day. Even when he came from the north to the south to study at Linjiang City's university, Chu Xiao had also found a quiet place like Yufeng Mountain in the suburbs to practice his martial arts.
Jade Peak Mountain was not short, but in a short period of time, Chu Xiao had climbed to the top. His aura was still as stable as ever. After ten years of hard work, Chu Xiao's fist techniques and internal energy had reached a considerable level. A year ago, he had broken through from the level of open force to the level of hidden force. With such skills, even in the vast martial arts world of China, he could be ranked among the experts.
Once he reached the top of the mountain, Chu Xiao began to practice his fist techniques. To someone who had practiced martial arts all year round, climbing the mountain just now was not considered a warm-up.
Chu Xiao's moves were sometimes fast and sometimes slow. When he was fast, he was like a tiger descending from the mountain. When he was slow, he was like a gentle breeze blowing through the willows. Every move had the bearing of a master. The set of fist techniques that Chu Xiao was practicing was a unique technique that his master had taught him. It was a combination of Xingyi, Taiji, and the Eight Trigrams.
Chu Xiao was already very familiar with his fist technique. Ever since he had broken through from the level of open force to the level of hidden force, Chu Xiao had paid special attention to the cultivation of internal force because his muscles and bones had been trained to be extremely strong. Chu Xiao cultivated both medicine and martial arts, and the Taiyi Divine Needle, a unique acupuncture technique passed down from his ancestors, required internal energy to be injected into it. Therefore, this also required Chu Xiao to have vigorous internal energy.
After practicing a set of fist techniques, Chu Xiao sat upright on a large rock as usual. He closed his eyes and focused his mind as he began to cultivate his internal arts.
Internal energy trained one's internal organs and meridians. Chu Xiao was proficient in medicine and was familiar with all the meridians in the human body. Therefore, cultivating internal energy was twice the result with half the effort.
Chu Xiao sat quietly for a while before he suddenly opened his eyes. A leaf was rapidly and silently attacking his back, piercing straight into his major acupuncture point.
"Someone is ambushing us."
That was the first thought that came to Chu Xiao's mind. Furthermore, Chu Xiao knew that the person who had ambushed him was extremely skilled in martial arts. His inner strength was vigorous and he had used it very cleverly. This was because the leaf that had pierced his back was flying very quickly, but it did not make any sound. This was definitely a technique that only an expert could use.
Although Chu Xiao had opened his eyes, he did not turn around. The leaf was less than half a foot away from his back, so he did not have the time to turn around.
At this critical moment, Chu Xiao stretched out his hand and patted the rock he was sitting on, and his body suddenly soared into the air, dodging the sneak attack of the leaf.
"Who are you? Stand out! Judging from your concealed weapon technique, you are also an expert. How dare you shamelessly launch a sneak attack?”
Chu Xiao avoided the leaves and landed on a rock.
Just as Chu Xiao finished speaking, a tall and sturdy masked man in black floated out from under the moonlight. He leaped onto the rock Chu Xiao was standing on and faced Chu Xiao.
Chu Xiao saw that this person's martial arts were unfathomable, so he focused his attention and did not dare to be careless. However, he vaguely felt that this masked man's eyes were familiar.
"I don't need to sneak attack you.”
The masked man in black snorted and threw a punch at Chu Xiao's chest.
