The fourth of the Thirty-Six Stratagems in Sun Tzu's Art of War is to wait at ease for the enemy to tire themselves out.
Chu Chu naturally didn't understand military strategy, but she knew that when masters sparred, ordinary moves wouldn't differentiate between them; what mattered was the depth of their inner strength and the ebb and flow of power.
She was now lying comfortably on the ground, while He Yunxiao had to keep his right hand firmly pressed down to prevent her from breaking free at any moment.
This is bound to be short-lived.
When he gets tired, he'll break free on his own, or he'll be smart enough to admit defeat sooner.
In any case, victory will surely be ours.
He could easily defeat a grandmaster-level martial artist, so how could he possibly lose to He Yunxiao, a mere eighth-rank martial artist?
Just as Chu Chu was comfortably waiting for He Yunxiao to admit defeat, that clueless man suddenly started singing.
"Sunshine always follows the storm, and clear skies appear above the clouds. Cherish every moment that moves you..."
Chu Chu had never heard of such a thing before, and frowned as she asked, "What are you doing?"
He Yunxiao, looking smug and confident, said with a smile, "Let's sing."
He Yunxiao played the song "Sunshine Always Comes After the Storm" during his middle school years, which can be said to be closely related to his "psychological and physical torment."
He Yunxiao tightened his grip with his left hand, pressing down firmly on Chu Chu's right hand to prevent her from struggling desperately in a desperate attempt to escape.
Then he brought his face close to Chu Chu's and said in a devilish voice, "Lord Chu Chu, how about we call it a draw? I apologize to you, and you won't kill Fan Ziruo."
Chu Chu snorted coldly, "Impossible."
He Yunxiao was overjoyed to see her like this.
Last time, during the Spring Breeze Pavilion's falling flowers event, I tricked Chu Chu and got a promise from her. This time, I'm determined to squeeze a lot of money out of her!
Putting everything else aside, she definitely can't kill Fan Ziruo.
"Lord Chuchu, do you know that there is an acupoint called Shuifen on the upper abdomen?"
Chu Chu's expression remained calm.
As a top expert, she knew every part of her body intimately. She naturally knew about the Shuifen acupoint.
This point is not very important to martial arts practitioners, so she didn't understand why He Yunxiao was mentioning this acupoint.
He Yunxiao continued, "This acupoint is not usually very useful. Sometimes, it is used as an adjunct to treat abdominal pain, nausea, and spleen deficiency."
Chu Chu frowned.
She had already sensed something was wrong.
After going around in circles, He Yunxiao finally revealed his terrifying purpose: "By the way, it also has another inconspicuous use: diuresis."
The usually arrogant Chu Chu finally showed a slight change in expression.
The novel and biography say that immortals can abstain from grains and remain untouched by worldly affairs. Although she possesses superb martial arts skills, she is still a mortal, and some worldly matters are unavoidable.
She only felt He Yunxiao's large hand touch her upper abdomen, and then a wisp of pure internal energy emanated from his fingers, constantly stimulating that shameful acupoint.
It works very well.
Feeling the strange sensations emanating from her body, Chu Chu instinctively tried to use her internal energy to counter He Yunxiao's internal energy and stop his shameful behavior.
However, He Yunxiao noticed this immediately.
He Yunxiao whispered devilishly in Chu Chu's ear, "Is Lady Chu Chu going to use her inner strength? I remember you promised you wouldn't. You're not going to go back on your word, are you?"
Chu Chu turned her face to the other side and said through gritted teeth, "No."
"Your word is your bond, and Yunxiao truly admires you."
After He Yunxiao finished speaking, he increased the pressure on his hands.
A moment later, this martial arts master, who was the best in the world, was clenching his teeth and pressing his legs together tightly, not daring to make any unnecessary movements.
He Yunxiao felt that it was about time and he couldn't push him too far. So he stopped channeling his internal energy into his hands.
He could clearly feel Chu Chu beneath him let out a huge sigh of relief.
He Yunxiao pleaded gently, "Chuchu, is it alright if we don't kill Fan Ziruo?"
Chu Chu was not convinced and said, "If you dare to let go of me, I will kill her right now."
Ouch, you little rascal, you can't hold it in anymore, yet you still dare to be so tough.
He channeled his inner force into his hands once more.
Chu Chu was even more indignant and said, "He Yunxiao, if you dare to let go of me, I will kill you too."
Increase efforts.
A moment later, He Yunxiao watched as the world's number one expert, the arrogant Chu Chu, bit her lip tightly, a blush rising on her cheeks.
To be honest, although He Yunxiao didn't like Chu Xiaoxiao as much as he liked his wife Nan Zhu, he had to admit that Chu Xiaoxiao was very beautiful, and Chu Xiaoxiao with a blush on her face was a little bit cute.
In particular, the one with the red glow now is that domineering Chu Chu, who once wanted to kill him outright.
Now beneath him, she bit her lip, her face flushed with shyness...
I can't think about it anymore, I can't think about it anymore.
The Peach Blossom Spring.
During the Taiyuan era of the Jin Dynasty, a fisherman from Wuling made his living by fishing. He followed a stream, forgetting how far he had traveled…
The internal energy ceased once more.
He Yunxiao coaxed her gently, "Chuchu, I'll consider it a win. I apologize. Just don't kill Fan Ziruo, okay?"
The blush on Chu Chu's face hadn't faded yet. She glared at He Yunxiao and said fiercely, "Don't even think about it!"
Damn it!
He Yunxiao couldn't understand why Chu Chu was so determined to kill Fan Ziruo, since Fan Ziruo had been so easily won over and she hadn't interacted with Chu Fan much in the past two days.
One of the three great illusions in life: she likes me.
He Yunxiao thought it was impossible; Chu Xiaoxiao was the "true" female lead, she could only like Chu Fan, she couldn't possibly like anyone else. After checking the favorability rating again, He Yunxiao felt relieved.
