In the dead of night, the area around the old house fell silent.
A tall, thin young man sneaked into the courtyard, carrying a gasoline can.
The visitor was Yu Xiaoyu's brother, Yu Liang.
Yu Liang's eyes were fierce. Yesterday, the old woman died, and Yu Xiaoyu bullied his mother. He tried to stop her but was beaten up by Yu Xiaoyu instead, which made Yu Liang feel very embarrassed.
"Yu Xiaoyu, if you dare to hit me, you'll have to pay the price."
Yu Liang poured gasoline inside and outside the old house, then onto the door of the woodshed, and then climbed a ladder to smash the skylight.
Yu Liang looked down and saw Yu Xiaoyu lying unconscious on the ground. He smiled and poured the last of the gasoline onto Yu Xiaoyu.
Yu Xiaoyu was awakened by the pungent smell of gasoline. She opened her eyes and saw Yu Liang on the sunroof.
Yu Liang took out a lighter, lit it, and threw it into the skylight. He then quickly climbed down to the ground, threw the ladder into the old house, and lit a match, throwing it onto the gasoline.
A raging fire broke out immediately, and Yu Xiaoyu, too weak to make a sound, was burned alive.
Yu Liang also quickly ran away.
Hell is empty, all the devils are here on earth.
There weren't many neighbors around the old house; it was all old houses, inhabited mostly by elderly people. By the time the neighbors discovered the fire, it had already engulfed the entire yard.
Without surveillance footage, there's no way to investigate.
Flames soared into the sky, seemingly reflecting the overwhelming resentment of a young girl trapped within the inferno.
Even if the resentment or other evil energy is very strong, once the body is burned before death, there is no longer any possibility of it.
That's why cremation is so popular now.
...
At five o'clock on Saturday morning, Yanluo secretly dragged Tu Keke out of bed.
Although Tu Keke felt resentful at being woken up so early by her uncle, she was relieved to hear that her uncle was there to teach her cultivation.
Then let's be merciful and forgive your uncle.
After washing up, Tu Keke came to the backyard. Yan Luo was sitting cross-legged on the ground. When she saw Tu Keke, Yan Luo waved to her.
"Come, sit down."
Tu Keke excitedly sat cross-legged next to Yan Luo.
"Uncle, shall we begin practicing swordsmanship?"
Yanluo picked up the "Book of the Four Seasons" from the side.
"No rush. If you want to practice swordsmanship, you must first gather your qi. And if you want to gather your qi, you must first learn the techniques."
Tu Keke took the "Book of Four Seasons" and opened the first page to begin reading.
"After chaos, the world began, giving birth to the four seasons, which then changed."
"Spring, when all things revive..."
Tu Keke read it carefully, word by word.
Then, without realizing it, he closed his eyes and placed his hands in the navel chakra mudra.
Her chest began to rise and fall rhythmically. Tu Keke looked inward at her body and saw a dark green thread of energy continuously entering her lower abdomen, gathering at her dantian, and forming a ball of energy.
Yan Luo looked at Tu Keke in surprise. It seemed that her second niece was quite talented.
Sensing Qi is the first step in practicing Qigong. Being able to sense Qi proves that you are adaptable to this practice. The mind selects the Qi that enters the Dantian according to the incantation.
With this energy entering the body, one can become stronger.
The stronger one's Qi (vital energy), the stronger one becomes; the weaker one's Qi, the weaker one becomes.
To unleash a powerful sword move, you need luck.
Tu Keke slowly opened her eyes. She felt warm inside her body, filled with power.
"Uncle, have I been accepted as a beginner?"
Yan Luo gently patted Tu Keke's head and smiled, "Keke is very talented. She has just entered the beginner level. In the future, she should practice more techniques to make her internal energy more abundant and pure."
"Every sword strike you make will be extremely powerful."
Tu Keke grinned foolishly.
Yan Luo got up, jumped onto the third-floor gym window, and took down two fine steel longswords.
"Now, you will familiarize yourself with the sword."
Tu Keke stretched out her hands, and just as Yan Luo handed her the sword, Tu Keke let go of it.
"So heavy?!"
Yan Luo laughed and said, "If you channel your energy to your waist, you can lift it up with a little effort."
Tu Keke's talent is truly extraordinary.
She grasped the technique simply by listening to Yan Luo's description. She transferred the dark green energy from her dantian to her waist, and with a single effort, she lifted the eighty-pound longsword with one hand and held it firmly in her grasp.
Yan Luo nodded happily.
“Great, great! Coco, your next task is to practice your sword swings and get used to the feeling.”
"Also, you must work hard to cultivate your skills, otherwise you will be unable to wield your sword when your energy is depleted."
"To use a sword for an extended period of time, one must have a large capacity for magnanimity."
"Now, start swinging your sword. Even if you run out of energy, you must use the strength of your body to swing your sword."
"Make sure your body remembers this weight."
Although Tu Keke raised her sword, she felt that swinging it was somewhat difficult.
One, two, three...
Tu Keke held the sword with both hands and began to swing it one sword at a time.
Having just begun cultivating, and with not much internal energy accumulated, Tu Keke was already exhausted after unleashing nearly a hundred sword strikes.
The sword slipped from his hand and fell to the ground with a clang.
Exhausted, Tu Keke collapsed to her knees, panting heavily, feeling difficulty breathing.
It feels like someone squeezed your lungs hard; Tu Keke feels a burning pain in her lungs now.
Yan Luo chuckled a few times and channeled his own energy into Tu Keke's body, allowing the little girl to recover.
After resting for a while, Tu Keke stood up, bent over, and tried to lift the sword with her own strength.
Unfortunately, although she managed to lift it, with Tu Keke's current strength, she was still far from being able to wield an 80-pound sword.
Yanluo took the sword from Tu Keke's hand.
"Don't rush, take a rest, circulate your internal energy using the cultivation technique to regulate your Qi, and continue cultivating."
"Not only will your Qi increase, but your physical fitness will also become stronger."
"But at the same time, you should also do more strength training so that your body can better withstand the increasing strength."
Tu Keke adjusted her breathing and lay down on the lawn, exhausted.
"Did you go through the same thing?"
Yanluo caught a glimpse of the girl's burning gaze and smiled faintly.
"Back then, my uncle followed his master in cultivation, relying solely on physical strength without the aid of any techniques."
"The Book of the Four Seasons is not suitable for you, Uncle. This technique requires mastering four different types of Qi. The dark green Qi thread in your body right now is [Summer].
"With the cultivation of the changing seasons, mastering the energy of the four seasons and condensing the four types of energy in the dantian will make you extremely powerful."
"Like my uncle's master, her Four Seasons [Winter] is especially powerful; her Frosty Sword has slain countless powerful enemies."
Yan Luo casually swung his longsword, which emitted a series of sword sounds.
Tu Keke's beautiful eyes widened in surprise.
"Back then, my uncle didn't have any martial arts techniques to help him. He had to swing his sword five thousand times a day. It was heavier than this sword. He couldn't eat until he finished swinging it."
Tu Keke asked curiously, "Did you practice any cultivation techniques later?"
Yanluo nodded and said, "My uncle later practiced the martial arts left behind by my great-grandfather."
Tu Keke felt as if a completely new world was unfolding before her eyes.
Was Great-Grandpa also very capable?
“Very impressive. My great-grandfather was a hero of Longxia, but the kind of hero who lived in the shadows.”
Tu Keke's light blue eyes revealed pride.
"Great-grandfather is so amazing, and my uncle is so amazing too. Who will be just as amazing next?"
"It has to be me, the heroine Tu Keke!"
"Hahaha—"
