Chapter 40 Tough Xia Lu
Gao Ge asks Yue Xincheng to keep practicing the Qi conduction and then walks towards Meng Jing.
“What’s wrong?”
Meng Jing looks at him and says in a low voice, “As for the Qi conduction that you taught Yue Xincheng, it seems that I can practice it too.”
Gao Ge grins and doesn’t doubt it.
He has given the treasure medicine brought from Mount Duanlong to Meng Jing to eat, so some of her martial meridians must have been opened.
To his surprise, when he was teaching Yue Xincheng, Meng Jing was just listening to him randomly but she can comprehend it immediately and sense the difference. Gao Ge cannot help thinking much about it.
He reaches out his hand to grab Meng Jing’s arm.
“Ow, what are you doing?” Meng Jing is embarrassed, “Yue Xincheng is still here.”
Yue Xincheng stretches out his neck, “How about me leaving for a while? Emm, I can bring you a bed as well. I took a glance just now only to see the wooden bed inside the house is too old.”
Gao Ge takes up a fruit to throw at him.
Yue Xincheng catches it and chuckles.
“Don’t worry. I am just checking how many martial meridians you have opened.” Gao Ge comforts her.
Meng Jing nods her head.
Not for a while, Gao Ge’s facial expression changes.
“What’s the matter? Is my aptitude so poor?” Meng Jing asks.
According to what Gao Ge has mentioned, she has understood something about practicing and aura recovery.
Gao Ge’s eyes become complex and then he stands up slowly.
He walks towards the pear tree and hits the tree with his head.
“I am the stupidest one. I am the stupidest one...”
Meng Jing is at a loss whether to cry or to laugh.
Yue Xincheng comes near him out of curiosity.
“Boss, what’s wrong?”

“Yeah, that’s right!”
Gao Ge points at Meng Jing, “My girl just ate some fruit and learnt a little Qi conduction. Consequently, she has opened 33 martial meridians.”
Saying that, he keeps hitting the tree.
“I am the stupidest one...”
Yue Xincheng instantly joins Gao Ge’s hitting the tree.
“I am the second stupidest...”
To be honest.
Gao Ge doesn’t feel any kindness of Yue Xincheng.
Meng Jing has a smile on her face.
It seems that her aptitude is not poor, which is good.
“Is having 33 opened martial meridians fairly good?” Meng Jing asks.
Gao Ge is speechless and wants to weep.
If her level is only counted as fairly good, 99% of the students in the Cultivation Academy will need to come here to hit the tree with their head.
“You continue practicing the Qi conduction first and don’t need to learn martial arts for now.” Gao Ge says.
Meng Jing nods her head.
Gao Ge steps aside and takes out his phone. He finds the number of Meng Fang and calls him.
Meng Fang is the one who checked Gao Ge’s and Yue Xincheng’s martial meridians at the Cultivation Academy.
Getting the call from Gao Ge, he is a bit surprised but he puts him through quickly.
“Mr. Meng, I’ve got someone who has opened 33 martial meridians here.”
“Oh really? Is it Yue Xincheng? He made it so fast?”
“No, it’s my girlfriend.”
Meng Fang is speechless.
On the other side of the call, nobody says anything.
Then Meng Fang says in haste, “I’ll be there tomorrow.”
Saying that, the call is cut off.
Gao Ge gives a smile too.
In this case, Meng Jing will get into the Cultivation Academy soon, without needing to wait for the Academy becoming popular all over Huaxia.
It is surely a good thing. Practicing is not easy. Doing it faster than others cannot be a luckier thing more.
As to Meng Fang, Gao Ge doesn’t need to worry at all. Unless there is something wrong with the management of the Cultivation Academy, they will surely take good care of talents like Meng Jing. She must be able to make it into Class Heaven.
At the time, the door of the yard is pushed away.
A girl in a white coat with a braid on her head walks in.
She comes in with slightly light steps. With blood on her white coat, she looks a bit pale.
Gao Ge is stunned.
“This place is not bad.” The tall and thin girl walks inside and then looks around, “Indeed, what a nice place!”
“What happened to you? Is there anyone trying to kill you?” Gao Ge and Yue Xincheng go forward.
Xia Lu glances at them and then looks at Meng Jing.
It is the first time the two girls have met. They nod the head and smile at each other, which is kind of a greeting.
However, Meng Jing’s eyes are filled with ineffable worry.
She follows them subconsciously and stands beside Gao Ge. She doesn’t touch him and only stands rather close to him. With such a gesture, she is proclaiming her relationship with Gao Ge.
Of course, Meng Jing doesn’t mean to do this on purpose. For her, it is only a subconscious reaction.
Xia Lu sits on the stone bench in the yard and massages her knees.
“Since you ask me help you in Jiangnan City, I have done some simple research. I find out that you have conflicted with Ning Shi from the Ning Family. Although I don’t know what’s going on between you two, that must be the reason why you ask me to come here, right?” Xia Lu asks.
Gao Ge nods his head.
He knows that the girl is smart.
Besides that, Gao Ge is a bit surprised at Xia Lu’s information channels. She should know so clearly about what happens in Jiangnan City.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Hence, I went to the Ning Family after I got off the plane. It happened Ning Shi was awake and sent home for a rest, so I broke his arms and legs. The old man of the Ning Family kept making noises so I beat the bricks off him. Then I got into a serious fight.”
Gao Ge is speechless.
“They fought against you for only an old man and Ning Shi?” Gao Ge fails to understand.
“Yeah, I also feel they must be tired of living.” Xia Lu sneers, “I will go over there after I recover.”
“What’s the name of the old man you beat the bricks off?” Yue Xincheng asks in a low voice.
Xia Lu throws a glance at him and thinks for a while. She shakes her head, saying, “I don’t know. I only heard someone named Ning Chen calling him Grandpa.”
Yue Xincheng slaps his thigh.
Gao Ge looks at him. He knows a little about the Ning Family but not much. The Yue Family is also one of the three ancient martial arts families. As to the condition of the Ning Family, Yue Xincheng must know more than him.
“The old man must be Ning Fu.”
“Ning Fu? Who is that?”
“The former master of the Ning Family...” Yue Xincheng is about to cry.
Gao Ge takes a tumble.
By rights, Xia Lu is not the one the Ning Family dare mess with.
It can tell from the attitude of Zhao Jin.
Therefore, for only Ning Shi, the Ning Family will not dare to fight against Xia Lu. Now the situation is changed. Since their former master gets beaten the bricks off by Xia Lu, they must fight back for sure.
Otherwise, they will lose face!
Gao Ge covers his face with his hand and squats down on the ground, feeling like weeping but having no tears.
“Sorry. I came here to fix troubles for you but unexpectedly, I make it worse.” Xia Lu says.
Yet, Xia Lu’s face doesn’t imply any sign of being sorry.
Especially her casual tone of speaking. She speaks as if she only killed an ant of the Ning Family.
What is toughness?
This is what toughness is!
Yue Xincheng admires her so much while Gao Ge can only stamp his feet.
It seems that by far, they have no choice but to be tough.
