A Dish Best Served Cold 1416-1417

 Chapter 1416

"Qi Tian, what are you doing here?"


        "Haha~"


        "Quick, inside please."


        When he heard that Chu Qitian had come, the young master of the Jones family, Mike Jones, came out to welcome him with a smile. The Jones family's eldest young master, Mike Jones, came out with a smile to welcome him.


        Mike Jones, the youngest son of the Jones family, smiled and came out to welcome him. Jones has a cheerful personality and has always been fond of making friends.


        In addition, the two of them asked the three families of the Truman young master, usually have more contacts, and now see Chu Qitian arrived, naturally enthusiastic, pulling Chu Qitian to go to the hall.


        "Qitian, don't leave tonight."


        "Let's eat here tonight, I've just got a few bottles of good wine here, let's try it together tonight?"


        In the hall, Mike. Jones smiled and said.


        Chu Qitian returned, "Mike, we'll talk about the drinking later."


        "I came here to visit my sister She."


        "I heard that my younger sister suddenly disappeared some time ago, and she's just recently found her way back."


        "It's nothing serious, right?"


        Chu Qi Tian said with concern.


        However, Mike . Jones was slightly startled at the news: "Did you come all the way here to see my sister?"


        Mike. Jones was surprised.


        When she was studying at the Truman College of Nobility, her sister was also unpleasant, and she was repeatedly looked down upon, and everyone ignored her, thinking she was a monster and sometimes bullied.


        So, in desperation, Michael Jones' father took Angie to the school. He also said that he was not happy with his sister, who had been treated badly by everyone, and that she was a monster and sometimes bullied.


        For many years, apart from her family, Angie had almost no friends.


        The only person who occasionally visited An Qi was one of Tang Yun's disciples, Meng Wan Yu.


        Now Chu Qitian suddenly came to visit his sister, Mike Jones naturally felt surprised. Naturally, Jones felt surprised.


        "What?"


        "Brother Mike, is it inconvenient?"


        Seeing Mike. Jones' strange appearance, Chuchiton asked.


        Mike. Jones hurriedly shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "No, it's just some surprise."


        I'm just a little surprised. "However, my sister was able to get Qitian's attention, and I, as a brother, am also happy for her."


        "You wait, I'll go in and call her."


        Mike. As he laughed, Jones turned around and walked toward the family's backyard.


        The sun was blazing.


        In the sunlight, a tiny little girl, but dragging nearly a hundred pounds of weight, was on the practice field with the family's guards, doing physical training.


        Beads of sweat, like rainwater, slid down her pretty face.


        On her forehead and wrist, red swellings and bloodstains could be seen that had not yet dissipated.


        They were scratches from falling on the ground while running.


        The family's guards, who were also training on the side, saw the lady in such a state, but all of them felt intolerant.


        "Miss, you should give up."


        "Your golden body and jade body, how can you endure this pain?"


        "If you are exhausted, those of us who are servants will be blamed if we die."


        .....


        "Yes, Miss."


        "You should stop practicing..."


        "What do you think, what's the matter with you?"


        "What's at stake, we'll help you pit."


        "What's the danger, we'll help you fight to the death."


        "With the whole family as your backing, why do you put yourself through this toil?"


        In the family, a group of attendants advised.


        However, An Qi would not listen.


        She gritted her teeth, stubbornly endured the physical strain and pain, but a stubbornly low roar was emitted under her red lips.


        "If you can suffer, I can suffer too!"


        "I have to learn martial arts, I have to learn killing techniques~"


        "I also want to have the power to be able to help Brother Van."


        ....


        Stubborn. There was an inexplicable determination in her voice.


        No one knows what this little girl in front of her had gone through during the time she was missing.


        Why, when she was so weak and tender, after she came back, she seemed to have changed into a different person.


        Someone who was so afraid of hardship and hated martial dao so much, but now turned to have such a persistent pursuit of martial dao cultivation.


        "Hey~"


        Seeing that Angie was not at all receptive to persuasion, the crowd had to stop, and could only continue training at ease.


        "Huh?"


        "Young Master, you're here?"


        At this time, Mike Jones came over. Jones came over, and when the crowd saw it, they greeted him respectfully.


        "Well."


        "Where's Angie?"


        "Still fooling around?"


        Mike. Jones nodded, then asked.


        "Yes, young master."


        "You should persuade Miss, if this continues, Miss's body, I'm afraid, will not be able to hold up."


        Many people bitterly echoed.


        "Okay, I know. You guys continue training, leave the rest to me."


        Mike. Jones waved his hand and let the men continue their daily training tasks.


        And he walked over to Angie's direction and smiled, "Angie, take a break, my brother has made you your favorite pastry, come with me to try it first?"


        .....


        "And the custom-made dress for you, too, has arrived, oh?"


        "I had that custom made for you from Europe, and it's your favorite pink color."


        .....


        Mike. Jones couldn't stop seducing his sister, just like coaxing a child.


        In the past, the silly girl in front of him would have jumped up and down and gone with him.


        But now, Mike. The company's main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers.


        "Angie, when the hell are you going to make a scene?"


        "Father and I, no matter what, will never agree to you getting involved in the martial arts."


        "How dangerous and dangerous is the martial path, with nine deaths."


        "It's simply not for a delicate woman like you to get involved in?"


        "I advise you to die for this!"


        Mike. Jones finally ran out of patience and sternly rebuked Angie again.


        "You're lying!"


        "My Aunt Tang was able to learn martial arts and became the master of the Chu Gate."


        "Sister Evening Yu is also a woman, and she has studied the martial arts just as well."


        "Why shouldn't I be able to?"


        Angie growled stubbornly.


        "It's not the same!" Mike Jones said coldly, "The doorkeeper lost her father at an early age. Jones said coldly, "The doorkeeper lost her father at a young age, the men in the family were incompetent and had nothing to fall back on, she had no choice but to stand up for herself and support the family."


        "You're different, you have a father, you have an older brother."


        "We are perfectly capable of weathering all storms for you!"


        "Our only hope for you is that you will grow up healthy and happy, so that you will always be the flower in the greenhouse and the princess in the ivory tower."


        "Angie, why can't you feel the pain I feel with my father?"


        "Why are you asking for trouble?"


        Mike. Jones urged bitterly.


        When, in the middle of the Amazon rainforest, he first heard his sister say that she wanted to study martial arts, Mike Jones didn't pay much attention to it. Jones did not pay much attention to it, and only thought that his sister had given up on a whim, after three minutes of heat and hardship.


        However, Mike. What Jones didn't expect is that the months that have passed, his sister not only did not have any intention of discouragement, but the vigor did not diminish at all.


        Even if she made her father and brother angry, she still insisted.


Chapter 1417

"I don't want your protection."


        "I want to master power, too, and I want to protect the people I want to protect," Angie said stubbornly.


        "You... You're mad at me you. I think you're just obsessed by that jerk, I really don't know, what did that Yan Xia Xiao'er say to you? It has actually made you change your temperament."


        "However, if you learned martial arts just to help that Ye Fan, I advise you to give it up early."


        "That guy is already dead."


        "The Yanxia side has all officially announced his fall."


        "Think about it yourself."


        Mike. Jones was so angry at this sister of his that he turned around and left after snorting a few words in a deep voice.


        Only Angie was left behind, with red eyes streaming tears and a low growl.


        "You're talking nonsense, my little brother Fan is not dead~"


        "He's not going to die, he's been rescued."


        He is not dead." "As soon as I have learned the martial arts, I will go and find him...".


        In everyone's heart, there should be something that they hold on to and hold on to.


        Just like Ye Fan, his obsession came from the humiliation he suffered more than ten years ago.


        He studied martial arts only to protect his mother, so that she and her son would not be bullied anymore.


        Like An Qi, her obsession came from the war in the rainforest.


        She didn't want to be a useless person.


        She didn't want to see her friends and family in danger, but she did nothing but cry.


        She hated that feeling of powerlessness.


        She hated the fact that she could do nothing in the face of danger.


        She hated that she was just a burden to others.


        She also wanted to prove herself, she also wanted to realize her own value, to be valued by the world.


        Mike. He knew his sister's temperament, and he knew she would not turn back until she had a bloody head on her shoulders.


        "Just, I'll see how long she can last."


        "The pain of the martial arts is not something that just anyone can endure."


        Mike. Jones looked back at his sister, who was still hard at work on her basic skills, shook his head with a sigh, and then returned to the hall as well.


        "Zeitoun, I'm sorry."


        "My sister is feeling a little ill, so I can't come and talk to you today."


        "Wait a few days, and I'll bring her to visit in person."


        Mike. Jones found an excuse to muddle through this.


        Angie was now so engrossed in her martial arts training that she didn't even see much of him as a brother, let alone come over to speak with an outsider.


        So, Mike. Jones could only gloss over it first.


        "All right then."


        Chu Qi Tian did not insist, anyway, there will be plenty of time to meet in the future.


        ----  


        ----  


        Truman Mountain, the sleeping quarters of the master of the Truman Gate.


        This is the place where Truman Master Tang Yun rested.


        The room is large and the display is not extravagant and luxurious, but it is extremely exquisite.


        In particular, the flowers and paintings that adorned it added some interest in life to this luxurious and majestic sleeping palace.


        At this time, Tang Yun was still in the room, sitting on the bed, quietly adjusting her breathing.


        The beautiful and graceful face of Tang Yun was a bit pale and slightly tired.


        After yesterday's battle, Tang Yun had already rested for one night.


        It is reasonable to say that a battle of the magnitude of yesterday's battle, with Tang Yun's cultivation and skills, should soon recover completely.


        But strangely, even after a night's rest, Tang Yun still feels a bit tired.


        This is not the first time, since returning from the rainforest trip, Tang Yun felt that his body was deteriorating day by day.


        She has become easily tired, lethargic, and fatigued, and her mental state has become somewhat sensitive, even her appetite is not as good as before.


        The strength of her cultivation was weakening as well.


        Tang Yun had never experienced such strange changes in his body. In particular, the degradation of her strength was so severe that Tang Yun panicked.


        The great work of the Chu Clan had not yet been accomplished, and her master's last wish had not yet been realized.


        She still had so many, many things to do, and if she didn't have enough cultivation, then all the plans she had in her heart would undoubtedly be difficult to realize.


        "What exactly is the reason?"


        "Why, after returning from the rainforest trip, is my cultivation waning?"


        Although, this fading is very slow.


        It was almost inaudible.


        But over time, Tang Yun could clearly feel that his strength was no longer at its peak.


        "Could it be that it's the aftermath of me forcibly refining the Ice Spirit Fruit?"


        Tang Yun's willow brow is furrowed, but she blames it on the internal refinement of the Ice Spirit Fruit in the cave that day.


        After all, this kind of refining method is unheard of and unseen by Tang Yun.


        If it weren't for Ye Fan, Tang Yun probably wouldn't have dared to even think about this kind of in vivo refining method.


        Although it was successful at the time, Tang Yun didn't know if there would be any side effects or after-effects in the future.


        It is because of Tang Yun's ignorance of this refining method that he blamed the changes in his body on the internal refinement of the Ice Spirit Fruit.


        However, Tang Yun did not know.


        Regardless of whether it is internal or external refinement, all the dangers only exist during refinement.


        Once the absorption is complete, there will be no more side effects in the future.


        Unless, the Ice Spirit Fruit itself was not of good quality, refining and absorbing a bad quality would naturally cause discomfort, but this had nothing to do with the refining method.


        "Eh?"


        "Who's out there?"


        However, while Tang Yun was still regulating her body, she suddenly noticed a subtle winterjing outside the door.


        With a chill in her brow and eyes, the cold, majestic voice sounded immediately!


        "Teacher, it's me, Gala Yu. I've brought you breakfast."


        Outside the door of the room, a beautiful woman returned in fear.


        This young woman was none other than Meng Wangyu, who had gone to meet Ye Fan on behalf of Tang Yun on Genting Mountain.


        Meng Evening Yu is a former member of the Tang family, and Tang Yun has kept her by her side since she was a child, and the two of them have always been known as master and disciple.


        In normal days, she was the only female disciple who took care of Tang Yun's food and clothing.


        However, Meng Evening Yu doesn't know what's going on. During this time, the Gate Master has become extremely sensitive.


        The slightest stirring of the wind and grass would alert the Master.


        This kind of behavior was really a bit abnormal.


        "Well, come in."


        After learning that it was Meng Evengyu, Tang Yun also let down her guard and let him in.


        "Gate Master, the milk is just warm, drink it while it's hot, don't let it cool." Meng Wan Yu pushed the door open and walked in, with some milk and pastries in her hands.


        Although eating wasn't essential for the title clan master, it was after all a habit formed over many years, so normally, three meals a day would still be provided as usual.


        "Good."


        Tang Yun nodded her head and received the hot milk from Meng Yanyu.


        However, just after taking a few sips, Tang Yun felt a bit nauseous and actually threw up again.


        "Teacher, what's wrong with you?"


        "Did you get hurt yesterday?"


        Meng Evening Yu was suddenly worried.


        Meng Evening Yu could vividly recall the strength of the mysterious woman yesterday.


        Although later, Tang Yun said that the woman was repulsed by her, Meng Wangyu did not know whether the teacher was injured or not.
