Back in the park, Xu Cheng went to the pavilion, closed his eyes, and recalled the old man's 30 moves. It was truly unpredictable, and to be honest, it was the first time Xu Cheng felt like he couldn't see through someone, including the old man's punches. No matter how Xu Cheng tried to capture the old man's moves with his ultrasonic waves, he could only see 12 of the old man's moves.
After Xu Cheng opened his eyes, he tried the 12 moves that he was familiar with. After going through them once, he shook his head. "Not right, the speed is not enough."
Then, he tried to learn the old man's moves again, but no matter what, his hand speed couldn't reach the old man's level. Xu Cheng scratched his head. "Looks like my speed isn't fast enough. I feel like the old man's 30 moves are a complete set of moves, and the 12 moves I memorized are probably incomplete and can't be connected. It's okay, the old man will come again tomorrow, and I will try to memorize it again."
Xu Cheng felt like the old man's set of moves was very interesting. Why was the old man so interested in it? It was because Xu Cheng now had the best physique. Whether it was his subconscious, physical fitness, speed, strength, or the ability to see the big picture, they were all very powerful. However, all of these could only be used for defense or self-defense, and he didn't have his own attacking style. It was fine against people who weren't that strong, but against a powerful master who could restrict your strength and was far faster than you in speed, then you could only take a beating because you didn't have your own set of moves to attack. The close combat techniques that Xu Cheng learned in the military would be useless in front of a real master.
His current situation was like an invulnerable and powerful robot, but he didn't have his own instructions on how to attack others. In other words, he had all the unique advantages of a war machine. He was like a peerless treasured sword, but it was rusty and didn't feel like it had its own set of rules.
This was also why in the beginning, as his body changed, he could only choose to be passive and try to figure out the opponent's moves first. For example, against the North Gate gang leader, or during the competition, Tie Shi's speed move of five Acupuncture Points in one second hit him on the back. If it wasn't for the fact that his muscles could act as a thick wall during the process of stiffening up, Tie Shi probably would have already frozen him in place.
From this, it could be seen that in the past, Xu Cheng mostly chose to be passive and use his brute force to fight head-on with others. It was the same for Hu Bing, Instructor Yan, and even when he was surrounded by six masters, he could only choose to be passive and use his own strength to protect himself. There were very few opportunities for him to take the initiative to attack and gain an advantage. Most of his opponents could just dodge his attacks, which was very fatal. Without this method, it could be said that he had lost the ability to take the initiative to fight against a real master.
When that old man used his move, Xu Cheng knew that it might be an exquisite fist technique. If he could learn it, it would be a perfect fit for him. That was why Xu Cheng's heart was moved. He didn't even care if the old man was sent to mess with him or not. But thinking about it, just like what the old man said, an old man who could afford to drink Da Hong Pao wouldn't be targeting him. Someone with this kind of background could just talk to the military and deal with Xu Cheng. Aside from that, under the premise that the old man was still friendly with him, Xu Cheng guessed that this old man was probably the old friend that the old man mentioned.
Back at the condo, Xu Cheng opened the door and went in. Lin Lei, who was sitting on the sofa waiting for him, immediately jumped up and asked, "Brother-in-law, are you crazy? You want to take my sister back to Britain? What are you thinking? "
Xu Cheng changed out of his sweaty sportswear and walked into the room to take a shower. At the same time, he said to Lin Lei, "You already called me Brother-in-law. If I don't take her back to my parents' place and tell them that I'm going to marry her, how would that be justified?"
Lin Lei anxiously said, "But if you do that, you will be stuck in the British Empire forever. Have you ever thought about coming back alive? My dad is afraid that you will be in danger after marrying my sister to you. That's why he wants you to go back to Huaxia and keep the marriage a secret. If you go back now, let's not talk about whether your marriage with my sister will anger those men who want to get her. Just the people you offended at school in the past will want nothing more than to kill you. To be honest, you aren't going to get married, you are going to die. Also, if those people can't get my sister, they would rather have her stay in Britain than come back to Huaxia with you. Have you thought about that? "
Xu Cheng turned around and said to Lin Lei, "I know what you are worried about, and you also know that I love your sister. If that's the case, I will have to face those people sooner or later. Your sister is already a citizen of Huaxia like me, and she's also a public figure, so her safety is not a problem. The British Empire will not allow anything to happen to her. As for me, you don't have to worry about me. I can play with them at school, and I can also play with them when I grow up."
Lin Lei: "How are you going to play? When you were young, there was school supervision, and now we are all adults. Those people you offended are all military commanders and nobles. Now that they have grown up, they are more powerful and lawless, and your appearance will only bring back the shadows of their childhood. These people will definitely try to make a move on you. Brother-in-law, I know what they are up to. Sometimes, you don't even know when you're in a nightclub or in a remote corner, and your body can only be found in the Thames River the next day. "
Xu Cheng put on a scarf and looked Lin Lei in the eye as he said, "Lei, even if I die, I don't want to follow in my dad's footsteps. He succeeded in everything in his life, but his biggest failure was not being able to be with the person he loved. Even after he died, the person he loved never came to visit him in front of his grave. I don't want your sister to be with me without any status. My wife is so beautiful, so gentle, and so generous, but I can't tell my friends or the whole world. Do you understand this pain? Before, I didn't know if your sister's love for me was firm or not, but now, I know that we have a tacit understanding. So, for her, I must go to the British Empire this time. I want to tell those single nobles, 'F * ck those single dogs, don't even think about my wife!' "
Lin Lei bitterly smiled. "I don't want you to go because Dad can't protect you anymore. You also know that Dad's assets are shrinking every year, and his status and influence are getting weaker by the day. He can't protect you at all, understand? You and my sister don't know about this. In fact, Dad's corporation is facing a crisis. If you guys go this time and someone says that they want to use the future of Dad's corporation in exchange for my sister's marriage, what bargaining chip can you use to negotiate? "
Xu Cheng raised his fist. "I'll use this! When I grew up, I will use this to remind them of my sandbag-sized fist! Okay, I've made up my mind. If you are scared, you don't have to go back with me. "
Lin Lei was speechless. "If I don't go back, who's going to collect your corpse?"
