Chapter 1086: Acceptance of the Elder
Chapter 1086: Acceptance of the Elder
After finishing eating, Zheng-Fu returned to his room without talking to anyone else. And while walking back, he also met Wu-Mei. She waited for him on the way because she wanted to talk to him. So, Zheng-Fu invited her back to the room to talk.
At Zheng-Fu's room in Wu Clan...
"What do you have to say to me?" Zheng-Fu looked at Wu-Mei with normal eyes and asked with a smile. But actually, he could guess why Wu-Mei had come.
"I... I... I came to see you because I wanted to ask for your advice regarding the cultivation technique you gave to our Wu Clan. Because I feel stuck at some steps. Otherwise, I would have already understood the first part of this technique!" Wu-Mei was slightly embarrassed, but she asked, while staring at Zheng-Fu expectantly.
"So, where is your problem? Tell me," Zheng-Fu nodded and asked so that he could help her solve the problem.
"I have a problem with this..."
After Wu-Mei explained her problem, Zheng-Fu immediately helped her solve it. It was not difficult; within a short while, Wu-Mei could understand the first part of that cultivation technique. And it made her cultivate better. The Qi energy within her body was also many times stronger than before.
"Thank you, Young Master! Without your help, I think..."
"It's enough for you to call me by name. And I helped you because I liked your determination and courage. But remember that the matter which I advise you today must be kept secret. For I don't want to be accused of being biased. All right! Since you've finished what you wanted, go back. I'm going to rest. I have been tired for many days." Zheng-Fu raised his hand to stop Wu-Mei from speaking further because he wanted to rest. And he asked Wu-Mei to go back.
All right!
"See you tomorrow, Young... Zheng-Fu!"
Umm!
Finished speaking, Wu-Mei immediately ran out of Zheng-Fu's room. Her shyness towards Zheng-Fu caused her face to be very red at that time.
"She's gone, you can come out now!" Zheng-Fu suddenly spoke up, calling out to the person hiding in his room with a calm expression, not smiling like just now.
Flap!
"Do you know that I'm in this room?" The one who was hiding in the room was the Former Wu Clan Leader. He revealed himself after Zheng-Fu called him. He could not believe that Zheng-Fu knew he was there. He was confident that his concealment skills were very good.
"I knew from the moment I met Wu-Mei that you were here. And I always knew where you were until you revealed yourself to me! But what business do you have with me? Or are you going to deal with me?" Zheng-Fu replied to the elder indifferently. He had sensed the elder for a while. He just did not speak and waited to see what the elder would do. And when he saw that he was not doing anything, he called the elder to come out and asked about his purpose.
"I know what to do and what not to do. Moreover, I know that your two aides are very strong. Even though I'm at the first level of the Deity Monarch Stage, I still can't do anything to those two as if they were at the same level as me!" The elder said bitterly, feeling a little embarrassed to say that he could not defeat Zheng-Fu's assistants.
"You're half right. The two of them were indeed as strong as you. But what you think is wrong is that they aren't men. They're clone figures that are like manipulative dolls. Therefore, no matter how much you hurt them, they won't complain or be afraid. And they'll fight with you until they disappear from this world!" Zheng-Fu did not expect the elder to openly admit defeat like this. It was absolutely unforeseeable. Therefore, he directly told the elder that the two figures he fought were not human.
"What did you say!?"
The elder's reaction upon hearing that was exactly what Zheng-Fu had imagined. The elder was shocked and looked very disbelieving. But that made him realize something.
"No wonder I can't sense the life energy within them. Actually, it's like this. You're really amazing to have something like this with you. What about you? Who is stronger, you or the two clone figures?" The elder nodded in understanding. Before he honestly asked about Zheng-Fu's strength,
"Do you want to know? If so, I need two days to recover my energy. After that, let's maneuver. Do you think it's good?" Zheng-Fu did not say it directly. But he challenged the elder to a maneuver so he could see it with his own eyes.
No!
"Just this, I already know that you are stronger than them. Because if you weren't confident, you wouldn't dare challenge me. All right! I came here to apologize to you. I can see that you really helped my Wu Clan. Because I have already tested the cultivation technique that you taught my granddaughter just now. As a result, I was able to absorb energy faster, and my internal energy was twice as strong as before. And if I can reach a higher level than this, I believe that my energy will be nearly five times stronger!"
Actually, the elder just wanted to apologize to Zheng-Fu for his aggressive behavior earlier. Because he thought he was stronger, he did not care about anyone. But when he clashed with Zheng-Fu's two clone figures and studied the cultivation technique given by Zheng-Fu, he knew that what he had done was completely inappropriate. And it was he who would put the clan to shame.
"Forget it, the matter has already passed. I don't think too much of it. As long as you and your clan don't betray me in the future, that's enough. And if that's the case, I promise that your Wu Clan will receive great benefits for following me!" Zheng-Fu did not think too much about the matter. He understood that no one could accept such things immediately. He only asked that they not betray him in the future.
Thud!
"For that matter, this old man would like to make a promise to Young Master! In the future, my Wu Clan will definitely never betray you!" The elder knelt in front of Zheng-Fu and vowed firmly and sincerely. He did not pretend to say it because he wanted to gain some benefit. They were words that truly came from his heart. Although he was a hot-blooded person, he was also a person who kept his promises.
"Please get up, Master Elder! Even though I'm your Young Master, I'm a person who respects elders. So please get up. And as a token of our understanding, I'll give you a little help!"
Hah!?
Flap!
Tap! Tap! Tap!
Aaaaaah!!!
Zheng-Fu quickly rushed towards the elder as he finished speaking. He then reached out to press on various points on the elder's body so fast that no one could keep up with him. The elder was initially shocked and about to get angry that Zheng-Fu had tricked him into being nice to him and used this opportunity to attack him. However, after a moment passed, he felt no pain but felt very good and comfortable. Therefore, he calmed his mind and let Zheng-Fu continue.
Tap! Tap! Tap!
"And finally, it's this point!"
Tap!
Booooooom!!!
Aaaaaawww!!!
As soon as Zheng-Fu reached the last point, a huge energy wave, along with a strange cry, suddenly exploded from the elder's body.
"Wha... what... What is this?
The elder was stunned by what had happened. Not only did he feel fine, but the energy in his body also circulated much better. Previously, he had problems with energy circulation, and sometimes it got stuck, causing him to cough up blood. But now that feeling did not exist anymore.
"I helped deal with your stuck meridians caused by practicing some physical skills. That skill makes your meridians abnormal. Sometimes they shrink and sometimes enlarge, making it difficult for you to control your energy at certain times. But from now on, that problem won't happen again. Because I helped loosen those meridians!" Zheng-Fu explained what he had done. He knew that the elder would definitely ask him, so he explained first.
Thud!
"Thank you, Young Master! This grace I'll never forget. No matter if you ask me to go kill someone or go die somewhere, this old man will do everything!" The elder was very grateful to Zheng-Fu for curing his abnormality. He had been to many physicians and healers, but they all said they could not heal. And the people who knew about this symptom told him to stop practicing those physical skills. But he could not give up on it as it was a skill that made his body stronger.
"Please get up, Master Elder! In addition to treatment, I'll prescribe for you. Because after this, you'll have to take these medicines every day for one month. Otherwise, the meridians that I loosen would be blocked and you would instantly become crippled!" Zheng-Fu smiled with satisfaction at being able to make the elder accept and respect him. And to make the elder admire and respect him to the utmost, he needed to make the elder feel deeply indebted to him. He would give the elder a prescription to help his little elder become stronger and regain his youthful performance, claiming it was a medicine for his abnormal pulse.
"Thank you, Young Master!"
After finishing everything and understanding each other well, the elder left Zheng-Fu's room. And that gave Zheng-Fu free time to truly rest. So, he ordered the young guard outside that no one should disturb him again until tomorrow morning, even though he had closed the room tightly and had already activated the defensive tactical formation.
The next morning...
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Young Master Zheng-Fu, sir!
Young Master...
Creeeaaak!
"Is there some matter? Or did something happen?" Zheng-Fu immediately opened the door when he heard a knock on it and the shouts of the young guard standing in front of the room.
"Clan Leader has me come to summon you to dinner, sir. Clan Leader says food has been prepared for you. And if you don't want to go out to eat. We can bring it here for you, sir!" the young guard told him the reason for knocking on his door.
"I don't want to go out yet. You go back to tell the Wu Clan Leader and have someone bring me food here. And this is for you. This pill will help strengthen your body." Zheng-Fu thought for a moment before deciding not to go out to eat, so he told the young guard accordingly. And before the young guard left, Zheng-Fu gave him an energy-boosting pill, which was a Marvelous Pill. For he saw that the young guard had been watching over him all night.
"I... I... I can't accept it, sir, Young Master. This pill is…"
"Take it. If you don't accept it, I'll report you for your inappropriate behavior." Zheng-Fu had already thought that the young guard would not dare to accept. Therefore, he had to use tricks to force him to take it.
Ah!
"All right, sir, Young Master! I'll take it. Thank you so much, Young Master, for your kindness. Then I excuse myself to go back to report to Clan Leader, sir!" The young guard was very excited and delighted. He never thought that he would have such luck to receive the Marvelous Pill. Even though it was not a Qi energy-increasing pill, it would greatly improve his body if he took it. Or if he sold it, he would get quite a lot of money.
