Chapter 273: Aren’t We Buddies Already
Chu Chuyan: “……”
Why did the words from this guy’s mouth always sound so strange?
But she couldn’t really argue back, because she really did have to take off her clothes for the treatment.
She turned around with bitterness. Her clothes slowly slid down her silky skin, revealing a stunning snow white scene that would make any men go crazy.
Zu An thought this won’t do. I gotta tell her I have to treat her front side next time.
But out of fear of scaring her, he decided that he shouldn’t be overhasty.
He really had to work hard to hold back a nosebleed while completing tonight’s treatment.
Chu Chuyan expressed her thanks to him with a reddened face. Then, she firmly chased him out of her room.
“Who treats their benefactors like this?” Zu An snorted in discontent as he left her courtyard.
At the same time, he gave his unsatisfied little bro down there a look. This cannot continue! I’ll get sick at this rate!
What did people say before? Unsatisfied and ungrown?
He mumbled to himself in annoyance the whole way back to his own room. Suddenly, his mind shook. He evaded to the side and dodged the attack from behind the door.
“Oh? Not bad. You’ve improved from yesterday.” A flirtatious laughter sounded from behind the door.
Zu An followed the source of the sound, seeing Pei Mianman leaning against the door with an ambiguous smile on her face.
Her laughter made great waves ripple across her magnificent chest.
“Eyes up here.” Pei Mianman snorted, noticing his expression. With a flip of her wrist, her fine white hand stabbed at him.
Zu An jumped in fright. “Aren’t we buddies already? You don’t have to react like this just because I stared for a bit too long, right?”
Pei Mianman’s tender and beautiful face immediately became extremely cold. Her playful eyes also revealed a hint of frigid killing intent.
Zu An was alarmed. I don’t think she got my joke.
He didn’t dare act carelessly either, his hand immediately moving to his Tai’e Sword.
But before his sword even left the scabbard, Pei Mianman already rushed over, one hand pressing his sword back into the scabbard.
The other hand seized the chance to attack him.
If this was any other time, Zu An would have definitely spent some time complimenting this fine hand, maybe even stroke it a bit.
But the crazy strength coming out of that hand already left him horrified. There was no charm or gentleness left at all!
He wanted to evade backwards, but the other party stuck right in front of him, not letting him pull open the distance at all.
Zu An already invested everything into sword techniques, so his unarmed combat skills really weren’t anything special. Without a sword, he could only fight on instinct.
In a moment’s work, several fists already landed on his body. If not for Zu An’s greatly increased cultivation and the Primordial Origin Sutra tempering his body, he might have already been seriously injured, blood pouring out of his mouth. He would’ve already lost most of his fighting strength.
Even so, there was no way he wouldn’t get worked up after being struck like this
The other party’s sudden and unreasonable attacks already made him a bit angry.
He immediately used the modified ‘Sunflower Phantasm’, his body suddenly dividing into two.
Pei Mianman was surprised. She clearly didn’t expect this.
Her hand moved even faster, just happening to strike Zu An’s chest acupoint. However, she didn’t feel a hint of happiness. That empty feeling that transmitted back from her fingers told her that she missed.
Sure enough, the ‘Zu An’ she struck scattered into countless fragments of lights and shadows.
She was shaken. She was just about to dodge to the side, but a cold feeling suddenly pressed against her neck. A sword was already resting on her shoulder.
“What’s wrong with you? Do you accept your defeat?”
Zu An also noticed that even though her blows looked heavy, she didn’t actually use all her strength. Since she did hold back a bit, he didn’t go too far this time either.
“You’re no fun at all. Fine, I lose~”
“As soon as she said the word ‘lose’, her body suddenly twisted. Like a beautiful snake, she slipped out and rammed into his chest.
Zu An was alarmed. He subconsciously stepped backwards, but it was already too late.
He felt his wrist go numb, unable to hold the Tai’e sword anymore.
When the Tai’e sword fell down, Pei Mianman’s body winded left and right around him, instantly twisting Zu An’s arms behind his back.
Then, the tips of her toes pressed against the crook of his leg. Zu An could no longer remain standing, directly forced into a kneeling position.
Pei Mianman twisted his arms while pressing her knee against his back. Then, with a beautiful smile, she blew gently by his ear. “So? Do you accept your defeat?”
“I accept… my ass!” Zu An roared. He immediately forcefully twisted his body. His arm dislocated with a crack sound, breaking free from her hold.
Pei Mianman didn’t expect him to be this fierce. Her face turned pale, her other hand also subconsciously loosening.
Zu An already prepared his following moves. He pounced like a furious lion, instantly pushing her down.
Pei Mianman wanted to evade, but her legs were kicked out from under her, making her lose her center of gravity. She fell unsteadily to the ground.
Zu An didn’t feel any hesitation this time. He pressed down on her with his weight, and then used the brazilian jujitsu from his past world to lock her down.
Pei Mianman struggled again and again, but her current position robbed her of most of her body’s strength.
“It’s this again…” Pei Mianman curled her lips and decided she might as well give up on her struggle.
The two of them still weren’t acquainted with each other back then. She was also locked down by this fella in the end by this guy.
Zu An was gasping for breath. The tremendous strength he erupted with just now left him more tired than even running three kilometers in his past world.
“Woman, you admit defeat?”
“I admit defeat, I admit defeat.” Pei Mianman shot him a complaining look. “Big guy, you have to teach me this later.”
Zu An didn’t dare act carelessly after the painful lesson he just learned. He didn’t let her go and instead continued to ask quietly, “What the heck were you trying to do? Why did you suddenly attack me?”
“It was mainly to train your reaction speed. Aren’t you being targeted by that Chen Xuan right now? As a friend, I obviously need to help you out with your training,” replied Pei Mianman. Her peach blossom eyes seemed like they could speak, always filled with a smiling expression. It was as if she didn’t take any of this to heart.
“Is it really just this?” Zu An was a bit skeptical.
“You can’t blame me for having some selfish motives, I wanted to test you out a bit. I wanted to see just just what kind of skills makes you normally so confident,” Pei Mianman said this without hiding anything.
Zu An began to think to himself. He was actually already eighty percent convinced. Even though this girl did attack him quite fiercely, she didn’t really want him dead. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have subconsciously let go when he endured the pain and dislocated his own arms.
Pei Mianman finally became a bit annoyed when she saw that he still didn’t move. “Get off me already! Does it feel that good to press down your wife’s close friend like this?”
It would have been fine if she didn’t say the second sentence. Zu An was already irritated after leaving Chu Chuyan’s room.
But now that he was incited by these ambiguous words, his entire body went rigid.
“What is prodding at me?” Pei Mianman’s brows furrowed. “Who would have thought that a brat like you would even fiddle with secret weapons! You really did still have some tricks you didn’t reveal.”
Zu An’s face turned red. What was he supposed to say here? He immediately became speechless.
Pei Mianman subconsciously turned around. Her charming face suddenly flushed red. How could she not figure out what happened?
“Damn brat, get off me right now or I’ll burn you down!” Pei Mianman said while biting down on her lip. A black flame began to jump about on her finger.
Zu An was originally about to get up. But when he heard the threatening tone in her voice, his stubborn nature immediately flared up.
“No way. If you have the skill then just burn me! Even before I die, I’ll drag you down with me. Dying as lovebirds doesn’t seem that bad!” Zu An was worried that she would escape, so he pressed down even tighter.
“You… scoundrel!” Pei Mianman finally began to panic when she felt the heavy impact.
She can’t just burn him down over some small matter like this, right?
But I’ll burn him to death if he keeps doing stuff like this even if he’s Chuyan’s husband!
Pei Mianman continued to set bottom lines in her mind.
Zu An was extremely amused when he saw this usually flirtatious and charming woman become so flustered.
He carefully examined the girl beneath him, noticing a blushing spread across her beautiful snow white face. This type of bashfulness really couldn’t be faked.
He was inwardly stirred. He lowered his head to give her cheek a kiss.
“Ah!!!” Pei Mianman was frightened. She clearly didn’t expect him to suddenly do this.
Her entire body trembled. The black flame on her fingertip also completely went out after jumping a few times.
Her voice was shaking a bit, her peach blossom eyes even produced a layer of watery mist.
Zu An was given a fright. Why was her body this sensitive?
The room immediately entered a strange state of silence. Only these two’s panting remained.
Pei Mianman finally calmed down after some time passed. Messy hair covered her face, hiding her current expression. “Get off!”
Zu An already regretted his impulsive action a bit, his guilt-ridden self unable to continue this. He crawled up in a flustered manner.
“Just now, I…” Zu An was just about to apologize, but inside, he was wailing in anguish. What was the use of an apology now?
But who would’ve known that Pei Mianman would immediately cut him off here?
“I was testing you before to see what level you are at. Your movement techniques and sword skills aren’t bad, but your hand to hand combat skills are too poor. I’ll teach you the Entangling Feathersilk Art so that you still have a way to protect yourself against Chen Xuan in a situation where you can’t use your sword.”
Zu An blinked his eyes. Are we just going to pretend nothing happened?
Seeing that he didn’t say anything in reply and continued to stare at her, Pei Mianman suddenly became annoyed. “Are you listening?!”
You have successfully trolled Pei Mianman for +111 Rage!
Zu An gulped. “I heard you, but just now…”
“There are no buts. Nothing happened at all just now. The things I am teaching you today… you cannot tell Chu Chuyan either, understand?” Pei Mianman stared at him, her eyes full of admonishment.
“Understood!” Zu An reacted straight away. Since she didn’t want to mention what happened anymore, then he wouldn’t continue to beat the dead horse. Either way… he wasn’t the one losing out.
“Watch carefully, I’m only going to show you once! If you don’t pay attention then that’s on you!” Pei Mianman’s face blushed slightly. She was clearly trying to deceive herself with her words before.
