Chaotic World of Martial Arts: I Have a Spirit Pearl of Desire

Seeing the desires he'd been having these past two days, Chen You was actually quite speechless.

I never dreamed that my senior sister was a sucker for good looks!!

He admitted that Fang Zheng was fairly good-looking.

Unfortunately, he lacked the right temperament.

Just because he was jealous of Gao Chengyang, and he couldn't deal with Gao Chengyang, he actually wanted to deal with him instead!

If he hadn't been able to see the intelligence, he would have been crippled long ago.

"However, the second desire is quite easy to fulfill..."

Even 30 points of lust are still considered flesh, so why not take it?!

At the same time, the desire value for treating athlete's foot has been credited!

A full 50 desire points.

"Now I have a full 400 Desire Points."

"Alright, Chen You, don't get distracted now. I'll start teaching you the Blood-Strengthening Breathing Technique! This method focuses on nourishing blood with qi, mobilizing the power of the internal organs through a special breathing frequency. It can help you quickly improve your qi and blood, thereby breaking through cultivation bottlenecks!!"

"The core of this technique lies in three long and one short points, and the Qi sinks to the Mingmen point."

As Yang Zhenzhen spoke, she extended her finger and gently tapped Chen You's lower abdomen and lower back a few times to indicate, "When inhaling, it should be like a silkworm spinning silk, continuous and gentle, guiding the inhaled air to the dantian, and then lifting it up through the coccyx to warm and nourish the spinal cord; when exhaling, it should be short and forceful, like a furnace expelling impurities, expelling all the turbid air from the body in one breath."

"Just watch my breathing rhythm." Yang Zhenzhen closed her eyes, and her chest began to rise and fall in a very regular rhythm.

With each breath, the surrounding air seemed to heat up slightly. "Remember, every movement of your qi and blood must be coordinated with the intent of the Three Yang Fist. Empty your mind, sense the flow of blood in your veins, and use your will to urge it, making it boil like water..."

Chen You watched intently, listening to Yang Zhenzhen's detailed explanation of the energy circulation route, and the key points about the circulation of qi and blood in his mind suddenly became clear.

At this moment, the rosary beads in my mind began to spin.

[Exercise Method: Blood-Strengthening Breathing Exercise (already recorded)]

Successfully entered.

Then, Yang Zhenzhen carefully explained some key points, which greatly benefited Chen You.

"Junior Brother Chen, it's getting late, so you should go back and rest early. If there's anything you don't understand, you can ask me tomorrow."

"Thank you, Senior Sister." Chen You bowed deeply, then turned and left the backyard of the martial arts school into the night.

Once his figure had completely disappeared outside the door, a series of faint footsteps sounded from the shadows in the backyard.

The museum owner, Yang Yan, walked out with his hands behind his back and a calm expression.

At this moment, Yang Yan's face was rosy and his eyes were bright and piercing. He looked nothing like the person who was terminally ill before.

After consuming that century-old wild ginseng, his internal injuries and chronic illnesses had been completely cured.

However, in order to uncover the traitor hidden within the martial arts school, he had been feigning illness to conceal his condition from the outside world.

"Father, as you instructed, I have already taught the Blood Strengthening Breathing Technique to Junior Brother Chen You," Yang Zhenzhen said softly as she walked to her father's side.

"Yes, I was watching from the shadows the whole time." Yang Yan nodded slightly, a hint of approval flashing in his eyes. "The way this kid was breathing and exhaling while standing was extremely stable, and his aura was calm. He's definitely got the makings of a martial artist."

Yang Zhenzhen asked with some curiosity, "Does Father mean that Junior Brother Chen You has great potential for the future?"

Yang Yan sighed and shook his head, saying, "It's a pity, he's too old. In martial arts, one should normally lay a solid foundation before the age of fifteen. He's already nineteen, his bones and blood have long been formed, so his foundation is ultimately lacking. However... this kid's comprehension is indeed extraordinary. If he's lucky in the future, it's very possible that he can cultivate to the late stage of the first rank."

"So that's how it is..." Yang Zhenzhen pursed her lips thoughtfully.

"Zhenzhen, I've heard recently that you've been going to Baicaotang a lot. Is it because you've taken a fancy to Fangzheng there?"

Yang Yan suddenly changed the subject, staring intently at his daughter.

Yang Zhenzhen's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately looked away guiltily, stammering, "Father, what nonsense are you talking about? There's nothing like that... I was just passing by and buying some blood-strengthening powder for my junior brothers."

"Really? You used to send Hongwu to do all these errands and purchasing chores." Yang Yan smiled jokingly.

No one knows a daughter better than her father. He could easily see through his daughter's little thoughts and said with a gentle smile, "You're not getting any younger. If you really like that young man from the Fang family, I can personally find a matchmaker for you and go to their door to make it happen..."

"father!"

Before her father could finish speaking, Yang Zhenzhen blushed crimson with embarrassment and stamped her feet in frustration, saying, "Don't talk nonsense! I don't like him at all, I'm ignoring you!"

After saying that, she covered her face, turned around and ran back to the inner room in a hurry.

"You silly girl, now that your athlete's foot is cured, why are you still worried that someone won't like you...?"

Watching his daughter's panicked retreat, Yang Yan stood there shaking his head and smiling bitterly, sighing helplessly, "Sigh, daughters grow up and leave home; her temper is getting bigger and bigger."

As night fell, the streetlights gradually dimmed.

Chen You had a warm paper package tucked in his arms. From afar, he could smell a rich aroma of meat. It was a beggar's chicken that he had specially bought from a time-honored shop in the south of the city on his way home.

As soon as she entered the house, Xu Yue, who was wiping the table, twitched her nose and her eyes lit up.

She eagerly stepped forward and asked, "Brother Chen, what good stuff did you bring back? It smells so good!"

At this moment, her older sister, Xu Qiuxue, was bringing out steaming hot food from the kitchen.

Actually, dinner had already been prepared, but the two sisters had been keeping it warm in the pot, patiently waiting for Chen You to come back so they could eat together.

"I brought you a beggar's chicken!" Chen You smiled as she placed the paper package on the table and reached out to peel off the mud shell and lotus leaf covering it.

In an instant, a rich and enticing aroma of chicken, mingled with the fragrance of lotus leaves, filled the entire room.

"I know you're a sweet-toothed girl, so I bought it for you specially," Chen You teased.

"Wow! Thank you, Brother Chen!" Xu Yue clapped her hands and jumped for joy, swallowing hard as she said, "Brother Chen, how did you know I wanted to eat this? I told my sister I wanted to eat it the day before yesterday, but she thought it was too expensive and wouldn't buy it for me no matter what."

Hearing this, Xu Qiuxue, who was setting the table, glared at her younger sister helplessly and scolded, "We have meat and fish at home every day, why do you still want to eat beggar's chicken from outside? It's such a waste of money."

Seeing this, Xu Yue quickly shrank her neck, stuck out her tongue, and whispered in defense, "But sister, I didn't pester Brother Chen to buy this. He bought it himself, so you can't blame me!"

Watching the two sisters bicker, Chen You felt a surge of warmth in her heart and stepped in with a smile to smooth things over: "Qiu Xue, don't blame her. Actually, I was craving one myself today, and I just happened to pass by that shop, so I bought one. Let's try them together tonight."

As he spoke, he looked at the prayer beads.

[Xu Yue's desire: She wants to eat beggar's chicken. (Completed, gained 10 desire points.)]

Xu Yue doesn't have much desire.

But from time to time, sporadic desires will arise.

For example, eating fish, candied hawthorn, pastries, etc.

She's just a little foodie.

Little by little, he has accumulated about one hundred desire points in the past few days.

The three sat down around the wooden table, the light from the oil lamp illuminating the room with a warm glow.

Chen You reached out and skillfully broke off the two plump chicken legs from the beggar's chicken, handing them to Xu Qiuxue and Xu Yue's bowls without saying a word, one for each of them.

Then, he tore off a chicken wing for himself.

"Brother Chen, this chicken is so tender, it's delicious!"

Xu Yue couldn't wait to take a big bite, and immediately squinted her eyes in happiness, exclaiming in a muffled voice of surprise.

"Of course, this beggar's chicken is from a long-established brand in the south of the city, and the cooking time is very particular."

Chen You smiled as he watched her eat, her mouth covered in oil.

Xu Qiuxue looked at the chicken leg in the bowl, a hint of tenderness flashing in her beautiful eyes, and said softly, "Chen You, you should eat more too. Practicing martial arts consumes your energy and blood, so you are the one who needs to replenish your body the most."

"Master's wife, why aren't you eating? Don't try to save me food!"

As he spoke, he rubbed his leg under the table against Xu Qiuxue's leg.

Xu Qiuxue blushed deeply.

This Chen You is getting bolder and bolder. He actually tried to touch and take advantage of his own sister.

However, Xu Qiuxue wasn't angry at all. Instead, she felt sticky and sweet inside, as if she had tasted honey.

Then, he picked up the chicken leg and started eating.

So fragrant!
