Chapter 928: The Blame Game

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

It was still quite dark outside. However, some oil lamps were lit under the shed and in the main room. The lights from the oil lamp shone into the courtyard, and everything could be seen clearly.

Shao Zhongxi stared coldly at the small figure beside Xue Yan who was also in the horse stance before he stopped paying attention to them. He huffed in approval and continued to drink his tea.

His nephew was a good student. He didn’t complain, didn’t say he was tired, and didn’t say that he couldn’t do anything.

Xue Yan was trying to stay strong for two hours. He continuously stabbed himself for more than half an hour with his palm to keep the blood flowing. At last, he could not hold on any longer and dropped to the ground. His body loosened and he sat quietly on the floor in defeat.

He was very glad that his uncle didn’t put an incense stick behind him like Jiang Yue did. Otherwise, he would have sat on it and jumped up from the heat.

It was obvious that his uncle knew that he couldn’t last two hours.

These two hours must have been the temporary goal his uncle had set for him.

Xue Yan sat there as if his legs were crippled. As he massaged his legs, he looked at Jiang Yue.

Jiang Yue stood still as if nothing had happened. She did not look like she was struggling, ana ner race was noc llusnea rea eitner. sne 100Kea lair ana clean, like a jade sculpture, lovely and adorable.

Even though it was a little scary to see two meteor hammers hanging on her arms…

Xue Yan couldn’t help but glance towards the courtyard door. The courtyard door had already been closed by Qi Yin. Even if it was dawn and someone passed by, no one would be able to see what was going on inside. This meant that Jiang Yue was safe from being exposed. Once he confirmed that no one could peep at them, only then did he relax.

After resting for a while, he felt that he had the strength to do the horse stance again. He didn’t care if his legs felt like they were crippled or not, he propped himself up to stand up again and continued to do the horse stance.

There was no need for Shao Zhongxi to rush him.

After the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Xue Erfu came and knocked on the door outside the courtyard. “Master Gu, I’m here to take Xue Yan and Jiang Yue back for breakfast.”

When Jiang Yue heard that it was Erfu, she immediately stopped her horse stance and quickly removed the meteor hammer from her arms. Qi Yin had already gone to open the courtyard door and it was too late to put the weapon back into the main room. She decided to turn around and place it at Xue Yan’s feet instead.

Xue Yan was speechless.

The moment Xue Erfu came in, he saw Xue Yan just pulling back his feet, seemingly not doing anything anymore. To his surprise, there were two large meteor hammers beside Xue Yan’s feet. There were many spikes on the hammers, like shooting stars. Yesterday when he was helping to move things, he saw this hammer, but it wasn’t him who helped to bring it in.

He immediately strode over happily. “Xue Yan, you’re already practicing on this so quickly?”

As soon as he walked over, he subconsciously bent down and lowered his head. He wanted to carry a hammer in each hand and bring it into the main room. However, he did not expect the hammer to be so heavy. He almost slipped down from trying to carry the two hammers up.

Fortunately, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan quickly supported him.

“Why is this so heavy?” Xue Erfu’s eyes widened as he stared at the hammer on the ground in disbelief. It was not that he could not lift it, but he did not expect it to be so heavy. Immediately after, he widened his eyes and looked at Xue Yan. “You can lift all of that?”

Xue Yan gave a dry cough, and while stealing a glance at Jiang Yue, he said, “I can’t lift it up, but Master Gu said that I should try.”

“It would be strange if you could lift it. It’s so heavy.” Xue Erfu laughed. Then, he lowered his voice. “How old does he think you are? How can Master Gu ask you to carry such a heavy thing as a weapon? Isn’t that a little unreasonable?”

Xue Erfu was starting to doubt Shao Zhongxi’s ability to be a teacher.

“Ahem.” Xue Yan coughed dryly again, then stole a glance at his familys youngest who was quietly sitting in a corner. In any case, shifting the blame to him was the best choice. He showed a smile and said, “l just wanted to test how heavy I can lift something. I tried to lift the hammer and realized that I couldn’t lift it at all. Even when I used both hands, I couldn’t lift a single one. I was actually practicing the horse stance just now..”
