Empress Running Away With The Ball

167-168

Chapter 167: A child's skills

"It's too late to feel fear now! In this world, there is no good ending for anyone that offends my third brother! My third brother is a person that holds grudges and you better pray to god that he never finds you in this lifetime."

Chu Shao Bai rolled his eyes, but he did not fail to notice her slight trembling.

His words were very cold, but he took a large black cloak and draped it over her shoulders.

Chen Ning's heart felt warm.

"Xiao Bai, you will help me, right?" She suddenly turned her head and revealed a gentle smile to him.

His heart began beating fast and his breathing seemed like it had stopped. He just gave a grunt.

"You want me to help you go against my third brother? I won't do that." He had no emotions on his face as he rejected her.

Did this girl think that he would help her just because she smiled at him?

He could help her play around with his third brother and embarrass his third brother, but if anyone wanted to harm his third brother's life, he, Chu Shao Yang would never agree.

Even if it was her!

Chen Ning was not angry. She revealed a faint smile and said, "Xiao Bai, your qinggong is quite good. Are you willing to teach me qinggong?"

"Learn qinggong?" Chu Shao Bai was stunned. He turned to look at her, "The help you're asking for is for me to teach you qinggong?"

"That's right." Chen Ning raised her brows and then sat back on the grass. She pulled out a stalk of grass to chew and then she spat it out.

Her movements were very natural and did not seem fake at all. She was completely different from the other large family daughters he had met before.

"Why do you want to learn qinggong?" He sat down right beside her, touching his shoulder to hers.

"Of course it is to run away." Chen Ning giggled and then stuck her tongue out, "I have offended your third brother today, so next time he sees me, he will definitely wish to kill me. If I had qinggong at the same level as you, even if I can't beat him, I can still run away!"

Chu Shao Bai found this frustrating and funny.

Does she think that qinggong is that easy to learn?

If she wanted to run away from his third brother, she wouldn't be able to accomplish this even after practicing for ten years.

But, if she did learn qinggong, if she was ever in danger, she would have another way to keep her life.

"Alright, I'll teach you." He nodded without any hesitation.

Chen Ning was a little excited, "Is qinggong hard to learn?"

"Of course it is not hard." Chu Shao Bai responded without even thinking about it. For him, it was something very easy, "But, do you have internal energy?"

He did not even have to ask to know. She did not have any internal energy at all.

She knew a few basic martial arts, but that kind of martial arts to him and his third brother was just like child's play. It was not the same.

"Not a little bit." Chen Ning honestly shook her head.

"If you do not have any internal energy, it is hard to reach the peak while learning qinggong." Chu Shao Bai felt a little awkward as he thought for a bit before saying, "How about I teach you an internal energy technique first?"
