Chapter Nineteen: The Unlucky Lei Xing

  "People outside are so tiresome to talk to, beating around the bush without being straightforward? They're clearly seething with hatred, wanting to stab everyone with a knife, yet their faces are still plastered with smiles. A classic case of 'honey on the lips and a sword in the belly', utterly hypocritical." Wang Chan witnessed this scene before him, feeling secretly ashamed, but also gaining a deeper understanding of these people outside the mountain.

  This villa is really too big, the entire first floor was built into a Suzhou-style garden, it's completely an indoor entrance garden, with small bridges and flowing water, wisteria and green trees, after winding around finally arrived at a giant tree trunk-like elevator.

  Zhou Lin randomly pressed a few buttons on the top row, and suddenly heard a "ding" sound. From inside came a series of loud thudding sounds, followed by a low, distant voice: "What's going on? Don't you know I'm practicing my skills?"

  "Third Young Master, I am Zhou Lin. The person you asked me to bring is here, please take care of them." Upon hearing the voice that seemed to come from nowhere, Zhou Lin's expression became extremely respectful.

  "As long as he can pass this level, I'll even lend him a ladder. Alright, Old Zhou, you have something to attend to, let him come up by himself, I'm in the training room on the top floor." After a while, another loud crashing sound came from inside, that low and muffled voice slightly mixed with a hint of panting after exercise.

  "This person has a big tone, and actually doesn't even see Zhou Lin's face, but wants me to go up alone. It seems that Lei San Shao is also from the same background as Lin Shao, born into a noble family. However, for someone who grew up in wealth and luxury, being infatuated with martial arts is quite unusual. Just now, I heard the sound of him striking heavy objects, dense and not scattered, it seems that he has also received guidance from a famous master." Wang Chan followed Zhou Lin to get here, everything looks new and interesting, hearing Lei San Shao's voice coming from afar, full of energy, immediately knew that this person is a true practitioner.

  "Brother, I'll leave my daughter to you. I still have to rush to the airport and head to Beijing tonight. Time is too short, so just go up by yourself." Zhou Lin turned back and gave Wang Chan a deep look, patted him hard on the shoulder, then immediately called for someone to move all of Wang Chan's belongings, and himself quickly left without giving Wang Chan a chance to speak.

  He knew Zhou Lin's mood was definitely bad at this time, and Wang Chan just shook his head, sighed, and took the elevator to the top floor of the villa. Someone opened the door for him early, but as soon as he entered, it was an ancient red wood gate, and after passing through a moon gate, he finally reached the central area of the top floor.

  Wang Chan glanced slightly and found that the top floor was much larger than he had imagined, at least 500 or 600 square meters. Along the carpeted corridor to the end, there were two Chinese-style red lacquered doors with brass hinges. Before entering, Wang Chan's ears moved, and he heard a faint breathing sound coming from inside.

  Seeing the two large doors ajar, Wang Chan didn't say anything and wasn't polite either, directly pushing the door open and walking in.

  "Be careful!" A loud shout, Wang Chan had just pushed the door and entered the house, without seeing anything in front of him, when he heard someone shouting loudly in front of him. Suddenly, a strong gust of wind hit his face, with a "whooshing" sound, as if a hard object like a stick was slashing through the air, and in an instant it reached his chest, extremely fast and ruthless.

  Also knowing to remind beforehand, this person's nature is not bad! Suddenly encountering an ambush, Wang Chan still had the energy to think wildly for a moment. Before he even pushed open the door, he could hear that there was someone hiding behind it, but it wasn't clear what kind of idea Lei Xing Lei San Shao was harboring.

  He didn't dodge or evade, but instead twisted his waist and hips, sat down and exerted force from the ground, steadily and solidly in a big horse stance, with a simple punch. His horse stance was instantly stable as a mountain, and his whole body seemed to be connected to the ground as one entity, with a fist thrust out like a cannonball.

  A dull thud was heard, and Wang Chan's fist landed on a flying kick from the opposite side. He felt his fist sink suddenly, as if it had hit a large stone. At this moment, the young man in traditional martial arts attire opposite him also used Wang Chan's fist to flip backwards in mid-air, landing with a thud on the ground, his face filled with uncontrollable surprise.

  After landing, he hastily retreated and quickly lifted his right leg. Looking down, he saw that the sole of his specially made leather shoes had been cut off as if by a large knife, and the bottom of his foot was burning with pain.

  "What kind of fist are you practicing, how can your strength be so great?" He swung his legs back and forth, and this young man also took off the practice shoes on his other foot and threw them aside. He jumped up and down in place a few times, and after slightly regaining some consciousness, he turned around and pounced again without mercy.

  He changed his move, no longer pouncing and kicking, but instead using a series of rapid footwork, like walking through the forest, exactly the nine-turn linked step in the poking foot flip fist. He quickly closed in, bent his leg to sweep horizontally, and with a popping sound, his calf stretched out like a razor, from bottom to top, whistling through the air, yet again it was the Shaolin Twelve Routes Popping Leg skill.

  "This kid is tall and has long legs, his skills are also focused on legwork, although he has some framework too. He's paid the price for it, but still, he's only comparable to Lei Laohu. How can he be my opponent? Unfortunately, I need a favor from him now, so I won't be able to hurt him. No choice but to take a step back and try out this newly learned Bajiquan instead."

  Wang Chan was afraid that he would use too much force and couldn't control himself, so he carefully controlled his strength and suddenly jumped out to the side like a big cat.

  This move is called "Ling Mao Cuan".

  The wild mountain cat, also known as the lynx, is a truly carnivorous beast with a body size between that of a domestic cat and a leopard. It has a cautious and cunning nature, and when encountering natural enemies such as tigers, leopards, and bears, it immediately puffs up its fur and makes a desperate dash for safety, often jumping from tree to tree or fleeing for its life.

  Therefore, in the fist method, there is also a saying "cat slips dog flashes gold does not change", although the name is not very good to hear, it belongs to one of the most secretive and untransmitted tricks in Bajiquan.

  He suddenly lunged to the side, and Wang Chan, still thinking of his plan in his mind, put his big hand behind him and suddenly "bang" grabbed the door that he had just pushed open, his feet barely touching the ground. With a loud creaking sound, half of the large door was actually torn off its frame by him, with wood chips flying everywhere.

  Wang Chan made a move, "Lingering Cat Leap", and jumped to the side. He flashed and disappeared, neither attacking nor defending, using it just right, like a deer hanging its horns, leaving no trace to be found. Although he retreated, his momentum was astonishing.

  With a loud crash, the door panel fell to the ground, shaking the floor and causing Wang Chan's feet to slip. He quickly regained his balance, standing with his feet shoulder-width apart, like a bowstring about to be released. Immediately, he launched himself forward with one hand, his back and spine rippling like a dragon in motion, producing a series of light crackling sounds.

  Then with a wave of his right hand, the half-door panel was lifted by him with one hand, and the large shield also flew up more than one person high. With a loud "Hoo!" it slammed down fiercely in front, like a mountain pressing down, strong and unmatched!

  The opponent, Lei Xing, was caught off guard by a single move and counterattacked with all his might. Just as Wang Zhen was about to launch a decisive blow, he didn't expect the person in front of him to be so fierce and bold. Suddenly, he tore down the door of his own house, swung it in mid-air, and slapped it towards himself like swatting flies. This kind of attack was unheard of and unseen before.

  He knew how much effort he had put into decorating this house, and the two large doors of the training room were made of solid oak wood, three inches thick, two meters wide, and nearly three meters high, weighing at least 600 pounds. If he was hit on the head by such a thing, it would be no surprise that he would end up as a human-shaped meat pie.

  At this moment, Lei San Shao's entire face was deathly pale. At this time, there were only two or three steps between him and Wang Chan, his whole body under the shadow of the door panel. With Wang Chan's power and speed, he thought it would be impossible to dodge even if he wanted to. Who could have imagined that just because he had a sudden whim to test this person's skills, as soon as they met face-to-face, he would almost lose his own life? He was about to die unjustly!

  A powerful gust of wind came crashing down, causing his eardrums to vibrate, as if a large military helicopter was taking off right next to him. The howling wind and deafening roar made him suddenly burst out with even greater strength and speed than usual. He tiptoed on the ground, curling up into a ball, trying to minimize the impact area, avoiding his head and vital areas, desperately retreating backwards.

  But all this was in vain, under Wang Chan's hands he was like a monkey who had fallen into the Buddha's palm, coming with confidence and leaving with tears streaming down his face, thinking that everything was within his grasp, only to be controlled by others and unable to escape. Fortunately, Wang Chan never intended to do anything to him, and in the end, it was just a slight pause, and the weight of the door was lifted from his shoulders, gently stopping on Lei Xing's head, less than three inches away.

  Come like thunder and lightning, go like a calm sea.

  Wang Chan's grasp of the force was so subtle that it couldn't be described, with thousands of kilograms of strength, he could stop on a dime, without any hint of strain.

  "You're cruel, you're too cruel!" It wasn't until Wang Chan casually leaned the large door against a wall on one side that Lei Xing, who had been squatting on the ground with his head in his hands, looked up at Wang Chan as if he had seen a dog bear spirit transformed into human form. After a long while, he finally calmed down, stood up from the ground covered in cold sweat, and gave Wang Chan a thumbs-up, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

  "Big brother, I was just trying to test your skills, you didn't have to demolish my front door!!! If it weren't for the fact that I'm blessed with good fortune and a strong fate, you would have definitely knocked me out cold and stuck me on the ground like a poster."
