Chapter 39: Youthful Pride
“Creak, creak,” sounded from behind as Third Elder Liu Hong pushed Patriarch Liu Qiong forward in a wooden wheelchair.
Liu Xu immediately moved to offer a formal bow, but Liu Qiong waved his hand, so she stood aside respectfully.
“This is where the juniors of the Liu Clan practice martial arts, and that is my youngest son.”
Liu Qiong was referring to the youth practicing martial arts in front of the one-eyed burly man.
“Young Hero Young Hero Gu is a seventeen-year-old youth martial master. I wonder if my humble son’s skills are worthy of your notice?”
Liu Xu focused her gaze and watched. The youth’s horse stance was very stable; as one foot stomped down, dust swirled high into the air. He exerted great force, yet his legs did not tremble in the least.
“Ha!”
He swung his arm and threw a punch that whipped up a whistling fist wind, then spun around with a flying kick—his movements sharp, nimble, and seamless.
A smile touched Liu Xu’s lips. With true qi circulating within, her younger brother was fourteen years old this year and already a fourth-grade martial master.
_In the entire jianghu, this was already considered a rare genius.
Her eyes fell upon Gu Shiyi, and she sighed softly in her heart.
_Even so, the chances of her younger brother reaching the seventh grade by the age of seventeen were still exceedingly slim.
_ “Father?”
_Just then, the youth ran over excitedly. The one-eyed martial master at his side showed a helpless expression and followed the youth over to Liu Qiong.
