At the abandoned building, Yi Han’s senior was teaching him how to navigate his qi to each part of his body, using it to increase the force for movement and fighting. Suddenly, the door opened. A man dressed as a woman walked in. It could be no one else but Lao Lao.
“Han Han, how’s your training?” The lesson had stopped immediately when Lao Lao entered the room.
“Master, I’m teaching him how to control his qi for moving and attacking. He’s still learning,” the boy who was teaching Yi Han reported to his master.
“Well then, Han Han, try attacking me,” said Lao Lao. He beckoned with his finger for Yi Han to attack him.
“I won’t go easy on you, Master.” Yi Han navigated his qi throughout his body and attacked Lao Lao. His right fist instantly shot forward to hit the man’s face. But Lao Lao smiled, then dodged to the right, his left hand squeezing the boy's buttocks before swiftly letting go. It startled Yi Han and stopped him dead for a moment.
“Hey!” Yi Han gave a start, placing his hands over his buttocks. His cheeks turned red because of embarrassment. The boy eyed Lao Lao, who was sniffing the hand that had touched Yi Han’s buttocks, looking like a lunatic.
“What are you looking at, Han Han? If I meant to kill you, you would have died,” Lao Lao warned the boy.
“Your attack was too obvious, easily predicted. You could die or be injured if your enemy was using a gun or knife on you at a close range.” Lao Lao explained Yi Han’s mistake. He switched from a dirty old man to an esteemed teacher in the blink of an eye.
“But you still shouldn’t have touched my butt like that,” Yi Han said, mentally cursing the master.
“In real life, there are only those who kill and those who are killed, Han Han. If you are still like this, you will never improve. And your revenge plan will never succeed,” said Lao Lao with a serious face. Though he acted like he was a lunatic who liked to prey on young boys, in truth, he just took slight advantage of them sometimes and teased them only so they would not be too stressed.
“I will remember that.” Yi Han folded his hands and bowed to Lao Lao. He could not refute the other party. The master’s words did make sense; theoretically at least.
“Good. Then, let’s continue,” Lao Lao got into position, preparing for the attack. Yi Han dashed toward the master again; however, he did not put all his force into his attack this time. He preserved some of it in case he wanted to change direction.
Lao Lao moved to his right again. But this time, Yi Han turned his right ankle, making his arm stretch to the right, directly in Lao Lao’s direction. Lao Lao only had to take a small step back to easily escape from the boy’s incoming arm. Yi Han had already predicted this, so he swept his left leg toward Lao Lao who was continually stepping back.
“Better. But still not good enough.” The master ducked. He swiftly moved to stand behind Yi Han and used his mouth to nip the boy’s nape.
“Ahh,” moaned the boy. Lao Lao tripped Yi Han's right leg which the boy had been using to support him, making him lose his balance and fall into Lao Lao’s embrace. Lifting Yi Han into his arms like a newlywed bride, Lao Lao pecked the boy’s forehead.
“Master, you are molesting me again.” Yi Han covered his neck and forehead with his hands immediately. He squirmed until he finally got out of Lao Lao’s arms.
“Hehehe, remember this, Yi Han. If I turned my kisses on your neck to a knife, you would be dead. My kiss on your forehead, as well. These are important points on the human body. So, until you have reached a level that I approve of, I will not allow you to take revenge on Bai Zhe.” Lao Lao continued to point out Yi Han’s mistakes from the fight of a moment.
“Bai Zhe is just a normal boy. He cannot harm me. I have my qi power. His arms might get broken if he tries to use them to cover himself,” Yi Han protested.
Lao Lao frowned when he heard the boy’s words. ‘Han Han is too reckless. He needs to train more. I should not let him go yet. I have a bad feeling about this,’ thought Lao Lao.
“You must listen to me, Yi Han. I forbid you from taking your revenge right now,” Lao Lao left the room immediately after speaking.
“Yi Han, you should listen to the master,” his senior warned.
“Then when? I will never claim victory over the master. If this continues, when will I have a chance to take my revenge, Senior?” The boy took his towel and prepared to take a shower.
“You don’t have to claim victory over the master. If he is sure that you can take care of yourself, he will let you do it. Don’t be so stubborn,” the senior warned him again, but Yi Han ignored him. He walked to the bathroom, leaving the senior to shake his head before he left the room.
“Master?” The senior started when he saw that Lao Lao was still at the front of the room and had been listening to their conversation.
“Like other teenagers, Han Han is impatient and stubborn. If I can’t stop him, I’ll have to let him learn from experience. If the boy named Bai Zhe is just an ordinary person, Yi Han will have his revenge. But from what his father told me, Yi Han only slapped the table to pick a fight with Bai Zhe. Then, he was in pain as if his body was being cut by knives. The hospital examination found that there was nothing wrong. I guess Bai Zhe is definitely not just an ordinary boy.” Lao Lao told the senior about his anxiety in regard to the boy named Bai Zhe.
“Maybe this boy has dark magic,” said the senior, looking around suspiciously.
“It is possible. Normal people don’t even know that qi power exists. I cannot guarantee that there is no such thing as magic. You need to keep an eye on Yi Han but don’t let him know. Bring him back here if he loses to that Bai Zhe boy. You must help him. Do not involve yourself in something you are not really sure about. Understood?” said Lao Lao.
“Yes, master,” agreed the senior before disappearing into the darkness.
Lao Lao went to his room. He thought about the boy named Bai Zhe. From his research on the boy, he found that Bai Zhe was filial to his parents. He worked for his tuition fees and helped them pay rent. However, Yi Han, who had everything, chose to bully Bai Zhe. He felt guilty about accepting Yi Han as his pupil. He would never have taught Yi Han the qi power if he had known about all this, but Yi Han had already called him his teacher. The only thing Lao Lao could do was ignore the fact that Yi Han had bullied Bai Zhe.
“I have to change his behaviour a bit. Otherwise, he will get himself into trouble in the future,” thought Lao Lao before walking to his room.
Yi Han sneaked out of the abandoned building Lao Lao used for training after showering and dressing. He could not wait to take revenge on Bai Zhe any longer. The boy did not realise that his senior was following him at a distance.
