I was reborn after cheating on the aloof and powerful man.

Chapter 130 The Mental Breakdown After Being Criticized

"My dear granddaughter, stop chasing. Grandpa really doesn't have any cough syrup."

"Chicken broth? You old geezer! Don't think I'll let you off just because you're spouting nonsense. Put down the people you're holding! I might consider leaving you with a whole corpse!"

In the dangerous, dense forest, a dirty, bearded old man was carrying a person, jumping around as merrily as a nimble monkey.

Behind the old man, Qiu Shuying, who had caught up with him, was no longer the gentle and graceful woman she usually was. Her usually cunning and composed expression was twisted and ferocious with anger.

She had always been the one who deceived and manipulated others. This was the first time an old geezer had dared to trick her right under her nose and take away what belonged to her.

Damn it! ! !

The swift, flying kick was as light as a flower petal, yet contained powerful internal energy. With a crack, the thick tree that the old man had just stepped on instantly snapped, scattering wood chips everywhere.

"You scared me to death, my dear granddaughter! You've got amazing strength! Hey, that's interesting! Come on, catch up with me, whoever can't catch me is a grandson."

"Hey, you're my granddaughter, so it doesn't count. Whoever can't catch up is a little dog. Come on, bark a few times for Grandpa first."

"court death!"

Another sharp burst of internal energy grazed past her shoulder, and Fei Xi suspected that her left arm had been cut by the internal energy, feeling a tingling and cool sensation.

She now only regrets not being a turtle, for not having a shell to retreat into.

One is a ruthless psychopath, the other is a sarcastic old man. When two masters fight, can't they at least leave this poor soul who can't fight?

"My dear granddaughter, did you not eat or are you out of mana? Your aim is so bad. You look delicate, but I didn't expect you to be so weak."

"I thought you were really something because you barked louder than Grandpa's dog, but it turns out you're not even as good as a dog at biting people."

"Grandpa shouldn't have made you bark like a dog. You're not even as good as a dog."

"I am going to kill you!!!"

A murderous gust of wind arose, and in an instant, the world changed color. Birds and beasts seemed to sense the danger and fled wildly out of the dense forest.

Qiu Shuying stopped her pursuit, her sinister face revealing a chilling gaze as if she were looking at a dead person.

A violent and powerful internal energy emanated from beneath her feet, like water poured into hot oil. A fierce wind swept through the area, and the surrounding vegetation was shredded into dust.

Suddenly, she gathered her inner energy, and the internal energy around her was like an oil drum that had been ignited, instantly bursting into raging flames. With a devastating force, she kicked the old man.

"Die for me!!!"

……

The old man mumbled something, but Fei Xi didn't hear it; she was flying.

Ah, the sun is shining so brightly, the weather is so gentle... what a load of rubbish!

She knew the old man was deliberately trying to provoke Qiu Shuying.

When you reach a certain level of skill, what matters most when masters clash is their mindset.

Even if someone with poor martial arts skills learns a special technique, their entire body will be full of openings when they make a move. They might be able to bully some weak people, but they won't be able to get past a true master in a single round.

When masters fight, it's not just about how strong their internal energy is or how powerful their moves are.

It depends more on their application and execution of techniques, that is, their aptitude and talent in martial arts.

This is why, even with the same martial arts skills, some people who study for a lifetime may still lose to someone who only studies for a month.

True masters are all quite knowledgeable about their own martial arts, and they don't leave many openings for their opponents when they make moves or counter moves.

So what determines victory or defeat is often just a fleeting moment of opportunity.

An unstable mindset is a major taboo in combat!

Fei Xi didn't recognize the old man.

But when he fell into Qiu Shuying's hands, he was used by Qiu Shuying as a tool, a "grandpa" who was unconscious. Fei Xi suspected that he was really poisoned.

We don't know how he suppressed the poison in his body.

So after Qiu Shuying caught up, the old man deliberately provoked and mocked her repeatedly, all in order to break Qiu Shuying's mentality and find a momentary opportunity to finish the battle quickly!

As she fell, Fei Xi spotted a dense branch, flipped over, and grabbed it tightly.

Still full of energy, Fei Xi's flight finally came to an end, at the cost of scrapes and abrasions all over her hands and feet.

After settling into her seat on the tree branch, Fei Xi immediately looked toward the battlefield between the two.

The Taoyuan School's Flying Flower Kick is sharp and graceful, like peach blossoms flying everywhere, making it impossible to defend against.

At this moment, with Qiu Shuying's powerful internal energy supporting her, the earth trembled and the sky cracked wherever she stepped, killing gods and Buddhas alike!

After throwing Fei Xi out, the old man's body was as slippery as an eel. He didn't make a single move, relying entirely on his lightness skill to dodge every deadly move from Qiu Shuying.

"So you think you're so capable? Why are you hiding? You dog! Trash! Useless thing! You're not even worthy to lick my shoes, you lowly thing! I'll make you wish you were dead!"

While cursing loudly, Qiu Shuying kicked the old man like a storm, and in a few twists and turns, she blocked all of the old man's escape routes.

"Hey, my dear granddaughter, I'm Gou Dongxi, so aren't you Gou Dongxi's granddaughter, Gou Dongxi's granddaughter? You really want to see your grandpa's good stuff? Then you'll have to trade your most precious thing for it, like... pfft..."

Seeing that there was no way out, the old man's expression changed drastically. However, he still wouldn't let up and continued to argue.

Unfortunately, this time, he was no longer lucky; all the roads he took led to dead ends.

He was caught off guard and was instantly kicked in the chest by Qiu Shuying, spitting out a mouthful of blood before collapsing to the ground.

After succeeding, Qiu Shuying's lips curled up slightly. This kick had gathered all her strength. Even if a great immortal descended to earth, this old man would have no chance of survival!

Hmph, letting this old geezer die so easily is letting him off too easily.

She wanted to tear him to pieces, chop him into mincemeat, and feed him to the dogs!

With this thought in mind, Qiu Shuying stepped forward, intending to take the old man's corpse back to the dilapidated temple. She planned to use a knife to slowly shave him into a human stump, only then could she quell the deep hatred in her heart.

Just as her hand was about to touch the old man's coarse clothes, a fleeting intuition flashed through her mind about how she had survived so many years of teetering on the edge of danger.

Unfortunately, while my consciousness reacted, my body was a beat too slow.

The old man on the ground suddenly opened his eyes, his palm striking with lightning speed and overwhelming force!

The powerful palm strike, like an angry thunderbolt from the sky, came rushing in with a roar and swift force towards Qiu Shuying.

Qiu Shuying only had time to use her internal energy to protect her chest before she was sent flying far away by a palm strike.

"Pah! If you want to see Grandpa's moves, you'll have to risk your life."

Spitting out the remaining blood in his mouth, the old man wiped his lips, ignoring how the blood had stained his gray beard red.

He cautiously moved forward, preparing to deliver the final blow to Qiu Shuying, who was lying motionless on the ground in the distance, to ensure that nothing went wrong.

Those who leave without checking whether the enemy is dead or not are planting a huge time bomb for their future selves.

Of course, a cunning and shrewd man like him wouldn't make such a basic mistake.

……

Fei Xi, who had settled firmly on the tree branch, watched as the old man was knocked down and then fought back to kill Qiu Shuying. Her heart pounded as she watched the old man live and die, die and live again.

Of course, she hoped the old man would win. Qiu Shuying was both perverted and crazy; since the other party in the temple wanted to feign innocence, she could only follow suit and pretend to be innocent.

Although Fei Xi knew that Qiu Shuying wouldn't kill her easily, her experience of falling into Qiu Shuying's hands in her past life made Fei Xi want to stay as far away from this person as possible. She had no reason to expect Qiu Shuying to take her away after winning.

Fei Xi had no idea who the old man in front of her was.

For some reason, Fei Xi felt a sense of familiarity with him, and even the old man's less-than-honorable fighting style gave Fei Xi a feeling that the old man was really funny.

Seeing that the old man had won, Fei Xi slid down from the tree in a flash.

But seeing that the old man was about to finish off Qiu Shuying, Fei Xi hurriedly ran towards him, shouting at the top of her lungs as she ran.

"Grandpa, you can't kill her!"

"Ok?"

Just then, the clear sky, which had been cloudless, suddenly became overcast with dark clouds and a howling wind arose.

The earth shook violently, and the whole world trembled before Fei Xi's eyes. A bottomless chasm split open in the ground right in front of her!

A natural disaster struck; a massive earthquake devastated thousands of miles, leaving no trace of human remains.

The birds and beasts in the dense forest weren't scared away by Qiu Shuying's special move; they sensed that the most desperate future was just around the corner and ran away for their lives in terror!
