Chapter 7, This Killer is a Bit Small (1)
Su Li was originally a passionate young man. When a training partner presented themselves, he thought, who else would I practice with if not you? He quickly said, "Alright, let's fight. But I must clarify beforehand that concealed weapons like darts or silver needles are not allowed. Since I intend to win, I want to win fairly. By the way, may I ask, what is your name, young lady?"
The little girl was momentarily at a loss for words
"Well done!" Su Li laughed heartily. The "Yin-Yang Gu" took advantage of the retreat to spin and launch an attack, immediately letting out a loud shout. With a swift motion, his left arm transformed into a manifestation of thunder, while his right hand shifted to embody the gentle, continuous spring rain, both striking at the Huayiwei Qi Sea acupoint, seemingly on the verge of success
"Of course, ghostly words should be spoken in the realm of ghosts," Su Li laughed heartily
Su Li paused for a moment, his expression unchanged, and said, "What about the second point?" The little girl, surprised by his lack of reaction to the words 'Gu Yi Lou', hesitated and replied, "I don't quite understand the second point either; I only said: join Gu Yi Lou, and make sure not to let him down."
"How can there be such a small assassin in the Ancient Style Building? This is truly deceiving people," Xue Xiaoyou said, shaking her head.
Although the little girl was innocent, she could still understand these words. She took out a silver needle from her bosom and chuckled, saying: "You can sleep however you like; if you are not afraid of dying in your own bed, then it matters not to me."
In ancient times, women were accustomed to speaking softly and thoughtfully, weighing their words carefully. Having been raised as gentlewomen, how could they ever encounter a rogue like Su Li?
Xiao You is unaware that, as the saying goes, a killer must be trained from a young age, and their mindset should be instilled early on. Moreover, the age range at Gu Yi Lou even includes young girls in their blossoming years, which clearly demonstrates their professionalism as the leaders in this field, Su Li lamented
How can the silver needle ... um ... My name is Hua Yiwei, wait, I mean ...
Su Li chuckled and said: "I am a thief, I am a thief, little sister, ahem... As for you staying, there is only one bed at the moment. I am rather foolish, and I do not know how two people should sleep in such a situation"
Although Hua Yiwei is young and inexperienced, her foundation in internal strength and practical combat experience is not something Su Li can compare to. At that moment, she let out a delicate cry, "Take the dice hand," just barely reaching her body, and was already shaken away by the long-accumulated internal strength. On the other side, she swiftly pointed at the seven-inch mark on Su Li's arm, and the gusts of wind generated by her sleeves caused Su Li's cheek to sting. As Su Li's forearm was slightly struck, he immediately felt a sense of soreness, numbness, and weakness.
Just now, I employed the commonly used fallacy of ignoring the minor point in debates. At this moment, Su Li could no longer wait for her to finish speaking and hastily said: "Alright! Miss Yi Wei, do you think in this round, I won or you lost? If you've figured it out, https://www.hetushu.com.com, then go ahead and make your move. What, are you still considering? Then you should have made your move first." Before the words 'make your move' could leave his lips, Su Li had already moved.
"Good!" Xue Qianlan exclaimed, noting that applying gambling techniques to martial arts is something that exists only in theory. To execute the appropriate move at the right moment requires the practitioner's instantaneous reaction to the situation. The move just used, "Dice Taking Hand," is the opening move of the Qianshen Three Styles. In gambling techniques, it emphasizes deceiving the audience, hence the swift execution, yet it conceals countless follow-up moves that must adapt to the opponent's actions. Now, Hua Yiwei is like a gambler sitting opposite Su Li; as long as she can completely deceive her in technique, it is not impossible to control her.

Xue Qianlan initially only allowed Su Li to try casually, but unexpectedly, Su Li comprehended it even faster than she had imagined!
"Hahaha, what a reason not to return." Su Li's thoughts were accurately captured, and after a brief display of surprise, she smiled and said, "Interesting, interesting; the thief indeed has some cunning. " Her heart was filled with even more confusion; why would that person send a naive little girl? Was it a test?
Xue Qianlan smiled and said: "Xiao Su, what harm is there in comparing with her? Have you forgotten what I told you the day I taught you gambling skills? I mentioned that gambling skills are not much different from martial arts. Winning through deception in gambling—just think, if you and Tushu used martial arts to deceive others, what would happen then?"
Su Li's move was merely a feint; he had long anticipated that Hua Yiwei would inevitably be flustered and dodge. His two fiery eyes fixed on her direction of escape, he saw her dart to the left and thought to himself that people indeed tend to lean left. Without missing a beat, his subordinate swung in a large arc, transforming his palm into a claw, resembling the 'dice-taking hand' in gambling, and swiftly swept towards Hua Yiwei's chest, seizing the initiative.
Su Li inhaled sharply, and even Grandma Xue could not help but feel startled. Although there had been suspicions earlier, speculation remained speculation; when the moment of confirmation arrived, there was still a lingering sense of dread.
Su Li laughed heartily upon hearing this. Truly, they are like sisters; both are adept with silver needles, and not only their actions but even their words are quite similar. By this reasoning, it is likely that in just a few years, this young lady's charm and grace will surpass that of her senior sister.
If I had known it would hurt this much, I wouldn't have played. The little girl muttered, If it weren't for that person instructing me to deliver two messages to you, I wouldn't have bothered to come to this dreadful place at all
The little girl instantly exclaimed in anger, "Who are you calling a thief!"
"Well, old lady, it turns out you were pretending to be asleep!" the little girl pouted, realizing.
Su Li was criticized for her shortcomings. She reflected that it was only by taking advantage of the element of surprise that she managed to catch her off guard earlier. Now that the other party is on guard, if a real fight were to break out, she feared that she might not be a match for this doll killer.
Did the Ancient Intent Pavilion take a liking to my eyes? Su Li recalled the words of the girl in red from the morning: "You truly see through it."
Su Li watched from the side, a cold smile forming in his heart. How could this girl possibly deceive the old fox, Grandma Qianshen, who had roamed the martial world for decades? It would take her several hundred more years to even think about it. However, he was also curious about their intentions, as they had sent such a young girl to dare to encroach upon his territory; he feared there might be ulterior motives.
"By the way, who is the person you mentioned?" Su Li ignored her and asked seriously
"Grandma, where do you find someone who encourages others to fight like this?" Xue Xiaoyou knew that Su Li had never learned any martial arts, and couldn't help but feel a bit worried
"Do you expect to stay without paying?" Su Li said impatiently, releasing the little girl's hands. Xue Qianlan understood and smiled, letting the little girl go.
"Are you letting me go?" The little girl seemed to doubt it in her eyes
"Grandma! You scared me! Xiao You thought something had happened to you," Xue Xiao You sighed in relief and said happily
Su Li shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "I understand. Allow me to think it over; you may return now"
Xue Qianlan sighed and thought to herself, if Su Li's internal strength were not weaker than Hua Yiwei's, then just now with the move "Dice Hand," it would have been a perfect opportunity to strike the enemy amidst the chaos
"Yes, just stay overnight. That person said https://www.hetushu.com. If I finish speaking and you still let me go, it must be a trick to secretly follow me. If that's the case, I won't need to come back." The little girl stated with precision.
The little girl disdainfully said: "How could you possibly be worthy of knowing his name? Ouch, ouch, ouch, hmph, I won't tell you even if it kills me. Anyway, the first thing he wants to convey to you is: the hunting by the Ancient Intent Pavilion has already begun."
"Xiao Su, I often advised you to learn some martial arts for self-defense, and now you are suffering the consequences," Xue Qianlan said with a smile.
Xue Qianlan shook her head and said in a low voice, "Xue Xiaoyou, you need not worry. With Grandma here, how could Su Li possibly be harmed by a little girl?" Hearing this, Xue Xiaoyou finally relented
Hua Yiwei, being still young, felt a slight anger rise, bringing a faint flush to her cheeks. Her mind was already in disarray when she saw Su Li strike with a flat palm. Before she could even utter a word of "shameless," she was momentarily at a loss as to whether she should retaliate, and could only dodge to the left.
However, a little girl beside her let out a cold snort and said, "So what if you are older? What is so great about being an adult? You may be older than me, but can you beat me?" She pointed her slender little finger at Su Li.
Having been caught red-handed by Xue Qianlan, Su Li could only respond with a wry smile: "What you say is true, Grandma Xue. In the future, I will definitely strengthen my body and practice the Xue family's daily exercise routine."
Upon reflection, his gaze wandered incessantly around the little girl, the unusual brilliance emanating from him startling her into a state of goosebumps
