The Urban Medical Martial Immortal

Capítulo 1287: Chapter 1280: Whatever You Say

“Anyone who can beat me so badly that I’ll be unable to care for myself probably hasn’t even been born yet!”

Lin Tian watched Xia Xiaobei slam the door shut, helplessly shrugged his shoulders, and murmured to himself, “So unreasonable! Believe it or not!”

“But… that day was indeed a strange moment!”

“It’s just that her innate ailment is truly rare and peculiar!”

As he pondered to himself, Lin Tian also returned to his room.

Tomorrow is Saturday; there are no classes during the day, and he only needs to go to the Astronomy Club at night.

Lin Tian has a keen interest in the Astronomy Club.

He had checked some information about Earth’s location.

But other than knowing the name Milky Way and some ambiguous image data, there was nothing else.

He wanted to borrow a telescope to see for himself the star domain in which Earth resides.

Sitting cross-legged at the head of the bed, after cultivating for a while, Lin Tian lay down and slept.

The next day.

Lin Tian got up early.

He jogged around the neighborhood near the Siheyuan, then returned and began practicing boxing in the courtyard.

Xia Xiaobei had not yet gotten up.

Lin Tian just used his Divine Sense to glance over; that girl was still wearing her nightgown, sprawled out in deep sleep.

He didn’t deliberately practice any particular boxing form; instead, he went through a set from start to finish, moving very slowly.

Slower than those old men practicing Tai Chi Boxing in the park!

Creak~

The door of the house opened.

Xia Xiaobei, still in her nightgown, half-closed her eyes and sleepily walked out, stretching her arms towards the sky that already carried a hint of chill.

Her graceful figure, with curves fully outlined, was exquisitely prominent.

“It’s really autumn!”

Looking at the courtyard with a row of Chinese toon trees already shedding their withered yellow leaves, Xia Xiaobei couldn’t help but mutter.

Very soon, however, she noticed someone else in the courtyard.

A figure slowly practicing an odd form of boxing among the garden’s flowers and trees.

“You rogue landlord, what are you doing?”

Xia Xiaobei walked up, full of curiosity, and after sizing up Lin Tian’s actions, couldn’t help but ask in surprise.

After the past few days, Xia Xiaobei had directly labeled Lin Tian as a rogue!

“Mind your words!”

Lin Tian glanced back, slightly frowned, and said, “And where are your eyes? Didn’t you see I’m practicing martial arts for fitness?”

“Hmph!”

With a pout, Xia Xiaobei snorted delicately and glared angrily at Lin Tian, looking as if she wished she could give him a good beating. It was clear she was still holding a grudge over earlier matters. Immediately, her beautiful eyes flashed with a trace of mischief, and she disparaged, “Is this your idea of martial arts for fitness? The old grandpas and grandmas in the park hit harder than you. Look at you, all soft and weak, barely good enough for a tickle. Total pretty boy!”

“Who are you calling a pretty boy?”

Lin Tian wasn’t having it, glaring at her with wide eyes, and said, “My punches may look soft, but if I really hit it hard, I could knock a bull flying!”

Indeed.

Lin Tian was merely slowing down his strikes, not lacking in power.

A single punch still held terrifying force!

“Knock a bull flying?”

Xia Xiaobei’s eyes widened in amazement. She glanced at Lin Tian’s slim build and then at his seemingly soft punches, rolled her eyes, and laughed mockingly, “Ah, my dear landlord, you can’t possibly knock a bull flying with that. But blowing one away with your breath, I might actually believe it!”

“Believe it or don’t!”

Lin Tian shrugged, uninterested in arguing with Xia Xiaobei, and continued practicing his boxing.

He clearly heard the sarcasm in her words, basically insinuating he was full of hot air!

But Lin Tian didn’t have time to argue with her, so he simply ignored it.

Seeing Lin Tian ignoring her, Xia Xiaobei huffed slightly, her beautiful eyes swirling in thought before joining in practicing Taekwondo right beside Lin Tian.

She was still in her nightgown, which made her movements quite inconvenient.

Nevertheless, she executed the moves quite adeptly, with plenty of power!

“Heh… Ha…”

She made energetic vocalizations with each move, full of vitality, coming from Xia Xiaobei’s mouth.

Judging by her stance, it was clear she’s been at Taekwondo for some time.

She could easily take down ordinary big men!

“Hmph! Landlord, see this? This is real martial arts practice!”

Xia Xiaobei proudly eyed Lin Tian, her gaze full of disdain and ridicule.

After having been taken advantage of by Lin Tian twice, she longed to teach him a lesson. Even taunting him would bring some satisfaction.

“Taekwondo?”

Lin Tian glanced at Xia Xiaobei’s moves, shook his head with a slight smile, and said, “What you’re doing here isn’t worth mentioning when it comes to fighting others; you’d probably hurt yourself first! As for fitness, it’s not much different from running!”

“What?!”

Xia Xiaobei stopped her actions, anger blooming on her face, and shouted, “This is Taekwondo, a globally popular martial art! It’s perfect for girls to practice, and when it comes to fighting, there’s nothing vague about it! If you don’t believe me, do you dare to spar with me?”

“Sure, but remember, if you get hurt, don’t blame me!”

Originally, Lin Tian didn’t want to deal with this girl, but her mocking demeanor made him uncomfortable, so he stopped what he was doing as well.

“As long as you said it!”

Xia Xiaobei’s eyes sparkled with excitement; with a shout, she kicked towards Lin Tian mid-air.

Boy, I finally have the chance!

Watch me give you an unforgettable lesson!

Xia Xiaobei was secretly thrilled, her foot aiming directly at Lin Tian’s face.

“Others say not to hit someone’s face, and you’re kicking straight at it!”

Watching Xia Xiaobei’s fierce kick, Lin Tian gritted his teeth, feeling a tinge of ruthlessness.

Slap~

With a crisp sound, Lin Tian easily swatted Xia Xiaobei’s attack away with one hand.

“You…”

Xia Xiaobei let out a sharp scream, hurriedly retracting her leg, a look of pain on her face.

Lin Tian shrugged, ignoring Xia Xiaobei’s accusations, and said, “Well, you lost! Shows that your Taekwondo is all for show!”

“I’ll keep going until you admit defeat!”

Xia Xiaobei’s eyes were wide with anger; she shouted and lunged at Lin Tian with a fist once more.

Though Taekwondo was insignificant to Lin Tian and rather mediocre compared to other martial arts,

it still packed a punch against ordinary people.

Therefore, Xia Xiaobei’s full-force attack was quite formidable.

“You’re serious? Well then, I won’t hold back!”

Seeing her relentless pursuit, Lin Tian swiftly caught her wrist with a lightning-fast move, twisting her arms behind her back.

This move left Xia Xiaobei no time to react before realizing she’d been restrained.

“Ah… Let me go! I’ll make you unable to take care of yourself!”

Xia Xiaobei was furious, screaming loudly.

“Alright, alright, you’re tougher than me, whatever you say! But if I let you go, don’t strike again!”

Lin Tian grimaced and prepared to release her.

There was just a misunderstanding between him and Xia Xiaobei, not a grudge. He merely wanted to teach her a lesson, not truly bully a little girl.
