Chapter 381: [380] Brother-in-law Did Something Extraordinary

Hall of Daily Life.

This extravagant palace, over a hundred meters tall, is divided into ten floors, equipped with all kinds of facilities, and the decoration is extremely luxurious.

To put it bluntly, this is a miniature independent kingdom.

At this moment.

Second floor of the palace.

In a large temperature-controlled swimming pool with an area of over a thousand square meters.

A small figure is swimming underwater like a fish.

It is Qian Changyun.

Yesterday, Qian Yiqing and his wife had already left the subsidiary hall of the Red Armor Hall, while these children stayed here as guests.

"Splash~"

The sound of water waves keeps coming.

The decoration of this swimming pool seems to be not particularly luxurious, with only a huge relief carved on the bottom of the pool and murals painted on the pool walls.

In fact, its existence itself is an extremely extravagant thing.

The reason is simple—Water Anomalies!

In this world, as long as the water area reaches a certain level, there is a probability of invisible water anomalies appearing in the water.

Once a water anomaly appears, not to mention going into the water, even approaching it may be dragged into the water by the water anomaly and drown to death.

Therefore, in this world, every child has heard the phrase countless times—never go near rivers and lakes!

In order to prevent the birth of water anomalies, there is a large-scale array hidden in the relief on the bottom of the pool in the palace, which can counter water anomalies.

The cost of this array alone is enough to build hundreds of swimming pools.

This is extravagance beyond ordinary people's imagination.

"Splash~"

The sound of water waves increased.

Qian Qingqing stood by the pool, frowned slightly, and said in a crisp voice, "Changyun, your swimming rhythm is off, be more serious!"

Qian Changyun, wearing a breathing apparatus underwater, obediently said, "Oh."

This child dare not be careless.

Because as long as his sister is not satisfied, she will definitely pick up a stick and beat him, and after she finishes beating, he will have to start over again.

Including his parents, no one will speak up for him. In other words, he will just get beaten for no reason.

Qian Changyun muttered in his heart, "I wish there was a water anomaly," and could only endure the soreness of his muscles, and tried hard to correct his somewhat disordered movements.

The little girl glanced at him and reminded, "Bring your legs slightly inward, don't swing your legs too much, and focus on feeling the wonderful rhythm of the fluid."

Qian Changyun took a heavy breath and quickly followed her instructions, while trying his best to feel the sensation of the water flowing through his body.

With the help of the mask of the apparatus, he did feel a strange sense of harmony, faintly feeling like he was merging into the water.

The child's swimming posture unconsciously changed subtly, the swimming speed slightly increased, and the movements became more effortless.

Qian Qingqing keenly noticed this scene and nodded in satisfaction: "Not bad! According to the current progress, you can master the first form, 'Fish Swimming Form,' of the 'Sky Ling Technique' within half a month."

Upon hearing "half a month," Qian Changyun's face involuntarily twitched, filled with immense regret.

Why am I so foolish?

I fell into my sister's trap!

Yesterday, this child was asked a question by his sister: "Do you want to become a glorious Falcon pilot?"

Without hesitation, he answered, "Yes!"

Flying a Falcon in the sky is almost every child's dream.

Qian Changyun is no exception.

Then he saw his sister smiling and asked another question: "Cheng Han has created a Body Tempering technique called 'Sky Ling Technique,' which can help pilots better control Falcons. Do you want to learn it?"

This child responded excitedly, "I really want to!"

He knew that his brother-in-law was the most outstanding genius in the history of Tai'an Xiaoling Realm and was hailed as a rare talent in Xuan Palace for a thousand years.

Naturally, Qian Changyun had a strong interest in the technique created by his brother-in-law.

So, that's why this scene happened today.

After a while, Qian Changyun felt exhausted and gasped, saying, "Sister, can I take a break? Just a short one!"

Qian Qingqing glanced at him and firmly refused, "No! You still have untapped potential. Practice for another fifteen minutes."

She possessed the magical seal of the Valkyrie and had undergone a lot of rigorous training, so her understanding of the human body was quite deep.

Qian Changyun complained bitterly, "But I'm just a child!"

The little girl disdainfully said, "So what if you're a child? Cheng Han said that once you choose your path, you have to complete it even if you have to crawl!"

Two servants not far away couldn't help but show a hint of amusement upon hearing this.

Qian Changyun really wanted to say, "This is clearly a trick to make me choose this path. If you had told me earlier that training would be so difficult and tiring, I would never have agreed."

But this child also knew that saying such words would be a very foolish choice.

Doing so would only invite his sister's merciless "beating" and bring no benefits.

"Sigh!"

Qian Changyun sighed softly and had to squeeze out the strength from his body to continue swimming forward with all his might.

I'm just a seven-year-old child, still in the stage of growing my body, not even fully grown yet. Why do I have to undergo such cruel training?

Where is the justice in this world?!

Fifteen minutes.

Qian Changyun heard the long-awaited words, "Let's end today's training here."

He was overjoyed and struggled to move his extremely sore arms, floating up from underwater and swimming towards the edge of the pool.

The torment finally ended!

Qian Changyun swam laboriously to the side of a ladder, grabbing it with both hands, wanting to climb up.

But the child found that his arms were extremely weak and he couldn't exert any strength at all.

He looked to the nearby servants for help, hoping they could lend him a hand.

However...

Qian Changyun heard a stern voice saying, "Climb up by yourself!"

In his heart, the child muttered "mean lady," and trembling with his hands and feet, he struggled to climb to the edge of the pool.

A servant holding a towel quickly approached and dried the water stains off Qian Changyun's body.

Qian Changyun hurriedly said, "Thank you!"

Yesterday, when he first went into the water and received the service, he forgot to say thank you and was scolded by his sister several times. How could he forget now?

Qian Qingqing thought for a moment and smiled, saying, "Have you noticed something? Even though you were so tired that you couldn't stand steady, you were still able to swim freely underwater just now."

Qian Changyun suddenly realized, "I'm almost getting the hang of the fish-style swimming!"

Qian Qingqing nodded, "Yes!"

The little girl encouraged him again, "You've been training very hard!"

She knew very well that a large part of the credit should be attributed to the special mask invented by Cheng Han, which was the "suction of fish swimming."

But there was no need to mention this, so as not to undermine the child's confidence.

Qian Changyun immediately grinned.

He suddenly felt that all his efforts had paid off.

Qian Qingqing changed the topic again, "Do you know the significance of the Lingkong Body Technique?"

Qian Changyun shook his head in confusion.

After all, he was still young and didn't think deeply about many things.

The little girl smiled slightly and reminded him from the side, "The Nine Yuan Strong Body Technique requires the condensation of the Source Sensing Seal to practice formally. If an ordinary person practices it recklessly, there is a high probability of injuring the body."

Qian Changyun suddenly realized, "I don't have the Source Sensing Seal, but I can still practice the Lingkong Body Technique."

The child couldn't help but admire, "Brother-in-law is amazing!"

Although he didn't have much knowledge, he knew that creating a martial art that ordinary people could practice was a very, very impressive thing.

At least among so many warriors, even including Xuan Shi and Xuan Shi, none of them had the ability to do so.

Qian Qingqing began to explain, "When Cheng Han was establishing the Warhawk Legion in the Xuan Palace, he found that besides warriors, a small number of sealers who had practiced the Nine Yuan Martial Arts could also become pilots.

"The difference is that the reaction speed of sealers is slightly slower, and they don't have the ability to control the Warhawk to perform too complicated movements.

"Since then, Cheng Han realized that although the Nine Yuan Martial Arts were good, they were not suitable for pilots."

Qian Changyun imitated an adult's tone and said, "Indeed, for example, the Dengque Style is useless for the Warhawk."

The little girl continued, "So, Cheng Han drew on the Nine Yuan Martial Arts and created the Lingkong Body Technique, which is more suitable for cultivating pilots."

Qian Changyun nodded heavily, "I understand! In the past, only warriors were suitable to be pilots, but warriors are only a minority. On average, there is only one person out of two hundred.

"Now that sealers are learning the Lingkong Body Technique, the probability of becoming a pilot has greatly increased, and the number of sealers is dozens of times that of warriors. This means that the difficulty of cultivating pilots has been greatly reduced."

The child finally understood the significant meaning behind it, "Brother-in-law has done something really amazing."

Qian Qingqing glanced at her brother and added, "It is said that the creator of the Nine Yuan Martial Arts is a Xuan Du-level powerhouse."

Qian Changyun's eyes widened in surprise: "So you're saying that my brother-in-law is even more powerful than Xuan Du?"

The little girl shook her head and corrected him: "Xuan Du may not be as powerful, but Cheng Han's understanding of the human body's mysteries may be on par with Xuan Du's, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to create the Ling Kong Technique."

Qian Changyun praised without reservation: "My brother-in-law is truly a super genius."

Qian Qingqing's tone became serious: "The reason I've said so much is mainly to tell you that you have now become one of the first people to come into contact with the Ling Kong Technique."

"This is an important opportunity in your life, and I hope you don't miss it, and more importantly, don't disappoint Cheng Han's efforts."

Qian Changyun's mind heated up and he blurted out, "Sis, don't worry, if I can't master the Ling Kong Technique, you can do whatever you want to me."

As soon as the words were spoken...

This child regretted it instantly, feeling remorse in his heart.

Why did I speak without thinking?

Oh no, now I've fallen into the hands of the wicked stepmother, haven't I?

Qian Qingqing nodded and said, "Alright, I'll remember!"

Qian Changyun had a mournful expression on his face: "What I said just now..."

The little girl narrowed her eyes and interrupted unceremoniously, "What do you mean? You're going back on your words so quickly?"

As she spoke, she intentionally or unintentionally weighed the Ling Xuan Wood in her hand.

This was clearly a threat.

Qian Changyun trembled with fear and quickly said, "I mean it! Of course I mean it!"

This child understood very well that if he dared to say he didn't mean it, the wicked stepmother would definitely use "how dare you play me" as an excuse to give him a good beating.

Qian Qingqing nodded in satisfaction, "Let's go, you shouldn't sit for too long. Go change your clothes first, then take a walk with me in the garden."

Qian Changyun obediently stood up and went to the changing room to change into a new set of clothes.

As the child followed his sister towards the garden, he changed the topic: "Sis, I heard from the servants that the Tianyun Hall of the Xuan Palace has detained a group of craftsmen from the Science and Demon Research Institute."

The Xuan Palace had established branch halls in Taian, and the Science and Demon Research Institute was no exception, dispatching many craftsmen to travel by airship to Taian.

This time, a portion of the craftsmen were maliciously detained, clearly another act of retaliation by the Tianyun Hall.

This matter had spread widely in the branch halls, even children had heard of it.

It was evident that the conflict between the two sides had escalated to a certain extent.

Qian Changyun was a little worried, "Many people say that the wind has changed in the Xuan Palace, which is quite unfavorable for my brother-in-law."

Qian Qingqing responded with a question, "Do you think Cheng Han has a long-term vision?"

Qian Changyun nodded, "Of course he does! My brother-in-law even thought of training seal bearers to become pilots, and he created such a powerful Ling Kong Technique. There are few people in the entire Qinghan Xuan Palace who can compare to my brother-in-law."

The little girl asked again, "Then think again, for someone with such a long-term vision and who always plans before taking action, do you think he doesn't have a countermeasure?"

Qian Changyun was convinced, "He definitely does."

Qian Qingqing snorted, "If I'm not mistaken, Cheng Han must be intentionally not taking action, allowing certain people to stir up trouble."

"When the time is right, he will definitely give these people a heavy lesson."

Qian Changyun completely believed his sister's words, "My brother-in-law is the most amazing."
