The Secret to Picking Up Girls

"Ah Shui, are you alright? Ah Shui?" Seeing Zhang Yuze like this, Chen Liqiong felt extremely sad. Anyone who saw their beloved turn into this state would feel very bad.

Just as Chen Liqiong was feeling a little uneasy, the strange man didn't let her off so easily, waving the sword in his hand and slashing down at Chen Liqiong again.

At this moment, Xuan Ling, Ling Wei, the Dragon King, and the others were also struggling to protect themselves. Even if they wanted to find a way to help her, it was too late.

Chen Liqiong's breath hitched, feeling immense pressure on her body, but at this moment, she closed her eyes, resigned to death. Looking at Zhang Yuze, whose face was pale in her arms, she suddenly thought that even if she died, being able to die together with the person she loved wasn't such a bad thing.

Chen Liqiong closed her eyes, ready to face death, when suddenly she was pushed aside by a great force. Chen Liqiong felt the pressure on her body ease and opened her eyes in surprise. She found a tall figure standing in front of her, stubbornly protecting her. This person's back looked so familiar.

"Ah Shui!" Chen Liqiong looked at Zhang Yuze in astonishment.

Zhang Yuze gently pushed out his hand, stirring up boundless torrents that fiercely rushed towards the strange man in front of him.

"Boom!" With a sound, a boundless energy, centered on Zhang Yuze and Takahashi Nakasato, swept out in all directions, forming a terrifying storm.

"Ugh…" Xuan Ling, the Dragon King, Chen Yuanzong, and the others were caught off guard and struck by this torrent, sending them flying backward. They spat out several mouthfuls of blood in the air.

Ling Wei was better off because she had been prepared beforehand and was standing further away. However, the boundless energy still left her feeling extremely shocked.

The strange man seemed surprised that Zhang Yuze could block his attack, staring intently at Zhang Yuze's face, and said, "Very good, take another hit from me."

Just as the strange man was about to attack, Zhang Yuze spoke.

"Cough… Cough… Old friend, it's been so many years, I didn't expect your temper to have grown so much," Zhang Yuze said, covering his mouth, his voice somewhat weak.

"What… you call me old friend, do you know who I am? Then tell me… who am I?" The strange man's expression was somewhat panicked, as if he had encountered something incredible.

Seeming to have heard the movement, Chen Liqiong suddenly opened her eyes, and seeing Zhang Yuze wake up, she was very happy, looking at Zhang Yuze and asking, "Ah Shui, are you alright now?"

Zhang Yuze shook his head, feeling that his head was a little heavy, and asked Chen Liqiong curiously, "How many days have I been asleep?"

Seeing Zhang Yuze wanting to sit up, Chen Liqiong quickly helped him, and said to him seriously, "You have been unconscious for three days."

"Oh!" Zhang Yuze shook his head, finally recalling what had happened before. Thinking about it, Zhang Yuze quickly looked at Chen Liqiong and asked, "Have the people from Tianmen left?"

Chen Liqiong nodded to Zhang Yuze and said, "Yes, the people from Tianmen have all left, and that strange man was also driven away by you."

"Driven away by me?" Zhang Yuze was stunned when he heard this. When did he become so awesome that he could drive away that strange man? But soon, Zhang Yuze knew what was going on, this should be done by his predecessor. Only he had such ability. Zhang Yuze didn't know how powerful the strange man was, but he knew that this strange man was definitely many times more awesome than Chen Yuanzong. Only the help from his predecessor would have such an effect. Although Zhang Yuze knew what the situation was, he didn't intend to reveal it.

Thinking about it, Zhang Yuze said to Chen Liqiong, "Liqiong, Xiaoyao Manor should be fine now, right?"

Chen Liqiong nodded to Zhang Yuze and smiled, "Ah Shui, thank you, Xiaoyao Manor is fine now. If it weren't for you, we don't know what would have happened to Xiaoyao Manor!"

Zhang Yuze smiled and nodded to Chen Liqiong, saying, "Haha, with our relationship, isn't it too polite to say these things."

Chen Liqiong's ears turned red when she heard Zhang Yuze's words. Zhang Yuze's words were too ambiguous. Although Chen Liqiong and Zhang Yuze had feelings for each other, their relationship was tacit. They hadn't spoken it out. Now that Zhang Yuze was being so explicit with Chen Liqiong, she couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

"Ah Shui, you should rest first. When you get better, my family will thank you properly!" Chen Liqiong said with a sweet smile to Zhang Yuze.

Hearing this, Zhang Yuze suddenly thought of something and asked Chen Liqiong, "Liqiong, are Uncle Chen and Grandpa alright now?"

Chen Liqiong smiled at Zhang Yuze and said, "Yuze, thank you for your concern, my father and Grandpa are both fine. They only suffered a little injury, but I think they should recover soon after some rest."

Zhang Yuze nodded when he heard this, feeling relieved.

In the next few days, Zhang Yuze recuperated in Xiaoyao Manor. No one came to find him these days, not even Xuan Ling came to see him, the great benefactor. Logically speaking, Zhang Yuze had done a great favor to the entire Xiaoyao Manor. If it weren't for him, the entire Xiaoyao Manor would have ceased to exist, but until now, no one had come to visit him, the great benefactor, which was indeed a bit strange. But after thinking about it carefully, Zhang Yuze realized that there was only one reason, and that was that many people in the entire Xiaoyao Manor, including Ling Wei, were recuperating.

At night, Zhang Yuze was using the energy in his body to heal his injuries, and streams of energy rose from Zhang Yuze's body. Suddenly, he felt that the true energy in his body was a little disobedient. Two strange energies rushed out of his body. Although these two energies were not much compared to Zhang Yuze's own energy, their destructive power was very strong. For a time, Zhang Yuze couldn't do anything about these two energies. He could only let them run rampant. Although Zhang Yuze also wanted to expel these two energies from his body, he tried many methods, but he was still powerless. Several times he tried to clear these energies out of his body, but all ended in failure, which made Zhang Yuze feel extremely depressed. Gradually, the energy in Zhang Yuze's body became a mess. What made him feel a little horrified was that his body was even unable to move for a while.

"Qi Deviation!" The word popped up in Zhang Yuze's mind. If there was no external force now, Zhang Yuze would probably have to suffer.

Of course, Zhang Yuze was not a person who gave up easily, and he still worked tirelessly, mobilizing the energy in his body to eliminate the two energies remaining in his body. But he tragically discovered that the energy in his body was gradually becoming disobedient. In his sea of consciousness, Zhang Yuze kept calling out to his predecessor, hoping that he could appear as before in his most difficult time and help him out. But no matter how he called, there was no response.

"Damn, won't he just watch me die?" Zhang Yuze thought helplessly.

Of course, Zhang Yuze didn't know that it wasn't that the other party didn't want to save him, but that he had consumed too much energy in the battle with the strange man just now. He was currently recovering, so how could he help him.

Gradually, Zhang Yuze felt that his body was becoming more and more out of his control. Just as he was feeling a little desperate. He felt that someone had come to his side, and a faint fragrance wafted into his nose. Someone placed their palm tightly on his back, and pure energy entered his body.

This person's energy seemed to be very large. After receiving this person's help, under Zhang Yuze's own guidance, Zhang Yuze finally gradually restored the energy in his body to its proper place. He didn't know when that person left, but after helping Zhang Yuze gain control of his body, that person quietly left.

Although everything was back on track, it took Zhang Yuze four days to recover from the injuries in his body.

Zhang Yuze opened his eyes and saw Chen Liqiong standing in front of him.

Letting out a long sigh, Zhang Yuze stretched out his arm, feeling that his body was much better. His body was finally almost recovered.

"Ah Shui, are you alright?" Chen Liqiong looked at Zhang Yuze in surprise.

Zhang Yuze nodded and said to Chen Liqiong, "Liqiong, what day is it?"

Although Zhang Yuze didn't know how many days had passed now, he still knew that some time should have passed while he was recovering.

Chen Liqiong nodded and said to Zhang Yuze, "Ah Shui, it's been four days, because I knew you were practicing, so I didn't dare to disturb you!"

Zhang Yuze nodded slightly. Suddenly, he thought of the person who helped him. Smelling the scent, it was obviously a girl. His heart moved, and he looked at Chen Liqiong and said, "Was it you, the girl who helped me heal my injuries?"
