Chapter 53: Washing the Classics and Hacking at the Marrow

  Jiang Xu originally thought that Xu Xinyan might be busy for a few days before calling him again, but Jiang Xu underestimated Xu Xinyan's enthusiasm for learning martial arts.

  Because on the second day early in the morning when the sky was still a little bright, Jiang Xu had already received Xu Xinyan's phone call.

  Jiang Xu was in the middle of his cultivation when he received a phone call. He could only helplessly stop his cultivation and change into casual clothes before heading out towards the municipal party committee residential area.

  As soon as Jiang Xu walked out of the compound's gate, he saw Xu Xinyan's lovely figure from afar.

  Xu Xinyan was not wearing a crisp police uniform, but instead wore a soft white tracksuit. Her long hair was tied back in a simple knot, and her face had no makeup or embellishments, giving off an elegant and refined impression, like a delicate jade carving.

  Xu Xinyan is indeed very beautiful, and even compared to Zou Rong and Xiao Zi Qing, she will not lose half a point. Moreover, her figure is extremely good, giving people a very healthy and beautiful feeling. The parts that should be big are absolutely not small, and the parts that should be small are absolutely not big.

  "Jiang Xu, did I call you too early?" Xue Xinyan asked with some embarrassment as she watched Jiang Xu approach.

  Jiang Xu said, "It's okay, at least it didn't happen when I was sleeping."

  Generally, whenever Xu Xinyan makes a phone call, Jiang Xu is probably not asleep. Since practicing the Emperor's Soul Scripture, Jiang Xu has almost forgotten what it feels like to sleep.

  "You promised me something yesterday, you didn't forget, did you?" Xǔ Xīnyán asked somewhat nervously.

  "Do you think I can forget?"

  Jiang Xu somewhat speechlessly responded with a sound, then directly pointed to a distant quiet small garden and said: "Let's go, it's quieter over there, I'll teach you again when we get there."

  After that, Jiang Xu led the way to the small garden, and Xu Xinyan followed behind him with a red face.

  This small garden is a pretty good place for Jiang Xu, because there are usually no people coming here, it's a great place to practice martial arts.

  Jiang Xu walked into the thicket, then said to Xu Xinyan: "Captain Xu, let me see your skills first. I'll defend, you attack. If you can force me back one step, that's considered a win for you."

  "Good."

  Xu Xinyan also wanted to see Jiang Xu's skills, so she agreed without much hesitation.

  She didn't have confidence that she could defeat the mysterious and unpredictable Jiang Xu, but if it was just a matter of forcing Jiang Xu back one step, she thought there might still be some chance.

  "I'm going to make my move, you be careful."

  With a loud cry, Xu Xinyan's body shot towards Jiang Xu like a leopard.

  Xu Xinyan was a top graduate of the police academy, her skills were exceptional, in her class, almost no male student could be her opponent, even many instructors were defeated by her.

  Looking at Xu Xinyan's lithe figure, Jiang Xu's eyes also flashed with a hint of admiration.

  With Xi Xinyan's skills, it's likely that even a dozen or so big men wouldn't be able to beat her.

  However, Xu Xinyan's moves in Jiang Xu's eyes were still a bit weak. No matter what attacking method Xu Xinyan used or what combat skills she employed, Jiang Xu's body was like Mount Tai, remaining unmoving and unshaken.

  Xu Xinyan, on the other hand, was getting more and more frightened as she fought, looking at Jiang Xu's steady and imposing figure, she felt an inexplicable sense of defeat in her heart, she felt that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't push Jiang Xu back even half a step.

  "Alright, I give up, I won't fight anymore."

  Xu Xinyan had no choice but to admit defeat, as she felt numbness in both arms and continuing the fight would give her absolutely no chance of winning.

  At this moment, Xu Xinyan also truly confirmed her guess that Jiang Xu was not only good at martial arts, but his skills were also extremely terrifying.

  This also made Xu Xinyan even more curious, she really couldn't connect the current Jiang Xu with that ignorant and arrogant second-generation rich kid.

  Jiang Xu also put down his hand and said, "Your skills are not bad, but your martial arts foundation is zero. Moreover, your body's bone structure has already taken shape, and you have missed the best golden age for learning martial arts. Even if I teach you now, you probably won't be able to improve much."

  What Jiang Xu said is not false. The way of martial arts cannot be achieved overnight, especially the inner power, which requires a long period of practice to achieve some small success.

  Even if it were Jiang Xiu himself, without cultivating soul energy, he would not be able to truly wield his countless martial arts skills, and even with the Emperor's Soul Scripture, he would have to spend a tremendous amount of time and effort to cultivate it.

  "Ah..."

  Xu Xinyan's heart was tangled, her beautiful eyes suddenly turned slightly red, and were filled with a disappointed and helpless expression, as she asked: "Jiang Xu, is there really no other way?"

  "There is a way."

  Jiang Xu's tone paused slightly, then he said seriously: "I can help you wash your bones and marrow, but you will have to endure pain that ordinary people cannot bear, and even, you may not be able to bear it."

  Jiang Xu's plan was actually prepared for Tie Mo.

  Although Tie Mo had some foundation in martial arts, it was still very weak. Jiang Xu naturally couldn't let Tie Mo spend ten or twenty years starting from the basics, so he planned to help Tie Mo wash his bones and marrow, allowing Tie Mo's future cultivation to progress by leaps and bounds, and his strength to be greatly enhanced in a short period of time.

  With Tie Miao's physical fitness, Jiang Xu was not worried that he could not bear the pain of washing his bones and marrow, but Xu Xinyan's words might be a bit more difficult.

  However, Xu Xinyan was unwilling to give up like this. For her dream in her heart, she had to try no matter what.

  She barely hesitated before responding: "I can endure it, no matter how great the pain, I am willing to give it a try."

  "You can try it out too, just...". Jiang Xu didn't continue speaking, or rather, he was thinking about how to continue.

  "Jiang Xu, is there anything else?"

  Xu Xinyan's beautiful eyes stared tightly at Jiang Xu, afraid that Jiang Xu would say another answer that she could not accept.

  Jiang Xu thought for a moment and finally said truthfully: "There is one, when performing the Bone Marrow Washing Technique, you must... must be naked in order to proceed."

  Jiang Xu still had some things he didn't say, and when the time came, Xu Xinyan wouldn't just be stripped naked, but she would also likely encounter some sensitive areas on her body during the process of washing and scrubbing.

  Xu Xinyan was taken aback for a moment, and then her pretty face turned red again.

  How dare she be naked in front of a man, even if it's for learning martial arts, she wouldn't have dared to do something so shameful.

  "Jiang Xu, can you wear underwear?"

  Xu Xinyan's voice had already dropped to a level that couldn't be any lower, this was her limit, if it didn't work out, she could only give up.

  "Okay."

  Jiang Xu nodded very crisply, wearing underwear actually doesn't have much of an impact, mainly it's just that at the time there will be some physical contact in certain places, which should be quite embarrassing.

  Xu Xinyan felt a sense of relief in her heart, if it was like this, she could barely accept it, but she still didn't make an immediate decision, after all, it was such a shameful thing, she still needed to think carefully about it.

  It wasn't until several minutes later that Xǔ Xīnyán finally made her final decision.

  "Jiang Xu, I... I am willing to undergo the Bone Marrow Cleansing."

  Xu Xinyan tried her best to stabilize her emotions and tone, but her voice was getting weaker and weaker, and her small face seemed to be covered with a thick layer of crimson rouge, red to the point where it couldn't get any redder.

  Seeing Xu Xinyan nod in agreement, Jiang Xu said directly: "Your body is still a bit weak now and can't bear the pain of washing your bones. I'll teach you a set of physical exercises first, practice well for these few days, and when I come back from the capital in a few days, I'll help you with the bone marrow cleansing."

  "Jiang Xu, are you going to Beijing in a few days?" Xǔ Xīnyán asked with some surprise.

  "Uh, some things might require staying in Beijing for a few more days."

  Jiang Xu's answer was relatively simple, as for what his purpose was in going to Beijing, he chose to conceal it.

  Xu Xinyan didn't ask further, but instead said: "I also need to go back to Beijing this weekend. If you're still in Beijing then, I'll treat you to a meal, how about that?"

  Xu Xinyan's grandfather lives in Beijing, and her grandfather has been very fond of her since she was a child. So whenever she is free, she will make it a point to return to Beijing to visit her grandfather.

  "Alright, no problem."

  Jiang Xu naturally wouldn't refuse Jiaren's invitation.
