Capítulo 24: Chapter 24: Late Delivery
"This technique is amazing! In just a couple of seconds, I have gathered the same amount of Qi I did in one hour before! If it continues like this, I'll make another breaktrough in just three days!"
...
After a couple of hours...
Mo Fan was still absorbing the Sun's Qi, this time he wasn't only using the Yang Swirling Secret Art, but the Black Swan Body Refining Technique as well: he had discovered that by using them both at the same time, he could strengthen his physique and absorb World Energy simultaneously.
But that wasn't the only benefit of doing so! In fact, when Mo Fan holds his breath, the Sun's Qi flows throughout all of his meridian network and muscles, making them always more and more suitable to take in the energy of the solar star.
However, the golden-haired boy has to stay focused in every movement that he does, since when he holds his breath, his acupuncture points close, not permitting him to absorb the Sun's Qi, and so forcing him to open some of them by pushing his own Qi against them to be able to continue absorbing the solar World Energy.
Why doesn't he open all of them, but just some? Well, the reason is actually simple: if he unlocks all of his acupuncture points to take in more Sun's Qi, then the results of the Black Swan Body Refining Technique's practice would be nearly none, as this exercise requires for them to be closed since, otherwise, all of the solar star's Qi wouldn't flow across the entirety of his body but just be absorbed by the Dantian. So, by only opening some of them, Mo Fan is able to keep the effects of both techniques, even if they are less than those of practicing them individually.
"Should I give this new method of mine a name?"
"Mhm..." Mo Fan began to deeply think about how to nominate it. "Since it makes my body adapt to the Sun's Qi and makes me more resistant to fire attack as well making my physique stronger, I guess that the name Sun Body Scripture would be pretty accurate for it."
...
Two days later...
"My body has become amazingly strong in just a couple of days! This Sun Body Scripture is incredible!"
"If I continue like this, I'll reach the 8th-" Mo Fan was saying before one ray of the sun blinded him, interrupting him and reminding him of something. "Shit! Yang Kai asked me for a sword the other day, and I promised him that I would have brought it to him yesterday!"
...
At Yang Kai's hut.
"Ohi, Yang Kai! I know that I am late, but I've brought you the sword you asked me for!" The golden-haired kid called the blue-haired one out, slowly reaching the door of the latter's hut.
~Knock~
~Knock~
"Are you there, Yang Kai?" Mo Fan asked as he continued to knock on the door.
"..." but despite the golden-haired kid knocking, nobody answered, and so he decided to enter the hut: once inside, Mo Fan didn't find anyone, he just saw that Yang Kai's bed was a little bit messy, meaning that he had recently woken up and left the hut.
"I'll just put the sword here, th-" the golden haired kid, giving up on finding him, decided to just leave the weapon on a table there, but when he was about to do so, he noticed that on it there was a note, and so he picked this up and read it:
To senior brother.
We have not met for many days now, junior brother misses you. I am inviting senior brother to the Black Wind Woods, I hope senior brother will not decline!
Junior brother, Su Mu.
Come if you have the guts!
"Sigh... this guy manages to always make new enemies every time..." Mo Fan sighed as he put the note on the table again. "And what's more, it's that spoiled kid of Su Mu this time..."
"Guess that I'll have to go help him this time..."
"Maybe I can even have a little revenge for all the times Su Mu and his friends didn't pay for their weapons!"
...
In the Black Wind Woods.
"Give him a good beating!" A black-haired guy with a ponytail shouted while he was beating up a kid with long purple hair, ordering a lot of other boys to assault a blue-headed kid.
The boys immediately rushed to him, only for one of them's face to be instantly hit by the fragments of a stone thrown by the blue-haired kid. "Argh! My face!"
"Eat my fist!" Not a single second passed that another guy was already there, trying to hit the blue-haired kid with a punch, his attack miserably failing as he was struck in the face, falling to the ground and writhing around in pain. "Aghhh! It's... hot! It feels... like my body is burning!"
But, despite two of them being already down, the rush of boys didn't stop there, and another one attacked the blue-haired kid, this time managing to hit him with a knee kick on his stomach and pushing him back a little bit before trying to attack him again with a punch.
The fist came closer and closer to the blue-haired kid's face, and just when it was about to hit him, a sword suddenly came flying from nowhere, stabbing the attacking boy's hand, its blood splatting everywhere. "Ahhhhhh! It hurts!!!!"
"Hey, Yang Kai! Sorry for the delay, but your order has come!" A voice from the direction the sword came from said that as it came closer and closer, its blonde, handsome owner eventually made his appearance between the forest's bushes afterwards.
"I could have beat him myself. Your help wasn't necessary, Mo Fan." The blue-haired kid exclaimed as he gripped the hilt of the sword and extracted its blade from the hand of the boy, letting him fall on the grass, whose color was tainted by his blood and continued to be. "But thanks for the sword; it's really, really sharp!"
"That's because I made it!" The golden-haired kid said as he proceeded towards Yang Kai. "Now could you care to explain to me what's happening?"
"Well, h-" but Yang Kai barely had the time to open his mouth that the black-haired guy with the ponytail had already interrupted him by shouting. "Another rat! I knew that Su Mu had a very large group, but I didn't think it was this big! Guys! Teach that golden rat a lesson he'll never forgive!"
"Yes!!!" And at his command, all of the guys rushed at the two youngsters.
"Guess that we'll have to fight together this time, Mo Fan." Yang Kai exclaimed as he quickly prepared for battle, the new sword he acquired already prepared to take lifes.
"Yeah..." the golden-haired kid responded as he took a combat stance as well. "Then why don't we see who between us kills the most of them?"
