Volume 1: The Genius Doctor's Hidden Edge 012: A Good-for-Nothing Who Can't Cultivate?
Having seen her eccentric personality, it's hard to say whether she would really do that or not. Mu Chenfeng clenched his fist and took a deep breath to calm down the anger in his heart before following after her.
As she approached, Tang Zhengyu beckoned her over and smiled: "Xin'er, come here and meet Master Guo. Today, the master will personally help you test your martial arts skills. You should know that in our Dragon Ascending Continent, martial arts skills are the foundation of cultivation. If you have martial arts skills within you, I'll definitely find you the best master."
"Dad, what if I don't have martial arts skills?"
Upon hearing this, he patted her head and said, "Hehe, it's okay if you don't have one, you're still Daddy's good daughter."
Tang Zihao, who was eating the snacks on the table, raised his head and said with a smile: "Sister, if you can't cultivate, then let brother protect you. Mother said that I should cultivate well and become very powerful, so I can protect my sister from being bullied."
"Good." Táng Xīn smiled and nodded, walking to the front of that Guó Fū Zǐ, calling out cleverly: "Husband good."
"Hehe, little girl, come here." Guo Fuzi beckoned to her and motioned for her to come forward.
Tang Xin turned her head to glance at her parents, seeing that they both nodded, before walking forward and asking in a crisp tone: "Master, how do you test one's martial arts skills? Will it hurt?"
Di Shang's expectant gaze had always been on Tang Xin, last time when he met her and Mu Chenfeng on the street, he didn't see her use any martial energy, only knew she had a photographic memory, and was very interested in what kind of talent she would have in cultivation.
"It doesn't hurt to test Wu's strength, just close your eyes and relax."
Guo Fuzi stood up, and under the gaze of the crowd, he stretched out his hand and placed it on Tang Xin's head. As he mobilized the energy in his body to guide the energy hidden in Tang Xin's body, however, there was no movement for a long time, and the crowd who had been expecting something began to whisper and discuss in hushed tones.
"Why hasn't even a hint of Wu Zhi's aura appeared? Could it be that this child really doesn't have any innate talent for cultivation?"
"It shouldn't be! Testing for Wu's power, apart from using a testing device, guiding the potential energy with one's own aura has never gone wrong. Now there's no reaction at all, I reckon this kid doesn't have Wu's power in him."
"What a pity! Without martial arts skills, she can't cultivate. In the future, when she grows up, she can only marry an ordinary person."
The emperor gazed at Guo Fuzi's hand on Tang Xin's head with some disappointment, where there was no energy gathering, proving that she really couldn't cultivate. In the Dragon and Phoenix Continent, those who couldn't cultivate, even if they had a superior status, would be inferior to others...
Looking at her still closed eyes, with a smile on her face, she seemed to be unaware of the fact that today's test had confirmed that she was unable to cultivate. A powerful strongman from a prestigious family would never marry a woman who could not cultivate. This life of hers would be destined to be unknown and silent...
Mr. and Mrs. Tang looked at each other, their eyes filled with pity as they gazed at Tang Xin. Inwardly, they made a silent decision that even if she couldn't cultivate, they would still make sure that Zi Hao could protect her, so that in the future, she wouldn't be bullied or looked down upon by others.
Tang Zihao was also heartbroken when he saw that she didn't have the talent for cultivation, and for a time, even the delicious pastries had no appeal to him. But as soon as he thought of what his parents had said, a determined glint reignited in his eyes, and he picked up the pastry again and began eating it with big mouthfuls.
He wants to eat more, practice well, work hard to become stronger, and then he can protect his sister. His sister cannot practice, so in the future, it will all depend on him to protect her. At this moment, he feels very important because he has a distant goal, which is to become strong and then protect his sister!
Among the people present, only Mocheng Feng's expression was unclear, with a complex gaze falling on Tang Xin's body. No one knew better than him about Tang Xin's skills and strength. She could dodge his sword without using her martial arts skills and escape from his pursuit. Now she was just a five-year-old child, how could such skills be ordinary?
"What's wrong? Husband, do I have the power of Wu?" Seeing that there was no movement for a long time, she opened her eyes and looked up at him.
Looking into her clear and innocent eyes, Guo Fuzi was at a loss for words. In front of so many people, he couldn't detect even a hint of martial power in her. He feared that once they left the Tang Manor, the fact that Tang Xiang's daughter had no martial power and couldn't cultivate would spread throughout the imperial city. This outcome was truly something he hadn't anticipated...
"Zi Hao, take your sister to the garden to play!" Bai Yan beckoned, afraid that someone would show a disdainful look and make her feel uncomfortable.
"Good." Táng Zǐhào put down the pastry in his hand, wiped his mouth, and then walked over to hold her hand, smiling with narrowed eyes: "Little sister, let's go play in the garden!"
Seeing Guo Fuzi's guilty expression, Tang Xiang smiled warmly and said: "Fuzi needn't be so anxious, Heart is also our daughter after all. Come, everyone please sit down."
As the atmosphere livened up again, Emperor Xun retreated from the scene without a word and headed towards the garden. Mu Chenfeng saw him and glanced in the direction he left, slowly lowering his eyelids.
In the garden
"Sister, don't worry about it. If you can't cultivate, then so be it. It's not a big deal." Tang Zihao patted her head with his chubby hand to comfort her, making Tang Xin laugh and cry at the same time.
"Brother Bao, from now on I'll leave my safety in your hands, you must work hard to cultivate yourself!"
"Uh-huh! I will." He solemnly nodded his head, a rare serious expression appearing on his chubby face.
Looking at the blooming flowers in the garden, she picked one and handed it to him with a smile: "Brother Fatso, here, eat this."
"These are flowers, where can they be eaten?"
"The flower is delicious! Look." She sucked out the nectar from the flower, sweet and fragrant, with a great taste.
Seeing this, Tang Zihao also drew a gourd and tried it. His eyes lit up instantly, and he exclaimed in surprise: "Sister, it can actually be eaten!"
"Hehe, of course."
"Good heart." Emperor Tang walked over, his handsome face wearing a warm smile.
"Is it you? Anything wrong?"
"Here you are." He took out a small blue bottle from his bosom and handed it over to her.
She took a glance and asked: "What is this?"
"This is a skin cream that can remove scars. The wound on your face still has faint marks, but after applying this, it will recover as before."
Upon hearing this, she shook her head: "No need." This kind of thing, she could easily mix up herself, why take his.
"Sister, Snow Skin Cream is very precious and really effective in removing scars." Seeing that she didn't even want something that was delivered to her doorstep, Tang Zihao immediately accepted it on her behalf. It's a good thing that's hard to come by, worth a thousand pieces of gold.
