Knock! Knock!!
"Grand elder! I have brought the foreigner with me!" Ling Po Jun exclaimed right in front of a door along with Hutton who is standing behind him.
"Come in" in the next moment, a deep voice sounded out of the room which made Ling Po Jun to open the door and walk in.
’Ok then, let’s see what he wants me for’ Hutton thought as he took in a deep breath before he followed Ling Po Jun and walked into the room.
When he walked into the room, he saw that this room is completely different to the room he is in. Upon entering the bedroom, you’re immediately enveloped in a sense of tranquility. The room is adorned with intricate wooden carvings and delicate silk tapestries depicting scenes from ancient Chinese legends and folklore.
The walls are painted in hues of crimson and gold, adding warmth and richness to the space.A large, ornate canopy bed commands the center of the room, its frame intricately carved with dragons and phoenixes, symbols of power and prosperity.
The bedding is made from the finest silk, embroidered with patterns of lotus flowers and peonies, symbolizing purity and prosperity.Flanking the bed are intricately carved wooden nightstands, each adorned with porcelain vases filled with fresh cherry blossoms, their delicate fragrance perfuming the air.
Soft, ambient lighting emanates from intricately designed lanterns hanging from the ceiling, casting a warm glow throughout the room.In one corner, a traditional tea ceremony set is arranged on a low wooden table, complete with delicate porcelain teacups and a selection of fragrant teas. Nearby, a meditation area is set up with plush cushions and a small altar adorned with burning incense and flickering candles.
The windows are draped with silk curtains, billowing gently in the sea breeze, offering panoramic views of the surrounding azure waters and distant islands. The sound of wind chimes tinkling softly in the breeze adds to the serene atmosphere, creating a haven of peace and tranquility amidst the vastness of the ocean.
Overall, this high-class medieval-styled Chinese bedroom combines luxurious comfort with timeless elegance, offering a sanctuary of relaxation and rejuvenation in the midst of the South China Sea.
’It seems like Emperor Chen really loves luxurious homes during his days on Earth’s Hutton thought with an impressed look on his face.
But he didn’t take long for him to leave the interior design of the room as his eyes landed on Ling Huang Chou who is seated at the tea section area along with Ling Jian who is standing right behind him.
"Good day to the Grand elder of the Ling family" Hutton said as he performed a slight nod. When Ling Jian saw this, he immediately frowned as a cold look appeared on his face.
But Ling Huang Chou expression didn’t change as he still kept that calm look on his face while he said.
"Take a seat"
Without wasting much time, Hutton calmly approached the chair that is facing Ling Huang Chou before he sat down. As soon as he sat down, he immediately put his gaze on Ling Huang Chou which surprisenly bring popped out a thought in his head.
’He is at the third phase of the Foundation establishment stage’ Hutton thought with a calm look on his face. But Ling Huang Chou didn’t know this as he suddenly asked.
"Do you know why I sent Po Jun to bring you here?"
"Is it about my fighting style?" Hutton asked back with a calm look on his face. Even if he knew that the Grand elder of the Ling family that is sitting right in front of him has a higher cultivation level, he surprisenly stills have that strange feeling of confidence in him when facing Ling Huang Chou.
When Ling Huang Chou heard him, he immediately became surprised along with Ling Jian and Ling Po Jun. But Ling Huang Chou expression quickly came back to an indifferent look as he said deeply.
"Yes. But how did you know that I called you here for that?"
"Isn’t it obvious, my fighting style is dominantly similar to your family’s fighting style. So of cause you will have suspicions about where I got my fighting style" Hutton said with a calm look on his face.

"So tell me, where did you get your fighting style from?" Ling Huang Chou asked with a cold look now on his face. But the response he got from Hutton is a shaking head while he answered.
"Am sorry honorable Grand elder but I can’t do that"
If the Grand elder of the Ling family finds out that someone in the family gave out one of their sacred fighting techniques to an outsider, that person will receive severe consequences.
And Hutton just can’t repay the kindness Bob gave him which was giving him the forbidden arts by reporting on him.
But Ling Huang Chou didn’t know all this as an oppressive and dominant aura erupted out of his body as soon as he heard what Hutton said. But Hutton was still seated staring right into the eyes of the Grand elder of the Ling family with a calm look on his face.
"Let me handle him Grand elder" but before Ling Huang Chou could speak, Ling Jian suddenly said as he stepped forward. When Ling Huang Chou saw this, he significantly calmed down as he said.
"Make it quick"
"Yes Grand elder" Ling Jian said with a respectful tone and look on his face before it suddenly changed into a cold look as his gaze landed back on Hutton.
"I will only count to three before you tell me how you got the fighting technique or else you will pay dearly".
"Oh really?" Hutton immediately asked back with a calm look on his face as he slowly stood up from the chair. As Hutton, the newly minted cultivator, stood up from his chair, a surge of energy coursed through him, propelling him across the room with unimaginable speed. In an instant, he vanished from sight, leaving behind nothing but a faint trail of residual energy.
Ling Jian, the young martial artist, barely had time to register what had happened before Hutton reappeared right in front of him. Before Ling Jian could react, Hutton’s fist connected with his chest with a powerful force, sending him flying backward across the room.
Gasping for breath, Ling Jian struggled to comprehend the sudden turn of events as Hutton stood before him, his expression a mix of surprise and confusion at his newfound abilities. The room fell silent, save for the echoing impact of the punch, as both young men and Ling Po Jun processed the extraordinary occurrence.
When Ling Huang Chou saw this, his expression quickly changed as he hurriedly stood up from his chair. And with a grim expression on his face, he asked.
"What stage of cultivation are you in?"
"You honestly expect me to tell you that?" Hutton asked back with a cold look on his face.
"Then I will just have to find out for myself" Ling Huang Chou answered with a determined look on his face as he slowly rolled up his sleeves of his robe.
In the dimly lit bedroom of the ancient pagoda, Ling Huang Chou, an aged master with decades of cultivation experience, faced off against the youthful Hutton, whose determination burned brightly in his eyes despite his lack of experience.
With a graceful yet powerful movement, Ling Huang Chou unleashed a flurry of strikes, his movements flowing like water as he demonstrated the mastery of his martial arts. Hutton, though less skilled, met each blow with unwavering resolve, his instincts guiding him as he dodged and countered with surprising agility.The clash of their energies reverberated through the room, shaking the very foundations of the pagoda as the battle raged on.
Despite Ling Huang Chou’s superior cultivation level, Hutton refused to yield, drawing upon every ounce of strength and determination within him to keep fighting.As the fight reached its climax, an unexpected stroke of luck turned the tide in Hutton’s favor. A loose floorboard beneath Ling Huang Chou’s feet gave way, causing him to stumble for a split second.
Seizing the opportunity, Hutton delivered a decisive blow, exploiting the opening to land a strike that sent Ling Huang Chou crashing to the ground.Breathless and battered, both combatants paused to catch their breath, the air thick with tension and disbelief.
"How is this possible!!?" Ling Jian exclaimed with a look of disbelief on his face. Even Ling Po Jun have a look of disbelief on his face as he took two steps back.
"Now do you want to know where I got my fighting technique from?" Hutton suddenly asked with a calm look on his face. When Ling Huang Chou heard him, he remained silent for a few minutes before he answered with a darkened look on his face.
"No"
"That’s what I thought" Hutton said with a calm look on his face as he slowly walked out of the room.
