Doctor and His Glamorous Sister-in-Law-Chapter 646 - 649: This?

Oh well, so be it. Once a master, always a father. It's too late to change mentors now. I'll just have to pinch my nose and accept it.

The more Liu Ergou thought about it, the more irritated he became. Ning Hua, standing nearby, laughed gleefully at his crestfallen expression. After all, in the half-month she'd spent with Liu Ergou, she had always been the one getting frustrated. But today, she finally got to see him on the receiving end. This truly is a day worth celebrating.

However, if Liu Ergou had one skill, it was his ability to adjust his mindset quickly. In just a moment, he had composed himself. He immediately resumed his barrage of questions for Swallow Li.

"Master, what was all that about? I heard that guy call you the 'Fierce Swallow.' He also said you single-handedly routed the Ancient Martial Arts Association and that not even an Innate Grandmaster could do anything to you."

"What's the story there?" Liu Ergou asked.

Hearing the question, Swallow Li didn't answer him directly. He simply said, "You sure ask a lot of questions, kid!"

"All that stuff is ancient history. It doesn't matter whether you know about it or not."

With that, Swallow Li pointed to the door.

"Alright, it's getting late. Today's business is settled, so hurry back and get some rest." 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

"Go to sleep early. Tomorrow, I have to test the results of your training. Come on, off you go!"

As he spoke, Swallow Li pushed Liu Ergou off the bed.

How could Liu Ergou possibly leave? He hadn't gotten an answer to his question, and now he was being kicked out?

Just as Liu Ergou was about to insist, Swallow Li had already lain down, pulled the covers over his head, and started snoring in the blink of an eye.

Meanwhile, Ning Hua began dragging Liu Ergou out of the room.

Helpless, Liu Ergou could only let out a long sigh and leave.

Before long, he returned home.

「The next morning arrived in a flash.」

As usual, it was time for Liu Ergou's martial arts training. After finishing his practice, he was ready to head back for breakfast. But just as he turned, he saw Swallow Li walking toward him.

Before Liu Ergou could even greet him, Swallow Li sprinted forward, arriving right in front of him in an instant.

"Kid, do you remember what I said last night?" Swallow Li asked.

Liu Ergou quickly replied, "You said you wanted to test the progress I've made during my intensive training!"

Hearing this, Swallow Li nodded.

"Good that you remember. In that case, make your move. Remember to use your full strength! Don't you dare hold back!" he warned. "If you hold back, I'll break your bones. Try me if you don't believe it!"

At his words, Liu Ergou's expression became deadly serious.

Hold back? What a joke! How could I do something so stupid?

He knew that Swallow Li's nickname was 'Fierce Swallow,' a name that certainly didn't sound gentle. Based on that name alone, there was absolutely no way he would hold back.

With this in mind, Liu Ergou didn't hesitate. He immediately unleashed his Erlang Fist and attacked Swallow Li.

The punch was both fast and ruthless. As his fist cut through the air, it actually created a sonic boom. It was safe to say that Liu Ergou had surpassed himself with this punch.

However, just as Liu Ergou was certain the punch would land, Swallow Li's figure bizarrely vanished from before his eyes, causing his fist to hit nothing but air.

As Liu Ergou stood puzzled by Swallow Li's sudden disappearance, his master's voice came from directly above him.

"Tsk, not bad, not bad!"

"It looks like you've really worked hard these past two weeks!"

"This punch already has some substance to it. In the future, when you're traveling the martial world alone, you'll have the means to protect yourself against opponents of the Houtian Realm. Even if you can't beat them, you can at least escape."

Hearing Swallow Li's voice, Liu Ergou reflexively looked up. He saw Swallow Li standing on his outstretched arm, balanced delicately on the tip of one foot. And yet, Liu Ergou couldn't feel an ounce of weight.

Seeing this, Liu Ergou's face filled with astonishment.

Whoa, this move is something else.

"Master, I want to learn this! That move is so cool!" he said immediately.

Swallow Li heard this and nodded in agreement.

"You want to learn this technique, huh? Alright, no problem! You're my disciple, so it's only right that you learn it!"

With that, Swallow Li hopped off Liu Ergou's arm.

"Ergou, I'll be upfront with you, this technique of mine isn't easy to master," Swallow Li began. "First, you have to run circles around a large tree with a two-hundred-pound weight on your back. Keep running without stopping. When you start to feel like the tree is chasing you, that's when you can stop. Then, you..."

Swallow Li hadn't finished his sentence before Liu Ergou cut him off.

"Wait, wait, wait, Master! I don't understand what you're saying. What do you mean run around a tree and only stop when it feels like the tree is chasing me?"

Seeing Liu Ergou's confused expression, Swallow Li replied, "Well... I can't really explain it clearly. You'll just have to try it to understand. That's how I learned."

"Anyway, to master this technique, you have to be able to endure hardship. It took me ten years to finally learn it!"

Saying this, Swallow Li sized up Liu Ergou from head to toe.

"Hmm, your aptitude seems pretty good. You might be a little faster than me. Maybe it will only take you eight years!"

Hearing this, Liu Ergou decisively refused.

"Forget it. Eight years... how many eight-year periods does a person get in their life!"

"Besides, I have a mountain of enemies! If I spend eight years training, the weeds on my grave will be a yard high by the time I'm done!"

Liu Ergou's words made Swallow Li laugh.

"Hahaha, you sure do talk a lot of nonsense, kid!" Swallow Li said with a chuckle. "If you don't want to learn, then don't."

"I can't force you, can I? In any case, your Erlang Fist is shaping up nicely. Just keep practicing it like this."

"Go on, off you go!"

With that, Swallow Li patted Liu Ergou's shoulder and turned to leave.

After watching Swallow Li depart, Liu Ergou also headed down the mountain toward his home.

By the time he arrived, the table was already laden with a prepared breakfast. Seeing such a large spread, Liu Ergou's mouth began to water. But just as he was about to sit down and dig in, five women emerged from the adjoining room.

He took a closer look and saw Lu Shuangyue, Mi Xiaoying, Liu Yunxi, Xu Yulan, and He Mingxue.

When Liu Ergou saw the five of them, he was completely stunned.

When did they all get together? I had absolutely no idea!
