Super Soldier in the City-Chapter 1216 - 1264 Still Not Working

Jiang Ningxiang’s expression stiffened for a moment, then she bit her lip hard and nodded forcefully, saying, "Okay!"

"Ningxiang!" Li Yifei immediately called out.

Jiang Ningxiang then displayed a sweet smile and said, "Brother Li, since I regard you as a father in my heart, disrobing in front of a father is not something to be ashamed of. Ningxiang possesses Innate Vital Energy which, if not utilized properly, would mean I can’t contribute to the Li family. It would be a waste being a member of the Li family, so please help me develop my Innate Vital Energy as soon as possible."

Xu Shanshan clapped her hands and said, "Well said, you truly are worthy of being my disciple."

Jiang Ningxiang smiled even more sweetly, saying, "Master, I definitely won’t let you down, and I won’t let the Li family down either."

With that, the young girl turned her back to Li Yifei and began to undress, her movements swift and without delay.

Li Yifei, embarrassed, turned his head towards Xu Shanshan and rolled his eyes at her.

Xu Shanshan revealed a smile, albeit a very odd one, making Li Yifei puzzled about what her smile meant.

Jiang Ningxiang quickly stripped down completely, not leaving a single piece of clothing, and then climbed onto the bed, lying down flat, and whispered, "Brother Li, Master, come on."

At this moment, if Li Yifei were to draw back, that would truly dishonor Jiang Ningxiang’s bravery, so he took a deep breath, turned around, but his heartbeat involuntarily quickened upon seeing Jiang Ningxiang’s body.

Xu Shanshan had already jumped onto the bed, saying, "Hurry up now."

Li Yifei had no choice but to gather his courage and join them on the bed, now having a clearer view, and his gaze uncontrollably wandered to Jiang Ningxiang’s sensitive areas.

Jiang Ningxiang then closed her eyes, her cheeks flushing red, not just her face but a blush spreading over her body.

For someone of Jiang Ningxiang’s age, her body is extremely delicate, and since she herself is an extremely beautiful girl, she possesses lethal allure to any man at this moment.

Xu Shanshan then said in a serious tone, "Relax your mind, clear all distracting thoughts, and focus on channeling your Innate Vital Energy."

These words seemed directed both at Jiang Ningxiang and Li Yifei, and they made Li Yifei feel quite ashamed. Jiang Ningxiang regarded him as a father figure, yet he was still attracted by her body, which is truly sinful.

Taking a deep breath, Li Yifei circulated his True Qi, finally calming his mind, and then nodded towards Xu Shanshan.

Xu Shanshan also nodded, and both reached out to grasp one of Jiang Ningxiang’s hands each, then closed their eyes, quickly forming a fist except for the index finger which they slowly slid up Jiang Ningxiang’s arm.

Li Yifei indeed had no distracting thoughts now. For him, controlling his emotion was possible, even in the presence of a completely naked beautiful woman, his mind was only focused on the flow of Jiang Ningxiang’s True Qi.

However, as their fingers moved up Jiang Ningxiang’s arm and reached her chest, her body shook, and the Innate Vital Energy inside her became chaotic.

Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan immediately opened their eyes and turned to look at Jiang Ningxiang.

Jiang Ningxiang, with a flushed and shy face, said, "I’m sorry, I got distracted."

Xu Shanshan nodded, not blaming Jiang Ningxiang, and said, "Try to relax, let’s try again."

"Yes!" Jiang Ningxiang nodded.

When they reached the chest area again, Jiang Ningxiang’s Vital Energy collapsed once more, and this time Xu Shanshan frowned, saying, "Aren’t you supposed to consider Brother Li as your father? Why are there still distracting thoughts?"

Jiang Ningxiang weakly said, "I don’t know why, it’s just... just... when Brother Li’s fingers touch my... chest, I can’t help but get my Vital Energy disturbed."

Xu Shanshan rolled her eyes and said, "Then your feelings towards your father Brother Li are not pure, are they?"

"No, not at all!" Jiang Ningxiang immediately became flustered and hastily said, "I really have no other thoughts, it’s just... if a real father touched me here, I would also... feel embarrassed."

Li Yifei, upon hearing Jiang Ningxiang say this, felt somewhat embarrassed too. Jiang Ningxiang was right; generally, when a daughter reaches puberty, her father should be more reserved about certain things, and like in the United States, the police would intervene if a father bathes his daughter after she starts school, let alone touching her like this.

"Master, Brother Li, I will control myself better this time and won’t get confused again," Jiang Ningxiang said as she bit her lip, making a promise.

Xu Shanshan nodded and said, "Good, this time you adjust yourself first, let your mind completely immerse in the operation of True Qi, and we will make a move later."

Jiang Ningxiang once again closed her eyes, then began to circulate True Qi. After a while, her breathing became completely calm and slow, and her skin color was also completely normal, indicating she was definitely in a very good state then.

Li Yifei and Xu Shanshan exchanged glances and made another attempt. After failing twice consecutively, this time they were both very careful, fearing causing Jiang Ningxiang any issues again.

But even with their utmost caution, and even though Jiang Ningxiang was well-prepared, when it came to reaching her chest again, Jiang Ningxiang’s True Qi collapsed once more.

Xu Shanshan said somewhat annoyed, "Forget it, let’s not try any more. It seems that this method doesn’t work. You girl are simply not focussed."

Jiang Ningxiang suddenly sat up, with tears in her eyes, and said, "It’s the disciple’s fault, the disciple has disappointed the master."

Li Yifei immediately comforted, "Shanshan, don’t be angry; Ningxiang, don’t feel wronged either. This kind of thing is indeed not that easy to control. After all, I am a man, and Ningxiang is just a young girl whose cultivation of Innate Vital Energy isn’t that high. It’s not so easy to control oneself. Let’s take it slowly. I believe it will eventually be successful."

"Master! Brother Li! I will work hard, really! Let’s do it again, I... I will definitely not be in disarray again." Although Jiang Ningxiang spoke urgently, it was clear she had little confidence, obviously feeling unsure.

Xu Shanshan shook her head and said, "Let’s forget it for today. I’m not in the mood anymore."

Li Yifei nodded and said, "Yeah, I think we should stop here for today. Ningxiang, you are still so young, we have plenty of time. Let’s take it slow; rushing might make things worse."

Jiang Ningxiang lowered her head and said softly, "Mmm, thank you, master, thank you, Brother Li."

Li Yifei jumped off the bed and said, "Then get dressed; it’s getting late. Let’s go have breakfast, you still need to go to school later."

"Alright, you guys go ahead. I need to think a bit more." Xu Shanshan didn’t come down, her brows furrowed as though she was pondering something.

Li Yifei and a dressed Jiang Ningxiang left Xu Shanshan’s villa. Jiang Ningxiang was looking quite dejected.

Li Yifei put his hand on Jiang Ningxiang’s shoulder and said, "Ningxiang, don’t feel burdened. Cultivating martial arts isn’t something that can be achieved overnight. Sometimes it really requires a lot of opportunity. Your opportunity hasn’t come yet, which is why your Innate Vital Energy hasn’t been effectively harnessed. When the opportunity comes, your Innate Vital Energy will integrate all at once, just like your master."

Jiang Ningxiang looked up at Li Yifei, her voice uncertain as she said, "Brother Li, is that really true? I really feel so useless."

Li Yifei gently said, "Silly girl, how could you be useless? You should know, among ten million people, there might not even be one who possesses Innate Vital Energy like you do. You are very fortunate indeed."

"But if I keep being unable to use it, isn’t it the same as not having it at all?" As she spoke, Jiang Ningxiang’s eyes reddened again.

"It’s absolutely not the same. If you hadn’t met me and your master, your Innate Vital Energy might have been buried forever. Although we haven’t found the right method yet, we’ll figure it out sooner or later. The most important thing is for you to maintain a good mindset. You mustn’t get hung up on this every day. Innate Vital Energy, as its name suggests, is naturally produced within the body and isn’t something that can be forced. I feel letting nature take its course, along with some proper guidance, is enough. If you try too hard, it might actually be counterproductive."

"So... shall I stop practicing?"

"That’s not what I meant. What your master taught you is a form of guidance; you still need to practice. Currently, your main issue is probably your mindset. The more anxious you are, the bigger the problem might be."

"Oh... perhaps that is true. I really am anxious; I always hope to succeed in practicing sooner."

"Exactly, that’s not right. You need to relax and not focus all your thoughts on this. There’s a lot to enjoy in school life and home life."

"Okay, I’ll listen to Brother Li; Brother Li is really good to me." A smile once again appeared on Jiang Ningxiang’s face.

Li Yifei also smiled contentedly and said, "That’s being good."

"Mmm, Brother Li..." Jiang Ningxiang suddenly appeared a bit guilty as she glanced at Li Yifei and sheepishly said, "About what I said before, will you... will you be mad at me?"

"Mad at you for what?"

Jiang Ningxiang stuttered, "That is... I don’t want to be... your woman, just... your daughter."

Li Yifei laughed heartily and said, "I’m very happy. Brother Li has many women, but I don’t have a goddaughter like you. So, I’m really happy about this."

Goddaughter... When Li Yifei said these three words out loud, why did it feel so wicked to him.
