The sunlight was already shining brightly, yet not enough to pierce through the dense foliage that covered the floor of the Ankra forest.. thick and wide leafy trees and vines seem to be a separate obstacle for sunlight to get to the forest floor.
"Give me your hand, young man..!! " said Maruka to Chen Khu but without waiting for approval from Chen Khu. Maruka's hand had already withdrawn Chen Khu's hand.
"hmm. not too bad at least.you are still better than when I was young.. " muttered Maruka while closing her eyes and examining Chen Khu's bones and joints while Chen Khu only scratched - scratching his head to see the behavior of Maruka who examined him like a healer.
"Energy in big.. Big chi
.just you haven't purified both of them yet. "muruka muttered then released her grip and looked at Chen Khu's face.
"I mean grandpa..?
"You know the basic use of the basic fangs of the sky dragon..? " asked Maruka and was answered with a nod by Chen Khu..
"But you know how to maximize the power of that sword..? " this time Chen Khu shook his head, although in his heart he did not expect that the sky dragon sword ability he was using at this time was not maximal.
"Qi... !! if you flow Qi into this sword, then you will feel the difference." Maruka continued.
"Qi..?? " Chen Khu asked while scratching his head.
"Yes.. Qi..!! you don't know what it is..?? maruka said while hitting her head.
"How could you carry out such a heavy task, while Qi alone you don't know..?! is it possible that the gods have chosen people wrongly..?! " muruka muttered in disbelief while shaking her head, whereas Chen Khu could only bow down in embarrassment with his wry smile.
"Follow me..!! " arriving - Maruka pulled Chen Khu's wrist and stood up.
"Wait for the cake. Where are we going..? I still have another goal...and very urgent..?! chen Khu said he tried to reject Maruka's invitation while trying to release his wrist, but Maruka's hand grip was too strong and Chen Khu was forced to follow her while continuing to ask where Maruka would take her.
"Why did you arrive - suddenly become chatty like this huh..?! come with your abilities now there are still many people who can kill you..!! " hardik Maruka then with a leg stomp. his body shot into the air at high speed even Chen Khu who was used to flying even to the shortness of breath made, he made, a thing he often does to people who are taken flying with him.
"Could this be karma...?? " chen Khu said inwardly with a smile.
Maruka's ability is indeed very far above Chen Khu. Even Maruka's speed is still above Chen Khu despite flying while carrying it as a load, and within minutes, even though he was still flying, they came to a fertile valley with a small flowing river and looked from a distance like a small hut.
The old hut and already seen the reot stood in the middle of a field. Maruka who lives alone in the former village of Sherpa tribe, must be farmed to meet the needs of his life.. Maruka also caught fish in a small river full of fish passing through the middle of his field as a side dish of tubers - tubers to eat.. around the field visible remnants - the rest of the building that has been almost completely covered by vines..from the former - the former building can be seen if the Sherpa tribe was a large tribe with a fairly advanced civilization.
Maruka swooped sharply with her head down towards her hut when their distance with the hut was near, Maruka stopped her pace and landed smoothly with both feet, making Chen Khu breathe a sigh of relief.
"you must stay here for a while, until you can turn the energy and and Chi in your body into Qi.. " said Maruka then walked into her cottage regardless of Chen Khu who looked confused by her attitude.
"But cake.there are important things that I must do at this time.and I must arrive at the Ming empire as soon as possible." Chen Khu pleaded.
" But cake....!! " chen Khu's words stopped because Maruka was in front of him.
"I will allow you, if you are able to survive to the count of ten.. !!" Maruka took one step back and immediately put up the horses and took out energy from her hands and formed a sword.
"How's..?!" said Maruka and prepared to attack.
"One..!! " without waiting for approval Chen Khu Maruka had advanced to attack and started counting.. Chen Khu who was surprised by the incoming attack suddenly tried to dodge while pulling his sword..
"Two.. !!" chen Khu's late move made Maruka's energy sword hilt successfully hit her wrist as a result of the sky dragon sword being thrown to the ground.
"Three..!! " Chen Khu who was still looking towards his sword that was thrown back had to feel a kick that hit his chest in a crushing manner, Chen Khu, who had been a swordsman, was completely rendered helpless by Maruka.
"Four..!! " Chen Khu who was still thrown in a hovering position due to being hit by a back kick must feel a punch of Maruka's left hand that made his body slammed into the ground, which was then hit, and then Maruka's energy sword had stuck to her neck..
Chen Khu coughed up blood as a result of the punches and kicks given by Maruka.His wrist was also still painful due to the blows of Maruka's sword hilt.
"Huh..you are not even able to survive until the count of five..!! with this kind of ability, you will only make the fangs of the sky dragon into useless scrap metal..!! " snaps Maruka then removes her energy sword.
Chen Khu tried to get up while wiping the fresh blood from his lips which had partially soaked his clothes.. Chen Khu confirmed Maruka's remark, although in his heart he still asked, why the strange old man forced himself to become a disciple.
"Murid please hint the cake..!! " chen Khu said steadily as he knelt.
"Good..!! because I also won't let you just leave..!! maruka replied then kicked the sky dragon sword with her heel towards Chen Khu.
Chen Khu who was still bowed was surprised by the sword that was rushing towards him, even though Maruka only used a little of her strength, but Chen Khu could only roll to the side to avoid his own sword which eventually stuck on the pole of his cottage.
Maruka looked back, laughing at Chen Khu's reaction, then with a few jumps..Maruka disappeared from Chen Khu's sight.
Chen Khu walked gontai towards his sword, then after sheathing his sword.. Chen Khu went up to the top of the hut to lay down his body.

Sorry if the update is late..
This chapter makes it a little difficult for me, to determine the storyline.A few times the paragraphs that I have written. must be removed again because the plot is not as I want.
Easy - hopefully, this chapter can be interesting to read.
