Chapter 78

The hardyhorse coach drove through the charming city streets. It was no less lively than Southary, but it was much more peaceful. All the residents led a happy life; contrary to Southary, they were more reserved. They kept their volume down even when chatting amongst friends and family. This was an eye-opener for Chui Yim.

The coach finally stopped at an inn. Bak Wun parked the coach while Chor Shing Chit helped Chui Yim into a room and laid him on the bed. Bak Wun then left to look for the medicinal ingredients that Chui Yim needed while Chor Shing Chit kept Chui Yim company.

Ah! When will I recover, Chui Yim muttered, annoyed. He was an active person who trained the past twelve years diligently, and it had now been a month since he was injured. It was no surprise that he was feeling upset. Chui Yim felt like he was disabled.

Chor Shing Chit remained silent as guilt overtook him.

Mr Chor. Suddenly, something came to Chui Yims mind.

Dont address me as Mr Chor. Chor Shing Chit cut him off. I know that I didnt actually teach you much these few years. You can call me big brother Chor, and we can call each other brothers if you dont mind. There was a gentle look in Chor Shing Chits eyes. It was rare to see such a look.

Youre already at an advantage to have me call you big brother. Chui Yim thought to himself. Having lived two lives, he was definitely older than Chor Shing Chit. Yet he said nothing and addressed Chor Shing Chit as his big brother. Big brother Chor, the fight between you and that old dog Chan Shue Gun was great. Im fascinated by your skill. Can you teach me after I recover?

Oh? A gliphist learning how to fight? Chor Shing Chit smiled thinly.

I heard from principal Bak Wun that you took Chan Shue Guns life with just one punch after entering the three-chambered state. A glipihist needs to know self-defence too.

Youre right. As a teacher, Chor Shing Chit got into character and started to teach Chui Yim slowly. A truly powerful gliphist doesnt need gliphers. He himself will have battle skills good enough to protect himself from gliphers. One good example will be the renowned skill, Steps Amongst Fog, of the famed Imperial Sunset Palace. Thats a skill set that even gliphists can pick up as it confuses the enemy with afterimages and illusions. It buys time for gliphists to create their gliphs. I might not know anything about skill sets of a gliphist, but I can teach you some basic fighting skills.

Chui Yim was elated to hear Chor Shing Chit. He had learnt a lot from Chui Tin on how to become a gliphist, but there was nothing about battle. Now that Chor Shing Chit was willing to teach him actual combat skills, he was over the moon.

Ill thank big brother in advance! Oh, and big brother Chor, how did the Fallen Stars Rod end up with you?



Thus he started nursing his own health by circulating the Nine Levels Of Heavens Flame, allowing Chui Yim to recover at a shocking speed. After seven days, Chui Yim could already move on his own. His speed of recovery struck Chor Shing Chit and Bak Wun dumb. They couldnt help but gasp in awe, calling him a monster who was an expert even in the field of medicine

Despite his fast recovery, it served as a warning for Chui Yim to never go over his limit again. It was only two minutes, yet he was disabled for a month. Luckily, he was familiar with medicine, or Chui Yim predicted that the symptoms might last almost three months.

If I was alone in the wild without Bak Wun and Chor Shing Chit

Id certainly die.



Wow! This feels great! Chui Yim called out happily. Chor Shing Chit and Bak Wun followed behind, exchanging a smile on seeing the little monster finally act like a kid.

Principal, is it okay for you to leave the school unattended? Chor Shing Chit asked.

It is attended. Bak Wun replied lazily. I made a trip back to the academy when you guys were resting back at the cave and passed down my instructions. The Chan Clan only hates Chui Yim, and with the Souths rules, they dare not do anything to my school.

Principal, it seems like you are a person with secrets, huh? Youre only in the one-chambered state, yet you were able to beat a two-chambered glipher up. Chor Shing Chit stared at Bak Wun with a meaningful look.

However, the aged Bak Wun only gave him a carefree smile. Who doesnt have any secrets? Like you, the disciple of the Chor Clan that was viewed most highly, somehow shows up here in Southary. But I knew everything since day one.

Then why did you still choose to take me in? Chor Shing Chit asked with a serious tone.

He knew who I was. And the Chor Clan is a powerful clan in the South. Chor Shing Chit knew well what it meant for Bak Wun to take him in despite knowing his identity.

Hehe. Bak Wun laughed and gave him a playful wink. Youll know someday.
