Chapter 1182: Returning to the Martial Arts School

After a dreamless night, Jian Ai slept from half-past eight in the evening to twenty minutes past four in the morning. She woke up naturally.

The abundant sleep instantly injected strength into Jian Ai’s tired body, making her feel full and light.

She got up and tidied her bed. After washing up, she carried her bag and went out with Si Yue.

One could imagine the morning temperature in Baiyun City. This morning, there was an icy wind. Jian Ai rarely felt cold after inheriting the mental cultivation techniques. However, when she went out today, she couldn’t help but shiver. “It’s so cold!”

Si Yue looked at her expressionlessly and said silently, “You haven’t exercised for too long. Senior Brothers don’t have mental cultivation techniques, but they don’t feel that the weather is cold!”

Jian Ai: !!!

Did Si Yue mock her just now? In short, she felt offended.

“How’s Master’s leg recovery?” Jian Ai asked.

When Si Yue heard this, he answered, “No one can tell that he had an injury in the past. Brother Xiao Zhen doesn’t come to visit anymore. However, if Master needs to treat his roots, he still needs to apply medicine for a while. Brother Xiao Zhen got someone to deliver the medicine to the martial arts school.”

Jian Ai nodded in understanding. It had been so long since she went to the martial arts school. To be honest, she missed everyone and the days when she practiced with everyone every day.

“Junior Sister!”

As soon as the two of them entered the martial arts school, Ning Zexuan caught them. He immediately rushed up. “Junior Sister! You’re finally back!”

“Senior Brother!” Jian Ai smiled in embarrassment and mumbled, “I’m done with my things. I can finally come back and practice with everyone!”

Not long after, Li Mobai, Qi Wei, and the rest ran out of the inner courtyard when they heard the voice. When they saw Jian Ai return, everyone surrounded her like a swarm of bees.

“Junior Sister, we missed you!”

“That’s right. Why didn’t you tell us when you applied for leave? You’ve been gone for so long!”

“We thought you weren’t coming!”

“I heard from Junior Brother Lin Yi and Junior Brother Gao Yang that you haven’t even been to school recently?”

Everyone asked countless questions. It was obvious that everyone missed her.

Everyone surrounded Jian Ai. Looking at everyone’s passionate smiles, her heart instantly warmed. Hearing this, she couldn’t help but answer, “I went abroad a while ago and only came back the day before yesterday. I’m done with my work. There shouldn’t be anything big next.”

“That’s great!” Qi Wei smiled and reached out to pull Jian Ai’s hand. “Master is inside. When he saw Si Yue coming over yesterday, he was still talking about you. Quickly go in!”

Jian Ai nodded and walked towards the inner courtyard, surrounded by everyone.

It had been a long time since she had come to the martial arts school. The flowers and plants in the flower bed had already withered. In the summer, when she came every day, she would see her master standing in the yard with a kettle to water the flowers. Now that the winter solstice had arrived, the martial arts school was less lively.

When Yang Jie heard the disciples’ commotion, he knew that Jian Ai was back. He was already standing outside the living room door, waiting. When he saw Jian Ai, a smile filled Yang Jie’s face as he hurried down the steps to welcome her.

Jian Ai saw her master walking quickly from afar and couldn’t help but feel delighted. “Master!”

“You’re back!” Yang Jie said and stood in front of Jian Ai. He sized Jian Ai up from top to bottom before nodding. “It’s good that you’re back. Senior Brothers and Senior Sister are looking forward to your return!”

Jian Ai looked at Yang Jie’s leg with a moved expression and said softly, “Master, I think your leg is almost recovered!”

At the mention of their master’s leg, the other senior brothers were also excited. Yu Yue couldn’t help but say, “That’s right. Now, it’s impossible to tell that he had injured his legs before. Even the owner of Zhenhua next door was shocked when he saw it. He thought Master had eaten an immortal pill!”

Li Mobai also said, “Doctor Xiao Zhen is amazing. He cured Master’s leg in such a short time!”

Yang Jie’s eyes flickered. He looked at Jian Ai and sighed. “In the end, I still have to thank you. Without you, I wouldn’t be where I am today!”

“Master, don’t say that!” Jian Ai quickly said, “Since you accepted me as your disciple, and I have a way to treat your leg, how can I sit idle?”

Yang Jie nodded gratefully. He knew he didn’t have to say anything. They both knew how grateful he was to Jian Ai.

“Alright, everyone, get ready. The morning exercise is happening soon. After today’s exercise, I have something to discuss with you!” Yang Jie restrained his emotions and said to everyone with a serious expression.

When everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but look at each other. Ning Zexuan was quick with his words and couldn’t help but ask, “Master, what’s the matter?”

“You’ll know in a while. Warm up first!” Yang Jie kept him in suspense and smiled mysteriously. He turned around and entered the house.

Seeing this, everyone couldn’t help but blink inexplicably!

At this moment, Lin Yi and Gao Yang arrived late!

“Jian Ai!”

When he saw Jian Ai return, Lin Yi’s eyes lit up. He quickly rushed up. “You… When did you come back?”

Jian Ai looked at Lin Yi’s agitated expression and smiled. “I came back the day before yesterday. I initially wanted to go to school yesterday, but the jet lag didn’t subside!”

Lin Yi’s eyes flickered as he nodded at Jian Ai. While Jian Ai was away, he missed her very much, especially after Qinghuan went to the production team. Lin Yi changed his seat to sit at the same table as Jian Ai.

These days, Lin Yi often looked at the empty seat beside him in a daze, wondering when Jian Ai would return. Although he would leave messages and chat occasionally, his mood for missing Jian Ai did not decrease.

The others looked at Jian Ai through Lin Yi’s eyes and seemed to have understood something. They had long felt that Junior Brother Lin Yi treated their junior sister differently. It seemed that there was a story.

However, there was no time to exchange pleasantries. It was time for their morning exercise. They quickly changed their clothes and prepared to start their morning exercise.

While Jian Ai was not around, Lin Yi and Gao Yang had never been absent. After these few months of chasing, their training intensity was completely on a par with the others.

Doing the horse stance and running and jumping with weights were fixed activities for morning exercises. In the winter, there was also a meditative breathing exercise. This was also the basic martial arts of traditional Chinese martial arts. It mainly focused on training one’s heart meridians and determination, as well as breathing when using martial arts. It looked simple, but it was an extremely profound and complicated training method.

The requirement was to feel the power of nature and the comfortable feeling the air brought to one’s limbs and bones!

This was the first time Jian Ai had come into contact with meditation and breathing exercises today, but she usually meditated in the morning. Therefore, even if it was her first time learning, she could quickly enter a calm state!
