Never seen a father put his own daughter through this / The power of the Rat King and The Emperor's "Heavenly Cripple and Earthly Defect" duo!

Seeing Chen Qi pouting to whistle, Nian almost immediately shouted something, and Xi understood perfectly, using two fingers of each hand as the mouth of a venomous snake, and suddenly pinched forward!

As for Chen Qi, the moment he whistled, two venomous snakes gave him a "snake kiss"—double the amount!

"Puhahahahahaha!!" XN

Chen Qi suffered a series of misfortunes in front of the camera, but this time he didn't receive the sympathy he had before. Instead, he received unrestrained laughter from the crew and everyone close to him.

Even Wei Yenwu, who was filming, couldn't help but show an extremely obvious smile when the camera wasn't on. This was obviously gloating, especially since everyone knew that Chen Qi wouldn't be in any danger after all this, but it was still amusing to see him suffer.

The only one not laughing in the entire room was Madam Wen Yue Madam Wen Yue. When she saw Chen Qi being bitten by a poisonous snake, even though she knew it was all fake, she still tensed up for a moment and immediately cried out:

You two bastards again!

Having said that, Madam Wen Yue immediately gave chase, but she did so not merely to act, but also to check on Chen Qi's condition.

In particular, after she discovered that the two snakes had bitten Chen Qi, and that black venomous blood was beginning to spread noticeably around Chen Qi's mouth, she began to doubt whether the snakes were real and immediately tried to stop Chen Qi.

The effect of this poisonous blood spreading was also due to Xi's handiwork; of course, it wasn't poison, just ink that resembled poison. But Madam Wen Yue didn't have time to ask so many questions at the moment; her first thought was to catch up with Chen Qi!

Therefore, Wenyue did not hesitate to use her lightness skill, which was exactly the same as in the script. Just as in his script, Chen Qi immediately used his lightness skill to get rid of Madam Wen Yue when she used it.

Little did he know that his actions had only increased Madam Wen Yue's anxiety. Chen Qi was even more unaware that his scripted escape would ignite a chase with Madam Wen Yue that would last for hours...

Chapter 216: I've never seen a father who puts his daughter on such high-intensity training.

"Ouch... ouch... my legs, they're so sore!"

"Madam Wen Yue, it's just filming, is it really necessary to be so relentless? While we need to shoot a lot of footage for editing, running around for two hours straight is just too much..."

The chase between Chen Qi Madam Wen Yue, a contest of light-footed skills, lasted for two hours. Finally, Chongyue noticed something was wrong and hurriedly caught up with the two. Chongyue then helped the limping Chen Qi Madam Wen Yue slowly walk back.

Although lightness skill doesn't consume much internal energy, Chen Qi Madam Wen Yue's chase made them run almost halfway Lungmen. In the end, if Chongyue hadn't caught up with them, no one knows when they would have stopped, especially since it was no longer a contest of lightness skill.

"When I passed by the Wei Residence, Madam Wen Yue had already brought out her motorcycle. I don't know how to ride one, and I didn't want to steal it, so I grabbed a shared bicycle and rode ahead, managing to keep Madam Wen Yue from catching up with me..."

Talulah: "Then why don't you keep going?"

"How could I stop? I thought Madam Wen Yue was adding some drama to her performance! I can't possibly spoil Madam Wen Yue's fun, can I?"

At this moment, Chen Qi Wenyue returned to the film set. Even with Chen Qi's current physical condition, after winning the race against Madam Wen Yue's motorcycle with a shared bicycle at the end, his legs were still incredibly sore. He could say he really pushed himself to the limit in the end.

The only consolation was that Chen Qi could lazily lie on the recliner and get a good rest, and he also had his thoughtful Sis Talulah massaging his legs. FrostNova was also by Chen Qi's side, using her Originium Arts to cool Chen Qi down.

"I bought you some muscle and tendon plaster; it should help after you apply it." At the same time, Chen Huijie and Lin Yuxia also bought some ointment for Chen Qi Wenyue to treat leg soreness. Talulah nodded and said...

"Thank you for your hard work. Huijie, give me the plaster, I'll put it on Chen Qi. You go and help apply the medicine to Madam Wen Yue."

"... All right."

Madam Wen Yue no less treatment than Chen Qi. She even used FrostNova's Originium Arts, but Wei Yenwu, who was massaging her legs, looked somewhat displeased, especially when he saw Talulah massaging Chen Qi.

Why is it that this kid, who just suffered a little, can now enjoy the full range of services from his two nieces and all the women in the Art Troupe?

You know, Wei Yenwu, the dignified ruler of Lungmen, only gets Wenyue to massage his back when it hurts badly. Chen Huijie, on the other hand, ignores him. You don't even need to try to know that it won't work.

Now that Chen Qi suffering such a small hardship, it's making his two nieces worry about everything. It would be a lie for Wei Yenwu to say he's not jealous.

But what makes Wei Yenwu even more uncomfortable now is that the sisters Chen Huijie and Talulah are taking extra care of Chen Qi, even seemingly ignoring him Wenyue for the time being... Talulah is understandable, after all, her relationship with Chen Qi is already like this, but what's wrong with Little Chen?

Wei Yenwu was somewhat worried, then a little annoyed, but before Wei Yenwu could explain things to Chen Qi, Wenyue's soft voice came:

"... You're pressing too hard."

"Uh, sorry, Wenyue, I used too much force, didn't I?"

Wenyue's words instantly calmed down Wei Yenwu's temper, which hadn't even had a chance to flare up yet, and he focused all his attention on massaging Wenyue.

"So, Little Qi, do we have to reshoot this chase scene?" Wenyue asked Chen Qi with some concern as she enjoyed Wei Yenwu's massage again and Chen Huijie applied the ointment to her. She seemed worried that her hasty "adding scenes" would force Chen Qi to reshoot.

"No need for that. They showed me the footage last year. When we were filming this chase scene, the filming crews of the Executioner and Mephisto were constantly shooting along the way. We really exhausted them this time, but there were definitely a lot of good shots."

"We can just edit it out later. By the way... I think the final motorcycle and shared bike chase between you and me, Auntie, is quite interesting. I feel like we could put it in our movie."

In the story, the protagonist, played by Chen Qi, is chased by the Landlady. He simply turns his head and glances at her, and he has mastered Landlady "lightness skill." Although the plot is comedic, it also proves the protagonist's extraordinary talent.

However, Chen Qi felt that the final scene, where the Landlady crashes into an advertising billboard and "explodes her equipment," could be changed to a final scene of him and Madam Wen Yue's bicycle versus motorcycle race, with Madam Wen Yue speeding and crashing into a telephone pole. The effect would be just as good.

After all, in the original script, the Landlady included some personal items and such... Chen Qi still had to consider Madam Wen Yue's feelings, so changing the comedic content was insignificant.

"Well, it's about time we started filming the second fight scene. I'd say it's the most exciting fight scene in our movie."

"Oh? Why do you say that?"

Upon hearing this, Wenyue and Wei Yenwu asked, explaining that their script was also incomplete, so they didn't know the next scene, which involved them taking action. Chen Qi then explained with a smile:

"Wei Yenwu, what do you think of Waai Fu, Tai He, Shang Zhong's strength? If they were to face a true master of internal energy, would they have a chance of winning?"

"That depends on their level." Faced with this rather technical question, Wei Yenwu continued his massage and explained, "If it were a master of Old Lin's level, Waai Fu probably wouldn't even know Old Lin had made a move before he died. That kid is still too young."

"Tai He might still be a match for him, but he's not considered a top expert within the Court of Judicial Review. Shang Zhong is a bit more troublesome with his weapon, but he's not significantly stronger."

"Indeed." Chongyue, who had brought Chen Qi Madam Wen Yue back, joined the conversation while sipping his tea, saying:

"Practicing martial Kung Fu Hustle is for training the body, but when it comes to internal strength, the difference between each level becomes quite significant. Generally speaking, if an internal strength master fights an external strength master, the martial artist who only practices physical techniques will be at a great disadvantage."

"There are not many martial artists who practice internal energy cultivation these days, mainly because most of the methods for cultivating internal energy have been lost or are recorded in the Great Yan Martial Arsenal... There are very few martial artists like this nowadays."

"That's the theme of our next fight scene." Chen Qi, seeing Chongyue join the conversation, also revealed the script, laughing, "A true master of internal strength versus three masters of external strength."

"If the previous fight scene was about the difference in fighting power between three masters and a villain who had no martial arts training, then this one is a demonstration that there is always someone stronger."

"Has it reached the internal strength stage? It seems Mr. Lin and the Emperor can prepare themselves."

Chongyue also strongly agreed with Chen Qi's method of improving the film's expressiveness step by step. He could now guess that the final showdown in the movie "Kung Fu Hustle" would be a contest between the two unparalleled masters, Chen Qi and Huai Tianpei.

Huai Tianpei's combat strength can definitely be called first-class in the Great Yan Dynasty. The reason he is not at his peak is because the peak generation basically does not rely solely on martial arts to win. However, it is still undeniable that if Huai Tianpei were to go all out, he would definitely be one of the top masters in the Great Yan Dynasty.

Chongyue is now certain that Chen Qi will use the "Buddha's Palm," a move Chongyue has never even heard of before, in the final battle. Chongyue also believes that this Buddha's Palm is Chen Qi's ultimate understanding of martial arts.

He also wanted to witness Chen Qi's unique move, and even... Chongyue held onto the hope that he, as the representative of the "pinnacle of Great Yan martial arts," could see an even higher level.

Huai Tianpei had been stuck at one realm for a long time, so he wanted to fight Chen Qi and Chongyue to reach a higher realm. And wasn't Chongyue the same? For this reason, Chongyue was unusually impatient and wanted to see the power of the Buddha's Palm.

"But... my second brother has been so quiet lately, without making a sound. I wonder what he's planning."

Chongyue is still worried that his younger brother will interfere. The reason he dares not act now is simply because there are too many experts in Lungmen, and he is not confident that he can possess Chen Qi's body.

But he didn't leave, which means he hasn't given up on his plan... Knowing his younger brother as Chongyue, he will definitely proceed slowly, starting with others and then gradually getting closer to Chen Qi.

"Right now, none of you have my younger brother's aura... I just wonder who he will choose."

As Chongyue's thoughts settled, the door to the lounge suddenly opened, and everyone quickly saw Huai Tianpei's exceptionally burly figure enter the room, immediately focusing their attention on Chen Qi.

"Director Chen Qi," Huai Tianpei bowed respectfully and immediately explained his purpose, saying, "I've noticed that the Rat King and the Emperor have both made moves. Is the next fight scene about to begin?"

"And if I'm not mistaken, it's a duel between Waai Fu and his group and these two actors playing the roles of internal energy masters?"

"Master Huai's guess was spot on." Chen Qi nodded when he saw that Huai Tianpei had also guessed the subsequent plot. Huai Tianpei, however, maintained his clasped hands posture and bowed slightly to Chen Qi, saying:

"Director Chen Qi, I have a favor to ask—it concerns my daughter."

"I watched Waai Fu's action scenes before. Although her legwork is good, her internal Kung Fu Hustle is really lacking. I plan to teach her an internal skill before my next long journey so that her martial arts can reach a higher level."

"That's a good thing." Chen Qi raised an eyebrow and replied, while Wei Yenwu Wenyue, who were standing to the side, were both surprised and gratified—this Huai the Martial Arts Fanatic hadn't really lost his mind from practicing martial arts; he still cared about his daughter after all.

Unfortunately, Lee and the others are no longer here, so Huai Tianpei's words won't reach Waai Fu's ears, and the timing is really not good.

"The problem is, my daughter probably doesn't want to practice martial arts with me."

Huai Tianpei also expressed his inner troubles. He wanted to teach his daughter, but he knew that Waai Fu was definitely blaming him as her father and would not cooperate with him.

However, Huai Tianpei was determined to teach his daughter internal martial arts, and he could not ask Lee to do it. Although Lee was also quite Kung Fu Hustle, he was not good enough in Huai Tianpei's eyes. Lee was good at everything, but fighting was his weakness.

Moreover, internal energy cultivation is something that, if no one supervises or teaches you how to practice, you might misunderstand it and practice it incorrectly. Over time, it's not just a minor issue that your martial arts will be completely ruined; the real danger is that you might develop a qi deviation. Huai Tianpei absolutely cannot allow unprofessional people to teach his daughter; he must teach her personally.

"So I think I need to make her feel a sense of crisis. When she realizes that her own physical Kung Fu Hustle are simply not enough against real masters, she'll probably cooperate with me in practicing martial arts."

"Honestly, if you're going to put this into practice, you'd be better off spending more time with your daughter. That way, she'll eventually listen to you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Qi couldn't help but speak up as well, but he also understood what Huai Tianpei meant—a father's love is always silent, and there are some things he can't say in front of his daughter. He could understand that, and this was one of the rare acts of kindness Huai Tianpei showed towards his daughter.

"So, Master Huai, what are your plans?"

"I intend to borrow Director Chen Qi's film for a while." Huai Tianpei immediately explained his purpose, saying, "Waai Fu is the weakest of the three. I want her to spar with masters like the Rat King and the Emperor, so that they can use their true Kung Fu Hustle and leave Waai Fu with no chance to fight back."

"As for how to design it, I don't know, but Director Chen Qi will surely have a way. As long as Waai Fu feels the difference, that's fine. After it's done, Huai Tianpei will definitely reward you handsomely."

Chen Qi: "..."

Goodness, what a loving father and filial daughter! It's no wonder Waai Fu wants to kick your chin off; other people can't wait for their daughters to be on screen longer, but you're planning to make sure your daughter goes offline as soon as possible.

Chen Qi was at a loss for words. He could only say it was a good thing Waai Fu wasn't there, otherwise Chen Qi feared she might end up playing a character beating up her father in a movie...

Chapter 217: The Power of the "Heavenly Cripple and Earthly Defect" Combination of the Rat King and the Emperor!

Chen Qi didn't tell Waai Fu about Huai Tianpei's plan. After all, it was a father who wanted his daughter to be better, but didn't know how to get along with her, so he resorted to this method to warn her.

Chen Qi's script didn't need any changes, as it was designed that way from the beginning. However, Huai Tianpei's words made Chen Qi decide not to give the complete script to Waai Fu, but to let Waai Fu experience for himself the gap between himself and a true master of internal energy.

As for whether Waai Fu will eventually learn internal martial arts from his father... Chen Qi doesn't know. He can only hope that Huai Tianpei can seize this opportunity.

The second day of filming officially began. Chen Qi, who played the protagonist, was poisoned by snake venom. He performed a complete set of Buddha's Palm inside the old-fashioned signal light tubes of Lungmen to force the snake venom out of his body, and then reunited with Hum.

The Landlady, played by Madam Wen Yue, ultimately decided to let fate decide by drawing lots: a good lot would keep her, and a bad lot would send her away. In the end, Madam Wen Yue received the worst possible lot.

A terrible fate—they can't leave even if they want to. Unbeknownst to them, the fates of Waai Fu and his two companions in the film are sealed. Meanwhile, Lee, playing the leader of the Axe Gang, finally meets the two assassins they specifically hired to deal with the three: the Rat King and the Emperor, played by "Heavenly Cripple and Earthly Defect."

The Heavenly Cripple and Earthly Defect, one is blind, the other is deaf. The blind man uses his hearing to identify enemies, and the deaf man uses lip movements to understand words. This combination is a perfect complement. The Rat King plays the deaf man, and the Emperor plays the blind man—a role that greatly displeased the Emperor, who even rapped at Chen Qi all night.

Ultimately, however, the two still managed to capture the essence of the characters perfectly during their performance. The Emperor didn't wear his usual hip-hop outfit, and the Rat King unusually took off the coat his daughter had given him. Both were dressed in the most ordinary coarse cloth clothes. The Rat King carried the Emperor and Zheng on his back, looking like the most ordinary street performers, yet exuding a chilling danger.

"It's kind of you two professionals to come here today..."

"--We understand that." The Rat King interrupted Lee, saying calmly, "The Hung Gar Iron Wire Fist, the Fifth Brother's Eight Trigram Staff, and the Twelve-Routine Tan Kicks are all here; it's quite troublesome."

"Previously, they were all top-notch masters. They only withdrew from the martial arts world because they were tired of the fighting in the martial arts world." The Emperor also changed his usual unserious style. He played a martial arts master, and his physique did not affect him in the slightest. Just sitting there, he made people feel his strong confidence.

"This job is very challenging for us."

"--See, that's what you call professional!"

Lee, barely suppressing a laugh, spoke to Ah Rushi, who played the secretary of the Axe Gang, beside him. He had to admit, seeing his old buddies suddenly become serious in front of him was a bit unsettling for Lee —even though, strictly speaking, he was younger than them.

Ah, on the other hand, was even more unrestrained. He had absolutely no concept of seniority or hierarchy and immediately read from the script:

"Of course! The number one assassin on the leaderboard is excellent value for money; it's worth the price!"

"Wrong. The first one is the ultimate killer king— Fire Cloud Evil God!" At this moment, the Rat King also solemnly recited this rather shameful nickname, which is the character played by Huai Tianpei, making his first appearance in the background.

"He was so obsessed with martial arts that he went mad from practicing it."

"I heard he's been admitted to a mental hospital now."

The answers from the Rat King and the Emperor quickly summarized the characteristics of the character "Fire Cloud Evil God." Huai Tianpei, who hadn't even looked at the script and was only thinking about fighting Chen Qi as soon as possible, was also hearing for the first time what kind of person the character he was playing actually was.

"Going astray in cultivation... Is this an irony directed at me?"

"Brother Huai, there's no need to worry. In the movie, the Fire Cloud Evil God clearly went astray on his martial arts path, which is why he suffered a qi deviation." Seeing Chongyue Huai Tianpei seemed to think Chen Qi was using this character to satirize him, Chong Yue explained with a smile:

"Brother Huai, although you are also passionate about martial arts, you walk the righteous path. Your martial arts have never been used for unjust purposes. You are the purest martial arts practitioner I have ever met."

Chongyue didn't want this small sarcastic remark to create a rift in Huai Tianpei's heart, especially now that his younger brother's whereabouts were unknown...

Chongyue only knew that his younger brother was still in Lungmen, but if he possessed someone, he wouldn't be able to detect it unless Chongyue actively showed it. It wasn't that his younger brother's abilities were really that strong, but mainly because after he split himself into 181 parts, the aura of possession was so weak that it was impossible to sense it... unless he actively showed it himself.

Chongyue was very worried that his younger brother would seek out Huai Tianpei. After all, Huai Tianpei was one of the few people who could have contact with Chen Qi, and he was powerful, but there was no way to resist his possession.

Chongyue didn't believe his second brother would let this opportunity slip by. With that in mind, Chongyue turned his attention back to the current filming. The two masters, the Rat King and the Emperor, would be using their "real Kung Fu Hustle" to fight against Waai Fu and the other two.

"A song that breaks my heart, where in this world can I find a kindred spirit?"

The Emperor's short stature did not diminish his imposing presence in the slightest. With a single line of poetry, he projected an air of mastery that belied his stature, clearly ready to demonstrate his true Kung Fu Hustle to everyone.

"Cut! That's a wrap! Everyone get ready to head back to the Rat Stronghold. Let's take advantage of the good night and finish filming this fight scene quickly!"

Chen Qi promptly called out, and everyone immediately snapped out of their acting mode. Only the Emperor, clearly displeased, removed the blind man's glasses and shouted at Chen Qi:

"Hey kid! What's wrong with you? I finally get to play a martial arts master, can't you let me do it a little longer?!"

"Alright, now it's your turn to show off your skills. Let's get going." The Rat King promptly picked up the Rat King beside him. He was quite enthusiastic about this performance. It was a rare opportunity to spar with the young people, so he decided to show off a bit of his abilities... especially since Lin Yuxia would be watching.

At this moment, the Emperor had the same thought. The girls at Penguin Logistics always talked about how he, the boss, was useless. Today, he had to show them what he was capable of, and let them see that he was more than just rap and DJ.

Before doing these things, he had already thoroughly mastered the "refined" music genre before venturing into something new. Today, he was going to show these girls what it meant to "kill without leaving a trace"!
