The young girl had just come out of the river, her clothes completely soaked and now clinging to her body. Her fair skin and alluring curves were faintly visible, and even the little dog pattern embroidered on her undergarments was fully taken in by Charles Griffin. The sight of her rather ample chest made Charles Griffin's throat go dry.

From Charles Griffin's gaze, the girl realized something was wrong and immediately cursed in exasperation, "Pervert!"

She erupted with true energy, a wave of heat forcing Charles Griffin back several steps. In an instant, her previously soaked clothes were dried by the heat. Only then did the girl glare fiercely at Charles Griffin, gritting her teeth as she said, "You... what did you just see?"

Charles Griffin hurriedly replied, "Nothing, miss, I didn't see anything..."

Seeing Charles Griffin's earnest expression, she finally forgave him. But recalling what had just happened, she said angrily, "You, Charles Bennett, I only wanted to scare you a little, and you actually pushed me into the river, you big jerk!"

Sister?

But Charles Griffin didn't recognize this girl, so he asked, "Who are you?"

When asked this, the girl looked indignant and scolded, "You brat, you don't even recognize your own sister? I'm Liam Bennett, the second daughter of your second uncle Ethan Bennett."

"Ah, so it's you..."

Suddenly, Charles Griffin remembered her. Come to think of it, they were quite fated, as they were born on the same year, month, and day. Charles Griffin was born at the hour of Chen, so he was named Chen.

Liam Bennett usually preferred to stay indoors, so Charles Griffin had only seen her a few times and had somewhat forgotten her. But recalling certain things, Charles Griffin grinned smugly and said, "Little girl, you want me to call you sister? Even though we were born on the same year, month, and day, I was born at the hour of Chen, and you at the hour of You. Strictly speaking, I'm your older brother..."

With that, he ignored Liam Bennett's furious expression and went to sit on a rock in the woods.

"You brat, stop right there!"

Liam Bennett walked up to Charles Griffin and said coldly, "Fine, let's not argue about who's the older sibling. Since we were born on the same day, let's just say we're the same age. I just passed by and saw you practicing Meteor Fist, and you were doing it quite well. What's going on?"

So she had seen it.

Charles Griffin thought for a moment and decided it didn't matter if she saw. This girl was a bit arrogant, but she had never bullied Charles Griffin, and there was none of the usual contempt in her eyes. Charles Griffin felt some goodwill toward her and was willing to talk.

He looked at her with a smile and said, "What? Is it not okay for me to practice Meteor Fist? Are you jealous? Too bad we're related by blood, or else if you were another girl, maybe I'd teach you."

Hearing this, Liam Bennett blushed furiously. She threw a punch at a nearby boulder, shattering it to pieces.

"See that? I can do Meteor Fist too, and I'm at the fifth level of the Dragon Vein Realm, way stronger than you!"

Charles Griffin was a bit taken aback. He hadn't expected that someone his age would have a higher cultivation than even her own brother Zachary Bennett.

Seeing her pretending to be fierce, Charles Griffin secretly laughed. He already knew her real intention. Since girls are shy, he didn't call her out and said, "Yes, you know Meteor Fist, but you haven't mastered it. You can't reach the state where your body is like the starry sky and your fist like a meteor. If I had your true energy, the power of my Meteor Fist would be twice yours. Well, I'm in a good mood today, so I'll be generous and explain it to you."

Liam Bennett was startled and thought to herself, "This guy is impressive. He could tell my Meteor Fist isn't well-practiced just from one punch."

"Fine, since you're so sincere, I'll reluctantly agree. But you volunteered to teach me, so don't ask for any reward. Let me say this first, I'm dirt poor..."

"Such a common woman! As your older brother, it's only right for me to teach you. Who wants your reward?"

"What?"

Liam Bennett was so angry her mouth twisted. This was the first time anyone had called her a common shrew.

"You're smug now, but once you teach me, I'll make sure you regret it!"

She forced herself to swallow her anger.

Of course, Charles Griffin couldn't hear her inner thoughts. He just found this girl pleasing to the eye. He didn't have many friends, and today, on a whim, and confident in his Meteor Fist, he patiently explained and demonstrated it to her.

"...The most important thing about Meteor Fist is momentum. Watch the meteors in the sky—they fall with unstoppable force, nothing can block their path..."

"When you throw a punch, you can't hesitate. You must put life and death aside, focus solely on defeating your enemy, and press forward relentlessly. Only then can you grasp the true intent of Meteor Fist..."

After explaining and demonstrating for a long time, he finally taught Liam Bennett. By then, Liam Bennett's attitude toward Charles Griffin had turned into admiration.

She couldn't imagine that someone at the second level of the Dragon Vein Realm could have such a deep understanding of martial arts.

As they parted, Liam Bennett said, "Hey, I still have to thank you today. Now that I've truly mastered Meteor Fist, I'll have a chance to face Sister Lingyue at the family gathering. Maybe I'll even get our family's supreme secret manual—""Dragon Seal""."
