"Is that so... It seems that Master Li only considered the situation where you beat me. What if you lose?"

"You really want to fight me? Stop lying to yourself."

Li Qianshan's expression seemed to be full of disdain.

"Everything has a possibility, what if?"

"Haha, well, how about you promise me that I won't take her away? Don't say I didn't give you a chance."

"It's a deal."

"Hahahaha, then it's a deal. You may not be very capable, but you're quite arrogant... Come on then."

"Are you really going to fight? Oh my God, is Xu Qingyan going to die?"

The people around couldn't hold back any longer.

Not to mention Chen Jiurang in the crowd was laughing like crazy.

"Xu Qingyan has gone crazy! Hahahaha Xu Qingyan has gone crazy!!"

What else is there to say?

There is no doubt that this is the way to death, there is absolutely no doubt about it.

At this moment, in a courtyard not far away.

A masked woman who was carefully sewing the soles of shoes let out a pleasant laugh.

"Li Qianshan wants to spar with Xu Qingyan on the martial arts training ground. The stakes are whether or not he will take Bai Yingluo with him?"

The old voice that appeared out of nowhere, though there was no figure, answered.

"That's right, Miss, are you going to send someone to intervene?"

“Why interfere?”

The woman's movements in sewing the soles of the shoes were not slow at all, but still so delicate and steady.

"But...isn't this the young lady's arrangement? He did this..."

"Do you think Li Qianshan will lose?"

"That's not the case. It's just that you care about that...Xu Qingyan, don't you? If anything unexpected happens..."

"Hehe." The woman smiled, and finally stopped moving and looked up at the light shining in from outside.

"Don't worry, he will be fine. Li Qianshan is a fool, this is probably the best solution he can think of, he really lived up to my expectations of him."

The voice hesitated a little, "Miss, what you mean is..."

The masked woman shook her head.

"It doesn't matter. Let him be. It's fine this way. In this way, he will eventually come back to me. Hey, Granny Ma, what color clothes do you think I should wear when I meet him?"

She frowned and pinched the corner of her clothes.

"The color of this dress is nice, but it's a little too conservative. Would a skirt be better?"

"But will the skirt make him think I'm a frivolous woman? Um... sleeves? Oh... Granny Ma, I wish you could cast a spell."

"Poison?"

"Yes, it's the poison that Wuxia Gaxi Cape infects. Once you inflict it on someone, they will love you to death."

"Uh..."

"Hey, I was just joking."

"Yes, Miss, why would you treat this sect's disciples like that..."

"It's pointless to need such a thing. He will be obsessed with me!"

"..."

The woman put down her shoe sole and looked in one direction.

"coming."

The old voice stopped talking.

A hurried figure stumbled in from far away.

It was exactly Li Qianshan.

However, Li Qianshan was in a state of disgrace at this time, even with a bruised face and nose.

"My Lady Saint..."

The masked woman raised her head slightly and looked at the other person, completely retracting the smile that she had just had on her face like a young girl in love.

Seems indifferent or even apathetic.

"Where have you been? Why are you like this?"

"Alas!!" Li Qianshan sighed heavily, holding his waist, and said passionately, "I have brought shame to Jitian Palace! I... I am so disappointing!"

The woman narrowed her eyes.

"You are the leader of the younger generation of Jitian Palace and one of the top three in the Beixuanzhou rookie evaluation. How can you say this?"

Li Qianshan wiped the blood from his nose fiercely.

He even stamped his feet.

"That guy named Xu Qingyan... ran up to me and said that he wouldn't let us take his sister away, saying that we in Jitian Palace were bullying others by taking advantage of our power. I was so angry that I wanted to teach him a lesson, but I didn't expect him to take the opportunity to say that we could fight, but if I lost, this marriage would be over! I thought that this was arranged by you, the Saint Lady, how could I have the power to make the decision? Moreover, in front of so many people..."

The woman said expressionlessly, "But you are Li Qianshan from Jitian Palace, how could you lose to an insignificant inner disciple from the Eighteen Sword Sect?"

"Yes!" Li Qianshan nodded, "I thought so at the time! So in order not to appear cowardly and lose face for Jitian Palace, I readily agreed."

"What's the result?" The woman still seemed nonchalant.

Li Qianshan sighed deeply and said with a very annoyed look.

"But I didn't expect that there are always people better than you... He was really amazing, and I probably didn't take him seriously enough and underestimated him. I... I lost."

"If you lose, won't that mean you are going against my arrangement?"

"Yes! I wanted to regret it right away. After all, this was arranged by the Saint Lady. How could it be ruined just because of my carelessness? But there..."

"But there are so many people there, all watching you and hearing your bet. If you go back on your word, it will be said that our Ji Tian Palace is inferior in skills and that we go back on our word, which will ruin our reputation and the consequences will be even more serious. It's best to just let it go and forget about this marriage. That's what you think, right?"

The woman's words made Li Qianshan stunned.

Then he nodded.

"Yes, that's what I think. Saint Lady, do you think so too? Then we really think alike."

"boom!"

Li Qianshan was startled and almost fell to the ground.

Then I saw the masked woman in front of me suddenly stand up.

Looking at myself coldly.

"Li Qianshan, just be a fool yourself and don't treat others as fools. Who can you fool with this little trick of yours?"

"I..."

"You are really something. For your junior sister, you can even do such a shameful thing. Do you still have any shame?"

"I..." Li Qianshan knelt on the ground respectfully, trembling, but he couldn't help but look up and put on a flattering smile that was completely inconsistent with his usual cold and arrogant face, "But Saint Lady... Junior Sister is really good, I... I really can't let her down."

The woman sneered.

"Is it better than what I arranged for you?"

Li Qianshan lowered his head and tugged at his fingers.

"This thing... is not about talent or anything like that... fate, you know what fate is? Forget it, do you have someone you like..."

"Li Qianshan!"

"I was wrong, I was wrong..."

The woman looked coldly at Li Qianshan who didn't dare to raise his head.

Then she turned around and returned to her chair.

Then look at each other.

"What you did, you idiot, has nothing to do with my arrangement. Your shame does not mean the shame of Jitian Palace."

“But so many people saw it…”

Li Qianshan wanted to struggle a bit more.

The woman just said coldly.

"It doesn't matter. Call Xu Qingyan over and I'll talk to him."

"ah??"

"Don't act like that. I know what you're up to."

"...You can also transmit secret messages?"

"Only you and your Saint Lady can use it?"

"Hehehe...you said you knew my purpose. What is my purpose?"

"You don't want to achieve this so-called marriage, and you don't want to take Bai Yingluo away."

"..."

This was a secret conversation between Xu Qingyan and Li Qianshan on the martial arts training ground that was unknown to others.

The boy's many blinks and unusual movements were actually sending signals to the man.

What the two said had nothing to do with the content of the secret communication, and was even completely different.

But in the eyes of others, they were just having a standard dispute between two men who had different auras and happened to have a dispute over a woman.

But the conversation behind the scenes was...

"How do you know I don't want to take Bai Yingluo away?"

"It's very simple. If you really want to take Bai Yingluo away, you can just wait until that day comes and have someone from our sect hand her over to you directly, instead of making a big fuss here and putting yourself out in the open. The message you convey is to give me this opportunity and also give you a reason not to take her away."

"Any other reasons?"

"Yes. What you said just now: Some things cannot be hidden from others, such as a man's care for a woman. It was not said to me, but to yourself."

"hehe..."

So Li Qianshan laughed.

Others still heard his disdainful and slightly provocative words, but he had already sighed.

"This marriage doesn't make sense, and taking someone else's favorite is not something I should do..."

"Haha, I think you can't bear to leave your Saint Lady."

"What nonsense are you talking about? I have nothing to do with the Saint, I'm talking about my little apprentice sister!"

This is something Xu Qingyan was thinking a little bit wrongly.

He thought that the resistance shown by this man in many details was because he liked the masked woman.

After all, when they first met and talked about Bai Yingluo's marriage, his hesitation and strong sense of being forced made Xu Qingyan realize that there was something fishy going on.

I thought it would be like many of those bloody plots, he had a crush on the powerful Saint Lady, but the Saint Lady wanted him to marry another woman, so he tried every means to disobey...

Xu Qingyan couldn't help but want to ask.

"Since you already have someone you love, why would she arrange a marriage for you? Your status shouldn't be that low."

"What nonsense! How should I know? If I knew, would I resort to such a desperate measure? Stop talking nonsense! Beat me down quickly so I can go back and report."

The other party was concise and to the point, and the method and approach were very clear.

But Xu Qingyan used secret voice transmission to tell the other party.

"Think it over carefully. If you let me win, I will have no problem with that. But you have to think about it carefully. If you really lose, it will be a loss of face for your Jitian Palace. Your Saint Lady will be furious, and this matter will not end well."
