"Qingze, nothing is more important than your safety."
Chu Lingxiao held Qingze's hand even tighter.
"I know this is Qingyun Sect, and we have the powerful Sixth Elder here, but the Void Refinement Stage is still the Void Refinement Stage after all. Even if Senior Brother Lin Yu didn't intend to hurt you, if he didn't restrain his strength, and the Sixth Elder was a little slow to react and failed to protect you in time..."
Seeing that Gu Qingze was about to say something to comfort him, Chu Lingxiao covered his mouth with his other hand.
"I know you want to say how could such a coincidence happen in the world, but I'm just afraid that you'll leave me... I don't want you to take any risks even if there's a slight danger... After all, you're the only one I have."
Chu Lingxiao hesitated for a moment and whispered the last sentence.
His mother died when he could still remember. His father cared more about profit and family honor than himself. Since he lost his spiritual power for three years, all his former friends are gone. Although Zhou Yue and Su Ming were his friends, it was only because Gu Qingze acted as a bridge at the beginning. Lu Xingchen and He Lanzhi were more like brothers than friends... As for the old man in the sea of consciousness, he helped him out of revenge...
Gu Qingze rubbed his head and gently removed the hand that was covering his mouth.
"Ling Xiao, don't worry, I will never leave you..."
Seeing how extremely dependent he was on himself, Gu Qingze was not very happy, but sighed instead.
This won’t work. Humans are social creatures. If they don’t have their own social circle, it will be difficult to maintain mental health in the long run. So they still need to make more friends.
Gu Qingze analyzed from a psychological perspective.
If it wasn't because they were in public, he would have hugged him long ago.
Looking at Chu Lingxiao's inquiring eyes, Gu Qingze said helplessly.
"I'll listen to Ling Xiao and give up the duel with Senior Brother Lin Yu."
"That's more like it."
Chu Lingxiao nodded in satisfaction, then he thought of something and added.
"I hope you give up the duel, not just because of personal feelings, but also based on a concrete analysis of the facts. In a duel like this, unless you deliberately conceal your strength beforehand, you will definitely lose, and lose miserably. If I draw Senior Brother Lin Yu, I will also give up, so don't be so proud and try to be a hero later..."
Hearing Chu Lingxiao's instructions, Gu Qingze looked at him and promised seriously.
"Yes, I will ask the Sixth Elder to abandon the duel as soon as I get on stage."
Chu Lingxiao finally put his mind at ease and continued to watch the battle with Gu Qingze.
Because Chu Lingxiao drew the number "3", it was soon his turn to play.
"Come on! I'll pass all my good luck to you."
Gu Qingze smiled and patted his shoulder to encourage him.
Chu Lingxiao took a deep breath and calmly walked onto the stage. He stood opposite Li Han, a determined glint in his eyes.
The duel began, and Li Han took the lead, attacking Chu Lingxiao with all his might. Chu Lingxiao dodged the attack with ease.
Gu Qingze watched the competition nervously from the audience. He knew that Chu Lingxiao was very strong, but facing an opponent like Li Han, he couldn't help but worry.
Chu Lingxiao kept dodging Li Han's attacks, looking for opportunities to counterattack. Finally, he spotted a flaw in Li Han and launched an attack instantly.
