"Okay, I promise."
Chu Lingxiao thought for a moment and nodded.
Gu Qingze was right. Ye Yun's cultivation should be at the Void Refinement Stage or even above. Moreover, there couldn't be another person in the world like Lin Yu who simply wanted to use swordsmanship to compare and thus suppress his own cultivation. So Ye Yun was most likely going to use his cultivation to directly crush him.
If you know you have no chance of winning, it's better to give up for your own safety. Only in a duel where both sides are evenly matched can you learn something. In a duel like this where you either crush the opponent or get crushed...
Gu Qingze was somewhat surprised. Although he always tried to distinguish Ling Xiao standing in front of him from the male protagonist in the original novel, he was still happy for Ling Xiao's decision.
Ling Xiao is indeed not the hero in the original novel. The hero in the original novel would just rush into battle no matter how difficult or hopeless the battle was, and would never consider the consequences.
"Then we'll just sit quietly in the stands and wait for your turn. Then ask the Sixth Elder for instructions directly."
Gu Qingze held Chu Lingxiao's hand and seemed to be in a good mood.
"Qingze, there are so many people here...it would be bad if others saw us."
Chu Lingxiao looked around and reminded quietly.
Sound can be silenced in advance with a soundproofing cover, but what about movements and behavior...
"knew."
Gu Qingze obediently let go of his hand. After a while, he moved closer to Chu Lingxiao and spoke in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
"Actually, friends or brothers can hold hands too."
Gu Qingze said seriously that when he was in college, there were two buddies in his dormitory who had a very good relationship. They would hug each other every day, and holding hands was a normal thing.
One time, he was on his way to the morning class and forgot to take his things. When he turned back and ran back to the dormitory, he saw the two of them...!
Could they be a couple? But when he asked them, they said that all good brothers were like this. At that time, they were working part-time jobs every day in their free time and didn't have any particularly good brothers, just ordinary friends, so he really thought that all good brothers were like this.
The most important thing is that those two guys didn't have girlfriends during their four years of college. Although I didn't have a girlfriend either, it was because of my part-time job and academic issues at that time. Those two guys were both second-generation rich...
Gu Qingze shook his head, shaking off all those messy thoughts.
So, from the moment he entered the book, he didn't treat Ling Xiao like a true brother, but rather...
"Good brothers don't hold hands. If Qingze holds hands with others, I will..."
Chu Lingxiao angrily corrected his misconception.
"But when Ling Xiao and I weren't together, you never refused every time we held hands..."
Seeing Chu Lingxiao turned around awkwardly as if his thoughts were being touched, Gu Qingze suddenly realized.
"So Ling Xiao liked me from the very beginning?! So I'm so charming?"
Hearing Gu Qingze's teasing, Chu Lingxiao felt even more embarrassed.
"Don't be so narcissistic... Actually, I didn't like you from the beginning... It was only later..."
Well, the more I think about it, the more I feel that I am really useless. I actually fell in love with Qingze in less than half a year.
Chu Lingxiao sighed. It didn’t matter if he was a failure. Qingze was his now anyway.
