Chapter 125 Another Spiritual Vein Destroyed
Feng Qinghe shook his head.
"Maybe you want to cooperate with the third brother?"
“Want to cooperate with me? Hahahahaha…” For some reason, this sentence hit Feng Qingyan's funny bone, and he couldn't stop laughing.
Feng Qinghe seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing and remained silent.
Finally, Feng Qingyan laughed enough and raised his hand to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
"Qinghe, don't tell this kind of joke to tease your third brother in the future. Your third brother's spiritual vein is damaged and he is already a useless person. How can he be worthy of being personally asked by Manager Xu, who is being courted by several major families?"
As for cooperation, it is nonsense.
Feng Qinghe couldn't bear it: "Third brother, why do you belittle yourself? Before your spiritual vein was damaged, you were also a disciple trained by the Feng family. You were the goal that all the disciples of the Feng family aspired to..."
"You also said it was before the spiritual vein was damaged." As he spoke, the smile on Feng Qingyan's face faded.
The window lattice blocked the sunlight, making his eyes seem to be covered with a layer of shadow.
"Third brother, Manager Xu's spiritual vein was also damaged before, but she repaired it. Maybe she has a way? Third brother, didn't you come with me today because you heard that Manager Xu's spiritual vein was damaged and then repaired, so you came here?"
Hearing this, Feng Qingyan was stunned.
“But my spiritual veins are not just damaged…” His voice was so low that it would be blown away by the wind. Then he shook his head and laughed, “Forget it, let’s watch her competition in the ring first.”
On the ring, Xu Qiuqian and Feng Yichen were competing.
At the beginning, neither of them took out their round shields, and their strength was equal when they fought.
But gradually, Xu Qiuqian seemed to be unable to cope with the situation.
Everyone was surprised to see this.
"She's not really going to use the same method she used in the last fight, is she?"
"It feels a bit like that, but Feng Yichen knows how she won the last game, so he will definitely be on guard and there's no way he'll be fooled!"
Someone shook his head.
"You actually want to be the master of all trades with one trick. Fellow Daoist Xu, don't you have any other good ideas?"
Feng Yichen had the same idea.
Therefore, when Xu Qiuqian showed signs of fatigue, Feng Yichen not only did not press on to pursue him, but became even more vigilant.
Pay close attention to Xu Qiuqian's every move.
Want to use the same method you used against Xu Fan in the last battle to deal with him?
Impossible! He's not stupid!
Not only was he not stupid, he also took a step back before Xu Qiuqian when Xu Qiuqian intended to step back.
He was the one who retreated. He wanted to see how Xu Qiuqian would carry out his previous plan! He clearly saw the surprised expression on Xu Qiuqian's face, and then a trace of helplessness flashed across his eyes. He had to follow his retreating steps and take another step forward.
Feng Yichen immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
But Xu Qiuqian was still determined to do it, and after a few moves he started to retreat again.
How is this possible!
He was afraid of repeating Xu Fan's mistake, so when he saw Xu Qiuqian stepping back, he quickly took a big step back.
Xu Qiuqian showed an expression of surprise on her face again, and helplessness flashed across her eyes.
Feng Yichen sneered in his heart. Everyone knew her intention, so why should she pretend? In this way, every time Xu Qiuqian tried to retreat, Feng Yichen would take a step back, forcing Xu Qiuqian to move forward.
But for some reason, Xu Qiuqian always looked like she wanted to say something but hesitated.
Half a quarter of an hour later.
Xu Qiuqian finally couldn't help but speak.
"Don't back off any further."
Feng Yichen's heart suddenly trembled. Hearing this, not only did he not listen to Xu Qiuqian's words, but he took another big step back.
Then, he heard Xu Qiuqian say "be careful" and even reached out to him.
What are you careful about? The next moment, he stepped on empty air, and he suddenly realized that he had put all his attention on Xu Qiuqian, causing him to not know when he had retreated to the edge of the ring! He finally understood what Xu Qiuqian meant by "be careful".
And the hand Xu Qiuqian stretched out was clearly intended to hold him.
Unexpectedly, he was the one who judged others by his own mean character. Feng Yichen felt extremely ashamed.
Recalling the surprise and helplessness on Xu Qiuqian's face every time he took a step back, he probably was afraid that he would retreat to the edge of the ring, but had to compete with him.
He originally wanted to steady himself and return to the ring, but when he saw Xu Qiuqian's outstretched hand, and felt ashamed for his misunderstanding of Xu Qiuqian, he reached out to Xu Qiuqian's outstretched hand.
The moment he touched Xu Qiuqian's hand, he found that Xu Qiuqian was holding a round shield in his hand.
Feng Yichen's pupils shrank and he wanted to retract his hand.
But it was too late.
As spiritual power was input, the round shield grew larger and stuck on the edge of the arena.
"With a thud.
He fell off the ring on his back, still a little dazed.
At this time, he saw Xu Qiuqian walking out from the side of the round shield, shaking his head and sighing.
"I told you to be careful, why are you so careless?"
"..." Feng Yichen's face turned red with anger, "You..."
"Me what?"
He wanted to say that Xu Qiuqian actually took advantage of him.
He could have kept his balance!
But at that time, he felt guilty about his previous misunderstanding of Xu Qiuqian, so he reached out to Xu Qiuqian, which caused him to lose his only chance.
He actually fell into Xu Qiuqian's trap!
Feng Yichen regretted it deeply.
How could he believe that everything Xu Qiuqian did was well-intentioned?
This is a ring match! "Did you plan this from the beginning?"
"Yes." Xu Qiuqian admitted readily.
"Then your subsequent surprise and helplessness were also deliberately created by you?"
"Not the first time."
Feng Yichen was stunned when he heard this. Could it be that he really wanted to remind him for the first time...
"The first time was because you cooperated with my plan so well. I couldn't believe that there was someone as naive and stupid as you who actually took the initiative to follow my plan without any hesitation."
“…”
Feng Yichen reached out and covered his face with the back of his hand, his blush spreading to his ears.
He, he is too ashamed to face anyone! At this time, the elders of the Xiao family also announced that Xu Qiuqian had successfully defended the ring for the second time.
There was cheering from the audience.
Really, at that time everyone thought Xu Qiuqian was going to use the same old trick, but she actually did the opposite, taking advantage of Feng Yichen's vigilance and letting Feng Yichen step into the trap she had woven long ago! "Yichen deserved to lose." Feng Qingyan's face was full of admiration for Xu Qiuqian.
"Not only that, her control over people's hearts is no less than Xiao Pingyue's."
Feng Qinghe nodded.
She really refreshed their cognition time and time again.
Every time when they thought she was like that, she would always prove with her actions that they still underestimated her.
“No wonder the forces behind her chose to let her open a store in Youling City alone, and they didn’t even care about the location of the store.”
"If Third Brother's spiritual veins were not damaged, a competition with her would surely be a great success!"
Feng Qingyan agreed.
Then he added: "It's just that she doesn't use the round shield very well."
Although compared with other monks, her use of the round shield is already quite good, but this does not arouse the desire of other monks to buy round shields.
Because in these two matches, Xu Qiuqian relied more on strategies, and the round shield in the competition, to put it bluntly, can be replaced by any magical weapon.
Not irreplaceable.
Did Xu Qiuqian really have no other options? Soon, the third round began.
