Based on this sentence alone, Mu Qingren began to look at Jing Zhe with new respect.
However, I still sighed, feeling a little regretful.
“Young Master Jing, the fact that you can say these words to my face shows that you are sincere towards Yingqiu. That’s very good.”
Jing Zhe interrupted her directly, saying, "Alright, but everything before that was just nonsense. Just say 'but'."
"but…"
Mu Qingren glanced at him, somewhat surprised; it was exactly as he had said…
"But you're too weak!"
"How will you know if I'm weak or not if you don't try it yourself?"
These words had a double meaning, and coupled with Jing Zhe's somewhat roguish and cynical attitude, Mu Qingren's already stern face darkened completely.
"Men shouldn't talk too much."
"Women, it's not good to talk too much!"
"..."
If Mu Qingren had spoken politely from the beginning, Jing Zhe would have told her the truth: although he appeared to be a weakling on the surface, he was actually incredibly strong, and any woman would know this in the future.
But she chose to speak to him in an arrogant and condescending manner, and he wasn't one to back down, so how could he stand it?
Women, it's dangerous to talk to men like that!
So he chose to directly confront them.
"Do you think that just because Yingqiu likes you, I really won't kill you? That's why you're so reckless and boastful?"
Mu Qingren has gradually turned to the dark side. The hand that was holding the sword hilt no longer trembled slightly, but was unusually firm, as if it could be drawn to stab someone at any moment.
Jing Zhe remained unmoved. "So, Pavilion Master Mu can force us to separate just because I like the Garden Master? Dream on!"
You think I wouldn't dare kill you?
You think I wouldn't dare hit you?
"..."
Although humans are essentially parrots, I can repeat others, but if others repeat me, I probably won't be very happy.
Mu Qingren was in a similar state at this time.
"Are you looking for death?"
"Why don't you give it a try?"
Mu Qingren was unwilling to waste any more words—how could her precious disciple have fallen for such a talkative person?
With that thought in mind, she drew her sword and charged toward Jing Zhe!
Perhaps because he thought Jing Zhe was too weak, Mu Qingren was very slow and obviously underestimated his opponent. As he ran over, he was thinking about how to give him a quick death and stab him to death with one sword.
But thinking of his apprentice's temperament, he sighed inwardly, slowed down considerably, and said, "I'll ask you one last time, do you agree or not? If you don't agree, you won't have another chance to agree later!"
"Sect Master Mu," Jing Zhe squinted at her, "you talk too much nonsense!"
"..."
Mu Qingren was stunned for a moment, then ran off.
"court death!"
The next moment, the sword was in front of Jing Zhe.
Although Mu Qingren's martial arts level was so high that Jing Zhe couldn't see it, her lightness skill was only at the initial stage of the second level of "light as a swallow," so in Jing Zhe's eyes, it was really too slow.
He simply shifted his body slightly to the side and dodged it.
Missing her target, Mu Qingren stopped, staring at Jing Zhe in disbelief, and exclaimed in surprise, "You…"
"Sect Master Mu, if you can't even touch me with this level of skill, you might as well not go to the martial arts tournament at all, to save yourself the embarrassment!"
"..."
Mu Qingren's eyes instantly turned red after being provoked by him.
"court death!"
As he spoke, he unleashed his full power and attacked Jing Zhe once again. Unlike before, this attack was overwhelming, making it hard for Jing Zhe to breathe.
But Jing Zhe didn't frown in worry. Instead, he laughed loudly, secretly cheering in his heart. He drew the Moon Departure Sword that Qiu Qianqian had left for him and went to meet her!
In fact, Mu Qingren's idea was very simple: as long as Wang Yingqiu's future husband knew martial arts, preferably a lot, so that he could help Wang Yingqiu, that would be fine.
Therefore, Mu Qingren's surprise after Jing Zhe displayed his martial arts skills already showed her attitude. At this point, Jing Zhe could have taken a gentle approach and sat down with her for a proper chat.
But Jing Zhe chose another extreme method of provocation.
This is because he knows that although his cultivation level is improving rapidly, he has rarely experienced actual combat. If this continues, he will become more theoretical and theoretical, and even if his cultivation level is higher than others, he may not be able to win.
Now that there's a high-level free sparring partner on the other side, Jing Zhe naturally wants to give it a try!
Because it was a head-on confrontation, the lightness skill was not of much use, which suited Jing Zhe's wishes. What would be the point of thinking about running away at this point?
Thus, the two began to fight. Although Jing Zhe was able to barely block Mu Qingren's attacks, he was at a disadvantage in terms of the situation, and only he knew how difficult it was for him to resist.
A master is indeed a master!
After several fights, the two gradually separated.
At this moment, although he was not injured, Jing Zhe was already panting heavily, while Mu Qingren was in much better condition. After landing on the ground, her previous furious expression subsided and was replaced by appreciation.
"you're good!"
Jing Zhe, who was just described as too weak, now has a completely different image in Mu Qingren's mind.
"Hehe, I told you long ago, you'll only know how good I am after you try!"
"..."
Seeing Jing Zhe panting heavily, clearly in pain but still stubborn, Mu Qingren smiled helplessly.
That mouth smells awful!
"Why... can't I tell you know martial arts?"
This is what Mu Qingren is most curious about.
Although some masters can deliberately hide their level when facing someone whose level is much lower than their own, they can only hide it; they can't completely hide their martial arts skills!
Jing Zhe is quite amazing. On the surface, he looks like an ordinary person, but in reality, he has the strength of more than five levels!
That's your problem, it has nothing to do with me.
Jing Zhe shrugged and said arrogantly.
"Your cultivation level... seems to be at the peak of the early stage of the fifth level?"
When she last met Su Mochen, she said that she had just broken through to the fifth level. It seems that even with the help of a jujube pill and the dual cultivation with Wang Yingqiu along the way, he had not broken through to the first level.
I suddenly felt a little disappointed.
It seems Su Mochen was right; the further we go, the harder it gets.
Mu Qingren, however, did not feel uncomfortable at all. It's normal for experts to have eccentric personalities and talk a lot... It doesn't matter!
So she said, "Since you and Yingqiu are in love, I can agree to this marriage."
"..."
Jing Zhe squinted at her, not saying a word, but finding it amusing.
If she had said this when they first met, Jing Zhe would have been very happy, but now, dignity is earned through hard work and has nothing to do with others.
"I already told you, you can skip the preamble and just get to the point!"
Having been constantly challenged by Jing Zhe, Mu Qingren was no longer surprised and simply said, "However, you must become a disciple of my Wuxian Pavilion!"
"..."
