Before Jing Zhe could even place his hand on it, Qing Qiu slapped it away.
Jing Zhe wasn't disappointed. He would have been surprised if Qing Qiu hadn't hit him!
A fairy maiden, after all, must have some fairy-like demeanor!
"Third Sister, actually I came here to talk to you about something important!"
Upon hearing that it was a serious matter, Qingqiu wanted to become serious, but because she was afraid that the people behind her would overhear her, Jing Zhe stood very close to her, his mouth almost touching her ear.
At first, she didn't notice, but as time went on, whenever he spoke, his warm, moist breath would brush against her ear, making her ear itch and her heart itch too…
She felt she should push him away, or at least keep her distance.
But for some reason, I couldn't bear to push it away...
If we push it away, wouldn't other people hear us?
Qingqiu reassured herself, then asked, "What important matter do you want to discuss?"
"Third sister, I want to participate in the martial arts tournament!"
"..."
Qingqiu paused for a moment, looked up at Jing Zhe, and saw that his expression was not joking, so she asked in a low voice, "Why do you suddenly want to participate in the martial arts tournament? Also, the martial arts tournament does not allow government officials to participate, and even if it did, the registration period has already passed!"
Jing Zhe smiled and said, "Third Sister, didn't I tell you before about the peculiar cultivation technique I obtained? Actually, our lineage is called the Heaven and Earth Sect, and I can participate as the Right Protector of the Heaven and Earth Sect!"
Qingqiu had never heard of the Heaven and Earth Sect, but she vaguely felt that the name seemed more grand than her Qingyun Sect or Kunlun Mirror!
He then said, "Even if it were possible, what about the registration period?"
Jing Zhe chuckled: "That's why I came to find Third Sister! I heard that as long as you get the approval of three martial artists from the four major sects, you can directly enter the competition list!"
Qingqiu looked him up and down and asked, "I only knew you knew martial arts the day before yesterday, and it seems your lightness skill is quite good. You haven't said what level you are yet. Are you so confident that you can take down the leader of the martial arts alliance?"
Jing Zhe smiled and said, "Third Sister, if I said I'm at the sixth level of the cultivation realm, do you think I could take it?"
"..."
Upon hearing about the sixth level of the martial arts realm, Qingqiu turned her head and glanced towards the direction of the Kunlun Mirror beside her. Her eyes met Pei Yunxi's, and they nodded to each other. Then she said, "It seems that among those participating in this martial arts tournament, only your fourth sister is at the sixth level... But you should know your fourth sister's personality very well. If it were me... I might let you have a turn, but if it were her, she definitely wouldn't let you have a turn... right?"
In the end, Qingqiu seemed a little insecure.
After thinking for a moment, he continued, "Don't lie to me! If you're not at the sixth level, even if you participate, you probably won't be able to become the leader of the martial arts alliance!"
Because of Lin Qingshan, who was in seclusion for several years, no one knows his exact cultivation level. Moreover, Jing Zhe is at odds with him, so if they were to run into him, things would probably be very bad.
Therefore, Qingqiu didn't want him to take any risks.
"Third Sister, don't worry! I know what I'm doing! I won't act rashly if I'm not confident! Besides, this position of Martial Arts Alliance Leader is extremely important to me, and if I take it, it will only benefit the Qingyun Sect!"
Qingqiu believed that.
Of course, she was happy that her younger brother had actually become the leader of the martial arts world. As for their Qingyun Sect—it didn't seem to matter whether they won or not, since her brother would help her anyway…
Compared to Qingyun Sect, helping Jing Zhe was tantamount to siding with their own people, which Qingqiu thought was perfectly normal.
He nodded and said, "Alright, I agree, but we still need to find two other sects!"
Then she looked to both sides and said, "Your fourth sister is naturally fine in Kunlun Mirror, but Wuxian Pavilion is represented by Pavilion Master Mu in the martial arts competition, so it seems difficult to talk to her. Tongtian Que is represented by Qiu Qianqian, and every time she sees you, she seems to want to kill you, so it's also difficult to talk to her. Who are you planning to talk to?"
Jing Zhe pretended to be deep in thought, but inwardly he was overjoyed.
Are these two difficult to talk to?
It doesn't exist!
“Qiu Qianqian is indeed difficult to talk to. After all, there’s the connection between Pavilion Master Mu and the Garden Master. I’ll give it a try; maybe it will work!”
Upon hearing this, Qingqiu suddenly understood.
"It seems I was overthinking it. You are the son-in-law of Wuxian Pavilion, and by all accounts, the son-in-law of Pavilion Master Mu's disciple. Pavilion Master Mu should help his son-in-law out of this!"
"..."
Jing Zhe chuckled twice, but didn't reply.
Only someone with a screw loose would force themselves on a woman when she's jealous!
Besides, he's not Mu Qingren's apprentice or son-in-law, he's her man...
Thinking of this, he thought of Mu Qingren's endless gentleness and Wang Yingqiu's lingering charm. Both of them had a mature and sophisticated aura, but Mu Qingren was more beautiful. However, Wang Yingqiu, having spent more time training outside, appeared more mature than her master. The two maintained different charms, which excited him just thinking about it.
"Third sister, please take care of things with fourth sister for me!"
"Me? I'll take care of it for you?"
Qingqiu was taken aback for a moment, then said with dissatisfaction, "Why don't you go find your fourth sister yourself? What am I supposed to do?"
Jing Zhe looked miserable: "Third Sister knows perfectly well that I've always been terrified of Fourth Sister. I can't even speak after just one look at her, let alone say this to her."
Upon hearing his words, Qingqiu seemed to become interested, and a slight smile suddenly appeared on her usually aloof face.
"You were afraid of your fourth sister when you were little, are you still afraid now?"
When he was young, Jing Zhe was mischievous and always caused trouble outside. People would often come to his door to complain. At that time, Jing Wenmao was busy with official business and couldn't take care of him.
So when Jing Zhe got into trouble, it was mostly his seven older sisters who helped him deal with it. However, their methods of dealing with the trouble differed. For example, the younger sixth and seventh sisters would always stand behind Jing Zhe, hands on their hips, looking adorable as if to say, "My little brother did nothing wrong."
The fifth brother, Liu Jinghong, would stand in front of Jing Zhe, adopting an attitude of "come to me if you have any problems, don't make things difficult for my brother."
The older women, such as her and her second sister Zhu Xinning, would play the role of virtuous wives and loving mothers. When others came to their door and they found out that it was Jing Zhe's fault, they would quickly apologize. However, after the others left, they would still scold and instruct Jing Zhe. However, since they were gentle by nature, they would never be too harsh.
It seems that five of the older sisters are on Jing Zhe's side, but there is one exception: the fourth sister, Pei Yunxi.
If Jing Zhe is innocent, she will stand up for him; if Jing Zhe is wrong, she will not hesitate to hit him.
So back then, Jing Zhe wasn't afraid of anyone except Pei Yunxi. Therefore, when Qing Qiu heard Jing Zhe say that, she instantly felt that the scenes from her childhood had returned, which was very beautiful.
"When you were little, you were my older sisters. Does that mean you're not anymore now that you're grown up?"
Jing Zhe smiled, then pressed his face against Qing Qiu's cheek, speaking intimately.
