Chapter 838: Saving People (3)
"Thank you, big brother." Xie Jingxing smiled and said, "That's what I want."
Chen Qiu snorted coldly: "Then don't blame me for being merciless to you. It's just that the weapon you chose is too poor."
Xie Jingxing twitched the corners of his mouth.
Although he was wearing a mask, the smile on his lips always seemed to be a bit nonchalant and mocking, which could easily irritate people. Shen Qiu immediately raised a spear and pointed it directly at Xie Jingxing.
Luo Xueyan covered her face.
"Please, big brother." Xie Jingxing said politely.
"How shameless!" Shen Qiu rushed forward with a spear in his hand.
Many years later, the mighty young general Shen, who was once feared by all, has become the veteran general Shen. His brilliant military achievements have made him the envy of countless people. He has won countless victories and is known as the God of War. He is respected and worshipped by all martial artists... But he still clearly remembers this afternoon with warm sunlight. It will become an indelible memory for him for countless years to come... and a shame.
No one could see clearly what was going on. Shen Qiu rushed over with a gun, and the two of them got into a mess, but soon they separated. Shen Qiu's gun fell to the ground, and King Rui held the dagger between two fingers and placed it steadily on Shen Qiu's neck.
Everyone in the Shen family: "..."
Prince Rui loosened his grip, twirled the dagger between his fingertips, then looked at Chen Qiu with a half-smile and said, "Thank you, big brother, for letting me."
After hearing these six words, Shen Qiu's face suddenly turned purple.
Everyone in the Shen family looked at each other, confused as to what this meant. Luo Tan murmured, "Cousin Qiu...did he lose?"
Everyone was shocked.
Among the younger generation of Mingqi, Shen Qiu's martial arts skills were second to none, though no one dared to claim first place. Firstly, Shen Qiu had personally taught him since childhood. The Shen family had been soldiers for generations, and they kept many martial arts books hidden in their home, so Shen Qiu could be considered to have a deep foundation. Secondly, Shen Qiu had been brought along by Shen Qiu to fight on the battlefield since he was still a child, giving him the experience of fighting with real swords and spears. With these two factors, Shen Qiu's martial arts skills were truly top-notch, without a single flaw.
But Shen Qiu's gun was actually taken away by King Rui, and King Rui's dagger was still on Shen Qiu's neck. No matter how you look at it, it seems that Shen Qiu is not alive.
Shen Qiu gritted his teeth, feeling unwilling, but he had to say: "I accept the loss."
Luo Tan was the first to clap his hands and shout, "Brother-in-law is so amazing! You can beat my cousin Qiu, you are the best in Mingqi!"
Luo Ling quickly covered Luo Tan's mouth. Luo Tan was Shen Qiu's cousin after all, yet she was encouraging an outsider. Shen Qiu must have been even more upset after hearing this. He glanced at Luo Xueyan with some uneasiness. Thinking that her son had lost to an outsider, Luo Xueyan must have felt uncomfortable. But when he turned around, he saw Luo Xueyan had already hurriedly walked over to the returning Prince Rui and said, "Jingxing, your martial arts are so good?"
"I've practiced martial arts since I was young, but they're all fancy moves," Prince Rui said with a smile. "I'm not as steady and practical as my elder brother. I'm ashamed."
"Young people shouldn't always be so modest," Luo Xueyan said. "If you have the ability to be proud, you should be proud. That's what youth should be like."
Shen Miao silently thought in her heart, Xie Jingxing is already the most proud person in the world, if he is made prouder, he will be able to ascend to the sky...
Overall, the meal was a thoroughly enjoyable one for both host and guest. Luo Xueyan and Luo Tan asked Xie Jingxing many more questions about martial arts. Xie Jingxing's attitude was perfectly humble, yet he seemed to know everything, which quickly surprised Luo Xueyan. After Xie Jingxing left and everyone dispersed, Luo Xueyan continued to mutter, "Prince Rui looks quite good. Putting aside his status, his courage, talent, beauty, and character alone are among the best in the world."
