"Too slow? Yuwen Yao, why don't you try being thrown down like this?"
“If, just now, someone had tried to kill you like this, wouldn’t you be dead?” Yuwen Yao said, his voice slightly low.
Xie Lingqin felt a sense of defeat at being looked down upon. "I'm not slow, it's just that just now..." Xie Lingqin raised an eyebrow. "How about we have a competition? You're not allowed to use your internal energy, only your strength and techniques."
"good."
Yuwen Yao took a step back, thought for a moment, and said in a very considerate tone, "I'll give you a handicap."
this……
I utterly despise her.
Xie Lingqin felt that Yuwen Yao was not cute at all when he got serious.
but……
Let him see what she's capable of.
She admitted he was very powerful, but she wouldn't necessarily lose even without using her internal energy.
Immediately, Xie Lingqin launched a lightning-fast straight punch at Yuwen Yao, but before she could even get close to Yuwen Yao's face, her hand was caught by him.
Xie Lingqin looked at her tightly gripped hand, a calculating glint in her eyes. Immediately, she pinched Yuwen Yao's waist with her other hand.
However, it was just a feint. The real attack came from a long leg hook that swung directly at Yuwen Yao's lower body...
This is a technique for dealing with perverts and turning the tables on them.
but……
To Xie Lingqin's surprise, her two feints, coupled with her lightning-fast agility, were all neutralized by Yuwen Yao. Not only that, but Yuwen Yao barely made a move before grabbing Xie Lingqin's ankle with his other hand. If he hadn't been able to pull back his strength, Xie Lingqin would probably be split in two right now.
"Do you admit defeat?" Yuwen Yao held Xie Lingqin's ankle with one hand and pulled her wrist with the other, making her stand on only one foot.
This is truly frustrating.
Xie Lingqin's face flushed with anger. Being subdued like this without any power to fight back was truly a first for her. The worst part was that this person had just been so fond of her, yet now he was so ruthless.
"Yuwen Yao, let go."
"So, you lost, but within three moves, it was still the result of me yielding again and again." Yuwen Yao did indeed slowly release his grip, but the words that came out of his mouth were anything but tactful, causing Xie Lingqin's starry eyes to darken.
His face was also terrifyingly dark.
Why can't Yuwen Yao let her have her way?
“If I were to let you have an easy time teaching me martial arts, you wouldn’t be able to improve. I’m doing this for your own good, and I think you understand that.” Yuwen Yao seemed to have seen through Xie Lingqin’s thoughts, and he spoke slowly with his thin lips slightly parted.
At that moment, I truly felt like I was being treated as a teacher.
Xie Lingqin glanced at him and said, "You're amazing, you're incredible."
In her past life, she was at least the most outstanding special agent. How could she be so humiliated? She has no pride.
Although what he said made perfect sense.
"Alright, that's enough for tonight, we'll start tomorrow night." Yuwen Yao had already made his own cheerful decision.
Xie Lingqin...
She didn't want him to teach her, but what he said made perfect sense, and his martial arts skills and speed were indeed something she greatly admired.
No, it's more like worship.
But should we let him teach?
She felt frustrated.
"Let's talk about it tomorrow night. I'm going back to sleep." Xie Lingqin pursed her lips, her dissatisfaction written all over her face.
"Xie Lingqin, I love you. That's why I want you to have the ability to protect yourself. I don't want to restrict you, but I want you to grow. There will be many storms along the way. I hope that if one day I am not by your side, at least every time you fight back, it will be after giving it your all and without regret."
Yuwen Yao's words were carried by the wind to Xie Lingqin's ears.
Xie Lingqin turned around upon hearing the sound and looked at Yuwen Yao.
Under the moonlight, he stood amidst the distant green mountains, as if bathed in a lustrous glow, like a deity descending to earth. Every word he uttered was a sincere and earnest expression.
He was truly devoted to her; it was written all over his face.
Moreover, his joy and his love will not bind her.
This is a promise I made to her.
Yuwen Yao stood with his hands behind his back, a smile playing on his lips.
He simply had the upper hand. Really, she was already incredibly capable, but because she was with him, she had to become even more flawless.
After a short while, Yuwen Yao smiled and said, "Didn't you say you had something to tell me?"
Xie Lingqin's mind raced, and she nodded, "Yes."
"The Crown Prince of Western Xia has already prepared the antidote," Yuwen Yao said with a smile.
Xie Lingqin's eyes lit up. "So, I also have the antidote?"
“Of course.” Yuwen Yao nodded. “I have already sent someone to fetch it. However, after you were poisoned that day, the Crown Prince of Xixia must have known that you had poison in your body. Therefore, this antidote will definitely be protected very carefully and will take some time.”
"It's alright. Didn't you say I had three months to live? With that much time, I'm sure I can make it."
This is good news.
Xie Lingqin suddenly felt much more comfortable in her chest.
However, just in case, she still wanted to have the barbarians gather and plant medicinal herbs separately. Only by making two preparations could she truly feel at ease.
A gentle smile appeared in Xie Lingqin's eyes. "It's getting late. Let's go back to the manor."
"Cook some maocai for me."
"Huh?" Xie Lingqin was taken aback. "It's too late."
“You promised me before that you would cook me the first batch of maocai (a type of Sichuan hot pot) yourself.” Yuwen Yao said with a focused expression, indicating that he remembered those words very clearly.
Xie Lingqin's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
Oh no, of course she remembered those words.
only……
She never expected things to come to this point with Yuwen Yao, so she just went through the motions. In fact, she had already cooked it for Bai Yu the first time.
