On the other side, in the house where Zhou Qingruo once lived...
I saw Duanmu Lian's beautiful eyes flashing for a few times, reaching out to hug Zhou Qingruo's arms, and said with a smile, "Qingruo, we haven't competed for a long time, right?"
When Zhou Qingruo heard this, he couldn't help but frowned and asked doubtfully, "What do you mean?"
This is great, Duanmu Lian would actually take the initiative to discuss with him?
This really confused her, but after thinking about it, she knew it was definitely not a good thing!
Duanmu Lian blinked his beautiful eyes, licked his thin lips and said provocatively, "What? Qingruo, is it that you are too weak to dare to compete with me?"
The reason why she wants to fight Zhou Qingruo within the Duanmu clan naturally has her own reasons!
Unexpectedly, Zhou Qingruo just stared at Duanmu Lian for a few seconds and said lightly, "Not interested!"
Duanmu Lian was stunned. Apparently he didn't expect that he was provoking her so much, so he actually said he was not interested...
He said suspiciously, "That's not right! When I provoked you like this before, the real Duanmu... No, Zhou Qingruo was not like this!"
Zhou Qingruo said angrily, "Tell the truth, what is your purpose in sparring with me?"
Duanmu Lian swallowed his throat and said awkwardly, "This... I just want to test my own strength. After all, apart from the head of the family and the old head of the family, you are the only one in the Duanmu clan who can fight with me."
Zhou Qingruo's beautiful amber eyes narrowed even more, feeling that Duanmu Lian in front of her was lying, but she couldn't find a problem...
Asked again, "Is it really that simple??"
Duanmu Lian patted his chest righteously and said, "Of course, it's that simple! Qingruo, think about it, when have I ever tricked you? Just help me once, okay!"
After finishing speaking, he stared at Zhou Qingruo with his pitiful eyes, waiting for her answer...
Zhou Qingruo looked at the pleading look in her eyes, hesitated for a few seconds, nodded slightly and said, "Okay... okay."
I always feel like something bad is going to happen!
…
Soon after, all the disciples in Duanmu Mansion were discussing something...
One of the disciples said cautiously, "Have you heard? Elder Lian is actually going to confront Duanmu Qingruo, who betrayed our Duanmu clan!"
Another disciple next to him extended his index finger to cover his lips and warned, "Shh, stop talking nonsense! It is said that Duanmu Qingruo's true identity is the daughter of the family head!"
"Not only that, she was also an elder of our Duanmu clan back then, and her strength is even greater than that of Elder Lian!"
"Really or not? This Duanmu... Elder Yuan Qingruo is so powerful? Elder Lian's cultivation has reached the level of Immortal Lord! Even the head of the family may not be able to defeat her."
Suddenly, an exclamation interrupted the attention of these Duanmu family disciples...
"Everyone, hurry up and go to the martial arts arena. Elder Lian is about to compete with Duanmu Qingruo!"
In an instant, the eyes of the disciples who were still stuck on the spot lit up, and they all reacted, and they all moved towards the martial arts arena like a tide.
On the other side, Zhou Qingruo stood on the martial arts stage, his delicate cheeks looking a little gloomy...
Staring at Duanmu Lian not far away, he gritted his teeth and said, "Duanmu Lian, didn't you say it's that simple?"
If it was just a simple discussion, why should the news be spread out and attract so many disciples of the Duanmu clan to come and watch...
Forget about the disciples, why did Duanmushuo and the elders come together?
And as if it had been expected, even the seats had been arranged neatly, and it was just the two of them to start competing!
Duanmu Lian, who was opposite, blinked his watery eyes with an innocent expression and explained, "Qingruo, these disciples of the Duanmu clan are really not called here by me!"
Then he glanced at Duanmu Shuo and the others, coughing and saying, "Ahem... As for the head of the family, you also know that the two Immortal Lord Realms are competing. If you are not careful, it will be bad if the entire martial arts field is destroyed!"
"
And Zhou Qingruo's cold eyes stared at her like this, as if he wanted to say another word...
You pretend, you keep pretending!
It made Duanmu Lian feel a little embarrassed, "Well... we have reached this point, Qingruo, let's talk about anything after the competition is over!!"
Okay, she admitted that she had already planned this!
As for why she did this, the main reason was because of Zhou Qingruo. Her original intention was to make these Duanmu clan disciples change their views through this competition...
In this way, if Zhou Qingruo wants to return to the Duanmu clan in the future, he will have less trouble. After all, his strength lies here!
Thinking of this, the disciples of the Duanmu family below all started shouting...
"Come on, Elder Lian! Let this guy who defected from our Duanmu clan see that your strength is far beyond what she can match!"
"That's right! Elder Lian, let her see that the current strength of our Duanmu clan is far beyond what she can achieve!"
"Have mercy on the elder! Come on! Have mercy on the elder! Come on!"
Zhou Qingruo decisively ignored these Duanmu family disciples, looked at Duanmu Lian seriously and said, "Duanmu Lian, I will give you this face...but there will be no next time!"
"Besides, if I take action, I won't have any sense of propriety!"
The implication is obvious, she will try her best to treat this duel as a fight, which is also her habit!
Seeing that he didn't regret it, Duanmu Lian breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said "Okay" with the same seriousness.
After she finished speaking, Zhou Qingruo's amber eyes suddenly turned cold, "Then..."
A bloody sword exuding murderous intent quietly solidified in her hand. The next moment, its figure disappeared and rushed straight towards Duanmu Lian...
Duanmu Lian, who also drew his sword, faced him without fear...
Looking at the fierce duel between Zhou Qingruo and Duanmu Lian, one of the elders looked at Duanmu Shuo curiously and asked, "Master, who do you think will win between Elder Lian and Duanmu Qingruo?"
Duanmushuo and other elders all looked at the former with strange eyes...
Being stared at by everyone, the elder also panicked a little, "I...did I say the wrong thing?"
Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and hurriedly closed his mouth and stopped talking...
…
Library!
I saw Xu Sheng looking at the immortal martial arts in his hand with complicated eyes, and said, "It is indeed an immortal martial skill, but it is so difficult to understand! Even the cultivation method is half-understood!"
However, fortunately, he still learned it...
But it took about half an hour abruptly. Compared with the time required to practice heaven-level martial arts, it was a world of difference!
After shaking his head to throw away these thoughts, he turned his attention again to the other immortal martial arts...
"There is still a long way to go to complete the cultivation of all these immortal-level martial arts!"
