Longevity starts from having a daughter in old age - Chapter 214
Chapter 214: Chapter 183 – Petty-Minded_1
“To reach this level while having an incomplete soul, I am really curious about you, Junior Brother Xu!”
Qu Qingdream traced her lips with her fingers, full of infinite allure in her gaze.
“If senior sister is truly curious, you can come to Lonely Sword Peak tonight, and let’s discuss it in depth!” Xu Mu said with a laughter.
Qu Qingdream was left speechless!
The audience was left speechless!
Shang YaoYao was gnashing her teeth in anger.
This jerk, how could he be so frivolous? Saying such things in public.
“It’s over! It’s over! Senior Brother Xu is done for!” Qi Yue suddenly mumbled.
“What do you mean by that?” Li Heng asked, puzzled.
“You don’t know, on the outside, Sister Qu seems warm and unrestrained, but in reality, her heart is as small as a needle tip. If Senior Brother Xu says such things in public, Sister Qu is certainly going to… Ahchoo!”
Qi Yue sneezed, feeling a chill on his back. He turned around and saw Qu Qingdream giving him a meaningful glance. Qi Yue shivered, forcing an awkward smile on his face, worse than crying.
No way! She could hear my words all the way through the formation!
I forgot to mention, Qu Qingdream is also a disciple of the Luo Jian Peak.
Qi Yue dared to speak ill of her, he would definitely be punished when he got back.
Ignoring Qi Yue’s plea for mercy, Qu Qingdream looked at Xu Mu and continued to smile, “If you wanna go deep into discussion, first show me if you have the power!”
“What do you mean by that?”
“If you can beat me, then even late at night would be fine!” Qu Qingdream teased.
“Since senior sister said so, I have to win today. I only hope you don’t intentionally let me win and allow others to see that you have feelings for me! Haha!” Xu Mu laughed.
Qu Qingdream nearly choked on her own spit.
Don’t you know what you look like? You really think I’m interested in you? You should take a good look at yourself.
Qu Qingdream was just about to retort, when the presiding elder interrupted.
Do you two think this is a market place? You’re even starting to quarrel here!
“You two, calm down, outsiders are watching too!” The presiding elder reminded coldly.
Qu Qingdream could only swallow her words and decided to settle the score with him after the match.
As the two of them prepared, the bell signaling the start of the contest rang on time, but this time neither of them were in a hurry to make a move.
Qu Qingdream took out a Guqin (a type of ancient musical instrument) and floated it in front of herself.
She gently strummed the strings, producing a pleasant and melodious sound.
“How about a bet, Junior Brother Xu?”
“Bet on what?” Xu Mu laughed.
“If you can remain unscathed after listening to my song, I’ll willingly admit defeat!”
“Junior Brother Xu, don’t agree!”
Shang YaoYao shouted loudly, attracting many eyes.
“Ahem! I just wanted to remind him!” Faced with everyone’s gaze, an awkward Shang YaoYao explained quickly.
She had placed a lot of money on this bet. If she loses, she would be heartbroken.
For her stake, she didn’t want Xu Mu to be reckless.
“I agree!”
Xu Mu acted as if he hadn’t heard Shang YaoYao’s reminder and agreed without hesitation.
You jerk! Only caring about girls and forgetting your friends!
Shang YaoYao couldn’t help but curse Xu Mu as an idiot in her heart.
“But, it seems like I’m at a disadvantage in this bet?” Xu Mu suddenly laughed.
“Oh? So what do you want?” Qu Qingdream’s gaze flickered.
“I think we should add a condition. If I win, Senior Sister will become my dao companion!”
The scene fell into silence.
Shang YaoYao was so angry that she was about to grind her teeth into pieces.
This jerk really has no sense of comradeship. He’s not thinking about helping me win money, all he’s thinking about is picking up girls.
Don’t you know that lust can be as sharp as a knife?
Don’t you know that lust is a bone cutting knife, and a gut piercing medicine?
Don’t you know that the more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to deceive?
Don’t you know that…
Just as Shang YaoYao was ceaselessly cursing Xu Mu in her heart, those disciples who admired Qu Qingdream couldn’t hold back any longer.
“Who do you think you are! You actually want to marry Senior Sister Qu, in your dreams!”
“Kid, let’s duel. Whoever wins gets Senior Sister Qu!”
“Senior Sister Qu is mine, no one can take her away!”
The crowd below was outraged, causing chaos.
“Your sect’s disciples, they are truly unexpected indeed!”
The elder of the Plum Blossom Sect who was sitting next to the Sect Master of Tianhe Sect chuckled meaningfully.
“Sect Master Feng, your sect needs to do better in terms of educating your disciples!”
An elder from the Ling Snake Valley retorted sarcastically.
“Young people ought to be a bit lively.” The Elder of Tianhe Sect countered calmly.
Although he was also displeased with Xu Mu, he definitely would not talk ill of his own people in front of outsiders.
“This is not liveliness, it is ill-intentions. If not eliminated in time, it could lead to endless trouble! Of course, I’m just suggesting! I hope everyone here doesn’t misunderstand!” The Elder of Ling Snake Valley laughed ominously.
“Haha! Let’s focus on the competition!”
The Sect Master of Tianhe Sect motioned his own elder not to speak, and laughingly diverted the topic.
He invited the two sects for cooperation, not for trouble. There was no need to engage in an argument over such a trifling matter.
To them, this competition was merely a form of entertainment.
On the stage, a murderous glint flashed in Qu Qingdream’s eyes.
This kid had the audacity to lay a hand on her.
However, she quickly realized that Xu Mu wasn’t making a proposition, he simply didn’t plan on agreeing.
Because she absolutely couldn’t accept his condition, thus naturally their bet would come to nothing.
Just as she was deliberating whether to let Xu Mu save face or straightforwardly reject it, Xu Mu spoke again, “My previous condition was just a joke. If Senior Sister loses, just take this Yaoqin and give it to me.”
“Are you sure?” Qu Qingdream asked with a hint of skepticism.
Although this Yaoqin was precious, it was insignificant compared to the rewards of victory.
“Sure!” Xu Mu nodded and continued, “If Senior Sister agrees, let’s begin!”
Xu Mu put his hands in his sleeves, posing as if he was ready for her to attack.
“This kid-”
Shang YaoYao’s feelings were quite complicated at this moment. She felt proud for Xu Mu not being seduced by beauty, but also thought he was foolish for actually agreeing.
Wait!
Could it be a strategy of pretending to weaken the enemy?
The scoundrel!
Shang YaoYao felt that she had guessed correctly once again.
On the stage, Xu Mu didn’t think that much. He just wanted to end the competition in the simplest way possible.
Qu Qingdream hesitatingly looked at Xu Mu for a few moments before saying, “Fine! If I lose, this Yaoqin is yours!”
The moment her words fell, she gently brushed the strings of the Yaoqin, and layers of sound waves surged up like waves.
“It’s over! This time Senior Brother Xu is really done for!” Qi Yue mumbled low. “Why is it ‘over’ again?” Li Heng frowned.
This guy just cannot say anything goodcan’t he.
Luo Qingchen looked at Qi Yue, waiting for his explanation.
Although she also endorsed Xu Mu using such an impulsive way to decide the outcome, she still had faith in Xu Mu.
Qi Yue behaved as if Xu Mu was destined to lose, which made her feel uncomfortable.
“The melody Senior Sister Qu is playing is the Soul-breaking Tune, a secret skill specifically for attacking souls. It is not comparable to the coarse magic artefact of Bai Yingwu. Even regular Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators may not be able to withstand it, let alone Xu Mu with his damaged soul. If he’s not done for now, it would be strange!” sighed Qi Yue.
If Xu Mu launched an attack to interrupt the casting, there might be hope of survival. But it was too difficult to persist through it this way.
As expected, the charms of a woman do lead to disaster, I must not follow Senior Brother’s example in the future!
I must restrain myself from the opposite sex in the future!
Qi Yue silently reminded himself.
“Really?”
Li Heng dubiously looked towards the stage.
At this moment, Qu Qingdream played faster and faster. The layers of sound waves seemed substantial, not only filling the entire stage but also diffusing through the formation, making the nearby disciples faint instantly. Fortunately, an elder was nearby and acted fast, preventing a tragedy.
“If it’s already this potent through the formation, wouldn’t it be even more daunting on stage!!”
Everyone couldn’t help but look at Xu Mu, only to discover he was calm and composed, even seeming rather at ease, as if the sound that could destroy a person’s soul didn’t exist.
“No, he’s resisting! Look at his eyes!”
Someone with sharp eyes noticed that Xu Mu’s eyes were slowly emitting a purple glow, just like wearing purple-colored contact lenses.
The more powerful Qu Qingdream’s attack, the more intense the purple halo around Xu Mu’s eyes.
By the time Qu Qingdream became visibly drained, her fingers blurred into numerous illusions, and the sound waves reached their maximum, the purple halo in Xu Mu’s pupil also reached nine layers.
“Isn’t that our Tianhe Sect’s Divine Secret Skill – Purple Radiant Soul Ring, which no one has been able to cultivate successfully in the past five hundred years!”
