Chapter 573: Chapter 573: The Rival in Love Appears
Ye Qingtian paused for a moment, then walked forward.
The next moment, a clear female voice made him stop again.
"Young Master Shen, with your pathetic skills, do you really think you can go after my friend Qianxiao?"
"You shameless woman, you really don’t know what’s good for you. Brothers, take her down and have some fun first. Even though she’s not as good as Hua Qianxiao, she’s still a beauty."
A cold voice sounded.
This voice was very familiar to Ye Qingtian.
However, what he couldn’t understand was why Qin Lingyue would call Hua Qianxiao her friend?
"That foolish girl really has some tricks up her sleeve, turning my enemy into her friend."
Ye Qingtian chuckled softly, then lifted his head.
In the bamboo forest ahead, a girl of seventeen or eighteen was clenching her pink fists, confronting several hulking men.
"Hmm? After a month without seeing her, that woman has already reached the level of an Initial-Level Martial God."
However, her body still bore some bloodstains.
Wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, she, in her flowing white attire, began to fight with Young Master Shen and his men.
Bang!
The battle was fierce, but the frail Qin Lingyue was no match for the few hulking men.
Soon, Qin Lingyue was left with no power to retaliate.
Young Master Shen flashed an evil grin, "Little lady, let me have my way with you."
Slap!
Slap!
Slap!
Slap!
Four crisp slaps rang out, followed by four miserable cries as a dark shadow flitted by.
Young Master Shen and his subordinates were all slapped flying.
Qin Lingyue stood straight with a face full of pain, her complexion pale.
She thanked the youth who had his back to her, "Classmate, thank you."
"Woman, having the word ’thank you’ come from your mouth truly isn’t easy."
The youth slowly turned around and looked at the astonished Qin Lingyue, and said softly.
"Ye Qingtian!" Staring at the face she hadn’t seen for a month, Qin Lingyue was full of astonishment.
"Don’t you recognize me?"
Ye Qingtian chuckled faintly, this woman once couldn’t stand him.
However, she just said she was Hua Qianxiao’s friend, yet wouldn’t divulge any information about her; because of this, the past grudge was no more.
"Of course I remember, we even had a marriage agreement."
With a bitter smile, Qin Lingyue looked at Ye Qingtian, feeling quite conflicted inside.
If she hadn’t treated him like that back then, might she already be his wife now?
After so much turmoil and deceit, she gradually understood that the memories from the Mortal World were the most precious.
After all, he had spent so much time with her day and night.
"Lingyue." It was the first time Ye Qingtian used the name Lingyue instead of woman.
"By the way, why did they just try to rough you up?" Ye Qingtian asked.
"After Qianxiao came to Class One, I volunteered to go to Class One too. Later we became friends, and Young Master Shen, knowing we were close, tried to get information about Qianxiao from me."
"They’ve been pestering me for over a week, and today they just couldn’t hold back from taking action."
Qin Lingyue said somewhat helplessly.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingtian let out a bitter laugh; that girl Hua Qianxiao really knows how to "attract bees and butterflies".
"Qingtian, she’s the perfect match for you, but you must strive hard; Qianxiao is the most beautiful girl I’ve ever seen, and many geniuses at Celestial Martial Academy have been pursuing her these days."
"If you’re not diligent, your flower might be picked by someone else."
Qin Lingyue said with a smile.
"Haha, even if I’m not diligent, Qianxiao’s heart will always be with me; others aren’t qualified."
Ye Qingtian laughed softly, he still had that confidence.
"You... your arrogance skill has really grown; if other geniuses hear those words, they’ll definitely fight you to the death."
Qin Lingyue shook her head, but upon closer thought, Ye Qingtian indeed had the right to be arrogant.
A teenager, shrouded in mystery, it left people speechless.
At this moment, a dark shadow suddenly flew over, stepping into the air for a few steps, landing in front of the two.
A light breeze blew by, lifting his long black robe, making him look graceful and handsome.
A faint Spiritual Qi slowly seeped out from within his body.
"I give you two choices, one, leave Celestial Martial Academy, two, die here."
The black-robed man’s voice was calm and distant.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingtian chuckled, a bit of defiance rising on his slightly delicate face.
"Are you qualified?"
The calm words rippled through the air.
The black-robed man’s eyes turned icy as he looked at the defiant youth, saying no more.
Then, a cloud of black mist appeared in his palm.
If you listened closely, it was as if there were wails and howls within it.
"Demon Attribute Spiritual Qi, it’s my first time seeing it in the Hidden Sect," Ye Qingtian said blandly.
Almost ninety-nine percent of the martial artists cultivate the same Spiritual Qi, but some with extremely strong talent can cultivate another attribute of Spiritual Qi.
And the black-robed man in front of him was such a person.
Without any change in expression, a faint Spiritual Qi gradually emanated from within Ye Qingtian, who calmly regarded the black-robed man, without fear or cowardice.
"Qianxiao can only belong to the strong!"
The black-robed man said indifferently.
Then, he stomped heavily, his black figure dashing swiftly and elegantly towards Ye Qingtian.
His attack was incredibly fierce, as if it pierced through the void.
Seeing such a formidable attack, Ye Qingtian’s expression did not change at all.
The faint Spiritual Qi slowly transferred from his body to his palm, "After lying dormant for this month, it’s not bad to use you for practice."
"I hope you can withstand one of my moves."
He softly murmured, just about to make a move when Qin Lingyue stepped in front of him.
"Stop, Lin Wufeng!"
Qin Lingyue shouted with a cute, but stern drink, making her words stand out in that space.
The shadow did not pause, completely ignoring Qin Lingyue’s interference.
At the crucial moment, a beam of white light shot down from the sky.
Boom!
A black and a white light collided, the clash of black and white forces producing a thunderous rumble.
When the white light appeared, Ye Qingtian did not strike.
He of course knew who was behind the white light.
The dust settled, revealing a beautiful figure standing before Ye Qingtian and Qin Lingyue, confronting Lin Wufeng.
The girl’s pretty face held slight anger, as she looked at Lin Wufeng.
"Qianxiao, why is it you?" Upon the white-clad girl’s appearance, Lin Wufeng was slightly taken aback.
"What did you just do?" Hua Qianxiao asked sharply.
"Tomorrow is the Martial Arts Examination, I was just testing Ye, if he can’t even withstand one of my moves, he’d be eliminated anyway in the exam."
Lin Wufeng replied blandly.
"In consideration of our past connections as classmates, I won’t hold it against you this time, but if you go too far again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
Hua Qianxiao frowned elegantly, speaking coldly.
Upon hearing this, Lin Wufeng furrowed his brows.
"Ye, did taking a month’s leave make you a coward? Otherwise, why are you hiding behind a woman?"
