Cohabitation with Sword Spirit-Chapter 239 - 200: Watching the Drama Is Risky

Facing the questioning from the nameless elder of the Qian Family, Li Wanqing swiftly turned the tables, pressuring her opponent until he could barely breathe and could not utter any forceful words.

Li Wanqing would not miss this opportunity, advancing step by step, making the nameless elder of the Qian Family increasingly embarrassed under the watchful eyes of everyone.

"I believe that at least regarding my reminder on contraception, your Qian Family should sincerely thank me. Otherwise, if Zhou Yu unfortunately ends up carrying the seed of your Qian Family, it would be difficult for your elders, who love political and beneficial marriages, to keep Zhou Yu, this little beauty, from entering the doors of the Qian Family."

"Nonsense, we would never interfere with Ye'Er's freedom to love and marry!"

"That's only because no one has ever interfered with the marriage freedom of an eternal bachelor like you, since you can't find a wife anyway."

"You!?" The long-single nameless elder of the Qian Family was almost ready to explode on the spot, but for a moment, he didn't know how to refute... after all, Li Wanqing made too much sense!

But after thinking it over, the elder of the Qian Family forced a counterattack: "I heard you always like dating women and have once shamelessly seduced Zhou Yu. Now, you push your own woman out as bait!?"

"Although I like girls, I respect them more. It's certainly good if they like me, but if they can't accept me as a fellow woman and still want to be with a man, I won't stop them. Zhou Yu is truly sincere towards Qian Ye, so of course, I will honestly give my opinion." Li Wanqing said, smiling, and added, "Besides, I really don't think Qian Ye can win, so whatever Zhou Yu promises doesn't matter."

"...So, you want to say that from start to finish, it has nothing to do with you?"

Li Wanqing displayed a weary expression that suggested she really did not want to argue with fools, waving her hand, she said: "Forget it, if you have to drag me into this, then say I schemed against Qian Ye, that's fine. I don't mind bearing the bad name of a schemer. As long as you don't mind letting Qian Ye bear the bad name of a horny fool."

"What did you say!?"

"What did I say, can't you hear clearly? This is just hysterically refusing to accept reality." Li Wanqing said, her expression turning slightly cold, "Honestly, whether it's Zhou Yu or being a virgin, they're just triggers. The real root lies in your Qian Family's reckless pursuit of quick success, handing Qian Ye a trump card he couldn't handle. Ha, ignite the heart blood, fully strengthen the Golden Bloodline, combine the Three States of Broken Sword, Broken Skill, and Breaking Strike, even if it means going berserk... do you really think such opportunistic, clumsy means could win at the final stage of the Cyan Cloud Competition? When facing opponents of the same level, ensuring all your cards are stable and controllable is key. Otherwise, whose family doesn't have berserk cultivation techniques? If I fully activate the black aura on my Moral Armor, I can instantly become faster and stronger than Qian Ye, do you believe it?"

The elder of the Qian Family was speechless, unsure whether to answer yes or no, and the crowd gathered thicker, comprising not just gossip enthusiasts but also professionals like Meng Wen and Yue Lian arriving, hinting at a slightly out-of-control situation.

Fortunately, at this moment, another person parted the crowd and approached.

"Alright, let's end this topic here."

Hearing this voice, the nameless elder of the Qian Family shivered, cold sweat pouring from his forehead. He promptly bowed and stepped aside, respectfully lowering his head, murmuring a few times without daring to say more.

The newcomer was none other than Qian Long, the highest-ranking figure of the Qian Family in the Aozora Martial Arts Arena. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺

This master of the Qian Family looked quite embarrassed and tired, his gaze towards Li Wanqing filled with complexity.

After a long while, he sighed, cupped his hands, and said: "Our family acted rashly, questioning you without understanding the situation, I apologize. We are aware of Ye'Er's issues; indeed, this is our Qian Family's disgrace, unrelated to outsiders... It's ultimately our own humiliation."

Pausing, Qian Long added: "However, there is one thing I don't understand: how did you know about the fatal flaw hidden in Ye'Er's Impeccable Golden Man?"

Once these words came out, there was a sudden noise of realization among the surrounding crowd.

Indeed, this was a critical issue.

Previously, Li Wanqing had explained a lot, seemingly clearing herself of responsibility, yet she hadn't answered this question: how did she know about the flaw in the Impeccable Golden Man? Especially when she just pointed directly to the error in the Qian Family's battle strategy, it indicated she was well-versed in all the technical details.

With this, the whole matter, from Qian Ye and Zhou Yu making a private lifetime commitment, to Qian Ye going berserk on the spot, all seemed to be within her calculation. Especially considering her repeated use of the 'virgin' term to provoke and guide Qian Ye's thoughts during fierce combat, diverting his attention to private matters with Zhou Yu... it seemed even more evidently premeditated.

This way, perhaps the core reason for Qian Ye's failure was the Qian Family's reckless pursuit of quick success, mistakenly arranging the trump card. But as the catalyst, Li Wanqing, can't be considered innocent. Using such schemes to make Qian Ye display a disgraceful state under public attention, even less so commendable.

Li Wanqing froze for a moment, then suddenly chuckled: "Boss Qian, why are you asking such a question? Do you also think the drama just now was entirely directed by me? To be honest, if it were controllable, I definitely wouldn't have directed that scene. At least you in the audience could see a vague shield covering the shame; here, I had to take it all, severely impacting my pure heart."

Regarding this, Qian Long snorted disdainfully and asked again, "The Qian Family's Twelve Golden Bloodlines may not be a world-class secret, but to know it so deeply, and even understand the flaw of the No-Leak Golden Blood after it's frenzied from the Blood Sacrifice, is rare. The match result is set, and I don't intend to argue over it, but at least, I want to know why my family's secrets have fallen into someone else's hands? Li Wanqing, I believe with your current realm, you can't see through the flaw of the No-Leak Golden Blood. What you can know, at most, are Ye'Er's Broken Sword, Broken Skill, and Breaking Strike, these three major forms. As for the Three States Combined, Blood Sacrifice Refining Technique, even within the Qian Family Mansion, it's a top secret. So, who told you this secret?"

As soon as the words fell, someone in the crowd raised an arm and responded warmly, "It was me."

Qian Long turned his head and was somewhat surprised to see a face that, no matter how many times seen, still felt stunning.

"Wang Jiu, you!?"

Qian Long's brows instantly furrowed tight.

How could it be Wang Jiu? No, this makes sense... Indeed, if it is Wang Jiu, it actually makes sense!

Because, within the Qian Family Mansion, there is someone with quite high authority, yet who longs for outsiders. If it was her, then everything makes sense.

Thinking of this, Qian Long's heart gave a thump, and all his Qi Blood surged up.

"So it's indeed you using Qian Yue to steal the Qian Family's secrets..."

Before Wang Jiu could answer, Qian Long suddenly saw a tender white hand fiercely waving beside him.

As a Cultivator in the Mountain-Overturning Realm, Qian Long had sharp enough reflexes to first block that tender wrist, then his gaze followed the arm... unsurprisingly, he saw his precious daughter's very angry face.

"Yue'Er..."

Qian Yue didn't even look at her own dad. She turned her head to Wang Jiu and said, "Mr. Wang Jiu, please draw a picture of me slapping my dad with all my might, as vividly as possible!"

"Hmm, alright." Wang Jiu did not understand why but since it was Qian Yue's request, he agreed.

His hand was extremely fast, almost instantaneously, he produced a vivid picture at a speed that would amaze countless newspaper reporters, showing Qian Yue standing tall, her tender white hand vigorously slapping Qian Long's face, who looked silly yet surprisingly delighted, his face flushed red...

"Haha!" Without caring about her wrist still being held by her dad, Qian Yue beamed with joy, "Mr. Wang Jiu, you're the best! Yes, I feel much better after looking at it!"

"Qian Yue!" At this moment, Qian Long's anger truly erupted like a volcano, unstoppable. Many newspaper reporters who interacted with the Qian Family and other onlookers felt a fear like a wild rabbit meeting a predatory beast.

But the next moment...

"Yelling for what!? Don't you feel embarrassed enough?" Qian Yue retorted fearlessly, forcefully pulling her wrist free, raised her eyebrows in fury, and shouted at Qian Long, "Use your brain! After all, you're my dad, you can't be this stupid, can you!? Mr. Wang Jiu stealing Qian Family's secrets using me!? Ridiculous! If there's such a chance, I would've sold you all out long ago! Would I need to wait until the Cyan Cloud Grand Competition!? Why did Brother Ye lose, why the secrets of the Qian Family were exposed, can't you really see!? Or are you so losing-minded that you can only think about shifting blame!?"

After finishing, Qian Yue swept her slightly reddened eyes around coldly.

"And you, what's so funny? Don't you know some spectacles should be unaffordable for you!? Offending both the Qian Family and Li Family, have you considered the consequences? My dad is an adult, some words are inconvenient to speak, but as a 15-year-old girl, I can be unfiltered, so let me be clear, I'm counting to 5, anyone still here then is my sworn enemy!"

Following this, before Qian Yue counted to 3, the surrounding crowd dispersed like a blast.

Once the crowd was gone, Qian Yue sighed and said to Qian Long: "Dad, apologize to Sister Wanqing and Mr. Wang Jiu, then go home."

Qian Long looked at his daughter with complex emotions, speechless for a long time.

"Don't look at me like that, I didn't say I forgive you, the issue of compensation between us will be settled separately later, certainly not solved by just an apology, don't dream."

"..."
