Chapter 225 - A Challenge To A Duel (1/2)

The first thing Qiu Ling saw when he neared the place where he felt the dragon mark was a black-robed man who was trying to shamelessly take advantage of his beloved. Qiu Ling frowned, hurried over and picked the guy up by the collar before throwing him aside.

”My love!” He sat down next to Jing Yi and gripped his hand, pulling him in for a kiss. ”Mn, I missed you!”

Jing Yi wanted to take a look at Niu Hai but Qiu Ling gripped his chin and turned his head back. Jing Yi sighed. ”It hasn't been that long, has it? Only a few hours.”

”Ah, just one hour without you is like an eternity in the darkest depth of hell. I feel terrible just thinking about it. Ah, my love, you have to heal me!”

Jing Yi leaned forward and circled his neck. ”And how would you have me do that?” He smiled indulgently. It wasn't that hard to imagine what his fiance would ask of him.

”With a kiss.” Qiu Ling pressed Jing Yi's hand against his chest and embraced his waist. ”How about it?”

Jing Yi cupped his cheek and lightly pecked his lips. ”Better?”

”A little. How about another one?”

Jing Yi looked up into those dark eyes. ”You won't be satisfied even after another kiss, will you?”

”You know me too well.” Qiu Ling pulled him closer and this time, he didn't let him pull back after just a peck. He held him gently and their lips met in a lingering kiss until both of them were short of breath.

”You can't complain now, can you?”

”Mn. Aiya, let's just make sure I'm alright.” Qiu Ling bent forward but just then a blade was thrust in his direction. He spun around, lifted a hand and caught the weapon. It turned out the idiot he had thrown away had come back. ”What, you still haven't gotten enough?”

”Who are you and what are you doing with Junior Martial Brother Jing?” Niu Hai frowned. This bastard! How dare he make a move on the cute junior in front of him!

”Why do you care? It's none of your business.” Qiu Ling twisted his hand and the blade broke in half. ”Hmph.” Qiu Ling ignored him. He might pay a little attention to someone like that Grandmaster Shen but a human such as this wasn't worth it. ”Mn, my love, why didn't you wait for me? Did I take too long?”

Jing Yi sighed and turned to Niu Hai. ”I'm sorry. This is … Long Jun. My fiance. He's a little short-tempered sometimes.”

Qiu Ling's eyes glittered. Ah, his beloved had actually introduced him as his fiance! Well, it was right that he did so since he was indeed his fiance but still! He felt so lucky right now!

”Your … your fiance?!” Niu Hai's expression derailed. The cute Junior Martial Brother actually had a fiance? This couldn't be! ”Since when?”

”Uh … Last year?”

Niu Hai staggered back. How was this possible? He had just fallen in love and now this happened! No, he couldn't accept this!

Niu Hai lifted his chin and tried to stare down at Qiu Ling. ”You! I'm challenging you to a duel!”

”On account of what?”

”I don't think you're a match for Junior Martial Brother Jing. He'd be way happier with me. So I challenge you to a duel. If I win, you'll leave him!”

Qiu Ling blinked. Ah? He was being challenged to a duel over his beloved? He turned toward Jing Yi and silently observed his face. This was too strange. Even in the nine heavens, nobody had challenged him to a duel over Jing He. Why was it happening now?
