Chapter 794 - I Don’t Even Know Him (1/2)

Elder Gongxi stared at Qiu Ling in a daze. All the sects? That was indeed very daring! He wouldn't have thought that he would be willing to go that far. It seemed he had really underestimated this person. Well, there was nothing he could do now besides hope that the other sects would raise a fuss about this. Then, there might be a way to get out of this agreement and still find a way to search around the Yun Zou Sect's premises. If he couldn't, then this mission would end as an utter failure.

Qiu Ling turned to Jing Yi and patted his back reassuringly before you looked at Nian Hong Fang. ”Junior martial brother Nian, why don't you bring Elder Gongxi and his disciples to a place where we could hold such an event? Jing Yi and I will go with Hong Bao and see what the other sects think. Then as soon as everybody's gathered, we can start with the duel.”

Nian Hong Fang nodded. ”That's a great idea, senior martial brother Qiu. We'll do it that way then.” He nodded and then turned to Elder Gongxi, cupping his fists and bowing. ”Elder Gongxi, if you and your disciples would like to follow me.”

Elder Gongxi looked at his disciples and nodded. There was no way for him to get out of this now. ”Of course. Lead the way then.” Everybody took out their swords and hopped onto them, following Nian Hong Fang away.

Qiu Ling turned to Hong Bao. ”Alright, let's go to that senior martial brother Liu of yours then. He shouldn't have any problem with taking part if you are here to help us.”

Hong Bao pursed her lips. ”Are you sure he won't mind? Actually, he told us to get comfortable in the courtyard that we were shown. I don't think he wanted me to go out and he might think I'm causing trouble if you tell him that I asked to take part in a duel.”

Jing Yi gave her a reassuring smile before Qiu Ling could answer. ”Don't worry about it! We can just not say that it was your idea. Or, well, we could tell him that it was an idea you suggested to help us since you saw that we wanted to have the duel. I'm sure he wouldn't mind as long as it is something that can be used to help the Yun Zou Sect out.”

Hong Bao nodded and heaved a sigh of relief. ”That's good then. You know senior martial brother Liu still hasn't asked me if I want to marry him. I don't understand though. Do you think he doesn't like me?”

Jing Yi could only smile awkwardly. ”Well, I've never met him …”

Hong Bao's eyes sparkled at that. ”Ah! That's true! Then I'll definitely have to introduce you to him when you see him later! I'm sure you also like him.”

Qiu Ling took out his sword and then pulled Jing Yi onto it. ”Let's stop talking about that. Where is that senior martial brother Liu of yours right now?”
