Chapter 285 The Sequel to "The Witch of the Martial World"
The system's scream rang in my ears, "Aaaaaah, my God, an earthquake!"
Qingyu: “…”
Before Qingyu could say anything, her body seemed to be bound and unable to move. Rong Jinnian instantly moved closer, gazing at Qingyu with infatuation and joy, his burning gaze sending a shiver down her spine—
"Let's make a deal, Qingyu? How about a life-or-death gamble? If you fall in love with me even without your memories, then... you'll be mine, okay?"
Qingyu calmed herself down, and everyone else around her... no, everyone was frozen in place; no one could help her.
But Rong Jinnian was seriously injured, so why would he suddenly come over?
In a flash, Qingyu immediately suppressed all her emotions, her cold eyes fixed on her, her brows furrowed, "What if I hadn't fallen in love with you?"
Rong Jinnian chuckled softly, but his smile carried a hint of madness. "Then there will be no more of us in this world."
Qingyu was startled. Before she could respond, the earth shook violently, and a crack spread out beneath her feet.
Rong Jinnian held Qingyu's hand tightly and leaped towards the crack.
The two fell in an instant, like kites without a string.
During this time, Qingyu finally broke through the restrictions Rong Jinnian had placed on her, then stabbed him with her sword, and then flew back to the ground using her own strength.
This practice took a heavy toll on her, and she returned pale-faced.
Rong Jinnian chased after her as if nothing had happened, but Qingyu could sense that he no longer had the power to harm her.
"If you want to go crazy, go do it yourself. Don't think you can force me to give in like this." Qingyu's cold voice was filled with disgust.
Rong Jinnian looked down at her delicate body, her beautiful face pale, and his heart ached. He closed his eyes and said, "Do you still want to stay in this world? How about we start the bet in the next world?"
He had originally intended to leave with his men, but he hadn't expected Qingyu to be able to use her own power.
Just as Qingyu was about to object, the system trembled and whispered a reminder: "Qingyu, he seems to be acting strangely. You...you shouldn't agree to his proposal, right? I'm afraid he'll go crazy and cause us even more trouble..."
Qingyu lowered her eyes, her long eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, her fair skin as smooth as mutton fat jade in the sunlight, without any particular expression.
At this moment, her mind was in turmoil. After weighing the pros and cons, a trace of sorrow crept onto her brow, making her look pitiful. After a long while, she slowly said, "Okay, I agree to this agreement."
Other matters can only be planned later.
Rong Jinnian's eyes were filled with surprise, and he was about to say something.
Suddenly the surrounding scenery began to become clear, and sounds began to come to her ears. Rong Jinnian in front of her gave her a deep look, and then she fainted.
Qingyu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that Rong Jinnian had already left.
"Qingyu? What's wrong?!" Lin Shiwan exclaimed and rushed over to help Qingyu up.
The beautiful woman leaned against her, her body frail and boneless, her face completely drained of color, a sight that saddened everyone who saw it.
"What just happened, Qingyu? Let's go see a doctor," Guo Xiao suggested worriedly.
They wanted to ask about other things, but they had just felt a momentary daze before Qingyu weakly sat down on the ground.
and……
"Where did this crack in the ground come from?" Hua Wuyi's brows furrowed, and he subconsciously looked at Qingyu, only to see that the latter did not look at him, but instead nodded slightly and looked at the man lying on the ground, saying softly, "I don't know what happened either, suddenly... You should take a good look at him."
After saying that, she coughed softly again, as frail as a willow branch in the wind.
A soft cough escaped from her lips, the sound weak and tinged with restraint, like a feather brushing against the heart, making one involuntarily clench their fist.
Each cough seemed to drain all her strength.
After her cough subsided, she slightly raised her face, her complexion as pale as paper, devoid of any color, and her once luscious lips were now bluish-white.
A few stray strands of hair clung messily to her cheeks as she coughed, making her look even more pitiful, as if a gentle breeze could blow her over, instantly evoking pity in anyone who saw her.
Everyone lost their focus on what had just happened and urged Qingyu to see a doctor.
Only Qingyu gently shook her head, "It's alright, there's no need to see a doctor."
She didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble, since this matter involved Rong Jinnian, and the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
And she had simply overdrawn her strength again; she would recover after a rest.
Upon hearing this, although everyone was puzzled, they did not want to object to Qingyu's words. They simply stayed close to the beauty and were unwilling to move an inch away.
Qingyu struggled to her feet, dusted off her clothes, and glanced at everyone. "Let's not talk about today's events anymore. Everyone, please disperse."
"But..." Lin Shiwan hesitated, sensing that something was amiss.
But looking into Shang Qingyu's clear and bright eyes, he ultimately did not ask any further questions.
Qingyu must have her own reasons, right? It's already a blessing that she can be by his side, why should she ask for more?
If she were to lose it one day, she would probably lose her entire heart and soul.
After Qingyu returned to her residence, the system couldn't help but ask, "Are you really going to honor that bet?"
Qingyu sat in the chair, rubbing her temples. "Let's keep him calm for now and wait until I recover my strength."
It's a pity I can't get in touch with Siyu, otherwise I could ask her about the situation.
In the days that followed, Qingyu improved her own abilities while using these characters in the story to search for the Six Yang Technique.
Whether it was a coincidence or not, the journey was extremely smooth, with little trouble except for the initial bandits.
On the contrary, their reputation as a demonic sect grew better and better, and many people who came from afar wanted to join them.
In response, Hua Wuyi boasted to Qingyu more than once, "The Demonic Sect did do bad things under the leadership of its former leader in the early years, but it has now reformed and turned over a new leaf. Except for its name, everything else has changed."
He wouldn't let Qingyu have a bad reputation.
Upon hearing this, Lin Shinian surprisingly refrained from arguing. Before setting off, Hua Wuyi had dealt with a group of people and returned some items—
Those involved in the massacre of the Lin family, as well as the Lin family's assets.
Lin Shinian didn't know if what he was doing was right or wrong, but after meeting Qingyu, his thoughts became very simple. He just wanted to stay by her side, even if they couldn't love each other, they could still grow old together.
By then, wouldn't that be considered a fulfilling life?
He kept these thoughts to himself until he was very old, and never spoke them aloud.
Qingyu had successfully collected the Six Yang Divine Skill. She didn't practice it immediately, but simply had the system copy it down before resuming her mischievous activities.
She spread the word that the Six Yang Divine Skill was in her possession, but in reality, whenever unscrupulous individuals came to steal it, she gave them a fake version of the Six Yang Divine Skill.
Suddenly, a trend of "eunuchs" and "transvestites" emerged in the martial arts world, with men in the former and women in the latter.
By the time they realized what was happening, it was too late for regrets.
