Chapter 289 - 197: Missions and Arch-Enemies
As Lin Yue’s friend, Qin Qing didn’t want their relationship to reach the point where it was a matter of life and death because of some issue. Therefore, at this crucial juncture, she wanted to persuade Lin Yue to give up on Li Yi. If that didn’t work, then to withdraw from the mission and leave Tianchang City. Although this would mean losing future prospects, at least her life would be spared.
After all, in her eyes, even with Lin Yue’s help, Li Yi was still facing certain death today.
No one knew Yang Yilong’s strength better than she did.
Ordinary masters of Spiritual Perception would be slain by Yang Yilong in a single encounter, let alone Li Yi, a cultivator at the inspiration realm.
"Qin Qing, I’m happy that you can say such things, at least you still consider me a friend. But do you know? Li Yi and I have known each other since we were young. His father guided me in cultivation, and I introduced him to it... He has been very good to me, not only teaching me boxing techniques but also lending me the Mysterious Object Cultivation Room for my use. It is because of this that I was able to become a master of Spiritual Perception," said Lin Yue. Her smile faded as she spoke earnestly, "Now you’re asking me to give up on Li Yi at this time? What kind of person would that make me, Lin Yue? If you help Yang Yilong and act against Li Yi, I guarantee, I will personally take you down, even if you are my friend."
As she spoke, a murderous glint shone from her eyes.
Qin Qing’s expression turned cold as well, "If you refuse to back down, Li Yi is as good as dead today. You can’t protect him, and if you get involved as well, then for the sake of Yang Yilong, I will personally take you on."
"Fine, very well, then we’ll see who wins and who loses," said Lin Yue.
"You’re no match for me. After Li Yi taught Yang Yilong boxing techniques, it was as if he had taught me as well," Qin Qing said, revealing her own boxing skills in hopes that Lin Yue would back down.
But Lin Yue remained unmoved, "Whether I can beat you or not, we won’t know until after we’ve fought," she said.
She knew well that the boxing skills Li Yi had taught Yang Yilong were incomplete, flawed, while her own were complete. If it really came to a fight, she had the advantage in terms of boxing skills.
