Chapter 563: The Flirtatious Swordplay
Although Li Mochou had never encountered such an odd custom before, some things were instinctive. Noticing Song Qingshu’s sincere gaze and the hand he extended toward her, her heart skipped unexpectedly, reminding her of the stirring emotions she once felt in her youth.
However, she certainly wasn’t going to take his hand. Instead, she averted her gaze, a touch of shyness in her response: “But… I haven’t learned this sword technique.”
Anyone familiar with Li Mochou would have been shocked to see her acting so coy.
“It’s fine. As long as you know the Jade Maiden Sword Technique,” Song Qingshu replied before turning to Zhang San and Li Si. “You wouldn’t mind if I brought a helper, would you?”
“Go ahead!” Zhang San and Li Si exchanged glances, each reading the other’s thoughts.
This man was too enigmatic, and even the two of them working together couldn’t guarantee victory. However, adding Li Mochou to his side actually improved their odds. After all, Zhang San and Li Si had trained together for years and shared a seamless synergy, achieving results greater than the sum of their parts.
Li Mochou’s skill, on the other hand, was far inferior to theirs, and since it was her first time partnering with Song Qingshu, mistakes were inevitable—opportunities they could exploit.
“We’ll need two swords for a duel,” Song Qingshu mused. Just then, Mu Wanqing offered her sword, her cheeks flushed. “You can use mine.”
“Thank you, Miss.” Song Qingshu’s smile made Mu Wanqing’s heart race. She thought to herself, ‘Hmph, I’ll deal with you after we drive off these foes.’
