Male superiority and female superiority: forced love

Chapter 109: Interlude before the Competition

The grand occasion at the top of Wuliang Peak was unprecedented.

Two figures had already taken up position on the massive, nearly ten thousand square meter oval battle platform. Looking down from the long stone steps, one could not help but feel a suffocating, tense atmosphere.

At this moment, almost all the major sects were present. The sudden appearance of Qi Ruyi and others undoubtedly attracted everyone's attention. Even the two figures who were about to start a battle on the field put down their swords and looked at them one by one.

Many people present had never seen the true appearance of the Drunken Sword God, but the red gourd hanging around his waist inadvertently revealed his identity.

However, their attention did not stay on this supreme strong man for too long. They were all deeply attracted by the graceful woman in white fur coat beside him.

Her hair was a little messy, with a few strands scattered from her forehead and temples. The jade leaf hairpin adorning her head drooped slightly, as if it had fallen off.

The slender figure was tightly wrapped in a thick fur quilt. Standing next to the tall and burly Qi Jianshen, he was only less than a head taller than him. It was not difficult to see how amazing the two long legs hidden under the clothes were.

The woman had a delicate and elegant appearance, just like a snow lotus on an iceberg, isolated and independent from the world.

Under the smooth white forehead, there was a hint of helplessness between the brows, and a pair of bright almond-shaped eyes were wide open, like a lost white deer, which melted the hearts of all the single dogs in the venue.

Qi Ruyi hadn't expected that his disciple's wife's veil was so fragile. He glanced at the two flower-guarding messengers behind him with sullen faces and pulled his beard awkwardly.

In previous years, the Wangxi Sect rarely participated in the martial arts conference, and there were no seats for them at the moment, so Yue Yixing took the lead in extending a hand of friendship.

Because of Lu Zhuoxi, Jiang Wenzhou sat in the organizer's seat. Just as he was about to stand up and invite everyone, a loud voice got there first.

"Sword God Qi, there is still a vacant seat here for this junior. Why don't you come and sit here?"

Qi Ruyi and others looked in the direction of the sound and saw a familiar figure.

"Master Yan, how are you?" He looked towards the Xuantian Sect's table. There were many more empty seats than at Lingxiao Temple, and the view was wider. After a moment's contemplation, he smiled and said to Yue Yixing, "I thank Master Yue for your kindness, but your seats are already limited. I'd rather take them to the Xuantian Sect's table."

The disciples of Xuantian Sect were excited.

Jinshan, Chi Youliang, Wu Fei and others excitedly came forward and surrounded Ruan Chuyin, greeting her excitedly. Various fruits and hot tea were handed to her continuously, which completely detracted from the tense atmosphere that should have been present at the martial arts conference.

Qin Guanzhi silently stared at his wife's table full of delicious food and the empty table in front of him. He felt his breathing become a little difficult. He turned to look at Yan Shanting and asked, "Brother Yan, this is also the first time for your Xuantian Sect to participate in the martial arts conference, right? Why are there so many seats?"

This question also revealed the doubts in Xiang Yunchi and Qi Ruyi's minds. Xuantian Sect had more seats than Lingxiao Temple.

Yan Shanting offered them some hot tea and said, "Originally, there wasn't any, but because we arrived early, the organizers reserved a space for us. When I reported the number of people, I thought you might come, so I over-counted."

It turned out to be the case.

Qi Ruyi nodded with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Sect Master Yan is so thoughtful and meticulous, which is rare at your age. Thank you for your help." He looked at the young man in front of him with admiration. This state of mind was truly worthy of the Xuantian Sect's Sect Master.

When they finished chatting, they found that everything around them was quiet and everyone's eyes were focused on them.

King Lu Zhuoxi of Yixiang sat in his high seat, his eyes fixed on the white figure, unable to contain his excitement. After a month, they finally met again. This time, he would not let her leave Beiyue so easily.

Jiang Wenzhou fell into endless contemplation and did not notice Lu Xizhi's abnormality, but he caught the fleeting heat in Yan Shanting's eyes.

It seemed that more and more heroes were gathering around Ruan Chuyin, causing him to feel inexplicably restless.

This feeling of being out of control drove him mad, yet he also resisted it. Thinking of the supreme throne he had been meticulously planning for for years, his heart suddenly began to churn violently.

Ruan Chuyin accepted the various "kindness" offered by her friends from Xuantian Sect with horror, and she almost stuttered when she said the word "thank you".

She doesn't like being the center of too much attention, which will undoubtedly exacerbate her social anxiety.

All the eyes fell on her, making her feel like she was about to die on the spot.

Especially the burning gaze that had been following her since she sat down, making her feel very uncomfortable.

Searching secretly, they accidentally met, allowing Ruan Chuyin to see the man's face clearly.

He had a stocky build, a sharp face, and dark eyes that shone like a soaring eagle, radiating an air of dominance. However, his bushy beard accentuated his rugged features, making Ruan Chuyin unsure of his age.

This person's appearance violated all her aesthetic standards, and every time she looked at him, she would feel scared.

What made her angry was that no matter how many times she hinted in that direction, and even deliberately confronted him and warned him several times, the man still locked onto her wantonly without any hesitation.

Ruan Chuyin couldn't help but roll her eyes at the man, but it only caused him to chuckle.

Yes, it was a chuckle, because she noticed the slightly rising and falling chest and the curve in the corners of his eyes.

"Hey, are you here to participate in the competition too?"

A delicate female voice instantly changed the atmosphere in the venue.

"It's Bai Jinmo, the goddess of the Sha League." A young man in green clothes was talking to his friends.

"Who is she talking to?"

"I don't know, but judging from the direction, it seems to be Xuantian Sect."

"Are you so disrespectful to Yan Shanting? You are worthy of being the female devil of the Sha League."

"What female devil? That's a goddess. Don't you see how sexy she is?"

"Keep your voice down, or she might get angry with you if she hears it."

Ruan Chuyin looked up and saw a red plum blossom among the many green leaves.

The woman was not tall, had dark skin, and had very three-dimensional facial features. Unlike Cai Lei and the others who were beautiful and gentle, she had a slightly exotic charm that was eye-catching.

She was dressed very coolly. She stood in the cold wind without any fur blankets. She wore a strapless dress, a flowing, thin, bright red skirt that revealed her two beautiful legs.

The most attractive thing is the two half-exposed towering peaks on her chest, which make people's blood boil and their hearts excited.

She pulled her eyes back and took a sip of hot tea. The blush on her face hadn't yet faded when she heard the girl say, "Lady in white fur, I'm asking you! Are you here to compete as well?" Bai Jinmo rarely saw women participating in martial arts conferences, so how could she miss this opportunity?

"Me...me?" Ruan Chuyin was stunned for a moment, pointed at herself, and then quickly shook her head and said, "I don't know martial arts."

Qin Guanzhi looked at the dark-skinned woman with a gloomy gaze, immediately moved his desk next to Ruan Chuyin's desk, and sat over.

Xiang Yunchi, a frequent participant in martial arts tournaments, was no stranger to Bai Jinmo. All of the top-ranked mercenaries in the Sha League were her protégés. Furthermore, she had set her sights on his third brother, Gou Munan, leader of the Lie League. Unfortunately, his third brother was a bit of a straight man, and his attempts at seduction were unsuccessful.

With this in mind, he immediately looked around the entire audience. He didn't see the third brother but saw the eldest brother Wei Shizhang.

"Why are you here if you don't know martial arts?" Bai Jinmo was angry. She finally found a fellow of the same sex and thought it would be a chance to spar with him, but he turned out to be just a spectator!

"I'm here to cheer for my husband." Ruan Chuyin felt a little embarrassed. It was only after Xiang Yunchi told her that most of the people going to the martial arts conference were just there to join in the fun that she felt at ease to follow him. She then looked at Xiang Yunchi.

Xiang Yunchi immediately moved the table to the other side of Ruan Chuyin and said to Bai Jinmo with a sullen look on his face, "Can't my wife come and cheer me on? You're being so nosy! If you want to fight, I'll grant you that."

"Yun Chi, you're not really going to fight her, are you?" Ruan Chuyin was nervous. She and that girl were the only two women in the room. What if Yun Chi fought her and someone accused her of bullying a woman?

"Hatsune, don't worry. I will definitely leave her with a breath of life. She won't die." Xiang Yunchi had wanted to teach her a lesson for a long time. This gossipy woman had tricked Gou Munan eight times, causing his third brother to have a psychological trauma whenever he saw a woman.

Bai Jinmo was so angry that her features were flying, but she really loved Gou Munan! Xiang Yunchi was his younger brother, so she had no choice but to endure it.

"I am a generous lady and will not argue with you. But you, on the other hand, I never expected to sit with Wang Xizong. Is your wife also a disciple of Wang Xizong?"

Ruan Chuyin felt she needed to explain herself, so she raised her right hand and pointed at Qin Guanzhi, saying, "This is also my husband. He is from the Wangxi Sect."

Bai Jinmo's expression paused, and then she burst into laughter.

"Xiang Yunchi, you actually share a wife with someone else?"

Everyone's eyes widened upon hearing this. They knew the Underworld Palace Master's temperament all too well, and whispers rose and fell.

Xiang Yunchi's face was darkening rapidly, and the dagger in his sleeve was ready to move.

The moment the sword was unsheathed, Qi Ruyi stood up and said in a resounding voice, "What's wrong with my disciple and Mr. Xiang marrying the same woman? What's wrong with me and Mr. Xiang sitting at the same table? My disciple's wife is always the center of attention wherever she goes. It's not too much for her to marry any number of men. My friend, do you understand?"

The whole audience fell silent.

Xiang Yunchi, Qin Guanzhi and Ruan Chuyin suddenly turned their heads towards him when they heard the last sentence, and the expressions on their faces were extremely interesting.

Bai Jinmo was a little unsure of this person's identity and was about to explode when a big hand pushed her back to her seat.

A middle-aged man in a black robe stood up and clasped his fists, saying, "I am Xue Yifang, leader of the Sha League. Nice to meet the Drunken Sword God. I apologize for my ignorance. I hope the Sword God will not take it to heart."

Qi Ruyi waved his hand and said, "Alliance Leader Xue, you are too polite. These are just trivial matters, not worth getting angry about. It's alright."

"Thank you, Sword God."

After Xue Yifang sat down, he sternly warned Bai Jinmo. The number one in the world was not someone they could afford to offend.

Bai Jinmo was already stunned. What had she done? Ridiculing his disciple's wife in front of that legendary figure? She immediately fell silent, quietly reducing her presence to a minimum.

The place was completely silent. Everyone suppressed their curiosity and kept their mouths shut, not daring to say much.

Seeing the atmosphere gradually calm down, the emcee cleared his throat and shouted, "Next, the competition continues. First match: Xingchen Palace vs. Cangyu Palace."
