Growing Up (2)
Once he said those words, Ye Mu hadn’t even said anything, but those around her were already wailing and causing a ruckus!
“Agree to his proposal! Marry him!”
“Don’t hesitate anymore! Just marry him!”
“Fine, let’s bet on that!”
Ye Mu felt a headache develop. Regardless of what she said, people in the back continuously pushed her up onto the stage. Right then, Mo Linyuan threw a dagger and a sack of white powder.
“This powder will leave a white mark on the body wherever it touches. Whoever strikes a lethal spot first will be declared the winner!”
Ye Mu squeezed the dagger. Although she hasn’t fought for many years now, she still had her previous experiences with fighting.
Now that she was forced into this situation, she will not back down!
Mo Linyuan laughed softly, “Here I come.”
After the warning, his body approached in a monster-like manner!
Even though he wasn’t using any internal force, Mo Linyuan’s speed far exceeded that of a normal person. Ye Mu realized then she would have to put in all of her concentration in this fight!
BANG!
With a crash, Ye Mu blocked Mo Linyuan’s high-speed attack. The dagger in her hand suddenly snapped into two!
Luckily, the dagger in Mo Linyuan’s hand also broke. However, it didn’t matter as the broken dagger could still leave conspicuous white marks on the opponent.
The two of them were extremely agile as they exchanged blows. The people below felt it was truly a sight to behold. Someone then murmured in apprehension,
“Miss Ye is truly unromantic and insensitive. If it was me, I would have pretended to lose to His Majesty. That way, I would be able to marry him!”
A guy nearby also snorted, “Perhaps Miss Ye doesn’t like His Majesty?”
“Nonsense!” Another person humphed, “Miss Ye is the model of romance. She has never left His Majesty’s side even once! How could she possibly not like him? It must be because she is still young!”
On the battleground, all of Mo Linyuan’s attacks were blocked. He was becoming a bit discouraged. Even though she wasn’t using any internal forces, Ye Mu’s reaction ability was still faster than him. With this kind of advantage, it would be fairly difficult for him to win.
“Little Mu’er, do you not want to marry me that much?” He approached Ye Mu’s ear for a split second to whisper this sentence. His subtle hurt expression was visible.
Ye Mu’s ears were red. Yet, before she could reply, she realized Mo Linyuan must have been deliberately trying to distract her!
Indeed it was as she predicted, Mo Linyuan was trying to distract her.
Seeing how Ye Mu had been fooled, he lowered his voice again to murmur,
“… But, I look forward to this day. For many years I have been longing for the day when you are completely mine…”
“You brute!” Ye Mu’s face burned red. She was still a shy young girl.
Since this type of beast didn’t deserve any mercy, Ye Mu suddenly took a swift offensive mode towards Mo Linyuan. Her advances forced him to the edge of the stage!
She then noticed the sides of the stage had rows of weaponry placed around. Ye Mu originally wanted to change orientation.
Unfortunately, Mo Linyuan took advantage of this and engulfed her in a tight hold, not letting her go.
When she finally broke free of Mo Linyuan’s hold, she tried to retaliate.
As a result, to avoid her attack, Mo Linyuan retreated one step. Consequently, his back headed towards the weaponry below. What’s more, he didn’t seem to have any awareness of this!
Ye Mu became worried.
She advanced forward to seize his waist and bring him back onto the stage. At this moment, they were stuck closely to each other.
Once the two of them landed safely on solid ground, Mo Linyuan smugly declared,
“Little Mu’er… you’ve lost.”
