An Appointment to Duel: Qian Renxue Wants to Go Easy and Date Jin Lingfeng

A hint of imperceptible joy flashed in Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes, and the corners of her red lips curled into a slight arc as she softly commanded:

"Come in!"

The next moment, the door slowly opened, and a young man in a black, tight-fitting outfit walked in.

Bibi Dong looked at Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo and said coldly:

"Elder Chrysanthemum, Elder Ghost, we'll discuss other matters tomorrow. I have important things to discuss with the Holy Son."

"As you command, Pope. We shall take our leave!"

Moon Guan and Ghost Shadow exchanged complex glances. Then, looking at Jin Lingfeng beside them, they said:

"Greetings, Holy Son!"

Following that, the two turned and quickly left the Papal Palace, not daring to linger for another moment. The door closed heavily behind them.

After they departed, Jin Lingfeng eagerly hurried towards the front, calling out sweetly:

"Sister Dong'er!"

Then, he approached Bibi Dong, crouched down, and gently massaged her legs, which were wrapped in flesh-colored stockings. His touch was light and heavy, controlled to the degree that made Bibi Dong most comfortable.

The cold expression on Bibi Dong's face instantly vanished, replaced by a gentle smile. She took a deep breath, feeling incredibly comfortable and relaxed. She poked the young man's head with her finger and asked:

"Feng'er, why have you come to see me so suddenly today? And you're being so attentive. Have you encountered some difficulty and need my help?"

Jin Lingfeng continued to rhythmically massage Bibi Dong's legs, pressing gently, and said with a grin:

"No, Sister Dong'er."

"I received news that Xue'er will be returning to Martial Soul City tonight."

"The day after tomorrow is her 7th birthday. I'll be celebrating with Xue'er then, and I hope you can come too..."

Unexpectedly, the smile on Bibi Dong's lips vanished instantly, replaced by a deep sadness. She sighed:

"Feng'er, please don't mention it again. I absolutely will not go to Xue'er's birthday, and Xue'er doesn't want to see me..."

"I still have matters to attend to. You should go back now..."

As Bibi Dong spoke, she leaned her right hand on the Pope's throne, supporting her head and closing her eyes slightly. A trace of sorrow appeared on her face.

Seeing her like this, Jin Lingfeng could only swallow the words he was about to say. He got up with a hint of regret and left the Papal Palace.

The moment he turned away, Bibi Dong opened her eyes. Looking at the young man's dejected figure, she thought with a touch of reluctance:

"Feng'er, since you're so keen on helping me and Xue'er reconcile, I'll go the day after tomorrow."

"I hope Xue'er won't be too angry or disappointed to see me..."

Night fell, the stars twinkling brilliantly and dazzlingly.

In the courtyard, a young man in a black, tight-fitting outfit, with a handsome appearance, was strolling by the pond. He looked at the lotus flowers blooming in the water, a faint sadness on his face.

"The day after tomorrow is Xue'er's birthday, but Bibi Dong refuses to show up. What a shame."

Jin Lingfeng sighed helplessly, picked up a small stone, and threw it towards the water's surface, creating ripples.

Suddenly, a small golden orb of light appeared in the dark sky, rapidly approaching.

Jin Lingfeng's gaze sharpened, and then a smile of excitement and joy spread across his lips. It was Qian Renxue, coming from the main hall.

Now, she was enveloped in golden Soul Power, with two exquisite wings condensed behind her. Bathed in golden light, she resembled a noble deity, exuding an extremely powerful aura.

"Xue'er, you're finally back."

"I've missed you so much during this past month."

Jin Lingfeng smiled joyfully, waving his arms and shouting loudly.

After a while, two "click-clack" sounds were heard as the high heels of the young girl Qian Renxue touched the ground. She arrived in front of Jin Lingfeng.

Qian Renxue had gone to the Star Dou Great Forest to obtain a Soul Ring. With her 20-level Innate Soul Power, she had immediately possessed 20-level Soul Power upon awakening her Martial Soul. After absorbing two Soul Rings, her Soul Power had soared to level 25.

Moreover, during the past month she was away, Qian Renxue found that she couldn't stop thinking about Jin Lingfeng, the person she used to detest the most in Martial Soul City. She missed him and only wanted to obtain her Soul Ring quickly and return to see him.

Because they had made a pact: if Jin Lingfeng could still defeat her after she obtained her Soul Ring, he would be given a chance to pursue her. Qian Renxue found herself looking forward to it, but her proud nature naturally prevented her from showing it.

"Hmph, you smooth-talking guy."

"While I was gone, who knows who else you've been flirting with."

Qian Renxue missed the person in front of her dearly, but she still spoke words of provocation against her true feelings.

A hint of nervousness was hidden in her eyes as she stared at Jin Lingfeng, not wanting to miss any change in his expression. She secretly worried if he might have fallen for someone else just because she had been away for a while...

Jin Lingfeng looked into Qian Renxue's eyes and said sincerely:

"Xue'er, what are you saying? The person I love is you, so why would I like anyone else?"

"Let alone you being gone for just over a month, even if you were gone for a year, or ten years, I would still be here, silently waiting for your return."

He spoke passionately and instinctively reached out to hold Qian Renxue's hand, but she dodged. He could only scratch his head awkwardly.

Qian Renxue felt a flutter of joy in her heart. After all, who wouldn't want to hear such sweet words from a guy they liked?

But her pride got the better of her, and her expression remained slightly cold as she said indifferently:

"Hmph, a man's mouth is full of lies. I won't believe a word you say."

"Come on, Jin Lingfeng, I already have two Soul Rings and my Soul Power is level 25."

"If you can still defeat me now, I'll give you a chance to pursue me!"

As Qian Renxue spoke, her cheeks flushed slightly. She decided not to use her second Soul Skill, Angel Wings, to go easy on him. If she flew into the air, Jin Lingfeng would have no chance of winning against her...

However, Jin Lingfeng was still upset about Bibi Dong and hadn't recovered his mood.

He shook his head and said bitterly:

"Xue'er, I'm very sorry. I'm not in a good mood today. How about we fight tomorrow?"

"My Soul Power is level 10 now. I'll definitely be able to defeat you tomorrow..."

Jin Lingfeng's sincere words made Qian Renxue grit her teeth in anger.

"Jin Lingfeng, you scoundrel, you're making me furious!"

"To have this duel with you, I stayed in the Star Dou Great Forest for over a month."

"Today, I've finally returned, and you're telling me you're in a bad mood!"

"I think you're in a bad mood just because you saw me. You're such a hypocrite, and you say you like me? Bah!"

"Hmph, since you don't want to fight me, I'll fight you whether you like it or not!"

"First Soul Skill, Angel Assault!"

Qian Renxue bit her lip tightly, glaring fiercely at the detestable guy in front of her. She summoned golden light in her right hand and threw a punch.

She didn't want to do this, but she couldn't control herself. It was rare for Qian Renxue to face her feelings, and she wanted to go easy on Jin Lingfeng to give him a chance to pursue her. She never expected to be rejected. How could someone as proud as her tolerate such humiliation?

However, after throwing this punch, Qian Renxue regretted it. Her Soul Power was a high level 25, and her first Soul Ring was over 410 years old, making its power extremely potent. What if Jin Lingfeng couldn't withstand it and got injured?

The next moment, just as Qian Renxue's fist was about to hit Jin Lingfeng's chest, he finally moved!

A purple thousand-year Soul Ring appeared beneath his feet, causing his strength to surge. He reached out his palm to meet Qian Renxue's punch, dissolving the power of her Soul Skill with overwhelming force.

Qian Renxue lost her balance and was sent crashing heavily towards the ground. Jin Lingfeng reacted in time, wrapping his arms around the girl's waist with a playful smile:

"Xue'er, you lost. From now on, I can openly pursue you..."
