Lu Li, You're Ruthless!

"No, is this woman that rich?"

"Five million?"

"How many zeros is that..."

"You don't need that much, the full payment is three million three hundred thousand Spirit Crystals," the long-legged beauty said with a professional smile.

Lu Li nodded. "Exchange the rest for equivalent treasures for me."

Ye Qiu's throat felt dry.

The long-legged beauty asked, "Do you have any specific requests?"

Lu Li glanced at Ye Qiu. "Body Refining materials will do."

The long-legged beauty immediately got to work.

Fifteen minutes later, Lu Li and Ye Qiu walked out of the Star Pavilion.

Ye Qiu said, "I won't accept it."

Lu Li replied, "I didn't say it was for you."

Ye Qiu: "..."

The two walked towards the Academy. Upon reaching the Academy's entrance, Ye Qiu took a deep breath. He caught up to Lu Li and said, "We need to talk properly."

Lu Li stopped. "Go ahead."

Ye Qiu said, "Miss Lu, you are so outstanding and beautiful. I imagine you have many, many suitors?"

Lu Li said softly, "Countless."

Ye Qiu continued, "Since so many people are pursuing you and willing to be your lapdogs, why are you fixated on me?"

"You are my fiancé, it was personally decided by Aunt Wen."

Ye Qiu protested, "My mother is gone now. This engagement... it was just a joke back then, you don't have to take it seriously!"

Lu Li shook her head. "We have a written agreement, with both our fingerprints on it."

As she spoke, she directly took out a marriage contract and unrolled it.

Ye Qiu fell silent. He had already torn up his copy.

Lu Li added, "Besides, you also said that if I defeated you, you would acknowledge this engagement."

Ye Qiu opened his mouth, speechless.

Lu Li elaborated, "I defeated you three times."

Ye Qiu: "..."

Back then, he had seen her as just a young girl, delicate and fair-skinned, and had indeed spoken boastfully.

He had even declared that he only needed one hand...

The result? Hmph, what a slap in the face!

He took a deep breath and said seriously, "Honestly, the reason I'm doing this is for your own good.

As you know, I'm just a playboy, I like visiting brothels. I've been too many times over the years.

To be honest, I'm a little embarrassed... I'm actually sick, I'm not very capable in that regard anymore..."

Lu Li said softly, "It's okay, my teacher knows an alchemist, and I know one too. As long as it's not broken, it's fine!"

Ye Qiu's face darkened. "Tell me, what exactly do you want from me? Explain it clearly, and I'll change my ways!"

Lu Li looked at him. "You're handsome and have a good figure!"

Ye Qiu slapped himself twice. Why do I have to have such a handsome face!

Damn it!

"A bet is a bet. If you're a man, you should honor your word!" Lu Li added.

Then, she stepped closer to Ye Qiu. "Or is it that I'm not pretty enough? Not attractive to you at all?"

Just as Ye Qiu was about to nod, Lu Li took another step forward. They could hear each other's breathing.

Lu Li's softness pressed against Ye Qiu's chest.

Ye Qiu took a step back.

Lu Li moved forward again.

Ye Qiu: "..."

Looking at her face so close, smelling the fragrance of the young woman, he found he couldn't say the words.

The most beautiful woman on the beauty rankings, wasn't she attractive enough?

His instinctive reaction.

Lu Li sensed it...

Ye Qiu retreated again.

Lu Li's lips curled slightly, but before the smile could fully form, it vanished, replaced by his usual cool demeanor.

"Or is it simply because you can't beat me, and you're too afraid to face me, so you choose to run away?"

Under the setting sun, the young man's face flushed with anger. "Me, run away? Why don't you go ask around, I, Ye the Madman, crawled out of a pile of corpses..."

But after saying that, he hurriedly rushed into the Academy.

Lu Li watched the retreating figure, chuckling softly. It seemed he had found Ye Qiu's weakness.

Inside the Academy, Ye Qiu walked quickly, but no matter how fast he went, Lu Li could keep pace with him, walking side-by-side.

Mastering an Artistic Conception was truly terrifying; it allowed for an incredibly meticulous level of self-control.

Anything learned would be exceptionally fast, be it movement techniques, Fist Techniques, or sword techniques...

Along the way, many disciples within the Academy were shocked.

After all, Lu Li's reputation was immense, known to everyone.

However, Lu Li was famously a cold beauty.

Many pursued her, but none had ever managed to get within three feet of her.

Not even the geniuses from the great Noble Families could.

In fact, Lu Li had even drawn her sword and crippled a few of them.

But now, a man was walking beside her.

No, It wasn't that she was walking beside him; rather, she was actively following the man.

When the man dodged, she would move closer.

It was as if she were pursuing him...

"My god, Senior Sister Lu Li is actually pursuing that young man?"

"It's over, my dreams!"

"The senior brothers will probably have their hearts shattered when they hear about this!"

"Looks like Senior Sister Lu Li is also a looks-lover... I knew it!"

They reached the foot of the mountain as the sky began to darken. Ye Qiu rushed up the peak in one go, with Lu Li close behind.

Nan Qingyue was not present.

Lu Li said, "I know what you're thinking. I promise I'll use my hands less from now on."

Ye Qiu shot her a sideways glance.

She added, "If I really can't help but want to hit you, I'll try to go easy on you."

Ye Qiu gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

His eyes were red.

Woman, you're humiliating me!

"Like you used to hit me when I was little, go a little easy, okay?"

Ye Qiu: "..."

Case closed!

She was clearly getting revenge!

You tormented me once, and now you want to torment me for a lifetime, is that it?

"You also said that if you're not as skilled, you should learn to be obedient, and stand at attention when getting beaten!"

Ye Qiu let out a long sigh!

Fine, fine, fine.
