~7 min read 1,287 words

Seeing Li Shiqing's soul-bewitching smile, Zhao Yunfei couldn't help but swallow his saliva: "Very beautiful!" Although Li Shiqing's figure was far from as perfect as Zhao Qingxue's, her looks were absolutely top-tier beauty. Even Zhao Yunfei could not resist the temptation.

"Since that's the case, are you willing to marry me?" Li Shiqing said directly. She was already prepared; whether Zhao Yunfei agreed or not, she intended to force her way.

"This..." Zhao Yunfei was stunned at once. He had originally thought to refuse, but hearing Li Shiqing's words, he could no longer refuse.

Zhao Yunfei was not a fool; of course he understood what this meant. If he disagreed, Li Shiqing would definitely not let it go. Moreover, he dared not guarantee that Li Shiqing would not kill him. So, the best course now was to delay time until the Zhao family sent someone to rescue him. By then, even if Li Shiqing wanted to kill him, she might not succeed. After all, the Zhao family's power was too vast; even the Li family dared not oppose the Zhao family.

"How about it? Are you willing to marry me?" Li Shiqing looked at Zhao Yunfei and asked with a smile.

"I am willing." Zhao Yunfei gritted his teeth and said. Although somewhat reluctant, he still chose to submit. Now he could only delay time until the Zhao family sent experts to deal with Li Shiqing, only then could he escape safely. By then, there would be no need to worry so much.

"Remember the words you spoke today. I have given my chastity to you; do not betray me." Li Shiqing showed a satisfied smile. She took out a pill and stuffed it into Zhao Yunfei's mouth. Then she vanished with Zhao Yunfei.

"Ah~" Zhao Yunfei let out a cry of agony. He felt unbearable pain throughout his body, wishing to die immediately.

He struggled desperately, but his body could not move. Moreover, he felt a trace of icy breath flowing from his body to his limbs and bones, and his pain diminished accordingly.

"What poison is this?" Zhao Yunfei looked at Li Shiqing in shock.

"This is Bone-Eroding Pill. After you take it, you will suffer bone-devouring pain every day unless the Bone-Eroding Pill is removed. Otherwise, you can only suffer, and there will never be a good chance to return to normal." Li Shiqing looked at Zhao Yunfei with a smile and said: "If you are willing to cooperate quietly with our Li family's plan, then I can consider helping you detoxify."

"Hmph! Wanting me to betray my family is sheer wishful thinking!" Zhao Yunfei snorted coldly.

"Since that is so, I have no choice. But rest assured, after I finish dealing with Zhao Qingxue, I will definitely come for you." Li Shiqing giggled.

"You... you are not keeping your word!" Zhao Yunfei stared angrily at Li Shiqing, his fists clenched until they cracked.

"Young Master Zhao, do not blame me. You forced me." Li Shiqing said coldly.

While Li Shiqing was speaking, Zhao Qingxue arrived outside the Drunken Immortal Tower. She looked inside but did not see Zhao Yunfei's figure, so she frowned.

"Could that person have already left?" Zhao Qingxue thought silently.

However, she did not relax her vigilance but continued to observe the Drunken Immortal Tower. She believed Zhao Yunfei would surely come to the Drunken Immortal Tower to drink, because Zhao Yunfei loved indulging in wine and women the most. Her purpose in waiting here was to catch Zhao Yunfei red-handed, leaving him nowhere to hide.

Sure enough, Zhao Yunfei walked out from inside the Drunken Immortal Tower.

"Young Master Zhao, you have finally come out; this humble one has been waiting for you for a long time." Li Shiqing said lightly with a smile.

Seeing Li Shiqing's expression, Zhao Qingxue guessed that Zhao Yunfei must have fallen into the trap. She rushed into the Drunken Immortal Tower, wanting to stop Zhao Yunfei. But she was too late.

"Young Master Zhao, let us have a few cups." Li Shiqing wrapped her arm around Zhao Yunfei's arm and said softly, as if her bones were nonexistent.

"No need, I have no time now." Zhao Yunfei shook his head. Where did he have the mind to drink now? He only wanted to leave here quickly. He knew Li Shiqing had already become suspicious; if he stayed longer, he would be in danger.

"Young Master Zhao, I advise you not to run. This will only make you suffer more." Li Shiqing said coldly.

"Hmph!" Zhao Yunfei shook off Li Shiqing's arm and galloped toward another path. However, he had not run a few steps before he fell to the ground.

"Thump, thump~" Zhao Yunfei rolled and crawled forward, trying to get as far away from Li Shiqing as possible to avoid disaster. However, Li Shiqing did not give up on him. She quickly caught up, then blocked Zhao Yunfei's path, sneering: "Zhao Yunfei, today you cannot escape. You might as well surrender."

Zhao Yunfei's face was pale, his body trembling. He knew today he faced great danger. However, he would rather be killed than submit to Li Shiqing.

"Zhao Yunfei, do you really not wish to surrender?" Li Shiqing saw Zhao Yunfei's state and sighed, saying: "It seems you are determined to seek death. Since you are stubborn, I will grant your wish."

Li Shiqing drew the soft sword from her waist and thrust it toward Zhao Yunfei.

"Do not hurt him." Zhao Qingxue quickly stopped her.

"Miss Zhao, our previous agreement has not yet been fulfilled; do you want to go back on your word?" Li Shiqing saw Zhao Qingxue, her eyes flickering. She had noticed long ago that Zhao Qingxue and Zhao Yunfei had a very close relationship.

"I am afraid he will hurt you. He is a waste; if you spend a night of spring with a waste, do you not feel dirty?" Zhao Qingxue said disdainfully.

Li Shiqing smiled faintly: "Miss Zhao, you are wrong. Young Master Zhao and I have mutual affection. He is not a waste; you may insult him, but you cannot slander him. Such things, I do not allow."

"Hmph! I think you two are the dog couple." Zhao Qingxue scolded without hesitation.

Li Shiqing's pretty face darkened, cold light flashing in her eyes: "Miss Zhao, please watch your words."

"Do you still want to fight me? Let me tell you, just that one sentence of yours just now is enough for me to kill you once." Zhao Qingxue said proudly.

"Then I will wait and see." Li Shiqing said coldly.

"I advise you not to fight; otherwise you will regret it." Zhao Qingxue said.

Li Shiqing's eyes brightened; she knew her charm, and Zhao Yunfei, upon seeing her, was probably already deeply immersed and unwilling to be her enemy.

She smiled slightly: "Then let us try."

While Zhao Qingxue spoke, she attacked Li Shiqing. Zhao Yunfei and Li Shiqeng fought together. However, their martial arts were evenly matched, and for a time neither could gain the upper hand.

Li Shiqing suddenly cried out softly, then used a move called "Jade Rabbit Jumps Over the Wall," dodging Zhao Qingxue's spear.

Zhao Qingxue's heart tightened; she clearly felt that Li Shiqing had become much stronger.

However, she still had confidence to defeat Li Shiqing.

Zhao Qingxue lightly turned her wrist, swept the spear, and thrust toward Li Shiqing's chest.

Li Shiqing extended her left hand, grabbed Zhao Qingxue's spear, then followed the spear and thrust toward Zhao Qingxue.

Zhao Qingxue quickly sidestepped to avoid it, while kicking Li Shiqing's abdomen with her right foot.

Li Shiqing's speed was very fast; she easily avoided Zhao Qingxue's attack.
