"That was because I was worried that Brother Song would be in danger because of my revenge. Now that I'm doing it myself, I don't need his help. I'm not breaking my promise." Xia Qingqing picked up the Golden Snake Sword and pointed it at Dongfang Muxue. "Dongfang Muxue, die!"
Dongfang Muxue looked at her with a faint smile. "You're no match for me without Song Qingshu's help."
Xia Qingqing's breathing quickened. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll just die."
"Miss Xia, there's something that I don't know if I should say." Indigo Phoenix walked over after tidying up her clothes.
"Just say it." Xia Qingqing never had a good impression of the women from Five Poison Sect, not to mention that she was Invincible East's subordinate. She had even shamelessly posed like that to seduce Song Qingshu, so it would be strange if she was polite.
Indigo Phoenix did not mind. Her voice was still as charming as usual. "Although you used to be Mrs. Yuan, you're Prince Song's woman now. Master is also Prince Song's woman. You're sisters, but you want to kill each other for another man. How embarrassing is that for Prince Song?"
Xia Qingqing was startled when she heard this. Yes, she was already Song QingShu's woman, but all these years, she had always been thinking about her ex-husband. Fortunately, he was magnanimous. If it was any other man, he would probably have exploded. Even so, he probably had a grudge in his heart.
"Brother Song, I … I didn't mean it that way …" Xia Qingqing tried to explain but she did not know how to explain.
Song QingShu patted her shoulder and comforted her, "Even though it's a little unpleasant from an ordinary man's point of view, I admire you more. I admire your sincerity, and I admire your unwavering devotion to love. If you think about it from another perspective, if I die in the future, you'll take revenge for me like this. My dissatisfaction would have disappeared … "
Xia Qingqing quickly pressed her hand on his lips. "Brother Song, don't say such unlucky things."
Dongfang Muxue sneered. "The strong have good luck. With Brother Song's current cultivation, no one in the world can hurt him. He's not like that unlucky Yuan Chengzhi."
"What did you say?!" Xia Qingqing's eyebrows immediately rose as she glared at her.
"This Jianghu has always been a place where the strong prey on the weak. How many people have died in Yuan Chengzhi's hands? He could kill others, but others couldn't kill him? If he dies on Mount Tai, he can only blame himself for being inferior. "Dongfang Muxue said coldly.
Song Qingshu immediately felt a headache coming on. The atmosphere had clearly turned for the better just now, but she had suddenly said all this. Wasn't she purposely provoking Xia Qingqing and adding fuel to the fire?
"I'm going to kill you!" Xia Qingqing could no longer hold back. She swatted away Song Qingshu's hand and stabbed toward Dongfang Muxue.
Dongfang Muxue dodged in a flash and appeared behind Xia Qingqing, aiming for the back of her head.
Xia Qingqing's feet moved, and she dodged at a mysterious angle.
Dongfang Muxue's attack missed and she couldn't help but exclaim softly, "Not bad, looks like Little Brat Song has been working hard on you." After saying that, she glanced at Song Qingshu with a faint smile. She naturally knew that Song Qingshu's Delightful Zen Technique could not only improve his own skills, but it was also very beneficial to women.
Song Qingshu was having a headache. These two women were fighting like chickens and dogs, and he really didn't know how to resolve this enmity.
"Shut up!" Xia Qingqing wished that there was a hole in the ground to hide in, and she waved her Golden Snake Sword even more frantically.
Dongfang Muxue leisurely dodged her attacks while looking for an opening. "Although the Technique of Interchangeability is magical, even Feng Qingyang and Yuan Chengzhi couldn't avoid me when they used it. Do you think a girl like you can?"
Hearing her words, Xia Qingqing's heart skipped a beat, and her movements slowed down slightly. However, this opening was enough for Dongfang Muxue to take advantage of. In a flash, she was within three feet of Xia Qingqing, and her palm struck toward Xia Qingqing's chest.
Xia Qingqing couldn't breathe even before the palm reached her. She knew that she couldn't close her eyes anymore, and she turned around to look at Song Qingshu one last time.
However, Song Qingshu was no longer in the same spot. Xia Qingqing's heart was filled with regret. Could it be that she wouldn't even be able to see him one last time before she died?
She closed her eyes in resignation, but after waiting for a long time, Dongfang Muxue's palm still didn't land on her. She couldn't help but open her eyes in confusion. She saw Song Qingshu standing in front of her, and Dongfang Muxue's palm was pressed against his chest.
A trace of blood seeped out from the corner of Song Qingshu's mouth, and he smiled bitterly, "Dear, you're playing for real." Dongfang Muxue's palm contained a terrifying power. Fortunately, he was strong, or else Xia Qingqing would have died on the spot if it had landed on her.
Seeing that Song Qingshu was injured, Xia Qingqing was both shocked and angry. Without thinking, she stabbed her sword toward Dongfang Muxue.
Perhaps it was because Dongfang Muxue was shocked that she had injured Song Qingshu, or something else, but she stood there like a fool, not dodging the sword that was inches away from her.
Just as the tip of the sword was about to pierce into Dongfang Muxue's chest, Song Qingshu reached out in a hurry and grabbed the Golden Snake Sword, stopping it by a hair's breadth.
No matter how strong Song Qingshu's martial arts were, he was still made of flesh and blood, and the Golden Snake Sword was a famous divine weapon in the martial world. Soon, blood flowed down from his palm along the blade.
"Big Brother Song!" Xia Qingqing exclaimed, hurriedly throwing away the Golden Snake Sword to check his wound. Seeing that his palm was dripping with blood, she sobbed, "I didn't mean to hurt you, I'm sorry."
"It's okay, it's just a superficial wound." With a thought, Song Qingshu sealed a few acupoints near the wound with his True Qi, and the bleeding stopped quickly. At the same time, he wondered if he had used up all his luck during the day on the battlefield. When they entered the bridal chamber at night, they didn't bleed, but he was the one who bled.
"I'll go find some gauze to bandage your wound." Xia Qingqing hurriedly ran to a nearby cabinet and rummaged through it.
Only then did Song Qingshu quietly ask Dongfang Muxue, "Are you crazy? If I didn't stop you just now, Xia Qingqing would have been killed by your palm."
Who knew that Dongfang Muxue had no sense of guilt. "If I didn't use this trick, how could I resolve this hatred?" It turned out that she had predicted that Song Qingshu would definitely come to her rescue, so she purposely used seventy to eighty percent of her strength to injure him to divert Xia Qingqing's attention.
Song Qingshu thought for a while and roughly understood her intention. "But why didn't you dodge after that?"
"To test my worth in your heart." Dongfang Muxue smiled sweetly. "Otherwise, I won't be able to think straight if I only see you risking your life for her."
Song Qingshu was speechless. "If I was just a little slower, would you have just watched as the Golden Snake Sword pierced your chest?"
