He was coming towards their place with his usual arrogant look, and with his nose on the clouds. This guy didn't seem to care about their position anymore.
Strength does this to people, when people have enough strength to top anyone, they sometimes lose their hearts and mind to it, and forget about the place from where they came from.
Jake Long entered their tent area and stopped at the entrance of the tent waiting for a voice to call him in. He was sure that they had already sensed his arrival.
Inside the tent, Qin Bao and the two girls were pissed off at his conduct, and at his arrogance. After all, the two girls and Tianlong Ying Yan were like the guardians of this place.
A little bit of respect was required, no matter who came to visit them, but yet this guy was not showing the least bit of respect.
But controlling themselves, the girls told Qin Bao to pretend like she was working while they stopped in the middle of the tent, and said in a superfluous voice,
Girls:" Enter."
Receiving his expected permission, Jake Long entered inside the tent, and immediately took a look at the people and atmosphere inside.
Soon his eyes found Qin Bao working on cleaning the dust on a shelf, and he couldn't control himself from looking lustfully at that amazing back.
It wasn't that he didn't have the same thoughts about the other two women inside the tent, it was just that they were more difficult to deal with at the moment.
While he could act arrogantly in front of them, he couldn't go further. Not to mention that the two girls had already announced that they were Tianlong Yun's women.
At the moment he couldn't do anything to them, but soon. Soon, everything would change, he had already started his plan, now he only had to wait for the right moment.
On the other hand, the girls were already fuming inside at the guts of this worm, but they had to keep themselves under control.
But Tianlong Huo couldn't really support this guy anymore, and making a dry cough for attention, she said,
Tianlong Huo:" Ahem~. So what are you here for Jake?"
Awakened from his reverie of looking at Qin Bao, Jake turned towards them, and said with a proud and determined voice,
Jake Long:" I have come here to challenge you to a duel, a month from now ladies."
His words almost made the girls explode, this worm not only was challenging them but also seemed to have forgotten all the honorifics.
Before he would only call them Senior Sisters, and now he was calling them ladies. He truly needed a good lesson.
At this moment, Tianlong Huo jumped first to answer, and said with a dark and gloomy tone,
Tianlong Huo:" Very well, I accept your challenge."
Tianlong Shui wanted to say the same thing too, but then she was stunned by his next words,
Jake Long:" OH, you seem to have misunderstood me, I am not challenging one of you.
I am challenging both of you, a month from now. It will be a 2 versus 1 fight."
At the end of his words, he had a slight smile on his face. While the faces of Tianlong Huo and Tianlong Shui were darker and gloomier.
Looking at him right in the eye, Tianlong Shui as the calmer person, said with a solemn voice,
Tianlong Shui:" Are you sure about this!?"
But Jake Long didn't seem to be frightened by that look, and said with a teasing tone,
Jake Long:" It wouldn't be that you don't dare, would it now?"
There was something wrong with his attitude, he seemed too confident in his win. Even the hasty Tianlong Huo had a bad hunch hearing his confident tone.
But there was no way they could give up on this right now, so Tianlong Shui said in a serious, and solemn voice,
Tianlong Shui:" We accept the challenge!"
Seeing that this was going according to his plans, Jake Long decided to take this to the next level,
Jake Long:" These is the bravery of the senior sisters I know. But wouldn't it be too dull if we just fight for the sake of it?
Why don't we place a little bet!?"
The girls were caught unprepared because they didn't expect this. This guy was passing his limits over and over again. But they couldn't step back now,
Tianlong Shui:" What do you mean? What bet!?"
Everything was going according to his plans, so Jake Long kept with his worked scenario,
Jake Long:" If I win, I will take your place in the 16 shadows, and that girl over there."
Hearing this, the three ladies in the tent were stunned, at this guy's guts and stupidity.
First of all while, there was a chance of getting substituted in the 16 Shadows, which was done only by Tianlong Yun, and he only chooses people who were death loyal to him.
Second of all, asking for Qin Bao was like a toad wanting to eat a swan. She was Tianlong Yun's woman, the Patriarch of the Clan.
But still, his confidence at realizing this was nothing good. They had to be careful with him, really careful. Looking at him with a surprised look, Tianlong Shui asked back,
Tianlong Shui:" And what if we win!?"
Satisfied that the girls had taken the bait, Jake Long took something out of his pocket, and said solemnly,
Jake Long:" If you win, I am going to give each of you one of these."
In his hand was a silver ring, with some lines over it. It looked pretty simple but it wasn't, it was a Mortal high-grade treasure space ring, and it had a space of 100 meters cube inside.
Seeing that ring, Tianlong Huo started laughing and said,
Tianlong Huo:" What are you trying to propose to us now?"
Jake Long didn't seem to be bothered by her comment, and said lightly,
Jake Long:" I would wish, but you are Master's women, I can't do that. These here are Mortal high-grade treasure space rings, with a space of 100 meters cube inside.
I got two of them, one for each of you. Tell me are these enough!?"
The ladies were once again stunned by him, these would be more than enough as a bet. But there was another question they couldn't ask at the moment.
'Where did this guy find those two rings?'
No matter what, they couldn't say no to this bet, and challenge. They could only try to keep him away from Qin Bao in the meantime. Thinking like that, Tianlong Shui said,
Tianlong Shui:" Very well, we accept the bet and the challenge. But during this time you have to stay away from that girl."
Jake Long was a bit surprised at her condition, but he could wait, after all with his plan, not only Qin Bao but even these two would be his.
With this thought in mind, he said,
Jake Long:" Sure, of course, senior sister, now if you excuse me I have to go and train. I will be fighting both of you after a month though."
With that said, he left the place with the same arrogance and pride he entered, and if someone could see his face at the moment, they would also see a devilish smile.
It was like his plan had already succeeded and he would be reaping and enjoying the benefits real soon.
On the other hand, the ladies inside the tent seemed to be in deep thoughts. What could be the confidence of this guy, and who was behind him.
But nothing was coming to their mind. After thinking for some time Qin Bao said solemnly,
Qin Bao:" No matter who is behind him, and what his confidence is, firstly we need to report this issue detailed to Big Sister Xia.
I think that the matter is more serious and complicated than we first thought. We can't handle this alone, we need help from the head quarts.
There is one thing that bothers me though since they have decided to act, they might have us surrounded and it would be difficult to make a connection.
Also, the person we send for the letter might get caught in the way. We need to think things through. It seems like we are a bit late."
Hearing this, the other two girls were also aware of the current situation, and they couldn't believe that they had been this relaxed, while all this happened around them.
It was their fault, if they had been a little bit more attentive perhaps this would never happen. But they could do nothing about it now.
The only way out of this was to take responsibility and fight through this. Their blood was boiling in shame at this moment, they truly messed things up.
Seeing their sad and sorrowful faces, Qin Bao said,
Qin Bao:" Don't worry everything has a solution. Right now the most important thing is for you two to train and cultivate harder. You will need to fight that guy soon.
I will take care of the rest."
The two girls didn't seem really convinced, but they couldn't disobey her words, and just accepted their order, and left to train, and cultivate. They had a lot of steam to let out.
Meanwhile, Qin Bao was left alone in the tent, she was still in deep thoughts about how to deal with this situation, and there didn't seem to be any other choice.
She didn't want to do that, because it meant that she was already accepting defeat in a way, but there were more important things at play than her pride to win at this moment.
She couldn't be stubborn with this, so she just looked towards the empty space, and said,
Qin Bao:" If you are there, then this is no time to stay hidden, we need your help…
