Hearing that, Gu Qing's heart calmed down, she turned his head, and saw Pei An's gaze sweeping over his body, then lowering his head, and seeing herself drenched, revealing the curves of his body.
"Rogue!" Gu Qing immediately jumped into the stream, drowning her figure.
The corner of Pei An's mouth rose, "If you have the strength to scold, then you should be done." As he spoke, he jumped into the stream and walked towards Gu Qing in large strides.
The two of them were not far from each other, so Pei An only needed a few steps to arrive in front of her.
Gu Qing shrank back into the water, raising her eyes to look at him, "What are you planning to do?"
The corner of his eyes twitched under Pei An's mask, "Originally I wasn't planning to do anything, but now if I don't do something, I seem to be apologizing for such a good opportunity!" After saying that, he pulled Gu Qing out of the water with his hand.
Ever since Pei An had saved her, although she hadn't spoken much, he was extremely grateful from the bottom of her heart. Therefore, she never expected that Pei An would suddenly attack and completely forgot to retaliate, only to be lifted up by him.
Pei An didn't give her time to react and directly pressed his lips against hers. Gu Qing was stunned. He only reached out to push him away after the cold touch of the mask landed on her face, "Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you saved me once. I don't like you.
Pei An's eyes flashed, without giving her any time to struggle, he bound her arms and legs, grinded his lips, and swallowed all her words into his stomach.
Gu Qing felt a "buzz" go through her head, then all her thoughts drifted away, as she did not know where she was.
After a long while, Pei An finally loosened his grip reluctantly. His gaze swept across her rosy lips, and then said domineeringly: "It doesn't matter if you like me now or not, in the future, you must like me!"
Gu Qing was originally a little confused as to why she did not feel disgusted by this kiss. Instead, she was angered into laughter, "I can't help but like someone, is it something that I can like just because you said I can?"
The corner of Pei An's mouth curled up, and she raised her hand to caress his lips, which had become a little rosy after he bit his lips, "Right, if I said you would like it, then you would like it!"
Not knowing why, Gu Qing's heart suddenly jumped, she frowned, then said: "I already have someone I like."
"I know, but I will erase him from your heart bit by bit." Pei An's tone was filled with dominance and confidence.
Gu Qing did not utter a word, but Pei An continued: "You don't believe me? Do you want me to kiss you again so that you can confirm your feelings? " The gaze that was revealed outside the mask contained a sense of playfulness.
Gu Qing pushed him away fiercely, "Rascal!"
Pei An did not continue to tease her. After all, she had not fully recovered from her injuries. That was why Gu Qing was able to easily push her away.
Following that, the two of them got along extremely tacitly as Gu Qing continued to recover her body and stabilize her Later Period of Foundation Stage. In her previous battle with Qing He, her injuries had been too severe, almost causing her cultivation level to drop by a stage.
She had to return to her peak state before the final match.
When Gu Qing woke up again, she found that Pei An was staring at him, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time.
"Your time for the competition is almost up."
"Why didn't you wake me up?" Gu Qing said as she climbed out of the water. She did not have time to talk with Pei An as she ran out.
This time Pei An did not stop her, and watched her leave his small world.
When she came out, the sky was already bright. It was obvious that the time for the competition had come. If she went too late, she would be determined to have given up on the competition. She didn't have time to change her wet clothes. She cast a dedusting spell on herself before taking out her flying magic treasure and swiftly flying towards the location of the competition.
Fortunately, the sun was shining well, and her dress was dry in the middle of the day.
Only one person was still sitting cross-legged on the stage while the others had already started their battle.
When Gu Lee, who was below, heard that there was going to be Gu Qing's competition today, she had specially come to spectate. But this time, she did not wish for Gu Qing to lose, but hoped for Gu Qing to win instead.
"Where is he? "Go and take a look!" Gu Lee frowned, and unhappily told a junior sister beside him.
The other party hurriedly bowed his head and replied, "Yes." Then, he turned around and left.
Gu Lee stood where she was, the corners of her mouth beginning to tighten.
The cultivator sitting on the ground heaved a sigh of relief. When he found out that he was going to fight against the Xuanhua Sect female cultivator who had defeated Chilian Zi, he had always been worried because he had lost more than once to Chilian Zi.
He was very clear of how powerful Chilian Zi was, but the female cultivator had heavily injured Chilian Zi. Thinking about it, his chances of winning weren't high either.
But even if the chances of victory were small, he still wanted to try if he could luckily get a placing in the Ancient Ruins, so he did not give up right away.
As time slowly passed, his opponent still hadn't appeared. He turned his head to look at the hourglass in front of him, and a hint of delight appeared on his face.
There was only a thin layer of sand left in the hourglass. He quickly turned around and looked at his surroundings, afraid that the female cultivator would suddenly appear.
However, things would not be as wonderful as he had imagined. It was like this at the moment, the more afraid he was of what would happen next.
As he stared, a white figure appeared in front of him. It turned into a streak of light and landed in front of him with a thunderous boom.
"Time's up!"
The instant Gu Qing landed, the High Ranked Cultivator, who was in charge of the operation, announced the end of the time.
The male cultivator was startled, he cupped his hands at Gu Qing: "Fairy, if I am one step too late, I will win without fighting, and let you win!"
Gu Qing ignored him, and turned to look at the host of the High Ranked Cultivator, "Senior, is it true that both parties did not automatically forfeit when the hourglass fell?"
"That's right!" The host, High Ranked Cultivator, opened her eyes and looked at Gu Qing.
The cultivator opposite him saw this and immediately said, "Fairy Maiden, we personally saw the last drop of sand fall!"
Gu Qing also nodded, "That's right, I also saw the last grain of sand fall, but... At that moment, I was already standing on the dueling platform. "
Originally, Gu Qing's arrival and the hourglass were completed at almost the same time, but now it all depended on the High Ranked Cultivator who presided over it.
Gu Qing also understood this point, so her gaze was tightly locked onto the other party's body, and her heart was in her throat.
The High Ranked Cultivator squinted his eyes. When she opened his eyes again, her gaze fell in Gu Qing's direction. You will be standing on the dueling platform at the very last moment before the hourglass ends. "
When Gu Qing's opponent heard this judgement, she immediately swayed. He didn't think that Gu Qing would be heavily favored by the referee.
Since Gu Qing could defeat Chilian Zi, his strength should not be underestimated. Rather than starting a crime, it would be better to give her some face. After all, her talent was much better than the other person on the stage.
Gu Qing was also very surprised. This time, she really didn't have confidence, because she could rely on just one word from the opponent to reject all of her efforts. However, she did not expect him to help her.
She was very grateful and immediately bowed towards him, "Thank you for your fair judgement, senior."
Although the High Ranked Cultivator had done well, she did not accept the kindness. Instead, she only closed her eyes and gave a soft "En" in response.
Seeing that, Gu Qing laughed, and turned to look at her opponent, "Come!"
The opposing cultivator wasn't even a disciple of a large sect. The reason he was able to reach this stage was all because of his good luck. The opponents he met were too weak. It was probably because of this that he exhausted his luck and bumped into Gu Qing in the final battle.
He had suffered a lot at the hands of Chilian Zi, so when he faced Gu Qing, who was able to defeat him, he had already been afraid of him even without fighting.
He stretched his neck, "Come..." "Coming!"
After he finished speaking, he released his big move, a fire snake flew out from the center of his palm and coiled towards Gu Qing.
Gu Qing did not underestimate her. This was a battle of utmost importance, as long as she won, she would be able to enter the Ancient Ruins. She did not seek for treasures, she only wanted to be able to cultivate quietly.
Because of this, she didn't dare to underestimate any of her opponents.
She immediately executed the first move of the Seven Deaths of Soul. The fire snake suddenly stopped three feet in front of her. Gu Qing's figure flashed, the Luoshen's Whip condensed and appeared. She waved the huge whip, and with a "sou" sound, the fierce spirit pressure from her Later Period of Foundation Stage pounced towards the door.
At this time, two breaths of time had already passed. The moment the other party came to his senses, he saw the whip land in front of him. He didn't have time to react at all, and was sent tumbling a few times by the Luoshen's Whip, before collapsing onto the ground with a loud thud.
Gu Qing wanted to settle on a spot, so she took the opportunity to give chase and waved the Luoshen's Whip in her hand again. Countless whip images weaved together into a gigantic net and dropped towards the cultivators opposite him.
The cultivator was a coward to begin with, and now that he had witnessed Gu Qing's power, he was hit without even being able to clearly see his opponent's move. This made him very clear that his opponent was not someone that his level could handle.
"Stop!" "Wait!" He hurriedly waved his hand, and the moment the net made of whip shadows fell, he emphasized the last sentence, "I admit defeat!"
Gu Qing was startled for a moment. Raising her arm, the sky full of whip images also disappeared without a trace. However, her gaze had always been fixed on the other party, wary of him faking it.
This couldn't be blamed on Gu Qing, since she came here to compete step by step, if not for the powerful techniques and treasures, it would be difficult for her to stand till now, so she felt that the opponents to reach this step should be very strong. She never thought that they would surrender after only a few rounds.
If she knew that Chilian Zi had tortured his to death, she would have thought things through.
The man laid on the ground and cried out twice. He didn't do anything.
She narrowed her eyes and stared at him, "Are you really admitting defeat?"
"Yes, I admit it!" Why didn't he admit defeat? His opponent had only made two moves, and he had already been hit with one. He didn't even need to think to know what the result would be. He had lived until now, and the most important thing to do was to be smart. He might as well give up on the spot that he had not been able to get in the first place, at least he wouldn't die from the pain like Chilian Zi, his cultivation level almost dropping.
The High Ranked Cultivator in charge did not expect the cultivator on the ground to be so strong. With a "Hmph", she thought to herself that it was fortunate that Gu Qing had stayed, otherwise, it would be a waste for such a coward to enter Ancient Ruins.
