Cohabitation with Sword Spirit-Chapter 143 - 116: A True Feminist

Under the night sky, in the small training field beneath the Drunken Immortal Tower, Qian Ye stood alone, his face ashen.

Not far away, a graceful young girl looked at him with a face full of worry.

Beside the girl, Li Wanqing, dressed as a man, shrugged: "If I were you, I'd let him calm down on his own. If you go over there now, no matter what you say, to a straight guy it'll sound like you're kicking him when he's down, and he'll hold it against you... Of course, being resented by a straight guy isn't a big deal. If he dares to bully you, I'll beat him up."

Zhou Yu shook her head: "Sister Wanqing, actually Qian Ye isn't as bad as you say. I've been dating him for a year, and most of the time... he's really nice, it's just that recently, maybe the pressure from home has been too much for him."

Li Wanqing said: "Yeah, too much pressure, family pressure, cultivation pressure, and all sorts of pressures. He's no longer a carefree boy. As he grows up, the pressure will only increase. And if someone can't handle pressure and takes it out on women, then he's an outright jerk."

Zhou Yu smiled helplessly: "Sister Wanqing, you always say things so dramatically."

"Tsk tsk, you love-struck little girl, you just won't face reality. Do you want me to introduce some older sisters to share their experiences with you? Then you'll know, compared to what I've told you, the real thing is often much harsher."

Zhou Yu said: "Well, if there's a chance, I'd like to hear what they have to say. But..."

"Alright, alright, if you want to talk to him, go ahead, but don't say I didn't warn you."

Li Wanqing waved her hand somewhat helplessly, letting Zhou Yu go talk to her "ex-boyfriend."

Soon, Zhou Yu went over to Qian Ye and started talking to him softly.

Qian Ye still seemed a bit dazed, as if he had been beaten to a lifeless state by Li Wanqing...

But after a while, with Zhou Yu's comfort, Qian Ye finally regained some energy, apologizing non-stop to Zhou Yu, his eyes reddened.

However, Zhou Yu was the first to cry, holding Qian Ye's head, continually comforting and encouraging him, the atmosphere growing more soothing until, finally, they both laughed together unknowingly.

Not far away, Li Wanqing looked on somewhat fatigued.

"What the heck, they really made up... so all my efforts were for nothing? But whatever, heterosexual relationships are a dead end anyway, they'll break up sooner or later."

Li Wanqing watched for a while, feeling bored, seeing the two getting more and more intimate, and simply shook her head, ready to leave.

However, she hadn't walked far when she saw two middle-aged men, faces anxious yet excited, running towards her, out of breath.

Li Wanqing glanced at the two, confirming they were ordinary people without Immortal Cultivation, she lowered her guard halfway, and when they got closer, she asked in a deep voice, "What do you want with me?"

Leading the way was a frail, middle-aged man with a goatee. He excitedly took out a card from his bosom and respectfully handed it to Li Wanqing, simultaneously saying, "Hello Miss Wanqing, we are reporters from Cyan Cloud Daily. I am Meng Wen, pen name Meng Wen."

Li Wanqing was momentarily stunned.

At this time, the chubby middle-aged man following the goateed man wiped his sweat and presented another card. "I am Yue Lian, pen name Lian Sanyue."

Li Wanqing was startled again: "I, I think I've heard of you. Aren't you the ones who serialized romance novels in Cloud Rising Weekly!?"

The two reporters were taken aback, exchanged glances, and then smiled somewhat bashfully: "We didn't expect Miss Wanqing to have read our works."

Li Wanqing just felt a chill down her back, remembering that she had actually read these two's serial lesbian-themed novels back then, and wished she could gouge out her eyeballs...

But thinking about the obsession she had chasing updates back then, and the wonderful experience from those romantic and gorgeous love stories, Li Wanqing held her patience and asked, "What do you want with me?"

"Well, we heard you just defeated the Qian Family's core disciple Qian Ye and would like to interview you about it."

Li Wanqing was shocked in her heart, how could news have reached the Cyan Cloud Daily reporters so quickly?!

Li Wanqing didn't know that with only about two months left until the Cyan Cloud Competition, the whole rhythm of QingCyan Cloud yun City was being driven, especially the media workers, whose nerves had long been tight, like a spider web covering the whole city, any slight movement would excite them greatly.

And if news like "Lu Family's prodigy Lu Fangchen recently broke through to the Late Stage of the Cloud Surge Realm" or "The Inner Sect chief instructor in the Li Family Mansion got a new hairstyle causing visual pollution" were mere ripples, then the duel between Li Wanqing and Qian Ye at the Drunken Immortal Tower field was undoubtedly a hurricane.

The decennial Cyan Cloud Competition is a grand event for young cultivators in the entire Cyan Cloud Region, attracting thousands upon thousands of participants, but on this big stage, there are actually fewer than a hundred truly well-known characters. And those who can claim the spotlight, you can count on one hand.

Among them, Qian Ye is undoubtedly the most eye-catching, at the age of over nineteen, with cultivation at the Peak of the Cloud Surge Realm, and the full backing of the Qian Clan's resources, making him the top seed most likely to win.

By comparison, the leading figures of the Li Family and Lu Family, Li Wanqing and Lu Fangchen, limited by age and insufficient cultivation time, are less favored for the championship than Qian Ye. However, as the two great families have legacies spanning thousands of years, no one dares to assert they don't have formidable hidden cards, so at the very least, they are in a state of reserved observation. Just waiting for the grand competition to commence at the end of December to find out.
