247: Chapter 247 Call Me Jingmiao

[No, are female Cultivators nowadays all this open?]

[Don't be like this, okay?]

[I really can't take it.]

He... was tempted.

So men like this sort of thing.

Daoist Master Jingmiao's heart stirred.

"I can also dance."

"I can dance for my husband for the rest of my life."

Li Qing: "..."

[Wait, why am I the husband already?]

[Did I agree to this?]

"Farewell."

Li Qing took off running.

Daoist Master Jingmiao's beautiful eyes, like stars, watched Li Qing's retreating back as she slowly followed.

For someone with a Dao Heart as firm as hers, once she made a decision, she would not change it.

Several days later.

In a restaurant in a bustling town, Li Qing sat by the window, drinking wine.

At that moment, a faint fragrance drifted by, and a pale, jade-like hand reached out in front of Li Qing, picking up the wine pot to gently pour him a cup.

Li Qing looked up, meeting Daoist Master Jingmiao's gaze.

Daoist Master Jingmiao even playfully winked at Li Qing.

Li Qing downed the wine in one go, set the cup down, and bolted.

Daoist Master Jingmiao filled the cup again, picked it up, and took a small sip.

"It seems to have his scent."

"I've heard this counts as an indirect kiss."

"You've already kissed me, so why are you still running?"

A blush appeared on Daoist Master Jingmiao's face.

Luckily, Li Qing didn't hear her.

Otherwise, he might have died of frustration.

Several days later.

Just as Li Qing arrived at the second floor of a wine shop in another bustling town, a graceful figure appeared before him, and a face of peerless beauty entered his sight.

It was none other than Daoist Master Jingmiao.

"You're here."

"I've prepared the food and wine for you."

[Holy crap, how is she here?]

[No way, I have to get out of here.]

"Even if you're going to leave."

"Shouldn't you eat your fill before running?"

Daoist Master Jingmiao broke into a smile, and the entire wine shop seemed to brighten up.

Li Qing: "..."

[What does she mean by that?]

[Making it sound like I'm afraid of you.]

[Fine, I'll eat.]

"This way."

Daoist Master Jingmiao naturally extended her jade-like hand, leading Li Qing toward a table.

Though she tried her best to appear calm, her fair cheeks were already covered in a thick blush, betraying her inner turmoil.

After all, this was the first time in her life that Daoist Master Jingmiao had held a man's hand.

[Wait, why are we getting physical now?]

[Do you female protagonists have no sense of boundaries?]

Daoist Master Jingmiao gently helped Li Qing sit down, then reached out with her pale hand to pick up the wine pot and fill a cup for him.

"By the way, I still don't know your name, Fellow Daoist."

Daoist Master Jingmiao said softly.

"Li Qing."

Li Qing answered while looking at the dishes on the table.

These were the same dishes he had eaten last time.

Daoist Master Jingmiao had actually meticulously remembered them all.

From this, Li Qing could see that Daoist Master Jingmiao was being serious.

Otherwise,

Why would she care about such small matters?

"My Daoist title is Jingmiao, and my given name is Nianqing."

"My surname is Mu."

Li Qing: "..."

[No way, Nianqing? Are you serious?]

[Could you make up a faker name?]

"Do you think I'm lying to you?"

"How could anyone be named Nianqing, right?"

"But that really is my name."

"I've been called that since birth."

"It turns out our marriage was destined from the moment I was born."

Daoist Master Jingmiao handed the wine cup to Li Qing.

"Um, Senior..."

"Call me Jingmiao."

"Or Nianqing."

"Revered Master works too."

Li Qing: "..."

[Seriously, can we just not get over this 'Revered Master' thing?]

"Supreme Jingmiao."

"Your destined one isn't me."

Li Qing sighed softly.

"Whether it's you or not, I know best."

"Do you think I'm ugly?"

The jade hand holding the wine cup trembled slightly.

[That's not it.]

[Not only are you beautiful, but your figure is also beyond words. No man wouldn't like you.]

Li Qing took the wine cup, downed it, set it down, and immediately got up to run.

Daoist Master Jingmiao sat in Li Qing's seat, refilled the cup, and took a small sip.

"That's the second time."

A blush appeared on Daoist Master Jingmiao's face.

By now, Li Qing was already hundreds of miles away.

*Boom!*

Just then, Li Qing suddenly felt the Chaos Qi in the sky behind him explode as a golden palm print descended from the heavens.

Li Qing looked back.

He saw a massive Eternal Dharma Idol emerge and clash head-on with the golden palm print.

The Eternal Dharma Idol was blown apart in a single strike.

A figure was sent flying by the golden palm print.

"Daoist Master Jingmiao."

Li Qing's gaze narrowed.

*Hum.*

At the same time, the nearby Void Realm suddenly split open, and a bewildered Gu Beichen was tossed out.

[Damn it, it's another forced encounter.]

Li Qing turned and stepped forward, appearing near the figure and catching Daoist Master Jingmiao in his arms.

At this moment,

She also spotted Gu Beichen.

He really was being targeted.

No.

I can't delay any longer.

"I originally wanted to properly nurture our feelings first."

"But now, it seems there's no time left."

Li Qing: "..."

Daoist Master Jingmiao suddenly took out a Talisman glowing with Eternal Divine Light and tore it apart.

A brilliant golden light enveloped the two of them.

When the golden light reached its peak brightness, the two vanished from the spot.

Gu Beichen looked at the spot where the two had disappeared with a dazed expression.

Meanwhile,

Inside an Immortal Cave surrounded by Chaos Qi, a flash of golden light appeared, and Li Qing and Daoist Master Jingmiao emerged.

*Pfft.*

Daoist Master Jingmiao's mouth suddenly opened, and she sprayed out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"You're injured."

Li Qing was startled.

"Yes."

"Now my whole body is starting to stiffen; I can't move an inch."

Daoist Master Jingmiao said softly.

[This forced plot point...]

[I don't even want to comment on it.]

Li Qing held Daoist Master Jingmiao, preparing to lay her down on a jade bed.

"I don't want the jade bed."

"Let me lie in your arms for a while."

Li Qing: "..."

"Wait, men and women shouldn't be so intimate."

Li Qing whispered.

"In my heart,"

"you are already my husband."

"What's wrong with being held by my own husband?"

"Husband can actually do anything he wants to me."

A blush appeared on Daoist Master Jingmiao's face.

Li Qing: "..."

[Oh Heavens!]

[Oh Earth!]

[You can't do this to me.]

[No wonder they say the distance between a woman chasing a man is only as thin as a layer of gauze.]

[Now the gauze has been ripped away entirely.]

[What man could withstand this?]

*Pfft.*

Daoist Master Jingmiao was amused by Li Qing's inner thoughts.

So cute.

Having a husband whose inner voice I can hear is so interesting.

"You're still laughing?"

"You almost died."

Li Qing said crossly.

"Because you were nearby."

"I knew you wouldn't just leave me be."

"Right?"

Daoist Master Jingmiao winked at Li Qing.

[Your judgment of people is really spot on.]

Li Qing rolled his eyes.

Because I know,

You will help me.

Daoist Master Jingmiao thought silently to herself.

"I have medicine in my robes; feed it to me and I'll be able to move."

Daoist Master Jingmiao said softly.

"Why didn't you say so earlier?"

Li Qing reached out to get the medicine.

At that moment, Daoist Master Jingmiao's delicate body suddenly trembled, and a deep blush quickly spread across her face.

"You... grabbed... the... wrong... thing."

"That... isn't... the... Medicinal Pill..."

Daoist Master Jingmiao's voice was shaking.

Li Qing's body suddenly stiffened.

[Oh crap, this is...]
