I bought a secret manual of the Hehuan Sect for ten yuan.

"And what if you lose?"

Yu Jinghong suppressed her anger. She changed her mind. She could spare Qin Ge's life, but she would knock out his front teeth!

"So what if you lost? Do I have to kowtow to you?" Qin Ge said indifferently. "You were the one who wanted to fight, not the other way around."

"If you can't accept it, then forget it!"

"Okay, I agree to your terms!" Yu Jinghong knew Qin Ge was using reverse psychology, but she still agreed because she didn't think she would lose.

"Great!" Qin Ge was a little surprised that this girl was so easy to fool. "But what if you try to renege?"

He looked at Yan Chengrui, "Mr. Yan, why don't you do us the trouble of notarizing this?"

"Sure, as long as you two have no objections, I'd be more than happy to oblige!" Yan Chengrui readily agreed, then turned around and brought over a pot of tea.

He was holding two cups in his hand, and gave one to Shen Tingzhi, looking like he was ready to watch the show.

Shen Tingzhi held the cup, somewhat lost in thought. Yan Chengrui was always composed; he had never seen this side of Yan Chengrui before.

Qin Ge took a few steps forward, standing awkwardly facing Yu Jinghong. "Think it over and then make your move!"

"However, I must remind you that once you make your move, our bet will be in effect, with Mr. Yan as our witness!"

"Let's see how long you can be so arrogant!" Yu Jinghong roared, her jade palm lashing out with a powerful gust of wind as she struck Qin Ge's chest with fierce speed.

Shen Tingzhi's eyelids twitched. Was this for real? Would something bad happen?

He glanced at Yan Chengrui beside him and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yan Chengrui was calm and composed.

As Yu Jinghong approached, Qin Ge slightly shifted his body to the side, dodging her attack, and his fingertips lightly brushed across her wrist. "Miss Yu, if that's all you've got, you can't beat me!"

"If I don't take this seriously, I'm definitely keeping this maid. Three meals a day, four things every day—not a single one can be skipped!"

"As you wish!" Yu Jinghong's previous palm strike was indeed just a test, but provoked by Qin Ge, his attack became even more ferocious.

She used her Flowing Cloud Palm technique to its fullest extent, her palm winds were so powerful that even Shen Tingzhi and his companion, who were watching from the sidelines, felt a sense of oppression and could barely open their eyes.

However, Qin Ge still seemed to be strolling leisurely. Although he looked very dangerous, he always managed to dodge the attacks with a light touch by either turning to the side or spinning around at the last second.

As he expected, Yu Jinghong's aura was much stronger than Su Wenxi's, but it was still too slow for him.

"How can this guy's movement skills be so amazing?" Yu Jinghong thought to himself, becoming more and more alarmed as the fight progressed.

"All you do is run away, you cowardly rat!"

Yu Jinghong shouted sharply, trying to provoke Qin Ge, but found that Qin Ge's figure had already disappeared from Qin Ge's sight!

"Slap slap—"

She had just felt a chill run down her spine when she heard a sharp crack and felt a sharp pain in her lower back, which terrified her.

Yu Jinghong hurriedly leaped forward, creating distance between herself and Qin Ge, then turned around and angrily shouted, "You, you bastard!"

"You actually hit me... hit me..."

Shen Tingzhi and Yan Chengrui were stunned, spilling the tea from their cups onto the floor.

The two turned their heads to look at each other at the same time, smiled at each other, and even the curve of their lips was surprisingly the same.

"I'm going to kill you!" Yu Jinghong was both ashamed and angry.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to!" Qin Ge continued to dodge Yu Jinghong's increasingly fierce attacks. "It's just that your buttocks were too high, and I couldn't help myself."

"It really wasn't intentional..."

"You still dare to talk!" Yu Jinghong attacked with both palms, focusing solely on offense and refusing to defend.

However, Qin Ge disappeared again.

"You can admit defeat with some dignity now." Qin Ge's voice rang in Yu Jinghong's ears, even carrying a warm breath.

Yu Jinghong was horrified and quickly retreated. When her gaze refocused on Qin Ge, a hint of panic appeared in her eyes.

This guy's agility and speed are terrifying, far surpassing mine!

He must have been the one who killed Li Canglan by surprise with his agility and speed, right?

Yu Jinghong thought to herself, while pondering a countermeasure.

"You think you can make me admit defeat? Don't even think about it!"

"Isn't your smugness just because of your agility?"

"You're definitely not mine in a head-on fight. Do you dare to try and take one of my moves?"

Yu Jinghong took a deep breath to calm herself down.

She felt she had seen through Qin Ge's plan, which was to provoke her in this way, wait for her to lose her temper and reveal a weakness, and then seize the opportunity to counterattack!

"Your brain really isn't working properly!" Qin Ge seemed to see right through Yu Jinghong's thoughts. "I can appear behind you and beat you up, and I can even whisper in your ear. Can't I do anything else?"

"If I had a knife in my hand when I spoke, you'd be dead already!"

"Are you genuinely unable to see it, or are you simply unable to accept reality?"

"Just admit defeat, it's only been a month, it'll be over soon!"

Shen Tingzhi and Yan Chengrui nodded slightly. They didn't understand martial arts, but they both felt that Qin Ge's words made sense, and the outcome was already decided.

It seems Qin Ge hasn't even gotten serious yet; this guy's strength is truly unfathomable!

Yu Jinghong not only lost, but she couldn't even force Qin Ge to reveal his full strength, making the difference in their abilities obvious.

Yan Chengrui seemed to understand why his father had asked to meet with Qin Ge alone.

Yu Jinghong is not the strongest in the East Sea Martial Arts Hall, but she is definitely not weak. Like Li Canglan, she is also a master of the Earth Realm!

Yet, even a master of the Earth Realm like her was completely outmaneuvered by Qin Ge!

"Stop talking nonsense, do you dare take a blow from my palm?"

Qin Ge was right. Yu Jinghong couldn't accept being his maid for a month, and she couldn't accept losing!

Qin Ge beckoned with his hand, smiling but saying nothing.

"Don't blame me if you get hurt!" Yu Jinghong used all her strength, unleashing her most powerful palm strike without holding back.

"boom--"

Qin Ge raised his hand and exchanged a palm strike with Yu Jinghong, his feet firmly planted on the ground, his body remaining completely still.

Yu Jinghong was forced back more than ten steps, her face turning pale.

"Don't move." Before the storm raging in Yu Jinghong's heart had subsided, Qin Ge's voice rang in her ears again.

Immediately afterwards, a finger struck her waist, causing all her strength to dissipate, her legs to buckle, and she fell backward, landing squarely in Qin Ge's arms.

"You smell so good!" Qin Ge said in a voice that only he and Yu Jinghong could hear, a mischievous smile playing on his lips.

He was deliberately trying to hurt Yu Jinghong, but Yu Jinghong was indeed both fragrant and soft.

"You scoundrel! Shameless!" Yu Jinghong blushed deeply, her face a mixture of shock and anger.

She tried to get up, but found that she couldn't muster any strength at all. She only managed to stay upright by leaning on Qin Ge's arms.

Just as she was panicking, a hand slowly reached towards her chest.

Yu Jinghong's eyes widened in horror, and she cried out in shock, "You lecherous scoundrel, what are you doing?!"

"Help!"

Shen Tingzhi and Yan Chengrui, who were watching from the sidelines, looked at each other, hesitating whether to speak up to stop Qin Ge or turn their faces away.

Qin Ge is too bold! It's good to be young!

But isn't this a bit inappropriate in broad daylight?

Shen Tingzhi and the other man chose the latter, again without prior arrangement.
