Chapter 75: Throwing the bait!
Chapter 75: Throwing the bait!
"The fight will begin in ten minutes!"
Stepping out of the changing room, one of the guides hurriedly informs me about the timing. So I still have a moment? It's a time to put my plan into motion!
"Eve, would you mind accompanying me outside?"
Grabbing her hand, I make typical puppy eyes while holding her palm near my mouth as if getting ready to courtly kiss it. I can't tell her what I'm going to do! With her shyness, I can only hope she won't hate me for doing it!
"Of course! Why do you think you even need to ask me this?"
With a question marks appearing around her face in my imagination, I can't help but chuckle. Did I mention that with our every interaction I'm falling even deeper in love with her? I didn't? Okay then. With our every interaction, I'm falling even deeper in love with her!
Since she doesn't have a problem with it, I can only bless my luck, grab her hand and follow the only way outside. Even while being here for the first time, the route to the open space is quite obvious, as if designed to encourage people to follow it.
As we enter the fighting grounds, I can see a massive crowd of people loaded on the tribunes! How come this silly fight between two common cultivators amassed such an audience? I know that Baxhar is considered to by prodigy by some but it still doesn't make sense Did they come here to witness hard face slapping on some arrogant cultivator who dared to challenge him? Or did the rumours that I believe that this little shit is spreading made them emotionally invested in this fight? If that's the truth, they are in for a rollercoaster of surprises!
"So you didn't chicken out! Are you ready to be trashed around for your insults toward my Goddess? Don't think I will forgive you for threatening and forcing her to follow you around!"
Heh, this kid is already in the open space, probably waiting for my arrival to spew bullshit with my first appearance! I've gotta say, that's quite a dedication on his part!
"Look at your weapon? Did you stole it from someone or were you so scared that you forgot to bring the scabbard? You are truly a disgrace to all cultivators! I will make sure to correct your ways today and show you what a real might is!"
The more he tries to insult me, the happier I am. WIth every nonsense he speaks off, he increases the level of his rage by himself! The less emotionally stable he is, the easier it will be for me to bait him into betting his participation token!
"While I have no idea what made you force this duel upon me, I'm more than happy to oblige. But since I guess you had some ulterior motives in doing so - except for the fact that some seniors prevented your friends to ganging up on me. Mind telling me, what made you lose your mind to be so brazen and challenge me in the first place?"
I can't let him revel in his doubtful glory of insulting me without a single response! But the fire needs to be fanned carefully. If I show too much confidence in myself, he might calm down and realise that I'm not scared at all!
"What did you say?"
Seeing that I wasn't calmly holding myself while he kept insulting me, his little mind apparently stopped working. Was he so stupid to believe that he could do and say whatever he wanted and I would just take it without a word of protest?
"Don't you know who I am? Don't you fear death?"
"Oh, I do fear death sooooo much! It is to the point that I don't really want to waste my time trashing you for nothing! While seeing your face covered in blood and tears will be a sight to behold, I don't really see a reason to waste my time in making this small wish of mine come true!"
Just like that, answer with some more insults so that he will boil in his rage! Eh, this is too damn easy!
"Do you want to bet then? You should know what is my intention behind this duel already! I admit I was initially wrong in thinking that Eve really cared for you, but who could've known that you actually blackmail her! If that's the case, when I win the duel, you will cut all your ties with her!"
Great, he isn't as stupid as I was scared he will be. But to be honest, I'm yet to see anyone else so happy about taking the bait! To be honest, he didn't take it. He just took it all the way to the bottom of his throat and swallowed it!
"As if it wasn't you who spread those baseless rumours in the first place! But since you want to sever my relationship with my loved one, you can't refuse my request to have a small encouragement from her? Eve, can you come here?"
Ah, this sight of being stupefied on his face! I can't get enough of it! But there is still something I need to do!
"What's up?"
Approaching me, Eve didn't know what I was about to do. I can only pray to the heavens that she will forgive me later on!
Grabbing her in the waist as soon as she appeared within my reach, I turn her around so that Baxhar will be able to see only her back. Noticing the confusion in her eyes, I resolve myself and lean over her, connecting out lips.
I can feel the whole audience, Baxhar and Eve freezing up on the spot altogether. But that's just the beginning! I didn't call her to steal a small peck from her lips!
As my kiss turns more and more passionate, I make sure to insert my tongue inside her mouth. Pulling her as close to my body as I can, I enjoy the taste of her saliva while preventing her from even taking a single breath!
With one of my hands holding her waist as close as possible, I let the second one roam freely around her body! Starting from the back, I slowly travel downwards the moment that I can feel her melt under my kiss!
Unable to think rationally at this point, Eve can only passively return my intimacy, throwing her arms around my neck. With my hand finally finding itself in the presence of her soft buttocks, she raises her leg in an attempt to hand in on my waist!
At this point, I suddenly break away from her, pushing her away from me. At this moment, she can't be bothered by all the people watching us with a stupefied look on their faces! As soon as we separate, she attempts to close the distance and continue the kiss, only to be ruthlessly kept away by my hand.
Raising my eyes from her silly face, I look at the stunned Baxhar with a smile.
"With this kind of encouragement, I think I can conquer the heavens!"
