"Clang!"

The two swords clashed again, the moves were identical, and with their handsome looks and beautiful features, it seemed more like they were dancing in tune together, making everyone excited to watch.

"Bingshuang, something seems off. How come my brother is dancing with Wan Li, and both of them are using the same moves? And Tianlong wasn’t bluffing earlier. He actually learned it on the spot. Wow, a genius!"

Mo Jing couldn’t help but admire. She increasingly found Chen Tianlong simple yet profound.

Previously, they had suspected Chen Tianlong was a celestial being sent to protect them, capable of leaping on rooftops and being invincible like Xiaoqiang. Every time something happened, he would appear instantly, much like the superpower users from TV shows.

But that was nothing. Previously at Huang Ziyan’s fan meeting, Chen Tianlong’s singing was amazing, and now learning swordsmanship after just one glance was shockingly impressive and unbelievable.

"Kind of like it."

Li Bingshuang also noticed that the two, when wielding swords, seemed very compatible. If one didn’t know them, they might think it was a couple playing around with swords.

At this moment, the fight on the stage became more intense. Jian Wanli had clearly started using her real power, otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to withstand Chen Tianlong’s attacks.

Although Chen Tianlong’s swordsmanship was similar to hers, he had an innate strength.

It should be known that even before becoming a cultivator, Chen Tianlong was extraordinarily strong. Now, without using cultivation techniques, his strength was enough to contend with someone of the Yellow Dao three-star level.

After a while, Chen Tianlong thought it was enough. He took out three silver needles from his pocket. He didn’t want to show strength, letting Xiao Jianteng notice, but the Soul-Stealing Three Needles was his Ultimate Skill, more than enough to handle Jian Wanli.

With a Ghost Shadow Flash, he moved in, while the silver needles followed with his sword. Apart from a few cultivators present, no one noticed that Chen Tianlong had used hidden weapons.

However, the competition didn’t forbid the use of hidden weapons, and Chen Tianlong’s hidden weapons were completely non-toxic and harmless; they just sealed Jian Wanli’s acupoints.

"Clang!"

Jian Wanli’s sword fell from her hand. She stood there dumbfounded, motionless, as if she was bewitched, in utter astonishment.

Seizing the opportunity, Chen Tianlong swiftly moved over, picked her up entirely, and laughed, "I won, so the beauty is mine. Xiao Jianteng, you can leave now."

"Damn!"

Xiao Jianteng was so frustrated. He just won, yet hadn’t even claimed his prize, and here Chen Tianlong was embracing her.

"What? Not convinced? When you won, what did you say? But by holding her, I’m proving that I won for her. Who else would she choose if not me?" Chen Tianlong stated directly.

"I don’t care. Jian Wanli hasn’t chosen yet. How are you so sure she’d pick you?" Xiao Jianteng couldn’t bear the sight of Chen Tianlong.

Chen Tianlong chuckled but didn’t argue. Instead, he casually tapped on Jian Wanli’s body a couple of times, and she could move. Surprisingly, though Jian Wanli could now move, she didn’t struggle off Chen Tianlong. On the contrary, she wrapped her arms around his neck, snuggling closer to his chest.

When Jian Wanli’s mother passed away when she was young, and though her father loved her dearly, lacking a mother’s love, she sought a man she could rely on.

Her father had set her up on many dates, and she had been in relationships, embraced before, but she never found the warmth she sought.

But just now, Chen Tianlong’s casual embrace dazzled her. Why did this man’s embrace make her feel so at ease and reluctant to let go?

At this moment, she only wanted Chen Tianlong to hold her like this forever, freezing time in this second. Jian Wanli seemed to understand something; he was the one she’d been waiting for, and he had finally appeared.

Chen Tianlong was taken aback, seeing Jian Wanli clinging to him, somewhat at a loss, while Li Bingshuang below the stage was already stunned.

She never expected Jian Wanli to truly act like Chen Tianlong’s wife, embracing him tightly. This was blatant cheating.

"Bingshuang, I guess we both made a mistake, letting my brother be taken away. We must hurry and get him back together. Our joint efforts never fail," Mo Jing urgently pointed at the stage.

Even more frustrated was Xiao Jianteng. He thought there might be hope, but unexpectedly, they were already in each other’s arms.

It was a complete defeat. However, always competitive, Xiao Jianteng was infuriated by this scene, and his inner strength erupted immediately.

His three subordinates were shocked, quickly reminding him, "Young master, don’t act rashly. There are other ways to approach the Sword Manor Master than this."

"Sigh..."

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Jianteng calmed down. His father had repeatedly reminded him not to act recklessly, or it might cause serious trouble.

Holding Jian Wanli, Chen Tianlong felt awkward, but the crowd below began to give approving glances, praising the match. Hearing this made Chen Tianlong chuckle bitterly.

Initially, he intended to pull Jian Wanli away, but even applying some force, he found she still tightly held on, feeling quite vexed.

After a long while, Jian Wanli finally let go herself, then looked at Chen Tianlong with deep affection, suddenly finding him incredibly handsome. True beauty in the eyes of a lover.

Chen Tianlong was already handsome, now even more so.

"Cough cough cough... Miss Wan Li, I’ve agreed. Did you choose me?" Seeing Xiao Jianteng still lingering, Chen Tianlong asked urgently.

If they were acting, it had to be complete. They couldn’t stop halfway.

Jian Wanli, snapping back to reality, looked bashfully at Chen Tianlong, her face blushing, and said, "Of course... of course, I choose you. Is there a doubt?"

"Well, Xiao Jianteng, you heard it. Now Jian Wanli is my woman. You can leave. Don’t be an eyesore here," Chen Tianlong harshly stated. Judging from earlier actions, Xiao Jianteng didn’t dare to act.

"You..."

"Young master..."

His three subordinates immediately stopped Xiao Jianteng, already fuming. Thinking it over, he turned and left, heading deeper into the Hidden Sword Manor.

As night fell, the people in the garden didn’t decrease, as the lights started to illuminate, making it as bright as day.

Many were there for the evening lights, the place almost like daytime, offering various activities and excitement.

As Xiao Jianteng left, Chen Tianlong decisively prepared to go, but Jian Wanli suddenly called out, "Hey, where are you going? I’m your wife now, aren’t you taking me along?"

"Huh? Well... can’t you see I was rescuing you? Otherwise, that Xiao Jianteng would’ve kept pestering you, would you have gotten free then?" Chen Tianlong hastily explained.
