Chapter 2918: Looking To Marry, Miss?
“Number one…” She murmured while looking at him .
“What about Orchid Sage?” She then asked .
“Way better . ” Li Qiye chuckled .
“You’re definitely better at boasting . ” Jinning glared at him .
She didn’t actually expect him to reply earlier, hoping that it would shut him up or that he would admit his inferiority .
Who was Orchid Sage? An invincible progenitor on the same level as Luminous Master . All other scholars paled in comparison .
Thus, Li Qiye’s confident answer astounded her . Even the biggest braggart had his limits because overdoing it wouldn’t successfully convince anyone .
Alas, this guy made it sound as if Orchid Sage was just another random scholar .
She became frightened by his ridiculous audacity, not knowing whether he was telling the truth or not .
“Pa!” He interrupted her glare by gently flicking the tip of her nose .
“What are you doing?!” She instantly moved back and put on an offensive stance, looking quite mighty .
“Has anyone told you that your eyes are very pretty? Spirited and bright . ”
She became stunned again and didn’t know what was wrong with Li Qiye . Has he always been like this or did something go wrong in his brain just now?
They’re strangers yet he touched her nose as if they were very familiar .
“You must be ill right now . ” She became annoyed because he just took advantage of her and still acted nonchalant .
“You have a cure?” He said .
She glared at him and instinctively grabbed her sword, wanting to teach him a lesson . Unfortunately, she was under orders and didn’t have time .
He chose to ignore her exasperation .
She took a deep breath to calm down and aggressively said: “Do you know who Orchid Sage is? He’s a progenitor…”
“I know . ” Li Qiye said: “Just a progenitor, no need to tell me twice . Plus, we’re not talking about fighting here . In terms of literature, I’m numerous times better . If he’s a scholar sage, then I’m a scholar immortal . ”
Her jaw nearly dropped to the ground . This was her first time seeing someone so insanely full of himself .
“I can’t see it given your appearance . ” She eventually said with no intention of mocking him . It was simply the truth .
He looked too ordinary yet his words could scare people to death . He spoke as if he was the definite number one in all aspects .
“Can’t judge a book by its cover - this phrase is perfect to describe me . ” Li Qiye chuckled .
“You have a problem . ” She thought that he was asking for it by putting on this arrogant act .
“So many fools in this world . I’m telling the truth but they all think I’m bragging . Oh well, there’s nothing I can do about it . ” He shook his head in response .
Black lines started to form on her forehead . Her above-average patience started running thin as she felt the urge to give him a good beating .
His eyes, in particular, were infuriating . They seemed to be pitying her “lack of knowledge . ”
“You’re talking about me?” She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists .
“Take a deep breath and calm down, you can’t accomplish anything big if such a little thing can trigger you . How are you going to be a general? More like a foot soldier for the rest of your life . ” He leisurely said .
His pompous face became a frustrating sight to behold but he was right . He didn’t do anything to warrant a beating yet . If such a matter were to spread, it would be terrible for both her reputation and the legion’s .
She had no choice but to loosen her fists and take a deep breath .
“In spite of your flaws, I wouldn’t mind marrying someone like you . ” Li Qiye added .
“Why?” She immediately asked but regretted it right away . Ivory wouldn’t come out of a dog’s mouth .
“People from ancient times teach that a scholar can’t reason before a soldier but I’m the number one scholar, my literary skill is enough to deal with any uncouth and violent girl . That’s why I’m wondering if I should marry a soldier like you or not . ” He stroked his chin, seemingly contemplating while looking at her .
She nearly vomited blood after hearing this and entered a crazed state . He was making fun of her for being violent and crude .
She still had confidence in her looks despite not being a supreme beauty, definitely not a “brute” in the army or a violent shrew found in the markets .
“Say it again . ” Her fists were tightly clenched .
“Forget it, no one in this world is worthy of someone as talented as me . I guess I won’t be marrying then . ” Li Qiye waved his hand right before her explosion .
His sudden change of mind left her in a bind again . She wanted nothing more than to kick him down and stomp him several times .
“What’s your name?” She aggressively asked .
“Li Qiye . ” He answered with a wide smile . Though his appearance was mediocre at best, his teeth were perfectly straight and white .
“Don’t fall in love with me, I’m just a legend . ” Li Qiye said: “Trust me, hang around with me and you can’t help falling in love with me while not caring about anything else . ”
She was about to go crazy . He might be the most shameless egomaniac she has ever seen .
“Scram!” She eventually erupted, unable to hold back . Being around her more would end with her beating him up .
"You go your way and I go mine, there is plenty of room for both of us on the path towards the grand dao . Don’t tell me to scram . ” Li Qiye shrugged .
“Fine!” She trembled with rage before driving her chariot to get away from this man if he didn’t want to leave .
“Hey, why are you leaving so fast? Don’t you want to interrogate me some more? Maybe I’m up to no good?” Li Qiye shouted in the back .
“Shut up!” She didn’t turn back and kept on moving . At this moment, she believed that he was just a crazy egomaniac, not a villain or anything .
That’s why there was no point in infuriating herself any further by lingering around .
“What a shame, I really thought about marrying you earlier, you are giving up the chance to become a queen respected by all with a throne above the firmaments . ” His voice sounded in her ears .
She nearly fell from her chariot after hearing the last line .
