Chapter 186: Goddess Kneels to Another, Yu Tianheng Enraged to the Point of Losing His Mind
Ma Hongjun and the others’ chirping didn’t affect Dugu Yan at all.
She had already walked up to Lin Qingmo.
The arrogance on her Face had long vanished, replaced by an indescribable nervousness.
She bowed slightly to Lin Qingmo, her voice very low: "Can... can you come with me for a moment? I have something very important I want to tell you privately."
"?!"
Lin Qingmo looked up at her.
His gaze behind the mask lingered on her Face.
He didn’t say anything, just nodded slightly, stood up, and followed her deeper into the corridor.
"A-Qing!"
Xiao Wu quickly called out, lifting her foot to follow.
Lin Qingmo waved his hand, signaling her not to follow: "It’s fine, I’ll be right back. Wait for me here."
Xiao Wu’s foot paused.
Watching their backs disappear around the corridor corner, she still couldn’t help but glance a few more times.
The string in her heart was pulled taut, but she could only obediently stand still and wait.
...
At the end of the corridor.
Normally no one came here; it was so quiet that only the sound of two people’s footsteps could be heard.
Dugu Yan stopped and turned to FaceLin Qingmo.
Her fingers clutched the corner of her clothes, and she took several deep breaths, as if making a great decision.
The next second, her knees bent, and with a "thump," she knelt straight down on one knee before Lin Qingmo.
Her voice trembled uncontrollably as she clearly called out: "Dugu Yan pays respects to Young Lord!"
After shouting this, even she herself let out a sigh of relief.
Grandpa said that this Lin Qingmo was a Young Lord whom even he had to treat with utmost respect, with an unimaginable noble status.
She absolutely couldn’t show any neglect or offend him when she saw him.
Now she had done as instructed.
"Hmm?"
Lin Qingmo was also stunned.
He really didn’t expect to be recognized.
He raised his hand and took off his mask, revealing that handsome Face.
Sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes, a high nose bridge, and sharp lips—in short, a Face so good-looking that people wanted to take a second glance, completely different from the cold feeling he exuded when wearing the mask before.
He carried a youthful sharpness, yet was uncharacteristically steady.
He looked at Dugu Yan kneeling on the ground, his brow slightly raised, his tone a little surprised: "You know me?"
Dugu Yan instinctively looked up.
Her gaze met his deep eyes, and seeing his Face clearly, she was instantly stunned.
Before, she had only seen Lin Qingmo wearing a mask in the arena.
She only knew that his strength was incredibly formidable, and even Yu Tianheng was no match for him.
But she had never imagined that he would look like this beneath the mask.
However, she only froze for a moment, quickly recovered, and lowered her head again.
Her tone became even more respectful: "Reporting to Young Lord, my Grandpa told me."
"Grandpa said that your status is noble, and that when I see you outside, I must be utterly respectful and not show any disrespect."
"Before, in the arena, I didn’t dare to rashly acknowledge you, fearing I might cause you trouble."
"So it was Dugu Bo, that old fellow."
Lin Qingmo raised an eyebrow, his tone showing no surprise.
He took a step forward and reached out to support Dugu Yan’s arm.
He said calmly: "Get up. There’s no need for these formalities outside; it’s troublesome if others see us."
His fingers had just touched Dugu Yan’s arm, about to help her up.
Suddenly, a deafening roar came from behind him: "Azure Star! What the hell are you doing?!"
Lin Qingmo and Dugu Yan turned their heads simultaneously.
They saw Yu Tianheng standing at the corridor entrance, his eyes bloodshot.
His Blue Lightning Tyrant DragonSpirit had already possessed him, purple lightning crackling. Scales spread from his neck, and he looked like an enraged beast.
He had followed them earlier and saw Dugu Yan calling Lin Qingmo away alone, so a fire had been brewing in his heart.
So, he secretly followed them again.
As soon as he reached the corner, he saw Dugu Yan kneeling before Lin Qingmo, and Lin Qingmo even reaching out to help her up.
They were so close; in his eyes, this was clearly an extremely intimate scene!
He was already upset from losing to Lin Qingmo before.
And he had liked Dugu Yan for so long.
Seeing the girl he longed for being so humble towards another man.
How could he endure it?
"I knew Yanzi had been ignoring me lately; turns out you, you pretty boy, seduced her!"
Yu Tianheng’s teeth ground together, and his spirit power instantly surged to its peak.
"Azure Star! I’m going to cripple you today!"
Rage had clouded his mind.
As soon as his words fell, he stomped his foot fiercely.
He shot out like a purple lightning bolt, carrying violent lightning power, and punched fiercely towards Lin Qingmo’s Face.
The force of the punch carried a piercing whoosh, clearly using full strength without any reservation.
"Yu Tianheng, you!"
Dugu Yan’s expression changed, and she was about to scold him.
She saw Lin Qingmo, without even activating his Spirit, simply shift his body slightly, easily dodging Yu Tianheng’s determined punch.
Immediately after, he raised his leg.
His movement was clean and sharp, without any fancy embellishments, and he solidly kicked Yu Tianheng in the stomach.
"Bang!"
With a muffled thud.
Yu Tianheng flew backward like a broken sack, slamming heavily into the wall behind him.
"Boom!"
Another loud crash, and cracks appeared in the wall.
Yu Tianheng slid down the wall, spitting fresh blood, his head slumped, and he instantly fainted.
He didn’t even let out a whimper.
Lin Qingmo retracted his leg and patted the non-existent dust from his pant leg.
His Face showed no ripple of emotion, as if he had just casually flicked away a fly.
He asked calmly: "You just saw it, he attacked me first. I knocked him out, no problem, right?"
Dugu Yan quickly shook her head, her Face full of disdain.
She didn’t even glance at the unconscious Yu Tianheng on the ground.
"He’s nothing to me, just a self-important fool. If you hit him, you hit him. Young Lord, you don’t need to worry about it."
She had never had any feelings for Yu Tianheng to begin with.
Now, Yu Tianheng actually dared to attack the Young Lord.
Not crippling him completely was already giving Face to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
The loud crash against the wall just now was particularly jarring in the quiet backstage corridor.
It startled the people nearby.
"What was that sound?"
"It sounds like it came from the end of the corridor!"
Xiao Wu was the first to react, immediately rushing out and running towards the direction of the sound.
She was very anxious, fearing that Lin Qingmo might have gotten into trouble or been ambushed.
Following closely were the rest of Shrek, and Qin Ming Qin Ming, who had also heard the commotion.
The group rushed to the end of the corridor and were all stunned by the scene before them.
Yu Tianheng lay unconscious on the ground, blood still on the corner of his mouth, his Face pale.
Lin Qingmo stood still, his mask already back on.
Dugu Yan stood beside him, not far away, both appearing unharmed.
"Tianheng!"
Qin Ming Qin Ming’s Face changed drastically, and he dashed over.
He quickly reached out to check Yu Tianheng’s breath and felt his pulse.
His fingertips touched the indentation on his chest, and his Face instantly turned extremely grim.
Not only was Yu Tianheng unconscious, but several of his ribs were broken, and his internal organs were severely damaged; he had clearly been dealt a heavy blow.
He suddenly looked up at Lin Qingmo, his eyes filled with disbelief and anger.
"What did you do to Tianheng? Yanzi, tell me what happened?"
And Yu Xiaogang, upon seeing the unconscious Yu Tianheng on the ground, his Face immediately darkened.
Yu Tianheng was a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, his own nephew.
Now he had been beaten like this, lying on the ground unconscious!
