Chapter 382: 206: Public Humiliation, Ling Ao vomits blood!_4

Suo Lun spoke, then pointed straight at Gui Qinshu.

Suddenly, Gui Qinshu’s face turned deathly pale, as she underwent a drastic change.

At that moment, Ling Ao, who was in a loft above, fiercely unsheathed his sword and roared, "I’ll kill him!"

Having said that, he was about to rush down to tear Suo Lun into a thousand pieces.

This was his and Gui Qinshu’s engagement dinner, and yet Suo Lun had the audacity to humiliate him so blatantly, to slap him in the face like this.

"Hmm?" Zhi Li gave a cold hum and said, "I find this wager rather interesting, and it’s actually a good opportunity to kill Suo Lun. Deaths during a duel are very normal, and it would be perfectly justifiable."

At these words, Ling Ao’s face turned deathly white, and he nearly gritted his teeth until they bled.

"What? Are you not satisfied?" Zhi Li asked indifferently.

"Your servant, dare not!" Ling Ao bowed deeply and said.

"Then just watch the show from here." Zhi Li ordered.

"As you command." Ling Ao sheathed his sword and then retreated behind Zhi Li.

He was really forcing himself to endure the pain of almost vomiting blood, watching Suo Lun tease his fiancée, trampling on his pride.

...

At this moment, Gui Qinshu almost couldn’t believe her ears. Was Suo Lun truly humiliating her in public like this?

Instantly, her look toward Suo Lun was filled with sheer hatred as she said, "Suo Lun, may you die a horrid death. Ling Ao will definitely, definitely not let you go, and my father will never let you go either."

Suo Lun said, "So that’s a no to the second wager? Then I’m sorry, I won’t accept the duel."

Originally, Gui Qinshu’s feelings towards Suo Lun were very complicated; there was hatred, but also a strange affection, a kind of near-thrilling emotion.

After all, in her heart, Suo Lun was her first man.

But tonight, Ling Ao brought her immense glory, allowing her to suppress all those peculiar feelings for Suo Lun, fully enjoying the honor of being Ling Ao’s wife.

After Suo Lun appeared, she was very afraid that he would reveal her secret of lost virtue and destroy this honor.

Thus, she desperately wanted to drive Suo Lun away.

But now, Suo Lun was humiliating her in such a merciless manner.

Suddenly, Gui Qinshu’s heart was filled only with hatred, filled with the desire to tear Suo Lun into a thousand pieces.

"Ling Ao," Gui Qinshu called out, "come here, kill Suo Lun for me."

Ling Ao’s face twitched, as he really wanted to rush to Gui Qinshu’s side, to shield her from the storm, to kill Suo Lun for her.

But he couldn’t do that because His Highness Zhi Li wouldn’t allow it.

Seeing that Ling Ao didn’t appear, Gui Qinshu felt tremendously disappointed and angry. Wasn’t this man always proclaiming his love for her, his desire to protect her? Why now, when she was being so humiliated by someone else, he didn’t show up.

Then, she looked at Suo Lun with hate-filled eyes, took the wine, and began to gulp down two glasses, trying to drink herself into oblivion.

Suddenly, Gui Qinshu’s stunning face blushed, becoming even more enticingly charming and mesmerizing.

Not just the men present were captivated by her beauty, but even a glimpse of greed flickered in Zhi Li’s gaze.

The only one who was indifferent to her beauty was Tuli Yang. Three years ago, he fell in love with the nearly six-foot Turing Duo at first sight, and since then, his eyes could hold no other woman.

A little tipsy, Gui Qinshu, her breath scented with fragrance and alcohol, asked, "Tuli Yang, are you confident in killing Suo Lun?"

Tuli Yang said, "Confident, a hundred percent. I am a high-ranking sixth-grade Swordsman, my martial skills are more than ten times his—it’d be a piece of cake to kill him."

Gui Qinshu, looking at Suo Lun with a grinding of her teeth, said, "Fine, to see you dead, I’m willing to take the second wager. If you win, I’ll take off that thing of mine for you."

As soon as these words were said, Ling Ao really felt like passing out, like vomiting blood.

Humiliation, an extreme humiliation.

But all he could do was grit his teeth and endure it, because his sovereign Zhi Li was watching with great interest.

"Done," said Suo Lun. "Tuli Yang, I accept your challenge."

Next, the two signed their life and death contract under the scrutiny of countless eyes.

This meant that in the upcoming duel, life and death would be a matter of fate, and if Suo Lun died here, Zhi Li would hold no responsibility.

Then, the banquet hall’s delicious food, and all the tables and drinks were cleared away, transforming it into a dueling ground spanning thousands of square meters.

All the noble guests excitedly circled around, waiting for the thrilling duel to begin.

"Ding!" The sound of a bell signaled.

The duel began!
