Perhaps by saying it this way, Mu Qingqing could feel a little better in her heart.
Otherwise, recalling all the means Li Tianming used after his comeback, she felt extremely uncomfortable.
She just didn't show the disgust and deep fear in her heart.
Her life now was so wonderful, but she knew that Li Tianming, who knew the truth three years ago, was someone who could very likely destroy this happiness.
No one knew how intense the killing intent in her heart was.
The thunder dragon war spear that had flown over was now stuck at her feet. She knew this was a signal from Li Tianming.
This time, his return was not just to return to Yan City for cultivation.
That deep-seated enmity, when he regained his strength, she didn't believe Li Tianming would forget his hatred.
To be honest, Li Tianming's current strength didn't even give him a chance to compete with her, who had trained hard for three years in Tianfu.
She had surpassed him by too much.
But for some reason, his defeat of Lin Xiaoxiao and everything he did today still gave her a serious sense of crisis.
"I understand, Sister Qingqing. This battle won't defeat me, but one day, I will defeat him." Lin Xiaoxiao finally mustered the courage to say.
"Sure, I'll wait."
Just as Lin Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she found that the annoying guy had actually walked over to them.
And he seemed to have forgotten what happened three years ago, now grinning.
Now, as the first disciple watched by all, what was he doing here?
Showing off his victory?
Lin Xiaoxiao realized she was overthinking it because Li Tianming's expression was playful, his eyes slightly narrowed, looking at Mu Qingqing beside her.
It had been three years since he had been this close to her.
She indeed looked better and more mature than three years ago, with a more captivating womanly charm.
"What are you doing here? Defeating a child five years younger than you isn't something to boast about." Mu Qingqing said.
"Indeed, it's not worth boasting about, but I just wanted to see if you would still congratulate me like before." Li Tianming said.
Destroying someone and then saying, "I'm glad you can start over," if this were possible, Li Tianming would also be glad for her.
Mu Qingqing knew the sarcasm in his words.
"How can you be so ungrateful? Sister Qingqing was magnanimous to you, yet you come here to cause trouble. If my brother wasn't in seclusion, he would definitely beat you up."
Lin Xiaoxiao said indignantly.
She didn't know the truth, so she didn't know the story between them.
"You're overthinking it. I'm here to make friends with Qingqing again. I have indeed reformed."
"So, I came to ask where Qingqing lives in Tianfu. I'll visit you when I enter Tianfu." Li Tianming said.
"Maybe not, it's not appropriate. I can forgive you, but I don't want to have any more contact with you."
Mu Qingqing, suppressing her killing intent, still spoke in a gentle tone.
"Is that so? What a pity. I thought I could still compete with Lin Xiaoting." Li Tianming chuckled.
"A toad dreaming of eating a swan. Don't even think about it, or you'll just repeat your mistakes!" Lin Xiaoxiao was almost driven mad. How could there be such a shameless person in the world?
"Just go away. I don't think you can reform. Li Tianming, take care of yourself, and don't destroy yourself again."
Mu Qingqing found him very uncomfortable because Li Tianming's eyes were full of aggression.
His eyes seemed to pierce through her soul, seeing her fears.
Li Tianming knew what she was thinking. She wanted to maintain her current good life.
As the only one who could destroy everything, Li Tianming had already aroused her fear and killing intent.
"Qingqing, I'll remember your advice." Li Tianming said.
"Please don't call me that anymore, okay?" Mu Qingqing couldn't bear it anymore.
For her, entanglement with Li Tianming was a big taboo.
But why did she show a forgiving attitude like a lotus flower at the beginning?
"Then what should I call you? How about I give you a new name, 'Blood Flower,' what do you think?"
Li Tianming said these two words at the most unexpected moment!
Blood Flower!
The moment he said "Blood Flower," he clearly felt Mu Qingqing's pupils constrict.
This was the first reaction of a guilty person!
He understood her, so he was now 100% certain that the Blood Flower Hall assassin sent to kill him before the ranking battle was bought off by Mu Qingqing!
Everything made sense.
At that moment, Li Tianming didn't say anything more. He smiled, looking at Mu Qingqing with a playful expression.
Mu Qingqing also knew she had been seen through.
Hearing about his return, she immediately sent an assassin to kill him, sending Li Tianming to the brink of death!
What is true heartlessness?
What is true cruelty?
This is true heartlessness, this is true cruelty!
Three years ago, she set up a trap to take away everything from Li Tianming, severely wounding his heart and killing his sworn brother!
Three years later, as soon as Li Tianming returned, she hired an assassin to kill him without a second thought!
If it weren't for Xue Lan's interference, Li Tianming would have suspected her long ago.
Seeing her today, Li Tianming confirmed everything.
What a cruel heart!
So cruel!
But it didn't matter, it only made Li Tianming's resolve for revenge even stronger, making him see through her even more clearly!
Mu Qingqing, now exposed, knew that anything she said to Li Tianming was useless.
So, since it was already a matter of life and death, she only needed to maintain her image in front of everyone.
She pursed her lips and said to Lin Xiaoxiao, "Let's go. I'm very disappointed in him."
"Okay, Li Tianming, get lost and don't let me see you again." Lin Xiaoxiao said.
"Have a good walk."
As they turned to leave, Li Tianming said these four words.
These four words stuck in Mu Qingqing's ears, making her stop and her body tremble slightly.
"Take care of yourself."
This last sentence, Mu Qingqing no longer spoke with the previous holy attitude.
This sentence was a threat and a cold warning.
This was her warning to Li Tianming.
Even if he knew who hired the Blood Flower Hall, so what?
Powerful people can kill silently, can cover up the sky with one hand.
She now had the backing of the Thunder Venerable Mansion, while Li Tianming was still powerless and without influence, just like three years ago.
With this departure, both knew that the days ahead would be a matter of life and death.
One of them would die.
Of course, to maintain her image, Mu Qingqing still had to say in public that she was glad Li Tianming could reform...
"Brother."
At this moment, a soft and clear voice, like a silver bell, suddenly came from behind him.
This voice had a magical power, directly cleansing Li Tianming's heart, freeing him from his murderous intent.
Murderous intent should not be forgotten, but it should not be dwelled upon, or it would cloud the mind.
Li Tianming turned around and saw Jiang Feilin standing behind him.
To be honest, when he saw her pure and perfect face, he completely forgot about Mu Qingqing.
Perhaps in many people's hearts, Mu Qingqing was a lotus-like beauty, with few people able to surpass her charm.
But when compared to Jiang Feilin, she always seemed to have many flaws.
In Li Tianming's heart, Mu Qingqing was already a poison, while Jiang Feilin was a soothing nectar, even capable of detoxifying.
For three years, the word "love" had only made Li Tianming hesitate, and he even thought he would never have someone he liked again.
But her appearance changed Li Tianming's mind.
"Ling'er."
Li Tianming smiled.
This sunny and bright smile was completely different from the inner sneer he showed to Mu Qingqing.
"Congratulations, Brother, for becoming the first disciple. This is where Ling'er and Qing'er live in Tianfu. When you enter Tianfu, you must come and visit us."
Jiang Feilin placed a crumpled piece of paper in Li Tianming's hand, with a few neat characters written on it.
"Sure." Li Tianming carefully hid the paper.
"Brother, you did really well today." Jiang Feilin said.
"That's because Ling'er is here, giving me the courage to defeat my opponents." Li Tianming said seriously.
"Ugh!" The little yellow chicken flapped its wings, making a vomiting gesture.
"Yinghuo did well too, the phoenix of fire he spewed was beautiful." Jiang Feilin laughed.
"Really? Do you want to see more? Brother can perform it for me every day." The little yellow chicken instantly perked up.
"Shut up." Li Tianming pinched its beak, making it close its mouth.
The little yellow chicken's struggle was so silly that it made Jiang Feilin giggle.
"Brother, there's something I want to tell you." After laughing, she looked at Li Tianming very seriously.
Her large, bright eyes were like a clear lake.
"Okay, I'm listening." Li Tianming nodded.
"I already know a lot about what happened between you and them three years ago." Jiang Feilin lowered her head.
"So, does Ling'er look down on me?" Li Tianming asked.
"No." She shook her head and said, "I believe my eyes. When I was attached to Brother, I could hear your heartbeat, I could hear your inner voice."
"I could even see the most painful scene in your heart, I saw them bullying you."
Tears welled up in her eyes as she spoke.
Li Tianming's heart thundered. To be honest, he was very moved by the look in Jiang Feilin's eyes.
Because it had been three years.
Besides his mother, she was the first person to shed tears for his suffering.
Her tears were so real, each drop falling to the ground and into Li Tianming's heart.
At this moment, he really wanted to say something—
Thank heaven for bringing such a girl into his life.
Even if they were not lovers, just friends, Li Tianming was very happy.
Besides Wei Jing and his new companion beast, he could not find any other girl in the world who would shed tears for him.
The thunder in his heart was not a sign of heartbreak, but a sign of the greatest healing for his broken heart.
Meeting her, he had a sense of destiny.
He felt as if he had a premonition that she would appear in his life, even though they had met very few times.
But Li Tianming suddenly felt as if she had been with him for thousands of years.
"Brother, can I hug you?"
She looked up, her eyes shining.
