Chapter 229: Would Master Yao’s Woman be Just A Pretty Face?
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Lu He finally understood why Master Yao seemed unconcerned this morning when he told him to bring Miss Ning Sheng over, not worried about her getting hurt. He must have known about this all along.
After the match, everyone’s attitude towards Ning Sheng changed.
“Miss Ning Sheng, it seems like you’ll be joining the advanced trainees,” Lu Cheng spoke up.
Ning Sheng nodded, “I think it’s quite fun here.”
Sometimes, she truly thought that Lu Chu Yao understood her very well.
“Miss Ning Sheng, would you like to spar with Lu He?” Lu Cheng asked.
In theory, Ning Sheng would be in no position to best Lu He at her current level, but he didn’t know whether Lu He’s abilities had declined during his time away—it was better to test it out first.
Lu He immediately waved his hand, “I can’t!”
He was aware of his own strength. He had defeated the three older brothers back when he’d completed his training in the camp. It was that terrifying gift of his which had prompted Master Yao to appoint him as both driver and bodyguard for Miss Ning Sheng. If he couldn’t control himself during the fight, this would end disastrously.
“Xiao He, are you scared?” Ning Sheng asked.
Lu He nodded, “1 don’t hold back when I fight others.”
He felt like Lu Cheng was setting him up. After all, Lu Cheng knew his strength, but he still made him do this. If there was any way he ended up harming Miss Ning Sheng, he’d really have to go back to the F continent and compensate with his life.
Lu Cheng laughed, “Don’t worry, it’s just practice.”
Lu He rolled his eyes, “Are you jealous that I’m living a good life and want me to die??”
Lu Cheng replied, “…How did you know??”
And anyway, they had to see Miss Ning Sheng’s strength before they could start training, right?
“Xiao He, go easy on me,” Ning Sheng spoke up.
In fact, Ning Sheng was not aware of Lu He’s strength, but judging from Lu Chu Yao’s trust in Lu He, Lu He’s strength must be quite high. Moreover, his brother, Lu Cheng, was the vice commander here, which gave her a fair idea of their capabilities.
“Wait, 1 have a question. If we have Lu Qi, Lu Cheng, and you’re Lu He, do we also have a Lu Zhuan?”
Qi Cheng Zhuan He (Beginning, development, climax, and conclusion).
“Yes, Brother Zhuan is probably sunbathing in the F continent,” Lu He replied.
Lu Zhuan despised the training camp and never cared much about training.
He was the weakest in terms of combat among the four.
Somewhere else.
Lu Qi was a little worried, “Master, aren’t you going to stop this? Xiao He is really strong.”
Lu Cheng clearly just wanted to watch the show and pick on Lu He, who was straightforward. If Ning Sheng and Lu He ended up getting injured during their sparring, he was a bit scared to think about the consequences. Lu He might cry.
Lu Chu Yao retorted, “Do you think my woman would just be a pretty face?”
Lu Qi replied, “…No.”
But that man is Lu He!! Even he couldn’t beat him in combat!
The duel began, and Ning Sheng was fully focused while Lu He seemed a bit distracted.
Ning Sheng kept initiating attacks, but Lu He kept dodging for fear of hurting her.
“Xiao He, do you think I’m unworthy of being your opponent?”
Ning Sheng asked, confused about his constant evasion.
Lu He shook his head, “No.”
“In that case, show me your strength. Even if I lose, I won’t be angry. You don’t have to worry.” Ning Sheng assured Lu He.
“Okay,” Lu He nodded.
However, in a split second, Ning Sheng didn’t even see how Lu He made his move…
And she lost.
This was the result even with Lu He holding back..
