So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

Chapter 308 Refusing to Cancel the Engagement

Finally, after a thrilling contest, Ling Jiuan successfully broke through Yu Lingxi's Shura Umbrella defense with a fierce sword move. The tip of the sword pointed directly at his throat, but he also retracted his force at the critical moment and did not hurt him at all.

This attack not only demonstrated Ling Jiuan's strength, but also his kindness and grace.

The Shura Umbrella shook violently at this blow, and the Shura pattern on the umbrella seemed unable to withstand this force. Faint cracks began to appear and it was almost broken.

Yu Lingxi's face was pale and her body was trembling slightly. She looked at the Shura Umbrella in her hand, then looked at Ling Jiuan in front of her, with a complicated light flashing in her eyes.

"I lost."

Yu Lingxi's voice was low and clear. She had never thought that she would be defeated so thoroughly in this fight.

She admitted that Ling Jiuan's strength and will were far beyond her expectations.

Ling Jiuan put away the Red Feather Sword and slowly walked in front of Yu Lingxi. There was no pride or arrogance in his eyes, only calmness and sincerity.

"Lingxi, in this fight, we are both trying to prove ourselves. You are strong, but I am not weak either. I hope that we can use this fight as an opportunity to become better versions of ourselves."

Upon hearing this, Yu Lingxi was silent for a moment, and finally nodded slightly.

She knew that Ling Jiuan's words were not empty words. This fight did make her see her own shortcomings and gave her a new understanding of Ling Jiuan.

"Thank you, Ling Jiuan."

There was a hint of gratitude in Yu Lingxi's voice.

"You made me understand that a truly strong person must not only have strength, but also an indomitable will and a broad mind. I will work hard to practice and look forward to the next battle with you."

After saying that, Yu Lingxi turned and left, her back looking particularly firm and resolute.

Ling Jiuan looked at her back, feeling an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

After witnessing this thrilling fight, the audience in the arena burst into warm applause and cheers.

Seeing how much Lei Tingyi cared about Ling Jiuan, Yu Lingxi couldn't help but feel an indescribable jealousy in his heart.

She bit her lower lip tightly, as if trying to suppress the gasp that was about to come out.

However, she knew she couldn't do anything inappropriate in public.

She glanced coldly at the two people on the ring, with a disdainful sneer on her lips.

She told herself that although Ling Jiuan won the fight, it did not mean that he had won Lei Tingyi's heart.

After all, matters of the heart are never determined by strength.

Thinking of this, Yu Lingxi turned around and was about to leave, but heard Ling Jiuan's voice behind him.

"Lingxi, thank you for your sparring with me today. Your Shura Umbrella has really benefited me a lot."

Yu Lingxi stopped, turned around and looked at Ling Jiuan, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

She didn't expect that Ling Jiuan would thank her at this time.

She was stunned for a moment, and finally snorted and answered in a cold voice.

"No need, I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do."

After saying that, Yu Lingxi left the arena without looking back, leaving behind only a determined back.

Ling Jiuan and Lei Tingyi smiled at each other, as if they didn't care about Yu Lingxi's attitude.

They know that everyone has their own knots and obsessions, and time is the best antidote.

When Yu Lingxi's figure gradually disappeared in the crowd, Jiuan's tense nerves finally relaxed.

She took a deep breath, trying to calm the surging blood in her body.

However, at this moment, a sudden feeling of dizziness came over her, her eyes went dark, she lost consciousness and passed out.

When Lei Tingyi saw this, his expression changed instantly.

He called out Ling Jiuan's name in horror, his voice filled with undisguised anxiety and panic.

"Jiuan! What's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"

He hurried forward, helped Jiuan steady himself, and carefully checked his physical condition.

Ling Jiuan looked pale and his breathing was weak, obviously because the previous battles and breakthroughs had consumed too much physical strength and energy.

Lei Tingyi was extremely anxious, as he knew very well that Ling Jiuan’s current situation was not optimistic.

He quickly took out a pill from his arms. This was a holy medicine for healing passed down in his family, and it had a magical effect on restoring physical strength and energy.

He carefully fed the pill into Ling Jiuan's mouth, then held his hand tightly and prayed for him silently.

The audience around was also frightened by this scene. They gathered around and asked about Ling Jiuan's condition with concern.

However, Lei Tingyi seemed not to hear their voices, and all his attention was focused on Ling Jiuan.

Time passed minute by minute, and Lei Tingyi's heartbeat rose and fell with Ling Jiuan's breathing.

Finally, amid everyone's anxious waiting, Ling Jiuan slowly opened his eyes.

She looked at the anxious Lei Tingyi in front of her, and a warm feeling surged in her heart.

She smiled, her voice faint but full of gratitude.

"Tingyi, I'm fine. Don't worry."

Upon hearing this, Lei Tingyi finally felt relieved.

He hugged Ling Jiuan tightly, as if he wanted to melt him into his arms.

He said with a choked voice.

"Jiuan, you scared me to death. You must rest well and don't let yourself get hurt again."

Ling Jiuan patted Lei Tingyi's back gently to comfort him.

"I will. Don't worry, I'll be fine with you here."

Just then, a middle-aged man in butler's clothes came over hurriedly. He was Lei's.

He looked solemn, holding a letter tightly in his hand, which was obviously urgent news he had just received.

"Young Master, the Patriarch of the Yu Family, Yu Lingyuan, sent a message saying that he...he is unwilling to cancel the engagement."

Uncle Zhong's voice trembled a little, and he was obviously surprised and worried about the news.

Hearing this, Lei Tingyi's expression instantly turned a little ugly.

He frowned, as if thinking about something.

He knew that this marriage was arranged by the elders of the two families in order to form an alliance to strengthen the strength of the two families.

But it was just a casual remark, and in the past few years, the Yu family even seemed to be unwilling to recognize it.

However, as his feelings for Ling Jiuan gradually deepened, he increasingly felt that this engagement became an obstacle between him and Ling Jiuan.

"Uncle Zhong, please go down first. I'll think of a solution."

Lei Tingyi's voice was low and firm. He knew that this problem had to be solved by him.

Uncle Zhong nodded, turned and left, leaving Lei Tingyi standing there alone, staring into the distance.

His heart was full of contradictions and struggles. On the one hand, he did not want to go against his family's wishes; on the other hand, he did not want to give up his relationship with Ling Jiuan.

At this moment, Ling Jiuan slowly walked to Lei Tingyi's side. He gently held Lei Tingyi's hand, and said in a gentle but firm voice, "Tingyi, no matter what happens, I will be with you. We will face it together and solve it together."

When Lei Tingyi heard this, a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He shook Ling Jiuan's hand in return.

"Jiuan, thank you. With you here, I'm not afraid of anything. We will definitely find a solution."
