Dongfang Liren took a deep breath and said solemnly, “Ye Jingtang, do you have any evil intentions toward me?”

When Ye Jingtang heard this, he became more serious. “Your Highness cares about me so much. How can 1 have any evil intentions?”

“You have offended me repeatedly. At first, there were reasons, but recently, you can’t even be bothered to find excuses. But you’re saying that you have no evil intentions?”

“This is mutual love. What does it have to do with anything evil?”

Mutual love? Dongfang Liren turned around and sat on her side. She faced Ye Jingtang with a rather displeased gaze. “Who is in love with you?”

“…” Ye Jingtang stopped talking about this well-known topic. Instead, he said, “I figured out the teaching method of the Eight-Steps Frenzied Blade yesterday. I have nothing to do on the way back. Shall I teach Your Highness the saber technique?”

Dongfang Liren frowned. “Don’t change the topic. I’ll learn the saber technique later. Let me make things clear to you first. I appreciate your talent, so I’m more tolerant of you. 1 can ignore what you do in private, but on the surface, the imperial power cannot be offended…”

“When have 1 offended Your Highness publically?”

Dongfang Liren thought for a moment and found that Ye Jingtang didn’t seem to have offended her publically, so she added, “Even in private, you have to remember the difference between a ruler and a subject. Only when I say yes can you not abide by the rules. If I say no, you can’t be rude. If 1 say no and you force it… Hmph!”

She couldn’t do anything to Ye Jingtang, so she let him guess the consequences himself.

Ye Jingtang chuckled and stood up. “1 know. Practicing martial arts is like sailing against the current. As long as I’m free, I’ll practice martial arts and qi. Your Highness, it’s a waste of your talent to practice at a fixed time every day. If you practice diligently every day, you’ll be a Grandmaster who has dabbled in All Schools of Thought.”

Dongfang Liren found that the scolding didn’t work, so she didn’t say anything else. She slowly got up and stood in the rather spacious carriage. “The sparring instructors in the palace are afraid that I will be angry, so they are always respectful. No matter how good or bad I am, they will praise me. How can 1 practice true martial arts like this? If I had a strict master like you, who would beat me with a stick if 1 made a mistake until I remembered it, I would definitely learn very quickly.

“When you teach me martial arts in the future, don’t have the mentality that I’m learning for fun. You must teach me to become an expert seriously. Don’t restrain yourself when you need to hit me.”

How could Ye Jingtang hit Dumdum? He thought for a moment and smiled. “Practicing martial arts is hard work. I’ll teach you slowly, and you’ll remember everything over time. However, if Your Highness makes a mistake, I’ll use my hands to correct you. If Your Highness doesn’t want to be offended, practice well. This way, there’s no reason for me to take advantage of you.”

Dongfang Liren didn’t refuse. She assumed the starting stance of the Overlord Spear. “I have been practicing this move for a month. Look, are there any problems now?”

Ye Jingtang sized up the proud and cold princess and nodded slightly. Then he leaned back, placed his hand under the fat-headed dragon, and rubbed it upward a little.

?!

Dongfang Liren’s vitals were held, and she took a light breath. “There’s no problem with me, but you’re still doing it?”

“If I don’t touch you, how will I know if you’re exerting strength correctly? Your Highness’s chest is too tight. You should lower your shoulders naturally and raise your strength from the ground. Use your waist and back to exert strength, not your arms…”

Dongfang Liren blushed a little, but she still listened to his instructions. She relaxed her shoulders and tightened her waist.

Ye Jingtang held Dumdum’s slender waist with both hands and swayed her back and forth. This time, she stood quite steadily. Her body didn’t sway at all. She was like a wooden stake with her feet stuck in the ground. “Not bad, this feeling is right. Your Highness is really smart.”

Dongfang Liren blinked. She actually felt happy to be praised by him, but she still maintained a serious expression.

Ye Jingtang walked around and came in front of Dongfang Liren. He found that Dongfang Liren’s gaze was a little evasive, so he corrected her. “The eyes are windows. Even an ordinary person can see your timidity, nervousness, attack intent, and so on from your eyes. No matter what personality the experts of Jianghu have, when they really fight, they are sharp-edged, but their hearts are like stagnant water. You can only feel pressure when you look at their eyes, but you can’t see any flaws. Your Highness, look at me.”

Dongfang Liren’s gaze shifted. She exuded the aura of a princess and looked straight into Ye Jingtang’s eyes fiercely.

Ye Jingtang shook his head. “You’re being fierce. You look fierce, but you’re actually too forceful. It will make people realize that they don’t have enough confidence. Hmm… Do you know Daoist Xuanji’s gaze? It looks very gentle and charming, but it always gives people a dangerous feeling of ‘I have a hundred ways to deal with you’. It’s a very powerful gaze that makes people not dare to offend her easily.”

Dongfang Liren frowned. “My master really has a hundred ways to deal with you, so there’s naturally no need to pretend. I can’t deal with you, so how can I be fierce?”

Ye Jingtang said, “Your Highness doesn’t have to use force to deal with me. Hmm… This is what Your Highness should think: No matter how good your martial arts are, you won’t dare to touch a single finger of mine. And it’s easy for me to deal with you. As long as you satisfy me, I’ll let you kiss and touch me. If you don’t satisfy me, 1 won’t let you touch me. You must listen to my orders obediently…”

??

Dongfang Liren frowned slightly. “In your dreams.”

Ye Jingtang spread his hands helplessly. “It’s not that 1 think so, but it’s what Your Highness should think in your mind. This is the way to deal with me. Once you have a method in your mind, even if you don’t use it, you will have confidence. And naturally, you won’t be afraid of your opponent. This confidence will show in your eyes.”
