Although it is the interstellar era now, the tradition of duel has been preserved. For the powerful imperial nobles, when there are irreconcilable contradictions, duel is their ultimate means to resolve conflicts and defend honor.

The duel initiated by the nobles is of serious nature and protected by imperial laws. Once it begins, it cannot be easily ended. It is extremely sacred.

Moreover, every duel will be broadcast live on the entire network and attract the attention of the people of the entire empire.

Therefore, although this tradition is preserved, if it is not a deep hatred, the nobles will never initiate duels easily, because if they lose, they will be discredited at the least, and they will lose their lives at the worst.

Even for the noble nobles, it is a battle of reputation and life, and it is a big deal.

With Ji Ling's noble status and... a bad reputation, he is a commoner to challenge a civilian, and is also a civilian idol with the title of Star of Tomorrow. The shocking effect caused on the Internet is no less than a level ten tsunami! First of all, he bullies the small by bullying the small by the big, and secondly, he is a humiliation in his own strength. He also thinks about the previous scandal between Jing Sui and Ning Yu. The love, hate and affection behind this have been made up for hundreds of thousands of words. The process is tortuous and full of drama, and it is simply a topic. The traffic and topics are constantly refreshing at every moment.

Ji Ling didn't care about that. He finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Ning Yu's reply. He turned off the Internet, ignored the uproar outside at all, and happily prepared to go up and deliver the food.

But Ji Ling doesn't care about the words outside, which does not mean that the people around him don't care.

The first one I found was his parents.

As soon as Mrs. Marina entered the door, she said anxiously: "Baby, what are you doing?"

Grand Duke Ji Ting looked solemn and said in a deep voice: "Xiao Ling, you are too impulsive."

Ji Ling lowered his head and said nothing. In fact, no matter what the original owner is, at least his parents really love him. Although he is just following the original book, he still feels guilty when he sees such a father and mother.

Doing this yourself will not hurt anyone, the only ones that will hurt are probably the father and mother.

Mrs. Marina looked at her son's dejected look and felt extremely distressed. She had a look of worry in her beautiful eyes and said to her husband: "You are so serious that you scared your baby!"

Grand Duke Ji Ting's expression was ugly. For the first time, he did not follow his wife's words, but accused him in a deep voice: "It was you who spoiled him that you did so incompetent."

Mrs. Marina glared at him in dissatisfaction: "Why don't you say that the pariah is too arrogant? What do he want to do? Why do you agree to the duel? Do you want to step on our baby's reputation? I think he is ambitious!"

Grand Duke Ji Ting was very helpless and said, "It was Xiao Ling who openly provoked first. If he didn't agree, others would say he was afraid."

Mrs. Marina was even more angry: "I don't care, you'll tell me what to do now!"

Grand Duke Ji Ting pressed his forehead and was also very distressed. It was absolutely impossible for his son to beat Ning Yu, but it was also embarrassing to avoid fighting.

Things are so difficult to end.

After all, this is not any other trivial matter that can be suppressed by power, but a sacred and fair duel! Even if he is powerful and powerful as the great duke, he has no right to stop it.

Ji Ling looked at his frowning father and mother, was silent for a while, and looked up and said with a persistent look: "I'm sorry, mom and dad, you have worried... But no matter whether it's losing or losing, I want to solve the problem face to face with him. Please forgive my willfulness."

Although he felt guilty, he had to do this.

Grand Duke Ji Ting and Mrs. Marina looked at him silently. Finally, Mrs. Marina sighed and said, "Don't worry, mom won't let you have something to do."

What can they do if their son is so persistent? What they are most worried about is Ji Ling's life safety, not whether his behavior will embarrass the Ji family. This is their dear, and he was reluctant to leave him and was hurt a little.

As long as Ji Ling can come back well, the rest can only be with him.

Ji Ling almost swears to promise that he will be careful. He talked for a long time before sending his father and mother away. He let out a heavy sigh and looked at the direction of the door in a daze.

Ji Ling: [System, you said, what will they do if I go home one day...]

System: [I think you think a little bit too much.]

Ji Ling:【?】

System: [As long as you can complete the task and bring the world back on track, everything is easy to say, and there will always be a way to do anything, but... are you sure to complete the task?]

@Infinite good articles, all in Jinjiang Literature City

Ji Ling:【…】

He was unable to think about what he wanted to express his worries with this system of not opening the pot :)

……………………

The duel was set in three days, but Ji Ling was destined to not spend these three days quietly.

Early the next morning, Ji Ling welcomed Wen Yan who came to persuade him.

Ji Ling was a little surprised. Wen Yan had never persuaded him about this in his previous life. This villain was the most insidious and cunning. He could only speak according to his own thoughts. He looked at his own jokes with schadenfreshness on the surface. He had never persuaded him at the risk of being disgusted or disliked?

But this time Wen Yan came.

Wen Yan walked in. He was wearing a black robe, with long silver hair tied behind his head, and there was a complicated emotion in his black eyes, saying, "Do you really want to duel with Ning Yu?"

Ji Ling's character will never collapse, and nodded vigorously and said, "Yes!"

Wen Yan looked at the boy's persistent eyes, a stubborn tone, but his mood was extremely heavy. Thinking of everything that happened in his previous life, he didn't want Ji Ling to duel with Ning Yu no matter what, it was just a humiliation, but... Ji Ling still came to this point.

Some things are inevitable, and even if you are reborn, you cannot stop them.

Thinking of this, Wen Yan felt a strong resentment and dissatisfaction with Jing Sui. The boy loved you like this. Why can't you just worry about his mood and want to force him to this point?

He clenched his right hand, and after a while, he took out a box from his arms, bent down and opened it respectfully in front of Ji Ling.

Ji Ling took a puzzled look and found a purple grass inside, with crystal-like leaves very beautiful.

Wen Yan opened his thin lips slightly and said slowly respectfully: "This is a herb grown in the earth fire flow of Ressa Star. As long as you take it, even a powerful evolver will have the illusion of being terminally ill. No instrument can detect it. It itself has no harm to the human body. The effect will naturally disappear after two months."

Ji Ling looked at Wen Yan in confusion. After a few seconds, he realized that he wanted to stop him from duel with Ning Yu! He immediately showed an angry expression and shouted: "What do you mean? You asked me to pretend to be sick and avoid the battle?!"

Wen Yan looked at Ji Ling's angry expression. Although he knew that his next words might make the boy even more angry, he still raised his eyes and stared at him, saying, "If you use this, you have a suitable reason to postpone the duel. When things cool down, I naturally have a way to let the matter go to nothing."

Ji Ling waved his hand and knocked the box in Wen Yan to the ground. Anger seemed to be burning in his eyes. He stared at him and said loudly: "Do you look down on me? Do you also think I am not as good as that untouchable?"

Wen Yan watched the herbs he had carefully prepared roll onto the ground, and then looked up at the boy's stubborn and unyielding appearance. He had a deep bitterness in his eyes and said slowly: "I don't mean this, I just..."

Ji Ling was afraid that he would continue to say more, and shouted angrily: "Get out, get out of here!"

As he said that, he pushed Wen Yan out hard and closed the door with a slam.

Don't even think about destroying my plan!

No one can stop me from delivering food!

After closing the door, he carefully stole the gap and found that Wen Yan was still standing outside and refused to leave. His face was solemn, and there was a complex look of worry and helplessness in his narrow phoenix eyes.

Tsk, it looks like you really care about me.

Assume that you are reborn, don’t think I will believe you. You guy had ulterior motives in your previous life, full of bad water, and you are not ruthless when you get into trouble. Moreover, I hurt your self-esteem like this and treat you like a servant. What reason do you have to care about me? Even if you are reborn, you will only hate me even more, right?

Wait... This guy wouldn't he want to trick him into eating poisonous weeds in order to revenge himself?

It's getting more and more vicious!

Ji Ling looked at the herbs on the ground with lingering fear, took a tissue and carefully picked it up with two fingers through it, and quickly threw it into the trash can. Then he ignored Wen Yan and continued to sleep.

……………………

Ji Ling woke up in the afternoon. When he got up, he saw Wen Yan finally left, but before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the servant come hurriedly over and report: "Master, Marshal Brandon is here."

The servant looked frightened and his steps were in a hurry. As soon as he finished speaking, Ji Ling saw Brandon walking like the wind and strides. The tall and burly man looked cold and his cold expression seemed to be on a solemn battlefield. No wonder the servant was frightened.

Ji Ling stood up suddenly and showed an unexpected look. How could Brandon come to see him at his house? He has no friendship with him!

This is a bit unreasonable.

Brandon stood in front of Ji Ling, his eyes were extremely complicated, and he looked at the boy in front of him with concentration. After all, he still didn't listen to his advice to challenge Ning Yu. Can't he stop him? Brandon opened his mouth and made a low and stern voice: "You want to duel with Ning Yu."

Ji Ling suppressed the surprise in his heart, looked at him with his head raised and his chest raised, raised his eyebrows and said, "So what?"

Brandon had countless words of dissuasion in his heart, but he knew that Ji Ling would not listen to him. In the end, only one sentence was left: "Then it would be a battle openly and it would be okay if he lost."

Ji Ling thought in his heart that how could he show my despicable and viciousness? How could he show off Ning Yu's extraordinary bravery? He sneered sarcastically: "You look down on your good subordinates very much. You are so sure that he can beat me."

Brandon looked helpless. He had long been used to Ji Ling's style of speaking. In fact, the boy was just jealous, so he didn't care about his left ear and his right ear. He slowly said, "I will stand on your side."

Ji Ling snorted: "I think you want to see my joke!"

Brandon shook his head, "No."

Ji Ling looked disbelief, and after a verbal battle, he finally beat Brandon away.

He looked at Brandon's back as he left, but he didn't relax, because maybe Carlos would come when, and didn't this old fox always pretend to care about him?

Ji Ling waited nervously and kept thinking about how to deal with Carlos later, but Carlos didn't come...

……………………

Duke's Mansion.

Carlos sat in the study, holding a black cover book in his hand. It was the one that Ji Ling had lived in his home before and often read. However, if he looked closely, he knew that his eyes did not fall on the book, and his eyes were filled with a dark and gloomy look.

In fact, he received news as soon as Ji Ling challenged Ning Yu, but he did not go to see Ji Ling.

Because he knew very well that Ji Ling would not change his mind.

The boy seems weak, willful, arrogant... In fact, he is more persistent and firm than anyone else in his heart. Therefore, he can love someone so much without regrets, right?

Sometimes Carlos thought that it might be a good thing if the boy's heart could be more fickle.

It’s a pity that the boy has the most unchanging heart.

I am so envious of myself, but I feel powerless and painful for it.

Anderson stood beside his head, breathing lightly, fearing that he would disturb the contemplative Duke.

After a long time, Carlos slowly put down the book in his hand, and a cold look in his brown pupils swept past, his voice was low, and he slowly spoke: "Kill Ning Yu, remember to do it clean."

Since the young man cannot be stopped, as long as Ning Yu is killed, the problem will naturally be solved.
To be continued...
