Bi Linglong trembled with anger. "How dare you! You actually dare to harbor such thoughts about me."
Gu Xing rolled his eyes. "Linglong, you won't be the Crown Princess for much longer, so why put on airs with us? Honestly, wouldn't it be better to be with us than with that pig-headed Zhao Ruizhi? That guy is an absolute imbecile; I bet he hasn't even let you experience a woman's pleasure, has he?"
Bi Linglong's expression darkened. "It seems you are truly confident of victory now, to speak such obscenities to me!"
Gu Heng shot his brother a glare. "Second Brother, Linglong is our sister, after all; we grew up together. Be more polite to her."
Gu Xing sneered. "Big Brother, what's the point of acting like a gentleman here? From what I've observed recently, Linglong clearly has a special liking for that Zu An. That guy is a hooligan from the streets; he's nothing like a gentleman."
"It seems Linglong prefers the hooligan type. Come to think of it, my personality is more similar to Zu An's. Big Brother, you don't stand a chance."
Gu Heng instantly became anxious. "Nonsense! Linglong has always preferred proper, modest gentlemen. We grew up together; don't I know her heart? How could she like a hooligan like that?"
Bi Linglong snorted. "Gu Xing, you compare yourself to Zu An? Are you even worthy?"
In truth, she was also a bit puzzled. Indeed, as Gu Heng said, she preferred dignified and steady young masters from prominent families. She used to detest street ruffians like Zu An. So why had she suddenly started seeing him in a different light?
Hearing her rebuke, Gu Xing's expression turned cold. "Who does Zu An think he is? His cultivation is inferior to mine, his family background is inferior to mine, even his looks are inferior to mine. It's more like, what right does *he* have to compare himself to me?"
Bi Linglong chuckled. "I never realized before that you, of all people, are so ordinary yet so strangely confident."
Gu Xing was furious. Gu Heng quickly restrained him, then looked at Bi Linglong. "No matter how good Zu An is, you personally drove him away. Talking about him is meaningless now. Just pick one of us brothers as soon as possible."
He was now more convinced than ever that his brother had just lost a lot of favor with Bi Linglong, and thus his own advantage was growing significantly.
"Alright, I choose Gu Xing," Bi Linglong said.
"What?" Although her voice was soft, it struck his ears like a bolt from the blue.
Gu Xing, however, was ecstatic. "Haha, Linglong, I knew you loved me!"
As he spoke, he moved to embrace her, but Gu Heng stopped him.
Gu Xing frowned. "Big Brother, you must accept your loss. What do you mean by this?"
Gu Heng said, "Don't you think she chose too readily? From our interactions recently, and the way she just spoke to you, do you really think she likes you?"
"What does it matter if she likes me or not? All I need is her body," Gu Xing said indifferently.
Bi Linglong: "..."
Gu Heng: "???"
Gu Xing gave a wicked smile and continued, "Besides, if we do *that* a few times, she might just fall in love with me. Women never forget their first man. According to gossip from the palace, Linglong should still be a virgin, right?"
Bi Linglong turned her face away, her cheeks slightly flushed, looking shy, clearly unwilling to answer such a private question.
Gu Heng, at this moment, was consumed by jealousy. It was one thing when they both secretly admired her; at least then no one could have her, and they could console each other. But now, he watched helplessly as his brother was about to claim the beauty, while he would get nothing.
The key was that just a second ago, he was so confident, but the next second, she chose his brother. The drastic fall from the clouds to the dust made him feel so terrible he nearly wanted to vomit blood.
"Big Brother, get out of the way!" Gu Xing grew impatient.
Gu Heng remained motionless. "I finally understand. Linglong deliberately chose you to make us fight among ourselves, even kill each other, so she could find a chance to escape."
Bi Linglong said calmly, "You were the ones who told me to choose. Now that I've chosen you, you're saying this. Does that mean if I had chosen you, it wouldn't be considered instigation?"
She was indeed using the opportunity to deliberately sow discord between the brothers. If it were anyone else, they would likely have chosen Gu Heng, thinking Gu Xing was impulsive and thus easier to manipulate into fighting.
But Bi Linglong knew very well that if she chose Gu Heng, Gu Xing, that reckless oaf, couldn't think as fast as his brother and certainly couldn't out-argue him. Furthermore, his cultivation was slightly inferior, so he would be completely dominated by his older brother.
But by choosing Gu Xing, Gu Heng, who had the most cunning ideas, would always find various grand excuses to stop his brother. And after pretending to be a gentleman for so many years, suppressing his true nature, once he exploded, he would be even more uncontrollable.
Facts proved her choice was correct. The two brothers' gazes were now sparking fire.
Gu Xing chimed in, "Exactly! Does it *have* to be you? Hurry up and move! Please Big Brother, go stand guard for us outside."
Gu Heng heard himself being told to stand guard at the door, to listen to other men 'gallop' on his beloved. He finally exploded. "Idiot! Can't you see through such a simple ploy to sow discord?!"
"I don't care if it's a ploy or not! She chose me, after all! Now get out of the way!" Gu Xing grew impatient as well, directly drawing his saber.
This seemed to light the fuse. Gu Heng roared, drew his own weapon, and charged forward. The two instantly exchanged dozens of blows. Although his cultivation was slightly superior to his brother's, it would be impossible to determine a winner without two or three hundred more moves.
Bi Linglong's heart also tensed up. She was certainly not worried about the two men's safety, but rather looking for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow.
Suddenly, after exchanging a palm strike, they separated. Gu Heng immediately said, "Stop! Fighting like this is not going to work. We'll both end up injured. And Linglong is also a sixth-rank practitioner; if only one of us is left, we won't be able to control her."
Gu Xing was no fool. Moreover, he knew that if they truly fought, he might not be his brother's match. "So, what do you suggest?"
Gu Heng glanced at Bi Linglong, and quickly had an idea. "We are brothers born of the same mother. Many things have been shared between us since childhood, so naturally, women can be no exception."
Gu Xing's expression fluctuated, then after a long pause, he nodded. "Alright!"
Bi Linglong: "???"
She never expected that such shameless individuals existed in the world, and there were two of them!
At this, Gu Heng stepped forward and said, "Since that's the case, as the elder brother, I'll go first."
"No, that's not right. She chose me just now, so she should belong to me. Letting you have a share is already the biggest concession. I must be the first," Gu Xing refused to yield an inch.
Gu Heng remained silent. Seeing that the two were about to argue again, he suggested, "How about... together?"
Gu Xing's heart stirred. "Alright!"
"Shameless!" Bi Linglong could no longer bear it. She directly drew her personal sword and thrust it towards the two men's vital points.
However, it was easily blocked by the two. Gu Heng no longer concealed the lust in his eyes. He laughed loudly. "Linglong, you've only just broken through to the sixth-rank. We've been at the sixth-rank for many years. How could you be our opponent? Just obediently give in to us; we will cherish you well."
A flicker of disgust flashed in Bi Linglong's eyes. "Disgusting!"
She said nothing more, but focused entirely on dealing with her opponents. Unfortunately, her cultivation was inherently inferior to theirs, and now that she was being attacked two-on-one, her sword was soon knocked from her hand.
Gu Xing eagerly lunged forward, attempting to embrace her so she could no longer resist.
Just then, a streak of sword light shot in from outside the tent. Gu Heng quickly pulled his brother back. Even so, a corner of his clothes was severed.
The two men turned around with solemn expressions, only to see a figure slowly walk in.
"How can it be you?"
Upon recognizing the person, the Gu brothers cried out in surprise.
