Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 1972

Joey had always been bubbly. Upon hearing this, she smiled and said, "Miss Bella, you're flattering me. Your strength is really surprising to me."

"What's more, I'm really envious of your looks," she added.

"You are much more beautiful than I am. However, I must thank you for the compliment," Bella chuckled lightly.

Joey puffed out her mouth and said in a cute tone, "I'm not kidding. I'm telling you the truth. After Fade returned from Bamboo House a few days ago, he repeatedly talked about you. He was completely fascinated by you," she said.

"Ah..." Bella was a little surprised by her words. She couldn't help but look at Fade who was off stage.

At that moment, Fade looked at Joey with furrowed brows. He was speechless and could only remind her, "Joey, everyone is still waiting. Let's start the competition!"

As a result, the audience burst into opposition at the sound of this.

"No, let the two goddesses talk for a while longer," one of them said.

"Yes, let them continue talking like this. The longer they talk on stage, the longer we can see them," another explained.

"Prepare stools for the two goddesses and let them chat for a while!" A third added.

This disturbance caused the tense atmosphere at the competition to instantly disappear. The atmosphere turned lively with cheers.

Even the big shots on the podium didn't expect such a thing to happen. All of a sudden, they all had different expressions as they looked at one another. Some of them didn't know what to do. However, Bella and Joey, who were in the ring, didn't want to make things difficult for the masters.

Joey took the initiative to say, "Bella, why don't we compete now? We'll have a good chat when we're done with the competition."

"Suits me," Bella replied with a smile.

At that moment, both of them moved slightly and began to fight. The expressions on their faces changed in an instant. They no longer had their beautiful and exquisite smiles. Instead, they became serious.

"Ha!"

With a low shout, as Bella launched an attack with a short blade in her hand. Both of them simultaneously attacked one another and were quickly tangled in a battle.

Compared to the previous two fights, Bella and Joey's fight was much calmer. It wasn't a fierce fight, but more of a dance-like agile fight. They were like dragonflies or spiritual fishes dancing on the water. The scene was very beautiful, just like a dance performed by two beauties.

Many of the spectators were stunned.

However, some relatively strong martial artists could still see the subtlety and danger in this seemingly soft and beautiful competition.

Bella and Joey were both agile. Each of their movements was very fast. As soon as they flipped their hands, the attacks started to change.

Although their fight seemed gentle and devoid of strength, one needed a profound foundation in martial arts and a proper understanding of martial arts technique in order to attack and defend.

It could be said that they both wouldn't have such a high level of martial arts techniques without strong talent and resilient practice.

Just like that, the competition between the two beauties, which was as beautiful as a dance, went on for more than a hundred moves.

Both of them looked the same as before. There seemed to be no need for them to exhaust their positive energy while they continued to battle.

At that moment, Bella suddenly clapped her hands and turned over her right hand to put away the short blade. At the same time, she retreated and cupped her hands at Joey. "You don't have to continue. Joey, I am no match for you. I admit defeat," she said.

This was out of everyone's expectations. The crowd instantly started to discuss among themselves.

"What's going on? Bella suddenly admitted defeat!"

"She can clearly continue fighting. Why did she suddenly admit defeat?"

"Don't tell me there's something fishy behind this?" Someone asked.

"No, we strongly demand that the competition continues," another exclaimed.

The referee ignored the audience's oppositions and confirmed with Bella once more. Finally, he announced in public that Joey had won and that she had successfully advanced to the semifinals. After winning, Bella didn't immediately step down from the arena. Instead, she walked side by side with Joey.

At the same time, both of them were still talking and laughing in low voices. They looked so close that it was impossible to tell that they had just fought in the arena.

Finally, when they returned to the contestants' seats, both of them reluctantly separated.

Joey walked to Fade's side and flashed him a proud smile. She said, "Fade, I won. Now, it's your turn."

Fade smiled and said, "Don't worry."

"What did you say to Bella just now?" He asked.

She rolled her eyes and said with a smile, "Bella just asked me if you really care about her. I said it's true and she invited me to her house as a guest."

"You little girl, you..." He glared at her and swung his right hand.

Upon seeing this, she quickly shielded her head and said with a smile, "Fade, don't beat me. I'll tell you the truth."

"Say it!" He glared at the young girl.

She leaned against him and said in a low voice, "When I stepped down from the stage, Bella told me that her grandfather asked her to immediately admit defeat. However, she wasn't pleased, so she fought me. As a result, she realized that she was no match for me. Therefore, she finally admitted defeat."

Upon hearing this, Fade rolled his eyes and he turned to look at Old Master Ogen Liang who was on the platform.

At that moment, he had roughly guessed what was going on. Ogen should've known his and Joey's identities and knew quite well about their master's reputation. As such, he directly asked Bella to admit defeat.

As he thought for a while, Joey pushed Fade aside and reminded him, "Fade, it's your turn."

He came to his senses and ascended the stage. Monk Jaewoo was wearing his monk robes as he stood in front of him.

At that moment, although many of the audience members were still stunned by the result of the battle between the two goddesses, everyone instinctively transferred their attention to the final match.

A battle between Fade and Monk Jaewoo. This would definitely be one of the closest matches.

Fade was injured and he should've been eliminated a long time ago. However, his performance surprised everyone. They didn't expect him to come all the way to be where he

was now.

As the youngest contestant in this competition, Monk Jaewoo was also the center of everyone's attention. It would be determined if he could continue to advance or not.

As the referee announced the start of the match, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became serious and tense.

Both of them didn't fight from the very beginning.

Monk Jaewoo chanted Buddha's name as he looked at Fade. "Master Chen, about the thing I mentioned before, did you think about it?" He asked.

Upon hearing this, Fade raised his eyebrows and his face darkened. He knew exactly what Monk Jaewoo was talking about. It was nothing more than the Sacred Water and the two monks whom Fade had killed.

Monk Wisdomy said that he was old friends with the other two monks and wanted to use it as an excuse to ask Fade to hand over the Sacred Water.

Fade completely refused.
