Chapter 253: Old Grievance
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Bai Sang instinctively wanted to struggle, but Su Ying’s hands and feet felt like they weighed a thousand pounds. No matter how he struggled, he was like a fish under a kitchen knife, waiting to be slaughtered by her.
At this moment, Bai Sang finally understood what Su Ying meant. He really wanted to cry now!
Everything had happened so quickly that no one in the tribe could react in time. When they saw Bai Sang pinned down by Su Ying, they even wondered if their eyes were playing tricks on them, causing them to hallucinate.
“Do you admit defeat?” Su Ying’s very calm voice rang out.
Bai Sang panted heavily. He did not want to yield, but he had no choice.
“Admit… defeat. 1 admit defeat!”
The brave warriors of the Shepherd Tribe were not people who would not acknowledge defeat. If they lost, they lost. It was that simple.
Su Ying only loosened her grip and stood up after she heard him shout. She even dusted the snow off her body leisurely.
Bai Sang looked at her nonchalant expression and was really about to cry.
“Bai Sang, you rascal. You gave up being a warrior just to make a woman happy.” Some tribesmen recovered themselves and began mocking him.
“That’s right. Your acting is too fake. You should have at least executed two more moves, but you were knocked down in one move. Don’t you have any shame?”
When everyone came back to their senses, no one was willing to believe that Su Ying could be so powerful, so they were certain that Bai Sang had deliberately gone easy on her.
Though Bai Sang couldn’t defeat Su Ying, he did not allow them to discredit Su Ying’s strength. “Don’t spout nonsense. She’s really powerful. The woman 1 like is very powerful!”
Su Ying frowned, feeling that the last sentence was a bit redundant.
“I don’t believe it. If she can defeat me, I’ll give her all the sheep I get this year.” One of the tribesmen stood up. He simply refused to believe Bai Sang’s words no matter what the latter said.
Bai Sang glanced at him and gave a snort. “Fine. It’s settled then.”
Bai Sang had already become Su Ying’s spokesperson. “How many sheep will you get?”
“Twenty.”
Su Ying nodded. “Not bad.”
The tribesman gave a snort. He was extremely displeased with Su Ying’s confident demeanor. “If you lose, you’ll marry Bai Sang.”
“I won’t lose.”
The tribesman quickly got into position and prepared to fight with all his might.
Su Ying also circulated her aura into her dantian.
Roar!
The man gave a furious roar and charged at Su Ying like an enraged elephant.
Just as he was about to collide with her, Su Ying’s body flashed and she dodged his strike.
The man didn’t give up even though he missed. He adjusted his position once again and lunged at Su Ying.
Su Ying ran out of patience after dodging a few times. “I’m not playing with you anymore.”
When the man charged forward again, she grabbed his front lapel and then lifted him by his belt. After swinging him through the air in a perfect parabola, she smashed him directly into the snow.
Row! The thunderous noise shocked the onlooking tribesmen.
They stood up in disbelief. They looked at their tribesman who lay in the snow for a long time and did not stand up. Their eyes had widened so much that they resembled copper coins.
Su Ying didn’t even need to step forward to press him down. That man simply couldn’t get up at all.
Su Ying watched the man twitching on the ground. After some thought, she squatted down and pressed a few acupoints on his body. Soon, the man’s body slowly relaxed, and he looked at Su Ying in surprise as if he had just caught his breath.
“You lost. The twenty sheep are mine.”
To think that while the people of the Shepherd Tribe stood rooted in the same spot in shock, all Su Ying could think about were those few sheep!
When Bai Sang saw this, he wanted to yell out, “If you become my wife, I’ll find a way to get them even if you want two hundred sheep!”
Su Ying slowly stood up and swept her gaze across the other tribesmen. “Who else wants to give me sheep? 1 won’t turn away anyone.”
Some warriors wanted to step forward but were stopped by Tribal Chief Yang Zhong.
“How should 1 address you?”
“Su Ying, the City Lord of Sky Alpha City. Do you know the Sky Alpha City?”
Yang Zhong frowned. Of course, he knew. Those beasts raised in that godforsaken place had devoured many of their cattle and sheep.
“You are from Sky Alpha City.”
“To be precise, I’m now the Sky Alpha City’s… ruler.”
“You are the Empress.”
“Call me City Lord.”
“What are you doing here?” Yang Zhong asked warily.
“Tribal Chief, don’t worry. I’m here to buy cattle and sheep. You’ve seen the gold.” Su Ying took out the gold and waved it in front of his eyes.
Yang Zhong didn’t believe that the people of Sky Alpha City were so easy to talk to. When their beasts ate their cattle and sheep, the beast owners didn’t even make a peep.
“Hmph! Buying cattle and sheep? The amount of cattle and sheep you guys devoured in the past is worth more than this little bit of gold.”
“What do you mean?” Su Ying asked with a baffled look.
“Don’t play dumb. The ferocious beasts from your place will come to our place to hunt from time to time.”
Su Ying really didn’t know. It was no wonder that when she saw the big cats chasing the cattle, she thought they were bisons in the deep mountains. Who knew those cattle were raised by a human tribe?
“There won’t be a next time.” Su Ying didn’t want to get into a bad relationship with this large livestock breeding tribe. After all, their place was really suitable for raising cattle and sheep!
Tribal Chief Yang Zhong didn’t believe it. “Do you think we’ll believe you just because you said so? If you know what’s good for you, leave now. Otherwise, don’t blame the warriors of our tribe for not showing you any courtesy!”
The moment Tribal Chief Yang Zhong issued the order, all the men in the tribe stepped forward and shielded the old, weak, women, and children behind them.
Zhang Nuo saw the sudden change in the atmosphere and hurriedly stood up to explain, “Tribal Chief, you’ve really misunderstood. We really don’t have any ill intentions. The Sky Alpha City is no longer the same as before.”
However, Tribal Chief Yang Zhong took out a long rod from one side and placed it horizontally in front of himself. “Leave now. We’ll let you off for now. If you continue to talk nonsense, don’t say that we’re bullying you because we outnumbered you!”
“Tribal Chief…”
Zhang Nuo stood in front of Su Ying. “Tribal Chief, we really mean no harm.”
Su Ying pushed Zhang Nuo to the side and looked at the tribal chief. “I’ll tell you this again. The matter of the wild beasts in Sky Alpha City eating your cattle and sheep has nothing to do with me. The person who caused your losses has already gone to meet the King of Hell. I’ve come this time to establish a friendly relationship with you guys so that we can have mutual exchanges in the future.”
“You’re all in cahoots. Don’t even think about lying to us. Get lost!”
The rod in Tribal Chief Yang Zhong’s hand suddenly swept toward the two of them.
Su Ying’s eyes darkened. She turned around and pushed Zhang Nuo to the ground. “Run!”
Zhang Nuo assumed that Su Ying was going to run with him as well, so he turned around and climbed up the sinkhole.
Su Ying didn’t plan on leaving just like that. She still hadn’t taken her twenty sheep!
Since they were advocating violence, then she would fight.
Su Ying turned around and grabbed the rod in Tribal Chief Yang Zhong’s hand. Tribal Chief Yang Zhong’s aura sank, and with a furious roar, he pulled the rod back. His strength was so great that he pulled Su Ying into the air outright.
Tribal Chief Yang Zhong then swung the rod mightily toward the fire in the middle..
