Chapter 314: A Great Help
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Just when everyone thought Su Ying was going to be thrown out of the ring, she grabbed the warrior’s hair the moment he released her. The warrior’s body fell forward due to reflex action, but Su Ying’s body spun twice in the air before landing firmly inside the ring.
Su Ying licked her lips, and the light in her eyes grew brighter and brighter. Like a leopard, she suddenly bent down and darted to the rear of the warriors. The warriors reached out to grab her, but in the blink of an eye, they saw Su Ying lifting one of them up high.
Everyone in the hall collectively gasped in shock. That was a warrior who was several times heavier than Su Ying, yet she was able to lift him up so easily!
“Get lost!” Su Ying flung the warrior in her hands out with all her might.
The warrior’s body was like a solid wooden log that smashed viciously into the other warrior’s bodies. More than a dozen warriors fell down in one swathe.
Su Ying didn’t give them a chance to catch their breath. One by one, she grabbed the warriors by their hair and belts and flung them out as if she was tossing torn rags!
After more than half of the warriors were thrown out, the remaining warriors gritted their teeth and got up before charging at Su Ying again.
Su Ying frowned slightly. Xiao Jin could tell that she had lost her patience.
Su Ying clenched her fist and punched the warrior in the stomach. Everyone could clearly see that warrior’s stomach sinking in.
Prince Yu’s expression was extremely unpleasant. His two eyes turned malicious and sinister as he suddenly fired shots from the hidden weapon in his hand at the two children opposite him.
When the darts brushed past Su Ying’s hair, her eyes widened. In the blink of an eye, she saw the darts flying towards the two children.
Xiao Jin also reacted. He quickly picked up the two children and kicked the table over to block the incoming darts.
Thud! The poison darts pierced the table top and embedded themselves on the pillar behind Xiao Jin.
Su Ying was furious. “You’re courting death!”
She lifted a warrior, turned around, and flung him at Prince Yu.
Prince Yu got a big shock and quickly pulled Princess Pingling down with him to dodge.
The thunderous noise startled the people sitting around them and they all stood up as they stared in Su Ying’s direction in horror.
Su Ying glared icily at Prince Yu and flung another warrior in her hand at him again.
Prince Yu was forced to dodge repeatedly until he finally fell into the ring.
Emperor Kangze saw the whole incident, but he didn’t say anything to stop it. Since it was the Nan State who provoked Su Ying, he would let them bear the consequences.
Su Ying’s fist landed on the last warrior’s face. That warrior fell over backward and collapsed to the ground.
Prince Yu looked at all the warriors lying on the ground. When his eyes met Su Ying’s malicious eyes, he subconsciously backed away.
“Do you think you can last three moves?”
Prince Yu turned around and tried to flee, but Su Ying was faster than him. Su Ying darted to the front in a flash and blocked his way.
She grabbed his robe and gave him a punch without hesitation.
“Oof!”
Prince Yu only felt everything before his eyes becoming blurred, followed by a sea of pitch-black darkness.
However, Su Ying still wasn’t satisfied. She changed her fists to palms and slapped Prince Yu’s face repeatedly. Finally, she finished off by throwing him out of the ring.
The hall went silent instantly after the sound of Prince Yu falling subsided.
Even Emperor Kangze remained rooted in the same spot in shock. He didn’t come back to his senses for a long time.
As for those who had been waiting to see Su Ying’s miserable state and to laugh at her, no words in any language could describe their feelings at this moment.
Su Ying wiped off the blood that had splattered onto her face and extended her hand to the Grand Steward of the Imperial Palace.
The Grand Steward was so frightened that his entire body stiffened. When he regained his senses and realized that Su Ying wanted the item in his hands, he didn’t dare to delay any longer and quickly handed the item over to Su Ying.
There was more.
Su Ying turned to look at the envoy from the Nan State and… the box in his hand.
The envoy very sensibly handed the box over with both hands.
Satisfied with her wins, Su Ying walked back to Xiao Jin with the two boxes in her arms. She raised her eyebrows at him, and her eyes seemed to be saying that she had made another killing.
Xiao Jin’s expression was full of conflicts. He realized that his heart was in his mouth all the while just now. Even though he knew that Su Ying was formidable, every time he saw her surrounded by those people, he wanted so badly to rush forward!
“Mother, Mother…”
Both Ji and Ling had been badly frightened and they cried and wailed, trying to rush into Su Ying’s arms.
Su Ying quickly placed the boxes on the ground and hugged the two little ones in her arms. “Are you scared?”
“Mother, Mother is in danger. Sob, sob, sob…” The younger toddler Ling gripped Su Ying’s robe tightly. She seemed to have been frightened quite badly.
The older toddler Ji’s little face was also tense. His eyes were red-rimmed. Though he did not cry, he looked very worried.
“Good, good! Hahahahahaha!” Emperor Kangze finally came back to his senses and applauded furiously as he voiced his approval loudly.
All the ministers could do was clap their hands, and the hall was instantly filled with thunderous applause. However, this did not affect Su Ying at all.
The palace servants entered the hall one after another and brought the injured warriors and Prince Yu away. In the blink of an eye, the inside of the hall was completely cleaned up as if nothing had happened before.
“Princess Consort Qi, you’ve really helped me to broaden my horizons!” It had never occurred to Emperor Kangze that Su Ying could be so formidable. She was simply inhuman!
No wonder Xiao Jin still brought her back to the capital after she had done so many stupid things. He could not bear to throw away such a treasure either.
The Empress’s face was ashen. She looked at Su Ying with irrepressible anger in her eyes, but more than that, there was also unconcealable fear. If it weren’t for today’s contest, who would have thought that Su Ying was such a terrifying character?
Judging from the injuries on Princess Zhaoxi’s body, Su Ying had gone easy on her!
Emperor Kangze was extremely delighted that the Chu State had achieved a resounding victory in this contest. He immediately issued additional rewards for Su Ying.
Su Ying accepted all of them.
The banquet continued, and the entire hall was filled with singing and dancing.
However, no one present was in the mood to enjoy the show anymore. Their minds were still filled with the images of Su Ying throwing those warriors out.
It was really… too exciting!
Prime Minister Su’s family members had very interesting expressions on their faces. If not for the identical face, Prime Minister Su would never believe that the person who fought the warriors in the hall was his own daughter!
A thought as terrifying as the Empress’s appeared in Prime Minister Su’s mind. Su Ying might still have some affection for him after all. Although the affection wasn’t much, he didn’t suffer too much since he had only been slapped until his face was swollen!
However, Prime Minister Su just couldn’t understand where Su Ying had learned her martial arts skills. She was so formidable that even an expert couldn’t attain her level!
Prince Yu and the warriors had been defeated. The Nan State delegation was furious and embarrassed. The delegates were not willing to stay on at the banquet and all stood up to leave.
Perhaps the happiest person in the entire venue was Emperor Kangze.
However, soon, the Empress ruined Emperor Kangze’s good mood.
“Prince Qi is truly lucky to have married such a Consort. If Princess Consort Qi leaves this place, she will definitely be a great help to Prince Qi..”
