Chapter 120 Can’t Afford to Lose?
Chu Huaixu instantly regained his composure and hurriedly said to the emperor, "Father, Huo Qingchen stopped the three people from Xiliang Kingdom, so Youning and I rushed out first. Father, please send someone in to take a look!"
Upon hearing this, the emperor hurriedly said, "Send someone in to take a look!"
After giving his orders, the emperor looked at Huo Yun'an again, "Although Huo Qingchen is young, he is very courageous and daring. He is worthy of being the son of the Marquis of Zhenbei! When he comes out, I will definitely reward him handsomely!"
Huo Yun'an's brows were filled with anxiety, but he still patiently bowed, "Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Just as he finished speaking, he saw Huo Qingchen and Wei Zhao walking out from the exit together.
Both of them looked a little embarrassed at this time, but they had bright smiles on their faces.
Just looking at the way the two of them are like this, you can tell that they definitely haven't suffered any loss!
Huo Yun'an's eyes were full of worry just now, but after seeing Huo Qingchen, his heart calmed down.
The emperor was also looking at the two of them. Seeing how miserable they looked, he knew that the three people from Xiliang would definitely not gain any benefits.
Sure enough, after a while, someone else came out.
The people sent in by the emperor just now carried out the three people from Xiliang Kingdom.
All three of them suffered a lot of injuries, their clothes were stained with blood, and they fainted.
Seeing this, the Xiliang delegation rushed over in a hurry.
The leader of the Western Liang Kingdom was a general named Wanyan.
General Wanyan first asked the doctor to treat the three people, then he looked at Huo Qingchen with a gloomy face, "You little brat! How dare you do such a cruel thing! You are really too arrogant!"
General Wanyan was a burly man with a beard. At this moment, he was staring with his eyes wide open, looking extremely fierce.
Huo Qingchen wasn't frightened at all, he looked up at him, "Three of them beat me up, and they don't allow me to fight back?"
"Even if three of them attacked you alone, you couldn't be so cruel! They were unarmed, but you were holding a sword. Do you want to kill them? You're so cruel and ruthless at such a young age. You won't be a good person when you grow up!"
"You're no good!" Huo Qingchen almost jumped up. "They can bully the weak with their numbers, but I can't use weapons? What kind of rules are you using?"
Huo Yun'an took a few steps forward, standing in front of Huo Qingchen, and looked at General Wanyan coldly, "In this competition, life and death are decided by fate. What does General Wanyan mean by this? Could it be that you can't afford to lose?"
Without waiting for General Wanyan to answer, Yu Youning shouted, "He just can't afford to lose!"
In a competition between children, if you lose, you lose. How can the parents be held accountable later?
"If you continue like this, I won't play with you anymore!" Yu Youning said again.
The emperor nodded in deep agreement. "Youning is right. Xiliang cannot afford to lose. Do we still want to participate in the next two competitions? We must be careful not to lose and General Wanyan will come out to cause trouble again!"
It is understandable that General Wanyan's face looked very ugly when he was told that he couldn't afford to lose in front of so many people.
"Western Liang certainly isn't above losing," General Wanyan said coldly, "but we also hope that Dayong can understand the principle of knowing when to stop!"
Huo Qingchen snorted coldly, "If they don't cause me any trouble, I certainly won't hit them. Instead of telling me this, why don't you have a good talk with your people? If you lose, you lose. Don't hold on to it. You'll not only be embarrassed, but you'll also get hurt."
Being squeezed out again, General Wanyan's face had turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
"This is only the first competition, don't get too proud too soon. See you in three days!"
After saying this, General Wanyan left with the Xiliang delegation.
Before leaving, he didn't even bow to the emperor.
"You are indeed a barbarian! You don't know any etiquette at all!" Huo Qingchen said disdainfully.
The emperor was pleased by this and laughed heartily, "It's alright, we in Dayong are a country of etiquette, we won't argue with them!"
General Wanyan, who had not yet walked far, stumbled and almost fell to the ground.
After pausing for a moment, he finally gritted his teeth and turned away.
After the people from Xiliang left, Lord Gou from Nanzhao came forward with his men.
Lord Gou first bowed to the emperor, fearing that he would be accused of being barbarians who did not understand etiquette.
After paying his respects, he turned to Wei Zhao and asked, "Excuse me, Seventh Prince, where are the other four?"
Wei Zhao's face showed no expression. He only glanced at Lord Gou calmly and said, "He's dead."
Upon hearing this, Lord Gou's expression suddenly grew serious. "Dead? How did they die? Why are the four of them dead, but the Seventh Prince is fine?"
"Master Gou, do you mean that you hope this prince will die in there too?"
When Lord Gou heard Wei Zhao's self-introduction, his mind instantly became clear and he quickly restrained his attitude.
No matter what the Queen of Nanzhao ordered, and no matter whether Wei Zhao was favored or not, Wei Zhao was the seventh prince after all, and he was just a minister!
Especially now, we are still in Dayong 1
If he disrespected Wei Zhao in front of the Emperor of Dayong and all the officials of Dayong, wouldn't he be laughed at by the people of Dayong?
"Seventh Prince, you have misunderstood!" Lord Gou explained with a smile, "That is not what I meant. I simply wish to know how they died. After all, their identities were not simple. Now that they are dead, I must write a memorial and send it back as quickly as possible. I hope Seventh Prince can understand."
"This prince naturally understands." Wei Zhao's expression remained calm. "During the fourth level, they were careless and all died in the sea of fire. Now I'm afraid that not even a bone is left."
This explanation can be said to be extremely perfunctory.
Lord Gou wanted to ask more questions, but Wei Zhao turned his head away, showing no intention of explaining.
At this moment, someone else came out from the exit, it was Lin Ruoli and Zhai Heming.
Marquis Chengyi had been extremely anxious for a long time, but now he was relieved when he saw Zhai Heming come out.
"Ming'er! You're finally out! What took you so long? Are you hurt?"
Marquis Chengyi asked a series of questions, but received no response at all.
Zhai Heming followed Lin Ruoli closely, as if he didn't see Marquis Chengyi.
Zhai Heming had already been like this before he entered the game, but Marquis Chengyi didn't care at that time.
But now, seeing that Zhai Heming was still like this, Marquis Chengyi realized that something was wrong.
"Ming'er! What's wrong with you? Father is talking to you, why don't you answer?"
Lin Ruoli was still walking forward, and Zhai Heming followed closely behind her.
When passing by Marquis Chengyi, he did not stop at all, but his eyes were always looking in the direction of Marquis Chengyi.
When Yu Youning saw this scene, he remembered what he had forgotten and quickly twisted his body, "I want to go down!"
The emperor was not angry. He bent down and put Yu Youning and Chu Huaixu on the ground.
As soon as Yu Youning's feet touched the ground, he immediately ran towards Lin Ruoli and stood in front of her.
Lin Ruoli's face looked bad to begin with, and it became even uglier when Yu Youning blocked her way.
"Yu Youning, why are you standing in front of me?"
Yu Youning pointed at Zhai Heming and said, "His father is calling him."
"You didn't call me, why are you telling me this!"
Lin Ruoli looked arrogant, with disdain in her eyes.
So what if Yu Youning knows medical skills?
Could it be that she also knows about Gu?
Can the Gu be taken out of Zhai Heming's body?
My mother-in-law said that if anyone dares to forcibly take out the insect, the insect will directly bite off the heart meridian of the host!
Thinking of this, Lin Ruoli understood and began to look forward to it.
Yu Youning better act quickly!
If Zhai Heming really died because of this, then Chengyi Hou would definitely hate Yu Youning to death! He would definitely find a way to take Yu Youning's life!
When she thought of this, Lin Ruoli felt extremely happy.
"Are you okay? If not, get out of my way. I'm going home!"
Lin Ruoli said this while looking at Yu Youning with pride.
Yu Youning frowned, "Are you going to take the initiative to remove the Gu from his body, or should I do it?"
Lin Ruoli was a little surprised when she heard this. Yu Youning actually saw that Zhai Heming was poisoned?
But the surprise was only momentary.
Lin Ruoli turned her head and said, "I don't know what you are talking about!"
Marquis Chengyi stepped forward and looked at Yu Youning with serious eyes. "Youning, what did you mean just now? Are you saying that Ming'er was planted with the poison? Or was it Lin Ruoli who planted it in him?"
"Yes." Yu Youning nodded his head. "This kind of insect is divided into two types: mother and child. Those who have the child insect in their body will obey the orders of the mother insect and lose control of their limbs."
Cheng Yihou had always loved Zhai Heming, but now that he knew that Zhai Heming was actually being controlled by Lin Ruoli, he felt both distressed and angry. He glared at Lin Ruoli and asked, "Ming'er was so good to you before, how could you treat him like this?"
Lin Ruoli's eyes were panicked for a moment, but she did not admit it.
"I don't know what you're talking about!"
"Is it what Yu Youning says?"
"If you believe her so much, ask her to take out that Gu!"
Yu Youning stared at Lin Ruoli with his inky black eyes. His fair and tender face was filled with an extremely serious expression. "If I were to take it, you would suffer agonizing pain."
Heart-wrenching pain?
Lin Ruoli was stunned for a moment, then sneered, "Don't scare me! I don't even know what you're talking about!"
No matter how capable Yu Youning is, she is only five years old. Can she be as capable as her mother-in-law?
She just didn't believe that Yu Youning could really remove the poison planted by her mother-in-law!
"How stubborn!"
Yu Youning said this and shook his head.
Lin Ruoli turned her head away and didn't take Yu Youning's words seriously at all.
Marquis Chengyi was extremely anxious. Even though he was such a grown man, his eyes were red.
"Youning, I beg you, please save Ming'er!"
"As long as you can save Ming'er, I will give you whatever you want."
Yu Youning patted her chest with her small hands, "Don't worry! I will save him!"
As he spoke, Yu Youning walked to Zhai Heming and put his little hand close to Zhai Heming's ear.
The next moment, a fat white bug crawled out from Yu Youning's sleeve, crawled along Yu Youning's arm, and finally crawled directly into Zhai Heming's ear.
