Chapter 617 Single Challenge
How could Xiyue Lei let go of the meat that was right in his mouth? He waved his hand, "Stop fighting, let me go and have a good fight with Princess Anyang first."
"You going?" Barhu curled his lips and chuckled, "Brother Xiyue, forget it. Your head is as thick as a dumpling, and you can't charge into battle!"
Nangong Jin rolled his eyes in disapproval, "Exactly. Going to the battlefield when you're already so injured, isn't that laughable? Someone who doesn't know would think our Four-Nation Alliance is dead!"
"You still have the nerve to criticize me? You guys also have broken arms and legs, so why can't I do the same?" Xi Yuelei was so angry that he waved his hand, "If that's the case, none of us should go, let Gao Lizhu go!"
"As you command! I'll go and capture Princess Anyang right away."
Gao Lizhu knew that Xiyue Lei was just talking casually, so before they could react, she whipped her horse and rushed forward with hundreds of soldiers, leaving the remaining three people stunned where they were.
Seeing this, Xi Yuelei slammed his head in regret. It was true that too much talk leads to mistakes. This bastard reacted so quickly.
Barhu and Nangong Jin were so angry that they gritted their teeth and glared, cursing in their hearts, "This big fool didn't even think before he spoke, and actually let that thief Gao Lizhu take advantage of them. If he really captured Princess Anyang, all their efforts would be in vain."
At this time, Gao Lizhu was very proud. It was like someone was giving her a pillow when she was sleepy. She must not miss this opportunity and must capture Chen Qingqing alive.
He rode his horse to the front of the two armies and took a closer look. He saw that Chen Qingqing was followed by a hundred or so people. His eyes immediately lit up. This was a godsend opportunity. He would definitely be able to capture Princess Anyang alive.
He smiled broadly, "Princess Anyang, we are truly destined to meet. We just separated yesterday, and I didn't expect to meet again today. Have you thought about what I'm going to say? If you are willing to surrender, I can agree to all your requests, even if it means being your horse."
Chen Qingqing was annoyed by his frivolous words and cursed with a sullen face, "Shameless bastard, don't you see how ugly you are? How dare you have such a desire for me!"
After being scolded, Gao Lizhu was not angry, but instead showed a lewd smile, "Princess Anyang, don't be angry. Although this prince is not good-looking, I am the most compassionate and kind to women. As long as you follow me, I will definitely favor you and never let you suffer any grievances."
Chen Qingqing was furious. "Shut your stinky mouth. I'm here to fight you. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I'll kill you."
Gao Lizhu showed a look of regret, her tone full of frivolity, "Anyang actually sent a little beauty out to fight. Are all the men in your Daning Dynasty dead?"
"Why use a butcher knife to kill a chicken? It's enough to deal with you, the princess." Chen Qingqing's eyes were stern. "Stop talking nonsense. Don't you want a one-on-one duel? Tell me, how do you fight?"
Gao Lizhu was confident about capturing Chen Qingqing alive. A one-on-one fight was out of the question.
As long as he captured Princess Anyang alive, he would be able to torture her severely and find out who the descendants of the Five Poisons Sect were. Then his goal of unifying the world under Gaoluo would be successfully accomplished.
He looked at Chen Qingqing with contempt, not taking her seriously at all, and believed that she was his prey today.
Of course, he would tease the prey first. After teasing it enough, he would order his soldiers to attack it together. As long as he could capture Prince Anyang alive, he would not care about martial ethics.
Gao Lizhu raised the corner of her lips, "This Crown Prince has good intentions, but Princess Anyang is so ignorant of the current situation and stubborn. This Crown Prince cannot let people accuse me of bullying a woman. How about this, this Crown Prince will give in to you, and you decide how to fight."
Chen Qingqing curled her lips and smiled, "Okay, let's compete with hidden weapons. As long as you can catch my hidden weapon with your bare hands and hold it in your hand for a while, you will win. Do you dare to try it?"
Gao Lizhu smiled sinisterly. How could a tall and strong man like him not be able to catch a hidden weapon from a weak woman?
"Why not? But you must keep your word. If I can catch your hidden weapon, you will no longer be able to resist. You must return to Gaoluo Kingdom with me and hand over to me the descendant of the Five Poison Sect who created the 'Star-Splitting Explosive Sand' in the city."
"Star-splitting and blasting sand? What is that?" Chen Qingqing was confused.
Gao Lizhu frowned. "If it weren't for that 'Star-Splitting Exploding Sand', we would have already invaded Anyang City. Princess Anyang, please stop playing dumb. If I really catch your hidden weapon, you'd better tell me where the descendants of the Five Poisons Sect are. Otherwise, don't blame me for not being gentle with women."
Chen Qingqing was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that the 'Star-Splitting Exploding Sand' he mentioned was the landmine she made.
She smiled ostentatiously, "Alright, if you can catch the hidden weapon, I'll tell you who created the 'Star-Splitting Explosive Sand'."
"Okay, then hurry up and violently launch your unique hidden weapon at me!"
"Then you have to answer it."
Chen Qingqing showed a barely perceptible sneer at the corner of her mouth. "Damn it, today I'll let you taste the power of my palm thunder." She pulled the fuse of the thunder and threw it towards Gao Lizhu at lightning speed.
Gao Lizhu was just thinking about something good when he saw a black object with white smoke coming towards him.
He suddenly realized something and subconsciously spurred his horse to avoid it, while shouting behind him, "Scatter quickly!"
But it was too late. There was a loud bang, flames shot up into the sky, and thick smoke billowed out.
The soldiers and generals behind him were blown to pieces, with blood and flesh flying everywhere, and there were casualties everywhere. In an instant, there were ghosts crying and wolves howling, and the place became a mess.
Gao Lizhu, who was not hit by the explosion, was so frightened that her soul almost died. She pointed at Chen Qingqing with a trembling finger, "You, you, you have no moral integrity. You dared to use the 'Star-Splitting Explosive Sand' to plot against me. Just wait, I will never let you go!"
He didn't dare stay for long, for fear of being killed by firearms. He didn't care about other soldiers and generals, and turned around and fled, waving his whip vigorously.
Xiyue Lei and the others were all preoccupied with their own affairs and paid no attention to the battle situation ahead.
Suddenly they heard a loud noise, which frightened them so much that they almost fell off their horses. They all looked up and looked around.
Before I could figure out what was happening, I saw Gao Lizhu running back in panic.
"Brother Gao, what happened? Why did you come back just after you left?" Xi Yuelei asked hurriedly.
Gao Lizhu was still in shock, and it took her a long time to recover. "Don't mention it, that little girl was too cruel. Fortunately, I reacted in time, otherwise I would have been blown into a pile of rotten meat!"
Seeing his cowardly look, Barag snorted disdainfully, "You, the crown prince of a country, were actually frightened into running away by a little girl. Isn't he afraid of being embarrassed if the news gets out?"
"Just now you rushed forward like a rabbit, and in a short while you ran back with your tail between your legs. What a disgrace!" Nangong Jin also followed suit with a sneer...
