Chapter 246 Li Shiyue wins!
(Thanks to Qingli Dilei for casting 4 monthly votes.)
Li Shiyue stood inside the circle, raising her hand to wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth that she had accidentally scratched during the battle with the Turks.
Li Shiyue stuck out her tongue and licked the blood from the corner of her mouth. Receiving the metallic taste of blood, she spat a mouthful of bloody saliva onto the ground.
It was at this moment, after looking at everyone in the audience, that Yan Jiuniang and the others finally realized what was happening, and a deafening roar of cheers filled their ears.
Li Shiyue turned around and smiled at Yan Jiuniang and Li Xiatian, who were already running towards her. The smile aggravated the wound on her lip, and she quickly closed her mouth again in pain.
However, there were actually two Turkic men lying in the circle who had been punched in the nose and pounded in the chest by Li Shiyue and were now of unknown fate.
This is also why Liu Tan has not spoken out to say that Li Shiyue has "won". Only when Li Shiyue is the only one left in the circle can it be considered that she has won!
So, what Li Shiyue should do now is throw these two people out of the circle, and then Liu Tan can declare her the winner!
In this way, she could not only prevent Yan Jiuniang from being married by the Turks, but also obtain the longbow and scimitar of the Turkic Khan. Moreover, most importantly, she, Li Shiyue, made a name for herself in front of the Prince of Zhenbei. Now, no one in the entire Xuanjia Army of Andong was unaware of her bravery!
With tears in her eyes, Yan Jiuniang stood outside the circle with Li Xiatian, watching Li Shiyue walk towards the first Turkic man whose nose she had broken, and who then fell backward to the ground.
Everyone thought Li Shiyue would go forward and throw the man out of the circle, but to their surprise, she squatted down and placed her finger on the Turkic man's philtrum. She felt that he was still warm and knew that he was not dead, but just unconscious. Li Shiyue breathed a sigh of relief.
Although life and death are determined by fate in the arena, for her, it's better not to die.
After all, she was just a commoner now and couldn't withstand the wrath of the Turkic Khan.
The Turks might be wary of the Xuanjia Army under the Prince of Zhenbei, but Li Shiyue herself had nothing to do with the Xuanjia Army.
Who knows if the Turkic Khan will take his anger out on her if this person dies?
She's fine on her own, but what about Li's mother and the others?
With this in mind, Li Shiyue checked whether the person was still alive only after he was certain of winning.
Knowing the man wasn't dead, Li Shiyue grabbed the Turkic man by the feet and dragged him out of the circle.
Then she went to the Turkic man who had collapsed to the ground after she punched his chest four or five times, squatted down to check his breathing, and found that he really was no longer breathing!
Li Shiyue nervously pressed down on the neck of the Turkic man.
X!
No carotid pulse!
The onlookers found Li Shiyue's actions rather strange, especially the Turks, who had no idea what he was doing.
Liu Tan, who was standing outside the circle, understood what was going on: Li Shiyue was confirming whether the person was still alive.
There was no breath, no carotid pulse. Li Shiyue quickly bent down to listen to the man's chest. Damn! His heart had stopped beating!
That shouldn't be happening!
Although I used all my strength, I was just estimating. At most, I would faint, but how could I possibly be beaten to death!
While silently chanting this in her heart, Li Shiyue's hands did not stop. She suddenly reached out and ripped open the Turkic man's outer garment, exposing his entire chest.
"October! You..."
Yan Jiuniang looked at Li Shiyue's actions and didn't understand them at all. She shouted loudly at Li Shiyue, but was grabbed by the arm by Liu Tan who came over.
Then Li Shiyue raised his hand, clenched his fist, and slammed it down hard into the chest of the Turkic man!
Not content with just one slam, she slammed it down twice more with a "bang!"
The Turks outside the circle were furious, all believing that Li Shiyue was insulting their warriors!
Humiliating someone by tearing off their clothes and hitting their chest!
The Turkic man who had smashed She'er face-first into the dirt was one of the eight people who fought Li Shiyue and was basically unharmed. He was furious and was about to rush over and attack Li Shiyue!
Liu Tan was standing just outside the circle on the other side. How could he possibly let Li Shiyue, who was saving people, be disturbed?
Liu Tan knew that he couldn't reason with the Turks; the only way to make them obey was to defeat them!
So, Liu Tan let go of Yan Jiuniang's hand and quickly walked over to the Turkic man who was shouting something and rushing towards Li Shiyue who was saving people. As soon as he got there, he kicked the man hard and knocked him to the ground.
When the others reacted, they stood up and rushed at him again. He then delivered a knee strike to the stomach, causing the man to kneel on the ground in pain.
It was at this moment that Li Shiyue felt that his two strikes, imbued with internal force, had taken effect, saving the Turkic man whose heart had stopped beating for seven or eight breaths.
His heart started beating again!
Regardless of whether this Turkic man can survive after returning home, at least he is not dead now!
Thus, Li Shiyue carefully pulled the Turkic man by the ankle and gently moved him outside the circle.
As soon as he put down the Turkic man's ankle, a group of Turks surrounded him. When Li Shiyue saw this, he was afraid that they would kill the person he had finally managed to save, so he turned to look at Liu Tan.
Liu Tan understood Li Shiyue's meaning at a glance. He turned around and waved to Ma San and the others. Ma San and Zhao Da then led their men over and pulled away the Turks who were surrounding them.
At this moment, the Turkic Khan, who could understand Chinese, said something to the Turks, and they stopped pushing and shoving each other.
The Great Khan of the Turks realized and heard Liu Tan's words; Li Shiyue was saving people.
Although he had more than a dozen sons, the death of one son did not bother him much, and he even considered using his dead son to launch an attack against the Prince of Zhenbei.
However, if the son can survive, then it's naturally better if he doesn't die.
At this moment, Liu Tan stepped forward, grabbed Li Shiyue's hand, raised it, and announced to the entire audience: "Li Shiyue wins!"
Yan Jiuniang and Li Xiatian then ran over and grabbed Li Shiyue's arms on either side!
"October!
You win!
You win!
You won!
Repeating the same sentence, but with a different tone each time, Yan Jiuniang burst into tears. Yet, she was also happy, her lips curving upward in a smile, but tears were streaming from her eyes, making her look rather strange.
Li Shiyue raised her hand and used the back of her still relatively clean hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of Yan Jiuniang's eyes. "Don't cry, I won!"
You don't need to marry into the Turkic tribe!
Turning her head, Li Shiyue said to the excited Li Xiatian, "Sister, the longbow is for you, and the scimitar is for Sister Qiutian!"
"October!
Forget about bows and swords, what's wrong with you?
Tell me quickly!
Jiu Niang said that Doctor Liu is right here!
"Where does it hurt? Tell me quickly, don't hold it in!"
"Yes, yes! Summer is right! October, where does it hurt? Tell me, don't hold it in!"
"Ah! I'll go and call Dr. Liu over to take a look at you!"
Yan Jiuniang raised her hand to wipe away the tears on her face, then turned around to call Liu Junyi over.
At this moment, She'er, who had lost his teeth and looked like he had a broken back, the Turkic man whose leg had been pinched by Li Shiyue, and the Turkic man whose leg bone was broken after colliding with Li Shiyue's fist, all stared at Li Shiyue without blinking.
Besides hatred, there was also a trace of fear in his eyes!
