Chapter 1050: Chapter 313: Is This a Dream? Needless Worries!
Qingyi was already drenched by the rain, standing dumbfounded in place. She... she had a very bad premonition. Looking at the bodies scattered across the ground, she couldn’t understand why things had reached this point today; they were friends not long ago!
"It’s possible." Lu Yi replied calmly, "I promise you, if you can kill Xu Dingsheng, then this girl will assuredly live the rest of her life in peace."
"Okay." Qin Xiu nodded solemnly.
The burly man in front of her was exceedingly arrogant. The soldiers around, having heard Qin Xiu agree to spar, already had peculiar expressions on their faces. They were somewhat bewildered, thinking Qin Xiu cannot possibly believe that she could defeat Xu Dingsheng, could she? Could this really happen?!
Don’t think that just because you’ve killed a few exhausted soldiers, you can truly believe you’re quite capable.
You should know this is Xu Dingsheng! Is Xu Dingsheng someone a woman could possibly defeat!?
"Ominous."
Xu Dingsheng himself sighed and said to the surrounding soldiers, "There’s no other way! I don’t understand why such a downtrodden little woman would be so proud. Do you think you’re our king? And you should know, we’re in combat here, this isn’t poetry recitation."
"If it were poetry recitation, I’d kneel to you directly, but this isn’t recitation; this is a clash between swords."
"Could it be that all your masters have died humbly, and you’re having a mental breakdown here?"
Xu Dingsheng pretended not to understand.
"Hahahahaha!"
"Hahahahaha!"
The soldiers burst into laughter, as more soldiers kept arriving.
This country had all been conquered now, which to them felt like a dessert after dinner, refreshing.
Especially since Qin Xiu was this country’s Imperial Guard Captain, if they could rely on sparring to kill her, it would be the most satisfying insult to her character!
Even some soldiers gave insincere cries for Qin Xiu, crying as they said, "I know Qin Xiu is very powerful now, but the opponent is our country’s commander, aren’t the bodies of the two on entirely different levels, how can she possibly win?"
"Indeed, with Qin Xiu’s slender figure in front of the opponent, isn’t she just like a petty child?"
"How can she win."
At this moment, Qingyi snapped out of it. With resolute eyes, she walked before everyone, then knelt pleadingly to Lu Yi, "Please! Don’t kill Sister Qin Xiu! I’m willing to die to apologize and ensure Sister Qin Xiu’s safety!"
Lu Yi did not respond.
The mocking laughter of the surrounding soldiers grew louder. It was originally jarring when Qin Xiu was alone, but now there was a little girl pleading for her too. Is it disgraceful? Embarrassing too much! The little girl dared to sacrifice herself, but Qin Xiu dared not!
"Qin Xiu, you’re such a waste! A disgrace to the Imperial Guard Captain." Xu Dingsheng snorted coldly.
His voice was low, but it reached everyone’s ears.
The other soldiers’ faces were full of more mocking smiles.
Look at this tragic character, if she had died earlier, wouldn’t there have been less drama?
"It’s alright, Qingyi, don’t worry." Qin Xiu let little Qingyi quietly stand aside.
Little Qingyi cried, she was already at her wits’ end, forcibly placed by Qin Xiu not far behind her.
Qin Xiu was exercising her veins; indeed, there was something lacking in a woman’s physique, but defeating Xu Dingsheng wouldn’t be a problem.
Qin Xiu’s composure puzzled Lu Yi even more.
Her beautiful eyes blinked gently, she did not see any intense emotion in Qin Xiu. People often feel courageous in moments of agitation, but the black-haired woman before her seemed quite indifferent. She didn’t care about the taunts of other soldiers on the one hand, and responded calmly on the other.
"Does it seem, in her eyes, all this is insignificant? Is this the stable emotion the Imperial Guard Captain should have?" Lu Yi couldn’t comprehend.
Qin Xiu’s gaze met hers amidst the foggy rain, Lu Yi surprised for a moment, how resolute and serene was Qin Xiu’s gaze? Doesn’t she find her ambush disgraceful? Yet instead it’s gentle?
And in Lu Yi’s momentary daze, Qin Xiu kindly smiled and asked, "Your Majesty, shall we begin?"
"..."
Lu Yi gathered her thoughts and slowly nodded, her slender neck slightly moving, gaze falling on Xu Dingsheng.
Xu Dingsheng laughed wildly, wielding his sword as he entered the field, his foot directly kicking a not fully dead soldier of this country.
The soldier, originally lying on the rain-soaked ground, was kicked ferociously by him, sliding directly over three zhang, spraying blood!
The soldier was directly killed!
"Are you coming?" Xu Dingsheng sneered, "Let me show you what despair means!"
Little Qingyi stood nearby, weeping, motionless.
The soldiers stood nearby laughing wildly, their eyes all gleamed with madness.
Xu Dingsheng stood at the center of the field with his sword, licking the rain and blood from his lips, his arrogant eyes fixed on Qin Xiu, who was walking towards him step by step.
At a certain moment... the battle began!
"Cheer for General Xu, waste this Qin Xiu lackey!" The soldiers directly boiled over.
Xu Dingsheng’s sword was heavy; he first launched an attack on Qin Xiu, swinging his blade directly at her crown, the sword slashing through the surrounding rain, aiming to split her head open! Xu Dingsheng was once a bandit, later recruited by this country; as a bandit, he practiced sword skills, and with the bright, mighty blade in hand, he wielded it with proficiency, but it was just Qin Xiu after all!
