Chapter 1557: Chapter 1537: The ’Yielding’ Woman
Nine arrows shot out in succession, and Luo Qianqian kicked her hind legs fiercely, leaping into the air. She locked onto her target fiercely diving towards Wang Mazi on the ground.
Wang Mazi looked up at her, not feeling the slightest panic from her attack, and directly swung his dagger to block the nine ice arrows, with a slight look of anticipation in his narrowed eyes.
Is this what they call throwing oneself into someone’s arms?
Suppressing his excitement, he put away his weapon and quietly watched Luo Qianqian. Naturally, he knew that Luo Qianqian wouldn’t try to kill him.
When Luo Qianqian was descending from the air with a dozen Ice Stabs, she saw Wang Mazi looking completely unprepared. In a hurry, she controlled the Ice Stabs to aim elsewhere.
No matter what, Wang Mazi was still a friend of Nine Heavens Pavilion. If anything happened, she’d be afraid of being scolded...
Wang Mazi wasn’t completely defenseless; he just watched Luo Qianqian in the air, flustered, retracting her attack with her face turning pale, and he was overjoyed.
He directly reached out to catch the flustered Luo Qianqian who was dropping to the ground, embracing her in his arms.
Suddenly, the audience fell into silence. What was going on? A good fight had turned into a love scene?
Luo Shufan even stood up and cursed loudly: "Damn! I&/?％＄￥"
"How dare he take advantage of Qhianqhian, damn it, let’s have Xiao Tian guard the courtyard, if he dares to come again, Xiao Tian will bite him to death!" Luo Yanhai was also so shocked his jaw almost dropped. What situation was this? Turning a fight into something else so suddenly?
Old Master Luo, full of disbelief, pointed at Wang Mazi on the stage with a trembling hand, looking at Yang Feng beside him with disbelief: "I considered you a friend, and your disciple dares to take advantage of my granddaughter?!" He snatched the food from Yang Feng’s hand and threw it to Luo Xisi: "Keep it, feed it to the dog at home!"
"...Dad, Xiao Tian is a wolf." Luo Xihan was also furious, but thought that his niece being excellent and pursued wasn’t too strange, and being held was better than watching her fall to the ground painfully, right?
And Luo Qianqian casually took out a Silver Needle and stabbed it into Wang Mazi’s neck, smiled slightly at him, then leaped and landed on the ground: "Want to take advantage of this auntie? Not a chance!" In the next second, she kicked Wang Mazi off the platform, not even looking as she leisurely walked off.
Wang Mazi felt heartbroken. Though he knew Luo Qianqian would be angry, he truly didn’t realize she would be so underhanded... That needle wasn’t exactly painful, but... it made him suddenly unable to move...
All he felt was a tingling numbness at the point where the needle struck...
When it was announced that Nine Heavens Pavilion had won, Wang Mazi still hadn’t reacted. His backup teammates hurried onto the stage to carry him back to the waiting area, looking at him with concern.
Fortunately, Wang Mazi returned to normal after a quarter of an hour, or else those two really would’ve gone to find Luo Qianqian.
"Mazi, can’t you be less reckless?!" Upon eye contact, the two looked at Wang Mazi in exasperation and started scolding him.
It’s just as well that the rest of the matches hadn’t ended and no one else could know what happened on the main stage, or else everyone would’ve been furious.
However, Wang Mazi was full of pride and didn’t seem saddened by their scolding at all.
It was the first time he’d been so close to Shiqi. Girls really are different from boys, their bodies are soft and fragrant, unlike these two next to him who were stinky...
Thinking this, he looked at the two chattering people beside him with disdain.
Instantly, the two were even more infuriated. What was going on?! They’d said only a few words and were already being disliked?
The daydreaming Wang Mazi naturally couldn’t be brought back by their anger. He was full of excitement and had no time to pay attention to them, so for now, they had eight points.
When the other four heard Wang Mazi lost, they weren’t surprised at all since the opponent was Luo Qianqian. Forget Wang Mazi, any one of them wouldn’t dare make a move when facing her. Having eaten her food and taken her things, it was really embarrassing to act against her.
But upon hearing from the other two how he lost, they were utterly shocked and full of disbelief.
Watching Wang Mazi now, they only had anger in their eyes.
What a joke?! Taking advantage of Shiqi girl? How would they have the nerve to go mooch off food and drinks at Nine Heavens Pavilion?!
Never mind them, even Yang Feng was exasperated; this brat, making himself happy and not caring about his master’s joy.
For days, the only joy he’d found was having a little drink and a snack with Luo Guohui, and wasn’t this kid taking it away?!
In contrast to the turmoil at Sky Inquiry Tower, Nine Heavens Pavilion was better off since they were the "victims."
"Yan, later help me coat all the Silver Needles with various medicines." Luo Qianqian said calmly, tossing down a box of Silver Needles.
She used to use Silver Needles for a lethal strike and to buy herself time. But now? They’re just concealed weapons. They’re as thin as hair, and you barely feel anything when they enter your body. Once you do feel it... the medicine’s effect is already in play.
"Okay." Yan replied calmly, putting away Luo Qianqian’s wooden box.
Luo Shufan also pulled Luo Qianqian close, looking her over anxiously, then hugged her tightly: "You scared me to death. How could you risk your safety for others? Are you stupid?"
"Bro, I couldn’t let him get severely injured, could I? I’m fine, just used a lot of energy retracting my moves earlier. A little rest and I’ll be good." she said.
There was still a half-hour break between the competitions to catch her breath, so she wouldn’t go onto the stage like this.
Luo Shufan could only nod, having nothing else to say.
In his eyes, his sister was the most important; but there were still other people at Nine Heavens Pavilion, and he couldn’t ignore its future. So, even if he wanted to cut Wang Mazi into pieces and make dumpling filling out of him, it was just a thought, unable to be acted upon.
"But I discovered a secret. Everyone, come closer; let’s talk quietly." Luo Qianqian waved her small hand, and everyone gathered around: "Just now, after Wang Mazi disappeared, I couldn’t locate him with my eyes or spiritual power, but his movements stirred the breeze, which is negligible outdoors but crucial in this indoor arena. Also, he can’t attack or defend with Spiritual Power when hiding; even a slight spiritual fluctuation can’t escape detection by spiritual power, so he can only use physical attacks, like cold weapons."
"So, what then?"
"So? If I can cover the platform with Ice Stabs, he naturally can’t hide, and if there are Ice Stabs around his hiding spot, I can detect him..."
"Are we supposed to cover the whole platform with water?" Yann Yao frowned slightly. Luo Qianqian could easily do that, but he didn’t understand the molecular rearrangement she mentioned.
"It would be great if we had Light Attributes."
