The Humble Family's Daughter Has A Spatial Pocket!-Chapter 880 - 766, Lashing

Life or death, it doesn’t matter!

Yelu Qianhua seemed not to have expected a delicate woman from Daxia to utter such words; caught off guard, she momentarily forgot to respond.

Daohua looked at Yelu Qianhua, "What’s the matter, is Princess Qianhua scared?" She threw the same words back at her.

Following that, Daohua looked around at everyone present and declared loudly, "Daxia longs for safety on the borders, but this is not an excuse for a Xiliao Princess to do as she pleases in Daxia." freewēbnoveℓ.com

"Just because you fancy someone, he must marry you? If you challenge me to a fight, must I accept? Do you think Daxia is your Xiliao?"

Saying this, she glanced toward the Xiliao Delegation.

"Is this your idea of seeking friendship? I thought you came here more for showing off your military might."

The Emperor watched Daohua with an amused smile. Indeed, she was well worthy of being his uncle’s disciple; she was as unrelenting with her words as her master.

Seeing the people from Xiliao being rebuked, the officials from Daxia were indeed very pleased. Of course, the faces of those from the Jiang Family faction weren’t so pleasant upon seeing Daohua steal the limelight.

"What’s there to be scared of? We women of Xiliao have never been ones to shrink back. But you, don’t go crying for your daddy and mommy when I beat you," Yelu Qianhua snapped back at Daohua after regaining her composure.

Daohua ignored Yelu Qianhua’s provocation, looked at the Emperor, and noticing his leisurely demeanor with no sign of objection, she flicked her newly won Yellow Whip.

The sound of it slicing through the air rang out.

Daohua cocked her head and smiled at Xiao Yeyang, "Just wait, I’m going to use this whip you won for me to teach someone who doesn’t know the extent of the heavens and the earth a good lesson."

She had witnessed this Princess’s prowess back at Luwei Bay; her skills were not bad, but still no match for her.

Having said that, Daohua walked down from the stands toward the central arena.

Xiao Yeyang watched Daohua, a touch of worry in his eyes. Even though his uncle had guided Daohua in the art of the whip during his two years at the Northern Frontier, his Yiyi had delicate skin and tender flesh; what if she were accidentally hurt by the rough-skinned Princess of Xiliao?

Madam Li and others also looked worried.

But the rest of the crowd was eager to watch.

Daohua had planned to ride horses in the enclosure with Xiao Yeyang, so for this occasion, she came dressed in a clean and neat outfit.

Daohua strode towards the arena, her skirt fluttering and her smile bright and vivid, exuding an exceptionally lively and spirited charm.

Yelu Qianhua glanced at Daohua, recalling her earlier remark about life or death, and snorted coldly before asking her attendant to bring her twin sabers.

Seeing Yelu Qianhua taking up arms, a murderous intent suddenly flashed in Xiao Yeyang’s eyes.

The Emperor knew his uncle’s abilities and was also curious about the disciple’s skills, which is why he hadn’t intervened earlier. But upon seeing Yelu Qianhua with sabers as her weapon, his expression cooled.

Yelu Hao, upon seeing this, said with a smile, "It was that young lady who just mentioned ’life or death without concern.’"

At that, Wu Jingyi called out to Daohua, who was already standing on the platform, "Countess of Shengping, Prince Yelu said ’life or death without concern,’ so you need not be cautious on account of the Xiliao Princess’s status."

Upon hearing this, Yelu Hao’s expression changed immediately.

At this moment, Yelu Kangda spoke up, "Your Majesty, Xiliao wishes to coexist peacefully with Daxia. My sister admires Little Prince Xiao, and that’s why she suggested a duel with your country’s Countess. Let’s prioritize harmony in this contest."

No sooner had he finished speaking than Daohua and Yelu Qianhua already engaged in combat on the platform.

Daohua, seeing that Yelu Qianhua wielded sabers, didn’t bother to exchange any pleasantries; she lashed out with her whip and launched the first attack.

Xiao Yeyang breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this.

Daohua’s whip was suited for long-range attacks; as long as she kept Yelu Qianhua at a distance, she wouldn’t get hurt.

Yelu Qianhua hadn’t expected Daohua to strike so swiftly and failed to dodge in time, her cheek brutally whipped, the pain causing her to instantly break out in a cold sweat.

However, when she drew back her hand from her face, she discovered there were no wounds on her face, just the muscles of her face twitching violently.

This realization sent a chill through Yelu Qianhua’s heart,, and she immediately understood that this delicate-looking lady was a skilled martial artist. Just by observing how the whip moved in her hands as if it were alive, it was clear she excelled in whip techniques.

She had been careless!

Before Yelu Qianhua could think of a countermeasure,, Daohua’s whip struck again, its attack incredibly fierce and accompanied by a whistling sound through the air. Yelu Qianhua reached out to block the whip, but her knife was instantly entangled, and with a swift pull from Daohua, it was wrested from her hand.

Seeing this, the people in the stands couldn’t help but sit up straight.

The people of Daxia were excited and surprised; they had not expected Daohua to be so skilled, nor had they anticipated that the Princess of Xiliao, who had been boasting so fiercely, would turn out to be all bark and no bite.

The faces of the Xiliao Delegation, on the other hand, were clouded with gloom.

Yelu Qianhua’s martial arts prowess was indeed considered good among Xiliao women.

Generally, women from Xiliao were supposed to be stronger than those from Daxia. When the two faced off, a woman from Xiliao would have the advantage in height over a woman from Daxia.

By this line of reasoning, Yelu Qianhua should have easily defeated the Countess of Shengping.

Who would have thought that the whip techniques of the Countess of Shengping would be so exquisite?

The Emperor’s previous worries dissipated as he watched Daohua, graceful and agile in her movements, showing no mercy with the whip. He couldn’t help but smile.

Truly, this was the upbringing of her uncle. Seeing each strike of the whip hitting its mark, he could almost feel the pain on behalf of the Xiliao Princess.

On the platform, Yelu Qianhua, now without her knife, could only defend passively. She wanted to get close to Daohua, but Daohua’s whip moved too quickly, and her footwork was too swift; there was no chance for Yelu Qianhua.

She had chosen the wrong weapon!

If she had used a whip as well, she wouldn’t be in the position of only being able to passively take hits like now.

Daohua wielded her whip with full force, not holding back in the slightest. After two years of rigorous training from her master, she was now capable of using a whip technique that did not damage the skin but could cause severe internal injuries.

It might not look like the Xiliao Princess had any injuries now, but Daohua assured herself that once the Princess went back, she would likely be bedridden for several months.

"Princess Qianhua, if you concede, I will cease."

"You think I will concede? Dream on!"

Seeing that Yelu Qianhua remained stubborn, Daohua became even less merciful.

Yelu Qianhua was in pain from the whipping, but she dared not concede defeat willingly. Firstly, she could not shame Xiliao, and secondly, her eldest brother had reached an agreement with the Jiang Family, and she was to marry Xiao Yeyang; otherwise, the agreement would be void.

If she were to ruin her brother’s significant planning, he would not let her off the hook.

So, even if she was in agony, she bit down and endured.

"Crack, crack, crack!"

The sound of the whip cracking through the air continued to echo on the platform.

The Emperor raised an eyebrow as he glanced at Yelu Hao and Yelu Kangda; these two were certainly ruthless, unwilling to speak up and prevent further punishment.

Unwilling to be suppressed and beaten like this, Yelu Qianhua grew fierce, no longer dodging. She grabbed her knife and let the whip lash her, recklessly stabbing towards Daohua.

Xiao Yeyang, watching this, felt a sudden tightness in his chest.

As Yelu Qianhua, with a fierce expression, charged at her, Daohua withdrew her whip and with an aerial lateral somersault to the left, followed by several spins, she dodged the incoming knife attack from Yelu Qianhua.

"Crack!"

"How dare you lust after my man; you’re asking for a beating."
