Chapter 147: Snake Disaster
His Majesty raised his head and turned to Murong Xue, with kind of unspeakable light flashing in his eyes, “What do you think, Xue?”
“Your Majesty, I am seriously ill. It’s a little inconvenient to fight.” said Murong Xue flatly: Yuan Fangfei has a short fuse and enjoys fighting with people. But she is not interested to be her moving target…
“Stop lying! If you are really seriously ill, you could never have dodged dozens of my palms…” Yuan Fangfei interrupted her ruthlessly, with kind of cold light flashing in her eyes: Having practiced kung fu for so many years, this is the first time she has been fiddled around. She must kick her ass to vent her anger.
Murong Xue raised her eyebrows, “That was kind of instinctive reaction for survival. I know my kung fu is not at the same level as you. So I admit defeat…”
“How could you give up before you actually have a real fight? I hate cowards. Take this!” Yuan Fangfei gritted her teeth and then tipped on the ground and threw herself at Murong Xue with the long whip in her hand…
Watching the whip coming near, Murong Xue frowned: She doesn’t want to fight Yuan Fangfei, but Yuan Fangfei keeps pushing her. She has no choice now. Since Yuan wants this, she is gonna make her!
Murong Xue moved a bit and stabbed at Yuan Fangfei without dodging. At that very moment, people could only see a blue shadow and a white shadow getting intertwined together, while the brown long whip and the silvery soft sword weaving together, making one dazzled.
But how could they already start fighting without His Majesty’s order?
People all peeped at His Majesty who looked a little surprised but didn’t stop them anyway, which made them much relieved. Then they turned to the pleasure boat in silence.
.
Yuan Fangfei had superb kung fu, her moves kept changing unpredictably, while Murong Xue’s moves were quite simple but very effective. In an instant, they had already fought over dozens of moves.
Watching them locked together, people were all amazed: Yuan Fangfei looked big and tall, like a tower, whose kung fu was also at a superb level. She could even break off a big tree with a whip! Even those strong guards could not take over ten moves from her.
While Murong Xue was only a lady living in her boudoir, weak and sickly. Like that quick dodge just now, she could save her own life. But to meet Yuan Fangfei head on, shouldn’t she be beaten up or get crippled? But now it had been dozens of moves, she still hadn’t shown any sign of losing… This was incredible…
Mu Liufeng praised her while waving his folding fan now and then. She had inherited everything from uncle Yue. She was worthy to be member of Murong family.
Now Song Qingyuan looked both startled and angry, and nearly twisted the silk handkerchief in her hands into a Chinese doughnut! Since when had Murong Xue the bitch become so powerful? She even took the upper hand fighting Yuan Fangfei. This was unbearable…
She neither liked practicing kung fu nor knew anything about it. Otherwise she would have united with Yuan Fangfei to beat up Murong Xue already…
The raging fire was burning in Song Qingyan’s chest. She flapped on the handrail of the chair and felt a soft sense of touch spread into the center of her palm. She was a little surprised and lowered her head, only seeing a light cyan head sticking on her palm, staring at her with its eyes…
“Ah!” Song Qingyan screamed and immediately held back her hand. She then kept retreating with only astonishment in her eyes, shouting, “Snake! There’s a snake!”
On hearing her, all officials and their families looked down on the floor. It was all thin and long water snakes on the ground, on the desks and chairs…”Snakes…snakes…snakes…snakes everywhere…”
All the dowagers, ladies and misses were screaming, jumping, pushing each other, the whole high platform fell into a mess instantly…
His Majesty also got up, squinted his sharp eyes while watching the dense water snakes on the ground…
The eunuch stood in front of His Majesty and screamed while looking at the water snakes crawling towards their direction, “Help! Protect His Majesty…Protect His Majesty…”
The imperial guards immediately ran toward them and circled the emperor and the empress. They pulled out their swords and cut off the attacking water snakes fast. In an instant, snake blood splashed everywhere. The heads and bodies of the snakes were shuttling among the crowd. Everyone was scared to death, screaming, “Help…Ah…Help…Help…”
Murong Xue cast a glance at the messy high platform and said with a cold voice with her eyes narrowed, “Yuan Fangfei, stop! There’s snakes!”
“They are not here. Why bother? Take this!” Yuan Fangfei didn’t care about that at all. With her wrist turning over, her long whip aimed at Murong Xue ruthlessly…
Murong Xue frowned. When she was prepared to throw a kick, whoosh, a light cyan darted between them and bit Yuan Fang’s arm tightly. Pia! Yuan Fangfei fell into the lake…
When Murong Xue was about to check her out, the light cyan water snakes kept pouncing at her. She immediately swayed her sword to chop off those snakes. At that very moment, she saw Yuan Fangfei surfaced. Yuan grasped the snake entangling her arm and directly pulled it into two halves, while cursing, “Damn water snakes. How dare you bite me! Screw you! Screw you!”
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! More and more water snakes swam toward Yuan Fangfei, entangled her arms, waist, legs, chest and neck tightly. Yuan Fangfei tried to pull them off but failed because there were too many of them.
Her neck got entangled tighter and tighter, while her face turned to dark purple. And the air in her lung became less and less and she could hardly breathe. Things before her eyes became more and more blurry, and she was gradually losing her consciousness, but she still refused to close her eyes: I don’t wanna die. Never…
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! With the sharp sword qi sweeping by, those water snakes were all cut into halves in a split second. Yuan Fangfei immediately felt the fresh air surging into her lungs. She coughed badly and looked back with gratitude in her eyes.
It was Murong who was standing at the bow, with the sword in her hand. With that delicate face, bland eyes, and light blue hemline waving along with wind, she completely became one with the blue sky and green water, which stunned Yuan Fangfei, “You saved me?”
“Cut the crap! More water snakes are coming at you. If you wanna live, get on the boat now!” said Murong Xue flatly while trotting into the cabin.
Yuan Fangfei turned around and saw tens of water snakes were coming at her as Murong Xue had said. With her mouth twitched, she immediately used all her strength to jump onto the boat. Before she caught her breath, numerous snakes had already crawled onto the boat, making one’s blood freeze…
