Chapter 216 - I’ll Insta-Kill Whoever Comes
The little girl chuckled coldly and put the wild boar leg back onto the spit. Then, she raised her small and dainty hands and adjusted the crown on her head. “I know exactly what you’re trying to do. You’re definitely trying to trick me into giving you the crown so that you can become Queen, right?”
“Hah?”
Liu Qianhuan was stunned. She was taken aback by the little girl’s reply.
An Lin and Wang Xuanzhan were also stunned. They both thought that their ulterior motives had been seen through. Unexpectedly though, it was just the wild imaginations of a little girl. Even the foreign secretary almost got tripped up by this.
Fortunately though, none of them had displayed any sense of hostility. It looked as though they could still continue on with this conversation.
“That’s certainly not the case. I truly only want to admire your crown for a moment. If you don’t believe me, I can give you an invaluable toy as collateral,” Liu Qianhuan said sincerely.
Just as expected, she fished out a mobile phone and started explaining its functions to the curious little girl…
This plaything was extremely enticing to young children. Sure enough, the little girl’s interest was piqued. She walked to Liu Qianhuan’s side and looked curiously at the colorful contents on the phone, and her lips curled up into a smile.
“Hmm, interesting…” the little girl smiled sweetly.
A refreshing breeze blew over and all seemed tranquil and beautiful.
Apart from the fact that…
A small and dainty fist had already smashed into Wang Xuanzhan’s chest.
The speed of her punch was insanely quick. It was so quick that Liu Qianhuan only had time to widen her eyes in shock, and An Lin had no time to react at all.
Only Wang Xuanzhan managed to raise his hands slightly in an attempt to block this surprise attack.
However, this still wasn’t enough as the two of them had been standing too close together.
In order to hide his hostility, Wang Xuanzhan hadn’t fully activated his Ancient Dragon Bloodline, meaning that he wasn’t at the peak of his powers at this moment. This small and dainty fist, however, was like a deadly viper which suddenly struck out from its dark ambush.
Boom!
This fist was silent when it swung out. However, it was earth-shattering when it connected.
The shockwaves of the impact blasted outwards, sweeping Liu Qianhuan and An Lin off of their feet.
This strike blasted Wang Xuanzhan into the sky like a cannonball, and it also caused his bones to crack and his chest to cave in.
Wang Xuanzhan spat out a mouthful of blood which had bits of his internal organs mixed in.
The little girl exclaimed softly in surprise, and she fiercely stamped her foot on the floor. The force of the impact caused the ground crack and cave in, and her small and nimble body rocketed into the sky. Immediately, the loud crack of a sonic boom sounded behind her.
“Senior Wang!”
This all happened too quickly and too suddenly. By the time An Lin and Liu Qianhuan came to their senses, the little girl had already flown off after the severely injured Wang Xuanzhan.
Brilliant flashes of lightning arced through the pitch-black night sky as Wang Xuanzhan fully released his vast lightning domain. The mighty roar of a dragon also echoed through the surroundings.
Wang Xuanzhan was covered in dragon scales, and his spear appeared like a raging dragon. Amidst a vast pool of lightning, his spear viciously thrust forward toward the little girl before him with an indomitable will.
As before, the little girl swung out her simple and plain fist. However, it was this simple and plain fist which ripped through the lightning domain and smashed into the speartip.
Looking up toward them, An Lin found that their collision had distorted the surrounding air.
Then, an indescribable shockwave materialized into a hazy white front as it rippled outwards.
An ear-splitting explosion rocked the heaven and earth, and the mountains and lakes all trembled violently.
Wang Xuanzhan—who had already unleashed his full strength—spat out another mouthful of blood and was once again sent flying back.
…
“Huh? There’s a battle going on over there.”
“This lightning… It looks like the Heavenly Court’s Wang Xuanzhan!”
“They’re not trying to snatch the golden holy grail, right? Please don’t let them succeed!”
Seeing the raging battle in the distance, the three representatives of the Garden of Eden immediately transformed into streaks of white and dashed over. They had to fight for this golden holy grail!
The little girl once again trod upon the void and lunged toward Wang Xuanzhan. The corners of her lip curled up into a triumphant smile. “This is the last punch.”
Boom!
The shockwave of the fist blasted through Wang Xuanzhan’s body and upturned thousands of feet of the ground below…
“Heavenly Court’s Wang Xuanzhan, eliminated!”
A voice boomed through the skies.
Augus, Shirley, and Arthur stopped in their tracks. Looking at the little girl thousands of feet in front them, they drew in a sharp breath.
An Lin and Liu Qianhuan exchanged a glance. Without any hesitation, they immediately found an inconspicuous place to hide.
“This golden holy grail is far too terrifying,” An Lin said solemnly. “We can’t take it by force, we can only take it by ruse!”
Liu Qianhuan nodded and sighed in agreement. “This little girl is such a scheming child. Even though she’s so powerful, she still chose to trick us into letting down our guards before attacking…”
An Lin remained silent, and a cold chill spread through his body.
That was right, everyone was tricked by her! Having the incident involving the Blood Skeleton before as a precursor, they made the mistake of thinking that this little girl like war demon was also simple-minded and easy to trick.
Unexpectedly though, she played along with An Lin and the others and took advantage of their preconceptions to eventually dispose of their strongest member…
If Wang Xuanzhan was fully alert and wasn’t struck by the girl’s first punch, then he at least would’ve had the chance to escape even if he couldn’t defeat her.
After seeing her devastating punch, the three representatives of the Garden of Eden had already started to retreat resolutely.
They needed to give this matter further thought and discussion…
“A lion uses its full strength even when hunting for rabbits. Using some small tricks are actually fairly interesting.” The little girl giggled as she looked at the vanishing Wang Xuanzhan.
Then, she saw the three fleeing members of the Light Wing Clan, and her pretty little face darkened again.
“You guys…”
Boom!
She stamped her small and delicate foot, and the air around her exploded.
The white cone of air suddenly dissipated, and a thin white trail appeared behind the little girl as she quickly closed in on the three members of the Garden of Eden.
“… left without even greeting This Queen…!”
Her first punch was targeted toward the comparatively slow Arthur.
The little girl flew above him, and her small fist ferociously smashed down.
In this moment of great danger, Arthur activated a white light shield.
This light shield was shattered by the fist, and the impact of the strike had Arthur arch over like a drawn bow. The earth below ruptured with a loud rumble, and a fissure stretched out thousands of feet into the distance.
“So disrespectful~!”
The little girl finished speaking.
Arthur’s eyes bulged, and they slowly lost their focus. A golden protective barrier materialized around him.
“Garden of Eden’s Arthur, eliminated!”
As the little girl dealt with Arthur, Augus and Shirley fled another significant stretch of distance.
Seeing them flee so resolutely, the little girl frowned.
Glancing back at the dancing flames in the distance, she started to turn around and fly back toward the mountainside.
When Augus and Shirley saw the little girl give up on her chase, they both felt as if they had escaped from the clutches of death.
In fact, if the girl continued to pursue them with that terrifying speed of hers, even Augus couldn’t say with confidence that he would be able to shake her off.
On the clearing in the mountainside, the campfire still crackled and burnt strongly.
However, the surrounding earth was filled with cracks and pits. It looked as if the entire area was about to collapse.
The little girl landed lightly and walked up to the campfire. Then, she picked up the spit rod and looked at the burnt wild boar skewered upon it. She scrunched her face up and sighed. “Ah… It still got burnt…”
