Allure of a Country Maiden
Chapter 500 - 498

Chapter 500: Chapter 498

Li Mingfang could not get closer, even if she had inner strength, she couldn’t fight from a distance!

She felt frustration and indignantly said, "Rui’an County Master, you are despicable to use hidden weapons!"

Xiao’er sneered upon hearing this, "You did not say I couldn’t use them! Besides, do you think you could just dictate when to use inner strength and when not to?"

"Right! If you can’t win, just admit defeat! Learn from Rui’an County Master; she’s so modest! " Di Junya was overjoyed seeing Li Mingfang beaten to a pulp!

"Rui’an County Master had already admitted inferiority in martial arts and quit, but Li Mingfang was stubborn and now blames her for using hidden weapons! I’ve seen shameless people, but never this shameless." Fu Ranhui also chimed in.

Di Junya and Fu Ranhui found a common dislike, as both were side split with sarcastic remarks.

Li Mingfang, being impetuous and easily angered, was infuriated by their words. She used all her power, blocking the flying silver needles while rushing forward using Qinggong.

Seeing her speed, Xiao’er was so frightened she forgot all about gracefully scattering flowers, and just ran!

Li Mingfang finally got close to Xiao’er and quickly struck a palm towards Xiao’er’s back.

The wind from the palm strike was strong, and Xiao’er didn’t need to look back to know that it could make her spit blood.

Shangguan Xuanyi, while riding back, saw Xiao’er running towards him from a distance, with Li Mingfang in hot pursuit.

He then sped up his horse.

Just as Li Mingfang’s palm was about to hit Xiao’er’s back, he quickly dismounted, pulled Xiao’er into his arms, and countered Li Mingfang’s palm strike.

Li Mingfang immediately stepped back and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Are you alright?" Shangguan Xuanyi asked Xiao’er, bending his head low.

"No, I’m good at fleeing."

Fu Ranhui and others who had rushed over to check on Xiao’er could not help but face-palm hearing her shamelessly brag about her escaping skills.

After adjusting her breath, Li Mingfang said, "Sixth Prince, we were merely duelling! You shouldn’t have intervened!"

A duel where one uses all their strength to strike at his lady? Does she think everyone’s brain functions like a pig’s?

Shangguan Xuanyi looked at Xiao’er, "Why did she try to kill you?"

"Although Miss Li meant to duel, I had already surrendered, admitting that my martial arts was inferior. But she still insisted on attacking me! Brother Shangguan, she just wanted to vent her anger on me!" Xiao’er unconsciously adopted a pitiful tone in front of Shangguan Xuanyi.

Who had she offended? Had she known, she would have never allowed Zhao Youwei to help Xi Li release the kites! She could barely handle Li Mingfang’s extreme jealousy.

Fu Ranhui and others nodded unanimously after hearing this.

"Rui’an County Master, don’t wrongly accuse others, I didn’t hear you say anything!" Li Mingfang responded, a flash in her eyes.

"Miss Li, I didn’t expect you to have poor hearing at such a young age! Fine, I’ll say it again, I admit defeat, my martial arts is inferior to yours. Please don’t challenge me again! Did you hear me now? Otherwise, I can only assume that you intended to kill me under the guise of a duel!" Xiao’er didn’t want to provoke an impulsive, jealous, and competitive woman.

"Yes, I heard it all clearly, did you? If not, I can repeat it once more for you." Di Junya piped in.

"Junya, why are you always against me? You didn’t used to be like this!" Li Mingfang was so angry that she felt like spitting out blood again.

"I’ve always been fiercely against evil! Didn’t you know? Don’t just say next time if you spar with Rui’an County Master, she will think you’re deliberately trying to kill her! Even now, I believe you did it deliberately!" Di Junya confidently responded.

In the past, she didn’t realize that Li was such a fickle person who couldn’t take responsibility for her actions and let others take the blame. She had genuinely treated Li like a future sister-in-law! Could it be the same?!

Xiao’er gave a thumbs up to Di Junya!

Li Mingfang was so aggrieved that she spat out blood again. Were they implying she was a wicked person?

"Miss Li, I will duel with you! One palm, win or lose!" After speaking, Shangguan Xuanyi didn’t wait for Li Mingfang to agree and advanced to attack her.

Understanding the ins and outs of the event, Shangguan Xuanyi, who had always defended those close to him, decided to pay her back in her own coin.

Li Mingfang went pale with fear. She was too close to escape, so she braced herself to fight.

Their palms collided.

Li Mingfang was sent flying by Shangguan Xuanyi’s palm.

Li Mingjun ran over and caught her. Seeing that Li Mingfang spat out a mouthful of blood, he glared fiercely at Xiao’er and Di Junya and said, "I won’t let this go! Sister, let’s leave!"

Having said that, he supported Li Mingfang and left.

"Wrongdoer playing victim!" Di Junya had no fear at all.

"Absolutely unreasonable! Can’t discern right from wrong! Don’t tell me she enjoys fighting and killing so much that she just wants to pick fights with anyone she doesn’t like?!" Fu Ranhui also voiced her opinion, suspecting her assumptions could be true.

"Very likely! Everyone, be careful from now on. Don’t let her challenge you to a duel out of the blue. If you refuse, she might treat it as if she didn’t hear you. And just like that, your life could be in danger!" Di Junya nodded solemnly in agreement.

Hearing Fu Ranhui’s words, the girls all changed color. Thinking to themselves: they had no martial arts skills or even running practice since they were only taught to walk slowly, so how would they escape?

Xiao’er supposed that temperament decided fate. The royal family would feel disgraced by Li Mingfang’s outrageous behavior, and she would have a hard time in the future.

After returning home, everyone told their mothers about the incident from the suburbs. Their mothers, not appreciating Li Mingfang’s tomboyish nature, wanted to limit their daughter’s interactions with her. Now it was decided: cherish life and stay away from Li Mingfang!

......

A few days after the Kite Festival, Xiao’er received a letter.

She opened it and was surprised at what she read.

Fu Ranhui was asking her for help in an urgent matter. What could it be?

Xiao’er did not give it much thought, she would find out when she went to meet her.

At the Admiral’s Mansion, Zhao Youwei also received a letter.

He was first surprised, then thoughtful after reading the contents.

Rui’an County Master required his help and wanted to meet?

What could she possibly need his help with? Zhao Youwei fell into deep thought.

If she requested his presence, then it must be something that the Sixth Prince couldn’t help with. But what could the Sixth Prince not help with?

He thought of a person - Li Mingfang!

On the day of the Kite Festival, after he left, Li Mingfang caused trouble for Rui’an County Master. He later heard about the incident from his sister, realising his actions had inadvertently caused her distress.

Did Li Mingfang cause trouble again?

Indeed he needed to resolve the issue he caused.
