Chapter 203: Chapter 202 Carrying the Princess Might Be Better
It is very difficult to discern the true strength of someone with a higher level than oneself before they make a move.
Qu Tong glanced at Su Hua deeply, her lips curving into a smile, "Because I know her."
Soon, without needing Su Hua to make a choice, someone forcefully broke open the hatch.
Xuan Ping and Hu Qing were held back, forcing Su Hua to protect Qu Tong as they exited the aircraft.
Su Hua hid Qu Tong behind a pile of building materials before facing off against the remaining attackers.
The several people with Lan Guofu were generally stronger than the twenty or so from before, presumably S-rank powerhouses on a par with Su Hua.
The situation was grim, and soon enough someone breached their defense and reached Qu Tong’s side, causing Xuan Ping to accidentally suffer a slash to his arm while protecting her.
Lan Guofu, who had been still until then, also approached Qu Tong.
"Madam, get behind me," Su Hua shouted to Qu Tong while battling her adversaries.
A moment’s distraction, and she was wounded anew.
Qu Tong didn’t go behind Su Hua to add to her burden but instead ran toward a stack of cylindrical steel materials.
Lan Guofu tried to suppress Qu Tong with his spiritual power, but Qu Tong’s pace remained unaffected.
Lan Guofu frowned slightly and ordered his remaining men to advance.
The men, possibly pre-warned by Lan Guofu to take her alive, didn’t employ spiritual power attacks and directly surrounded her instead.
A hint of coldness flashed through Qu Tong’s eyes as she saw the giant steel material blocking her way and, with a push of her hand, scrambled up onto it.
The heel of her shoe made it difficult to get a stable footing on the cylindrical steel, so Qu Tong simply kicked them off.
The men below exchanged confirming glances with Lan Guofu before they too started to climb up after her.
Qu Tong’s agility couldn’t match that of those who had come from the military, and as she was about to be caught up with, she pulled out a handgun from her Space Button and fired at the person behind her.
The first shot hit, but the second was blocked by a Spirit Power Barrier.
Since the last competition, the gun was still loaded with regular bullets, and Qu Tong now had no chance to switch them out.
Looking at just one more section of steel material to climb over.
Once she reached a spot where Xuan Ping and the others couldn’t see her, she could deal with them.
But just then, Su Hua was ambushed by Lan Guofu, smashing into the base of the steel material with a solid thud.
Blood trickled from the corner of Su Hua’s mouth as she clutched her stomach, struggling to half-kneel upright.
Qu Tong had to abandon climbing further. Just as she was about to deploy her silver Mecha, she suddenly remembered she had two other mechas.
Without time to think, Qu Tong deployed the Green Mecha crafted by Master Yan, whisking Su Hua away from the assailants ready to strike and laid her down on a nearby clearing.
Qu Tong carefully placed her on the ground and took an Energy Liquid from the Space Button using a mechanical arm, placing it next to Su Hua.
"Madam..."
Shock flashed in Su Hua’s eyes, having just narrowly escaped death.
Generally, normal people didn’t have mechas, including the trio with Xuan Ping.
Seeing the insignia on the chest of the mecha, Lan Guofu’s eyes darkened further, and he could no longer hide his identity, calling out directly, "Well, well, it seems the Bai Family’s mecha has already been successfully tested."
Qu Tong’s cockpit door opened, and she smirked sarcastically, "Lan Guofu, what you’re doing now is enough to put you behind bars for good."
Lan Guofu laughed wildly, "That only matters if someone knows about it. I’ve changed my mind. Since she’s so hard to catch, let’s all die together. You can blame yourself and your friend Jun Li for not appreciating what you had."
Lan Guofu gave the order to his thirty-plus men, "Leave no survivors."
He also summoned his Yellow Mecha.
Just then, the sound of the aircraft’s engines roared to life, and Qu Tong’s clothes and hair whipped around in the sudden gust, prompting her to quickly close the cockpit door.
Blue-purple lightning struck down, directly knocking Lan Guofu’s mecha to the ground.
This was the advantage of an Ability Awakener.
Qu Tong saw the pure black fighter jet and knew that Lan Guofu was doomed today.
Qu Tong went straight up to the nearby cylindrical steel and, unloading the mecha, sat at a high point to watch the spectacle.
The ones who came out of the fighter jet were Si Yuting and Jiang Zhou.
"Marshal, you’re finally here," Xuan Ping said, clutching one arm and finally heaving a sigh of relief.
Jiang Zhou went first to the more severely wounded Su Hua. After drinking the Energy Liquid that Qu Tong had left behind, her spiritual power and physical strength had recovered a great deal.
The lightning had damaged the energy store of the mecha; Lan Guofu’s body was still trembling from the electric shock, and he couldn’t hide the horror in his eyes no matter how hard he tried.
Gone was his initial arrogance; his face was ashen, and he looked as pitiful as a drenched dog.
Nobody else could escape either. If they weren’t knocked out by lightning, they were knocked out by Si Yuting’s hand-chops. And those who weren’t unconscious were tied up by Hu Qing and Xuan Ping.
After attending to Su Hua, Jiang Zhou tossed a bandage and medicine to Xuan Ping: "If your hand is injured, don’t move it around, the Marshal can handle this by himself."
Xuan Ping chuckled sheepishly and started bandaging himself.
By the time everything was nearly sorted out, the patrol team also arrived, led by Feng Haoran.
Si Yuting buttoned up his slightly loosened sleeve cuffs as he walked back.
Jiang Zhou and Xuan Ping also approached Qu Tong, concerned whether she was alright.
Qu Tong shook her head seriously.
As Si Yuting approached, others automatically cleared the way for him.
"Your Highness, why did you come back?" Qu Tong asked, tilting her head and smiling coyly.
However, Si Yuting looked at her feet dangling in the air, as white as jade, and frowned.
He reached out to hold her and brought her down, then checked the one shoe left beside her; the other might have fallen into a crevice between the steel.
He slightly turned his body to block the line of sight of others who were looking over.
Being held by Si Yuting like this, Qu Tong was a bit stunned.
She was covered in dirt, and her hands and feet were dirty.
"Your Highness, I’m dirty; put me down first, I can walk on my own," Qu Tong said, with her hands held up in the air, the action somewhat amusing.
"No trouble," Si Yuting said in a low and deep voice.
Alright, if Si Yuting himself didn’t mind, she shouldn’t either. Qu Tong directly placed her hands on Si Yuting’s shoulders.
Leaning close to Si Yuting’s ear, she whispered softly, "Your Highness, maybe choose a different posture next time; a princess carry might be better."
The warmth of her breath tickled his ear; it was tingling and numbing. Si Yuting tightened his arms and replied in a low voice, "Fine."
Without stopping, Si Yuting walked with Qu Tong towards his aircraft.
Qu Tong guessed that it must have been Xuan Ping who had informed Si Yuting, so she asked, "My brother is okay, right?"
"He’s fine. The third sibling has taken him away."
Qu Tong was relieved. She didn’t pursue who this third sibling was; as long as people were safe, that was all that mattered.
Si Yuting was indeed reliable in his work.
Feng Haoran caught up and asked, "Marshal Si, what about the second young master of the Lan Family?"
With no backward glance and a hint of coldness in his voice, Si Yuting replied, "Send them all to the military court."
"Understood," Feng Haoran answered and ran back.
The police started cuffing the people on the ground while sneakily glancing over at Qu Tong and Si Yuting.
Jiang Zhou clucked his tongue in admiration, "The Marshal really cherishes his lady."
Xuan Ping laughed loudly and carefreely, "Of course, the Marshal waited a long time for a wife. The lady is beautiful and capable, who wouldn’t cherish her?"
