Chapter 718 New and old grudges
"Brother, is Ao Jie's injury too serious? How could he have been knocked away so easily?"
Wu Yue'er's eyes were filled with disbelief. She knew Ao Jie's strength very well, otherwise she wouldn't have brought him to the Song family to provoke them.
Song Yanzhou was indeed very strong back then, and his strength was exceptional, but he was seriously injured and only managed to survive by chance. He couldn't possibly be that strong.
Who would have thought that this move... would reveal such astonishing strength!
Wu Jingshuo's expression was solemn. "Although Ao Jie was injured, Song Yanzhou's move alone is enough to prove that his strength has not only not weakened, but has become even stronger than before!"
Even from this distance, he could feel the ferocious and terrifying power of the energy he had used when he made the move.
"What? Does that mean Ao Jie is no match for him?"
Wu Yue'er's expression changed. She had been hoping to see Song Ruozhen crying her eyes out today. If Ao Jie was no match for her, wouldn't her hopes be dashed?
Seeing her startled expression, Wu Jingshuo became even angrier. "I already said that today's challenge is null and void, but you just wouldn't listen!"
"You caused trouble in the Qi Yue palace before, but you haven't shown any restraint here, only constantly creating trouble!"
"It's one thing for you to keep embarrassing yourself, but you also have to drag me down with you. Do you think I don't have any pride?"
Wu Jingshuo was furious. Their arrival in the Chu You Dynasty represented not only themselves, but also the entire Qi Yue Dynasty.
Originally, they could have gotten married smoothly, and the emperor was quite tolerant of them. But now, all the trouble has caused, and even he himself finds it all a joke!
Wu Yue'er's mind went blank when she was suddenly scolded by Wu Jingshuo.
Her brother had always been very tolerant of her, and even when she caused trouble, he had never said anything bad about her. But now he was actually throwing such a tantrum at her!
She turned her gaze and saw Song Ruozhen's delighted expression. She was so calm and composed, as if she had never been worried at all, as if they were the ones who had been clowns from the very beginning.
On the dueling platform, the battle did not end after Song Yanzhou knocked Ao Jie away.
He was equally amazed by his own strength. His fifth sister had been helping him to regulate his body and had even prepared pills to help him practice martial arts.
Since taking the pill, he had keenly sensed that his entire state was different, but he hadn't had much opportunity to take action during this time.
He only knew that his martial arts skills had improved, but he didn't know exactly how much.
It wasn't until he clashed with Ao Jie that he realized his strength had improved so much without him even noticing—it was simply unbelievable!
Ao Jie was beaten so badly that even though he used all his skills, he was no match for him and was completely suppressed. He didn't even have a chance to fight back.
"When did Big Brother's martial arts skills become so amazing?"
Song Jingshen looked surprised and turned to Song Zhiyu beside him, "Have you noticed anything since you've been practicing martial arts with your elder brother lately?"
"My eldest brother was already incredibly strong, and since taking the medicine given to him by my fifth sister, his strength and speed have become even greater."
His current strength isn't surprising, but this Ao Jie is really nothing special. He was so arrogant before; I thought he was something special!
Song Zhiyu scoffed, finding it utterly ridiculous!
"If we had known he was only so-so, we wouldn't have had to put in so much effort. Big Brother could have taken care of him directly!"
Song Yanzhou shook his head. He had been in business for so many years and had seen all kinds of people. He never expected that Ao Jie, even as a general, would still like to brag so much.
They dare to be arrogant in front of them without any real skills; they really aren't afraid of making a fool of themselves.
Song Ruozhen turned to look at Chu Junting, her clear eyes sparkling with amusement, "Those people have all been sent to Shuntian Prefecture, their identities should be able to be found out, right?"
"Don't worry, since you've done something wrong, there's no way you can escape it."
Chu Junting understood his wife's meaning. Ao Jie had used underhanded methods, and now that he had been caught, there was no way he could escape. They would all have to pay the price.
However, the price should be set by Wu Jingshuo himself, not by them, to avoid them becoming the villains.
The Qi Yue Dynasty deserves an explanation for this matter!
"It seems that this excitement is truly one thing after another."
Song Ruozhen's lips curled slightly. She was afraid that Wu Jingshuo would not dare to say anything after returning to the Qi Yue Dynasty, and would be severely punished.
Do not live by sin.
When Wu Jingshuo first arrived in the capital, he was fine, but now, in just a short time, even his appearance has changed.
As for Wu Yue'er, it's even more obvious that after this incident, all the princes will have to find ways to avoid her, and none of them will dare to marry her.
"boom!"
Ao Jie fell to the ground again, but couldn't get up at all.
"If we don't admit defeat, we'll be beaten to death."
Song Yanzhou stared coldly at Ao Jie, his eyes filled with murderous intent. The inhuman torture he had endured on the battlefield often haunted him in the middle of the night, sending chills down his spine.
Ao Jie broke his legs and severed his Achilles tendons, torturing him bit by bit. He could never forget the painful and humiliating scenes!
Ao Jie looked at Song Yanzhou, a deep sense of fear welling up inside him.
He wanted to admit defeat; if he didn't, he would only face death!
Unfortunately, he had no idea what Song Yanzhou had done to him, so he was unable to make a sound.
To everyone else, this scene appeared as Ao Jie refusing to admit defeat!
"Since you refuse to admit defeat, then we can only settle this with our lives."
The indifference in Song Yanzhou's eyes grew stronger, and then he slammed his fist hard into Ao Jie's chest!
In that instant, everyone seemed to hear the sound of a rib breaking.
"what--"
At this moment, Ao Jie finally made a sound, but it was a painful scream.
When Wu Yue'er saw Ao Jie suddenly spit out a mouthful of blood and then collapse completely as if he had lost all his strength, a bad premonition arose in her heart.
"Brother, is Ao Jie dead?"
She wanted Song Yanzhou dead, not Ao Jie!
"stop!"
Wu Jingshuo had already shouted out. Ao Jie was a great general who had escorted them here. If he died like this, he would not be able to explain it when he returned.
When Song Yanzhou saw Wu Jingshuo shout "Stop!", he immediately stopped.
"It's just a martial arts competition, why go to such lengths to kill?"
"Prince Wu, today's duel is supposed to continue until one side concedes defeat, and no third party is allowed to interrupt. What you did is a violation of the rules, isn't it?"
Song Lin feigned confusion. This guy broke the rules himself, yet he wanted to blame them?
"Yan Zhou just asked, and it was Ao Jie who refused to admit defeat. I believe everyone saw that, right?"
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement. "That's right! We are all witnesses!"
