Volume 5: The Gathering of Storms Chapter 312: Delaying Tactics
"No! Absolutely not!" Ani raised her sword and resolutely objected, "I can't do such a thing. I would rather die in battle than let Lord Xu be humiliated!"
"Yes," Huo Anu felt the same way, "We can't give up Master Xu!"
"Alas!" Han Feier sighed helplessly, "You have followed the adults for so long, how can you be so stubborn? Can't you see that this is our delaying tactic?"
"What? A delaying tactic?" Annie's eyes lit up, as if she had thought of something.
"Oh..." Huo Anu had already understood what Han Feier meant.
At this moment, a group of martial arts masters had already blocked their way. These people were not pirates from Yongming City, and each of them possessed unique skills.
It would be harder than climbing to heaven to fight your way out of here!
"Don't we have signal arrows?" Han Feier said, "One of us will go out to ask for help, and the other will follow me to rescue Lord Xu!
"I just don't believe that we can't defeat that old woman together!"
oh……
Ani and Huo Anu then realized that Han Feier didn't really want to give Xu Zun up, but wanted to wait for the opportunity and not act rashly.
It seems that Han Feier is experienced and knows how to adapt.
At this time, Xu Zun himself was in a very bad condition.
He felt dizzy and seemed to have lost his ability to think normally.
He could vaguely sense that it was not advisable to stay here for long, but for some reason, his mind was filled with the images of those enchanting dancers.
He also knew that he was chosen by an old woman and might suffer an accident tonight, but he was not anxious at all and even thought that this was a very normal thing...
"Hey, hey, hey..." Han Feier saw that the way was blocked, and immediately raised his hands to explain, "Who said we are not following the rules? We just went to another place to watch the fun!
"Here..." She pushed Xu Zun forward, pointed at the old woman on the stage and said, "I'll give this person to you!"
"Spit," the Mad Knife Witch spat, then nodded with satisfaction, and then turned to ask the others, "How is it? I chose this man, is there anyone who wants to compete with me?"
No one responded to the question raised by the Crazy Knife Witch.
"Tsk..." someone whispered, "Only a lunatic would compete with an old woman for a man!"
"Yes," said another, "there aren't many women who know martial arts. This old woman just does what she wants!"
" That's great," another one said thankfully, "At least I won't be chosen again. You have no idea how miserable I would be..."
"Hahaha……"
Seeing that no one challenged her, the Crazy Knife Witch laughed and jumped off the stage with satisfaction.
Unexpectedly, after jumping off the stage, she suddenly became unhappy.
"Oh, there was no fight at all. What a bummer!"
After saying that, she actually started crying like crazy, and that sinister cry gave people goose bumps.
“Hehehe…” The next second, she actually giggled at Xu Zun again, “Luckily I have this young man to accompany me. Come, follow me. I promise you won’t waste this night…”
After saying that, she hooked her finger at Xu Zun. Xu Zun hesitated for a few seconds at first, but finally followed her obediently, leaving the arena area and walking towards the depths of the palace.
Han Feier winked at Ani and Huo Anu, meaning that they should act separately, one of them follow the old woman with him, and the other go out to ask for help.
However, before they could make any move, a man dressed as a scholar jumped onto the stage, pointed at Ani and said:
"This girl in blue is as beautiful as a fairy, rarely seen in the world. I am willing to fight three times and ask for compensation from her!"
this……
In an instant, the eyes of all the male warriors were focused on Annie again.
“Damn it!”
Ani wanted to cover her face with her robe. If she had known this would happen, she should have worn a veil like Ku Niang today.
Whoosh…
As a result, before the scholar finished speaking, a fat man dressed as a traveler jumped onto the stage and shouted:
"It just so happens that I also like this girl, so I will fight you in the first round!"
“No!” Unexpectedly, several people jumped onto the stage from behind, all pointing at Ani and saying, “We want to stand on the stage too, we want to challenge her, and we want this girl too!”
Seeing the commotion on the stage, Ani and the other three looked at each other in bewilderment.
Annie's cheeks flushed, and she felt like a piece of art being auctioned off, and being auctioned off forcibly.
Han Fei'er and Huo Anu were a little jealous, as they felt they were pretty good looking but no one came to snatch them away.
Of course, the three of them were more anxious, as this made it even more difficult for them to escape.
Sure enough, as soon as they stepped back, many people blocked their way.
At this moment, the stage was in chaos, with many people eagerly competing for Annie.
They were arguing non-stop, all wanting to be the champion first.
Han Feier was the smartest one. After seeing this situation, she shouted directly to the stage: "Since you all want to get my girl, then you can fight together! Whoever stands on the stage last will get it, right?"
"Sister Fei'er...oh..."
Ani was about to complain, but suddenly realized what Han Feier meant. Only if they fought and caused chaos would they have a chance to escape.
"Yes, that's a good idea," someone on the stage responded, and even showed his weapon, "Then I won't be polite!"
"Wait, wait," someone tried to stop them, "Have you forgotten the rule of winning three games in a row? This will break the rules!"
"No?" Although Han Fei'er didn't quite understand their rules, she urged quickly, "Even if we win three games in a row, as long as someone challenges us, don't we have to keep fighting?
"Since your goal is my girl, then naturally only the one standing last will be qualified?"
"Hey? Right..." The scholar shook his head, "That makes sense! In that case," he swung his hands, revealing two steel knives, "then I won't be polite either!"
After saying that, he rushed towards the fat walker first and slashed him with a knife!
The fat man was not a pushover either, waving a golden Zen staff and hitting him...
Just like that, the arena suddenly became noisy, and all the warriors on the stage started fighting.
"No way?" Han Feier pushed Ani to the front and asked, "Are there only a few of them? My girl likes the most powerful one!"
After hearing Han Fei'er's instigation and seeing Ani's stunning beauty, many warriors were tempted and actually jumped onto the stage to fight...
No way?
Han Feier didn't expect that these people were so brainless. They actually fell for it after he just instigated them a few words!
However, Han Feier also saw the problem. He found that all the men in the palace were in an abnormal state.
The men's eyes were shining, as if they were in some kind of obsession, not to mention guards like Dai Long, even Xu Zun was no exception.
No wonder there is no one outside!
Are the people who come in unable to leave, or do they not want to leave?
There were so many martial arts masters, plus the dancing beauties, and Shen Xingran from the prince's delegation whom Xu Zun knew...
What the hell is this place!!!
