The transmigrated wife is crazy and ruthless.

Chapter 78 Small Case

When Li Cunxiao saw Feng Yunniang trying to assassinate Qiu Ziyue, Qi Yuxuan knocked away her flying knife with his sword. After Lu Yuanchangming fed him a muscle-softening powder and he collapsed to the ground, Li Cunxiao immediately ordered his men to lock Feng Yunniang in the dungeon and whispered a few words to the chief.

The official announced from the high platform, "Ladies and gentlemen, someone has just been arrested for wielding a knife and injuring people in public, disrupting order. Please rest assured that no disturbances will be tolerated at this venue. If such incidents occur again, we will immediately take action."

After being startled, the audience gradually calmed down upon hearing Du Zhi's words.

The members of the Fire, Water, Thunder, and Iron gangs all fell silent. They dared not utter a word, knowing that offending the officials could lead to dire consequences.

Huo Lengxiong of the Fire Serpent Sect whispered, "Fengyun Niang, when will this silly woman grow up?"

At this moment, the chief announced from the stands that due to the disturbance caused by the assassins, which had disturbed all the contestants and spectators, the sword fighting competition would now be interrupted for a break, which would be extended from one incense stick's time to three. The spectators were asked to take a short rest.

Li Cunxiao asked Qiu Ziyue tenderly, "Sister-in-law, are you alright?"

Qiu Ziyue said, "It's a small matter, nothing to worry about."

Qiu Ziyue sat on the high platform and took out the small bottle of medicine that Lu Yuanchangming had given him from the cloth bag he carried with him.

Lu Yuanchangming sat down next to Qiu Ziyue, displaying his "simp" behavior, and handed Qiu Ziyue the water bottle he had prepared earlier with a smile.

Qiu Ziyue didn't stand on ceremony, took the water bottle and swallowed the pills.

Lu Yuan said, "Miss Qiu, just take this pill. How are you feeling now?"

Qiu Ziyue soon felt relaxed all over, her heart warmed, her meridians flowed smoothly, and a powerful force surged from her chest and abdomen.

“This feels pretty good,” Qiu Ziyue said.

"Hehe, that's good, that's good. I gave it to you yesterday but you didn't want it. Now you know the medicine works," Lu Yuan said.

"Tch, I'm not stupid, and I'm not made of steel. Besides, you gave me this pill for free, so why not take it? Hey, by the way, does taking this pill count as cheating?" Qiu Ziyue asked Lu Yuanchangming.

"What cheating? You didn't do anything," Lu Yuanchangming asked, puzzled.

“You don’t know that in our world, the Olympic Games require testing, and if someone has taken performance-enhancing drugs, they will be kicked out,” Qiu Ziyue whispered.

"This? What is this? I don't understand what you're saying. But these pills are all made by myself using top-quality tonics," Lu Yuan said.

“Oh, so it’s a natural supplement that doesn’t contain preservatives or any prohibited substances, right?” Qiu Ziyue blinked and said.

"Hmm? Don't understand? But this is definitely not the behavior of a petty person, so you can use it with confidence," Lu Yuanchangming said, scratching his head.

On the other side, Qi Yuxuan saw Qiu Ziyue and Lu Yuanchangming whispering to each other.

He thought to himself, "It's only been a short time, but their relationship has developed so quickly."

Qi Yuxuan really wanted to call Lu Yuanchangming over and have him take Qiu Ziyue home for the wedding ceremony. That way, he could be incredibly grateful.

Qi Yuxuan wanted to avoid seeing it and so he closed his eyes and sat down to rest.

While everyone was resting, two long arrows suddenly flew out from a distance and shot directly towards Li Keyong in the stands.

Everyone was shocked. Just as Qiu Ziyue was about to fly to intercept the flying arrow, Lu Yuanchang said, "Miss Qiu, you should rest first. Leave this to me."

Lu Yuanchangming used his lightness skill to chase after the assassin.

Li Cunxiao, who was on the platform, immediately flew to Li Keyong's side, quickly took off his outer robe, used it to block and bind the two flying arrows, and then quickly tied them up and put them in his hand.

Li Cunxiao's speed and power amazed Qiu Ziyue, considering that the range of Tang Dynasty bows and arrows was 100 to 200 meters.

The archers in the distance were incredibly accurate and lethal, and Li Cunxiao's ability to intercept two flying arrows was truly remarkable.

Lu Yuanchangming used his lightness skill to bring the archer back and throw him at Li Keyong's feet.

"Tell me, who sent you to assassinate me? Confess honestly, or I'll tear you apart with five horses!" Li Keyong roared.

The archer, terrified, exclaimed, "It's Lord Zhu Wen!"

“I bet it’s you, you scoundrel Zhu, daring to play with arrows in front of me. I was 13 when I shot two ducks with one arrow,” Li Keyong said.

“Cunxiao, return the arrow to him,” Li Keyong said.

"Yes," Li Cunxiao said, then flung off his outer robe, took out two long arrows, and used his inner force to send them flying, piercing the archer's abdomen. The archer fell to the ground, and the surrounding soldiers dragged him away.

Everything was done so quickly and without a doubt.

Qi Yuxuan, Qiu Ziyue, and their three senior brothers closed their eyes to rest, as if everything that had happened had nothing to do with them, but they knew all about it.

The audience was stunned, and some people fled in panic, while the bolder ones stayed to watch.

A moment later, Lu Yuanchangming sat down next to Qiu Ziyue again.

"Miss Qiu, are you alright? Look how capable I am! Consider marrying me; I'll definitely give you a sense of security," Lu Yuanchangming asked.

“Go away, I can handle this myself. Oh, you guys killed that sniper. He was pretty good, it’s a shame he died,” Qiu Ziyue said.

"What sniper?" Lu Yuanchangming asked, completely bewildered.

“That archer, you’re so stupid,” Qiu Ziyue said.

"Hmm? Archers are also called snipers?" Lu Yuanchangming muttered to himself.

Three incense sticks burned quickly, and a sword duel between Qi Yuxuan and Qiu Ziyue officially began.

"Look! The two who made a bet are about to duel! My God, how will they live as a couple? Sword against sword!" someone in the audience whispered.

Seeing that the two contestants were ready, the judge loudly announced the start of the competition.

The audience immediately fell silent, all eyes focused on Qiu Ziyue and Qi Yuxuan on the platform.

Qiu Ziyue and Qi Yuxuan clasped their hands in a fist and said "please".

Qiu Ziyue made the first move, her "Flowing Cloud Shuttle" sword moving as lightly as flowing clouds, drawing a beautiful arc as she attacked Qi Yuxuan.

Qi Yuxuan accepted the challenge.

"Clang, clang," the swords clashed, instantly emitting wisps of cold air and sword gleam.

"What a fast sword!" Qi Yuxuan exclaimed, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

Qiu Ziyue did not pause; her swordsmanship flowed like a waterfall, unstoppable, and a series of rapid sword strikes rained down on Qi Yuxuan.

Qi Yuxuan's swordsmanship became more stable. He used defense as offense, and every sword strike accurately sealed Qiu Ziyue's weaknesses.

The two exchanged blows, their swords flashing, the entire platform sparkling with sword light like twinkling stars.

The audience watched intently, especially since both of them were good-looking and had such graceful figures.

The two fencing moves were like a graceful dance, drawing gasps of amazement from the crowd who exclaimed how beautiful, how dangerous, and how thrilling the contest was. They applauded and cheered for the exciting duel.
