Chapter 175: What Do You Want

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Xiao Jue stared at Su Ying’s chilly almond-shaped eyes and goosebumps rose all over his body. He had never seen Su Ying like this before.

Was that really Su Ying?

Xiao Jue was a little uncertain all of a sudden.

While he was doubting his eyes, Su Ying had already flung over the guards outside the carriage who tried to stop her and yanked the curtains aside.

Their eyes met, and Xiao Jue was shocked. “Su Ying?”

“That’s me, you asshole.”

Su Ying grabbed Xiao Jue by the front of his robe and dragged him out of the carriage.

A steely cold dagger was instantly pressed below Xiao Jue’s jaw. Su Ying glared icily at the guards who were trying to get closer. “One more step and I’ll slice off his head and kick it like a ball.”

The bone-chilling sensation brought Xiao Jue back to his senses. A look of disbelief flashed across his eyes. Su Ying was holding him hostage. He couldn’t believe it!

Was this woman crazy?

When they saw Xiao Jue being held hostage, the guards didn’t dare to step forward. They only stared at Su Ying warily, trying to find an opportunity to attack.

“Yingying, 1 know you’re angry with me. Look, I’m here to pick you up right now.”

Smack!

Before Xiao Jue could finish his sentence, Su Ying gave him a vicious slap across the face. “Shut your shitty mouth, or I’ll cut off your tongue.”

After getting slapped, Xiao Jue saw stars and lost the ability to think momentarily.

When the guards saw Xiao Jue being slapped, they were so nervous that their palms were sweating. “This is the Great Prince of the Chu State. How dare you hit him? Do you know that as long as the Great Prince gives the order, the thousands of soldiers guarding this place can trample you into meat paste!”

As soon as one of the guards finished speaking, Su Ying raised her hand and slapped Xiao Jue again.

Xiao Jue was stunned by the two slaps.

Su Ying laughed icily. “Sure. I’d like to see if it’s faster for you guys to stomp me into meat paste or for me to chop off his head first.”

“Who exactly are you? How dare you.” The guard was furious and anxious, afraid that Su Ying would really kill Xiao Jue with her dagger.

“You guys go ahead first,” Su Ying said to Tiger Might.

How could Tiger Might leave Su Ying here alone?

“Just go. Don’t waste my time,” Su Ying said.

Tiger Might looked at Su Ying’s expression. That look allowed no room for objection and he knew that Su Ying was not joking. “Let’s go!”

Upon hearing Tiger Might’s order, the group moved once again. A guard wanted to stop them, but he heard Su Ying say, “Go ahead and stop them. If any one of you goes after them, I’ll cut off one of his ears. If two of you go, I’ll cut off one of his hands. I want to see how many parts he has on him that I can cut off.”

The guards became obedient, and the two sides stood there in a stalemate.

Xiao Jue finally came to his senses and realized that something was wrong with Su Ying. This person wasn’t Su Ying at all. The Su Ying he knew wasn’t as skilled as this woman. If the old Su Ying simply ran a little faster, she would fall flat on her face, much less lift a finger to hit him now!

“What… what exactly do you want to do? Tell me…” Since he was in her hands, he could only submit to her demands.

“You want to negotiate with me in exchange for your lowly life?”

Xiao Jue choked and suppressed his anger. “What do you want!”

“I want grain, oil, seeds, cloth, cotton, and silver. I’ll give you a day to gather these things for me. The more, the better, understand? If I feel that the amount you brought is too little…” Su Ying pushed the dagger forward, and blood instantly flowed down Xiao Jue’s neck.

“Alright, alright. Don’t move anymore. Don’t hurt His Highness. We’ll get you what you want immediately!” The guard leader shot a glance at the guy beside him, and the other party instantly understood and left.

Of course, Su Ying knew that they were going to get reinforcements, but she didn’t care at all.

“Everyone, retreat. Retreat to a distance where I can’t see your faces clearly. Retreat now.”

The guards were unwilling to move, but Su Ying was squeezing Xiao Jue so hard he was almost suffocating. “Retreat! Retreat now!”

The guards had no choice but to retreat.

Su Ying led Xiao Jue to an empty spot and sat down. She then pulled off his belt and tied his hands behind his back before throwing him onto the ground, not giving him any chance to escape.

Xiao Jue had never been humiliated like this before. He was about to go crazy from anger, but he had no ability to resist Su Ying’s hands.

He raised his head to look at Su Ying. No matter how he looked at her, the woman in front of him looked exactly the same as the Su Ying he knew, but her aura and mannerisms were completely different.

Xiao Jue suddenly thought of what the spies had told him. They said that Su Ying seemed to have changed into a different person and she was so powerful that they found her strength unbelievable.

At that time, he thought that these spies were joking. Now, it seemed that they were not lying.

However, he couldn’t figure out how a dumb idiot could suddenly become so powerful.

“Yingying…”

Smack!

Su Ying turned around and slapped him again. “If I hear you call me in such a disgusting way again, I’ll cripple you.”

Pfft! Xiao Jue opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

This damned woman! She had already slapped him three times! He must teach her a lesson!

Su Ying sat down on a nearby rock. She then took out a piece of dried meat and began eating, completely ignoring Xiao Jue’s presence.

Xiao Jue was still unwilling to accept this. He no longer wanted to think about how Su Ying had become so powerful. He only wanted to know why she was so heartless to him.

Xiao Jue braced himself mentally and continued, “Su Ying, I came here this time expressly to look for you. Back in the Chu State, 1 have already sent people to look for you, but for various reasons, my men couldn’t bring you back to my side in time. This is my fault. You can be angry, but after you’re done being angry, come back with me obediently. I will definitely take you in as my concubine.”

If it was in the past, Su Ying would have thrown herself into his arms long ago when she heard his sugar-coated honeyed words, but now…

Su Ying merely glanced at him icily, as if she was looking at a fool.

She honestly thought that he was a fool!

Xiao Jue tried again. “Su Ying…”

Su Ying grabbed the yellow mud on the ground and stuffed it into his mouth. “Shut up. If I hear your voice again, I’m afraid I won’t be able to resist tearing you apart.”

“Oof!” Xiao Jue’s eyes widened. His rage had reached its peak, yet he could do nothing to the person in front of him.

The guards who had retreated a short distance away looked at Su Ying and Xiao Jue. They racked their brains, but they couldn’t think of a way to save Xiao Jue. The field of vision here was wide, and it would be difficult for them to circle around Su Ying and kill her because there was no place to hide at all.

“Where are the archers? Get the archers to search the surroundings and see if they can find a place to lay an ambush.”

The guards looked at the forest in the distance. They could lay an ambush there, but it was not within their shooting range. It was useless to set up an ambush there.

“Captain, do you think we can force that woman to the edge of the forest? That way, we can wait for an opportunity to save His Highness.”

“That’s a good idea. The few of you, come with me..”
