The Anarchic Consort c1-1376

by Warring Young Seven

  Boom! Boom! Boom!

  In just a short time, all the people on the stage were lying on the stage in all directions, holding their stomachs in pain. Other than their bodies feeling weak, they did not notice that they were losing their martial qi.

  This was the effect of Huagong Poison, it can virtually eliminate a person's marital qi from their body without the person realising it. Of course, this did not mean that Helian Wei Wei was unaware.

  Yuan Ming put this together, realisation showed in his eyes: "I see, woman, did you become aware that they were poisoned, that's why you let them attack together?"

  "They tried in vain by joining forces to teach me a lesson, of course I had to return the favour." Helian Wei Wei smiled coldly, like a demon who walking in hell.

  Yuan Ming also laughed: "I estimated that within the time to burn half an incense stick, they will all suffer the full effects of the poison. Haha, this has to be seen."

  Helian Wei Wei stood straight, her left arm was lifted up by the judge representing an absolute victory.

  The crowd exploded!

  Eyes wide and stared at Helian Wei Wei on stage.

  She actually won!

  The world always said that the eldest daughter of the Helian family was an ugly useless waste. Other than follow Master Murong around, she was a good for nothing. Even if she wasn't ugly, her behaviour was so distasteful that everyone couldn't stand her.

  But today everyone saw what kind of a woman she truly was. Unyielding, not humble, quite like a general!

  However, what was worrying was that she had exposed her achilles heel, she had never shown that she possessed martial qi up till now!

  This was a bad phenomenon for a warrior. Especially when your opponent is still a master of martial arts!

  Helian Jiao Er saw this point and stepped up to the stage with a soft shallow smile, shy and weak, in a manner that easily triggered a man's d.e.s.i.r.e to protect her. Therefore, people only saw her coming onto the stage as a coincidence, and would not associate any plots with that.

  "Elder Sister." Helian Jiao Er sighed and looked at Helian Wei Wei, as if she couldn't bear it: "I don't want to take advantage, but due to the competition system, I have to come up now. If you want to give up now, there is still time. I can talk to the judge and ask them to let you forfeit your place."

  Helian Wei Wei sneered aloud: "If you really don't want to take advantage of the situation, they why didn't you even give me time to have a drink of water before you came up to the stage?"

  Helian Jiao Er's expression was altered by Helian Wei Wei's words, even her smile was frozen.

  Dong!

  The drum sounded!

  In an instant, Helian Jiao Er's smile returned, and muttered under her breath: "This time I will kill you for sure!"

  Helian Wei Wei walked past and did not even look at her.

  This wretched woman dared to ignore her!

  As the drum sounds faded, Helian Jiao Er tightened her left hand, she squinted and her whole body glowed in a golden light. The martial qi that could be felt in the air was turbulent like a sea of water!

  "That, that is..."

  The people in the audience took a deep breath, their mouths and eyes slowly widened as they stared at Helian Jiao Er. Their tone was full of surprise: "Golden Steps!"

  "I can't believe that the martial qi of Helian Jiao Er has reached such an advanced level!"

  "She is a legendary genius. Helian Jiao Er really deserves the title of the Phoenix Girl!"

  This meant that the chances of Helian Wei Wei defeating her opponent was very slim. It was even likely that without martial qi, she would be ruined by Helian Jiao Er!

  The two girls stood on the stage and stared at each other coldly, no one knew who would tear the other apart in the next second!

  Suddenly, Helian Jiao Er drew out a sword and brought out layers of great waves!

  "Haze, take out all the light!"

  Chapter 245 - Fame From One Battle!

  A black mist had crept up behind Helian Wei Wei, all the light seemed to be absorbed in an instant, and it became dark.

  Nothing could be seen, nothing could be heard. It became extremely quiet up on the stage.

  Helian Wei Wei was enveloped within it, she could not distinguish directions, let alone see the movements of Helian Jiao Er.

  Just when everyone thought that Helian Wei Wei was dead for sure!

  A shadow walked out of the black mist, flowing long hair, radiant appearance, as if the surrounding martial qi had no effect on her whatsoever!

  Helian Jiao Er stared in shock!

  She reached out, wanting to use the opportunity to kill Helian Wei Wei!

  Her sharp sword was unexpectedly stopped on the other end.

  Helian Wei Wei did not seem to notice her fingers were cut, she tugged with force and pulled Helian Jiao Er right in front of her.

  And then!

  Her body turned like a whirlwind, her slender legs lifted high and she kicked viciously!

  That kick was thunderous!

  The sound of the wind that cut through the air was so loud that everyone's ears were ringing!

  There was no action at all. Just a perfectly executed kick.

  The person that was kicked created a high arc!

  And...Landed on the stage heavily…

  Helian Jiao Er lay on the cold ground in the dark. She had not felt any pain, and did not know what had happened. The dizziness started spreading.

  The crowd exploded!

  A person who possessed no martial qi had defeated someone who nearly mastered the peak of the Golden Step!

  This was really unheard of!

  "Wait, look at what is on her body!"

  "That that's…...martial qi!!!?"

  Yes, it is martial qi. Almost invisible, like a stream of air turning into a breeze around Helian Wei Wei, forming a faint barrier.

  Unlike everyone else's air, the air that surrounded her was colourless!

  What characteristic was this?

  Everyone looked at each other, the shock was incredulous!

  Sat in the elegant room inside was a man with ivory hair. He had a smirk and a playful smile on his face.

  "Master."

  Shadow took a step back, his nails black.

  "The plan has failed."

  The man took a sip of his tea and did not appear surprised by the result. His eyes dark and voice heavy: "I know, go on."

  "Yes." Shadow hesitated, then said: "Do I still serve the antidote to the young masters and misses that drank the tea?"

  The man blinked: "No. I wanted to see who counteracted my poison."

  "Yes." Shadow retreated..

  Sunset came, Helian Wei Wei stood on the stage and looked down at Helian Jiao Er who she'd kicked off the stage. The arc of her face was unusually handsome at this point.

  Murong Changfeng was below the stage. It was the first time he had looked at Helian Wei Wei so seriously. The first time, to let go completely and look at her.

  This woman was always willing to sacrifice anything for him from a young age, anything could be done. In his eyes now, it made him stupidly feel suffocated.

  But now, with her small face, she was stood at the peak, without a shadow of him in her eyes.

  At this moment.

  Murong Changfeng felt his eyes stung with pain, remorse swept through his body like a tidal wave!

  Clap! Clap! Clap!

  A thunderous applause sounded!

  Helian Wei Wei was famous in one battle!

  Helian Jiao Er was sprawled on the floor with intense pain from her internal organs. What made her lose her breath was not her injuries but the fact that she actually lost!

  From the day she was born, she had never been humiliated like this before! Helian Jiao Er clenched her teeth tightly. The state of her now, there was no more beauty, only her sullen face and messy hair. She looked even worse than the servants who were trying to lift her up.

  "Get lost!" The loss t
o Helian Wei Wei was bitter. Helian Jiao Er took her anger out on the servant. Before she even stood up properly, she slapped her hard across the face.

  The servant girl screamed out in pain!

  The crowd could not help but look at her, their eyes full of realisation, that the second daughter of the Helian family had revealed her true nature, which was worse that a shrew.

  Upon realising what she had done, Helian Jiao Er retracted her hand and her expression changed and she said lightly: "You girl, what intentions have you got. Elder sis has won and that is final. It doesn't matter what method she has used, I admit defeat. How dare you! Ask me to create problems for my elder sis!"

  "M….miss." The servant did not know why her mistress had said these words and replied: "Servant does not dare."

  After these remarks, those who lost against Helian Wei Wei had other ideas, they wanted to maintain their image. Fingers held on to their injured arm yelling at the judge: "Judge, this competition is not fair. We request to measure Helian Wei Wei's martial qi."

  Helen Weiwei just looked at them with a smile that had a hint of mockery.

  Those few people felt that there was something amiss, first they could not summon their martial qi, then there was that invisible barrier of air around Helian Wei Wei. During the crystal ball test, her body had no martial qi. Yet now she was so formidable.

  She must have used something they didn't know about!

  Ten or so students argued about this and had asked the judges to repeat.

  While the judges were deliberating over this matter.

  Suddenly.

  The fiercest of the girls who was arguing grabbed her left c.h.e.s.t and fell to the ground, her face ashen!

  Then there was a shrill scream!

  Everyone looked at the girl and took a big step backwards: "What, what is going on?"

  There was a smarter young master who upon seeing what had happened to the girl, checked his pulse. This was when he realised that the martial qi on his body was disappearing fast!

  "It's Huagong poison, it must be Huagong poison!"

  All ten people then put their fingers onto their pulse point, they shook their heads in despair.

  "No, there is more than just Huagong poison. There is also a deadly bone-eroding poison!" Someone had learnt the art of medicine and discovered the seriousness of their condition through checking their own side effects.

  The effect of the bone-eroding poison was that there was none to begin with. And when there was a reaction from the poison, it would be too late!

  The man panicked: "What should I do? What should we do? There is no antidote for the bone-eroding poison! And we tried to summon our martial qi earlier..."

  Bam!

  He had not finished speaking when another one of them had fallen down!

  Chapter 246 - To Harm Wei Wei

  Upon seeing this scene.

  A few of the officials who were sat inside the Phoenix Teahouse had come running out. They reached out to their grandsons and granddaughters who were hurt. One of them looked at Helian Wei Wei and said hastily: "Quick! Hurry up and give my granddaughter the antidote!"

  Helian Wei Wei said coldly: "Why should I give you the antidote just because you have told me to?"

  The official was stunned, he was so anxious that he behaved like a headless fly!

  Upon seeing this, Helian Jiao Er's expression changed. Bearing down her pain she said: "Since elder sister can cure the poison, why don't you help? It is only a matter on convenience, how can elder sister be so inhumane?"

  Helian Wei Wei sneered aloud: "Inhumane? Why should I give the antidote to this bunch of people who assisted you to ambush me?"

  "You!" Helian Jiao Er's face changed:" Elder sister, you can't make things up. When did I ambush you? Just because I was the last one to come onto the stage?"

  Helian Wei Wei squinted and smiled: "Whether you have done it or not, you know very well in your heart, and so do they."

  The official had seen everything clearly while he was stood upstairs in the teahouse earlier, he grabbed Helian Wei Wei's sleeve tightly and said: "Miss Wei Wei, this old man is begging you, only you are able to cure the poison of the corroding bones in the whole world. Old man has only this girl left in his life, please have mercy, please have mercy!"

  When the rest of the students had heard this, they all looked at Helian Wei Wei. The fear of death had caused them to show unprecedented panic. They regretted deeply to have listened to the scheme of Helian Jiao Er and Helian Mei earlier to join forces and launch an attack on Helian Wei Wei.

  Most days, they could not stand this woman.

  But today, whether they live or die, was all in the hands of this woman!

  Helian Wei Wei's words were like a thorn in a bush. This girl was different from everyone else he had me. There was no such thing as imperial power in her eyes.

  Therefore, even the Retired Emperor's tone was soft: "Wei Wei, I will let you make the decision about their wrongdoings. However, if the corroding bone poison is not cured, the ones who suffer are their parents."

  Helian Wei Wei looked at the Retired Emperor, her tone was even: "I will not help those who look down on me, and conspire to ambush me. Back when my mother was alone, she had saved several households, but when she passed away, none of them even came to pay their respects!"

  She glanced over at the people: "Not only that, they took the opportunity to step on me when they could!"

  Those who Helian Wei Wei laid eyes on in fear. Three of the ten people were the descendants of the households back then.

  Helian Wei Wei sneered: "This world has karma, revenge happens in due time."

  When the official heard the last sentence, he stepped back in regret of his past actions. But he was afraid to admit what happened for hearing it would affect his career.

  When the three officials saw the pain in the grandsons and granddaughters faces, they felt like dying!

  They were their heart and soul!

  "Since you hate us so much, why, why did you give us the antidote earlier?" The official looked like he had aged ten years.

  Helian Wei Wei walked over slowly, with a smile like a devil on her face: "Back then, didn't you all treat me this way too?"

  The officials were not stupid. Once they heard what Helian Wei Wei said, they knew what she meant.

  She did this on purpose!

  She saved them on purpose, so that they could witness their grandsons and granddaughters dying, and yet they were helpless!

  "Woman, you are ruthless. But...." Yuan Ming smiled devilishly: "I like it." The ruthless revenge was ingenious, his magic would follow suit, and before long, he would be able to recuperate his energy, that's great!

  Helian Wei Wei was not affected by the slightest, she lifted her hand and slowly tied up her sleeves: "I have said before since they want to join forces to teach me a lesson, of course I have to return the favour."

  "Miss Wei Wei, you can refuse to save those three, but the rest of us have never tried to frame Madam Helian." One of the poisoned person tried to flatter Helian Wei Wei: "Sister Helian is open-minded, she would not involve the innocent."

  Helian Wei Wei looked at her and smiled suddenly: "Oh, so when all of you challenged me one after another continuously, that is not ambush?"

  That person's expression was stiff. In order to survive, she pointed at the injured Helian Mei and Helian Jiao Er next to her and said: "Both of them came up with this idea! We were instructed to follow it. Sister Helian, we really didn't want to do it!"

  "Ling Er, stop talking nonsense!" Helian Jiao Er's scheme had been discovered and she panicked. However, just before everyone had started falling to the ground, she realised that there was something unusual going on. Now, because of this, she had thought of another scheme make sure Helian Wei Wei dies finally!

  Helian Jiao Er pressed her own painful mouth and spoke analytically: "Ling Er, don't be fooled. Doesn't everyone find it odd? The bone-eroding poison has no cure, so why doe
s elder sister have the antidote?"

  When the officials heard the words, they knew it was not good. They wanted to stop Helian Jiao Er talking!

  But Helian Wei Wei said: "Shut up, let her continue speaking."

  The officials were anxious but did not dare move. They were afraid that if they angered Helian Wei Wei further, then she would not save their grandchildren.

  Helian Wei Wei looked at the official cautiously and he swallowed his words. "I have finished. Elder sister, don't be so serious. I was just wondering why there are so many people in the martial qi competition, but yet you are the only one with the antidote for the bone-eroding poison."

  Everyone looked at Helian Wei Wei with suspicion.

  With a cold smirk, Helian Wei Wei said: "You are trying to say that I administered the poison, that is why I have the antidote."

  "Elder sister!" Helian Jiao Er exclaimed: "You said it. I never meant that at all."

  Helian Wei Wei raised her eyebrows: "Really? But unfortunately, I don't have the antidote. It is only because of my cultivation of martial qi is special, hence I was able to resolve the poison. You can continue to try and malign me, but you are only wasting precious time to save these people."

  Everyone looked at Helian Jiao Er with condemning eyes.

  Even that official was anxious: "Helian Jiao Er, can you please stop interfering, we have lives to save!"

  Helian Jiao Er had never been showed such contempt, her face turned white, she bit her lips and replied: "I just found it odd."

  "Speaking of odd, I have something to ask you."

  Chapter 247 - Wei Wei’s Counterattack

  Helian Wei Wei strode over, with eyes like a dagger, she said: "I had noticed earlier, you have always been a patron on the Phoenix Teahouse and like drinking their tea. However, this time you brought your own teacup and didn't say anything. Your servant girl even brought your pot of water."

  At those words, Helian Jiao Er froze!

  She had originally wanted to use the corroding bone poison to launch her final attack. However, today she has been utterly humiliated!
