Chapter 85: This Miss Can Pull Out Something Bigger Than Yours!

The final battle drew all eyes. Whoever won would become the Empress.

Only, the two people in the final did not look happy at all.

Zhang Chu Qiao glanced at Zhou Tong and muttered in a hurry: “What do we do, junior brother?”

Zhou Tong lowered his voice and answered at once: “Do not panic. We can fake our deaths.”

After a quick brainstorm, he shared a wild plan: “We have not shown our real faces. In front of everyone, we can pretend to blow up together and vanish in a flash of light.”

He sent his voice to her mind, and big senior sister agreed right away: “Good idea. Charge at me, we throw our punches, and I will release a blinding flash. Then we run.”

Zhou Tong nodded and spoke simply: “I am coming.”

He shot forward without another word. Both of them punched, fist to fist, timing it perfectly.

In the stands, the guard captain’s eyes lit up. He crushed the Jade Pendant in his palm.

With a thunderous blast, half the arena blew apart. It was exactly the half under Zhang Chu Qiao’s feet. She was caught off guard and started to fall off the ring.

“We did it!” The Empress almost jumped up with joy.

But the next instant, things changed.

Zhou Tong yelled as his heart lurched: “Senior sister, watch out!”

On pure instinct he grabbed her wrist and yanked. The two of them switched places in midair.

There was a heavy bang as Zhou Tong tumbled off the ring and big senior sister stayed on top.

Silence fell over the whole arena.

The host found his voice first and shouted, almost bowing to the floor: “The result is decided. The final winner has emerged. From today on, you are the Empress of the Ling Xiao Empire!”

People across the arena followed suit and cried out in salute: “We greet the Empress!”

Zhang Chu Qiao stood there stunned. Qian Miao Yu was the same. At the last moment, was this really turning from a show into the truth?

The officials in charge of ceremony worked with such speed it was almost a crime. In the blink of an eye, red banners hung across the Imperial Capital, and an eight-bearer sedan chair arrived and stopped before Zhang Chu Qiao.

The head usher bowed and said with bright eyes: “Please board the sedan, Empress.”

Zhang Chu Qiao’s brows trembled. She wanted to refuse, but in front of the whole city she could not make the Empress lose face. She could only take one step at a time: [I will explain everything after we reach the Imperial Palace.]

The little demoness watched the sedan leave. She pressed her palms together and prayed with all her heart: “Understanding, blessings, lock it in. May your love last forever.”

On the other side, You Chong woke up groaning. About seventy percent of his bones were broken, yet he raged anyway, spitting hate: “I will kill that trash and tear him into pieces!”

He clutched at the red-robed youth and begged in a harsh whisper: “Big brother, avenge me. And that Empress, I want her as my maidservant.”

The red-robed youth’s eyes flashed. He swept a look over the two experts behind him, both in the Life-and-Death Realm, and spoke in a low tone: “Good. As you wish. I will first help you bring the Empress back.”

The two bowed and slipped away toward the Imperial Palace at once.

Night fell. In the Empress’s bedchamber, two beauties faced each other in silence.

Qian Miao Yu finally spoke with a small cough and a steady gaze: “I already have someone in my heart. I cannot marry you. To show my apology, I can grant you a great reward.”

She stepped close as she spoke, her face stern, and set her palm on Zhang Chu Qiao’s chest: “From now on, we are strangers. If you dare to pester me, I will not be polite.”

Cloth began to tear with sharp little sounds. Zhang Chu Qiao let out a dry scoff and answered with contempt: “You think I want you? This miss can pull out something bigger than yours!”

With a sharp pop, the last strips of cloth gave way. Two proud peaks sprang up, and the Empress’s hand bounced back on its own.
