Chapter 196
Chapter 196: You Are So Fast. No, I Am Not Fast At All. I Think You Two Are Being Dirty
Zhong Li He heard her words. The wariness in his eyes was mixed with a bit of restless excitement. He narrowed his eyes and asked with a smiling face: “I did not hear wrong, did I, Jiang Tea Tea? You want to team up with me to beat up your family’s Commander in Chief?”
Everyone else in the room could not stand the shock waves from the two men’s supernatural abilities and spiritual power. She acted like nothing was happening. Not only could she take it, she could even help the others hold up and keep them from being crushed by their oppressive aura.
This could not be explained just with the words innate talent. She was simply a super Little Darling. No wonder Chong Ming, that dragon, hid her so carefully. If she were his own Little Darling, he would also hide her and not let anyone know, in case someone stole her away so he would not even have a place to cry.
Jiang Tea Tea folded her fingers into a fist and shook them out again like she was warming up before a fight: “You did not hear wrong. I want to join you to beat up Chong Ming, Your Highness.”
“If you are not interested, just pretend I never said anything. If you are interested, then give me a straight answer, be a bit more manly.”
Zhong Li He tried to see a joke on her face, but her small fair face was completely serious. In her dark eyes there was no desire for victory, only the hunger to fight. Interesting. Fun.
Zhong Li He raised one finger: “Last question.”
Jiang Tea Tea spread her hand: “Ask.”
Zhong Li He asked: “You really will not hit me?”
Jiang Tea Tea laughed: “I cannot promise that. Beating you and beating Chong Ming, Your Highness, is something every man and woman dreams about.”
“But I can promise you this. I am definitely not on his side, and I am also not on your side. I am only working with you for now.”
A dragon and a phoenix. Even if her spiritual power had not recovered to its peak, she still wanted to fight them. In her home, the Demon Realm, just seeing these two beings was enough to brag about for a lifetime, not to mention actually getting to fight them.
Zhong Li He suddenly understood: “I get it. You do not belong to his side, and you do not belong to my side. You belong to your own side.”
“Whoever is winning, you hit. Whoever is about to lose, you help. If you can knock down both of us, you will just beat up the two of us together.”
Chong Ming, who had not spoken this whole time, said in a low voice: “You finally understand what she meant. Congratulations, Executive Commander.”
“Stop talking so weird.” Zhong Li He rolled his eyes at him, then turned back to Jiang Tea Tea: “Fine, I will agree. We will beat Chong Ming together first. After we knock him down, the two of us will fight.”
Jiang Tea Tea flipped her hand and pulled a stick from her space knob storage device. It was a little thicker than a thumb and about one meter long. She asked: “Can we use weapons?”
Chong Ming stared speechlessly at the stick in her hand: “You already took out your weapon and now you ask me that? Do you think that is not a bit extra?”
Jiang Tea Tea grinned, showing her teeth: “It is not extra. If you say we cannot use them, then I will not. This is your territory. We follow your rules.”
It was his territory and should follow his rules, yet she did not put the stick away.
Chong Ming was very generous: “No need to listen to me. Just listen to you.”
Zhong Li He also flipped his hand and pulled out an iron rod. He weighed it in his hand and smiled as he said: “You said so yourself, Chong Ming, Commander in Chief. I will not hold back.”
Since the two of them were not holding back, how could Chong Ming hold back? He also took out an iron rod from his space knob storage device, the same length as Zhong Li He’s: “Executive Commander Zhong, do not stand on ceremony. Please treat my place like your own home.”
Zhong Li He flicked his iron rod: “Then come on.”
But even after he finished talking, he himself did not take the initiative to attack.
Jiang Tea Tea and Chong Ming also did not move. The three of them stood facing each other in a standoff.
They watched each other while their feet kept moving. Each person stayed about five steps away from the others, close enough to attack, far enough to defend.
Sui Xuan Chu and Cheng Lin Yue both felt their hearts jump into their throats. [His uncle, the Commander in Chief, is way too willful, letting his roommate Sister Tea do whatever she wants and not caring at all about the youngling in her belly.]
Huang Da Zhuang, Cheng Xiao Ting, and the other three all had eyes shining. They secretly took out small colored flags from their space knob storage devices. When Sister Tea won later, they would wave the little flags, shout for her, and blow victory whistles.
Kong Que felt that his 100,000 star credits had been totally worth it. Even though the calming healing had only lasted for a short while, it was still better than when the healers of their Western Kingdom calmed and healed him.
Most of all, he got to watch a fight. For a pure human girl of eighteen, if she did not have real skill and strong confidence, how could she dare to challenge one of the top two strongest beastmen in all of Interstellar Space?
Everyone else at the scene also felt they had made a huge profit. Not only could they watch the Western Kingdom’s Executive Commander fight with their own Commander in Chief, they could also watch Level S variant healer Jiang Tea Tea go up and fight with them.
Jiang Tea Tea and the two men stayed locked in a stalemate for two minutes. Then, all of a sudden, she sprang forward and attacked Zhong Li He.
Chong Ming’s golden eyes narrowed. He was surprised by her sudden sneak attack. He had thought she would attack him. He had not expected her to attack Zhong Li He.
Zhong Li He cursed and quickly twisted his body to dodge. He fought back, but he did not fight back against Jiang Tea Tea. His counterattack went straight toward Chong Ming.
The iron rod that came at him head-on made Chong Ming tip his head back. The rod passed right by his high nose without touching it.
At that moment, the stick in Jiang Tea Tea’s hand suddenly stretched longer like a whip cutting through the air. She brought it down toward Chong Ming with a heavy swing.
Chong Ming moved like he had eyes on the back of his head. He jumped straight up on the spot. The stick smashed into the ground with a loud boom, leaving a deep dent in the hard floor.
Everyone at the scene was shaken by the boom. They quickly moved closer together and took out shielding devices that blocked supernatural abilities and oppressive aura, placing them around themselves so they would not be destroyed if the three of them released their supernatural abilities at the same time.
While he was attacking Chong Ming, Zhong Li He whistled and praised her: “Wow, 59311, you are pretty good.”
Jiang Tea Tea swung her stick again and answered: “You are not bad either, just a little worse than Chong Ming, Your Highness.”
The stick that was a little more than one meter long kept growing without limit. Then it split into two sticks that snapped toward Zhong Li He and Chong Ming at the same time.
In a fight, no one really helped anyone, and no one truly stayed on one side. There was only the desire to win and the desire to hit people.
Zhong Li He clearly had not expected a normal-looking stick in her hand to split and whip at him. He had been attacking Chong Ming.
Facing the sudden stick, he dodged, and in that moment Chong Ming counterattacked. So the stick did not hit him, but Chong Ming’s kick did.
Chong Ming focused on kicking him and did not dodge Jiang Tea Tea’s stick. The stick lashed his body and ripped his duty uniform.
Jiang Tea Tea paused for a second in surprise. Then she formed a spell formula with her fingers and used the Shrinking Ground to Inches Technique to flash in front of Chong Ming: “You dodged on purpose so I could hit you?”
Chong Ming answered with a serious face: “You are too fast.”
The stick in Jiang Tea Tea’s hand shrank and turned into a short stick. She thrust it right at him: “I am not as fast as you.”
Chong Ming grabbed the tip of the stick with one hand and gave a hard pull, dragging Jiang Tea Tea toward him. His golden eyes darkened as he stubbornly corrected her: “I am not fast.”
