Chapter 2014. Under Sky Road's Puppe
Thousand Feather Crane and Yun Sushang were shocked, and they were too late to stop what was in motion.
Angia was a top Earl. Even they didn’t think they could beat him. Yun Suyi had only just become an Earl, so it was highly unlikely she’d win.
Fortunately, this was Sky Palace. Even if she lost, her life wouldn’t be in danger.
Yun Sushang still felt sick, though. She knew Yun Suyi could not stand ill words being said about Han Sen, and that was why she was stepping forward.
Angia watched the elegantly dressed lady walk towards him. He looked surprised. He smiled and said, “Sister Yun must have only just become an Earl. If I remember correctly, the Yun family specializes in swords. I would feel terrible if I defeated you.”
“The Yun family’s swordskills are strong, so it would not be all that impressive if I used swordskills to win. I have, however, learned a few knifeskills from Han Sen. I wager that will be enough,” Yun Suyi said coldly. Then she drew Ice Knife.
Angia frowned. He knew Yun Suyi was Yun Changkong’s daughter, and it would be bad for him to offend her. But the Feathers had prepared the Blood Feather Knife for the third elder, so he couldn’t hand it over to Yun Suyi instead. Yun Suyi had just become an Earl, too. If he lost to her, it would actually damage his own reputation. People would think he had deliberately thrown a match just to please a woman. It’d look terrible.
Angia raced to think of a way out, but Yun Suyi had already drawn her knife. He couldn’t tell her he wasn’t going to fight. So, after a moment of thought, Angia concocted a new scheme.
“If Sister Yun is this interested, then I will agree to the contest. Please…” Angia pulled out a jade knife as he smiled to her.
