Chapter 265: Transcendent Qing (2)
In fact, Qing doesn’t really have a big reason for teasing the two of them. If there’s a small reason, it’s that the impact is so satisfying that it’s actually fun to beat them up.
When it comes to Gongsun Yoye, all Qing has to do is say, “This body, the Transcendent Qing,” and she’d just go, “Wow, Lady Seomun, you’re truly amazing,” and that’s it. No punch to it.
Besides, it seemed like she really got beaten up properly when she was in that trance, so Qing felt both grateful and a bit guilty. If not for the fact that it was a practice sword without an edge, Gongsun Yoye would have been sliced into four pieces — Gong/Sun/Yo/Ye — with each character shredded to bits.
And as for Tang Nana, there’s no point in trying to hit her in the first place.
The Tang Clan, unofficially allied with the royal family and possessing even cannons, is practically the number one power in Zhongyuan at the moment.
In addition to the firepower of their cannons, they also possess terrifying asymmetric power in the form of poison bombs they can load and fire. For someone like Tang Nana, the daughter of the Tang Clan, personal martial arts skills don’t seem to matter much.
Thus, Qing was on the lookout for someone she could actively mess with.
To be honest, there was no need to go far. Wasn’t the Yongbong Gathering full of people more or less on the same level?
Ah, look at them. These people who can’t even reach the Transcendent level are just lounging around, drinking and chatting like they have all the time in the world.
When I was at their level, I wasn’t just lazing around, drinking, or chatting. I didn’t sleep, didn’t eat, and just swung my sword all day long, tirelessly... well, maybe not exactly, but still.
“Hey, isn’t that Changbin?”
“Gasp, th-the Taesago, Taesago-nim is here...”
