Chapter 407 Don’t know whether to live or die

The eunuch who was kicked over by Princess Ankang was helped to his feet by his companions.

Apart from the red marks on his face and nosebleeds that made him look a little embarrassed, there was nothing serious about this man.

After all, he is a seventh-grade warrior and is not as fragile as ordinary people.

But this also proves how powerful Princess Ankang's feet are, and she can actually kick a seventh-grade warrior to the ground, leaving her in such a miserable state.

"Are you okay?"

"I didn't mean it just now, I'm sorry."

Princess Ankang stepped forward and apologized profusely, feeling embarrassed for her previous mistakes.

She also didn't expect that her first shot in the game would get into trouble.

The eunuch who was helped up from the ground still seemed stunned after hearing Princess Ankang's words, as if he still hadn't come to his senses.

The eunuch with a face full of red marks and nosebleeds looked at Princess Ankang, then raised his hand and silently saluted respectfully.

Princess Ankang blinked, feeling something was wrong.

It was obvious that he had caused trouble and was apologizing to others.

But the other party's reaction...

Years of living in the cold palace made Princess Ankang feel unfamiliar with some common things in the palace.

Under the guidance of the referee on the sidelines, the game continued.

The eunuch who was kicked in the face by Princess Ankang recovered for a while and continued to be active on the court.

After the Sixth Princess retreated to the back, she barely touched the ball, just like a spectator on the court.

On the other hand, the three little ones were playing lively.

No matter how the two eunuchs on the opposite side attack, Li Xuan will easily catch them and then leave it to the two girls to organize the attack on their own.

The rules of three-person Cuju are very similar to those of volleyball. In each attack, each person can only touch the ball once. If it exceeds the limit, it is a foul and the ball must be transferred.

Therefore, Li Xuan finally had a legitimate opportunity to fish.

It's just that the two girls' attacks have still failed to make a difference so far, and the score is still locked at 1-0 at the beginning.

Although there are only two people playing football on the opposite side, these two eunuchs have a seventh-grade cultivation level, which is the upper limit of the participation requirements for this three-person Cuju competition. In addition, they are more proficient in Cuju, so they can't defend against it. It's watertight.

The Sixth Princess looked behind for a while and saw some clues.

She has been able to confirm that Yu'er only has eighth-level strength, and judging from her aura, she should be inferior to her.

As for Princess Ankang, there is no trace of any cultivation.

But for some reason, the former sickly Princess Ankang became extremely strong, with strength and speed far exceeding those of ordinary people, and even her reaction speed seemed to be higher than that of the Sixth Princess.

This discovery made the Sixth Princess frown deeply.

"It doesn't make sense..."

"Don't let it be a flashback, right?"

The Sixth Princess originally wanted to see clearly the depth of Li Xuan first, but Princess Ankang's performance was so eye-catching that she couldn't even move her eyes away.

And Li Xuan deliberately kept a low profile. Every time he attacked, he simply defended against the opponent's attack and passed the ball out all at once, greatly reducing his chances of performance.

Many people watching the game had the same feelings as the Sixth Princess.

This is the first time Princess Ankang has shown her current physical fitness in front of so many people.

Before, she had shocked many people when she stood up from her wheelchair in the Imperial Garden.

But now, after not seeing each other for a while, Princess Ankang can already compete in the Cuju court as light as a bird, and even performs better than other princes and princesses who have practiced martial arts.

"What kind of medicine did Doctor Xue give her?"

Everyone raised such questions.

I have long heard that Dr. Xue found a way to improve Princess Ankang's physical condition.

But this effect is a bit too outrageous, right?

The nobles in the palace sitting in the stands couldn't help but feel excited, and they planned to go to Dr. Xue for some replenishment even though they were not sick.

At this time, Princess Ankang still didn't know how much trouble her performance today had caused to Dr. Xue.

As for Li Xuan, everyone has already classified him from an ordinary domestic cat to a rare and exotic animal.

There are many rare and rare animals in the palace, including the eighth prince's Haidong Qing Axiang and the eldest prince's thin white dog Baihen.

There are also many other rare and exotic animals that are just for viewing.

But the power Li Xuan had shown previously clearly exceeded these two categories.

There is another kind of rare beast in the palace, and that is the ones kept in the forbidden garden.

Among the three little ones, Dabai, the white tiger who surrendered in the previous autumn hunting competition, was one of them.

Because these rare and exotic animals are more dangerous, they are rarely kept in the palace unless they have been domesticated.

Li Xuan's display of his skills made everyone even more inscrutable about Princess Ankang.

Everyone is guessing from whom did Princess Ankang learn this superb animal taming technique? Where did you find such a rare beast as Li Xuan? How do you feed yourself until now?

All these speculations have cast a layer of confusion on Princess Ankang, making them no longer dare to underestimate her, and even become cautious.

After all, the fourth prince is not the only smart person in this palace.

"Axuan!"

"Stop being lazy!"

The two girls attacked for a while and found that they couldn't break the opposite goal, so they couldn't help but said anxiously.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er were quite excited at first, but after repeated setbacks, they began to breathe heavily from exhaustion.

Especially Yu'er, her smooth forehead was covered with a layer of fragrant sweat, and her physical strength was even inferior to that of Princess Ankang.

Princess Ankang's face is still slightly red and her breathing is short of breath. It seems that she will have no problem holding on until the end of the game.

Li Xuan saw that the two girls started to complain, but still did not participate in the attack. They were smiling, which made their teeth itch.

"Smelly A-Xuan, wait a minute, sister Yu'er and I are too tired to run. How can you kick a cat!"

Princess Ankang said unconvinced.

Li Xuan was not purely teasing them, he just wanted to push them more and bring out more potential in the two girls.

While Li Xuan gave them shelter from wind and rain, he also had to give them a chance to grow.

Because Li Xuan believed that both girls were talented girls with unlimited potential, and their future achievements would be immeasurable.

He cannot restrict their development because of his own selfishness.

Although Li Xuan's starting point is good, his current appearance is really too much. He yawns and stretches from time to time on the Cuju court.

With such a lazy attitude, he was able to defend against attacks from the opposite side, so I guess the mentality of the two eunuchs on the opposite side was not much better.

Little cats are good at messing with people.

It's just a range of damage, without the protection of teammates.

This situation continued until the end of the first half.

After the referee's whistle, the two teams took a short rest and prepared for the second half of the game.

Through the entire first half of observation, the Sixth Princess has already seen the depth of the three little ones.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er were nothing to worry about, but she had no way to deal with the black cat.

Although for some reason, except for the first attack, the black cat never launched another attack, she could not break through the defense on the other side.

The two eunuchs who served as the Sixth Princess stood aside to rest uneasily, but surprisingly they were not blamed by the Sixth Princess.

The sixth princess was sitting in the players' rest area and turned to look in the direction of the eldest prince and the fourth prince.

The eldest prince shook his head gently, and the six princesses couldn't help but look disappointed.

Then she saw the fourth prince giving her a gesture.

The fourth prince clenched a fist at the sixth prince, and then nodded slightly.

The sixth princess frowned slightly, and after a moment of hesitation, she nodded to the fourth prince.

Then, she turned to the two eunuchs and asked:

"Can you deal with that cat?"

The two eunuchs looked at each other and saw each other's dilemma.

From their brief silence, the Sixth Princess had already figured out the answer. Before the two of them made meaningless excuses, she continued:

"Then deal with that palace maid."

"I hope this is her last game today, do you hear that?"

The two eunuchs who served at the door looked solemn and nodded coldly in response:

"I will obey His Highness's orders."

The Sixth Princess nodded and stood up.

At this time, the halftime break was just over, and they had to change sides to fight again in the second half.

It was obvious from the second half onwards that the goals of the Six Queens' game had completely changed.

In the second half, it was the turn of the three little ones to kick off first.

Princess Ankang smiled and hurriedly ran up to the midfield to prepare for the kickoff.

Li Xuan looked at it and couldn't help but think: "I didn't expect this girl to like playing Cuju."

But the next moment, he saw a malicious smile appear on Princess Ankang's face.

What's even worse is that Yu'er has a similar expression on her face.

"What do they want to do?"

Li Xuan immediately raised his vigilance.

But then he immediately understood what the two girls were planning.

Princess Ankang served quickly, gently bumped the ball, and passed it to Yu'er accurately.

Yu'er was well prepared and kicked Li Xuan.

Now, Li Xuan became the last person to touch the ball, and it was impossible not to launch an attack.

"I asked what they were studying off the court just now."

Li Xuan couldn't help but feel funny.

But since the ball has been passed and Li Xuan has been called to this point, he doesn't care to give these two girls some pointers.

The previous attacks of the two girls were all blocked by the two eunuchs on the opposite side and failed to achieve any success.

After all, their strength is there, there is no reason for them to easily break through the defense.

But Li Xuan felt that there might be another offensive route that they had not tried yet.

Facing the flying ball, Li Xuan raised his butt enchantingly, then aimed at the ball and wagged his tail.

The big furry tail was like a bat, hitting the ball high into the air, and then slowly falling down, not very fast.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er both frowned and looked at the trajectory of the ball.

They knew that Li Xuan hit the ball deliberately and it was not a mistake.

And when Princess Ankang saw the ball falling toward Feng Liuyan on the opposite side, she immediately understood Li Xuan's intention.

"Well you cunning little kitty!"

Princess Ankang turned around and praised Li Xuan with a smile.

In response, Li Xuan just rolled his eyes.

"How can you praise a cat so much?"

But at this moment, a figure rushed out from below and stopped the ball just as it was about to pass through Fengliu's eye.

Li Xuan curled his lips and couldn't help but think: "Tsk, it's different if you are one level higher."

Li Xuan's high-flying attack was blocked by a eunuch on the opposite side.

This close eunuch only relied on his own Qinggong, and did not even borrow the strength of his companions.

But the opponent also took a trick and did not intercept the ball when it was rising. Instead, it chose to intercept the ball when it was falling, reducing the difficulty of interception.

The ball hit the opponent's boot and bounced towards the front of their field.

And there, another eunuch who was a close servant was already in place, raising one leg ready to shoot.

The Sixth Princess was still standing at the back of the field, but she no longer observed, but looked at the ground in front of her boredly.

Li Xuan was not too disappointed when he saw that his attack did not work.

He originally wanted to give Princess Ankang a hint so that they could find a more suitable means of attack.

Even if the opponent has the ability to make difficult interceptions, his physical strength is always limited.

And anyway, they already have a chance to win, and they mainly focus on having fun during the game.

Just when Li Xuan was about to block the opponent's attack again, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the eunuch's eyes on the other side who was raising his feet.

Before aiming at the goal, this person glanced in Yu'er's direction for some reason, his eyes cold.

"Oops!"

Off the court, the Eighth Prince secretly shouted.

He was so good at Cuju. Just by looking at the eunuch's leg swing, he knew that his target was not the goal.

But everything on the court happened in a flash, and it was too late for the Eighth Prince to shout a warning at this time.

"boom!"

"boom!"

A loud noise that was not at the same level as before exploded, and some concubines couldn't help but cover their ears.

Who would have guessed that such a big movement was caused by kicking Cuju.

Zhao Feng on the sidelines did not move, but narrowed his eyes slightly to cover up the flash of cold light.

On the Cuju court, a figure was knocked away by the ball, dragging a long trace on the ground until it crossed the baseline and flew out of the court.

The figure lay helplessly on the ground, without any movement, not knowing whether to live or die.

The entire Royal Garden was quiet, and even the games in the other two venues were suspended.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the figure on the ground.

The Sixth Princess turned around in disbelief and looked at the terrifying drag marks spreading backwards from her feet.

The soil was stained with blood.

Only she who stood closest could see clearly.

Princess Ankang and Yu'er were also startled by the sudden movement, but immediately felt relieved when they saw the small figure protecting them.

"boom."

There was another muffled sound.

The eunuch who had previously intercepted Li Xuan's attack fell straight down from mid-air, showing no trace of the demeanor of a seventh-grade master.

Then, regardless of the pain, the eunuch stood up from the ground and ran towards his companion.

"Hey, hey..."

"you……"

He stammered and couldn't even formulate the next words.

It didn't look like there was anything going on. He didn't even dare to move his companion's body.

The Sixth Princess and her remaining eunuch turned their eyes to the opposite side in horror and saw the seemingly harmless little black cat.

Li Xuan met their gazes, raised the corners of his mouth, and exposed one of his white tiger teeth.

At this moment, the Sixth Princess felt that the person facing her was not a cute cat, but a fierce tiger that wanted to devour people.

She was so frightened that she couldn't help but take a step back. As a result, her body went limp and she almost fell to the ground, but she couldn't help but stagger a few steps.

Zhao Feng, who was on the sidelines, glanced at the Sixth Princess and said secretly:

"act recklessly."
