Everyone Wants to Pamper the Lucky Daughter - Chapter 661

Chapter 661: Chapter 659: Destroying the Prestige of the Barbarian Tribe_1
 

Barbarians were exceptionally tall and strong, some even exceeding two and a half meters in height.

Although the population of Barbarians was sparse, their combat power was fierce, and they were skilled at forging weapons.

The Second Imperial Princess secretly stockpiled food and supplies, transported them to the Western Region, bribed the Clan Patriarch of the Barbarians, obtained weapons from them in exchange, and privately reached an agreement with him.

She had asked the bravest Barbarian Warriors to come to Capital City to challenge the Third Imperial Princess’s subordinates and dampen her spirits.

Capital City fell into a new wave of turmoil due to the arrival of the Barbarian Warriors.

The grand play of competition for the title of Crown Princess between the Second and Third Imperial Princesses officially began.

**

In the middle of March, during the warm, blossoming spring.

Three Barbarian Warriors from the Western Region came to Fengqi Empire and appeared before the citizens of Capital City.

Their exceptionally tall and strong stature, akin to the Giant Race, immediately attracted the attention of all onlookers.

After the initial shock and novelty had subsided, with the trio setting up a challenge platform at the Martial Arts Arena in the western suburbs, they arrogantly challenged the warriors of Fengqi Empire, injuring and crippling dozens of people.

Not only were the citizens of Capital City enraged, the Empress herself couldn’t stay seated, scolding the elderly ministers in the imperial court.

She berated their cunning and intrigue, their open and hidden struggles.

When faced with outsiders insulting and humiliating Fengqi Empire, every one of them had become cowardly, only capable of staying silent and unable to do anything.

The elderly ministers were scolded bloody by the Empress, red-faced and blushing, some even fainted from a heart attack on the spot.

With no other choice, the Third Imperial Princess stepped forward under pressure, solemnly swearing in front of the Empress and ministers.

No matter what, she would crush the arrogance of the Barbarian Warriors, force them to admit defeat, and send them back to the Western Region.

“Master, the Third Imperial Princess has offered a huge reward for talented individuals. The announcement has been posted at the city gate for three days, but no one has taken up the challenge,” said Little Kingfisher who was very excited to bring the news to her master.

“The Barbarians are strong and sturdy. Their bodies are impervious to knives and spears. Only the top ten masters of the Jianghu Wind and Moon Ranking could possibly be their opponents.”

Lin Qingluo’s eyelids drooped, seemingly calm, but her heart was in turmoil.

Noble Lord’s messenger pigeon informed her that the three Barbarian Warriors who appeared in Capital City were secretly arranged by the Second Imperial Princess.

She aimed to cripple the Third Imperial Princess’s edge, causing her to lose face in the eyes of the officials and civilians, and suffer a heavy fall.

As the Imperial Princesses fought in secret, citizens of Fengqi Empire were affected, with dozens of young warriors suffering injuries during the battles.

The number of injured and disabled continued to increase, and the number of courageous challengers dwindled.

What use was a massive reward? Top Jianghu masters would never risk their lives for a little gold.

They would either die or get injured, ruining their entire lives.

“The Empress flew into a rage in the court today,” Little Kingfisher reported with excitement, “She scolded the Third Imperial Princess for incompetence, and that her subordinates were all spineless. None of them dared to step forward and accept the challenge on the platform.”

“No one has challenged them for three days now,” Lin Qingluo nodded in understanding, “Allowing those Barbarian Warriors to insult and humiliate them under the Emperor’s feet would drive any Empress, no matter how incompetent, to desperation, anger and rage.”

“Master, should we let the Barbarians continue their arrogant ways?” Little Kingfisher was eager to move, “Why don’t I teach them a lesson?”

“No,” Lin Qingluo’s gaze burned with powerful determination, “Tomorrow, I will personally take action and crush the Barbarians’ arrogance!”
