She clenched her teeth tight, not letting that liquid flow into her mouth.
Persevere!
Keep persevering!
Since she said she would persevere until the end, even death could not make her give up.
This time, it was not only to clean her sullied name, but also to gain back the pride for those who loved her.
Yunxuan lifted her head and looked toward her six older brothers. When she saw the hurt and fury in their eyes, a flurry of emotions ripped through her heart.
She had so many people who loved her. Even if she died this time, what was there left for her to fear?
All she wanted was to let them know that she, Zhan Yunxuan, the Zhan family’s Ms. Seven, was not the useless trash they had seen and spoken of. That would be enough.
She would not continue embarrassing them.
She turned her sights to Zhan Xiao. This grandpa of hers, in spite of her overwhelming shortcomings, treated her as well one could ever do. No matter how many things “she” had done to make them sad, he would never blame her.
He had once said that she was his only granddaughter.
Actually, she really wanted to tell him that he was her only grandfather too.
Yunxuan strained a weak smile at Zhan Xiao. She looked at him and nodded, hoping that he would not worry over her anymore.
Bright red blood seeped out of the corner of her smile.
But she continued to smile, like she was not the one injured and bleeding.
Zhan Fengshi’s eyes were red. Crystal clear tears filled his eyes.
Her sixth brother, Zhan Fengqi, was slightly older than Yunxuan only by two years. When he saw the sister whom he had always spoiled and protected injured this badly, his tears flowed down his face.
He swore that from then on, he would work hard to forge weapons. Even if he could not stay by her side and protect her, he would still create an exceptional weapon the likes of which no one has seen before.
He really did not want to see her hurt again.
When he saw her hurt, he felt worse than being burned by a furnace.
The fourth brother, Zhan Fengmo, did not expect that the sister who was still joking and messing around with him not long ago would be injured this heavily. He gritted his teeth; it was obvious from his face that he was holding back.
He could not go out and help her, nor could he hold her up.
All he could do was to watch as she sat there helplessly and injured, like an angel with its wings broken off.
This time, if she did not survive this, all those who hurt her shall prepare to receive punishment with no hope of reprieve!
This was the first time he wished for nothing else. A cold and aloof person like him actually went as far as to want someone dead this badly.
Yunxuan looked at Zhan Fengshi. This was her brother from the same father and mother.
All along, he knew that when their parents were no longer around, he would be her support.
So Zhan Fengshi had always been sensible. At a young age, he had already earned the title of the best genius.
But he did all this only for his sister.
Even so, when she was hurt today and reeling in front of him, there was nothing he could do.
How could he accept this?
She really wanted to tell him she was fine. It was really all fine.
When she could not hold on any longer, she would launch an explosive counterattack!
What she had was not just the patience of man, but even more so, the ferocity of wild beasts.
In a battle of raw power, she had the primal fighting style of wild animals.
The rash feared the ruthless; the ruthless feared those who did not fear death.
The only tip to the primal way of fighting was to fight to the death!
Yunxuan lifted a hand, stretching out a finger. She wrote in the air, stroke by stroke.
Swipe, dash, downstroke and flick, curve and flick, swipe, dot.
Dot, dot, flick, swipe, dash and flick, dash and swipe, cross.
Dash, downstroke, dash and flick, dash, dash and flick, dash, dash, downstroke and flick.
Then she smiled at him. She looked gorgeous just then.
Zhan Fengshi pursed his lips, refusing to let his tears fall. Slowly, he reached out his hand toward Yunxuan, four fingers clenched tight, thumb pointing up. He thrust his hand out firmly.
Sixth Brother Zhan Fengqi, Fourth Brother Zhan Fengmo, Second Brother Zhan Fengyao, Third Brother Zhan Fenglin, and Eldest Brother Zhan Fengji all did the same action in Yunxuan’s direction.
In the audience seat, descendants of the four families and the mercenaries who came to spectate all did the same hand sign.
In front of them, this Ms. Seven from the Zhan family who was called “useless trash” was worthy of them doing this!
Even if she was heavily injured, she was straining to keep her smile and keep her family from worrying.
Her mouthful of blood prevented her from talking, but she could write it out in strokes to tell her brothers and her family this.
“I am fine!”
Indeed, the words that Yunxuan was writing in the air were the three words: I am fine!
From the corner of her eyes, she saw someone with ill intentions closing in on her. Yunxuan narrowed her eyes. Her eyes held nothing but coldness.
‘Kick me!’
She shouted out in her heart.
‘Let me reach the point where I can barely hold on anymore!’
Only then would she have the chance to launch an explosive counterattack!
That person did not let her expectations down. Under the public’s gaze, he put his leg out and kicked Yunxuan’s back.
On the audience seats, everyone stood up, one after another. They leaned forward with their upper bodies. Their breaths became shallow.
It was as if they wanted to know if Yunxuan could handle it.
Spurt!
Thick red liquid spilled out from Yunxuan’s mouth, painting part of the arena platform red.
Yunxuan fell to the ground. She did not get up for some time.
“Little Seven!”
“Ms. Seven!”
The audience screamed in shock, like they could not bear to see a girl die in vain like this.
Zhan Qing and the rest seemed smug. The five who were originally tailing around Yunxuan were already beaten half to death now.
Just as the proctor was about to announce the results, an unexpected sight appeared.
They saw Yunxuan’s unmoving body suddenly move on the ground, even though she had been splayed on the ground from the battle just now.
She slowly stood up from the ground. Her bright eyes were sparkling with a cold, suffocating presence.
Yunxuan looked toward Zhan Qing and the rest. Sure enough, she did not see them as people anymore, but a group of beasts that she would fight to the death.
