Chapter 339: Empress, You Must Control Yourself
Jiang Liang’s eyes bulged with fury, and inside, he felt a twinge of surprise.
He had let down his guard just moments before, which had allowed him to be caught unawares.
But this time, he was fully alert, yet he still fell into the trap!
This woman’s speed was so fast that he couldn’t catch up with her.
Finally, Jiang Liang’s expression changed—he had to admit she had some skills!
However, what of it?
Back when he trained at the Shaolin Temple, he consistently ranked among the top three; how could he possibly lose to a woman!
"Bring it on again!"
"Okie dokie."
Her Majesty the Empress was very pleased to have a fool willingly become her human punching bag, speaking in a cute, coquettish internet slang.
Yet, for all her cutesy tone and expressions, her attacks were anything but adorable.
In a flash, she was already in front of Jiang Liang before anyone could react.
Her delicate hands grabbed his collar, and with a turn, she executed an over-the-shoulder throw, slamming him into the ground with a bang.
That wasn’t the end of it. After throwing him to the ground, she raised her Flying Kick and sent him flying with a blow!
He crashed into the nearby sandpit, covered in dirt.
Watching Jiang Liang crawl out of the sandpit, dirty and disheveled, Xia Weibao sneered.
Pathetic!
Zhuang Xuejun and the others, including the photographer, the host, and the soldier brothers training in the distance, were all stunned.
How could this be possible!
Jiang Liang was their leader, how could he be beaten down by a frail woman!
After Jiang Liang got up, he wiped the sand off his face.
Being humiliated in public, and caught on camera, he had lost all face!
All his rage was ignited, for if he didn’t regain his dignity today, he would be embarrassed before the entire national audience!
How would he face anyone after that!
So he made a fierce declaration to Xia Weibao, "Just now, I was going easy on you. Now, let’s start for real!"
With those words, he ominously cracked his knuckles, making a threatening clicking sound.
It felt like something out of a gangster fight scene.
Xia Weibao sneered, "So the coach was just warming up, huh? Then I won’t hold back anymore."
Saying so, she charged at him fiercely.
Jiang Liang’s eyes turned ferocious, as he was clearly serious now.
One could see him throw a punch with such force that it almost seemed audible as his fist cut through the air.
He had only one thought in mind—to make Xia Weibao kneel and beg for mercy!
That would soothe the burning humiliation in his heart!
But unexpectedly, just as his punch was about to reach Xia Weibao’s face, she halted abruptly, and with a twist of her waist, she deftly sidestepped.
His fist sailed past her face.
Xia Weibao’s eyes sharpened, swift as lightning, as she grabbed Jiang Liang’s wrist and twisted it fiercely backward!
With a snap, Jiang Liang let out a squeal, "Aaah..."
Xia Weibao stamped down hard on the back of his knee.
Jiang Liang’s leg buckled, and he knelt on the ground with one knee.
Xia Weibao, looking disgusted, flung his hand away as if discarding trash.
She even brushed off her hands with a look of disdain.
Jiang Liang knelt there, sweating from the intense pain.
This scene left everyone gobsmacked!
Meanwhile, Jiang Liang, clutching his dislocated hand, gritted his teeth against the pain as he pushed and pulled it back into place.
Xia Weibao, her face full of disdain, pretended to be very humble remembering the cameras around.
"I’m so sorry, coach. I’ve trained in martial arts before too, so when someone attacks me, I reflexively strike back, occupational hazard, occupational hazard."
Jiang Liang, looking utterly wretched, glared at Xia Weibao with increasing ferocity.
He didn’t care about the camera anymore; all he knew was that he had to save face!
"Let’s go again!"
