Chapter 13: Beating a Man While He’s Down

"Tha—"

Before Zhao Xiangxiang could utter the next word, she saw Zhao Shuning in the distance giving her a sinister smile.

Then, she fell heavily to the ground.

Zhao Shuning did it on purpose!

Lying on the ground, Zhao Xiangxiang's mouth twitched in pain, but she dared not cry. Her father had said that crying in front of others was the most disgraceful thing.

Zhao Shuning walked over and said with a smile, "Sorry, sister. You're too heavy. I couldn't hold you all of a sudden."

Saying that, she intended to help Zhao Xiangxiang up. But at this moment, a big hand pushed Zhao Shuning's hand away forcefully, and then tenderly helped Zhao Xiangxiang up from the ground.

"Isn't Zhao Xue being a bit too ungentlemanly?"

"That's right. Arguing with a junior."

"When his daughter seriously injured Brother Zhao Shuning just now, he wasn't like this."

"But it's really strange. Both of them are Level - One Spiritual Pharmacists, but why can't Zhao Xiangxiang even last three moves against Zhao Shuning?"

Below the high platform, people were whispering to each other.

"Sorry, Uncle. I just wanted to help my sister up just now."

"Zhao Shuning, you're so scheming. Don't touch Xiang'er. Take your dirty hands away."

Facing Zhao Xue's fierce words, Zhao Shuning just shrugged and withdrew her hand.

To be honest, she didn't even want to touch Zhao Xiangxiang.

If it weren't for seeing Zhao Xiangxiang showing regret after injuring Zhao Huai just now, Zhao Xiangxiang's fate would be more than just losing two front teeth.

"Father, I'm in so much pain."

There was blood all around Zhao Xiangxiang's mouth. Two front teeth had fallen to the ground. With teary eyes, Zhao Xue's anger almost got out of control. He almost wanted to strike at four - year - old Zhao Shuning.

Zhao Xue gritted his teeth and whispered, "I'll make you pay the price."

"It doesn't matter. Kicking a man when he's down is my favorite thing to do."

Zhao Xue carried Zhao Xiangxiang off the high platform. Before leaving, he glared at Zhao Shuning fiercely. Zhao Shuning didn't care. She had lived for so many years. How could she be afraid of a small fry like Zhao Xue?

Moreover, even if Zhao Xue didn't look for trouble with her, she wouldn't let him go so easily.

The words he had said to her father before, Zhao Shuning would return them all to him later.

It's not certain who will let who off.

After the father - daughter pair got off the platform, deafening cheers erupted in the venue.

A Level - One Spiritual Pharmacist!

A four - year - old Level - One Spiritual Pharmacist!

There was hope for their Qinghui Town.

Old Man Zhao's eyes were almost squeezed into a slit with laughter. The wrinkles on his face piled up, making him look much kinder.

Zhao Zheng and Lin Min'er were still in shock.

It wasn't until someone came on stage to congratulate them that he finally came to his senses.

Shuning was a Spiritual Pharmacist? A Level - One Spiritual Pharmacist! As her father, why did he only know this news just now?

Zhao Zheng looked at Lin Min'er. Lin Min'er also looked utterly incredulous.

"Grandpa, I won."

"Xiaoning, tell me whatever you want. As long as Grandpa has it, I'll give it to you."

Zhao Shuning shook her head at this moment. "Grandpa, I don't want those precious spirit stones and medicinal herbs."

The old man still said kindly, "Then tell Grandpa when you think of what you want, okay?"

"Grandpa, Shuning has already thought of it now."

"What?"

"I want to have a competition with Uncle."

"What?!" The old man's voice suddenly rose several decibels.

Everyone present fell silent instantly and looked at the old man and the little girl on the platform.

"I said I want to have a competition with Uncle." Zhao Shuning's childish voice was firm.

Is this girl crazy?

What level of a powerful person was Zhao Xue? Was he someone she could challenge?

Did she really think that after defeating Zhao Xiangxiang, she was invincible in the world?

How arrogant!

Zhao Shuning didn't seem to be joking. This time, Zhao Zheng and Lin Min'er panicked. Even Zhao Huai on the couch clenched his fists.

Did little Ning'er know what she was doing?
