Chapter 917 - 917: Cheng Sang’s Might!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The Saintess was highly skilled in martial arts. Even without the puppets of the Holy Maiden Temple, it would be difficult to scheme against her.

The reason why Cheng Sang could succeed was that the Holy Maiden was careless.

Cheng Sang had been crazy for more than 30 years. Although she had always caused her courtyard to be in a mess, she had never shown any hostility to anyone.

She would only hurt herself.

Most of the servants could not catch her, hold her down, or find her. No one had been beaten by her.

Therefore, it was impossible for the Saintess to guard against her.

It was iust like how a D0isonous snake would never guard against a rabbit.

The Saintess did not expect Cheng Sang to suddenly attack her. By the time she reacted, she was already in the water.

She had a drowning incident when she was four years old and almost lost her life. Ever since then, she never went near the lake or pond.

As she grew up, she was not so afraid of deep water anymore, but she still did not know how to swim.

Her internal energy was useless underwater. On the contrary, because she did not control it well, she sank even faster when she circulated her energy.

After choking on a few mouthfuls of water, she finally grabbed a bag of waterweed by the sh.o.r.e and used it to float her head out of the water. However, before she could catch her breath, Cheng Sang stepped on her!

The Saintess was speechless.

The resistance of the water was too great, and people would slow down underwater, but Cheng Sang was as agile as a rabbit on the sh.o.r.e. Every time the Saintess appeared, she would mercilessly step on her.

She stepped on the Saintess again.

If she came out from another place, she would come out from another place.

She only stopped when Xie Yunhe and Cheng Lian rushed over.

She smacked her lips and turned around, looking innocently at the two people who had rushed over.

She stood upright and was especially well -behaved.

However, she secretly raised one foot and kicked back again!

Cheng Lian was speechless.

And so was Xie Yunhe.

Cheng Lian hurriedly got someone to go into the water to get the Saintess up.

The weather in the southern border was unpredictable. The night before, it was still wet and hot, but this morning, a cold wind had been blowing.

The temperature underwater was cold. The Saintess’s teeth were chattering when she was scooped up.

Cheng Lian hurriedly took off her cloak and wrapped it around her. She knelt on the ground and hugged her daughter.

“Sister! ”

She looked at Cheng Sang angrily. “Why did you treat Qingyao like this? What did Qingyao do wrong? If you’re upset, come at me! What’s the point of venting your anger on Qingyao?”

Su Xiaoxiao came over.

She stood in front of Cheng Sang and said indifferently to Cheng Lian, “She lost her footing and fell into the water. What does it have to do with the family head?”

“Oh.” Cheng Sang widened her eyes and learned a new line in a second. “That’s right! She fell into the water herself! I didn’t do anything!”

Cheng Lian muttered in disbelief, ” Do you think we’re blind?”

Su Xiaoxiao brushed the fallen leaves off Cheng Sang’s shoulder. “Cheng Qingyao is an expert. The head of the family is weak. How can she easily scheme against Cheng Qingyao? Who knows if this is her ruse?”

“That’s right!” Cheng Sang raised her chin domineeringly and pulled Su Xiaoxiao’s hand. “Let’s go!”

The old and young left without looking back.

Cheng Lian gritted her teeth at her valiant aura!

What pained Cheng Lian the most was that Xie Yunhe did not say a word throughout the entire process.

Even if he had only questioned Cheng Sang, she would not be so heartbroken.

Cheng Lian brought the Saintess back to the courtyard.

After soaking in hot water and was.h.i.+ng up for two to four hours, she finally recovered.

What was worse was that Cheng Sang had stepped on her head too many times causing her forehead to be swollen.

Cheng Lian’s heart ached.

The servant brought the ginger soup over.

Cheng Lian stirred it with a spoon and tasted it. When it was no longer hot, she fed it to her.

The Saintess had no appet.i.te. “I don’t want to drink it.”

“Alright, you can drink it later.”

Cheng Lian placed the ginger soup on a stool at the side and asked her eldest daughter, “What happened today? Is Cheng Sang crazy?”

The Holy Maiden actually could not understand either.

Cheng Sang had had a good time in the early years. In her lucid state, Cheng Sang should know that she did not know how to swim.

She had used this to trick Cheng Sang today to determine if she had really recovered or if she was faking it.

But Cheng Sang actually dared to ambush her and target her!

Why would the crazy Cheng Sang treat her like this?

Was Cheng Sang pretending to have recovered these few days, or had Cheng Sang been pretending to be crazy all these years?

“That girl is the trouble!” Cheng Lian was so angry that she could no longer control her temper. “Ever since she came to the Cheng family, there hasn’t been a day of peace at home!”

The Saint did not refute.

She was indeed a troublesome girl.

The more Cheng Lian thought about it, the angrier she became. “Not only did she cause trouble at home, but she also colluded with the Yin family and s.n.a.t.c.hed the position of the Saintess from Qingxue. I think she’s simply a spy of the Yin family!”

At the mention of the Yin family, the Saintess suddenly closed her eyes in frustration.

Cheng Lian sensed her daughter’s expression and hurriedly asked, “Does your head hurt again? Did I disturb you too loudly?”

The Saintess shook her head. “No, I just remembered something important.”

Cheng Lian asked, “What is it?”

The Holy Maiden touched her longevity forehead. “There’s a blessing ceremony tomorrow. I’m afraid I can’t go in this state.”

In the past, if the Saintess could not go, the ceremony could only be postponed or canceled.

However, now that there was a new Saintess in the Holy Maiden Temple, Yin Xiaodie could temporarily take over some of the Saintess’ responsibilities, although the formal handover ceremony had yet to be carried out.

Cheng Lian also thought of something and said worriedly, “It’s very disadvantageous for you to let Yin Xiaodie receive attention so quickly.”

Cheng Qingxue was despised by the G.o.ds, causing many people to lose interest in the Saintess.

In the last three months, the Holy Maiden had to consolidate her power.

If Yin Xiaodie a.s.sumed duty too quickly, it would cause many people to go to Yin Xiaodie’s camp.

This was not something she was happy to see.

However, she was helpless.

It was her face that was injured, she could still cover it with a veil, but it was her forehead that was injured. Could it be that she had to wear a Central Plains person’s bamboo hat?

How improper!

Thinking of this, her head hurt.

Su Xiaoxiao and Cheng Sang returned to the courtyard.

When Mei Ji heard that the Saintess had been kicked into the water by Cheng Sang, she gloated and decided to eat two roasted sweet potatoes tonight!

Cheng Sang asked Su Xiaoxiao, “Is Weiwei going out today?” Su Xiaoxiao said, “No.”

“Alright…” Cheng Sang crossed her fingers, her eyes darting.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at her restless appearance and asked with a smile, “Mother, do you want to go out?”

“Yes.” Cheng Sang nodded honestly.

Su Xiaoxiao tucked her windblown hair behind her ear. “That’s good. You’ve been locked up in the residence for decades. It’s time to go out for a walk.”

Su Xiaoxiao asked Uncle Quan to prepare a carriage and brought Cheng Sang out of the residence with Mei Ji.

On the other side, Wei Ting asked Yuchi Xiu to call Wuhu over.

When Wei Ting fought with the white-robed man yesterday, he smeared some spices on his sword. During the battle, the other party should have been tainted.

Wuhu was not an ordinary parrot. It had an outstanding sense of smell.

Wei Ting brought Wuhu to the place where he had fought with the white-robed man last night.

Wuhu smelled it and flew out with its small wings.

Wei Ting followed him all the way through the surging streets, past the spa.r.s.ely populated alley, and arrived at a very ancient old street. The streets were filled with old houses, some of which were already empty.

Wuhu flew into a courtyard at the east end.

Wei Ting came to the door and looked at the closed courtyard door.

He hesitated for a moment between slipping in and going in openly.

He smelled a strong fragrance of rice cake.

Finally, he raised his hand and knocked on the courtyard door.

“Coming.”

Following a young man’s voice, the courtyard door creaked open..
