The Rise of a General's Daughter-in-Law Doctor
Chapter 89 Outwitting Sect Leader Qi
Just when everyone thought Li Muxia was doomed to fail this time, Li Muxia made her move.
Following the man's momentum, she grabbed his arm, turned around, and lifted him up with a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw.
The audience was stunned. Even Feng Yuhan, who was hiding in the shadows and preparing to save the person, almost couldn't catch his breath.
Feng Yuhan had only just arrived at the foot of the snow mountain, and hadn't even had a chance to rendezvous with the Shadow Pavilion's guards, when he saw this woman step onto the arena. He thought she would concede this round, but unexpectedly...
There was a deathly silence below the stage. The man on stage looked dazed, as if he were saying: Who am I? Where am I? How did I end up lying on the ground?
Then, upon hearing a burst of laughter from the audience, the man realized that he had been knocked down by that weakling.
Anger and shame took root in the man's heart at that moment, and he had long forgotten what he had said before.
Just as he was about to unleash his inner strength and give Li Muxia a good beating, he suddenly realized that his internal energy seemed to have never existed at all, and he couldn't muster any strength at all.
The man panicked, scrambled to his feet, and glared angrily at Li Muxia, saying, "You bitch, you poisoned me?"
Li Muxia looked at the man and said, "Hey, why are you cursing? Can't you accept defeat? You're perfectly fine, you don't look poisoned at all. Besides, which eye of yours saw me poison you? Even if you're blind, there were so many people here who saw it. Ask around, did anyone see me poison you?"
The man glanced down at the audience, but everyone shook their heads, indicating they hadn't seen anything.
The man knew he must have been poisoned, otherwise he wouldn't have suddenly lost his internal energy. But he couldn't say it out loud; he had just told himself not to use his internal energy. He had to swallow this bitter pill, and besides, he didn't know if he had other problems besides losing his internal energy. He needed to end the fight quickly and find a doctor.
He glared angrily at Li Muxia and said through gritted teeth, "Don't think you can win just because you poisoned me and made me lose my internal energy. Even without internal energy, I can still beat you down."
Li Muxia wasn't annoyed and casually said, "Oh, really? Then I really want to experience what it feels like to lie on the ground."
Seeing the man rushing towards her, Li Muxia dared not be careless. She had only managed to take her opponent down by surprise, but now that the man was on guard, she knew she wouldn't be able to win so easily.
However, as a national karate champion, Li Muxia still had that confidence. He recalled that when he went with his mentor to support a small tribe, they encountered bad guys, and he single-handedly saved everyone.
Seeing the man's fist coming at her, Li Muxia quickly retreated. When she was almost at the edge of the ring, she stopped and got into a fighting stance.
The man smiled and said, "Hmph, why aren't you running away anymore?"
Bai Qingshi and the others were all worried for Li Muxia. Bai Qingshi said, "Xia Mu, remember what your master said. If you can't beat him, admit defeat. We're still here for you."
Only Feng Yuhan, hidden in the shadows, slightly curled the corners of his lips, his eyes full of doting: As expected of the person I like, so smart.
Li Muxia didn't look at the crowd below the ring. She was focused on the man's fist as it was about to hit her. Just as it was about to reach her, she turned around and dodged it. She then delivered a spinning kick to the man's back. The kick, combined with the man's momentum, caused him to lose his balance and fall to the ground, landing in a perfectly spread-eagle position.
Li Muxia didn't look at the man who had fallen to the ground. Before anyone could react, she slowly walked to the center of the arena, cupped her hands, and said to Tong Xiuyuan and Nangong Huaiyuan, "Senior, Prince Huai, you may announce the result now."
On the stage, Nangong Yufeng looked at Li Muxia with a playful smile on his face, thinking to himself: Although arrogant, he does have some cleverness.
Tong Xiuyuan also looked at Li Muxia: This boy is quite clever, but I wonder how many rounds he can win with these clever tricks.
He glanced at Feng Siyan beside him and said, "Siyan."
Upon hearing Tong Xiuyuan's words, Feng Siyan nodded and walked towards the gong. Just as she was about to strike the gong, the man lying on the ground suddenly stood up and said, "Wait."
Everyone looked at the man, who was covered in dust and had two lines of blood hanging from his nostrils.
Tong Xiuyuan: "Sect Leader Qi, the competition is over."
Sect Leader Qi stepped forward angrily and said, "Alliance Leader Tong, the competition is off. This Xia Mu poisoned me."
Li Muxia looked at Sect Leader Qi and said, "Sect Leader Qi, right? You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. Do you have any evidence that I poisoned you?"
"The proof is that I have no internal energy left, otherwise how could I have lost to you?" Sect Leader Qi said, looking at Li Muxia with a face full of resentment.
Li Muxia, seemingly unfazed, said, "What does it matter to me whether you have internal energy or not? You're not just trying to frame me because you can't accept defeat."
"I never expected that the leader of a sect would be so narrow-minded. I initially thought you were some kind of chivalrous hero. Turns out you're all show and no substance."
Sect Leader Qi was so angry that he pointed at Li Muxia with his finger, stammering "you, you, you" for a long time without saying anything coherent.
Seeing that Sect Leader Qi was too angry to speak, Tong Xiuyuan quickly tried to smooth things over, saying, "Sect Leader Qi, don't argue with a child. Since Sect Leader Qi suspects that he has been poisoned, he can find a doctor to check and find out the truth."
After saying that, he glanced at Li Muxia and said, "Young friend Xia Mu, what do you think?"
Li Muxia said with an upright expression, "I am honest and upright. Senior Tong, please investigate. I am not afraid of being investigated."
Tong Xiuyuan gave a few instructions to the man beside him.
A short while later, an old man carrying a medicine box came to Master Qi's side and patiently took his pulse. Everyone below the stage craned their necks to look at the old man, but only Li Muxia and Bai Qingshi waited calmly for the result.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the old man finally took the pulse and bowed to Tong Xiuyuan and Nangong Huaiyuan, saying, "Sect Leader Qi only has some liver qi stagnation, everything else is normal."
Everyone's expressions varied after hearing the doctor's words, and Sect Leader Qi exclaimed in disbelief, "Impossible! I was clearly poisoned. Please examine me again."
As he spoke, he stretched out his arm toward the doctor.
The old doctor was also getting angry; Master Qi was clearly questioning his medical skills.
Upon seeing this, Tong Xiuyuan quickly asked, "Has any evidence been found that Sect Leader Qi has been poisoned?"
"Forgive my limited knowledge, but I have not been able to detect any signs of poisoning in Sect Leader Qi," the old doctor said somewhat stiffly.
Tong Xiuyuan trusted the old doctor very much; he was the best doctor in their Jade Peak Mountain, and his medical skills were almost as good as those of the Medical Sage.
Looking at Sect Leader Qi, he said, "Sect Leader Qi, the results are in. It proves that Friend Xia did not poison the body. Do you have any further objections?"
