Chapter 662: Crazy, Everyone Has Gone Crazy

~7 min read 1,323 words

The Longyan have all gone mad.

Because they truly, clearly saw a shadow stand out from among those twelve people.

Yes.

Just like a Cannonball, her large feet landed on the ground with a *splat-splat* sound, at an extremely rapid frequency.

I wouldn't dare say she is as light as a swallow, but she is definitely the one with the fastest running frequency.

Everyone was shocked.

Including the other eleven athletes.

How is that possible?

How could it be so fast?

She seemed born for running, swinging her arms, her two legs rapidly crossing. No one could know why her frequency was so fast. No one knew why she was so at ease when she ran.

She seemed as if she were tireless, even becoming more and more excited.

Speed.

It is what she seems to have been pursuing ever since she was born.

She is very happy.

Truly happy.

She feels that there is finally a place where she can run without restraint.

What is she running for?

Actually, she doesn't know either. But she has liked to run since she was little, and she likes the feeling of the free wind rushing against her face. Yes, she likes freedom; she does not like being bound; she likes to break through the shackles of the world, rather than being dragged off to bind her feet and get married. Her mindset represents the women of this era who yearn for freedom.

Women who yearn to break through the feudal ideology that the husband is the guide for the wife.

Run!

Run without end!

She has never known what it is to be tired.

She only knows how to run, breaking through her own limits time and time again.

The entire arena was dumbfounded.

What kind of monster is this?

One hundred meters.

Gone in the blink of an eye.

Very fast.

She was the first to cross the finish line.

Until this moment, everyone still had not reacted.

This...

How is it possible!

She is just a woman! Yet among this group of grown men, she ran the fastest?

Boom!

The whole arena exploded.

"Longyan!"

"Longyan!"

"Dominating!"

"Dominating!"

"Ahhhhhhh!"

"Amazing!"

A woman, this is a Longyan woman!

Hundred-Meter Flying Man!

The first Hundred-Meter Flying Man in this world is actually a woman!

The cheers and shouts could no longer be stopped. The scene was much more intense than when the blind man won the Archery championship. Because this is a woman, because this is a Longyan woman! That feeling of glory surged out from everyone. Yes, look, one of our Longyan women can beat you all, can trample you all!

"Good heavens..."

Everyone had this feeling in their hearts.

Now, who still dares to say that Prefect Liu is admitting defeat? Who still dares to say that Liu Zheng is a traitor!

He is the true big boss!

"Impossible, how is this possible, how is this possible!"

Mizuno Masashige was about to go mad.

His most confident event was actually crushed like this by someone? On his side, they only got a Silver Medal? Is this Longyan woman even human?

"My lord, my lord, this must be an accident, it's an accident!"

"Right!"

"The next two hundred meters is the main event! A woman's endurance cannot be that strong!"

"Exactly!"

The people beside him were trying to persuade Mizuno Masashige.

Mizuno Masashige nodded as well.

Perhaps her explosive power is better, but her endurance definitely won't be! It is like that with a War Horse, and it is the same with people!

And so.

Two hundred meters.

"Ahhhhhhh!"

"The female speedster!"

"Stop, that's enough, that's enough! The finish line is here!"

"Stop running!"

Another Gold Medal!

Mizuno Masashige spat out a mouthful of black blood.

Four hundred meters...

"Dominating!"

"First place again!"

"My God!"

"This..."

Eight hundred meters...

Everyone was numb by this point.

Why was she so strong?

Why was she tireless?

Why couldn't she stop once she started running?

And then...

The Marathon!

Li Qingqing ultimately won the championship with a lead of nearly three li.

Within half a day.

She took four Gold Medals!

"Pfft..."

Mizuno Masashige finally could not hold it in; he was so angry his whole body trembled, and finally, his vision went black, and he fainted completely.

"This..."

"How did she win again! How did she win again!"

Xie Fang was also about to spit blood.

"Your Highness, Your Highness..."

"Your Highness, wake up, wake up!"

The day's competition ended.

The Longyan took five Gold Medals!

Before this, no one could have imagined it! But it happened right in front of everyone!

Just those weirdos?

Just those women, old people, and blind people?

Who could have imagined it?

Yet reality is just like this...

It just happened!

Crushing!

It was simply a crushing victory!

The whole city celebrated together, reveling all night long.

Did you see those barbarians panting, yet still looking desperate? Did you see that bunch of barbarians, amazed as if seeing gods, their faces full of shock? Did you see them wanting to worship the Celestial Empire?

This.

Is the glory of the Longyan.

This.

Is the strength of the Celestial Empire!

The entire Jinghua stayed up all night; Xie Tianyao issued an order that during the Longyun Games, the city-wide curfew would be lifted.

It is said that this night.

The entire Jinghua consumed tens of thousands of catties of fine wine.

Every brothel was exceptionally lively.

The Longyan, from top to bottom, were undoubtedly happy.

After experiencing the Christmas Ceremony and the provocations of those barbarians, after experiencing the Grassland army besieging the city and refusing to leave, and after experiencing the "Liaodong Humiliation," for the first time, they felt that they had stood up. The Longyan was capable again; it was once again the Celestial Empire!

"What is going on, what is going on!"

"You bunch of trash!"

"You can't even outrun a woman!"

"Trash!"

Mizuno Masashige was so angry upon returning.

There were a full four people participating in the running events! And yet, the four of them couldn't even outrun one woman!

How were they playing!

Go commit seppuku!

……

"Great Khan, something is not quite right..."

On the side of Tiemu City, it was the same.

Originally, they had thought.

They would at least take one Gold Medal today; the Archery event should have been an unquestionable victory. But they hadn't expected to only take home a Silver Medal... their great general Zhebie had even lost, and what's more, he lost to a blind man!

The atmosphere was a bit off.

Tiemu City, however, laughed heartily: "The Longyan Dynasty is full of hidden talents, this is normal. Besides, we have already secured the Liaodong Dividend this time, why dwell on anything else? Remember one thing: the tree that stands above the forest will be destroyed by the wind. One should keep a low profile when necessary, and bow one's head when necessary."

He sighed leisurely: "The common people being well-fed is what is truly real."

"Why care about those empty titles?"

The crowd was immediately moved beyond measure.

"The Great Khan is wise!"

"The Great Khan is mighty!"

"Great Khan, tomorrow in Weightlifting, we will surely regain face for the Royal Court!"

"Good!"

……

The first day of the Longyun Games could be considered very successful.

Likewise.

It also ignited people's passion for athletic competition.

This alternative form of "war" seemed to give the common people a strong sense of participation and honor.

Therefore, early the next morning, people were full of anticipation for today's matches. More and more people began to rush to the competition grounds.

How many more Gold Medals would be born today?

How many could Longyan take?

Along the way, people were discussing it heatedly.

Sitting in the Horse Carriage, Xie Fang had a gloomy face.

"Last night, did you increase the dosage?"

"Yes, Your Highness."

"Good!"

Xie Fang gritted his teeth fiercely.
