The Villains' Pampering Is Too Great!

Chapter 176: Riding and Shooting

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

As the horse ran, he let go of his grip on the reins and clamped his legs around the horse’s flank. Even as the horse galloped, he did not fall.

The young man drew an arrow in one swift motion, and right on the heels of that, he drew the bow and shot the arrow in one go.

Obviously, such training was common in the Nangong Family.

The arrow hit the bullseye of the target. Accompanied by the cheers of the youths, Nangong Yunyao shot the remaining nine arrows right after. Other than one that hit the outer circle near the bullseye, the rest were all ten points.

After Nangong Yunyao left the stage, the others also mounted their horses and shot arrows.

There were good and bad results. The teacher recorded their scores.

At this moment, Nangong Yunxuan saw Lu Xiaocha and the others standing outside the shooting range. She was still brooding over what had happened yesterday. She rolled her eyes and thought of a plan.

“Second Brother, since you’ve brought guests, what’s the point of just watching? Bring them along to play.”

Her voice attracted everyone’s attention.

The young men and women looked at the four strangers and thought of the news they had heard yesterday. They looked at Nangong Yunxuan with strange expressions.

They heard that the First Elder was so angry that he vomited blood and was carried back.

“You’re the Patriarch’s nephews and niece.”

A youth walked over and confirmed that Nangong Yunyao’s riding and shooting results were the best among the youths.

“Wow, are you twins? You look alike!”

He looked at Lu Xiaocha and Lu Beichen in surprise.

Lu Beichen said, “We’re twins.”

There was a hint of pride in his tone.

“Do you want to come in and play? Do you know how to ride a horse? I’ll teach you.”

He was very enthusiastic.

“I can ride.”

Nangong Yunxuan walked over and provoked, “The horses of the Nangong Family are different from those horses outside. Aren’t you from the heretic bureau? You should be quite skilled, right? Do you dare to try?”

Nangong Yunhuan frowned. “Nangong Yunxuan, don’t go overboard.”

“I didn’t! I just invited them to experience the Nangong Family’s riding and shooting course. It’s their business whether they dare or not. Second Brother, why are you talking so much?”

She looked at Lu Xiaocha. “Do you dare?”

Lu Xiaocha said, “You think I’ll go just because you want me to? You think too highly of yourself.”

Nangong Yunxuan stomped her feet and looked at Lu Xiaocha hatefully. “I think you just don’t dare! Why would the heretic bureau accept such useless people like you?”

Lu Xiaocha asked, “Has your grandfather recovered?”

Nangong Yunxuan was speechless.

Not to mention her grandfather, she also wanted to vomit blood now.

The others watched the exchange curiously and gossipily. When they heard the First Elder vomit blood, it undoubtedly confirmed the rumors from yesterday.

For a moment, everyone became even more gossipy.

Nangong Yunxuan gritted her teeth and her eyes turned red with anger. “Compete with me if you can. If you win, I’ll apologize. If you lose, apologize to me and get out of the Nangong Family!”

Nangong Yunhuan said, “It’s not up to you to decide the Nangong Family!”

Nangong Yunxuan ignored him and stared at Lu Xiaocha. “Do you dare?!”

Lu Xiaocha: “… Why are you staring at me? Are your eyes bigger than mine?!”

Although she asked both of them, she was staring at her alone. Was she trying to provoke her?

Nangong Yunxuan: “… I’m just asking if you dare! Don’t tell me you’re afraid of losing.”

Lu Xiaocha touched her chin. “No. I don’t want your apology. It’s obvious that you don’t mean it.”

Fu Ye and her two brothers laughed.

She wanted to provoke them to compete in riding and archery.

Nangong Yunxuan was speechless.

This was different from what she had expected. Shouldn’t she have agreed after being provoked by her? Was there any fighting spirit left in her?!

Seeing that Lu Xiaocha and the others were about to leave, Nangong Yunxuan was anxious. She gritted her teeth and added more conditions.

“In addition, I’ll add a Vigor Consolidating Pill. This pill stabilizes one’s vitality and physical condition.”

The Nangong Family’s members present didn’t know whether to call her stupid or bold for she had put this precious pill from the Nangong Family on the line.

Refining the Vigor Consolidating Pill required a lot of medicinal herbs, and it was very difficult to make.

This thing was basically priceless on the market.

This was especially true for those who had exhausted a lot of energy for various reasons and were mentally weak. One pill could energize them without any side effects.

It could also make the elderly look more youthful.

Lu Xiaocha was about to leave when she heard about the Vigor Consolidating Pill.

“Since you’re so sincere, I’ll agree.”

Nangong Yunxuan clenched her fists tightly. How could this person be so shameless?! Who was inviting her sincerely?!

“How do you want to compete?”

Nangong Yunxuan raised her chin and looked at them. “There are four people on your side and four on my side. It depends on which side wins more. If it’s a draw, we’ll add another round!”

Nangong Yunxuan was very confident in herself and her people. After all, compared to the others, the Nangong Family had to get on a horse at the age of ten and learn how to ride and shoot after they were familiar with the horse.

She did not believe that these people could defeat her people!

Lu Xiaocha had no objections to this.

After the two sides reached an agreement, they walked into the shooting range.

Nangong Yunxuan had already chosen the other three on her team. Although her grandfather’s authority had been weakened and her treatment in the family school was not as good as before, she still had followers.

However, she looked down on those half-baked disciples.

Nangong Yunhuan was a little helpless. Why did she have to agree?

Nangong Yunyi was very open-minded. “Second Brother, don’t worry. Anyway, it’s already like this. If we lose, we can just look for Grandpa.”

“Young lady, let me go first.”

A tall and burly man walked out. The others immediately sighed when they saw him.

“Nangong Yunxuan, what kind of family school disciple is he? He’s your guard, isn’t he?”

Nangong Yunxuan snorted coldly. “I only said that I would send three people here. I didn’t say that I would choose disciples from the family school.”

She was even playing the word game.

Nangong Yunhuan’s face darkened, “Since that’s the case, how about I do it too?”

Nangong Yunxuan didn’t dare to say anything.

Second Young Master Nangong Yunhuan’s riding and shooting was the best in the family school. Even her guards could not compare to him.

Of course she was unwilling.

“Second brother, you are a member of the Nangong Family. You don’t count!”

She was planning to go back on her word. The disciples in the family school looked at her with disdain.

She was always this unreasonable, and she refused to change.

Did she really think that the family was still under the First Elder’s rule?

Fu Ye sneered and walked in first. “Then let me do the first round.”

His casual and natural attitude made it seem like he was the owner of this place.

Nangong Yunxuan looked at Nangong Yunhuan proudly. “They said it themselves. Second Brother, you can’t stop them, right?”

“That’s right, Second Young Master. They don’t know what’s good for them,” Nangong Yunxuan’s lackey chimed in.

Although they looked down on Nangong Yunxuan and the others, the disciples of the family school watched this competition curiously.

Fu Ye picked a bow, chose a horse, and easily mounted it in front of everyone.
