Chapter 231: Yun Qiqige
Chapter 231: Yun Qiqige
Lu HaiKong didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but when he woke up, he found himself in an unfamiliar place. Every part of his body ached, but thankfully, after a few months in this world, Lu HaiKong had grown accustomed to pain.
Upon waking, Lu HaiKong first observed his surroundings and realized he was in a tent, likely belonging to the Huns, judging by its style.
Lu HaiKong was certain of this, as he had seen thousands of Huns in his ranch, and their tents were familiar to him.
The tent seemed rather large, larger than any Lu HaiKong had seen before, suggesting it belonged to a Hun of some status. Lu HaiKong noticed someone standing guard outside, and given his current physical state, he cautiously avoided alerting them.
Without disturbing the guard, Lu HaiKong carefully examined his body, finding that although he hurt all over, his wounds had been treated with great care. It seemed the owner of this place harbored no ill intent towards him.
However, Lu HaiKong's personality wouldn't allow him to remain helpless in this unfamiliar place. This feeling of powerlessness was especially unbearable now that he possessed formidable strength.
Instinctively, Lu HaiKong was about to check his attribute panel when footsteps outside suddenly interrupted him.
The tent flap was lifted, and a tall woman entered, accompanied by several maids in tight-fitting attire. These maids stood guard outside after the woman entered.
This woman was exceptionally tall; Lu HaiKong, lying down, estimated her height to be at least 1.75 meters. She wore a green Hun-style outfit, with a horsewhip tied around her waist, accentuating her slender figure and ample chest. Her facial features weren't particularly striking, but together, they formed a wild and beautiful visage. What caught Lu HaiKong's attention the most were her eyes, brimming with a proud and aggressive aura.
The moment Lu HaiKong saw this woman, he instantly knew this was her tent. Her gaze upon entering the tent told him that in her eyes, he saw a glint similar to when he looked at treasure chests and spoils of war. This look made Lu HaiKong quite unhappy.
"Woman, watch your eyes!" Lu HaiKong unconsciously spoke in Mandarin, then realized and prepared to use the Hun language he had learned from the Huns in his territory. But before he could, the girl approached Lu HaiKong, standing about ten centimeters away, and stared directly into his eyes.
"Is it really okay to speak to your savior in such a domineering tone?" The girl's voice was clear and melodious, and most importantly, she spoke Mandarin.
Lu HaiKong was taken aback, and without hesitation, he used his Appraisal Skill to assess the woman before him.
Yun Qiqige
Race: Hun
Identity: Princess of the Uyun Tribe
Talent: Unawakened
Age: 21
Abilities:
Strength: 70, Politics: 60, Strategy: 60, Commander: 70
Talent Level: Top-tier (Strength Cap: 93, Politics Cap: 80, Strategy Cap: 85, Commander Cap: 85)
When Lu HaiKong saw the woman's attributes, his pupils constricted involuntarily. Initially, he thought she might be an Outsider, but her attributes clearly indicated she was a native NPC, and a top-tier native NPC at that.
This is truly a rare talent; Lu Hai Kong's subordinates with top-tier talents are few, with only Zhao Er being one of them. Of course, Gao Shun, Dian Wei, and perhaps even Pan Feng could be considered as well, but Lu Hai Kong has never witnessed their talents and for some reason, Dian Wei's talent wasn't on the list during that mission's rewards.
Afterward, Lu Hai Kong pondered; either the talent-boosting reward wasn't limited to historical generals, or Dian Wei's talent rank had already reached its peak.
But back to the matter at hand, the attributes of the woman before him were evident—she was an NPC with immense potential. However, despite this, Lu Hai Kong couldn't bring himself to like her. Her gaze was too aggressive, and her personality too domineering.
"I see shock in your eyes. Are you stunned by my beauty?" Qi Qi Ge chuckled, her breath like orchids as she spoke to Lu Hai Kong.
"No, I'm shocked by your thick skin. Could you please move your head away from my face? Your scent is too strong, and I dislike it!"
Indeed, people can change. If this had been half a year ago, when Lu Hai Kong first arrived in this world, and a girl with a beauty score over 90 had treated him this way, he probably would've blushed and his heart would've raced. But at this moment, Lu Hai Kong not only lacked such a reaction but also appeared indifferent.
The main reason was that this girl was a bit too domineering, and in the past half-year, although Lu Hai Kong had grown in various ways, his temper had become the most pronounced. As a notorious bandit leader, Lu Hai Kong couldn't stand someone being more overbearing than him, especially when that person was a girl, and one who treated him like a prize.
In the 16th year of the reign of Emperor Xian of Han, in the 9th month, the book was error-free!
"You're truly a rude and overbearing man," Qi Qi Ge said, showing no intention of lifting her head and instead examining Lu Hai Kong more intently.
"I just can't understand how your frail body managed to capture the Mutated Horse King. But it doesn't matter; I, Yun Qiqige, have said that the warrior who tames the Horse King will become my husband. From now on, you are the man of Yun Qiqige!"
Her words were outright domineering, and her face lacked the shyness one would expect from a husband or a man. Instead, she spoke as if claiming ownership over an object.
"Sorry, I refuse!" Lu Hai Kong rolled his eyes, disinterested in this cliched romantic encounter. Of course, if their positions were reversed, he would gladly step into Qi Qi Ge's role.
Qi Qi Ge, in her overbearing manner, reached out and pulled Lu Hai Kong up, almost face-to-face, and said firmly, "I refuse your refusal!"
Just as Lu Hai Kong was about to respond, the tent was suddenly lifted, and a tall Hun guard barged in, ignoring the protests of the attendants.
"Princess Qi Qi Ge, you said someone captured the Horse King. Where is that person? I know you don't want to marry me, but you can't use such underhanded tactics. I, Uyun Tu..."
As he spoke, the tall man's eyes widened, and his face turned as red as blood upon witnessing the scene before him...
