842: How cruel! This is so cruel!

How cruel! This is so cruel!

Jun Yexuan chuckled, "Qiao Qing buried the last person who was praised like that."1

Yin Lei, "..."

Xia Houshang, "..."

Everyone else, "..."

Mu Jinghang thought his sis-in-law was at the level of an idol to his third brother. 

Xia Houshang couldn't contain herself, "Ms. Qiao does know martial arts, but you should know that no matter how strong someone physically is, she cannot be stronger than an army. She may be fast, but is she faster than a bullet?! She may be good at martial arts, but can she beat a gun maker?!"

She then took over Emperor Yin's gun, "Today, let me show Ms. Qiao just how powerful and beautiful a gun can be."

Qiao Qing, "..."

Xia Houshang didn't notice how speechless and dumbfounded Qiao Qing was before she asked, "How many pigeons did you bring?"

The servant answered, "Ms. Xia, there are 13 of them."

"Very well," Xia Houshang said, "Open up the cage and let the birds out."

Under her command, the servant let out the pigeons. 

At once, 13 pigeons flew out of the cage.

Xia Houshang lifted her gun. 

Bang… Bang… Bang… Bang…

After 10 gunshots, the pigeons fell from the sky like rain. Those who were hit fell to the ground. 

Once that was done, everyone counted that 11 pigeons were shot dead. 

Yin Lei's eyes shot out lights, "Houshang, your shooting ability is amazing! It's nighttime and it's hard to see, yet you are able to hit so many of them!"

Xia Shixiong was proud as Xia Houshang lifted her chin with arrogance. 

Only Jun Yexuan stared at the pool of blood and the dead pigeons on the ground. He shook his head and said with much sadness, "How cruel! This is so cruel! These pigeons were just living their lives, why did you kill them?! They are innocent lives! How can there be a woman who's as heartless as you?!"

Xia Houshang, "..."

Xia Shixiong, ".."

Yin Lei, "..."

Qiao Qing + Mu Jinghang + Qi Yusen, "..."

Mu Jinghang remembered that bloody night in the Capital City and had to gulp hard. 

His brother knew better than anyone else what it meant to be cruel.

It took Xia Houshang some time to respond, "They are merely poultry that is served for dinner. How's that cruel? You've done things 100 times more cruel than this! It's so obvious that you're just taking Qiao Qing's side!"

She then looked over to Qiao Qing, "How is that? You think you can do that with your ancient martial arts?!"

Qiao Qing nodded, "Easy."

Xia Houshang was startled but quickly snickered, "You sure can talk big. I want to see how you shoot them down without a gun!"

She then ordered the servant, "Go get me another cage of pigeons!"

The servant left at once.

It didn't take long for him to return with a full cage. 

Qiao Qing started to walk away. 

Xia Houshang watched her leave, "Now that the live targets are here, you're running away?! Could it be that you are scared to battle?!"

Qiao Qing ignored her. She found some rocks and grabbed them.

Mu Jinghang saw those rocks and his lips curled up. Qiao Qing sure was resourceful.
