Chapter 1667: No Surprise
Little Master glanced at Feng Wu and snorted.
Its eyes seemed to be telling her, “Without me, you won’t even have 10%, let alone 40%.”
Feng Wu stomped her foot in frustration. “You’re doing this because the race doesn’t allow me to change horses, aren’t you? You sneaky horse. You’re unbelievable!”
Little Master flipped its tail again.
Meanwhile, the crowd all gave Feng Wu strange looks.
Had this person lost her mind?
Everyone knew that the horse was bound to lose, so why was she discussing with the horse how to split the reward?
But Feng Wu didn’t care what these people thought, because Little Phoenix had told her confidently that this horse was amazing.
It was more than just amazing; it was the only Bloodsea Horse left on the continent.
Once it picked up speed, it was swifter than the wind. Only a handful of beasts could catch up with it, not to mention humans.
Feng Wu silently vented her sarcasm. “Why is this Little Master so difficult?”
Little Phoenix rolled his eyes. “A legendary horse comes with a temper. Of course it won’t be that easy to tame.”
Feng Wu gave it some thought and agreed.
“I’ll give you 70%!” She stared at the horse.
The horse snorted.
Feng Wu said, “Hey, I’m willing to give you 70%, is that not enough?”
The horse turned its head.
Feng Wu said, “80% then! Hey, be considerate! If you won’t accept it, forget it. Neither of us will get anything!”
The horse reluctantly agreed to the 20-80 ratio. It slowly stood up, yawned, then set off.
“Hey, I’m not on your back yet!” Feng Wu leapt up and swiftly landed on the horse’s back.
The horse moved very fast, and Feng Wu had almost missed it.
At the last moment, Feng Wu put one foot through the stirrup to keep herself on the horse.
That was a very dangerous move.
Before everyone else realized it, the horse had disappeared out of sight.
It ran so fast that it left an afterimage in the air.
The crowd was astonished.
“It’s so fast!”
“Gosh, is that real?”
“Isn’t it a sick horse? Why is it so fast? It looked like it was flying!”
“Sefiro is a long way off already. Feng Wu won’t be able to catch up with her, will she?”
“I don’t think so…”
If they had been very confident that Sefiro was going to win at first, they didn’t feel so sure anymore when they saw how fast the horse could run.
The empress dowager and the other ladies weren’t very far away, so they soon heard about it.
Mrs Dugu and Mrs Zuo looked at each other and frowned.
Every time they thought that Feng Wu was finished, she would make a comeback to surprise them. How annoying.
However —
“Princess Sefiro started out a long time ago, and Feng Wu only just set off. She can’t catch up with the princess.” Mrs Zuo shook her head.
Mrs Dugu nodded. “The result won’t be a surprise. Feng Wu is definitely going to lose.”
Lady Northern Feng frowned and sounded displeased when she asked, “Mrs Zuo, are you a member of the Junwu Empire?”
