The Fantastic Little Farmer

Chapter 251: Chapter 251: Shrewish Fighting Style

Zhang Yun let go of her hands and shoved her away. Yuan You gasped for breath a few times before swiftly leaping forward, launching a flying kick right at him! Anticipating that she wouldn’t just surrender, Zhang Yun hadn’t let his guard down. Pushing his speed to the absolute limit, he retaliated with a kick of his own.

Their brief skirmish just moments ago had given him a rough gauge of her abilities. Yuan You’s strengths lay in her Cultivation Technique and Body Technique, but in terms of pure strength and speed, he was by no means inferior. As long as he didn’t give her a chance to land a solid hit, he could hold his ground.

Yuan You’s strike was practically a sneak attack, and her speed was incredible. However, by shoving her away earlier, Zhang Yun had created a buffer zone. By the time she closed the distance, he was ready to calmly intercept her. Knowing Zhang Yun was a resilient opponent, Yuan You had aimed her flying kick squarely at his head to ensure he stayed down. But she hadn’t expected his reaction to be so fast. His foot struck the back of her thigh from below, completely upending her and sending her crashing onto the slope. Zhang Yun immediately gave chase. Winding up like a soccer player taking a penalty kick, he swung his leg for a massive blow!

Yuan You was just about to scramble to her feet when she saw his foot flying toward her face. Discarding all sense of grace, she hastily rolled out of the way, crying out, ”Stop! Holy... shit!” She realized Zhang Yun hadn’t stopped at all; he was hot on her heels. If she stopped rolling, she would be kicked instantly. She cursed his complete lack of chivalry, feeling that treating a girl like this was taking things way too far. Unable to even speak at this point, the realization that she looked like a soccer ball being dribbled down the pitch by Zhang Yun only deepened her frustration.

Yuan You quickly opted to roll downhill, using the incline to increase her speed. Buying herself a momentary breather, she pushed off the ground with her hands, launching herself into the air and gracefully landing on a tree branch.

Zhang Yun stopped beneath the tree and looked up at her. ”Are you treating me like a lion or a tiger, taking advantage of the fact that I can’t climb trees?”

Looking down at her clothes and hair, which were covered in dirt and dust, Yuan You could no longer maintain her usual aloof demeanor. She couldn’t help but snap at him. ”Being so ruthless to a girl, kicking someone when they’re down—are you even a man? Do you have no sense of shame?”

Zhang Yun put on an expression of exaggerated surprise. ”This is the first time I’ve ever heard someone refer to themselves as a dog! Does that make you a bitch?”

”PTOEY!” Yuan You spat directly at him.

”Spitting? Have you no public decency?” Zhang Yun dodged out of the way.

”I’ll spit all I want!” Having no weapons on hand, Yuan You didn’t dare jump down, knowing she’d be vulnerable to Zhang Yun’s attacks in mid-air.

Seeing her spit again, Zhang Yun suddenly started laughing. ”Come on! Spit again, I’ll catch it! You’re pretty enough; I don’t mind swallowing a beauty’s saliva. We can just call it an indirect kiss.”

Yuan You broke out in full-body goosebumps, nearly falling out of the tree in sheer disgust. ”Gross! How can someone be such a creep!” After hearing that, how could she dare spit again?

Having successfully neutralized her with a single sentence, Zhang Yun pressed the issue. ”Answer me! Were you threatening my family?”

Yuan You rolled her eyes. ”I never said that! One thing has nothing to do with the other; I won’t drag innocent people into this. Knowing your address just means I can come looking for you every single night!”

Zhang Yun had been genuinely furious, but hearing this explanation, his anger finally began to subside.

”Looking for me every single night? Tsk, tsk, so you are lusting after my body! I asked you last time—are you trying to suck away my Yang Qi? Do you want a taste right now?”

”PTOEY!” Yuan You spat out the sound but, remembering his creepy warning, didn’t actually produce any saliva.

”I was originally going to say that I could get your master’s address from Old Zhang,” Zhang Yun said. ”But since you still have a bottom line, I have my principles too. I won’t mess with your master!”

Yuan You shuddered, realizing that if she had angrily threatened his father just now, this kid would have retaliated against her master. If he acted from the shadows, her master would find it impossible to defend against him.

”Don’t you dare!” Yuan You said. ”My master has no grudge against you. Whatever issues we have, dragging my master into it is out of line!”

”Then come down here!” Zhang Yun crooked his finger at her.

Yuan You had fully recovered her breath by now. Thinking back to how she had been chased and forced to roll all over the ground, her humiliation quickly morphed into anger. ”Why should I go down? You come up here!” Based on what she had observed the other night, Zhang Yun didn’t have the ability to leap into trees like she could.

As they spoke, Zhang Yun had already gauged the height of the branch. Combined with the incline of the slope he was standing on, even if he couldn’t be as light and graceful as her, it wasn’t an impossible feat.

”Is that right? There are a lot of rocks on the ground here...”

”Despicable! Come up here yourself if you have the guts. Throwing rocks is a coward’s move!” Yuan You immediately shouted. Stuck up in the tree, she was a literal sitting duck. Even if she managed to dodge, she’d be forced into an embarrassing tap dance along the branch just to avoid them.

”Throwing rocks at someone is despicable behavior?” Zhang Yun picked up a stone, asking the question deliberately.

”Despicable, shameless, and low-class behavior!” Yuan You nodded in confirmation.

Zhang Yun casually tossed the rock aside, and Yuan You breathed a small sigh of relief.

”I just had rocks thrown at me a few times earlier,” Zhang Yun mused. ”Turns out it’s a despicable, shameless, and low-class thing to do. I certainly can’t stoop to that level.”

Yuan You nearly coughed up blood, realizing she had just shot herself in the foot.

Right at that moment, Zhang Yun suddenly leaped into the air! Drawing on the Experience he had gained from practicing all morning, jumping onto her branch was entirely within his capabilities. But knowing he’d definitely get kicked if he tried, he didn’t aim for her spot. Instead, he reached both arms out and grabbed the very end of the branch!

”Hmph.” Yuan You scoffed lightly. Just as Zhang Yun’s weight caused the branch to bend downwards, she preemptively jumped, landing gracefully on another branch higher up.

But the moment she stabilized herself, Zhang Yun had already lunged toward her! He had used his weight to pull the branch down, and seizing the split second it snapped back up, he let go, using the rebound to propel himself straight at her!

”Get down!” Yuan You raised her foot and stomped down at Zhang Yun.

”Ah!”

The scream didn’t come from Zhang Yun. His upward lunge hadn’t been aimed at grabbing her new branch. Instead, he swiftly shot his hands out and bear-hugged her incoming leg!

Once Zhang Yun had a firm grip on her, his momentum dragged them both downward. Given Yuan You’s light weight, she couldn’t resist the pull and plummeted down with him. She knew that if they landed like this, he would end up pinning her to the ground.

This was an unacceptable outcome for Yuan You. As she plummeted, she quickly reached out and grabbed the branch she had originally been standing on, then kicked frantically at Zhang Yun with both feet.

”Ah—you pervert!”

Her hands had firmly secured her upper body to the branch, while Zhang Yun had her legs in a vice grip. The combined force of his downward drop and her frantic kicking resulted in her sweatpants sliding right down with him! Faced with the choice of being stripped half-naked while hanging in a tree or taking the plunge, she had no choice but to let go and accept the fall.

Furious, she wildly rained blows down upon Zhang Yun’s head as they fell. She had never found herself in such a compromising position before, feeling like nothing more than a street shrew brawling in the dirt. Punching him wasn’t enough; she felt the urge to rip his hair out just to vent her anger!

At that moment, Zhang Yun’s feet hit the ground. Still holding onto her thigh, he used his momentum to hurl Yuan You forward! Poor Yuan You, who had completely abandoned her image to claw at his hair like a wildcat, failed at the last second and was tossed mercilessly into the tall grass.

”You bastard! I’m going to kill you!” Yuan You quickly braced her hands against the ground and rebounded to her feet, refusing to give Zhang Yun another chance to treat her like a soccer ball.

”Pull your pants up! It’s blinding me,” Zhang Yun said with a look of utter disgust.

”Ahhh—!”
