In the bushes, when the black-clad leader and the skinny man were about to attack Jiang Song, they saw her dealing with the third and fourth brothers.

Seeing the bodies of the second and sixth brothers falling to the ground in such a tragic manner, he was immediately frightened out of his wits.

They never imagined that this seemingly weak woman was so powerful and killed their four brothers in the blink of an eye.

No wonder Mrs. Du was willing to spend a huge sum of money to hire them. This woman is indeed not simple!

The leader in black cursed "bad luck" in his heart, knowing that this mission might be difficult to complete.

He was a cautious person, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he immediately wanted to withdraw.

Seeing this, the skinny man quickly turned around and ran, fearing that if he ran too slowly, he would be caught up by the woman and end up with his head and body separated.

However, they had only taken a few steps when they heard a cold voice behind them: "Want to run? Not that easy!"

Jiang Song's figure was as fast as lightning, and he caught up in an instant. The double star sword in his hand flashed with cold light and went straight to the back of the black-clothed leader.

The leader in black felt the sharp sword energy coming from behind, and was startled, and quickly swung his sword to block it.

"Clang!" A sound of metal clashing was heard, and the leader in black felt his arm go numb, and the knife in his hand almost flew out.

He was secretly shocked. He was a high-level warrior, but he couldn't block the woman's sword!

Unless this woman is not only good at martial arts, she is probably also a cultivator!

Thinking of this, the leader in black became even more panicked. He knew that he had really hit a wall this time.

Jiang Song took advantage of the situation and wielded the Double Star Sword with impenetrable force and each move was fatal, forcing the leader in black to retreat step by step.

The skinny man was terrified when he saw that the boss was no match for the woman. He took advantage of the fight between Jiang Song and the leader in black and turned around and ran away.

However, he had just run a few steps when he felt a chill on the back of his neck and then lost consciousness.

It turned out that Jiang Song had secretly released the spiritual power rope before taking action.

At this moment, she thought about it, and the rope wrapped around the skinny man's neck like a snake, strangling him to death.

After getting rid of the skinny man, Jiang Song turned around and stabbed the black-clothed leader in the chest with a sword.

The black-clad leader was already at the end of his strength and was completely unable to withstand the sword.

With a light "puff" sound, Jiang Song's sword pierced his chest. Blood dripped down the sword onto the snow, staining it red.

The black-robed leader stared at Jiang Song with eyes wide open, his face filled with astonishment. "Please spare my life, Fairy! I, I'm willing to tell you anything..."

Jiang Song looked at him coldly, without a trace of pity in his eyes.

She slowly pulled out the sword, letting the blood gush out from the black-clad leader's chest.

"Now, it's too late."

The leader in black fell heavily to the ground, his eyes wide open, as if he died with his eyes open.

Jiang Song turned and walked towards Xiuyun, and saw her curled up behind a huge rock, her face pale and her body trembling.

"Xiuyun, don't be afraid, everything is fine." Jiang Song comforted her softly and reached out to help her up.

Xiuyun was still terrified when she saw the corpses and bloodstains all over the ground, but she knew that Jiang Song was her only support at this moment.

She hugged Jiang Song's arm tightly, her voice trembling: "Young Madam, what should we do now?"

Jiang Song took a deep breath and calmed himself down.

Although this was her first time killing someone, she didn't feel too much discomfort.

Because Jiang Song was very clear-headed. She knew that the rule of survival in this world was the law of the jungle. If she had not acted decisively today, she and Xiuyun would probably have died long ago.

Inappropriate pretentiousness and a sanctimonious mentality will only put you in a more dangerous situation.

Jiang Song took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the blood off the "Double Stars", then put the sword back into the scabbard.

She looked around and confirmed that all threats had been eliminated before she said to Xiuyun, "Go and search those criminals' bodies to see if you can find any clues."

Although Xiuyun was very scared, she still broke off a branch from the side and bravely went to check the bodies of the criminals.

Jiang Songze found a flat place, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and began to regulate his breathing.

Although the battle just now was short, it consumed a lot of her spiritual power, and she needed to recover as soon as possible.

Xiuyun carefully felt around the criminals.

After a while, she returned to Jiang Song with a small cloth bag and a few porcelain bottles, her eyes flashing with surprise and anxiety: "Miss, I, I found these..."

Jiang Song opened his eyes and took the thing from Xiuyun's hand.

The small cloth bag was a storage bag. It was not sealed and she opened it easily.

She scanned it with her spiritual sense and found that it was filled with 50,000 taels of gold. It seemed that the person behind the scenes had really spent a lot of money to take Jiang Song's life.

As for the porcelain bottles, Jiang Song opened them one by one and found that they contained some medicines for healing and restoring physical strength. It seemed that these criminals were preparing them for emergency use.

Jiang Song put all these things into his storage bag as compensation for today's battle.

About half an incense stick later, Jiang Song's spiritual power had recovered to a large extent. She stood up and brushed off the dust on her body.

"We can't stay here for long. We need to leave as soon as possible. Those people's accomplices may come again. We must be careful."

Xiuyun nodded and followed Jiang Song closely. The two of them went down the mountain along a hidden path, trying their best to avoid paths that might lead to being followed.

The afterglow of the setting sun shone on them, lengthening their shadows and adding a bit of warmth to the desolate mountains and wilderness.

When you reach halfway up the mountain, there is a giant old locust tree in front of you.

Jiang Song immediately saw a familiar figure standing under the tree - Jiang Dahai, the security guard of Marquis Anding's Mansion.

Sure enough, the assassination attempt that she and Xiuyun encountered today was planned by the vicious woman Du Shulan.

Jiang Song hurriedly pulled Xiuyun aside and whispered, "Xiuyun, hide first and don't make any noise. I'll go over and deal with some trouble."

Xiuyun nodded and hurriedly hid in the nearby bushes, leaving only a pair of nervous eyes exposed, staring at Jiang Song and Jiang Dahai.

Jiang Song straightened his clothes, trying to appear calm and composed, and then slowly walked towards Jiang Dahai.

"Uncle Dahai, why are you here?" Jiang Song asked in surprise.

When Jiang Dahai saw Jiang Song, his eyes were filled with disbelief. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and forced an unnatural smile on his face: "Third Miss, are you here to visit Aunt Cui's grave?"

Jiang Dahai's eyes flickered, as if he was weighing the situation before him.

He didn't directly answer Jiang Song's question, but instead asked tentatively, "Miss Third, you came here alone? Did you encounter any trouble on the way?"

Jiang Song sneered in his heart, but his face was full of smiles.

"Yes, Uncle Dahai, everything is going smoothly. It's just that these desolate mountains and wilderness are indeed a bit deserted. But why are you here? Are you here to pay your respects to the deceased as well?"

Jiang Dahai laughed dryly, his eyes wandering. "Haha, Miss Third, you're joking. I was just patrolling the mountains and happened to run into you. Since Miss Third is fine, I'm relieved."

Having said that, he turned around and was about to leave, but his steps seemed a little hurried, as if he was eager to get rid of something.

How could Jiang Song let him go so easily? He lightly moved his lotus steps and seemingly blocked his way. "Uncle Dahai, you guys are trying to kill me, and now is the time to put an end to it."

As he spoke, he quickly drew out the "Double Stars" from his waist, and with a flash of sword light, he pointed it directly at Jiang Dahai.

Jiang Dahai's face suddenly changed. He didn't expect Jiang Song to be so direct. He hurriedly took a few steps back and reached into his arms, trying to take out something for self-defense.

Unfortunately, Jiang Song's sword was heading for his vital points, and the speed was so fast that he was caught off guard.

The sword flashed and was already in front of his chest. Jiang Dahai widened his eyes in horror, but it was too late to save himself.

"You...how dare you!" Before he could finish his words, the Double Star Sword pierced his chest. Blood gushed out, staining his clothes red and splashing on Jiang Song's dress.

Jiang Song watched him fall expressionlessly, without any fluctuation in his eyes.

She will never show mercy to anyone who wants to kill her.
