Noble Lady

In just a moment, the sound of feather arrows whizzing through the air followed one after another.

"Sister!" Xue Luoyan stood on the ground with the tip of the gun, used the force to leap over, turned around and shot, and the gun barrel knocked the nearest man in black away.

She kicked the spear head with her foot, and the spear was held horizontally in her hand again.

Du Jingyuan was a little stunned, but fortunately she did not forget the purpose of her visit.

She quickly unsheathed her dagger and struck the man in black in the back.

The man in black cried out in pain and instinctively stepped back. Xia He was even more decisive than Feng Jinyang, and kicked the man away. Then she drew her sword from the carriage and stood guard beside Xue Chenyu.

On the other side, feather arrows fell like rain.

The men in black also fell to the ground in droves. Their leader took the opportunity to escape, but was stopped by Yao Biaotou and his men from the Wuwei Escort Agency.

Without hesitation, he took away his weapons and tied him up with ropes.

But Xue Chenyu and his group did not relax.

No one knows whether this is another group of people who are targeting their caravan.

Just as Qiuhua, Xue Luoyan and the others were moving closer to Xue Chenyu, they heard a crisp voice ringing out in the night sky—

"Girl, here I come!"

Then, a small figure shot over like an arrow.

"Yumei?" Xue Chenyu looked closely and was a little surprised.

Yumei was wearing a dress different from the maid's usual attire. Instead, she was wearing a blue suit with a bow and quiver on her back.

She had a lot of credit in subduing the arrows from the men in black just now.

"It's me." Yumei grinned and turned around, waving at the darkness behind her and saying, "You guys come out too."

A team of archers and a team of swordsmen and axemen appeared at the same time.

There were about twenty of them, but looking at their aura, they all had the air of being veterans of many battles. Just by standing there, they had the courage to terrify that man.

Xue Chenyu felt somewhat relieved. Each of these people looked no simple matter. No wonder he could kill one of them with one arrow.

"Girl, what do you think? Am I awesome? I have done my job well!"

"Okay, you did a good job. Thank you for saving my life." Xue Chenyu smiled slightly.

Yuzhu also praised her, "You came just in time. I thought I would have a chance to die gloriously for the Lord."

"Pooh, pooh, pooh, don't say that." Yumei quickly covered her mouth with her little hand.

Yuzhu nodded quickly, and then let her let go.

Du Jingyuan muttered, "It came too quickly. I didn't even get a chance to show off my skills."

Xue Chenyu glanced at her. Why were they still arguing about these things at this time? He was impressed by her.

Du Jingyuan: "...Alright, alright, I also took action."

Xue Chenyu: "I'll let you perform well next time."

Yumei couldn't help but laugh, and then got a cold eye roll from Du Jingyuan.

"Oh, yes, I forgot to introduce them to you, girl. These people are the elite of the Jingxi Army. They are all veterans of the battlefield. They are all good fighters!" Yumei took Xue Chenyu's hand and walked towards the soldiers.

Xue Chenyu nodded slightly to them, "Thank you all for your help. I'm honored to be here. I'll thank you all later."

"Grandma Xue, there's no need to be so polite. I'm their captain." The man with the mustache who led the group clasped his fists at her and said, "We're just following orders."

"Even if you are here on orders, you have done us a favor. I don't need to thank you enough. You won't have to do it in the future." Xue Chenyu also clasped his fists and returned the greeting.

She just wasn't cut out for martial arts, but her father was a military commander after all, so it was impossible for him to not even have basic etiquette.

After their conversation, Xue Chenyu ordered, "Qiuhua, go and bring the leader over."

Qiuhua nodded and walked over.

Escort Captain Yao didn't let a little girl take action, but ordered two escorts to bring the leader of the men in black over.

"Captain Yao, what are the casualties?"

"There were no serious injuries, mostly minor ones. It was all just luck."

Xue Chenyu breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good."

The thing she was most grateful for was that she was not dead.

Knowing these things could happen and seeing them happen before your eyes are two different things.

Qiu Hua was the first to ask the leader of the men in black, "Who are you? Who ordered you to do this? Why are you ambushing us?"

"You can do whatever you want. But don't even think about getting any information from me." The leader of the men in black was very stubborn.

Xue Chenyu and Du Jingyuan's eyes met, and Du Jingyuan said coldly, "If you don't say it, there will be people who will say it. With so many of you, someone will eventually speak up."

"Don't even think about it! They are all extremely loyal and will never reveal the organization's secrets." The leader of the men in black said with certainty.

Xue Chenyu's lips curled slightly, "Oh? Even if you were stabbed with swords and axes, and your head was about to be chopped off, you would never speak a word?"

The leader of the men in black snorted and didn't take the archers and axemen present seriously at all.

"Okay, I understand." Xue Chenyu then ordered Yao Biaotou to tie the man to the tree. "From now on, you must answer whatever I ask. I'll count to ten. If you insist on not telling me, I'll kill you for every number you count."

After a pause, Xue Chenyu continued, "They are only injured but not fatally. As long as they go back and receive proper treatment, they can recover as before. But if you persist, they will all die here."

"So what? They are all prepared!"

"Oh?" Xue Chenyu's voice rose at the end, and then she turned to Qiu Hua, "Go over and ask them if they are willing to die here for a word?"

"Who doesn't have parents and relatives? If they all die here, who will take care of my parents, brothers, wives, children, and the elderly at home?"

Her voice wasn't loud, but it was just loud enough for everyone to hear.

The other men in black were either shot by arrows or stabbed, and fell to the ground injured, but they were not dead.

Hearing Xue Chenyu's words, he shouted loudly: "Chief! I don't want to die! My wife is about to give birth. If I can't go back, what will happen to her alone?"

"I want to go home to see my parents. I am their only son. I must go back—"

"Guihua just agreed to marry me, and I promised her that I would marry her after I got the money this time! I can't die here—"

The men in black fell to the ground and wailed in pain.

Their leader continued to challenge: "You actually want to use this method to force me to speak? You're dreaming! Even if I die, I won't reveal a single word!"

"Even if I kill them all now, you won't say a word?"

"Of course! If you have the guts, kill me without blinking an eyelid. I'm not a man."

"Good, great ambition." Xue Chenyu then turned to the black-clad men lying on the ground and wailing, "You all heard it. It was your leader who refused to save you, not me who refused to let you go."

As he spoke, his eyes fell on Yao Biaotou, "Leave one alive to confess, and kill the others on the spot and bury them. We still need to move on, and we can't bring so many people with us."

"hiss!"

Some people gasped, unable to believe that such decisive words could be spoken by the weak woman in front of them who looked so powerless.

"You dare to try and silence me!" The leader of the men in black was furious.

"Even if you don't speak, I will still let them know that following someone as heartless and ungrateful as you will not end well."

Xue Chenyu said lightly, and then ordered again, "Hang him up. Silence the others, hurry up."

Yao Biaotou and his men rushed towards the man in black who was struggling and wailing on the ground.

The leader of the men in black still wanted to force Lai Lai, but Qiuhua knocked him out with a sword.

Yao Biaotou also stopped the gesture he had just made to silence the witness.

Everyone could see that the girl was not a bloodthirsty person and she was just trying to scare the leader of the men in black.

"Girl, don't you want to take off his veil and take a look?" Yuzhu was curious.

"It's useless to look. None of us have been here before. This man's accent is obviously not from the north. It's very similar to the refugees we encountered today. Moreover, the person sent to ambush us is definitely not someone we know."

The captain of the Jingxi Army and Yumei looked at each other, and Yumei saw surprise in his eyes: This girl doesn't look like a rich lady raised in a boudoir in Shengjing City.

What a decisive killer!
