The Bad Girl's Quick Transmigration System: Traveling Back and Forth
Chapter 591: The Snow Blade is Unburned, the Sparks Burn Forever, the Bloody Sunset, the Sharp Blade
Black Wind City, a fortress nestled in the bitter cold of the borderlands, earned its name from the perpetual sandstorms and the ubiquitous black flags that blanketed the city. At this moment, deep within the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion, the air was so thick it felt as if blood was dripping from it.
The torchlight cast swaying, sinister shadows on the damp stone walls, amplifying the bloody, charred smell of burning in the air. Several bodies lay scattered across the ground: guards in black armor and warriors in tailored, vaguely female forms. Their weapons—the short blades, longbows, and rapiers that had once infuriated their enemies—were now broken or bloodied, scattered beside their owners' cold bodies.
"Trash! A bunch of trash!"
A furious roar echoed through the dungeon, shaking the torches' halos violently. The roar came from a burly, sinister-looking middle-aged man. He was the de facto ruler of Black Wind City, the city lord known as "Black Evil." He kicked over a rusty iron shackle standing nearby, sending it crashing to the ground with a clang, sending up a cloud of dust.
Heisha paced in frustration, his violent eyes fixed on the woman in the center of the dungeon, who was chained to the rack, covered in blood and tattered clothes.
Her name is Li Xueruo, the captain of the Snow Blade Team.
Even in such a dire situation, Li Xueruo's shattered face held no trace of fear or surrender. The corners of her mouth were dry and bloodshot, and one eye was swollen beyond repair. But the other, still astonishingly bright, like a star in the cold night, gazed coldly and with a hint of mockery at the enraged Black Demon. That look seemed to say: You can destroy my body, but you can never conquer my will.
It was this look, like an invisible needle, that sent chills down Heisha's spine. He had roamed Black Wind City for decades, slaughtering countless people. What kind of tough men and fierce women had he not seen? Under torture, even a heart of stone could be softened. But this woman before him, from her capture until now, had endured torture unimaginable to ordinary people, yet she hadn't uttered a single word about their team's secrets, not a single plea for mercy.
What made him even more nervous was that when he looked at Li Xueruo's face, which was broken but still showed an unyielding will, he felt an inexplicable fear and awe in his heart for the first time. This was not only awe for her personal will, but also a fear of something she represented.
“This woman…” Heisha gnashed his teeth, veins popping out on his forehead, “And the Snow Blade Squad she leads, they are like a poisonous thorn, piercing deep into my heart!”
The Snow Blade Squad, a mysterious all-female team, lives up to their name: silent yet deadly. They appeared near Black Wind City at some point, specifically targeting the forces of Black Demon. They robbed the rich to help the poor, rescued innocents persecuted by Black Demon, disrupted his smuggling routes, and assassinated his nefarious leaders... Their small number, coupled with their stealthy movements, tacit coordination, and immense combat effectiveness, have repeatedly thwarted Black Demon's plans, inflicting heavy losses.
Black Demon mobilized the entire city's forces, laying a tight net, and finally, when they were rescuing a group of girls about to be sold into slavery, he set a trap and trapped them. It was a brutal battle to the extreme.
Every member of the Snow Blade Squad was like a raging lioness. Archer "Eagle Eye" Lin Wei, having exhausted her arrows, smashed the last enemy's head with her broken bow. "Night Cat" Su Mei, skilled in stealth and assassination, detonated the last of her specially crafted smoke bombs, wiping out several enemies along with her. "Medicine King" Bai Ling, a master of both medicine and poison, used her last remaining strength to pour a deadly poison onto the Black Evil Guards charging forward...
As the team leader, Li Xueruo fought bravely, wielding the longsword known as "Liushuang" (Flowing Frost), which she slew countless enemies, leaving several cracks in the blade. Ultimately, she fought to exhaustion to protect the last two team members and the rescued girl, and was captured by Heisha himself.
However, Heisha hadn't expected that the two members who had broken through, after safely delivering the girls to a secret location, would return and attempt to rescue the captain. Naturally, they were outnumbered and both died outside the prison gate, taking with them more than a dozen of his elite men.
Thinking of this, Heisha's violent anger and the inexplicable fear intertwined, almost causing him to lose control. He suddenly drew the sword from his waist and walked towards Li Xueruo step by step.
"Tell me! Who is your mastermind behind this? Where is your base?!" Heisha's voice sounded like it came from hell.
Li Xueruo raised her head with difficulty, her cracked lips moving as she uttered a hoarse yet clear voice, "Heisha... you've committed countless evil deeds and exploited the people of your community... The sky over Black Wind City won't remain this dark forever... We, Snow Blades... may have been defeated... but more people will... stand up..."
Her voice grew lower and lower, and her breath became unstable, but her unyielding will filled the entire dungeon like a substance.
Heisha was completely enraged, a frenzied murderous intent flashing across his face. "Great! Great Snow Blade Team! Great Li Xueruo! Since you're not accepting my offer, don't blame me for being ruthless! I'll make you witness with your own eyes how your spirit and your faith are completely crushed by me!"
He raised the knife in his hand, and the blade flashed with the cold light of death in the light of the torch.
Li Xueruo closed the eye that could still see, a relieved smile on her face. She seemed to see the smiling faces of her teammates, the joy of those they had rescued regaining their freedom, and the dark clouds over Black Wind City that would eventually dissipate.
"Snow... Blade... Will never... Surrender..."
The last four words were as light as a gossamer, yet they carried a tremendous force.
puff!
The sharp blade sliced through the air and also slashed Li Xueruo's neck. Blood gushed out, staining the ground beneath her red and splashing onto Heisha's hideous face.
Those eyes that were full of indomitable will finally lost their luster and drooped down weakly.
In the dungeon, there were only cold corpses, flickering torches, and the lingering smell of blood and burnt things in the air.
Heisha gasped as he looked at Li Xueruo's corpse. The inexplicable fear in his heart not only did not dissipate, but became even stronger. He felt as if the cold corpse was still staring at him with those empty eyes, silently mocking him.
"Burn! Burn all the corpses here! Grind them into ashes!" Heisha roared hysterically, as if only this could dispel the chill in his heart.
A raging fire broke out in the dungeon, devouring the last traces of the Snow Blade team members.
Heisha stood outside the cell door, listening to the crackling of burning wood and the stench of charred corpses, his face terribly gloomy. He thought that with the extinguishing of the flames, the Snow Blade Squad, his greatest threat, would completely disappear from this world.
He was wrong.
The story of the Snow Blade Squad came to a tragic end atop the walls of Black Wind City. But their spirit, their courage, and their conviction, like the brightest stars in the night sky, pierced through the thick clouds and bloody fog of Black Wind City, forever illuminating the path for those who followed. Their names became a legend, quietly passed down among the lower classes of Black Wind City. Their sacrifice, like a seed buried deep in the earth, awaits the day when spring will finally bring it to life.
