Chapter 804 The Reason for Lin Xue's Death and the Schemes of Powerful Families

*Thud!* A dull thud rang out as the crossbow bolt struck with lightning speed, embedding itself deeply in the center of her back. In an instant, a searing pain swept over her like a raging tide, instantly engulfing her entire body. Then, an indescribable numbness spread rapidly like a burst dam, causing her body to involuntarily stiffen.

Her head drooped limply, her gaze straining to look ahead. There, she saw a sharp arrowhead suddenly emerge from her chest, and crimson blood gushed out like a spring, quickly soaking through her leather armor and dripping down her clothes onto the ground, forming a shocking pool of blood.

Lin Xue stared wide-eyed, her face filled with disbelief. She simply couldn't understand how this crossbow bolt possessed such astonishing penetrating power, easily piercing through her incredibly sturdy defensive gear. These rebels couldn't possibly be equipped with such powerful crossbow carts! Only the Sixteen Guards directly under the Great Zhou Dynasty were qualified to use weapons of this caliber; even the local militias couldn't match it. And their camp didn't possess such weapons either—after all, it was just an ordinary militia unit.

As her life force gradually faded, Lin Xue finally collapsed to the ground, her body still trembling slightly uncontrollably. Her once bright and captivating eyes remained wide open, as if desperately searching for something important or a certain figure…

As he walked step by step to Lin Xue's side, Lin Xue seemed to sense the approach of death, but she still gritted her teeth and used the last bit of strength she had left to slowly raise her right arm with difficulty, trying to block the footsteps and sharp blade that the other party was about to swing a fatal blow.

But at this moment, Lin Xue was already exhausted and her bodily functions were almost completely lost, so any resistance she made would appear extremely difficult and clumsy—her once nimble hands now felt as heavy as if they were being weighed down by a thousand pounds; her light and agile body was now as limp and powerless as if her soul had been ripped out...

Faced with such a frail opponent, Zhao Kang naturally showed no mercy. A cruel smile played on his lips as he easily dodged Lin Xue's feeble resistance, then swiftly swung the longsword he gripped—a muffled "thud" followed by a chilling, agonizing scream that echoed throughout the space!

In an instant, a massive, gleaming, and incomparably sharp cleaver, like lightning flashing across the sky, swiftly cleaved down onto Lin Xue's neck, which was as translucent and delicate as white jade! In that fleeting moment, a shocking torrent of crimson blood, like lava erupting from a volcano, surged wildly from the wound! Thick, hot blood splattered everywhere, creating a horrifying scene of blood and gore!

Lin Xue's petite and delicate body swayed precariously like a candle in the wind, as if she might be blown over at any moment. At this moment, she felt as if she had been struck by a mountain crushing an egg; her body suddenly began to tremble and convulse uncontrollably. With a chilling "splat," her once stunningly beautiful head rolled off her neck without warning, like a ripe watermelon! In an instant, blood splattered, staining the surrounding earth red.

Lin Xue died tragically, her body instantly severed from her body, marking the end of her life. However, behind this bloody tragedy lurked a massive, earth-shattering conspiracy. After a thorough investigation, it was discovered that this was a premeditated and meticulously planned assassination.

It is said that officials from powerful clans, holding high positions in the court, with the tacit approval or even instigation of their clan patriarchs, brazenly colluded with the rebels in secret, successfully smuggling powerful crossbow carts belonging to the sixteen imperial guards out of the capital and handing them over to the rebel forces. The key figure in this mission was none other than Zhao Kang—a battle-hardened, experienced former high-ranking military officer from the local government, a rising star being groomed by powerful clans, and their ideal representative.

Zhao Kang was not an ordinary military commander; he was a master at the Lesser Completion of the Heavenly Realm. The reason he was able to easily decapitate Lin Xue with his sharp broadsword was because his strength far surpassed Lin Xue's, allowing him to behead her effortlessly.

He had long resented Lin Xue for repeatedly sabotaging their rebel operations, believing her presence threatened his position. Therefore, he secretly plotted this scheme to eliminate Lin Xue.

He displayed Lin Xue's head in a wooden cage suspended on the city wall of the largest city controlled by the rebels. He also hung her naked corpse high on the city wall of another rebel-held city, her body pierced by a spear that had entered her genitals and exited through her mouth, with drops of blood and white-yellow liquid still dripping from her body. The words "The fate of a whore" were written in blood on Lin Xue's chest, and the words "Lin Xue, the slut, died here" were carved into her back with a sharp weapon! He deliberately humiliated this fallen heroine, letting everyone know her fate!

Lin Xue's death plunged the court into chaos. Her passing not only deprived the people of a brilliant young female general but also severely damaged the court's prestige. Zhao Kang's true aim, however, was to exploit this chaos to achieve his own ambitions.

Lin Xue's death made people understand the cruelty and ruthlessness of power struggles. Her story of leading female special forces soldiers to victory against the enemy on numerous occasions has become a legend that will be passed down through the ages.
