After transmigrating into the body of a stepmother, I led the villains in a rebellion.

In order to buy more time for Lin Shu and the others, Lu Shiyuan took the lead and killed several enemy soldiers single-handedly to boost morale.

Xiao Mu was determined to avenge his brother, and he was determined to kill Lu Shiyuan no matter the cost.

Therefore, even after seeing Lu Shiyuan kill several soldiers in succession, they remained unmoved and sent men to continue the siege.

Even if it's a battle of attrition, he'll exhaust Lu Shiyuan to death.

Lin Shu and his men laid traps and planted bombs along the way.

To give them a big gift and ensure their plan would succeed, she went so far as to increase the amount of explosives.

After all the bombs were planted, Lin Shu lit a signal smoke.

Upon seeing the signal, Lu Shiyuan, who was engaged in fierce combat with Xiao Mu at the foot of the mountain, immediately led his troops to retreat along the pre-planned route.

Seeing them retreat, Xiao Mu mistakenly thought they were afraid of him, and immediately led his troops in pursuit without hesitation.

However, Lu Shiyuan and his group seemed to have vanished into thin air, disappearing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Just as Xiao Mu was puzzled and preparing to split up his forces to search, deafening explosions suddenly rang out all around, dust flew up, boulders rolled, and the entire Langya Mountain shook.

Caught off guard, Xiao Mu's soldiers scattered and fled in all directions due to the impact of the explosion. Some were buried under rubble, some were blown away by the blast wave, and some were killed on the spot. The scene was a complete mess.

Xiao Mu escaped unharmed thanks to the protection of his personal guards, but he had multiple injuries to his face and arms, and was bleeding profusely.

"Lu Shiyuan!"

Xiao Mu's roar echoed through Langya Mountain, but was drowned out by the sounds of explosions all over the mountain.

Not far away, Lu Shiyuan and his group, who were quietly watching the explosion, were already shocked by the scene before them.

They thought Lin Shu's previous shot was already astonishing enough, but they didn't expect the explosive power to be even more beyond their imagination.

Watching the raging fire and billowing smoke at the explosion site, the pursuers were reduced to nothingness in the flames.

Although they had witnessed Lin Shu's demonstration before, seeing the power of the bomb in person still sent chills down their spines.

At the same time, they also harbored a sense of wishful thinking.

Fortunately, this trap wasn't aimed at them; otherwise, they would have suffered even more than Xiao Mu.

Those who initially didn't take it seriously, thinking Lin Shu was no match for General Qinghe, were shocked after witnessing this earth-shattering explosion.

In an instant, there was a complete 180-degree change, and even the way he looked at Lin Shu was filled with undisguised fear.

Lin Shu's strength is far beyond what General Qinghe can match; she is simply a killing god who has walked out of hell.

As the explosions gradually subsided, Lin Shu did not hesitate for a moment. Taking advantage of the chaos, she led Ye Xiang and the others to quickly evacuate from Langya Mountain and head straight for Xiao Mu's main tent.

Although Xiao Mu was ambushed, his forces were strong, and he only managed to eliminate one-third of their troops.

There was still a large force waiting in the camp; in a head-on confrontation, they still had no chance of winning.

At best, they have intimidated the enemy and boosted morale; the real battle has only just begun.

The night was as dark as ink, and under the cover of darkness, Lin Shu and his group approached Xiao Mu's main tent silently.

Outside the main tent, the patrolling soldiers were more vigilant than usual, clearly because the previous defeat had made Xiao Mu more cautious.

Looking at the heavily guarded camp, Lin Shu dared not act rashly.

If they were discovered now, they would surely be surrounded and killed.

Although the bombs are powerful, she's out of stock.

To ensure the success of the operation, Lin Shu led Ye Xiang and the others to deliberately hide quickly, using the dark corners of the night to cleverly avoid the sight of all the sentries, and arrived at the side of the main tent.

Lin Shu originally intended to capture the leader first, but who knew...

Just as she was about to take action, she suddenly saw Lu Shiyuan charging into the camp alone.

That incredibly handsome face, so sacred and inviolable as if it had fallen from heaven to earth, was filled with a chilling and resolute air.

His body merged with the darkness, making him seem like the Grim Reaper who held the power of life and death over people.

Seeing Lu Shiyuan like this made Lin Shu's heart skip a beat.

She glanced instinctively at Ye Xiang beside her, "What is he doing? Does he have a death wish?"

At this moment, Ye Xiang stood up calmly when he saw Lu Shiyuan barge in.

His face held a calm acceptance of death, and his voice was filled with the unwavering determination to stand with Lu Shiyuan through thick and thin. "What is life? I no longer care. This scoundrel Xiao Mu killed 130 people from the Marquis's mansion. From the moment he came here, I never intended to let him go back alive."

After saying that, he ignored Lin Shu's attempts to stop him, got up and rushed towards the soldiers.

Lin Shu stood there, stunned, unable to recover for a long time.

One hundred and thirty people?

So, what exactly did Lu Shiyuan and the others go through?

How did his mother-in-law, Ah Heng, and the other two manage to escape with him?

Lin Shu regretted it again. She hadn't read the original work carefully back then, which had led to so many doubts now, and she knew nothing about it.

Since Lu Shiyuan wants revenge, she might as well lend him a hand.

Thinking of this, Lin Shu got up and ran towards the main camp.

Inside the main building, the lights were on.

Xiao Mu sat on the stool, covered in wounds, as the military doctor treated his injuries. He grimaced in pain and cursed Lu Shiyuan.

"That damned bastard Lu Shiyuan actually set a trap in Langya Mountain and made me fall into it."

"He'd better pray he falls into my hands, or I'll tear him to pieces..."

"Alright, His Highness sent so many men to you, not so you could embarrass yourself. If you don't win this battle, you should know what your fate will be?" A deep and cold voice slowly came from the depths of the tent.

Upon hearing this voice, Lin Shu was taken aback.

That voice belongs to... Qin Zixuan.

She could understand that, after all, Qin Zixuan was the female lead's simp, and it was only natural for him to help her sweetheart in order to please her.

I just didn't expect them to meet so soon.

A series of hurried footsteps abruptly shattered the tranquility of the tent. A soldier covered in blood stumbled in, shouting, "Sir, General, something terrible has happened! The traitor Lu Shiyuan has led his men in!"

Xiao Mu suddenly raised his head, a flash of anger and contempt in his eyes, "What? Lu Shiyuan led his men to break in? Perfect timing, I was just about to settle accounts with him."

After saying this, he shook off the army doctor who was bandaging his wounds, got up and left the tent, rushing towards Lu Shiyuan's direction.

Qin Zixuan followed closely behind.

He had just stepped out of the tent when he noticed Lin Shu's movements and immediately shouted, "Who goes there?"

Seeing that his whereabouts had been exposed, Lin Shu made no further attempt to hide and got up to walk out.

She and Qin Zixuan were acquaintances, but also rivals.

If this is used as a cover, it's not impossible to take advantage of the situation and capture Qin Zixuan.

"Long time no see, Young Master Qin."

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Qin Zixuan was slightly taken aback.

He hadn't expected Lin Shu to be here, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. "Dr. Lin, what are you doing here?"
