The Cold-Hearted Princess Who Transmigrated Here
Chapter 78 Killing
This day has finally arrived.
In order to prevent Zhuzhu from going out, and also because she was worried that it would be too dangerous to take her out to fight, Wang Xiyue drugged her and let her sleep at the inn, where Mingzhe and Li Yang took care of her.
She and everyone else went out.
Night has officially fallen.
The Black Fiend Gang's main hall was quiet at this moment, with the gang members anxiously awaiting the final news.
I heard that this cargo ship carries a batch of valuable jewelry and jade, and may also be smuggling some salt. These things are much more valuable than cloth or grain.
If that's true, then this one robbery will be enough for them to live on for a year or two.
Before long, a scout returned and reported, "Boss, we saw a large cargo ship heading this way. The flagpole is flying the character '王' (King). Our inside sources say that it has nearly a hundred men escorting it, and the ship is expected to arrive at the dock in half an hour."
The deputy leader suggested, "Leader, should we notify the brothers to take action now?"
Having just enjoyed some tender moments, Zhu Hai was in high spirits and arrogantly waved his hand, "We'll set sail precisely in an incense stick's time."
"If I were to hesitate and look back, what right would I have to be a pirate? If they dare to pass through here, I'd dare to rob them."
"This time, we'll send 120 people, and leave 30 people behind."
"Yes."
After receiving the order, the pirates all went down to make preparations.
Just as everyone boarded the ship and was about to set sail, another scout arrived, "Boss, I've brought you two fresh 'top-quality goods'."
"Would you like to enjoy it now, or wait until we return victorious to use it at our leisure?"
Zhu Nan enjoyed seeking pleasure but knew how to prioritize. "Take him away and keep an eye on him. I'll savor him properly when I return victorious."
The Black Fiend Gang's pirate ship, traveling at full speed, encountered the Wang family's merchant ship in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
It was already dark, and only the areas illuminated by torches could be seen.
Wang Xiyue stood at the bow of the ship, her sharp eyes fixed on the approaching Black Fiend Gang's large ship.
It truly lives up to its name as a pirate ship, with its hull encased in iron sheets and equipped with all sorts of defensive and offensive facilities.
She gripped her sword tightly; this was going to be a tough battle.
As the distance between the two ships closed, battle was imminent.
When they were less than a hundred paces apart, the Black Fiend Gang launched the first attack, raining arrows down on the Wang family's fleet.
The Wang family's crew quickly retaliated, using shields and bows and arrows for defense. In an instant, arrows rained down on the sea, and people from both sides were shot and fell into the river, splashing water everywhere.
Wang Xiyue stood firmly at the bow of the ship, brandishing her longsword and striking down the arrows in the air one by one.
However, the Black Fiend Gang had a large number of members, and the Wang family's fleet was struggling to cope, gradually falling into a disadvantageous position.
The Wang family's fleet was in trouble. Many people had fallen into the water and sunk to the bottom of the river. In the end, only a dozen or so people were still fighting back. They could only retreat and dodge.
Wang Xiyue and her men hid inside the cabin, making various noises to let the Black Fiend Gang know that they were badly injured and unable to fight back.
Seeing that the other side had surrendered, the pirates felt very reassured and moved their ships closer together, then laid planks between the two ships to allow passage.
The group waited until they stormed the Wang family's merchant ship before they began unloading the goods.
After more than half of the pirates had passed, Mo Yun led his men from a spot not far behind the Black Fiend Gang, taking advantage of the cover of night, and quickly approached the pirate ship in a small boat.
While the enemy was excited and confused, they successfully boarded the pirate ship, assassinated several pirates, and changed into their clothes.
They then brazenly hid the gunpowder in various concealed places inside the ship's cabin.
Everything is ready; we're just waiting for the right moment to start the fire.
Meanwhile, Zhu Nan and his brothers had successfully seized the Wang family's cargo ship without any hindrance.
Standing at the bow, he looked around and noticed something fishy about the cargo ship in front of him, which aroused his suspicion.
They clearly shot and killed dozens of Wang family guards earlier, and they all saw those people being shot and falling into the water, but now there is no blood on the deck, it's abnormally clean.
Just as he was hesitating, wondering if there was a trap here and whether he should retreat, someone suddenly launched an attack from the darkness.
A cold light shot straight toward his throat, moving so fast it caught him off guard. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and dodged the fatal blow.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out that the person who had launched the sneak attack was none other than the woman in black who had been fighting fiercely at the bow of the Wang family's boat.
She was agile and aggressive, clearly no ordinary guard. At this moment, she held a long sword and stared at him with cold eyes, as if she was ready to launch another attack at any moment.
Wang Xiyue gave her opponent no time to pause and immediately engaged in a fierce battle.
Her swordsmanship was fierce and deadly, and she gradually gained the upper hand.
Seeing that the opponent was not very strong, Dongfang Yu felt at ease and went to kill the other pirates.
Zhu Nan could also see that although the other party was just a young girl, her martial arts skills were superior to his. If he used ordinary methods, he would have no chance of winning.
Therefore, he had to use his unique skill in advance.
Suddenly, a cloud of black mist rose from his hand, enveloping him and Wang Xiyue.
Wang Xiyue sensed something was wrong. She tried to break through the black mist, but was bounced back by a powerful force.
At that moment, Zhu Nan's triumphant laughter echoed from within the black mist, "Haha, you think you can easily defeat me like this? How naive!"
Before she could finish speaking, the black mist suddenly exploded, and countless black fragments flew towards Wang Xiyue like sharp blades.
She brandished her longsword and fought back fiercely, knowing that she could not back down now, otherwise all her previous efforts would be in vain.
Wang Xiyue dodged the attacks on her vital parts with a series of quick movements, but many shards still pierced her body, and her clothes were instantly soaked with blood. She endured the excruciating pain and rushed out of the mist.
Seeing that Xiyue was seriously injured, Dongfang Yu was so angry that he disregarded his identity, flew forward, forcibly grabbed Xiyue, and pulled her to the back, saying, "Hide in the back and let me deal with him."
Dongfang Yu's martial arts skills far surpassed his opponent's, with a completely overwhelming barrage of killing moves.
Knowing he couldn't escape today, Zhu Nan stopped holding back and fought desperately, employing all sorts of survival tactics.
Seeing that the young lady was injured, the others on the Wang family's merchant ship launched an even stronger attack. In an instant, the sounds of swords clashing filled the air, and more and more pirates were killed.
Just as the two sides were locked in a fierce battle, Li Yang arrived rapidly from afar in a small fishing boat, looking anxious and distressed.
Under the close protection of "Shadow" and others, Wang Xiyue quickly sat down on the ground and began to focus on healing her injuries.
Without hesitation, she took out the Qi-replenishing pills she carried with her, poured out half a bottle and swallowed it to replenish the true energy she had consumed.
Then, she crushed a handful of blood-clotting pills and pressed them directly onto several of her larger wounds to stop the continuous bleeding.
Just as Wang Xiyue got up to continue fighting, she saw Li Yang rushing over covered in blood. "Miss, something terrible has happened!"
When Wang Xiyue saw his expression, her heart jumped into her throat. "What's wrong? Didn't I tell you to take care of Mingzhe and Zhuzhu?"
Li Yang, barely holding on, knelt down to beg for forgiveness. "Miss, I have failed in my duty. Shortly after you left, Mingzhe and Zhuzhu were kidnapped by the Black Fiend Gang. I was no match for them and had no choice but to escape and seek help."
He fainted after he finished speaking.
At this moment, Wang Xiyue felt as if her heart had been pierced by a sharp thorn, and she was in unbearable pain.
She couldn't imagine what would happen to these two people if they actually entered that place full of obscenity and evil. Thinking of this, she was extremely anxious.
With trembling hands, she checked Li Yang's pulse. Thankfully, there was still hope. She took out half a bottle of Replenishing Essence Pills and put it into Li Yang's mouth, hoping that these precious pills would work quickly to restore his vitality.
Then, she quickly took out all the remaining blood-clotting pills she had on her and applied them to the parts of Li Yang's body where the bleeding was most severe.
Wang Xiyue's movements were tense and focused. She knew time was of the essence, but she couldn't disregard Li Yang's life.
Despite being filled with fear and anxiety, she tried her best to remain calm and carried out the treatment in an orderly manner.
After Li Yang's injuries were treated.
Wang Xiyue was about to step forward and join "Shadow" to capture Zhu Nan alive and force him to hand over the person.
Then they saw Zhu Nan gather his inner strength and unleash a terrifying move, a powerful surge of black mist energy sweeping over them once again.
Wang Xiyue and the others reacted quickly and hurriedly dodged, escaping unharmed.
However, the "Shadow," which was the first to be hit, did not hesitate to block and defend, and inevitably suffered serious internal injuries.
Seeing "Shadow" spit out a mouthful of blood, Wang Xiyue was so enraged that her thoughts suddenly went out of control, and her emotions surged like a volcanic eruption, with a terrifying aura spreading like wildfire across the entire ship.
Her body trembled uncontrollably, her eyes revealing an indescribable madness and determination. Her power increased dramatically in an instant, and the surrounding air distorted and deformed because of her rage.
Zhu Nan had used forbidden techniques twice today and was already exhausted, unable to fight any longer.
At that moment, seeing his opponent as a crazed demon, he felt a surge of fear. He knew he was no longer able to fight, and if he remained there, his life would likely be in danger.
So, he immediately and loudly ordered everyone to retreat. His voice was filled with anxiety and panic.
Upon hearing the order, the pirates turned and fled for their lives.
After fighting for a while, they knew they were in grave danger, because the opponents they had faced today were all tough nut to crack. If they didn't run away soon, they might really die here. So, as soon as they heard the gang leader speak, they couldn't wait to start retreating.
Screams and shouts mingled together, creating a chaotic scene. Some people at the back were still rushing forward because they hadn't heard the orders, while those at the front were desperately retreating. This caused the people on the deck to be crammed together, and many pirates who couldn't get a foothold were trampled down and used as stepping stones.
Some pirates were so pushed that they jumped off the ship, thinking they could escape to safety in the water, only to find that the enemy was lying in ambush, waiting to kill them.
Zhu Nan kept his eyes fixed on the crazed woman in front of him, an enemy who filled him with unprecedented fear.
Wang Xiyue approached Zhu Nan step by step with a blank expression. The sword in her right hand dragged on the ground, and the sharp tip of the sword cut through the ground, making a piercing sound, as if announcing the approach of death.
How dare they touch Zhuzhu and Mingzhe, and even hurt "Shadow"? They're practically testing her limits of tolerance.
Every step she took carried an indescribable sense of oppression, as if even the air around her had solidified, making it hard for those around her to breathe.
Zhu Nan broke out in a cold sweat. He gripped his weapon tightly, his heart filled with the fear of impending death.
He knew that facing such a formidable enemy, he would likely lose his life today.
Wang Xiyue's eyes were cold and resolute, her steps were slow but powerful, as if nothing could stop her from moving forward.
The aura emanating from her filled Zhu Nan with despair, as if she were a messenger from hell, there to reap lives.
As Wang Xiyue approached, Zhu Nan's heart pounded faster and faster, and his breathing became rapid. He had never been so afraid of anyone, especially a woman.
