When Qin Qianqian collapsed to the ground, Song Yuxi held her tightly in her arms. She looked in the direction of Lü Tu, her mouth opening and closing as if she were saying something.

"Fuck your mother, Xu Jing!" Lu Tu's bow and arrow shot out. Although Xu Jing had been fighting with Nangong Huiyu, he had been keeping an eye on Lu Tu.

Since he had planted a mole within Lü Tu's ranks, he must have investigated Lü Tu's strengths and had already given warnings.

The moment Lü Tu fired his arrow, Xu Jing grabbed someone from the side and stood in front of him to shield him.

The arrow, fired in anger, pierced the man's brow and emerged from the back of his head, stopping an inch away from Xu Jing. Xu Jing broke out in a cold sweat, and Nangong Huiyu seized the opportunity to strike Xu Jing in the back with his sword.

He was amazed by Lü Tu's strength. He had only heard of Lü Tu's bravery before, but he never expected that Lü Tu would indirectly turn the tide of the battle before even entering the main battlefield.

Xu Jing turned to look at Nangong Huiyu and said, "Yu'er, we are already engaged, why must we go to this?"

"Pah! Don't you dare call me that, I'll cut your tongue out!" Nangong Huiyu cursed, barely suppressing the churning in her stomach, upon hearing this nauseating shout.

While fighting Nangong Huiyu, Xu Jing retreated to the other side of the battlefield, constantly provoking, "Look at these innocent villagers around you. They all died because of you. As long as you give me the method to activate the Xuanpin Token, I will immediately take my men and leave this place!"

Nangong Huiyu was no match for Xu Jing to begin with, and now that she was pregnant, she was already exhausted. But when Lü Tu arrived, she felt instantly at ease: "Xu Jing, my husband is here and you still want to leave? You're going to die!"

"What can he do to me, a mere martial artist? Yu'er, you don't really think I have no backup plan, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Nangong Huiyu was startled. She knew that Xu Jing was suspicious by nature and cunning, and would never fight a battle he was not confident of winning, especially since he was personally leading his elite troops this time.

At this moment, Xu Jing suddenly lunged forward and slashed with his sword. Nangong Huiyu barely managed to block it and took the opportunity to kick Xu Jing in the abdomen.

Xu Jing's strike was merely to force Nangong Huiyu back, buying him time to escape.

He simply twisted his waist, letting Nangong Huiyu kick him in the back, and used the momentum to roll out of the crowd. Then he mounted his horse and galloped south without looking back.

"Where do you think you're going?" Lu Tu, who was already close to the battlefield, stared intently at Xu Jing with bloodshot eyes. Seeing that Xu Jing was about to escape without any hesitation, he quickly turned his horse around to intercept him.

At this moment, Xiao Hei unleashed its full power, and it seemed to have its eyes fixed on the white horse under Xu Jing's legs.

Seeing that Lü Tu was coming at him so fiercely, Xu Jing had no choice but to bite the bullet and fight him on horseback.

Both men attacked in anger, their swords clashing and sparks flying. Xu Jing changed his slash to a thrust, intending to sever Lü Tu's tendons.

Unexpectedly, Lü Tu had no intention of dodging at all, and directly raised his knife, aiming at Xu Jing's chest.

Xu Jing's pupils contracted. He never expected Lü Tu to use a life-or-death fighting style, intending to decide his fate in a single move. He immediately sheathed his sword and switched to defense, but he was always a step too slow. In his panic, he could only try to twist his body.

"Ah!" Xu Jing's left arm was severed by Lü Tu at the root, and a large amount of blood gushed out.

How could Lü Tu give him a chance? With a flick of his wrist, he reversed his grip on the hilt of his sword, stepped on the saddle, leaped high into the air, and used all his strength to unleash the move "Single Mountain Splitting"!

In his haste, Xu Jing immediately discarded his longsword, pulled out a few round balls from his pocket, quickly dismounted, and used the fall to smash the balls on the ground.

A loud bang suddenly erupted in the arena, followed by a thick cloud of gray smoke that obscured all vision.

Lu Tu recognized that voice all too well—it was gunpowder mixed with lime! Was he trying to use some crude method to hide?

The hilt of the sword felt like human bones. Lu Tu quickly waved his hand in front of him, but upon closer inspection, he realized that he had only killed Xu Jing's horse.

He quickly held his breath and ran out of the smoke. When Lü Tu ran out, he found that Xu Jing had already mounted another horse and was galloping south.

Lu Tu quickly took out the ox-horn bow from his back, predicted Xu Jing's movement trajectory, and shot an arrow into the sky, hitting Xu Jing squarely in the back. It was too late to shoot a second arrow.

Lu Tu Chong waved to Liu Hong, who was not far away: "Take 10 men and chase after Xu Jing! Find him alive or dead!"

After saying that, Lü Tu turned around and charged back. Although Xu Jing had escaped, there were still a large number of White Lotus Sect assassins at the scene.

Lu Tu has already fallen for the "luring the tiger away from the mountain" trick once; he cannot afford to fall twice in the same place.

As he charged into the ranks of the assassins, Lü Tu swiftly and decisively struck them down, taking them down in just two or three blows. At this moment, he completely forgot that he was not yet fully recovered and that it was only the adrenaline secreted by his body that gave him a brief period of peak performance.

With Lü Tu joining the fight, the soldiers rallied and turned the tide, quickly killing all the assassins.

Lu Tu entered the crowd. Apart from Nangong Huiyu having several sword wounds on her arm, Song Yuxi was well protected.

Song Yuxi's tears kept rolling down her cheeks: "Husband, please save Qianqian, she took that arrow for me."

Seeing Qin Qianqian in Song Yuxi's arms, with an arrow in her chest, Lü Tu quickly picked her up and found only a large amount of wet, slippery blood in his hands. He immediately ran home.

Only there can you find clean cotton gauze and garlic extract. To remove the arrow from Qin Qianqian, a good hygienic environment is necessary; otherwise, Qin Qianqian will likely die immediately after the arrow is removed.

Nangong Huiyu and Song Yuxi quickly followed, and the other soldiers were also rescuing the people.

"Qianqian, hold on, you absolutely can't fall asleep, okay?"

Qin Qianqian's lips had turned pale and bloodless. She leaned weakly on Lu Tu's shoulder and said, "Big brother, let me go. I'm dirty."

Upon hearing this, Lü Tu completely broke down, and large tears streamed down his face: "You're not dirty, you're the purest girl I've ever met, Qianqian, don't close your eyes, I'll talk to you!"

Qin Qianqian forced a smile: "Brother Lü, ever since my parents and brother died, I've been so scared every day, but after meeting you that day, I'm not scared at all anymore."

"You don't have to be afraid anymore, I won't let you die!"

“Brother Lü, I know myself that if there is a next life, I will not forget my promise and I will serve you like a slave.”

"No!! You have to repay me in this life, who gave you permission for a next life?" Lu Tu was going crazy. Qin Qianqian had already lived a lonely life, and if she died because of him... He dared not think about what would happen next, and ran away in a panic.

They finally arrived home. At this time, Nangong Huiyu and Song Yuxi also rode up. Lu Tu instructed, "Yuxi, go boil some water, and Xiaoyu, prepare garlic extract!"
