The Prime Minister's eldest daughter was betrothed to the powerful and influential Prince Reverent!
This should have been a great joyous occasion, but one was a famously ugly and useless ...
"This kid is pretty clever, a real talent!" Qian Youxue's face showed more appreciation, and she really wanted to pick up a hoe and dig the corner of the wall over.
"Miss, you really like that boy that much?" Yunhe whispered from the side.
“Aren’t we short of people right now? Your master wants to poach everyone. Besides, look at Baal’s team, I’m afraid there aren’t many truly capable people. How can the team grow stronger?” Qian Youxue: Baal’s team, apart from Old Black and One-Eyed Dragon, doesn’t have many truly usable people.
One reason is insufficient cultivation level, and another is that some people are used to stealing and robbing, and they may not be able to change their ways in a short time.
Mei'er thought her master's words were polite. There really weren't many good soldiers under Baal's command. She also found this kid named Jiang Hao quite pleasing to the eye.
"Alright, let's deal with this problem first." Qian Youxue brought the topic back.
At this moment, Jiang Hao's men collapsed to the ground one by one. Just as Yun He had said, they wouldn't kill their prey unless absolutely necessary. However, it was certain that those who fell were all poisoned. It seemed that Jiang Hao hadn't escaped this misfortune either.
Clang!
Jiang Hao's body was thrown out with great force, slamming into a tree trunk that snapped instantly, demonstrating just how powerful the force was.
However, the six-headed centipede also suffered a great loss this time. Jiang Hao's men tricked it, cutting off two of its glowing heads. Now, its four heads were twisting wildly in mid-air. Their mouths, which had been closed, were wide open, completely enraged.
"Brother, look, it's lost two heads. Shall we make a move?" Dongming pointed to the six-headed centipede.
"What's the rush? They've already turned two heads into this state, what would happen if they had four heads? Wouldn't they devour us?" Dongfeng said lazily. He didn't believe Jiang Hao was so incompetent; he was sure Jiang Hao had some hidden cards up his sleeve.
Jiang Hao painfully got up from the ground, dusted himself off, looked at his brother lying on the ground howling, exhaled a breath of stale air, and with a thought, a long whip appeared in his hand.
Snap!
The moment the whip hit the ground, sand and gravel flew up, and the ground trembled.
"What a cool whip! It even glows! It's definitely a good one." Mei'er's eyes widened, a hint of admiration in them.
"Silver Dance Whip, that's a high-level spiritual weapon. I never imagined that a mere captain would possess such a treasure." Yunhe muttered to himself, stealing a glance at his master.
hey-hey!
Qian Youxue smiled slyly. If even a small captain could have such good stuff, what did that mean? It meant that the Extraordinary Legion was not just ordinary rich.
"Master, please don't do anything rash. The Extraordinary Legion has a great reputation in Xuanwu." Yunhe saw through his master's thoughts at a glance. The Extraordinary Legion were not to be trifled with, and they wouldn't let their master take advantage of them like Prince Zhan and Mr. Buyu did.
Hehe, hehehe!
Qian Youxue blushed a little when Yunhe saw through her. She didn't know when she had become such a domineering person who would take advantage of others.
Clap clap clap!
Jiang Hao lashed out with his whip three times in quick succession, the last lash cleverly binding one of the heads. Seeing the other tentacles react immediately, he exerted his strength and twisted the head off with lightning speed.
The six-headed centipede danced in mid-air, its tail, which had been hovering on the ground, suddenly shot up and attacked Jiang Hao.
"Jiang Hao is going to suffer a loss. There are poison needles hidden in its tail. That thing will kill Jiang Hao." Seeing this, Yun He couldn't help but feel more worried. Since it was a talented person, he was somewhat reluctant to let him go.
Qian Youxue frowned and took out two porcelain bottles, placing them in their hands respectively. These bottles didn't contain any antidote, but rather water from the Snow Spirit Spring. Of course, this wasn't the spring water she usually bathed in. It was spring water from another opening, the same kind she usually drank.
A refreshing sweetness entered their mouths, bringing a pleasant sensation to their throats. Mei'er and Yunhe felt invigorated, and even their vision seemed clearer than before. They assumed their master must have given them something good, and Mei'er even smacked her lips after finishing her drink.
"Let's go help that kid." Qian Youxue said, then rushed out of the barrier that Yunhe had set up and landed on the ground not far from the six-headed centipede.
Jiang Hao was very cautious. The first attack by the six centipede's tail missed, so it used all its legs and quickly wrapped them around the silver whip in Jiang Hao's hand.
"Damn beast!" Jiang Hao shouted in frustration, feeling sorry for his precious baby but not daring to let go.
As a result, the six-headed centipede fell flat on its face, and after rolling around on the ground in a very disheveled state, it actually tore the Silver Dance Whip in two.
sky!
What a waste!
Jiang Hao must be feeling pretty frustrated, right?
Seeing this, Dongming's heart was in his throat. Jiang Hao had broken the Silver Dance Whip, so he probably wouldn't be a match for the Six-Headed Centipede. He felt a chill run down his spine and wanted to run away.
"Let's go, life is more important than money." Dongfeng said decisively, grabbed his brother's clothes, and disappeared like the wind.
They ran away?
Qian Youxue discovered that the Dongming brothers had left, and thought it was a good thing.
Without her help, if Jiang Hao were truly rescued, he would owe her a favor, which would be much more effective than openly poaching him.
“It’s over, Jiang Hao…” Mei’er pointed to Jiang Hao, who was being lifted up by the six-headed centipede. He was probably going to die without a burial place.
Qian Youxue almost lost her way because of a moment of distraction. With a thought, the Yin-Yang Sword appeared in her hand. She spun around and leaped into the air, taking advantage of the six centipedes' distraction to cut off two of their heads.
The six-headed centipede was stunned for a moment, not expecting its enemy to have such powerful reinforcements. A tingling pain shot through the spot where its head had been severed. Looking up at the silver sword gleaming in mid-air, it actually dropped its prey and turned to run back into the cave.
"Trying to run? No way!" Yunhe had set up a barrier at the cave entrance just as his master was about to make a move. The six-headed centipede bumped its head and writhed in pain in mid-air before immediately turning around and attacking Qian Youxue.
Qian Youxue dared not be distracted, and used her martial arts skills, wielding the Yin-Yang Sword to fight the six-headed centipede with all her might.
"Yunhe, our master is no match for the six-headed centipede. This spirit beast is probably of a high level." Mei'er said, and rushed forward without regard for anything else.
Yunhe first dragged Jiang Hao, who couldn't get up from the ground, to the side to prevent him from being trampled to death by the frenzied six-headed centipede. His master would be heartbroken to see such a talented person suffer.
"Thank you for saving me, young lady!" Jiang Hao bowed with difficulty.
"If you want to thank someone, thank our master. She only helped you because she saw you were a talented person." Yunhe made her words very clear, hoping that Jiang Hao would remember them.
