Chapter 218 Don’t even think about using me as a tool to control Dongji
The private soldiers of King Yi, who originally looked ferocious, gradually became dazed and looked tipsy, as if they were drunk.
Some even hugged the tree trunks and began to shake; some knelt on the ground crying for their parents, and no one knew what they had seen.
King Yi looked at his people with a frown and shook his sleeves angrily.
"This Deng Youning is really capable!"
He was already beginning to feel upset.
He wanted to call over another group of people to continue besieging them.
He just didn't believe that his people couldn't deal with just two monks, two little girls and an old lady!
"Although these men in black were poisoned by the psychedelic powder, King Yi brought more than a thousand people with him."
"Now, they must be continuing to mobilize manpower."
"I will stay behind to cover our retreat. Masters, please take the Queen Mother and Her Royal Highness the Princess with you and leave first."
While the men in black were no longer attacking them, Deng Youning gathered everyone together to discuss the next plan.
After these fights, the wound on her ankle had swelled to the size of a steamed bun, and she had a limp when she walked.
The pain from the squeezing and burning of her skin made her little face pale.
But she didn't focus on herself at all.
Seeing that one of the monks had blood on his sleeve, she did not forget to hand him the only medicine.
"Ningning, how can I leave you here alone?"
"Since these people have been poisoned by your magic drug, let's run out together quickly."
The Queen Mother grabbed Deng Youning's arm and insisted on taking her away with her.
She is the person Qiong Yue loves the most.
I must take good care of my sister's granddaughter on behalf of my good sister.
"No, King Yi still has nearly a thousand men around here. Someone must stay behind to deal with them."
Deng Youning repeated what he had just said.
Her anxious and heavy tone made the Queen Mother feel very uncomfortable.
If she had agreed to stay in the temple for another night, she might not have met these Nanxin people.
"Princess, you take the Queen Mother and the Princess and go first, and the two of us will stay behind to cover your retreat," the monks suggested.
How could they let the princess take risks for them?
Deng Youning sighed helplessly. She really didn't dislike them for not being able to deal with those Nanxin people.
"Yi Wang's purpose is clear, and that is me."
"Only if I stay can you guarantee a smooth departure."
"Besides, the Queen Mother and the Princess can't walk anymore. I need you two to carry them on your backs and walk with Qinggong skills."
The speed with which the king could dispatch his troops was self-evident, and she was afraid that she would not be able to resist.
The sooner the Queen Mother and the others leave, the more relaxed I will be.
As they were talking, the sound of footsteps came from the depths of the forest.
Deng Youning realized that it must be King Yi's men who had arrived.
"Don't waste time, let's go!"
She urged everyone with an angry face.
Seeing that she was angry, the two monks said nothing more. They carried the Queen Mother and Jun Wenying on their backs and quickly escaped using light skills.
Looking at their receding backs, Deng Youning instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned around, like a wolf waiting to hunt, and waited quietly for those people to arrive with calm but murderous eyes.
The torches in the hands of the Nanxin people lit up the dark forest.
"Deng Youning, you didn't listen to my kind words of advice and insisted on forcing me to take real action!"
There was endless regret in Yi Wang's eyes, and a helpless sigh came from his mouth, as if he was feeling sorry for Deng Youning's lost opportunity.
In fact, he never really wanted Deng Youning to die from the beginning to the end.
He knew how his brother felt about her, and he had planned for them to fall off the cliff, and King Yi had already sent people to catch them at the bottom of the cliff.
He originally wanted to play the role of a hero and save the beauty, so that Deng Youning and the others would be grateful to him, and he could repay the favor in the future.
But unfortunately, this first plan was discovered by Deng Youning.
In his second plan, he simply asked Wuyuan to use the monks of Fahua Temple as a threat.
He knew that the princess, who loved her people like her own children, would not bear to see these monks die because of her, and thought that Wuyuan would be able to bring Deng Youning back with this.
But I didn't expect Wuyuan to be so unreliable. He ruined such a good opportunity.
He had no choice but to take action himself and start the third plan of "kill them directly if they can't be invited".
Soon, King Yi's men surrounded Deng Youning.
King Yi stayed behind the crowd vigilantly, not daring to approach Deng Youning.
Deng Youning looked around, found King Yi in the crowd, and stared at him intently.
She clenched the sword in her hand, and the tip of the sword lifted up the dirt on the ground and hit the eyes of the Nanxin people.
While they were confused, Deng Youning picked up his sword and rushed out to kill them.
The girl's black hair fluttered, and her sword dance was like a black phoenix flying in the sky. The sword energy emerged between the flowing clouds and water.
All the people in the row in front of her were stabbed in the throat by her sword, and blood spurted everywhere.
Her own cheeks were stained with a few drops of blood.
She casually wiped it with her sleeve, and her sword power was like waves hitting the shore, majestic and powerful, breaking through the wind, invincible.
King Yi's men also killed him.
Fight her without mercy.
Deng Youning was alone with only one sword, and she was exhausted both physically and mentally. The pain in her ankle had become numb.
She was fighting against thousands of people alone. Even if she was a top master, it would be difficult to survive among so many soldiers.
Gradually, Deng Youning seemed to want to give up resistance.
After being reborn, all her wishes were fulfilled, and her grandmother passed away again. She felt that if she died here today, she would be able to accompany her grandmother in the afterlife.
There's nothing to regret.
“Puff!”
She suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood.
A sharp sword stabbed into her abdomen from the front.
“Swish, swish, swish—”
There were countless knife cuts on his body.
The blood had already dyed her dress a light red.
She half-knelt on one knee on the ground, leaning on the sword with her hand, trying to support her body.
I really don't have the strength this time.
Maybe it wouldn't be bad to die like this.
At that moment, she seemed to see her deceased grandmother coming to take her away.
In front of her was a man in black holding a spear, running towards her.
All around her, there were sharp weapons aimed at her.
She slowly closed her eyes, as if waiting for her death.
"stop!"
Suddenly, King Yi in the crowd shouted.
"Try to leave some alive!" Although King Yi hated Deng Youning, he felt that she had suffered enough today and did not want to embarrass her anymore.
Those men in black put away their weapons.
Deng Youning also opened his eyes and stared at King Yi with disdain.
"Stay alive?"
She asked back sarcastically.
"Don't even think of using me as a tool to control Dongji!"
Since King Yi couldn't bear to kill her, she could only commit suicide.
She would rather die than be a hostage, and must not become a tool for Nan Xin to threaten Dongji.
We must not let their conspiracy succeed!
"Don't be impulsive. Put the sword down."
"Deng Youning, if you die like this, what will you do to Li Azhuo?"
Seeing Deng Youning raised the sword, King Yi became anxious as he really wanted to cut his throat.
