Seeing this, Lin Changhe immediately became furious. "These bastards are already in this state, yet they still want to take advantage of the chaos. Brother Wang, why don't we attack them from both sides and capture them all?"
Wang Wu nodded and said, "Since Lord Lin has already said so, even if these people had wings, they wouldn't be able to escape from here today."
The two men didn't have many people with them, but the bandits below who were robbing them probably numbered around one or two hundred.
Wang Wu was completely confident in his own strength, while Lin Changhe didn't take these people seriously at all. The two of them together could be considered a pair of brutes.
Lin Changhe quickly glided his snowboard, drawing his long sword at his waist, while his personal guards followed him like hungry wolves.
At this moment, the bandits who were burning, killing, and looting in the village were completely unaware that the scythe of death was already placed on their necks.
Wang Wu and his group, being more skilled with skis and extremely fast, chose to flank the group and completely surround them in the village.
Unlike Lin Changhe and his group, who appeared aggressive, Wang Wu and his group seemed to be completely silent the moment they realized a battle was about to begin.
Apart from the sound of the wind and snow blowing past their ears, Wang Wu and his men would not make any noise, and they had already quietly acquired crossbows and horizontal swords in their hands.
After arriving at the village at top speed, Lin Changhe roared, "A bunch of scum, how dare you take advantage of this disaster to loot! You're all tired of living!"
The snow was stained with countless drops of blood, and the entire village was already in ruins. Only when they discovered the arrival of Lin Changhe and his men did these bandits choose not to run away, after all, Lin Changhe only had a dozen or so men.
Given the current weather, it was even less likely that Lin Changhe and his men would be wearing armor, so the bandits had no idea that Lin Changhe and his group were actually soldiers.
Seeing that these people still dared to rush up, Lin Changhe lost his temper and took the lead. In just one exchange, he killed one of the bandits.
Although the other bandits hesitated for a moment, they all rushed forward the next second, and more than fifty bandits instantly engaged Lin Changhe and his men in battle.
Without the protection of his armor, Lin Changhe had to be more careful, but with his skills, dealing with these lowlifes was still a piece of cake.
The guards around him were all handpicked, and each of them was highly skilled. So, although the dozen or so men were a bit chaotic, they were still able to keep the bandits under control.
Wang Wu, who had sneaked in from behind, was now reaping the lives of these bandits with incredibly precise long-range attacks.
Each crossbow shot could easily take a life; the incredibly accurate long-range attacks meant that the bandits could barely get close, and could only die in silent resentment.
Even if a few lucky ones manage to rush up, they will be easily dealt with. Each horizontal blade can precisely target the weakest point on a person's body and deliver a single blow to end their life.
After delivering a fatal blow, Wang Wu and his men would quickly pinpoint the location of every bandit in the searched village, ensuring that no one escaped.
Moreover, these bandits couldn't possibly hide their whereabouts at all; after all, wherever the loudest wails were, something must have happened.
In just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, Lin Changhe had already ended the battle. None of the fifty-odd people were able to escape, and those around Lin Changhe were all slightly injured or more or less.
However, Lin Changhe didn't care about these minor injuries. Instead, they made him feel a long-lost surge of energy. Sure enough, his body needed to be moved around, otherwise he wouldn't even know if it became stiff one day.
It was only at this moment that Lin Changhe realized that Wang Wu had promised to attack him from both sides. Why hadn't he seen him yet?
Filled with doubt, Lin Changhe began to walk towards the village. It was at this moment that he realized that it wasn't that Wang Wu and the others hadn't made a move, but rather that they seemed to have received the battle earlier.
Looking at the men Wang Wu brought, they were completely unharmed, with hardly any blood on them.
If Lin Changhe was only interested in Ning Ye's training methods before, now he must be extremely eager to know how it was done.
Lin Changhe patted Wang Wu on the shoulder and said, "Brother Wang, you're being too polite. You didn't even show us how you fight. But it seems these people are no problem for you at all."
Wang Wu chuckled and said, "Has Lord Lin forgotten? We've dealt with these bandits before, so we're quite familiar with them. Lord Lin should only deal with the truly arrogant and fierce ones; he can't do what we're used to."
"You must have been staying with your young master for too long. Your way of speaking is exactly the same as his. I really don't know what to say about you two."
"Hey, Lord Lin, don't be angry. I just found a very interesting item on these people. I just don't know if you recognize it."
Lin Changhe looked at the things in Wang Wu's hands with a somewhat confused expression. He had thought these people were just simple bandits, but now it seemed that they were likely sent by wealthy families in Qingyuan County to rob people.
After all, this token belongs to the Chen family in Qingyuan County. The Chen family is known for its good reputation and has always been seen as a kind-hearted family. How could they do such a thing?
Could this be what they mean by the unpredictability of human nature, or the inability to look directly at people's hearts?
"I will handle this matter when I get back. Don't worry, I will definitely not ignore it and let it pass."
Wang Wu said, "Lord Lin, I think what happened today is quite normal. After all, people are greedy, and sometimes many people can't control themselves. Even if something like this happens, it's understandable. It's just that someone should take charge."
Lin Changhe nodded and said, "You're right. Someone should take charge and manage this, instead of letting it continue while everyone turns a deaf ear."
As Lin Changhe counted the remaining villagers, his anger towards them deepened, because half of the villagers were already dead.
They were only after money, so why did they make things like this?
These guys are probably killing for fun.
