She, needless to say, is Zheng Quchi.
The Crimson Blood Army had never seen Sima gaze at a woman with such stubborn and demanding eyes. For the first twenty-odd years of his life, he had devoted himself to the study of ingenuity and was ignorant of the feelings between men and women. But once he fell in love, it almost cost him his life and plunged him into the most wicked and vicious curse in the world—unrequited love.
As for the people in front of Zheng Quchi, there were quite a few, but one of them stood out.
He almost forgot about himself, focusing all his efforts on protecting Zheng Quchi behind him. At the same time, he was also the bravest, deflecting arrows several times with his spear. His skill and reflexes were truly extraordinary.
The Crimson Blood Army stopped their wide-range shooting and began to consciously direct their attacks towards Zheng Quchi's direction.
Zheng Quchi sensed something was wrong and grabbed Liu Chaiji, only to see Mo Ye's gaze darken as he stared at the hand holding Liu Chaiji: "Zheng Quchi, my patience is limited. You'd better know what to do when I kill the last person around you."
What is he going to do?
Before Zheng Quchi could react, the Crimson Blood Army had already turned around and launched a simultaneous attack on Liu Chaiji. The others rushed forward to block the attack, but the concentrated offensive overwhelmed them, and many fell to the ground after being hit by hidden weapons.
Zheng Quchi trembled all over, clearly understanding that these people had sacrificed themselves for her.
If casualties were unavoidable on the battlefield before, what about now?
Mo Ye was so wicked that he used these people's lives to force her to submit.
She abruptly raised her head. Liu Chaiji's arms were already weak, and his parrying speed was getting slower and slower. One hidden weapon grazed his arm, and another was about to pierce his heart when Zheng Quchi rushed forward and blocked it without hesitation—
Blood spurted out, instantly turning Liu Chaiji's eyes red.
"Lieutenant Zheng..." he exclaimed.
Zheng Quchi's lips turned deathly pale; he had never imagined that such a hidden weapon could cause such pain when it entered his body.
The pain was so intense that even breathing felt like an unbearable ordeal.
Upon seeing that she had been hit by the Crimson Blood, Mo Ye's expression changed drastically, and he immediately raised his arm to stop the shooting.
"Are you out of your mind?!" he roared.
Zheng Quchi gritted his teeth, enduring the excruciating pain, and quickly pulled out a crossbow loaded with good arrows. Without even taking a second to aim, he shot at Mo Ye.
Although the arrow was swift and fast, making it difficult for an ordinary person to dodge, Mo Ye had been tricked like this once before, so he naturally became wary of Zheng Quchi, who was skilled in long-range crossbow shooting. Therefore, he took action when she made any unusual movements.
But clearly, he underestimated her strength and did not escape unscathed.
A burning sensation ran down his face, accompanied by a sticky liquid. Mo Ye wiped it away, looked at the blood on his hand, tilted his head as if he couldn't understand, and said, "Why... why are you so disobedient?"
It seems the lesson wasn't taught enough.
