The sword dance was dazzling; before the bandits could even see where the person was, the cold blade slit their throats.
Ji Yong'an was panting heavily, his hand holding the red-tasseled spear trembling slightly. He didn't see Li Er's figure. "My lord, Li Er is gone."
"Hmm." Mingyue looked at Ji Yong'an calmly. "Can you still move?"
Ji Yong'an nodded vigorously, laughing wildly, his gaze towards Mingyue filled with admiration. "This is nothing. I never expected your swordsmanship to be so amazing, sir."
"Wait here, they'll come down."
She killed so many people, and she deliberately let Li Er leave to report her. Li Daqiang will not let this go so easily.
Ji Yong'an sat on the ground without any restraint, carrying a tree on his back, his whole body filthy, a stark contrast to the clean and pristine Mingyue standing to the side.
After resting for half an hour, the pebbles on the ground trembled slightly. Ji Yong'an stood up with a solemn expression, gripped his spear, and stood ready for battle.
"Who killed more than thirty of my brothers!"
Before you see him, you hear his voice.
The rough voice was transmitted through internal force, causing the surrounding trees to shake off their leaves.
Unexpectedly, a bandit leader possessed internal energy; this matter is now difficult to handle.
Ji Yong'an felt even heavier. He subconsciously looked at Mingyue and saw that Mingyue's expression hadn't changed at all. Only then did his tense mood ease slightly.
When Li Er appeared, he showed no sign of flattery whatsoever. Pointing at Mingyue, he shouted, "It's her, Your Majesty! These two people killed many of Your Majesty's brothers! They even said they would wipe out the bandits with just the two of them!"
Li Daqiang, strong and burly, looked in the direction Li Er pointed, panting heavily, his eyes wide with anger, "You're the one who killed Li San and the others?"
Mingyue: "Yes."
Li Daqiang narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Fine, fine, since you admit it, don't blame me for being impolite, brothers! Kill the men, break the legs and feet of the women, and treat the brothers well when we get back!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill! Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty is mighty! Your Majesty is wise!"
"Capture this woman and present her to the King!"
Almost no one paid any attention to Ji Yong'an, the bloodied man, let alone Ming Yue, the frail woman.
Li Daqiang watched his men charge forward one by one, a confident smile on his rough face.
With a slight movement of her eyes, Mingyue moved with the agility of a swallow, stopping one bandit after another.
Ji Yong'an didn't even have a chance to make a move; before anyone could get close to him, Mingyue killed him with a single blow.
Ji Yong'an smacked his lips, feeling a sense of powerlessness as if he were being forced to live off a woman.
Li Daqiang's expression also turned serious. He grabbed Li Er by the collar and held him up to his face. "You said there were only two people, so why didn't you mention that this woman's martial arts skills are so high?"
"I...I...I don't know, Your Majesty!"
He only knew that Mingyue could chop off people's heads as easily as chopping melons. He had already run away when Mingyue made her move. He never expected Mingyue to be so resilient.
"Get out of my way!"
Li Daqiang shoved Li Er aside, brandishing his broadsword with a fierce glint in his eyes. He swiftly flew to Mingyue, kicking up a cloud of dust. His eyes seemed to spit fire. "You little wench, I gave you a door but you wouldn't take it. You're more willing to brave the gates of hell!"
Seeing Li Daqiang make his move, Ji Yong'an walked to Mingyue's side with his spear, watching Li Daqiang warily. "Grand Preceptor, shall we attack together?"
Mingyue glanced at Ji Yong'an indifferently, "You think you can do it?"
Ji Yong'an's face darkened. "A man can't say no!" What misconception gave the adults that he was weak and incompetent?
