Chapter 339 Fighting in the Dark Night
Lin Pianran pointed in the direction of Jingzhao Mansion and said to the secret guards, "This princess just rescued thirty or forty people from Prince Jing's Mansion. They were the ones Princess Wenjia had captured and taken to the basement to test poisons."
"This princess has asked them to go to Jingzhao Prefecture to report the case. Half of you should go there to protect their safety and make sure they don't get caught again."
"The other half will stay near Prince Jing's mansion and keep a close eye on everything that happens there. If there's any news, report it to this princess immediately."
"Yes, miss."
Everyone agreed in unison, then split into two groups and began to act.
After arranging everything, Lin Pianran rushed towards the Duke of Protectorate's Mansion.
She was like a ghost in the dark night, disappearing in a flash.
*****
At this time, Baili Qingyun, who had just come out of the underground auction house, was suddenly chased by twenty or thirty black-clothed masters.
The moonlight was dim, and dozens of figures were moving quickly through the woods, scaring the birds in the woods and making them fly away in all directions.
Baili Qingyun never thought that there would be a day when he would be hunted by someone.
These people are so bold and ignorant of the consequences.
His Qinggong was used to the extreme, his footsteps were light as he shuttled through the woods, each step revealed his calmness, and he easily dodged the hidden weapons shot from behind.
Faced with this sudden crisis, Baili Qingyun remained calm, without the slightest sign of panic. Instead, an inexplicable excitement rose in his heart.
The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the weather is just right, perfect for killing someone.
It’s been a long time since I had such a satisfying battle, I’m really looking forward to it!
After he led the man in black to an open place, he slowly stopped, his posture upright, like a pine tree, proud of the world, standing calmly in the center, waiting for the man in black to approach step by step, his eyes revealing a calmness that no one could match.
It is still unknown who killed whom!
In Baili Qingyun's eyes, there was a blazing light, like a hunter staring at his prey.
When the men in black approached and saw Baili Qingyun holding a golden axe in both hands, their faces turned extremely ugly.
They only saw Baili Qingyun carrying a metal medicine box, and thought that it must contain medicine and some instruments, but they did not expect that his golden axe was also in it.
At this time, he placed the medicine box on the ground not far away.
The two secret guards who were protecting Baili Qingyun closely were standing on the left and right, holding their weapons and ready for battle.
Baili Qingyun declared war calmly and fearlessly in that low and magnetic voice.
"Come on! All of you come at me together! My golden axe hasn't drunk blood in a long time, and it's thirsty!"
Every word and sentence is full of provocation.
Those men in black were looked down upon in such a way that they all sneered. Even if Baili Qingyun was a martial arts master and his weapon was indestructible, so what?
They were numerous and had the upper hand.
With so many people surrounding just three people, are they still worried that they can't capture them alive?
Otherwise, they would have no place to stand in the world long ago.
The men in black quickly formed an encirclement formation, holding weapons that flashed with cold light, and rushed towards Baili Qingyun, trying to subdue him with their numerical advantage.
Facing this surging attack, Baili Qingyun remained calm and waved his hand lightly.
In an instant, several silver needles as thin as gossamer shot out from between his fingers, like meteors across the night sky, accurately shooting towards the crowd of men in black.
With one move, he injured several men in black.
Wherever the silver needle passed, there were a few subtle but clear muffled sounds, and several men in black fell down with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Baili Qingyun's move showed his extraordinary martial arts attainments, which frightened all the men in black present.
When the other men in black rushed forward, they were blocked by the two secret guards and started fighting with them.
As soon as the two sides started fighting, they fought extremely fiercely and it was difficult to tell who was better.
Baili Qingyun brandished the golden double axes. His movements were as fast as lightning. While leaping and moving, he even chopped off the heads of two men in black.
He also took the opportunity to destroy the weapons of the two men in black.
The weapons of those men in black were simply vulnerable. After colliding with his golden axe more than ten times in a row, they would break into several pieces.
However, in a matter of moments, the tide of battle took a dramatic turn. The men in black, initially aggressive, were easily defeated by the combined attack of Baili Qingyun and his two companions, like fallen leaves swept away by an autumn wind.
Their figures kept falling down, unable to get up and fight again.
What was even more astonishing was that the sharp weapons of these men in black were like fragile porcelain, broken one after another and scattered all over the ground in the brief confrontation with Baili Qingyun, and could no longer exert their due power.
The leader of the men in black looked at Baili Qingyun's axe in disbelief.
One of his arms was also cut off, and blood was gushing out from the broken part.
He asked in disbelief, "How could your weapon be so powerful? Impossible! This is absolutely impossible... How could such a powerful weapon exist in the world?"
Baili Qingyun still maintained that nonchalant attitude, with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth.
"How is it impossible? This is a divine weapon of mine. How can it be compared with your ordinary weapons?"
"All of you, just prepare to die!"
There was a hint of teasing in his voice, but also an unquestionable determination.
The face of the leader in black was ashen. Now all their weapons were damaged. Wouldn't they be at the mercy of others and be chased and killed by these three masters and servants?
They originally came here to kill someone, but they didn't expect to be chased and killed by others in the end.
This is such a shameful humiliation and extremely ironic!
The leader of the men in black had a flicker of reluctance and struggle in his eyes, and he finally spoke, with a hint of pleading in his voice.
"If I tell you who is behind this, will you let us go?"
They and Huo Li were only in an employment relationship, so there was no need for them to risk their lives for their employer.
Baili Qingyun was actually very curious about who was secretly plotting against him.
So he raised his eyebrows and retracted the two golden axes that were pointed at the man in black, ready to attack at any time.
"Alright! Tell me who's behind this. If you tell the truth, I can consider sparing your lives."
The leader of the men in black was as pale as paper at this moment, because of excessive bleeding and pain.
He endured the pain and clenched his teeth, as if every word he uttered was a great test of his will.
"It was Huo Li. She asked us to capture you and told us to try to catch you alive. If that didn't work, you could be killed as well."
