Chapter 72: A Pitiful Victory



This roar didn't matter, the men in black attacked even more fiercely.

I had originally held back, thinking that they were just a bunch of mediocre soldiers and could be easily dealt with.

But it’s different now. If someone recognizes our identity and escapes, it will be a disaster.

When the exiled prisoners heard the name "Sixth Prince", they subconsciously panicked.

But I soon realized that there were only two outcomes to today's fight: you die, or I die.

Chi Xingyue didn't expect that the one who attacked them was the Sixth Prince, with whom they had no connection.

But now is not the time to hesitate, he took out a dagger from his sleeve and handed it to Ling Weicheng.

He took one for himself and looked forward eagerly.

Ling Weiyuan and Ling Weicun had already prepared weapons with them after learning from the lesson of being bitten by wolves last time.

Although it is just a wooden stick, it can be used as a weapon if the head is sharpened.

Ling Jiren, Ling Jiyi, and Ling Jihao took out large ladles, shovels, and kitchen knives and stood in front of the women to protect them.

He was extremely grateful for having stolen something from the post station.

Seeing this, Chi Xingyue handed the dagger to Shu Muyun. He dug out a fire stick from the crack of the cart and planned to stab him to death!

The men in black attacked anyone they saw, regardless of gender, age or strength. Several children of the Ling family were hidden under the car and were terrified.

Other families were so busy escaping that they inevitably forgot, or selectively sacrificed, women, the elderly, and children.

Although a group of strong men were resisting, their mortal bodies could not withstand the long sword.

Wan Chunqin was originally protecting Ling Minghao, but Gu Youlian, who was afraid of death, pushed her away and almost pushed him into the enemy's knife.

It was Chi Xingyue who saw it and subconsciously threw a piece of silver, which hit the man's wrist and deflected the tip of the knife a little. Wan Chunqin was only slightly injured.

Seeing this, Ling Jiren's eyes turned red. He swung the ladle and hit the other person's nose with it.

The man was knocked dizzy, and Ling Jiyi took the opportunity to hit the man's tendons with a shovel.

The man in black subconsciously let go, and Wan Chunqin immediately pounced on him, snatched the knife from his hand, and chopped off ten of his toes.

The miserable cry made Gu Youlian, the culprit, shudder.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Wan Chunqin gradually became filled with fear.

Wan Chunqin's body was stained with blood, but she stood beside the man in black like a female demon.

He raised his hand and slashed his chest with the knife.

The man in black was killed instantly, and Gu Youlian also urinated, which made Geng Suhua look down on her.

I didn't expect that the daughter-in-law I carefully selected for the eldest brother was not only stupid but also vicious. I should have sent her back to her parents' home.

The thought only lasted a moment. When the men in black saw their companions being killed, they gathered around and prepared to take revenge.

The men of the Ling family were caught in a dilemma. Geng Suhua was so scared that she lost her voice and could not move.

Ling Weiyuan raised his leg and kicked the man onto the cart, causing him to hit his head and get a big bump.

But Geng Suhua was not angry at all. She was extremely grateful to her husband for saving her from the dire situation.

Seeing Ling Weiyuan being hacked by someone, Geng Suhua's eyes turned red. She reached out to tear off the seal, picked up a stone and smashed the lock on the box. After a while, the lock opened.

She untied the rope, opened the box, and looked at the white silver inside without a trace of greed.

Geng Suhua held a silver ingot in his left hand and another in his right hand. He shouted, "Get out of the way!" and smashed towards the man in black.

The scene was quite chaotic for a while. Seeing this, the jailer of Jiangning Prefecture took the opportunity to take three lives.

"Thank you!" Geng Suhua choked up.

The first wife's life was in chaos, and the second wife's life was not easy either.

Ling Jiheng knew very well that this was not a family matter, and if one of them was not handled properly, the entire army would be wiped out.

So he followed Gao Hongbin, hacking and killing the leader while keeping an eye on Chi Xingyue.

Once she, Shu Muyun, or Ling Weicheng were in trouble, he would throw the dagger out to buy them time to fight back.

Ling Jiheng had a good idea, but Chi Xingyue didn't play by the rules.

Before the man in black got close, she sprinkled a handful of wood ash on him, and when he dodged or was dazzled, she poked the fire poker into the bull's eye.

That sensitive and fragile part would be broken if it wasn't poked like that.

The man in black bent over like a shrimp in pain, and seeing this, no one dared to step forward to provoke him.

Ling Weicheng took the opportunity to kill the other party, and after seizing the weapons, he upgraded them to other weapons.

Looking up, he found that the old man and the old woman had twisted their ankles while dodging, and quickly asked someone to come over: "It's so late, and you're still taking care of things. If we work together, we can kill a few more men in black."

It was a well-intentioned reminder, but it stirred up a hornet's nest.

Men in black came in groups, and Chi Xingyue could hardly spread the ashes.

What she was even more afraid of was that others would ask her how she hid so much wood ash!

Just as he was about to poke the fire poker into someone's heart, a chill came from behind.

"Squat down!" Chi Xingyue heard Ling Jiheng's voice and obeyed subconsciously. Then, a cold light brushed past her hair.

Chi Xingyue was shocked and turned around to see that the person was already dead.

Ling Jiheng ran over from a distance and stabbed the man's back with a dagger.

He was sweating profusely and asked with concern: "Are you okay?"

Chi Xingyue quickly shook her head: "It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine!"

He was so careless that he didn't even realize that he had just walked through the gates of hell.

He caught a glimpse of someone approaching and raised his hand to hit him with a stick.

After knocking the man to the ground, he thought Ling Weicheng would come up to finish him off, but Shu Muyun stabbed the man in the neck twice in anger: "I'll let you bully my daughter-in-law, I'll let you bully my daughter-in-law!"

That crazy look scared Chi Xingyue. He quickly reminded her, "Mom, I'm fine!"

Shu Muyun raised his hand to wipe away his tears, but found that his hands were covered in blood and his face was even more bloody.

But her heart was more at peace than ever before, and she smiled and said, "Mother knows, Mother is..."

I just didn't have the courage to take action just now, which almost caused you to get into trouble. I feel guilty.

Chi Xingyue didn't know what she was thinking. He nodded and became alert again.

This matter cannot be resolved peacefully today. All the men in black must die on the road, and no one can be left alive.

Chi Xingyue thought so, but the reality did not seem to allow it.

Although there were a large number of exiled prisoners, the men in black all had kung fu skills. They fought back and forth, and both sides suffered casualties, and the scene was in a stalemate.

As the fight went on, they were exhausted, but no one dared to admit defeat or retreat.

Just when a group of people forgot about life and death and were ready to die together, two ragged beggars appeared from a distance, and started to chop the men in black as soon as they saw them. Their movements were so skillful, almost like cutting a melon.

Before Gao Hongbin could react to who the two men were, the melee was over.

The two of them retired after achieving their goal, leaving behind a mess.

Gao Hongbin covered his wound and sat on the ground for a long time before sending someone to count the number of people.

Thirteen sword-carrying guards were killed and twenty-five were injured.

One jailer in Jiangning Prefecture died and nine were injured.

Forty-five exiled prisoners died and one hundred and twelve were injured.

Eighty-nine men in black died.

The sword-wielding guards and the exiled prisoners won a tragic victory.
