Mu Chenshuang lowered her eyes slightly, her gaze sharp as she stared at the man in black before her. "What makes you think this princess will go with you?"
The man in black said forcefully, "If the princess is unwilling to come with us, then we will have no choice but to take you away by force. If you hurt the princess, don't blame me for not warning you."
As the man in black spoke, he gripped his sword, ready to launch an attack.
Mu Chenshuang's lips curled into a cold, mocking smile. "Is that so? Then this princess would like to see just how capable you really are."
The words were spoken in an instant.
With lightning speed, he drew the shimmering, soft sword from his waist. The sword could extend, and like a snake, it whipped up a rain of flying rain and attacked the surrounding men in black.
Her attack was too fast and too precise; all that could be seen was a flash of light. The men in black standing around Linglong had no time to react and fell to the ground. The leader of the men in black glared and drew his sword to block Mu Chenshuang's attack, but was forced to retreat a few steps by the powerful sword energy.
Immediately afterwards.
Mu Chenshuang grabbed Linglong and leaped lightly.
"Walk!"
These men in black are nothing to fear, but there are too many variables in this mountain forest and on the slopes. There are too many variables, so we must go further. Moreover, Linglong is with us. Although Linglong has martial arts skills and can easily deal with ordinary people, she can only be captured by Jianghu assassins.
The men in black behind them were hot on their heels.
At the same time, launch a hidden weapon attack.
"Miss!"
Linglong exclaimed in surprise.
Mu Chenshuang immediately turned around, using her soft sword to block the attack, but was forced to stop and stand firmly on the ground.
The rain continued to fall.
Mu Chenshuang was soaked by the rain.
The men in black appeared in front of and behind the two, blocking their path.
Linglong leaned against Mu Chenshuang, watching the man in black in front of her warily, afraid that she would become a burden to her young mistress.
At the command of the man in black, everyone attacked Mu Chenshuang.
In an instant.
A chilling aura filled the air, and the rain carried a bone-chilling cold.
The men in black attacked simultaneously, but were forced to retreat in disarray, falling to the ground severely injured. Seeing that he could not harm Mu Chenshuang in the slightest, the leader of the men in black turned his attention to the maid beside her.
The leader of the men in black held Mu Chenshuang back, while another man in black took the opportunity to attack Linglong.
When Mu Chenshuang realized their intentions and turned around, the man in black was only half a meter away from Linglong.
"Linglong, squat down!" Mu Chenshuang shouted.
Linglong hurriedly squatted down in a panic.
Immediately afterward, with a whoosh, a silver needle shot out from Mu Chenshuang's sleeve, striking the black-clad man's vital point and killing him instantly.
But the moment Mu Chenshuang made her move, the leader of the men in black seized the opportunity and launched a full-force attack. Mu Chenshuang turned around to block the attack, but her arm was still cut by his sword energy.
Mu Chenshuang's brows furrowed, and she kicked the man away. Her powerful internal force sent him flying several meters away, leaving him seriously injured.
Mu Chenshuang swung her longsword.
In an instant.
The remaining three men in black were all dealt with, leaving only the leader kneeling on the ground, still panting.
Mu Chenshuang stepped forward, sword in hand, her cold eyes fixed on the kneeling man in black. She said coldly, "You are a Dark Night Assassin. Who sent you?"
The man in black lowered his head, panting, and remained silent.
"You're not going to tell me?"
Mu Chenshuang's cold voice was piercing and chilling. She gathered her inner strength in one hand, her gaze sharp as a blade, "Even the dead have to talk to me."
Just as she was about to make her move.
Sudden.
Countless hidden weapons, imbued with a bloodthirsty killing intent, attacked Mu Chenshuang.
Mu Chenshuang swung her soft sword, swirling the incoming hidden weapons and returning them all to their original positions. As if receiving a command, the hidden weapon instantly transformed into a golden flower, slowly falling into a slender hand that emerged from the darkness.
Even though they are so far apart.
Mu Chenshuang could sense the cold and malevolent aura emanating from the newcomer; this person was no ordinary individual.
Suddenly.
A muffled thud rang out. The assassin, who had been kneeling on the ground, was killed instantly by a hidden weapon. Mu Chenshuang's pupils dilated as she looked at the man in black lying in a pool of blood.
Then a seductive yet icy voice slowly rang out, "The female general of Tianzhao Kingdom is indeed no ordinary person."
Mu Chenshuang frowned and stared intently at the woman who slowly emerged from the forest. She wore a thin purple gauze dress, her face was veiled, she held an umbrella in one hand and played with a golden flower in the other. She exuded a gentle and charming aura, and her eyes were alluring, like a deadly poppy.
"The Dark Night Assassins are so ruthless that they even kill their own fellow disciples," Mu Chenshuang sneered.
The woman lightly brushed a strand of hair from the side of her face and said indifferently, "What's the use of keeping it if the mission failed?" Then, her gaze fell on the sword in Mu Chenshuang's hand. "I really like the sword in your hand. I want it."
Mu Chenshuang chuckled coldly, "Is that so? Then let's see if you have the life to take it."
A cold smile curled at the corner of the woman's lips. Just as she was gathering her strength, she suddenly sensed a familiar oppressive aura. Her expression darkened, and she instantly withdrew her power, looking at Mu Chenshuang and saying, "We will meet again!"
After saying that...
The woman vanished into the jungle in an instant.
