Chapter 483 Northern Territory (7)
The wolf pack surrounded them.
in all directions.
Mo Lang also joined the battle.
He and Ling Xiao stood back to back, and the panic and rage he had felt all night finally found an outlet.
"Ling Xiao, let me see just how capable you really are today."
"Sir, shall we have a contest?"
Since becoming a prisoner, Ling Xiao has been unable to use his skills. He has been subjected to insults and beatings by a petty overseer, and he has long been feeling extremely aggrieved.
At this moment, I wish I could use all my strength to experience another exhilarating slaughter.
"Come!"
The two men simultaneously brandished their swords, facing the onrushing wolf pack, their blades flashing as they engaged in a fierce battle.
Every flash of light is followed by a bloodbath.
The howls of beasts and the roars of humans blended into a cruel symphony.
One head, two heads, three heads...
The blade curled up and got stuck in the wolf's ribs.
The wolf's fangs tore and bit into the man's arm.
Ten heads, fifteen heads, twenty heads...
"Ling Xiao! I admit, you truly deserve the title of Commander of the Guards!"
"I admire you, sir!"
Ling Xiao shook the blood streaming down his face like a stream, ignoring the laceration on his shoulder, and continued killing.
The three people in the tree were biting their hands and crying.
"Mo Lang, Mo Lang, I still have some sleeping potion left—" Qing Yao cried out.
Don't even mention sleeping pills, he hates that stuff the most!
"The wind is too strong, it's not suitable to sprinkle water, you stay put!" Mo Lang shouted.
His leg was bitten by a wolf again, so he turned around and chopped off the wolf's head with a knife.
Under the relentless attacks of the two, the wolf pack finally became fearful and temporarily halted their assault.
Far away, atop the mountain peaks, came the howling of wolves, echoing through layers of mountains.
The wolves bowed their heads, as if obeying some kind of command.
After the howling stopped, the wolf pack retreated little by little.
Mo Lang and Ling Xiao dared not relax for a moment, their eyes warily scanning their surroundings.
Suddenly, a gasp came from behind.
The two turned around abruptly and saw a particularly large wolf suddenly appear under the big tree!
No, that's not a tall wolf, it's three wolves stacked together, the top one trying to leap up and grab the person above!
cunning!
Mo Lang threw his knife and shot the wolf on top of him dead.
The moment the knife left his hand, the retreating wolves instantly launched a counterattack!
He kicked one head away, then grabbed the other and slammed it to the ground.
This was the wolf pack's second attack, and it was even more ferocious than the first!
Lingxiao's sword broke.
They also began fighting bare-handed.
Both of them were soon covered in injuries.
The three people in the tree dared not make a sound. Even though the cunning wolf piled up again, and Wen Qingyu dragged Qingyao up to climb, the branches above were too thin to support the three of them.
Shen Jingshu was also exhausted. She had lost too much blood, and her mind was spinning. She could barely hold onto the tree trunk.
"Gu Chengye... come quick, come quick!"
Perhaps hearing Wen Qingyu's prayer, several more guards rushed over.
...
In another part of the forest, a similar killing was taking place.
A dozen or so Northern Di people were surrounded and fought like cornered beasts, grabbing unarmed civilians.
"Gu Chengye, Gu Chengye, your wife is in our hands, let us go!"
Suddenly, there was a noise overhead.
Unbeknownst to them, someone had silently crept up the tree and was now swooping down with a sword, aiming it at their heads...
Gu Chengye shot and killed their leader with an arrow.
The people got up from the ground and ran behind the soldiers.
The Northern Barbarians opened their eyes wide, barely clinging to life.
"Your wife...you..."
Another wolf howl.
Having spent most of his time in the northern border region, how could Gu Chengye not recognize the difference in the wolf howls?
His face became even more terrifying, like a bloodthirsty demon!
"If anything happens to my wife, I will raze your Northern Barbarians to the ground!"
"Since you want cannons so much, I'll show you what they're made of."
He threw a black ball at them.
"Boom—"
...
"Boom—"
It was as if the mountains and forests were trembling.
The werewolves, who were locked in fierce combat, were both startled.
Clearly, wolves feel this more deeply than humans.
For animals that crawl on all fours, the tremors of the earth felt like the sky had fallen and the earth had caved in.
The wolf pack was thrown into disarray.
The distant howl of wolves rang out again, this time short and urgent.
Then, the wolves scattered.
Only dozens of wolf carcasses remained lying on the ground.
There were also three guards.
Mo Lang and Ling Xiao collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted.
The sky is full of twinkling stars, and the moon is so round.
...
"Jing Shu, Jing Shu, hold on... I'm going down to get you now," Wen Qingyu called out anxiously.
"Who is she calling?" Ling Xiao jolted awake, his dazed mind clearing up a bit.
"Chen Jingshu, the legitimate daughter of Prime Minister Shen."
A moment of silence.
Ling Xiao jumped up immediately.
Mo Lang also jumped up.
If you don't get up now, you really won't be able to get up at all!
The two of them ran together towards the big tree.
A flurry of footsteps echoed through the woods.
"Madam—Qingyu—"
"My husband!"
Gu Chengye, covered in blood, rushed over and hugged the person.
"lady……"
His tall body trembled, as if he were holding a lost treasure that he had regained.
Mo Lang carefully embraced Qing Yao.
Ling Xiao... also embraced the nearly unconscious Shen Jing Shu.
"go back!"
Gu Chengye gave Ling Xiao a deep look and gave a hoarse command.
...
Three days later, Mo Lang left the Northern Border with Qing Yao.
On the carriage, the usually taciturn man began to comfort people.
"The doctor said the burning in my eyes wasn't serious and there's a possibility of recovery."
"Once we find our master, she will definitely heal you."
"Would you like some water? I added honey."
"Princess?"
Qingyao looked at Molang through a gauze covering her eyes, and could vaguely see a dark mass.
It was slightly darker than the surrounding area.
"Could you please wear something brighter? You're all dressed in black, I can't tell the difference."
"Okay, can I change into a blue one?"
Qingyao nodded.
Upon arriving at the next town, Mo Lang bought a blue outfit and changed into it.
It's strange, but it doesn't matter.
He is very obedient now and always tries to talk to her, but Qingyao still seems unhappy and hasn't smiled at all.
"Princess, you will really get better. You must trust your master's medical skills."
"I know."
“Princess…I have been disrespectful to you. I will apologize to my master and the Emperor as soon as I return.”
"No, I don't need you to take responsibility. This princess doesn't need anyone's pity."
The carriage stopped by the roadside.
Mo Lang climbed into the carriage and knelt in front of Qing Yao.
Qingyao smelled the masculine scent unique to men, as well as the smell of medicine and blood.
She reached out and placed her hands on his legs, arms, and chest.
They were all wrapped in thick cloth.
My heart is hurting terribly.
"It's not about being pitiful."
"Princess, I love you."
“If my master punishes me, I will accept it; if the emperor orders my death, I will beg him to give me a chance to take care of you for the rest of my life.”
Qingyao looked up at him, her slightly pale lips parted slightly.
Has he finally realized he should fight for it?
"Then I'll have to test whether you can handle it. Was it the sleeping potion that day, or... huh!"
The hand extends quickly and retracts quickly.
Mo Lang: "!!!!!!!!!"
Stiffened into a stone sculpture.
Qingyao lowered her head: "It's...okay."
"You filthy scoundrel!"
