Lin Ru sneered, "Since you say so, then I'll make sure you don't leave alive!"
"Don't think that just because you're a former captain, you can turn all the soldiers into your private army!"
"Everyone knows what kind of person Prince Shun is!"
"If they had any sense of judgment at all, they wouldn't have betrayed their homeland with you!"
"Oh! By the way! Wasn't it your idea to have Prince Shun besiege the city without attacking?"
"You seem to know that prefect quite well. You know he won't let those refugees in, so you had Prince Shun put pressure on them, making them your pawns! That way you can reap the benefits without lifting a finger!"
"As expected of the Commandant of the Prefecture! What a brilliant plan!"
Qi Fang smiled and said, "No matter how well I planned, you still managed to figure it out!"
"And now all my men are on your side!"
"You've really impressed me!"
Lin Ru: "Since you've already admitted it, then let's not say any more!"
"Wu Ling! Get ready..."
The men behind Wu Ling immediately drew their swords, the tips of which were pointed directly at Commandant Qi and the others!
The men behind Commandant Qi also drew their swords!
The two sides stood facing each other, ready to fight at any moment!
At this moment, Ma Minghao and the others still looked at Qi Fang with disbelief!
Their faces were filled with pain and inner turmoil!
"Father! Commandant! Is what she said true? Have you really already joined Prince Shun?"
"Was it really your idea to use refugees as pawns?"
What exactly happened to you outside?
"Where are your brothers who went out with you?"
Is there something troubling you?
Qi Fang listened to what Ma Minghao and the others said and shook his head in great disappointment!
"You lot have really disappointed me!"
"I originally thought you were the ones who opened the city gates! I never expected it was a young girl!"
Lin Ru was unwilling to listen to their nonsense anymore and only wanted to finish the battle quickly!
So she waved her hand and ordered these people to activate the trap she had set up earlier!
She and Wu Ling went to capture the leader first!
She wanted to see what this Commandant Qi was up to when he came back!
When Ma Minghao and the others tried to stop them again, it was too late. After all, Lin Ru was right. They and their families were all on this land. Even if they followed Commandant Qi to join Prince Shun, according to their previous practices, their families probably wouldn't survive!
So no matter who this person is, even if he was a former captain, they will not allow him to destroy their home!
To Lin Ru's utter surprise, Qi Duwei actually pointed a knife at her!
That sounded like he wanted to fight her one-on-one!
Lin Ru was naturally not intimidated! She charged forward with her knife in hand!
Qi Fang, wielding his knife, swung it horizontally at her. She quickly ducked to avoid the blow, feeling the sharp blade sweep across her face! The force was so great that it snapped the tree behind her in half!
Wu Ling rushed over to offer his help!
But Lin Ru raised her hand to stop her: "Don't come any closer!"
This is the perfect opportunity for her to establish her authority!
Although Commandant Qi's strike was incredibly powerful, with the force to sweep away an entire army, she could sense that he had suffered severe internal injuries and was only barely holding on to fight her!
Although she couldn't match him in strength, Qi Duwei was no match for her in agility!
Although she could wear down her opponent until their internal injuries flared up, she didn't intend to do so!
She always felt that this Commandant Qi was a bit strange; everything he did seemed to have a purpose!
Moreover, ever since I met her and learned that she was the one who came up with many ideas and that she was the one who let the refugees in, I've felt a bit strange, as if she's deliberately targeting me!
Or perhaps it's a test!
Regardless of what it is, based on those people's assessment of Commandant Qi, he is a worthy opponent!
After Lin Ru dodged the attack, she used her lightness skill to leap and slash at Qi Duwei. Just as he raised his hand to block, Lin Ru immediately landed and attacked his lower body!
Qi Duwei was also a veteran who had been through many battles. He quickly turned to the side to block and then retreated rapidly!
Using her agility, Lin Ru quickly moved to his left and delivered a vicious slash!
Commander Qi thought he was just making a feint again, and just as he was about to withdraw his hand to defend, Lin Ru's knife came down in a real strike!
He tried his best to defend himself, but he didn't expect the little girl to be so strong. The blow caused his internal injuries to relapse!
The wounds on her body were also ruptured by the shock. Lin Ru gathered all her internal energy into her arm and pressed it down hard!
Commander Qi was immediately forced to kneel on one knee, struggling to defend himself!
Seeing his reaction, Lin Ru drew her sword and slashed again. Qi Duwei, whose old wounds had flared up, struggled to defend against the attack.
This is truly a case of one wrong move leading to the complete downfall!
After about three or four more moves, Lin Ru's knife was finally pressed against Qi Duwei's neck!
He did not show any fear of death, but instead had a look of peace on his face!
The group of people behind Commander Qi were also subdued. Seeing that someone as powerful as Commander Qi was defeated by a little girl, they felt even more awe for these people!
They couldn't quite imagine whether they could survive being enemies with such a group of people.
However, even if they don't die at the hands of these people, they will die at the hands of Prince Shun!
Either way, they're going to die. If they die at the hands of these people, they might at least have a whole body left. But if they die at the hands of Prince Shun, their bodies might end up in the belly of some dog!
Thinking of this, I felt incredibly desolate! Suddenly, I felt a pang of envy for the enemies standing before me!
When Ma Minghao and the others saw their godfather being beaten by a little girl, and even having a long knife held to his throat, they couldn't describe the feeling in their hearts!
But considering the possibility of adoption, I'm still prepared to plead for him!
But before they could even plead for mercy!
Lin Ru was the first to sheathe her knife!
Wu Ling wanted to stop her, but remembering what Lin Ru had said before—that she shouldn't question any of her decisions when they were outside—he swallowed his words of protest.
Commander Qi was filled with admiration for Lin Ru's actions and was extremely glad that he had made the right choice in her!
They did not look down on her just because she was a woman!
This might be the best decision he's ever made in his life!
He coughed lightly twice, "You little girl are quite something! I guess I'm getting old! I can't keep up with you young people anymore!"
"You should have killed me! Why didn't you finish me off after you subdued me?"
