She Rebuilt Her Fallen Country With Storage Space-Chapter 206: The Scholars’ Identities Are Extraordinarily Uncommon
Chapter 206: Chapter 206: The Scholars’ Identities Are Extraordinarily Uncommon
Xiang Xiuxiu fainted after she finished speaking, her little head lolling to the side.
Xiang Ying timely fed her water from the space and sealed her pressure points.
She turned her head to see that the door of the room had been slightly pushed open.
The villains outside peered into the room through the crack.
They couldn’t see the bed from this angle, but there was no movement.
He signaled to his accomplices with a glance, "We can make our move now!"
Only when he completely pushed the door open and stepped inside, did he feel a flash of cold light at the base of his ear!
Before the villain could turn to look, Xiang Ying, who had been hiding behind the door, approached like a specter with a Dagger in hand.
She smacked the hilt of the dagger hard against the temple of the intruder, who collapsed to the ground without even having time to scream.
Sanjiao Eye, who followed behind, was taken aback.
"Damn it, this kid wasn’t sleeping, ambushing us, let’s all attack together!"
They kicked open the room’s door and rushed in, with their broadswords still smeared with blood that wasn’t fully wiped clean.
Xiang Ying showed no fear.
The first two who entered triggered a trap, and in an instant, hidden needles shot into their foreheads, killing them on the spot.
Sanjiao Eye suddenly froze at the door, not daring to advance further.
Xiang Ying sneered coldly, "How does it feel? A bunch of vicious bandits, raiding a store and attempting to murder a family, your lives end with me!"
Suddenly.
A bird whistle sounded from outside the inn, followed by Qi Fengyi’s shouts from the room next door.
"Young Master, they have more ambushes!"
Xiang Ying heard the sound of several people breaking into the inn.
Sanjiao Eye also revealed a sinister cold smile, "Rascal, you think you’ve got the ability just because you’ve had a few years of easy living? Watch as I capture you today and skin you alive!"
With a wave of his hand, his gang of bandits surged in!
Xiang Ying discarded the Dagger and suddenly pulled a long sword from her sleeve.
Sanjiao Eye was taken aback again.
What was this brat up to?
Xiang Ying’s movements were agile as she took the initiative to attack, her long sword weaving a trail of cold light in her hands.
She first sidestepped the ferocious slash from the lead bandit, then ducked low and drove her sword upward, directly stabbing into the abdomen of another bandit at her side.
The bandit howled in pain, dropping his broadsword to the ground, which Xiang Ying hooked up with the tip of her foot, kicking it out like a deadly weapon.
It hit the chest of the bandit guarding Sanjiao Eye outside the door.
More and more bandits were flooding in from outside, and Sanjiao Eye slowly retreated, a cunning light swirling in his eyes.
This person was too strong; they couldn’t break through.
Sanjiao Eye instantly set his eyes on the tightly shut room next door.
If he remembered correctly, the warning shout had just come from that very room.
Sanjiao Eye immediately headed towards the room where Qi Fengyi and the others were.
Over at Xiang Ying’s location, swords and daggers clashed, sending sparks flying in all directions.
One of the bandits found an opportunity and rushed to the bed, intending to take the three children hostage.
But unexpectedly, when the blankets were thrown aside, a choking powder was released!
Instantly, he felt a burning pain on his face and screamed, "What is this stuff! I can’t see!"
Xiang Ying had already carried the children into the wardrobe before they entered.
She took the opportunity to stab at the back of the villain, her sharp swordplay piercing through his chest, causing him to fall into a pool of blood.
The floor was littered with bandits, dead or severely injured.
At this point, Xiang Ying had taken the last bandit hostage, the edge of her sword pressed against his throat. freewebnoveℓ.com
However, screams of pain from Qi Fengyi and the shrill cries of Tao Xue came from next door.
"Let go of me!" Aren was dragged out by Sanjiao Eye.
Upon seeing Aren being held hostage, Xiang Ying immediately slashed the throat of the thug she was holding, tossing him aside.
Her sword tip dripped with blood, which stained the corners of her once-clean robe.
Her looks became even more cold and distant, her gaze as sharp and piercing as a pool of snow.
"If you don’t want him to die, then don’t make any sudden moves!" Sanjiao Eye threatened, "Throw away your sword!"
Xiang Ying glanced at Aren, only to see him desperately shaking his head: "Brother Ah, don’t worry about me, they deserve to die... mmm!"
One of Sanjiao Eye’s accomplices punched Aren in the stomach, causing him to tremble with pain.
Xiang Ying threw her long sword towards Sanjiao Eye.
She wasn’t afraid of disarming because she had many weapons in her space.
Stabilizing them first was the priority.
Xiang Ying silently counted, and together with Sanjiao Eye, there were still eight opponents.
Had all the nearby bandits mobilized?
Sanjiao Eye saw Xiang Ying throw her weapon and thought she had lost the chance to resist, so he sneered.
"Kid, which faction do you belong to? State your name."
"I am nameless and without a sect, merely passing by," Xiang Ying’s eyes were black and sharp.
Sanjiao Eye mocked more arrogantly: "Without any background, you dare to fight us? Our brothers are well-known around here, and today, not a single one of your family will survive!"
Aren, enduring the pain, glared at him with bloodshot eyes.
"We have relatives in Shangjing City, we are on our way to seek their support. If you dare to act against us, our family will not let you go."
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Sanjiao Eye burst out laughing.
"So what if you have relatives in the Capital? We have killed government officers and looted supplies; a few more like you make no difference!"
Xiang Ying raised an eyebrow slightly: "Are you the bandits who recently robbed the grain supplies and military pay in Bai City?"
Sanjiao Eye proudly admitted: "That’s right, it was my big brother’s doing. I’m not afraid to tell you, encountering us is just your bad luck. I led my brothers down the mountain to practice our swordsmanship, and you just happened to run into us."
He said, and maliciously smirked: "Kill them, but leave that girl, she’ll fetch a good price!"
Suddenly!
The door of the room where the scholar was, was flung open, hitting Sanjiao Eye directly on the head.
He saw stars immediately, loosening his grip on Aren a bit.
Aren took the opportunity to push him away, running straight towards Xiang Ying.
The three scholars came out, each holding a long sword.
Xiang Ying looked at them, indeed they weren’t ordinary scholars.
She had noticed earlier that there were calluses on their hands, clearly not from writing or reading.
They must be martial artists.
Sanjiao Eye held his head: "Damn it, who are you guys? We were just dealing with them, and you few shabby scholars also want to rush to your deaths?"
The leading scholar lifted the blade of his sword, pointing it at him.
"You don’t deserve to know."
As soon as he finished speaking, he and his two companions launched a fierce attack.
Xiang Ying saw that the three were skilled with their swords, each strike ruthless, and she couldn’t help but watch for a moment.
They were clearly professional guards, the three working seamlessly together and quickly subdued the bandits surrounding Sanjiao Eye.
Seeing the situation turning against him, Sanjiao Eye attempted to escape while they were distracted.
The scholar forcefully hurled the sword in his hand, the blade tracing an arc in the air, precisely plunging into Sanjiao Eye’s leg.
At the same time, a crossbow bolt shot from Xiang Ying’s direction hit Sanjiao Eye’s neck.
Sanjiao Eye’s eyes widened, and he fell to the ground lifeless in an instant.
Seeing Sanjiao Eye dead, the two companions beside the scholar frowned: "General Pei, now that he is dead, how can we interrogate the whereabouts of Princess Xining?"
Xiang Ying raised her eyebrows.
So they were the guards of the Princess of Nanyue?
