Chapter 260: Chapter 258: The Woman in White Clothes
Even when faced with the attack of many people, Ma Gai, fueled by a fierce desire for revenge, did not lose any ground.
At this moment, his heart was filled with the desire to avenge Lord Lin.
Even though his body was covered with five or six wounds, large and small, it did not slow his actions or cause him to frown.
Due to the unprecedented fighting power of the six guards, several guards just made contact, and already about a dozen of the men in black lay dead on the spot.
Such casualties forced the leader of the men in black to furrow his brow.
Normally, after several rounds of arrow volleys that had reduced the opposition’s force by more than half, only these seven were left.
With a few dozen men charging, it seemed unlikely that anyone should die or get injured.
Yet, unexpectedly, apart from one leader being dispatched with a single sword strike, these six others managed to kill over a dozen of his men.
This infuriated him greatly.
Tossing his bow and arrow to the ground, he grabbed his long sword, ready to jump into the fray and confront these six men personally.
However, just at this moment, at the very center of the battlefield, Lin Yi, who had been lying on the ground with his eyes shut, suddenly began coughing violently:
“Cough, cough! Splurt! Cough, cough!”
With the violent coughing, a stream of fresh blood spurted from his mouth.
Following that was his cursing:
“Damn, that hurt like hell! Thank heavens for the gift from my beloved Ying!”
While talking, he slowly got up from the ground.
And the leader of the men in black, just about to charge in, witnessed this scene and his eyes widened in shock.
He couldn’t believe what he was seeing in the scene.
Seeing Lin Yi, with a Feathered Arrow still sticking out of his back, getting up.
His lips trembled uncontrollably:
“How, how is this possible? How is he still alive?
That arrow was meant to pierce him through or at least take his life!”
Though he couldn’t understand it at the moment, it didn’t stop his next move.
He saw him inserting his sword back into its scabbard, then turned around and picked up the bow and arrow he had thrown away.
Since one arrow didn’t finish the job, then another one must.
He couldn’t believe that if he shot directly to the opponent’s head and they could still stand up. If so, he would twist off his own head and use it as a night jar!
Drawing the bow and placing the arrow, all in one fluid motion!
It must be said, this fellow’s archery skills were truly amazing, already aiming at Lin Yi.
Just as a playful smile appeared on his lips, suddenly, a flash of white light dazzled before him.
Then, in the next instant, he heard a ‘puff’ sound.
After that, his vision became unprecedentedly clear, as if he could oversee everything.
Yes, he felt as though he had flown up.
Why did the headless body currently drawing a bow and placing an arrow look so familiar?
This thought had just arisen when it disappeared forever.
He would never know why the scene that just unfolded had happened.
Then with a heavy thud, the leader’s large head had already fallen to the ground.
And in front of him, there was a woman in a white dress, wearing a veil, holding a long sword, standing in front of him.
Although the woman’s face was covered by a veil, merely from her eyes, one could tell she was definitely a beauty.
But in those eyes, there was nothing but icy intent.
The kind that made one feel a chill down their spine with just one glance.
With a wave of her hand, after killing the leader, the woman’s indifferent voice also rang out.
At the same time, from the jungle behind him, several equally delicate figures immediately leapt out.
After responding, they directly dove towards the group of men in black.
It must be said, although these women looked delicate and pretty, their actions were truly decisive and ruthless!
In just a moment, they had already rushed into the crowd.
And the thin swords in their hands almost seemed to have souls of their own.
As they moved, instantly, shadows fell to the ground one after another.
And when these people swung their thin swords, it almost gave the feeling of a graceful dance.
In the blink of an eye, more than 20 people had fallen to the ground.
Still watching the woman in white who had killed the leader of the men in black, she now stepped on the ground and immediately floated towards Lin Yi in the center of the scene.
And when these figures appeared, Lin Yi’s originally tense expression suddenly relaxed.
“Phew, thank God, Ying Yi, if you hadn’t come, you might have had to become a widow…”
However, just as he hadn’t finished muttering, a cold voice disdainfully spoke:
“Hmph! Instead of hoping for God’s blessing, you might as well improve your mediocre Kung Fu.”
It turned out, the woman in white had already arrived in front of Lin Yi.
But at this moment, his face still wore that proud and icy expression.
Yes, it was none other than Ying Yi.
As for the others, they were naturally the Shadow Guards.
Seeing her still maintaining such a cold demeanor, Lin Yi not only didn’t feel the slightest discomfort, but actually felt a deep familiarity.
However, this sudden relaxation, combined with the force from the recent arrow, was indeed not small, causing Lin Yi to feel dizzy and suddenly collapse towards Ying Yi.
The initially cold Ying Yi, seeing Lin Yi suddenly fall towards her, immediately panicked and hurriedly reached out to catch him.
But the next moment, the arrow in Lin Yi’s back caught Ying Yi’s eye.
This caused Ying Yi’s pupils to abruptly constrict.
A hand quickly reached towards the arrow.
Upon realizing that the man was wearing her own set of soft armor, she finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Though even so, the coldness in her eyes intensified a bit.
She casually lifted Lin Yi horizontally, stomped on the ground, and instantly leaped onto the back of a nearby horse:
“Leave two tongues, the rest are to be executed on the spot!”
After leaving this command, Ying Yi immediately clamped her legs around the horse’s belly, taking Lin Yi and sprinting towards Capital City.
The other Shadow Guards responded with an affirmative sound.
At the same time, they no longer held back with their hands.
The thin swords swiftly passed through the group of men in black.
