Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The assassin was not someone to be trifled with. The sharp blade in his hand pierced through the air, heading straight for Gu Qingxue’s heart.
Gu Qingxue dodged, allowing the sword to pierce through her cloak. She then deftly lowered her dagger and plunged it into the Assassin’s neck.
Fresh blood spurted out as if it was free. The assassin let out a painful whimper, and a few blood bubbles quickly appeared in his throat. His legs went soft and he fell to the ground.
Pulling out the dagger that was covered in warm blood, Gu Qingxue bent down to pick up the assassin’s longsword. She blocked another assassin’s longsword with her backhand and stabbed the dagger into the assassin’s heart!
The dagger was pulled out of the assassin’s heart. Gu Qingxue coldly watched as the assassin fell to the ground in pain.
After killing an assassin, the other two immediately pounced on her. Gu Qingxue flew up and kicked one of their knees. While the assassin was weak and kneeling, she quickly and decisively slit his neck with a knife.
Seeing that Gu Qingxue had killed three of their men in the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man in the lead looked displeased. He clenched the dagger in his hand and charged at Gu Qingxue with a cold expression.
Gu Qingxue felt the murderous intent and quickly turned around.
“Die!” The middle-aged man saw that his sneak attack was about to succeed, and the long sword in his hand went straight for Gu Qingxue’s face.
The panic on Gu Qingxue’s lips disappeared in an instant.
She raised her right arm and clenched her fist. The moment she clenched her fist, the hidden arrow on her arm shot out and pierced through the middle-aged man’s heart.
The middle-aged assassin leader had never expected that this weak-looking woman would have so many weapons. It did not look like something a weak woman should have!
However, the middle-aged assassin could not care less. He widened his eyes in pain, then his legs gave way and he fell heavily to the ground. He stopped breathing.
The middle-aged assassin was the backbone of the assassins. His sudden fall caused the other assassins to freeze in their tracks.
Gu Qingxue saw this opportunity and quickly cut a bloody path through the assassins. She charged straight in the direction of the group.
“Don’t care about the others. We must kill Gu Qingxue no matter what. We can’t let her return to the imperial consort’s tomb alive!” The oldest of the remaining six assassins quickly calmed down. He gritted his teeth and spoke angrily.
Hearing this, the assassins raised the sharp blades in their hands at the same time and rushed out from where they were standing, chasing after Gu Qingxue’s back.
Gu Qingxue was panting heavily. She turned around to look at the assassins closing in on her. She lifted her hand to untie her cloak and flung it at the assassins.
The cloak fell on the heads of two of them, successfully blocking their line of sight and slowing their pace.
“Damn b*tch, you only know how to play these little tricks!” The older assassin suddenly lifted the cloak covering his head. With a breath of resentment, he tapped the ground with the tip of his foot, and his figure turned into an afterimage, running straight behind Gu Qingxue.
Gu Qingxue seemed to lose her balance and fell heavily to the ground.
“Gu Qingxue, hand over your life!” The assassin ran over, the sharp blade in his hand dancing wildly as it was about to land on Gu Qingxue’s body.
Qin Yun and the others heard the commotion and happened to rush over.
When they saw the scene with their own eyes, they could not help but tremble..
