Trantor: 549690339 |
Qiao Xiaomai was backing away hastily, reaching into her bosom to draw out a knife.
Just then, a whistling sound filled the air, and a long sword sliced through the void, stabbing straight into the belly of the ck Dog. The force of the blow hurled the dog from the air to the ground.
There was a muffled “thud”, followed by a bitter yelp from the ck Dog. It writhed in an attempt to stand up.
But the sword impaling its body was like a nail, pinning it to the ground. Blood flowed from its wounds, rapidly soaking the ground.
Xiaomai was stunned and quickly turned to look at Tong Sang.
Tong Sang usually carried a flexible sword around his waist. She had examined it carefully, and indeed, it was the same sword in front of her!
Tong Sang was evenly matched with Cen Hongping.
“Well, well, possessing such a sharp sword, you’re indeed a rebel! As an official, I will capture and punish you today!” Cen Hongping shouted.
Tong Sang responded nonchntly, “General Cen, you indulged a violent dog in the military camp, harming people. Haven’t you learnt your lesson from the previous incident?”
Mentioning the demotionst time, Cen Hongping was naturally full of resentment. He smirked, tightly clutching his whip, intensifying his offenses, “I am responsible for maintaining Daqi’s public security. You possess martial arts skills and hide a deadly sword. You most likely harbor nefarious intentions. I have to bring you to the county magistrate for questioning!”
“Your resistance to arrest proves that you are guilty!”
Military personnel are not allowed to interfere with local affairs, but they have the duty to maintain Daqi’s stability. If anyone looks like a rebel, they can bring them to the local chief for review.
Therefore, there were no loopholes in what Cen Hongping said.
Tong Sang fell silent.
Surrendering was out of the question.
And Cen Hongping capturing him was no more probable.
But Cen Hongping, after all, was once a top-ranking general with proficient martial arts skills. Subduing him would not be easy.
With the situation reaching this stage, there was no choice but to fight it out.
With the duel between Tong Sang and Cen Hongping at a stalemate, Xiaomai listened in on their terse exchange. Her brows furrowed and without a second thought, she stepped forward, pulling the sword out from the belly of the ck Dog.
Blood sttered all around.
The not-yet-dead ck Dog twitched a few times.
Ignoring all these, she threw the sword to Tong Sang, “Brother San, catch this!”
Upon seeing this, Cen Hongping swung his whip, intending to snatch the sword away.
Tong Sang directly raised his hand, channeling his inner energy, and ended up grabbing the airborne sword.
Cen Hongping was shocked at the sight of this, thinking, what immense inner power!
Originally, he was just finding an excuse to me Tong Sang, but now, he was really certain that Tong Sang was hiding some secrets.
A countrysided possessing such martial arts skills, it was a destined necessity for him to inquire into the circumstances!
At this point, Sun Junyan was eyeing Xiaomai gloomily. He swung the whip in his hand and shouted, “Thirty-five, Forty-three, Sixty-nine!”
Upon his words, three others let loose their dog leashes.
Three ck dogs were let out of control, ferociously barking and darting towards Xiaomai altogether.
Xiaomai’s pupils shrunk while she was internally cursing.
These four ck dogs were evidently specifically targeting her!
Cen Hongping and Sun Junyan hade prepared!
“Xiaomai!” Tong Sang eximed, throwing out the sword in his mouth again.
Cen Hongping was on guard and let out his whip, sessfully entangling Tong Sang’s sword.
Tong Sang sensed that he wouldn’t have enough time to rush over to rescue Xiaomai, so he quickly hurled out the dagger that had been lodged between his legs.
The dagger embedded itself into one of the dog’s skull. It shrieked and tumbled down to the ground.
The other two dogs still bounded towards Xiaomai.
Just then, a sharp arrow pierced through the air, with unstoppable momentum it pinned another ck dog to the ground.
Only the remaining one, ferocious as ever, charged at Xiaomai. With its forepaws raised and itsrge mouth wide open, it lunged to bite her.
