273: Another Victory

Another Victory

The leader of the attackers dressed in black checked to see if their own people were injured and couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Rain down your arrows! We must kill that tyrant and the demon empress!"0

Swiiish swiiish swiiish...

The poisonous arrows shot even more violently.

"Ah..." The shadow guards and assassins cried incessantly in pain.

"Big brother and sister, I don't want to see you guys shot to death like this!" Le Zhengyu wailed with a shriveled up body.

Bam bam bam...

Lian Jiuhua, Lin Ye, Mo Ye, Mei Ye, and the others stopped the neverending arrows from all directions, with their inner breath swords.

Their faces broke out in cold sweat!

They couldn't hold out much longer!

Han Moze shot a glance at the team's poor circumstances and squinted.

"Shuang'er, burn all the surrounding mountains!" He cried with a chilling voice and gritted teeth.

Liu Rushuang grinned and spoke with an equally chilling voice.

"Ze, that's a good idea! It'll feel good to wipe them all out in one go! I'll burn all these mountains right away!"

With that said, Liu Rushuang gathered up hundreds of small fireballs in both her hands, then abruptly hurled them at mountains on both sides of her.

Boom boom boom...

The little fireballs were like fiery bullets that crashed into the mountain tops.

Soon enough, the ambushing people dressed in black squealed endlessly in pain on the mountain tops. "Ahhhhh! Ahhh..."

They thought they weren't going to get hurt.

But what had happened?

Why was the demon empress so powerful?

After a short while, several mountain tops were engulfed in roaring flames.

"Ah... Run! Hurry..."

"Run! Hurry!"

"Heeeeelp!"

　　...

In the mountain tops, the people dressed in black ran away incessantly. If they didn't, they would have died in the sea of fire.

But most of those men had been killed by the fire bullets.

Le Zhengyu raised his antennae and saw Liu Rushuang elegantly conjure fireballs and hurl them at the mountain tops.

"Big sister, you're so cool!" He sighed in admiration, as his terrible mood turned around.

The shadow guards, the assassins, and the others saw the dwindling poisonous arrows on the mountain tops and let out sighs of relief.

They'll be safe with the clan leader around!

After less than fifteen minutes, the people on the top of the mountains all ran away. 

Liu Rushuang grabbed a poisonous arrow and spotted the sigil above it.

"Ze, this arrow is from the nation of Donghua," she said in a chilling voice.

"Is Donghua getting ready for war with Beiming too?" Han Moze said chillingly with furrowed brows.

"It looks like there'll be a tough battle ahead!" Liu Rushuang glanced at the wall of surrounding poisonous arrows with an awful look on her face. 

Han Moze didn't look quite well. When he saw the shadow guards and assassins, pierced with arrows, on the ground.

"Wuxin, grab five jugs," he ordered.

"Yes, young master," answered Wuxin, as he stood behind Han Moze.

Soon after, five jugs were brought forth.

Just like yesterday, Han Moze made five jugs of bloody water that would cure their poison.

The shadow guards and assassins drank the bloody water to cure the poison, then bandaged their wounds.

The team set off once again. Since quite a few people were heavily injured, they weren't able to move quickly. 

In the evening, the team reached the big city of Misty Rain. There were shops with red tiles and yellow beams and the streets were bustling.

It was a land of pleasure.

Horses coughed and spat.

The city flourished.

"Misty Rain City is really pretty!" Mei Ye cried in delight when he saw the thriving city.

Lian Jiuhua saw the fresh and exciting things were all around, as he thought about buying a gift for his wife.

Le Zhengyu crawled upon Liu Rushuang's shoulder and waved two antennae endlessly.

Liu Rushuang stared at the Misty Rain City with a smile on her face.

"Ze, let's go to the Drunken Cloud Pavilion," She told Han Moze.

"Mhm, alright," Han Moze looked at the prosperous Misty Rain City and felt a lot better.

Thereafter, the team went to the Drunken Cloud Pavilion of Misty Rain City to settle down.
