Chapter 269: Nowhere to Run
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After about two to three hours on the road, the team reached an open field with many surrounding hills.
There were long green gra.s.s and multicolored flowers.
Every now and then, they pa.s.sed by several big, lush trees.
It seemed serene.
However, everyone felt a little tired. After all, they’d been on the road for several hours!
“When will we reach the next town?” Mei Ye looked up into the sky and let out a long sigh.
“Little brother, another half an hour to go,” said Lian Jiuhua as he rode up to him and giggled.
“Who’s your little brother? Please call me Mei Ye or the fourth clan master!” said Mei Ye disgruntledly, as he looked at Lian Jiuhua.
Suddenly, many black sables emerged from the back of every hill.
Their bodies were slender and long. Their legs were short, and their heads were rather flat and triangular!
They had four canine teeth that glowed a s.h.i.+ny green.
They swiftly rushed over to the group.
In the blink of an eye, they ran at them.
Mei Ye had no time to argue with Lian Jiuhua and cried loudly into the horse carriage. “Milady, bad news! Hordes of nearby black sables are suddenly charging at us.”
Liu Rushuang immediately pulled away from Han Moze’s embrace. The expression on her face turned stern, as she looked out the window.
“Ah! Ah…” Then, shadow guards and a.s.sa.s.sins fell to the ground after they were bit by countless black sables.
Han Moze heard the cries of anguish outside and quickly bolted out of the carriage.
“Grrrr…”
Suddenly, dozens of sables flew toward Han Moze.
The look on Han Moze’s face turned ominous, as he spun around and flew up to the carriage.
Those black sables weren’t difficult to defeat, but there were simply too many of them!
Le Zhengyu curled up and crawled into a crack in the roof of the carriage.
So scary!
So many black sables!
He reckoned that he wouldn’t be able to even scratch these half a foot long, black sables.
Liu Rushuang saw the countless black sables outside, and tightly clenched both her fists.
They practically wanted to kill every last one of them!
In the blink of an eye, thousands of and a.s.sa.s.sins had practically all fallen down.
There were only a dozen shadow guards and a.s.sa.s.sins still standing.
Han Moze flew up onto the horse carriage with clenched fists and gritted teeth. “The people we have leftover, hear my order! Quickly group up by the horse carriage!” He ordered.
However, the dozens of shadow guards and a.s.sa.s.sins were up against countless highly poisonous black sables.
One could tell with just a glance who was weaker and stronger.
“Milady, hurry! Run!” Mei Ye cried before he collapsed, unable to endure the pain any longer.
“Milady, take care!” Lin Ye cried before he graciously fell to the ground!
“Milady, I hope to meet you in my next life!” Mo Ye cried who collapsed.
“Little brother, remember to burn offerings to me every year on Tomb Sweeping Day!”
In the end, Lian Jiuhua was defeated and collapsed to the ground after being attacked by hundreds of black sables.
…
In the blink of an eye, not a single shadow guard or a.s.sa.s.sin were left standing. Their faces had turned black!
There were no words to describe Liu Rushuang’s feelings!
What in the world had just happened?!
How truly heartbreaking!
She looked at her fellow a.s.sa.s.sins on the ground and sniffled. I’ll avenge you all!
But fortunately, black sables didn’t eat humans, so the shadow guards and a.s.sa.s.sins were only poisoned just then. They could still be saved!
Liu Rushuang immediately fell onto the roof of the horse carriage to deal with the endless incoming black sables with Han Moze.
As Liu Rushuang spun around and hurled a fist at the black sables, she asked, “Ze, do you have any plans? There are so many black sables! How long will we have to keep this up for?”
“The reproductive abilities of black sables and mice are extremely high, so I think there are more black sables out there, beyond our imaginations,” said Han Moze with a deep and resounding voice.
“I think so too! Who knows if our fallen shadow guards and a.s.sa.s.sins can hold on until we’ve killed all the black sables?!” Liu Rushuang cried with furrowed brows.
In a distance, Concubine Hui, Han Moze’s former concubine, watched everything unfold with a cold cackle. “This time, you both will die tragic deaths! Hahaha…”
