The Prince of Xiliang!
Ning Kun stared at the corpse on the ground, unable to contain his anger as he glared at the woman before him. He snapped, "This man was one of my trusted confidants! He was merely going to the backyard to find my wife. What right did you have to kill him!"
"Hmph, trespassing in the backyard is a capital offense. So what if he's your confidant!" Lü Qiling looked at Ning Kun, who had a murderous look on his face, and said with a sneer, her eyes flashing with disdain.
"You!!!"
This almost made Ning Kun furious. How could a woman be so arrogant? She simply didn't respect them at all. Lin Yi was going too far!
I've been so tolerant, and you still killed my men? This is completely intolerable!
He glanced at Xu Chu and sneered, "Commander Xu, this man attacked my men with deadly intent. You owe me an explanation!"
"Miss Lü is responsible for guarding the backyard; no man is allowed to enter. This person's unauthorized intrusion is not a problem," Xu Chu said in a deep voice, his face dark.
However, he secretly glanced at Lü Qiling and saw the murderous intent in her eyes, which made him feel a dull pain in his chest. He quickly looked away.
This woman is not someone to be trifled with!
Ning Kun is courting death by provoking this young lady. Moreover, he probably sent this person into the backyard not for Princess Qingfeng, but to spy on his lord's secrets.
That bastard, he really had malicious intentions.
Upon hearing his words, Ning Kun's expression changed drastically, and he angrily retorted, "So, my men died in vain?"
"You know perfectly well how your men died, and besides, I can't beat her. If you're not happy about it, you can send someone to teach her a lesson!" Xu Chu glanced at him and said with a mocking expression.
"I'll do it!"
Wang Xiaoyi, standing behind Ning Kun, couldn't help but step forward. He was furious that a mere woman dared to be so arrogant, saying, "How dare a woman be so vicious and defy our General! She may escape death, but she won't escape punishment!"
He had been holding back for a long time!
The Prince of Xiliang is not to be trifled with, so is it that even a female guard is someone we can't afford to offend?
He drew his sword and charged at Lü Qiling. Even if he didn't dare kill her, he could still teach her a lesson.
Ning Kun's heart skipped a beat, but he didn't stop him. Letting Wang Xiaoyi test the other party and give him a taste of his own medicine wouldn't be bad.
At the very least, we can't let the other party do whatever they want!
Forehead!
Seeing this, Xu Chu couldn't help but give a thumbs up, thinking, "This kid is brave!"
She stabbed me, and you're so brave!
"You?"
Lü Qiling glanced at Wang Xiaoyi, who was charging towards her, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes, and hurled a shot at him.
The movements were light and effortless, without the slightest hint of malice, as if they were just a casual strike.
That's outrageous!
Wang Xiaoyi's face was extremely ugly. This person actually looked down on him so much and acted so casually.
He swayed, preparing to take the bullet head-on, and then launch a close-range attack.
But the moment he touched the spear, his face turned green, and he exclaimed, "How is this possible? It's so heavy!"
Then a tremendous force exploded in his hand, knocking his knife away. A spear then lashed out, sending him flying.
He was instantly killed!
Grunt!
Seeing this, everyone gasped. Wang Xiaoyi was a rare expert in Ning Kun, yet he was instantly killed by a woman, and with such a nonchalant manner.
This is absolutely terrifying!
Their gazes towards Lü Qiling turned fearful. Was she really a woman?
"Hmph, you think you can teach me a lesson?"
Lü Qiling glanced at Ning Kun, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes, and sneered, "If it weren't for the lord forbidding me from killing indiscriminately, you Tiandu! Remember, only the lord is allowed to enter the backyard!"
"Did you hear that? My words are my words."
Xu Chu's lips twitched, and he immediately echoed loudly.
Last time, he stepped in too far and got a hole in his body. This woman is not to be trifled with, especially since she's also very beautiful. If she accidentally becomes the mistress of the house, she'll be even more untouchable.
Seeing Wang Xiaoyi vomiting blood, Ning Kun's face turned extremely grim. He was seriously injured, and if he didn't receive timely treatment, he would probably die here. This woman was truly ruthless.
On the top of the Star-Picking Tower, Lin Yi watched the scene below, a smile flashing in his eyes. The other party had indeed found a good target to establish their authority!
It's better to find Xu Chu than Lü Qiling, after all, Xu Chu's attacks aren't very strong.
But Lü Qiling is different. She inherited her father Lü Bu's divine strength. If you don't have Xu Chu's defense, you're just going to your death if you throw a spear at her.
Xun Yu, standing to the side, was also somewhat dumbfounded, exclaiming, "Good heavens, this Miss Lü is actually so powerful! She's probably a formidable general!"
"That Wang Xiaoyi is Ning Kun's confidant, yet he was defeated so easily. It's truly terrifying!" Even Chen Dao couldn't help but narrow his eyes. No wonder the lord entrusted Lü Qiling with guarding the backyard.
With this woman around, the lord's harem is as solid as a rock; no one can get past her.
He felt that even if he went up there himself, he wouldn't be able to handle this woman, and he might even suffer an unexpected setback. This woman was formidable.
Lin Yi smiled. How could Lü Bu's daughter not be formidable? She's practically the Little Lü Bu.
Ning Kun, however, surprised him somewhat. Perhaps because of Princess Shenle's warning, he hadn't taken any major actions these past two days, aside from some necessary sightseeing.
He laughed and said, " Ning Kun is probably leaving. He knows he won't gain anything by staying here, and might even anger me. Then, if he wants to leave, he won't be able to!"
"Hehe, he's already gotten the information he wanted, so naturally he'll leave," Xun Yu said with a smile.
"Oh, what do you mean?"
Xun Yu glanced at Ning Kun and couldn't help but laugh, "Actually, he doesn't need to investigate too many things. He only needs to know the reactions of the lord, his ministers, and his soldiers."
Faced with his 200,000-strong army approaching, my Xiliang showed no fear whatsoever; in fact, he already knew what was going on.
Then came the confidence in the eyes of the people of Xiliang, the disdain in the eyes of the soldiers, and with Miss Lü's act of killing someone today, her unwavering confidence only strengthened Ning Kun's conviction.
I see!
Everyone nodded in agreement. That made sense; it seemed Ning Kun was quite a clever man to have come up with such a method to test Xiliang.
Although we don't know the specifics, we can still find some things by testing them out.
Lin Yi chuckled and said quietly, "This Ning Kun is quite interesting. If he hadn't concealed his true intentions, I really would have wanted to keep him here."
