Another wave of the killing array passed, several ninjas fell directly, including the one who used the blowgun for a surprise attack. It seed he focused more on disguise and ambush, his martial arts were not that good.
Yuan Licheng’s face was full of excitent, "Almost there, the feast of slaughter is about to begin!"
Bai Ruozhu and the others rushed in, Jiang Yichun went ahead of Bai Ruozhu and chopped off her target’s head. She turned to look at him, "Why are you competing with for kills?"
"Let do it, so your hands won’t get dirty." Jiang Yichun said in a deep voice.
Bai Ruozhu was displeased when she heard this, "Why can’t I kill soone? Are you saying I’m too vicious?"
Jiang Yichun’s mouth twitched, he just wanted to pamper his woman, afraid that blood would splash on her, and then she’d have to wash multiple tis due to her cleanliness obsession, and she would feel nauseated, affecting her appetite. How could she think of it as contempt?
"In my dictionary, killing those who deserve it is decisiveness, it’s straightforward, how could I think you’re vicious?" He had to explain.
Bai Ruozhu snorted, "Then don’t stop , I have a belly full of anger that I must vent, anyway, I’m not so delicate girl who needs a man’s protection."
Jiang Yichun smiled wryly, "Alright, alright, I won’t compete with you."
That’s what he said, but he still carefully moved around her vicinity, in case she encountered danger.
Although he knew that his wife was particularly powerful, and he had absolute confidence in her, after all, they had encountered Fusang’s ninjas too few tis, and didn’t know what special techniques they might have, so he dared not be careless.
The nocturnal street had hardly any pedestrians, but a woman dressed stumbled over, not expecting to hear the sounds of fighting and those miserable screams before reaching the posthouse.
Sa Tian was so scared he froze in his tracks, he listened carefully, the screams weren’t from Bai Ruozhu and the others, so were even calling for help in Fusang language, for a mont Sa Tian didn’t know what expression to show.
He was worried that Master Bai and the others were in danger, but it was obvious that the ninjas who ca to assassinate beca the lambs to be slaughtered, only able to call for help pitifully. The sound was truly miserable.
"Miss, you better find a place to hide, they’ve been fighting there for a while, what if you’re hurt by accident?" A shopkeeper from a shop by the roadside saw Sa Tian through the crack in the door and advised in a low voice.
Sa Tian urgently pinched his throat, pretending to be a woman’s voice, saying: "Old man, what’s going on? I’m badly burned, people asked to beg the Zhongyuan lords to ask a lady doctor to treat my wounds."
As he spoke, he revealed his badly burned hand, scaring the shopkeeper into gasping.
"You can’t go now, many ninjas went there, but I heard it’s mostly ninjas crying for help, yet the sound is too scary, these Zhongyuan people are too, too..." The shopkeeper shivered, "Too cruel."
Sa Tian was a bit displeased, but said with a straight face: "Aren’t the ninjas sent for assassination supposed to be death warriors? If they’re not killed, we’ll just wait to be killed ourselves."
The shopkeeper nodded, "You do have a point, hey, co hide in my shop first, seek treatnt later."
"Thank you, shopkeeper." Sa Tian bowed and hid inside the shop.
Not long after, footsteps sounded on the street again, it was the city patrol guards who arrived, also subordinates of General Chisong.
Zhongyuan envoys, treated as honored guests by Fusang, were actually attacked in the posthouse, and the commotion was so big, how could the patrolling n not appear?
Unfortunately, when they rushed into the posthouse, corpses already piled up on the ground.
The city patrol team leader opened his mouth wide, staring dumbfounded at Jiang Yichun and the others, and asked, "Wha—what’s going on?"
After asking, he realized he spoke in Fusang language, the other party might not understand, hurriedly switched to Chinese, but his Chinese was poor, took a long ti to squeeze out three words: "What happened?"
Jiang Yichun stepped forward, pointed at the ground full of corpses, and said: "Ninjas attacked us from sowhere, we could only defend with all our might."
Unfortunately, the city patrol team leader’s Chinese was poor, he couldn’t understand, but seeing Jiang Yichun’s stance, he guessed the general situation.
He wanted to approach a few steps to see the ninjas clearly, but Jiang Yichun suddenly shouted: "Don’t move!"
He was so scared he jumped back several steps, if these people attacked him, wouldn’t he die more miserably than the ninjas?
Yuan Licheng on the side put away two Formation Stones, nodded to Jiang Yichun, and said: "It’s done."
The array was just activated, if that captain went in, it’d be like stepping into the illusion array like those ninjas, although they could find ways to wake him, not letting him continue into the killing array, in a worst-case scenario, he’d end up guarding Fusang.
Outside, Sa Tian saw that all the city patrol guards went in, hurriedly told the shopkeeper, and ran out.
The shopkeeper was a bit worried, but rembering the girl’s arm injury, knew there was no way, if such a severe injury wasn’t treated, forget about scars, she might not even survive.
Sa Tian rushed in, startling the already tense patrol guards, who all pointed their swords at him.
"Who goes there?" The team leader shouted, feeling truly unfortunate today, first scared by Zhongyuan people, then frightened by a woman, he was really angry now.
Sa Tian hurriedly raised his hands, "Don’t act, I am Sa Tian!"
With his voice, soone recognized him, though the team leader was still furious, his tone carried a disdainful taste, "Mr. Sa Tian, you dressed as a woman at night, I didn’t know you had such a hobby."
Sa Tian’s face turned hot, but he bit back his frustration, "I have my own arrangents, did the general say how to handle these ninjas?"
The team leader helplessly looked at the ground full of corpses and said: "We ca in a hurry, haven’t reported to the general yet." After saying this, he pointed at a guard and said: "You’re fast, go and report to the general."
Sa Tian didn’t argue further with him, instead headed towards Bai Ruozhu and the others, saluting and saying: "Master Bai, mission accomplished."
Bai Ruozhu was amused by his disguise, "Sa Tian, your Chinese is really good!"
She originally wanted to joke a few tis, but suddenly her expression changed, "You’re injured? What happened to your hand?"
Everyone’s eyes fell on Sa Tian’s hand, his sleeves were stained with blood and pus, not obvious in the dark, but visible under the light.
Sa Tian smiled wryly, "It’s nothing, this way I passed through those blocking ."
Bai Ruozhu imdiately realized, he deliberately wore a female kimono, disguised as a young woman, and burned his hand like that to complete the task she assigned.
For a mont, Bai Ruozhu’s heart clenched, he actually completed the task using such self-destructive ans!
