"Let's go through the back door!"
Kicking open the bloody back door, Lin Muyu grabbed Chu Yao and flew out, only to see that the city streets were filled with armored cavalry. City Lord Hua Tian moved really fast. The city was most likely surrounded by soldiers already. If they didn't take advantage of the chaos to escape, Silver Fir City would definitely become his and Chu Yao's grave.
… …
They chose to go through alleyways and quickly weaved through the chaotic crowd.
However, when they arrived at the city gate, they discovered that a group of guards was closing the city gate. However, an ox cart was halfway through the gate when its wheels collapsed, and the cart was filled with heavy sacks of grain. This was a great help, but it was a pity that the city walls were filled with soldiers, many of them holding longbows in their hands with arrows already nocked.
"We can't leave!" Chu Yao said through clenched teeth.
"No, we have to go!"
Lin Muyu grabbed Chu Yao's hand tightly and said, "Come with me. Don't hesitate or retreat."
"Mn."
The two of them rushed out at high speed. The guards didn't even have time to react before Lin Muyu and Chu Yao flashed past like lightning and rushed out the moment the gates were about to close.
"Those two are the felons of the empire, Lin Muyu and Chu Yao. Kill them immediately!" A familiar angry roar came from the city walls. It was City Lord Hua Tian. Hua Wan was standing next to his father with a cold smile on his face.
The bows on the city walls shot out arrows one after another. Lin Muyu shouted as she ran. The green gourd emerged from her body and formed a two-meter tall Mystic Tortoise Shell behind her. "Peng, peng, peng", the Mystic Tortoise Shell deflected the arrows. The defense of the Mystic Tortoise Shell was indeed unparalleled.
"Traitor, you still want to leave!?"
Hua Wan suddenly pulled out his longsword and jumped off the city wall. He landed on a warhorse and pointed his sword forward. He shouted, "Iron Cavalry Camp, follow me and kill Lin Muyu!"
Hua Tian shouted from the city walls, "Wan 'er, stop! You don't need to do it yourself if you want to keep them here! Men, bring that lowly servant to me! "
Two cavalrymen dragged a woman up the city wall. It was Xiang Xiang. At this time, Xiang Xiang's face was covered in bruises, and there were even whip marks on her chest and arms. She was covered in blood.
Infuriated, Lin Muyu pointed at Hua Tian, who was standing on the city wall, and bellowed, "Hua Tian, you son of a bitch! If you have a problem, come at me! Why are you torturing a maidservant like this?!"
Hua Tian smiled faintly and said, "Lin Muyu, I know that Xiang Xiang has given her body to you. She's your woman. If you're a man, you'd better surrender. Otherwise, this twenty-meter-tall city wall will be the place where she dies!"
Lin Muyu held Chu Yao's hand tightly. It was impossible for him to give up Chu Yao to save Xiangxiang.
…
Looking at the hesitant Lin Muyu below the city walls, Xiangxiang's tears rolled down her cheeks. Her body trembled slightly as she cried, "Young Master, you still don't believe me even now, right? You still don't believe that Xiangxiang is willing to do anything for you, right? "
Lin Muyu clenched her teeth and said, "Xiangxiang!"
Xiangxiang laughed, but it was a very sad laugh. "Young Master, Xiangxiang's body is not clean anymore. I'm not good enough for you. But just like you said, Xiangxiang should choose her own life."
Hua Tian said angrily, "You bitch, what nonsense are you talking about? You're a maidservant of the City Lord's Mansion. When did you get to choose your life? Men, tear off her clothes. I'd like to see how she chooses her own fate! "
A guard stepped forward and grabbed Xiang Xiang. "Rip!" The clothes on her upper body were torn to shreds.
Xiangxiang remained silent. When her clothes were completely torn to shreds and she was completely naked, she slowly lowered her body and picked up the pieces of cloth to cover her breasts. Although her movements were slow, those pieces of cloth seemed to be her last shred of dignity. She would rather give up everything than give up her dignity.
"I was born free." Xiangxiang looked at Hua Tian. There was no longer any fear in her eyes, and her voice was full of calmness.
She slowly approached the city walls and suddenly smiled. In an extremely gentle voice, she said to Lin Muyu, "Young Master once said that dignity is worth fighting for at the cost of one's life … Young Master, if you don't believe me, then I will prove it to you!"
Hua Tian's cold eyes fell on her. He knew that this kind of woman was afraid of death. In order to live, she could sell her body. She had given her virginity to him in order to survive, which proved everything.
However, under Hua Tian's gaze, this weak woman jumped up like a meteor and shattered into pieces. Her young life was gone in the blink of an eye.
Looking at Xiangxiang lying in a pool of blood under the city walls, Hua Tian was shocked. Soon, his shame turned into anger. He shouted in a low voice, "Men, drag this woman's body back and feed it to the dogs!"
Outside the city walls, Hua Wan had already charged over with his long sword in hand.
… …
Lin Muyu stared at Xiangxiang's body from afar. He suddenly froze in place, feeling as if his heart had been pierced by a thousand arrows. He slowly turned around and said to Chu Yao, "Sister Chu Yao, run into the Seven Stars Forest quickly. I'll catch up to you in a moment. You'll only be a burden if you stay here."
Chu Yao knew that he was speaking the truth. Her strength was far, far inferior to his.
"Mn. Come here quickly."
Drops of rain fell from the sky. She ran madly through the rain towards the Seven Stars Forest. She didn't know if it was because of the rain or her tears. She knew that Lin Muyu wanted to take revenge for Xiangxiang, but she couldn't stop him. She could only pray for him from the bottom of her heart.
… …
The charging power of a cavalry was terrifying, especially the armored cavalrymen of the prefectural army. Their charging power was even more frightening.
Lin Muyu didn't move an inch. When Hua Wan's warhorse was only ten meters away from him, he abruptly raised his fist and exploded in the air. Hua Wan's warhorse was immediately frightened and knelt to the ground with a long neigh, throwing the young city lord off his horse. Hua Wan's skills were also extraordinary. When he fell off his horse, he stepped into the air and exerted strength. His longsword carried the full power of his thunder awl martial soul, and he swung it at Lin Muyu.
"Whoosh!"
Stepping on the rain-soaked grass, Lin Muyu immediately activated the Falling Star Steps. Hua Wan's attack also landed heavily on the ground. His attack was far too clumsy compared to Lin Muyu's. Both of them were at the first level of the Earth Realm, but the true difference in strength was astonishing.
"Bang!"
Lin Muyu's elbow struck the back of his opponent. His longsword flashed like lightning, shattering the opponent's energy shield and tearing a bloody wound in Hua Wan's abdomen.
"Ahhhh …"
Hua Wan roared and swung his sword in a circle. However, he did not manage to hit Lin Muyu. He panted heavily as rainwater flowed down his cheeks. Just as he was about to move, he felt a cold blade on his neck from behind.
"Kneel."
Lin Muyu's icy voice sounded. Hua Wan couldn't help but kneel on the ground when he felt a heavy blow on the back of his knee. He looked up at his father on the city wall, his eyes filled with disbelief. "Father …"
Hua Tian's head exploded. He never thought that his son would be so weak.
"Let go of the Young Lord, and I'll spare your life!"
Hua Tian roared and rushed down the city wall. He was a level 47 Battle Venerable. Holding a long spear in his hand, he roared angrily, "Lin Muyu, you're just a lowly commoner. If you kill a noble, your whole family will be implicated. Let go of my son, and I'll let bygones be bygones. I'll let you and Chu Yao go!"
The rain was getting heavier and heavier. Lin Muyu's eyelashes were already covered with rainwater, but her eyes were filled with coldness. She suddenly laughed and said, "Let us go? Hua Tian, you'll die here today. Do you know that? "
Hua Tian roared, "Who do you think you are? You want to kill me? You're too arrogant, you little bastard! "
Lin Muyu gently pulled the long sword, and with a crack, the main artery in Hua Wan's neck was cut. Blood spurted out, and Hua Wan immediately knelt on the ground. He covered the wound with his hands, but it was impossible. Blood mixed with rainwater and splashed everywhere. Hua Wan's life was rapidly drained, and in the blink of an eye, he became a corpse lying on the ground.
"Ahhhh …"
Hua Tian seemed to have turned into a wild beast. His whole body was covered with lightning bolts, and he pounced on Lin Muyu. "Arrogant little bastard, I'm going to kill you!"
Arrogant!
Lin Muyu was arrogant, but he was not reckless. Judging from Hua Tian's momentum, he knew that he couldn't fight him head-on. He spun his feet and took a few steps back. He waved his long sword and activated the Wind Symbol Formula of the Wind Riding Sword Art. His body was wrapped in an invisible gust of wind as he dashed towards his opponent and launched a Lightning Strike.
However, Hua Tian's speed was not inferior to Lin Muyu's. With a flick of his long spear, he actually parried the Thunder Strike with a loud clang. Hua Tian leaped into the air and kicked the Thunder Hammer out of his foot, hitting Lin Muyu's Black Tortoise Shell with a loud bang. Seeing this, Hua Tian let out a cold harrumph and thrust his long spear forward like a poisonous snake. With a "puff" sound, a flower of blood blossomed on Lin Muyu's shoulder.
With one sword strike and one kick, Lin Muyu was sent rolling in the mud. This defeat was too quick and too miserable!
"Break!"
Hua Tian suddenly stomped on the ground. Immediately, an invisible force broke the ground and twisted the furious thunder. Lin Muyu didn't dare to take it head-on. He hastily moved sideways and tried to grab it. However, he was still burned by the thunder, and his wounds were bleeding profusely.
After gaining the upper hand, Hua Tian attacked again and again. In less than a few minutes, at least seven or eight wounds had appeared on Lin Muyu's body.
"Swoosh!"
A green vine broke out of the ground and directly wrapped around Hua Tian's right leg. The thorns on the green vine were so sharp that they directly pierced through his skin.
"What's that?!"
Hua Tian disdainfully chopped off the green vine, but he didn't know that his True Qi was rapidly flowing out of his wound.
Lin Muyu only defended and didn't attack. She used the Green Rock Armor and the Black Tortoise Shell to defend against Hua Tian's continuous attacks.
Hua Tian had the upper hand. Hundreds of cavalrymen around him didn't make a move. They were all waiting for the City Lord to personally kill the fugitive to avenge his son.
… …
Finally, after a long time, Hua Tian's aura became chaotic. Although Lin Muyu was covered in wounds, she still held on with her strong willpower. She swung her left fist horizontally and launched a Demon Noise Punch. It was time to counterattack!
"Bang!"
The Demon Noise Punch landed on Hua Tian's chest, but it only hit the Qi shield. Since Hua Tian's True Qi was far stronger than his son's, the Demon Noise Punch naturally wouldn't penetrate his internal organs so easily.
"Hmph, it's just a small trick. It's not worth mentioning!"
While Hua Tian was cursing, Lin Muyu suddenly stretched out her hand behind her. In the next moment, four flying daggers merged into a four-edged flying wheel and swept out. The Demon Noise Saber had launched a surprise attack!
"Clang!"
Hua Tian abruptly swept away the Demon Noise Saber with the tip of his spear and cursed, "Hidden weapon? You despicable little bastard, do you think you can defeat me with hidden weapons? "
Lin Muyu didn't say anything. She raised her sword and launched a Lightning Strike. Then, she raised her left hand and launched two Demon Noise Punches!
"Bang! Bang!"
Hua Tian's qi and blood surged under the continuous attacks. However, he was still as powerful as before. He launched a lightning cone attack and sent Lin Muyu flying back dozens of meters while vomiting blood. Holding the long spear in his hand, Hua Tian sneered and said, "Who do you think you are to fight me? I'm going to cut you into a million pieces for killing my son! "
At this moment, the corner of Lin Muyu's mouth curled up into a smile.
"What?"
Hua Tian cursed inwardly. Suddenly, a whistling sound came from behind his head. Before he could react, the Demon Noise Saber swept across the air with a loud crack. Lin Muyu leaped up and caught the flying dagger, disassembled it, and put it into the luggage bag tied around her waist.
… …
Hua Tian stood there in silence. The group of guards were also dumbfounded. In their eyes, the City Lord's head finally slid down slowly.
