"Milord, be careful!"
"Milord, be careful!"
"Stop him! — — "
… …
The crowd was in chaos. The sudden appearance of the majestic saber light had thrown the two teams of forty people into chaos.
Wang Chong and Bai Siling were the leaders of this operation. If Wang Chong and Bai Siling were to die during the mission, all of them would be punished by the Ministry of Military Personnel, and their deaths would be recorded in their files forever.
To shoot a man, first shoot the horse. To capture the bandits, first capture the leader.
In a regular battle, the enemy's generals and marshals were always the priority targets. It was also because of this reason that all the soldiers would fight to the death to protect their generals.
If their generals were killed because they failed to protect them, it would be a huge dereliction of duty. But at this time, everyone had crossed the fence and entered the fray.
Due to the distance, no one was able to come to the rescue of Wang Chong and Bai Siling for the time being.
The situation was extremely dangerous.
"Hmph!"
Wang Chong sneered coldly. Looking at the dazzling saber glint above him, he drew his sword. Just as Zhang Xuan was about to execute the Eight Steps of the Furious Flood Dragon to kill this True Martial realm bandit, he suddenly heard a clear and melodious sound.
Before the sound had even faded away, a snow-white figure rose from the ground like a flood dragon, moving even faster than Wang Chong and attacking even faster than Wang Chong.
Boom!
This was the first time Wang Chong had seen Bai Siling in action. Her aura was boundless, and compared to before, it was as if she had become a completely different person.
The aura on her body was swift and fierce. The extremely soft and gentle Aura Energy was vast and mighty, spinning rapidly outside her body. Under the moonlight, the layers of Aura Energy emitted rays of light that were as sharp as swords.
In the face of that world-rending saber flash, Bai Siling didn't do anything. All she did was extend a jade-green finger. Her finger, which usually looked fair and delicate, was now exuding a silver-white light, as if it were a sword.
Rumble!
She stretched out her slender index finger and blocked the saber light. With just one finger, the saber light in the air froze. Almost at the same time, Bai Siling, who was in the air, lifted her leg. Her slender, graceful, and fair leg immediately kicked the figure who was sneaking up on her.
Those who didn't receive that blow would find it hard to imagine what kind of terrifying power Bai Siling, a delicate, slender, and beautiful woman's body contained.
In the darkness of the night, Wang Chong could clearly see the place where Bai Siling's sharp right foot had kicked. The man's body was bent like a shrimp, and his entire abdomen had sunk in.
Bai Siling's kick actually went into his body.
Bang!
With a bang, his body, which weighed no less than eighty or ninety kilograms, flew out like a cannonball. With a loud bang, he smashed through more than ten layers of fences and slammed into a tree that was more than a hundred feet away. With a loud bang, wood splinters swirled in the air. The man was kicked into the tree by Bai Siling.
Silence!
For an instant, the entire fort was deathly silent. Even the sounds of battle could not be heard. Bai Siling's fearsome kick had stunned everyone.
Even Wang Chong was dumbfounded.
He didn't expect Bai Siling to be so powerful. That slender body harnessed the fearsome strength of a Tyrannosaurus!
Gulong!
Even though there was no expression on his face, Wang Chong could clearly hear his throat moving. A few of his throat muscles were involuntarily swallowing.
"As expected of a lady of the Bai Clan! Truly powerful! "
This was the only thought in Wang Chong's mind. To think that he was still thinking of activating the Eight Steps of the Furious Flood Dragon. Bai Siling's attack had definitely surpassed his Eight Steps of the Furious Flood Dragon, reaching the level of his second sister and Marchioness Yi!
— — It had been so many days, and yet he was still standing so close to her.
If that kick had landed on him, he probably wouldn't have ended up any better than that fellow.
"How is it? Not bad, right? "
Bai Siling dusted her hands and landed on the ground lightly. Turning around, she looked at Wang Chong with a cold and arrogant smile.
There weren't many opportunities to subdue Wang Chong. This was a rare opportunity. Along the way, she had been suppressed by Wang Chong, and she had been suppressing her anger for a long time. Now, she was finally able to vent it.
"Not bad, not bad!"
Wang Chong's eyebrows twitched in embarrassment. Not only was this not bad, it was ridiculously good! It seemed like he would have to reevaluate this woman.
In the future, he would have to keep his distance from this woman.
"Lord, we've discovered a Hu!"
At this moment, a voice sounded in his ears. Wang Chong immediately recovered from his daze and walked toward the tree in the distance.
There were several cavalrymen surrounding the base of the tree. One of the cavalrymen was holding a torch, and by the light of the torch, Wang Chong could clearly see them in the darkness.
The person that Bai Siling had sent flying was a tall man with a long and curly beard. His head was wrapped in a black scarf.
Not far from him, the blood-stained Arabian scimitar that had flown out of his hand was particularly striking.
"Arabian!"
This thought flashed through Wang Chong's mind.
From the strange flash of saber light that had flashed through the air, Wang Chong had already known that this person was not from the Central Plains.
The people of the Central Plains did not know how to use scimitars.
This was the first time Wang Chong had seen an Arab in the stronghold during this mission.
"This mission is truly a complicated one. An Arab robbing an Arab. Who would believe it if I told them? "
A familiar voice came from behind him as Bai Siling slowly walked over.
"On the road to the Western Regions, there are not only Hu, Arabs, and Han. He might have felt a little guilty about robbing the Arabs, but he had never done so before. But robbing Han people shouldn't have any psychological burden, right? "
With his back facing Bai Siling, Wang Chong smiled.
Bai Siling's kick had been inconceivably powerful. The Arab's organs had ruptured and he was already on his last breaths.
"Who are you? Why are you here? "
A cavalryman holding a torch shouted at the side.
"Hmph!"
Although the Arabs had ruptured their internal organs, their vitality was extremely tenacious. He only snorted at the horseman's words, opened his mouth, and spat out a torrent of Arabic words. After saying that, he turned his head to the side, obviously unwilling to cooperate.
"Hu Yu? Who can understand this nonsense? "
The surrounding cavalrymen were stunned. Everyone around him was stunned when they heard that string of nonsense.
In the end, this fellow didn't know how to speak the Han language.
"It's Arabic, not Hu."
Bai Siling also frowned. In the Central Plains, there were very few who knew the language of the Hu merchants of the Western Regions, and Arabia was even more remote than the Western Regions, belonging to the extreme west.
The Tang dynasty rarely interacted with the Abbasid Caliphate, and those who knew Arabic were even rarer.
"I had held back a bit of my strength, wanting to give him a chance to breathe. But it seems like my efforts were in vain. It seems like I won't be able to get anything out of him. Kill him! "
Bai Siling said as she gestured for the cavalryman to strike. She thought that she would be able to get some information out of him, but it seemed like her efforts were in vain.
"Wait a moment!"
Suddenly, a voice sounded. Just as the cavalryman was about to strike, everyone heard another voice speaking in Arabic.
This one was completely different from the one they had heard earlier. It was an even younger voice.
"Arabic? You actually know Arabic? "
Bai Siling's eyes were wide open as she stared at Wang Chong in disbelief, as if she had just discovered a new continent.
Although Wang Chong had never said anything, Bai Siling was certain that he was the scion of some great clan in the capital. No one would believe that a scion of the capital could actually speak Arabic.
This was simply inconceivable!
Bai Siling realized that she might have to reevaluate this fellow beside her!
Wang Chong said nothing, only smiled back at her before continuing to interrogate the Arab expert. The two of them chattered in Arabic, leaving the crowd completely baffled.
But even a fool could tell that the Arab expert wasn't willing to cooperate. His replies were nothing more than 'I won't speak', 'I definitely won't speak', 'You should just give up', and so on.
Just when Bai Siling was about to give up hope and believe that Wang Chong would never succeed … Suddenly, Wang Chong said something, but the Arab expert paled, a hint of extreme panic appearing on his face. He looked at Wang Chong like he was looking at a demon.
What happened next left Bai Siling dumbfounded. After Wang Chong stuffed a healing pill into the Arab expert's mouth, the Arab expert, who had been prepared to die just moments ago, suddenly changed into a completely different person. He answered all of Wang Chong's questions without holding anything back.
"Just what did you say to him?"
Bai Siling finally couldn't help but ask. By the time Wang Chong finished his questions, the Arab expert was already dead. Wang Chong's healing pill could only delay a True Martial realm expert for a little longer. But this was not what Bai Siling was concerned about.
"It's nothing. I just told him that if he refused to cooperate, if he refused to cooperate, I will give him a grand funeral. I will give him a grand funeral of a heathen. "
Wang Chong nonchalantly said.
"Ah!"
Bai Siling was dumbfounded, and then she shook her head and smiled. She didn't know whether to praise Wang Chong or curse him. Although she hadn't interacted much with the Arabs, she knew that they believed in some sort of religion.
If Wang Chong said that he would give him a grand funeral of a heathen, this would be even more difficult for him to accept than death. The grander the funeral, the more afraid he would be.
"As expected, it's even harder to accept than death. No wonder he looked at you like you were a demon."
Bai Siling shook her head and laughed.
"Thank you for your praise!"
Wang Chong faintly smiled, unconcerned. As long as he could achieve his goal, Wang Chong didn't mind being viewed as a demon by an Arab.
The interests of the Arabs were not within his scope of consideration.
"You're truly shameless."
Bai Siling jokingly scolded.
"Thank you again for your praise."
