They knew what was good and what was bad. After a few rounds, the enemies that attacked Moon Manor did not pose much of a threat to Moon Manor other than leaving behind a large number of corpses. Their losses were negligible.
Although Qin Yu Ran was not a tycoon, but she had a reputation, and was rather wealthy, and the guards by her side were all of good standards. Many of them were given to her by the continent lords and nobles of the places she had toured, so their standards were definitely not low.
If I die, I die!
Pu, pu!
And he used his name to mark the location, it was also a clever move, they were extremely familiar with each other, but Qiao Yi An did not recognize them.
Li Ran shouted loudly. His face was covered in sweat and dirt, but his expressionless face was currently radiating a strange light.
Damn it!
Li Ran did not say a word, he stared at Qiao Yi An elegantly reaping lives. Qiao Yi An moved with ease, gracefully cruising around the circle formation, every time he touched it, he would take away a few lives.
Strength could win over fear, but courage and conviction could win over respect.
Qiao Yi An's pupils suddenly dilated, an extremely chaotic light aura appeared in front of him like a multi-colored light wall.
Li Ran dragged his slightly lame leg as he ran back and forth. When he was young, his right leg was injured in a battle, and he did not receive timely medical treatment, resulting in his right leg becoming a cripple. Li Ran, who had lost his fighting ability, was chased out of the army and lived on the streets, before being saved by Qin Yu Ran. Qin Yu Ran had once jokingly said, everyone's name had the word Ran in it, how could she just stand by and watch.
"Wait till I become the White Sands Continent Lord, I will be able to gather all the heroes under the heavens!" He Ying said proudly.
A trace of disappointment flashed in Li Ran's eyes. He knew that they no longer had a chance.
Looking at Li Ran running back and forth with his crippled leg and shouting commands with a hoarse voice, everyone felt some admiration for him. After spending so much time together, everyone knew Li Ran's legs very well. As long as his right leg stood for a long time, he would feel a stinging pain. In severe cases, it would even become swollen.
Having a tactical expert overseeing things was more useful than anything else. Although their individual strength was not weak, they were all put together. They were good at one-on-one combat and were not good at this kind of battle.
Moon Manor wasn't suitable for defense. The terrain here was too open. And because it was located inside the White Sands City, its builders did not consider the problem of defense, which brought Li Ran a lot of trouble.
The light aura that Qiao Yi An released was not dazzling, but when it entered the light barrier, it was like a sharp blade cutting through tofu, chi chi chi, a few heads flew into the sky, blood spewing everywhere.
The guards tenaciously protected Li Ran in the middle. Li Ran's eyes were bloodshot. He was like a wolf, an old wolf that was on the brink of death.
As soon as he finished, he leaped lightly and his body floated up. His speed seemed slow but it was actually fast. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the formation. He unsheathed his long sword in mid-air and a bright light sprinkled down.
Li Ran calmed down after her excitement.
In everyone's hearts, Li Ran was just a logistics officer who helped everyone manage their daily lives.
Suddenly, his body trembled, his eyes staring fixedly at the black mass of figures behind He Ying, like a black flood.
"Ah Xiang, focus on guarding!"
He stared at this group of wretched fellows. He couldn't believe that he was actually injured by these fellows.
The guards cheered loudly, it was the first time they were a threat to Qiao Yi An.
Li Ran stared at Qiao Yi An's fleeting figure, Qiao Yi An's movements were extremely deceptive, but Li Ran's battle experience was plentiful, and he knew that people had habits. This habit would be reflected in battles, and especially when there was no pressure in battles, the side that held the advantage would display even more of these habits.
Li Ran only hoped that Master Meng Nan would hurry over, that way he could be free. His right leg had already lost all feeling, but it was good that it was not painful.
The guards below roared and brandished their weapons, unleashing layers of light barriers.
… …
Li Ran's face was pale white, he suddenly realized that the He Ying in front of him was the true enemy. He had initially thought that the disturbance was just a few pirates or bandits, but now he understood, it was a civil war, a coup! And the one who started it all, was most likely He Ying.
No!
"Fuck, this pig head, he dares to think?"
Li Ran's standard was high!
His face was calm, giving everyone a reassurance, everyone believed that the situation was still within Li Ran's control.
Suddenly, a group of black dots appeared in the distant horizon.
Qiao Yi An's heart trembled, he bowed and replied: "Yes!"
As for the beauty's heart, would she be angry at him? He Ying did not care.
All of the guards focused and prepared to welcome the enemy. But when the enemy landed in front of the formation, the entire manor was in an uproar.
In truth, Li Ran's heart was not as calm as his expression, but instead, he was filled with anxiety and worry. The strength of these attacks was constantly increasing. At the start, there were only 3-5 thieves that wanted to take advantage of the situation, but now, there was already a small scale mercenary group.
~ Why isn't Master Meng Nan here yet? ~
"As expected of the Silver Winged Swordsman, he is very strong." The tall skinny man praised.
Blood surged to Li Ran's face, he was like a gambler that had lost all his chips, and was putting up a futile resistance.
The enemy was actually able to predict where he would land, he was caught off guard, and could only use all of his strength to brandish his sword!
The tall skinny man nodded his head: "That is true."
Afterimages appeared one after another, reflecting in his bloodshot eyes that were at the end of his rope.
Li Ran became agitated, he would definitely not agree to it! All of his fear was thrown to the back of his mind, the broken body was originally saved by the Young Miss, and to die for her, there was no better ending than that.
Li Ran's leg was swollen like a carrot, the blood vessels were like earthworms, it looked extremely terrifying. He did not feel anything, and continued to limp back and forth. Everyone looked at Li Ran with respect in their eyes.
Qiao Yi An flew away once again. Li Ran suddenly said softly: "When I say someone's name, everyone attack that direction, do not hold back."
Li Ran's throat was dry, he knew that they were in a life and death situation. He thought about the ladies in the manor, but at the same time, he thought about the Young Miss, He Ying would definitely not let the Young Miss go, if she were to fall into He Ying's demonic hands, she would become He Ying's plaything.
… …
The guards that were long prepared, without any hesitation, all of them gathered all of their energy and brandished their weapons!
Qin Yu Ran's guards looked at each other, then at Li Ran.
Rumble rumble rumble.
He unsheathed the sword by his waist, the simple and unadorned sword was raised up high, like a flag.
No one did not recognize the man in the center, he was the most powerful man in the entire White Sands Continent, the commander of the 2nd Army, He Ying.
"Master He is here, we are safe now!"
The remaining people were roused, they only had less than 20 people left. At that time, everyone knew that they would not be able to escape, and instead became even more ferocious, since they were going to die anyway.
Li Ran's face changed, he knew how powerful the Silver Winged Swordsman Qiao Yi An was, he had seen Qiao Yi An's dazzling performance a few times when he followed the Young Miss, but after personally fighting him, the feeling became even more profound.
Without any defensive structures, his subordinates were just a group of scattered soldiers, adding a useless commander that could not fight, Li Ran laughed bitterly in his heart, to be able to fight to such an extent, it could only be said that they were lucky.
Qiao Yi An's entire body lit up with a light barrier, he slapped out with his left palm, and groaned, his body flew out over 60m, before landing on the ground. His hair was disheveled, and blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth.
Ah Xiang and Xiao Lin's heads flew into the sky, the blood that spurted out reflected the smoky figure.
At that moment, he wished that his subordinates were a well trained army, he wished that he was like the past, able to fight with his life on the line, able to gamble everything he had!
He Ying arrogantly waved his hand, and a general stepped out, and bellowed: "From now on, the defense of this place will be taken over by the 2nd Army! Everyone, disarm, if anyone disobeys, kill without mercy! "
Li Ran's eyes turned red, he roared: "Formation! Circle Formation! "
Li Ran licked his lips, and thought in his mind.
"Hold your position, bring three more men!"
… …
"Leader Li is right, Young Miss has nothing to say to us, this life of mine is worth it!"
The pleasing sword technique ruthlessly reaped lives, any resistance in front of the dazzling sword aura was unstoppable.
The sword aura swept past seven to eight light auras, and finally broke.
Li Ran suddenly bellowed: "Dong Bo!"
"Ah Xiang, pin him there, leave the right wing to Xiao Lin!"
"We are saved!"
"Xiao Lin, use …."
"Yi An, I'll leave it to you, no need to leave anyone alive." He Ying said indifferently. The skinny tall man by the side had a faint look of ridicule in his eyes, causing He Ying to be enraged, and his killing intent soared.
Hearing the guards scolding him, He Ying's face became gloomy. The main force of the 2nd Army was not by his side, but the vanguard unit.
Until this time.
This conclusion caused everyone to be surprised, but more than that, they were happy. After travelling for so many years, everyone had rich experiences, and knew that the day was not going to be easy.
Li Ran was roused, and shouted: "Prepare to face the enemy!"
Many of the guards were actually filled with disdain towards Li Ran, in this world where the strong were respected, how could a trash win the respect of others? But Young Miss was insistent, and although Li Ran was unable to personally lead the troops into battle, but his daily management skills were not bad, and after a long time, no one said anything.
The incoming pressure made them feel despair, and they had nowhere to hide.
"That's great!"
Li Ran's command was extremely methodical.
But, against these small fries, the vanguard unit was more than enough.
But, they had nowhere to retreat to.
~ He is truly risking his life ….. ~
The ground was trembling, the houses were trembling, the air was trembling.
He was old, crippled, and about to die.
Bang bang bang, weapons continued to be thrown into the ground, causing the servants and guards of the local families to be overjoyed.
~ That is ….. ~
He Ying's face revealed a pleased look: "His strength is not bad, and he is even more obedient. You also know, the temper of the experts these days, are not good. "
But after continuously pushing back the enemy's attacks, everyone started to admire Li Ran. It was rumored that Li Ran was an officer of a proper army, but Li Ran had never given a direct answer, so everyone treated it as a rumor. But now, everyone suddenly realized that it might not be a rumor.
"Everyone pat your chest and say, how does Young Miss treat us normally? Nurture an army for a thousand days, use it now! We have received Young Miss' grace, and today is the day to repay it. Anyone who dares to plot against Young Miss, will have to step over our corpses! "
The guards' faces gradually became serious, all of them revealing a determined look. They were all experienced people, upon seeing the aggressive stance of the enemy, they knew that it would not be easy.
Qiao Yi An moved left and right, his movements were unpredictable.
The entire process was completed in one breath, and Qiao Yi An's movements were elegant, without a trace of anger, it was an unspeakable joy to the eyes.
Everyone thought in their hearts, no one had any disgust towards Li Ran's commands. Such a strong and unyielding man always made people excited.
Their trust in Li Ran made the situation even more stable. At that moment, Li Ran also tried to get the guards and servants to start preparing, for example building some simple fortifications.
