At that moment, a thought flashed through his mind. 'The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Perhaps sending troops this time was a mistake.' Before the bitter smile in his heart could form, endless darkness completely occupied his body and mind.
It was already the third day that Leah and Eirinn stayed in the military camp at the Great Wall.
In these three days, Leah brought Eirinn around this place and let Eirinn see what a real war was.
In fact, the reason they came to find Hua Mulan was that Eirinn had killed someone.
Young Master Murong.
Young Master Murong was the youngest son of the City Lord of Xianyang City in the Qin Kingdom. He was deeply loved by the City Lord.
This time, his murder shocked the entire city. The City Lord was enraged and killed over a hundred of the commoners present.
The purpose was to find out Eirinn's whereabouts.
Eirinn, who knew that she had caused trouble, quickly went to find her master, Leah. Leah did not say anything and brought Eirinn to the border of the Qin Kingdom, Hua Mulan's territory.
Hua Mulan and Leah had been good friends for many years.
When her good friend was in trouble, Hua Mulan would naturally help.
"Murong Heng, the City Lord of Xianyang City, is like his name. He is domineering and has strong martial arts. He is one of the most popular people around the first emperor, Ying Zheng. However, this is nothing. I don't take him seriously. Chan 'er, your sister Ling' er is the safest with me. "
That was what Hua Mulan said.
That night, Leah went to Hua Mulan's tent to discuss important matters.
Leah saw that there were no soldiers around the tent and felt strange. When she walked to the entrance of the tent, her eyes turned cold as she found something strange in the tent.
Someone had poisoned her.
Leah was instantly alert. She wanted to take out her dagger but suddenly remembered that she had given her Fish Intestine Dagger to someone.
She could only pinch the bones of her hand, revealing the sharp claws.
The situation in the tent shocked Leah.
The tent was brightly lit with flickering shadows. In the middle of the tent was a large bathtub half the height of a person. Hua Mulan was sitting in the bathtub, revealing a solemn face. Her pair of bright phoenix eyes revealed a look of exhaustion.
Around her was a sparkling and translucent water screen. Outside the water screen, there were three masked men in black standing on three sides, constantly waving the daggers in their hands at the water screen. Every time, there would be a "chi chi" sound, and a hole would be cut open in the water curtain. However, the opening would be surrounded by a layer of water vapor, and then the water curtain would return to its original state.
"Dual Practitioner!" Leah was shocked when she saw the flickering blue flames on the dagger.
No wonder those soldiers were gone. They had been killed. However, how did these people manage to sneak into the heavily guarded camp and locate Hua Mulan's exact location? Leah frowned slightly.
It turned out that when Hua Mulan was soaking in the hot water, three dual cultivators suddenly appeared in front of her. In a hurry, the naked Hua Mulan could only form a water barrier to keep the three uninvited guests outside the water barrier, hoping that they would back off.
Hua Mulan was not proficient in demonic arts, and she did not have her weapon with her. However, the three assassins who came to assassinate her were peak warriors who cultivated both martial arts and demonic arts! If Hua Mulan had not been in the water and used a big bucket of water to form a barrier, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Leah was secretly shocked when she saw the water barrier formed by Hua Mulan shrinking continuously. On the mainland, it was rare to see dual cultivators like this. This was because only highly talented people could become dual cultivators after going through strict training. Due to their superior martial arts and terrifying demonic forbidden arts, they were extremely famous in the assassination industry.
Generally speaking, a dual cultivator would be able to complete the mission very well. Seeing three of them here at once showed that they valued Hua Mulan. However, Hua Mulan's performance also showed that she lived up to her title as the Most Powerful God of War. Under such circumstances, she was poisoned, unarmed, and extremely passive. She could still hold on for such a long time in a one-versus-three situation.
Seeing that Hua Mulan could not hold on for much longer, her pinkish face behind the water screen was pale. Large beads of sweat seeped out of her jade-like forehead. The light in her bright phoenix-like eyes dimmed. The water screen seemed to be on the verge of collapsing.
However, the three main attackers seemed to have used up most of their energy. They were all panting, and their sword-wielding hands had become heavy. However, seeing hope, they still tried their best to wield the daggers in their hands. After all, they had the upper hand on the battlefield.
Leah's right hand took out the deadly poison from Burial Flower Valley, the Peach Blossom Burial. She held the powder in her hand.
As long as a person came into contact with this poison, their entire body would itch and fester. Soon, they would turn into minced meat and be blown away by the wind.
A faint wisp of powder began to spread in the tent. Gradually, the three people who were wildly wielding their daggers suddenly felt the fatigue in their bodies increase. At the same time, their bodies felt unusually numb and itchy. They could not help but slow down their wielding of their daggers. The green flames on the tips of their swords also disappeared.
Leah slowly walked in from outside the tent.
She looked coldly at the three black-clothed men.
"Chan 'er …" Hua Mulan called out weakly. Due to the lack of mental strength, the water barrier instantly disappeared. When Leah saw this, she rushed over and hugged Hua Mulan.
"Ah! It's so itchy! "
The three black-clothed men could not hold it in anymore and cried out in pain.
"Mulan, what's going on?" When Leah saw Hua Mulan in this state, a trace of heartache flashed across her eyes.
"You've been poisoned."
Leah's expression was solemn. She immediately took out a stalk of Grass of Immortality and stuffed it into Hua Mulan's mouth.
"Chan 'er, you … I can't eat this …" Hua Mulan knew how rare the Grass of Immortality was. When she saw this, she quickly refused.
"Eat it, Mulan. Be good." Hua Mulan, who was poisoned, could not resist Leah. The entire stalk of Grass of Immortality was forcefully stuffed into Leah's mouth.
At this moment, one of the black-clothed men who was sitting weakly on the ground picked up his dagger with difficulty and stabbed at Leah.
At this moment, Leah, who was burning with anger, waved her hand. Blood spurted out and the black-clothed man's head rolled off. It had been sliced into five pieces by her claws. Leah did not stop there. She waved her claws and chopped off the second masked man's head. When the last masked man saw his comrade who had lost his ability to resist being beheaded, he could not help but scream.
When she saw this terrifying woman walking towards her with her right hand dripping with blood, her face was filled with murderous intent. However, she had no strength left in her body. A trace of fear appeared in her eyes. She shook her head desperately and wanted to retreat.
At this moment, Hua Mulan opened her eyes and shouted, "Leave one alive. We'll interrogate him!" There was a trace of tiredness in her voice.
Leah grunted in acknowledgment.
Then, she brought the masked man to Hua Mulan. He sat beside Hua Mulan and treated her poison.
