Chapter 1088 The Importance of a Good Sword!

Shui Yun.A veteran was driving a carriage, Mu Xu sat on the carriage pole, and two other veterans rode horses behind him.A carriage followed, carrying Wan'er and her son, attended by their maidservan...After all, this was a matter of him being the royal bodyguard. He had kept it a secret from everyone for over ten years, and he even brought the prince to Suijin Beach as a beggar.

This was well hidden, never discovered by anyone, and lived peacefully for over a decade.

If we're unlucky and get caught, won't the whole Suijin Beach be plunged into bloodshed...

So, when the Crown Prince returned to the palace and was bestowed with the title of Prince by the Emperor, Mr. Jiang remained at Suijin Beach as before, teaching the children every day, with no significant changes.

Actually, he still felt quite guilty inside.

Fortunately, after two days of curiosity, the villagers seemed to realize he hadn't grown a third head or six arms. He was still the same child king, Mr. Jiang. They returned to their usual friendliness and respect.

At this moment, the Li family ate and drank as usual. No one paid him any special attention or treated him differently.

This, on the contrary, gradually eased his worries and allowed him to relax completely.

He has grown accustomed to life on the Golden Sands, to the peace and joy it offers. He even credits raising the prince here for his decision to settle down for the rest of his days in this tranquil paradise.

If the villagers were to blame and ostracize him, he wouldn't be able to stay here. Wouldn't he have to wander around homeless

Luckily, luckily...

In the courtyard, a gentle breeze rustled through. The insects, who should have been the stars of the night, were completely overshadowed by the laughter and chatter from inside the house, not even making a sound.

The moon hung lonely in the sky, and even the stars seemed to be shirking their duty, nowhere to be found.

At the same moment, at a certain place in Jiangbei, Ye Shan slowly drew his long sword from his waist and coldly stared at the five or six black-clothed men opposite him.

He asked coldly, "Who are you and why are you blocking my way"

The leader in black remained silent for a moment before replying, "Everyone acts according to their own master and carries out their orders. There's no need to ask so many questions."

Another man in black also laughed arrogantly, "You're going to die soon. Knowing this much is useless. Do you want the King of Hell to deliver your message"

Ye Shan's pupils constricted slightly, and she suddenly stepped forward, slashing out with a fierce blow.

That arrogant man in black must be very confident in his own abilities to have dared to block the way.

As a result, the long sword in his hand was snapped in two with a crack.

He was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He couldn't believe it, and when he tried to dodge, it was already too late.

Ye Shan's long sword sliced right through him, taking half his body!

Blood spurted, and the two halves of the body fell to the ground. It happened so quickly that everyone was caught off guard.

Ye Shan quickly retreated, wiping the blood from his blade. His heart felt a little steadier.

Back then, the young lady suddenly took out a bunch of strange things, claiming she wanted to make weapons. He suspected it was just childish mischief at first.

But surprisingly, the weapons crafted from those strange things were simply unparalleled in quality.

At any time, against any blade wielded by the Heavenly Martial, he has never lost.

Hard steel meets hard steel, and it is always the other's blade that breaks.

Such a miraculous tool, it must have saved many people from death countless times.

Everyone who obtained a weapon, except for those like the young masters of the Li family who rarely used them, cherished it as much as their life, wanting to hold it even when they slept.

He also carried it with him at all times, never letting go.

To be frank, this time, I have to rely on this "old friend" again to make it through.

"Have you decided If so, answer me, who sent you!" Yemont tested, "Whoever explains clearly, I can spare his life."

Several men in black hesitated for a moment, but still didn't speak, charging forward together.

Ye Shan could only abandon the investigation and directly engaged in battle.

It has to be said that the several men in black are all good fighters, and their cooperation is also tacit.

Yamasaki could protect himself, but he had no chance to counterattack for the moment.

If this went on, he was sure to lose because of the overwhelming numbers. So, gritting his teeth, he risked a slash across his back and pulled out a round ball from his waist, smashing it hard onto the ground.

The moment the sphere shattered, a massive amount of white smoke erupted.

Several men in black, caught off guard, quickly covered their mouths and noses with their arms.

Yejian seized the opportunity to swing two swords, felling two of the black-clad men.

The black-clothed man hastily retreated, only to discover that Mount Ye was completely unaffected.

The leader in black cursed angrily, "Damn it, we've been tricked!"

White smoke is completely harmless, it's just a ruse.

Ye Shan quickly popped a detoxification pill into his mouth. Although the wound on his back wasn't deep, he still had to guard against the possibility of poison on the opponent's blade.

Three men in black, enraged by their humiliation, charged up again.

This time, both sides fought with no holds barred, every move aimed at killing.

At the end, Ye Shan, relying on her superior skills, stood firm.

But having taken down the last man in black, he was also sporting four or five wounds.

Before he could catch his breath, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from afar...

Ye Shan's face instantly changed color, he turned his head, jumped onto his warhorse, and whipped it.

Besides the Bei zheng army and barbarians, there was another cavalry unit from Jiangbei - the mysterious force that had originally attempted to seize military supplies.

At this moment, the Manchus were driven to the vicinity of the border, and the Northern Expeditionary Army had completely suppressed them, making it impossible for them to appear nearby.

Then the people gathering around must definitely be a hidden grain-snatching squad!

Boom!

One rider led the way, a hundred cavalrymen following in his wake. Under this moonlight, a pursuit unfolded.

Hesyaman would keep turning back, his brows furrowing deeper and deeper.

These people must have come for him, it's not a coincidence, otherwise they wouldn't be biting so hard.

This way, he will surely be caught. He'll either fight to the death or capture someone alive.

He wasn't afraid of death, nor of being captured. What could he do He had to complete the task his master had given him!

At that moment, a black shadow suddenly jumped down from the tree beside him and landed steadily behind him.

Ye Shan was startled and instinctively reached out to push the person down, but then heard the person call out, "Mountain Uncle, it's me!"

"Mu Xu, what are you doing here" Ye Shan was both surprised and delighted, then turned angry, "There are too many enemies behind you, quickly dismount and hide!"

"But Mu Xu refused and laughed, "Uncle Shan, you just run forward, the rest is up to me!"

As he spoke, he turned directly to face Ye Shan, their backs pressed together. Then, he unbuckled his belt and tied the two of them together.

After making sure he wouldn't fall, Mu Xu directly took out a small bag from his bosom and grabbed a handful of balls, throwing them out.

The horse team behind was galloping wildly, without any chance to stop.

Therefore, as the sphere exploded, the white mist that spread out instantly caught dozens of soldiers in its path.

The horse was shedding tears, and the knight on its back couldn't stop coughing. He instinctively pulled on the reins to dodge.

Because of this delay, the companions behind who were still accelerating were blocked and inevitably collided.

Mu Xu drew his longbow from his waist and, under the cover of night, shot several arrows in quick succession. He brought down several knights with his shots.

And taking this opportunity, Mount Ye had already run very far on horseback. It would definitely be impossible for the cavalry to catch up!

The pursuit under the night sky became a solitary ride.

After running for half an hour, they were sure no one was chasing them anymore. The two of them and their horse stopped, finding a hidden mountain hollow to rest in.
