Chapter 383 Killing on the spot is also acceptable

"Finished?"

His eyes reflected Qu Ying's smiling face.

Li Qing let out a soft breath, her fair wrist flicked, and the spear left a sharp afterimage as it pierced straight into Qu Ying's waist and abdomen.

A blinding flash of lightning shot upwards, cleaving through the man's body and finally emerging from his throat!
This military strategist, a match for ten thousand men, suddenly attacked, his movements so swift that even Pei Xia couldn't see them clearly.

Before anyone could even be shocked, they discovered that Qu Ying's torn remains had not shed a single drop of blood.

"It's time for me to leave. It would be a real problem if that old bastard Zhou Tian caught me."

He was perched on the tip of Hu Hou's spear, and politely nodded to Pei Xia and Li Qing.

Then the light and shadow distorted, the human figure vanished, revealing a long, black snake that was pinned to Li Qing's spear.

“An avatar.” Pei Xia narrowed her eyes slightly.

The fact that Qu Ying was able to escape using this method proves that his true form is at least outside Jiangcheng Mountain; otherwise, he would not have been able to escape.

This level of cultivation and calculation ability of a master is at least at the seventh level.

Moreover, it must be assumed that Qu Ying was not affected by the Qin land's spiritual energy; otherwise... it's hard to imagine.

Such magical transformations naturally astonish those who have never witnessed them, while those who have are even more amazed by the intricacies involved.

The only one who remained true to himself and remained calm was probably Li Qing.

She must have anticipated this before she came.

The female general shook off the long snake from the tip of her spear, smoothed her hair, lowered her eyes slightly, and looked at herself with a complicated expression, tinged with helplessness.

Pei Xia didn't dare to speak to her and quickly rescued Jiang Shu from the side.

"Are you alright?" Pei Xia asked.

Jiang Shu emerged from the jar, still sprawled on the ground, and said with distress, "I was given the medicine and can't move, but otherwise I'm fine."

Pei Xia breathed a sigh of relief. Falling into the hands of those beasts in Jiangcheng Mountain, she was already incredibly lucky to be alive and well.

After leaving Feng Yao to look after her, Pei Xia stood up and turned to look at Luo Xiaojin.

The destruction of Jiangcheng Mountain is a foregone conclusion. Li Qing has already arrived in person, so there is really no chance of reversing the situation.

However, Pei Xia was extremely unwilling to get involved in these warlord struggles.

Just take what I overheard at Wangjiang Tower. Qu Ying didn't seem to be afraid of Li Qing, the one who could kill ten thousand men, but was quite wary of Zhou Tian, ​​the old man who was the ship captain.

If you think about it, Li Qing, Zhou Tian, ​​Suiyu Ren... it seems like I've been inexplicably dragged into the center of some major event again.

No, no, we've finally escaped this mess, we absolutely can't cause ourselves any more trouble.

He looked at Luo Xiaojin, reminding her that she should keep her promise and let them go down the mountain.

Of course, at the same time, his hand was also on the medicine bottle in his pocket.

The situation has changed. Luo Xiaojin was previously at the mercy of others, so Pei Xia can certainly negotiate with her.

However, encountering Li Qing herself was completely unexpected for Pei Xia. If Luo Xiaojin were to change her mind, Pei Xia would have to have a backup plan.

For example, how to symbolically resist, demonstrate one's own value, and then smoothly surrender to Li Qing.

Luo Xiaojin certainly noticed Pei Xia's gaze, but at this moment, all she wanted to do was sneer.

The deal that Pei Xia initially proposed was never valid.

Luo Xiaojin was willing to play the fool because she had her own agenda.

No matter how much Pei Xia glared at her, Luo Dubu remained unmoved.

The entire palace fell silent for a moment, until a low, whimpering sob was heard.

It's Su Yan.

She collapsed limply onto the long steps of the bathtub, her eyes glazed as she gazed in the direction where Qu Ying had disappeared, murmuring, "Husband...husband..."

Each call was a tender, yearning cry.

Li Qing was getting annoyed. The general walked to the door, put down his spear, sat on the threshold, and turned to order, "Gag him."

Pei Xia and Luo Xiaojin both took a moment to react before the first to respond, "Yes!"

Ma Shilin darted forward faster than anyone else, rushing forward and slapping Su Yan across the face: "What's all the noise about?!"

Then he tore off her wedding dress and stuffed it into her mouth.

Otherwise, why would they be able to act as lackeys?

Li Qing wanted some peace and quiet, so no one in the room dared to make a sound.

She sat on the threshold, gazing at Jiangcheng Mountain in the distance. Shouts of battle occasionally erupted from various parts of the mountain, but they soon subsided.

A battle-hardened elite force, led by a skilled military strategist, is gradually completing the annihilation of Jiangcheng Mountain.

Despite being a powerful faction in Eastern Qin, they were ultimately nothing more than a bunch of beasts who had gathered together. When disaster struck, they had no cohesion whatsoever and were utterly helpless against the well-trained elite Tiger Marquis troops.

Even the most skilled fighters could not possibly defeat Chen Qianye in Wangjiang Tower.

No one expected that Qu Ying would bring about a wedding, and that wedding would destroy half of the Eastern Qin sect's territory.

The mountain breeze ruffled Tiger Marquis's hair. She sat on the threshold, stretched out her legs, put her hands on her hips, and sighed, "He's finally got what he wanted."

Qu Ying did indeed help Li Qing a lot objectively. Without him, it would have taken a lot of Li Qing's energy to clean up Hong Zongbi's sect forces in Hebei.

This wedding banquet in Jiangcheng Mountain has opened a breach for Li Qing in the seemingly impregnable land of Dongqin.

But it is precisely this breach that will further exacerbate Li Xu's unease. He thinks that his nephew will definitely become more dependent on the Broken Jade Man, and more dependent on... that Dragon Cauldron.

"Ugh..." Li Qing stretched her body. "This is so annoying."

Pei Xia secretly watched, and realized that Luo Xiaojin was indeed a despicable person, with absolutely no intention of speaking up for her.

They might even be plotting how to catch me.

He reached out and rubbed Jiang Shu's knee, asking softly, "Can you run now?"

The effects of the medicine were slowly wearing off. Jiang Shu subtly bent and stretched his leg, nodding at Pei Xia.

In fact, ever since Pei Xia met Li Qing, whether or not she could escape was no longer up to her.

He secretly glanced at the white-clad general sitting by the door, now hoping that she didn't even have eyes for Pei Xia.

Unfortunately, before he could even move, Luo Xiaojin, who had been keeping a close eye on him, immediately shouted, "General, our Princess's wanted criminal is still here!"

Tsk, what a jerk.

Li Qing turned around and looked at Pei Xia. Her phoenix eyes were deep in thought for a moment, as if she had thought of something. She raised her hand and beckoned to Pei Xia: "Come here."

Pei Xia sighed inwardly and could only get up and walk over.

When it comes to mental fortitude, Pei Xia is not afraid. He dares to scold Luo Xian, so Li Qing is nothing to him.

However, considering the strength involved, he had no choice but to put on a smile and call out, "General."

Their eyes met, and the sharpness of weapons and the energy of swords clashed. Pei Xia was slightly taken aback, while Li Qing narrowed his eyes.

The general nodded, withdrew his gaze, and asked in a light tone, "Why didn't you kill Luo Xiaojin?"

Luo Xiaojin tensed up instantly: "General?!"

Pei Xia never expected Li Qing to say something like that.

Wasn't she a warlord who was aided by the Northern Military City?
Pei Xia was surprised and hesitated for a moment before replying, "I want her to help me clear a path and evacuate from your troops surrounding the mountain, so as to avoid being chased and killed if I try to break out by force."

Why should she listen to you?

"She only dared to disobey me because she met you."

Li Qing nodded repeatedly: "That makes some sense."

Pei Xia carefully considered Li Qing's tone, his hand tucked into his sleeve as he squeezed his patrol sword, and tentatively said, "Killing on the spot is also an option."

Li Qing raised an eyebrow and looked at Pei Xia. After a moment of eye contact, she suddenly laughed and said, "Never mind, it's not appropriate in front of me. Let's do it next time, when I'm not around."
