Many children, many blessings; a stunningly beautiful wife is given to you right from the start.

"not enough."

Lin Mo shook his head.

Qin Ruxue was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously gripped the hilt of her sword, a surge of unyielding pride welling up inside her.

"My Ten Directions Annihilation Formation can defeat a thousand troops with just a hundred men!"

"I know."

Lin Mo did not argue with her about the power of the formation.

He simply stepped forward and, under Qin Ruxue's stern gaze, grasped her hand, which was taut with fighting spirit.

The sudden warmth made Qin Ruxue's body tremble violently.

That familiar, domineering aura that belonged only to Lin Mo enveloped her unreasonably.

Qin Ruxue's rebuttal, which was on the tip of her tongue, was abruptly stuck in her throat.

"I know that Second Sister's skills are unparalleled in the world."

Lin Mo leaned down and whispered in her ear.

The warm breath ruffled the stray hairs at her temples, causing a fine blush to rise on her sensitive earlobes.

"But what I want is not a Pyrrhic victory."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Mo lowered his voice even further and repeated to Qin Ruxue, word for word, the information he had extracted from the scout's mind, including the Black Stone Mine's defense map, patrol routes, and the locations of hidden sentries.

Of course, he did not explain the source of the intelligence, only saying that it was "interrogated" from a spy.

The more Qin Ruxue listened, the wider her phoenix eyes, burning with anger, opened.

Shocked.

incredible.

Such detailed information... it's as if someone had meticulously carved the entire structure of the Blackstone Mine into Lin Mo's mind, stroke by stroke.

How was this determined?

"Now."

Lin Mo released her hand, took a half step back, and stared intently at her.

"Do you think that's enough?"

"That's enough!"

Qin Ruxue's breathing became hot.

At this moment, a terrifying light called "hunting" erupted from those phoenix eyes.

With this map in hand, the so-called five hundred outlaws are nothing more than a flock of lambs locked in cages, waiting to be slaughtered.

"With this intelligence, let alone a hundred people!"

Qin Ruxue's voice was resolute.

"Give me fifty elite soldiers! Tonight, I'll bring you Li Qing's head!"

"it is good."

Lin Mo's smile vanished instantly, his gaze turning as cold as a knife.

"We'll take a hundred elite troops with us, and the rest will defend Dingbei Prefecture to the death."

"The operation will take place tonight at midnight."

"tonight?"

Qin Ruxue was stunned again; she was taken aback by Lin Mo's decisive action.

That's too fast.

"Speed ​​is of the essence in war."

Lin Mo's voice was devoid of any emotion.

"We're taking action now because we're exploiting an information gap."

"I want to put a knife to Li Qing's neck while he is still happily lurking in Dingbei Prefecture, thinking he is my spy."

Qin Ruxue nodded.

Lin Mo is right.

fast.

quasi.

ruthless.

This is the key to victory.

"Okay! I'll go gather the men right away!"

Qin Ruxue exuded an aura of impatient killing intent.

She turned to leave.

But Lin Mo called out to her.

"etc."

Lin Mo looked at Qin Ruxue's beautiful face, which was filled with excitement and high fighting spirit, and suddenly smiled.

"Second Mistress, what's the rush?"

He pointed to the blazing sun overhead, his gaze becoming intriguing.

"The sword is a fine sword, but before it's drawn to drink blood, it needs to be tempered and sharpened, doesn't it?"

"Come on, follow me back to Tianxin Pavilion."

"Before you set off on your campaign, let me first give you... a good 'sharpening of your sword'."

"Sharpening the sword?"

Qin Ruxue was taken aback, clearly not understanding the deeper meaning of these threatening words.

Lin Mo didn't give her a chance to react. He grabbed Qin Ruxue's supple waist and half-forcefully led her toward Tianxin Pavilion.

……

The night was as dark as ink, and a deadly intent lurked beneath.

child time.

One hundred elite guards dressed in black, like silent statues, assembled at the back gate of Dingbei Prefecture.

There was not a sound, only a suppressed murderous aura swirling in the darkness.

A small door quietly opened.

Qin Ruxue, dressed in a striking red outfit, stepped out of the door.

Her long hair was tied up high, giving her a dashing and heroic appearance.

But her already stunning face now radiated an alluring glow, and her brows and eyes carried a hint of lingering languor and charm.

Those were the marks left after Lin Mo had just "polished" them.

Lin Mo followed closely behind.

He looked at the hundred-person team before him, silent and disciplined, and nodded in satisfaction.

"Set off."

There was no unnecessary nonsense, just a single, cold word.

A hundred dark figures instantly disappeared into the night, speeding towards the Black Stone Mine outside the city.

At the very front of the group, Lin Mo and Qin Ruxue walked side by side.

"Husband, are you really not nervous?"

Qin Ruxue turned her head and looked at the relaxed man beside her, who had remained relaxed throughout, and couldn't help but ask.

This is the stronghold of 500 people that was raided. How can he be as calm as if he were going out for a walk?

"What's there to be nervous about?"

Lin Mo grinned, revealing a set of white teeth.

"With Second Sister, the sharpest sword in the world, by my side, what do I have to fear?"

"Besides, tonight we are the hunters, and they are the prey."

"Only the prey has the right to feel nervous."

Seeing Lin Mo's calm demeanor, Qin Ruxue felt her own tension dissipate considerably.

She had to admit that this man possessed an innate, calming charm.

It's as if even if the sky were to fall, he could still smile and hold it up for you.

One hour later.

As a faint smell of coal ash filled the air, Lin Mo raised his hand.

The line stopped instantly, falling into complete silence.

"The valley entrance is just ahead."

Lin Mo lowered his voice and glanced at Qin Ruxue.

"Proceed according to plan."

Qin Ruxue nodded heavily, her expression becoming serious.

Suddenly, Lin Mo leaned over and gently pecked Qin Ruxue's cool lips.

"I'm leaving, my wife."

"you!"

Qin Ruxue's cheeks burned, and she glared at him, both embarrassed and annoyed.

She wanted to scold Lin Mo for being "improper," but the words that came out were just a very soft "hmm."

Qin Ruxue turned around deftly and made a few silent gestures to the two trusted captains behind her.

The two squads immediately broke away from the main team.

Like a gecko, they clung to the mountainside and disappeared into the shadows on both sides of the valley, heading to eliminate both visible and hidden sentries.

Time passed, second by second.

Sudden.

Two short cuckoo calls came from the darkness in the distance.

That's a signal.

Successful.

A glint flashed in Qin Ruxue's eyes, and she gave the order again.

"Second team, block their retreat!"

"Team Three, follow me!"

Another small team dispersed like ghosts, circling around to the back of the valley.

Qin Ruxue, on the other hand, personally led her thirty most elite men straight to the core camp deep in the valley—the barracks of the overseers and thugs.

Everyone began to move, and Lin Mo's figure disappeared from the spot.

He has only one goal.

The Azure Dragon King, Li Qing.

Teammates are responsible for clearing out minions.

BOSS, I'll solo this.
