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

The Blackstone Mine is located in a huge valley surrounded by mountains on three sides.

This place is less of a mine and more of a giant open-air prison.

Thousands of miners, barely clothed, were crammed into makeshift shacks made of mud and thatch at the foot of the mountain, treated like livestock.

The air was thick with the stench of coal ash, sweat, and despair, which fermented and produced a nauseating stench.

The night was now deep.

The miners, having toiled all day, were fast asleep, completely unaware of the impending storm.

On the other side of the valley, in the barracks of the overseers and thugs, a completely different scene unfolded.

The barracks were brightly lit, filled with the sounds of drinking games, shouting, and women's laughter, creating a noisy atmosphere.

A foreman, his face flushed from drinking, was pinning a prostitute down and working hard on her.

Just as he was preparing to launch a final, fierce attack on the enemy.

A sudden chill ran down my neck.

He instinctively reached out and touched it, but what he touched was a warm, viscous liquid.

The foreman lowered his head in bewilderment.

He saw that his body was still standing in the same place, but his head rolled down to his feet with a "thud".

The sweet, metallic scent of blood splattered all over the woman's body and face, and the scream that was about to burst forth was forever silenced by a dagger stuck in her throat.

Almost at the same time.

"Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!"

A series of muffled thuds as sharp blades pierced flesh echoed throughout the surrounding barracks.

Those Green Dragon Society members on night watch didn't even have time to utter a scream before their throats were slit by sharp blades emerging from the darkness.

The slaughter began.

Qin Ruxue stood in the shadows outside the barracks, the slender Lianhua sword in her hand now stained with an eerie crimson.

She stared at the still noisy barracks before her, her beautiful phoenix eyes filled with no pity, only icy killing intent.

Qin Ruxue slowly raised her left hand.

Behind them, the elite troops who had just completed their sentry duty had already regrouped like ghosts.

Silently, they raised their powerful crossbows, the sharp bolts gleaming with a ghostly blue light in the moonlight.

"put!"

Qin Ruxue suddenly swung her hand down.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh—!

A hundred deathly preludes tore through the night sky, transforming into a dense rain of arrows that poured down upon the lit windows and doors!

"ah--!"

"Who goes there!"

"Enemy attack!!"

"Pfft!"

"Ah! My hand! My hand has been shot through!"

A series of piercing screams shattered the clamor of the camp, and countless members of the Azure Dragon Society who were enjoying themselves were suddenly nailed to their beds and tables by this rain of deadly arrows.

The blood quickly stained the window paper.

The entire camp erupted in chaos.

"What's going on!"

"Who the hell dares to mess with us?!"

The surviving gang members rushed out of the room in a panic, some without even having time to pull up their pants.

But what awaited them was a second, even denser rain of arrows!

"Stay calm! Everyone stay calm!"

A one-eyed minor leader, brandishing a large knife, attempted to organize an effective resistance.

"They don't have many of them! Follow me and charge out, kill them!"

However, before he could finish speaking...

A crossbow bolt pierced his open mouth with pinpoint accuracy, and as it went through the back of his head, it brought out a spray of scalding blood.

"Bang!"

The one-eyed man's corpse fell heavily to the ground, and the little morale that had just been gathered collapsed instantly.

Everyone was completely thrown into chaos, running around the camp like headless flies.

Just then.

Qin Ruxue's voice rang out coldly.

"Charge!"

"Kill formation!"

One hundred former members of the Qin family army instantly put away their crossbows and switched to blades.

They were divided into groups of ten.

Shields, spears, and swords each performed their duties, instantly forming ten battle formations exuding an aura of death.

Ten high-speed meat grinders rolled into the chaotic camp from all directions.

The blade flashed.

Blood spurted out.

Under Qin Ruxue's command, the Ten Directions Annihilation Formation revealed its most terrifying fangs.

The ten smaller formations respond to each other, and can separate and combine freely.

Sometimes it transforms into a sharp dagger, instantly tearing apart the chaotic crowd.

Sometimes it transforms into a tightening noose, strangling and annihilating any enemy that tries to resist.

Those Qinglong Society members who usually acted arrogantly and domineeringly were as fragile as paper in front of these well-coordinated and decisive veterans of the Qin family army.

Their supposed ferocity appears both laughable and pathetic in the face of this absolute battle formation and discipline.

"No! Don't kill me! I surrender!"

One of the gang members was so frightened that he dropped his knife and knelt down to beg for mercy.

What greeted him, however, was a cold glint of a blade.

Heads fell to the ground.

Qin Ruxue's voice echoed throughout the camp, cold and devoid of any emotion.

"Leave no one alive from the Azure Dragon Society!"

These words completely extinguished the last glimmer of hope among the Green Dragon Gang members.

They've completely gone mad.

Either you die or I die!

"Let's fight them!"

"Killing one is enough to break even, killing two is a bonus!"

Dozens of desperate men, their eyes bloodshot and driven by their will to survive, howled as they charged toward the nearest ten-man squad.

However, what awaited them was despair forged in steel.

The ten guards instantly changed formation.

The outer shield bearers formed an impenetrable iron wall, and when swords and blades struck it, only a few sparks flew.

The spearmen in the inner circle protruded their deadly spears from the gaps in their shields, reaping lives with precision and efficiency, like venomous snakes flicking their tongues.

puff!

puff!

Blood splattered like rain.

In just a few breaths, dozens of desperados were all turned into cold corpses.

Qin Ruxue stood at the center of the formation, coldly observing everything.

Her bright and pretty face remained completely unmoved.

This is war.

You die, I live.

……

at the same time.

The other end of the mine.

Lin Mo's figure, like a wisp of smoke merging into the darkness, silently passed through layers of courtyards, reaching the very heart of the place.

The Glass Eyes have already been activated.

In his view, the whole world had become a completely different place.

On the ground, red light strips representing patrol routes crisscrossed.

In the shadows, white dots representing sentries emanated rhythmic heartbeats.

He, on the other hand, was like a chess piece moving outside the chessboard, leisurely avoiding all the lines and intersections.

The journey was smooth and unobstructed.

Soon, a detached two-story building appeared before him.

Flying eaves and brackets, carved beams and painted rafters.

Compared to the shacks of the surrounding miners, this place was like a palace in the sky.

This is the residence of Li Qing, the leader of the Azure Dragon Society.

The small building was brightly lit, with guards every three steps and sentries every five steps, making it heavily guarded.

Those who stand guard here are Li Qing's most trusted bodyguards and the most elite group of thugs in the Green Dragon Society.

Lin Mo's figure stopped in the last shadow in front of the small building.

Immediately afterwards, he took out the [Thousand Changes Mask] and put it on his face.
