Chapter 575: Ambush

's anger surged, she went up personally and slapped Xiao Yu Fu's face.... and Xiao Yufu instinctively dodged to the side.>Ninghua swung her arms in the air, but lost her balance and slammed into the r..."But when I saw you taking them to Miaoling that time, they all looked pretty skilled. I thought they must be from some martial arts school."

Xiao Yuge clapped her forehead, feigning a realization: "Look at me, I completely forgot to tell you. Sister Feng and the others from their previous Ruyi Pavilion weren't like they are now, focusing on tailoring. They used to make a living by performing operas! Plus, Sister Feng came from a鏢局 (martial arts escort agency), so it's natural that the people around her knew martial arts as well. At the time, since you were in such a rush, I just had to find them quickly to fill the numbers. I figured that even if they couldn't help you directly, having them there would at least make a good show of strength."

Her words successfully dispelled Lu Xiangwan's doubts. After all, she could easily find out about these things by asking any female worker at Ruyi Fang. A word or two from one or two people might be similar, but it wouldn't necessarily mean they were colluding beforehand. However, if a large group of people were saying similar things, it was more likely to be true.

"Ge'er, thank you for doing so much for me..." Lu Xiangwan looked guilty: "You helped me so much, and I even doubted you before. I'm sorry..."

"Elder Sister Lu, why are you apologizing You've gone through a huge change in your life all at once. It's normal not to believe everything around you. Rest assured, I promised you I would find your enemy, and I will definitely do it!" Xiao Yuge said, she suspected anyone as normal.

"Gee, thank you!" Lu Xiangwan said, her eyes welling up.

“Well, let’s not dwell on this. Since I call you sister, your matters are my matters, and there's no need for such formality between us.” Xiao Yuge patted her shoulder and pointed ahead, “Come on, Zhaojiazhuang is right ahead.”

"Hmm." Lu Xiangwan looked at her back, a trace of hesitation passing through her eyes.

When they arrived at Zhaojiazhuang, it was indeed as Xiao Yuge had said. The large estate was like a dead city, overgrown with weeds everywhere. It looked like it had been abandoned for a long time and there was no one around.

After making sure there were no potential dangers, Xiao Yuge and her companions quietly crept into the mansion. The buildings were dilapidated and dark everywhere. From the remaining traces, it was clear that the fire had indeed burned the place to the ground overnight.

The two of them searched separately for a while, then came back together. They each shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't found anything. Lu Xiangwan looked disappointed: "It seems someone was deliberately lying to me. What on earth is so annoying about this!"

"Watch out!"

Just then, Xiao Yuge heard the sound of arrows piercing the wind. As someone who trained in concealed weapons, her hearing was naturally exceptional. She didn't have time to think much and immediately pulled Luan Yue towards a nearby cover.

At almost the same time, an arrow shot with force into a nearby pillar!

"Looks like this is a trap! Let's go!" Xiao Yuge realized at that moment that they might have fallen for someone's scheme. She gave Lu Xiangwan a knowing look, planning to rush out first and talk later.

As soon as they stepped out of the gate, they were surrounded by a crowd.

"Who are you" Xiao Yuge sized them up. Dressed in black from head to toe, with their heads covered in black cloth, only their eyes showing, they were indeed mysterious.

"Those who send you to the west!" The leader in black, wielding a long sword, spoke in a raspy, low voice that was utterly unpleasant.

Xiao Yu's song frowned secretly: These people actually used voice-changing pills What are they hiding

"You took my sister Where is my sister" Lu Xiang stepped forward in the evening, pointing at them and asking.

"When you get to the underworld, you'll know," the leader said with a sword pointed at Xiao Yuge and her companions. "Go! Kill them!" At his command, the black-clad men charged towards Xiao Yuge and her group.

"You took my sister, didn't you!"

Lu Xiangwan and Xiao Yuge exchanged a glance, convinced that these people were the murderers who wiped out the Miao Ling clan. They immediately charged forward.

Those in black wielded their swords with ferocity, each strike aimed to kill. They seemed like highly trained assassins. Xiao Yuge and Lu Xiangwan fought back together, though they weren't showing signs of defeat yet, they both knew that the enemy outnumbered them. If this continued, they were destined for defeat. It was clear they needed to fight quickly and decisively.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuge drew her clavicle knife, but strangely, those people seemed to know the power of her clavicle knife. They didn't engage her head-on and chose to avoid her if they could.

Xiao Yuge noticed that Lu Xiangwan beside her seemed to be out of breath. She wanted to go over to help, but the black-clad men around them seemed intent on taking them down one by one, so she deliberately separated them.

These people's martial arts were not weak, their swordsmanship even more formidable. If they wanted to escape and help Sister Lu, it seemed the only option was to use the Life-and-Death Secret Technique. At that moment, she closed her eyes and secretly channeled her internal energy. When she opened her eyes again, everything was a bloody red!

"Everyone, be careful!" The black-clad man at the front stiffened, his heart pounding, and instinctively warned his subordinates.

But, it was too late. Wherever Xiao Yu Ge's palm wind reached, screams echoed, and the situation instantly reversed!

After swiftly repelling the people around her, Xiao Yuge was about to go help Lu Xiangwan. However, just as she took a step forward, the true energy in her dantian suddenly surged wildly within her body. The scene before her flickered back and forth between red and color, and her entire person seemed to have lost control!

Oh no! She forgot that she hasn't been practicing the Qixing Jue given by her master these days because of her health issues. Is she going to lose control now

She immediately stopped and secretly circulated her inner energy, trying to suppress the chaotic qi. At this moment, she couldn't lose control. If she did, with no one to help restrain her, she was afraid she would truly go mad from overindulgence.

On the battlefield, even a small oversight could lead to dire consequences, and in this urgent situation, the leader of the black-clad figures seemed to notice something amiss with Xiao Yuge. Seizing the opportunity, he gave his subordinate a knowing glance, and then, raising his long sword, they both lunged at Xiao Yuge simultaneously!

Xiao Yu's singing voice had already caught a glimpse of the corner of his eye, and he muttered in annoyance: "To attack one after another is truly despicable!"

Thinking to himself, he wore the golden silkworm armor. Even if it was opened for them to stab, it wouldn't matter. So, he didn't intend to pay attention and instead focused on forcefully suppressing the chaotic true qi surging within him.

Unexpectedly!

"Xiao Yu Ge, be careful!" Lu Xiang Wan here didn't know what was wrong with Xiao Yu Ge. Seeing that sword about to hurt Xiao Yu Ge, she panicked and with a palm strike, she knocked away the black-clothed figures surrounding her, then flew to shield Xiao Yu Ge from behind!

And almost at the same time, an unknown weapon flew in from somewhere, deflecting the long sword that was charging straight towards Xiao Yuge!

"Sizzle!" The sound of the sword piercing flesh rang out. marry such a rude and willful woman as his wife.This part is already in English! Did you want me to translate something else Let me know what you need help with."Brother, you actually dared to be fi...
