"Don't linger in battle, kill your way out!"
Lin Shu saw more than a dozen people forming a group and charging forward. The person in the lead was obviously the leader of this group. He was very skilled. In the blink of an eye, he had injured a few cavalrymen and broke out of the encirclement.
Lin Shu had finally found the other party and took the initiative to attack. How could he let him escape just like that? With a loud roar, he suddenly threw the broadsword in his hand. The blade whistled and went straight for the back of the person. At the same time, he jumped up and stepped on the bamboo with the tip of his foot. With the rebound force of the bamboo, he was like a cannonball that had escaped from the barrel. In the blink of an eye, he had crossed a distance of more than ten feet and was within five feet of the person's back.
The man's body slowed down as he knocked away the incoming saber. He did not expect Lin Shu to be so fast. He was shocked and suddenly shot out a few poisonous needles.
The moon was dark and the wind was strong. It was almost impossible to see one's fingers in the bamboo forest, not to mention this kind of poisonous needle as thin as hair. Lin Shu only saw the other party's movement and instinctively dodged to the side. She felt a slight fluctuation in the air on her cheek and vaguely felt something fly away from her cheek. She was shocked and knew that it was a hidden weapon like a poisonous needle."That was close!"
It was difficult to guard against such a poisonous needle under such circumstances. If Lin Shu had not reacted instinctively from the battlefield, she would have been hit by the poisonous needle immediately. With the nature of these assassins, the poisonous needle must have been fed with a very strong poison. Once hit, even if she did not die, she would have lost a layer of skin.
Lin Shu was shocked and furious. She snapped a bamboo beside her and stabbed it at the man's back.
The bamboo was luxuriant, and when it was waved, it was almost airtight. Even if the other party wanted to release poison needles, they would not be able to penetrate this copper wall made of bamboo leaves.
The other party obviously did not expect Lin Shu to use such a method to block his poison needle. Seeing that the poison needle was ineffective, he could only turn around and escape. The nearby area had long been surrounded by Lin Shu's cavalry. At this time, two more cavalry charged over. Although they were injured by that person, their bodies slowed down. Lin Shu had already caught up to him within 20 feet.
"Ha!"
With a furious roar, Lin Shu threw down the bamboo in her hand. Like a fierce tiger, she pounced and punched an assassin in the face. The assassin didn't even have time to scream before his entire face was smashed into pieces and he died completely.
Lin Shu snatched the long sword from the man's hand and slashed at the man's back.
The man suddenly turned over, but he did not block. With a roar, his body followed the sword momentum. He completely ignored the long sword that was aimed at his chest and desperately stabbed towards Lin Shu's throat.
A cold light kept enlarging in front of Lin Shu's eyes. The opponent's sword was extremely fast, but Lin Shu seemed to have expected it. He suddenly bent his knees slightly, and the sword that was originally aimed at his throat became aimed at his mouth.
"Clang!"
Lin Shu's body shook slightly. Her teeth had already firmly bitten the opponent's sword. At the same time, the sword in her hand pierced through the opponent's chest.
The man looked at him with a strange expression. After a moment, he suddenly let out a miserable laugh and said with a ferocious expression,"You won't live. I'll wait for you!”
"Hmph, it's not up to you to decide whether I can live or not!”Lin Shu knew the nature of these assassins. If their first attack failed, they would immediately retreat. Once they were captured, they would also bite the poison sac in their mouths and commit suicide. Knowing that they could not catch him alive, she decided to kill him. With a shake of her sword, her internal energy completely shattered the internal organs of the person. She turned around and pounced to the side.
The chaotic battle lasted for less than a quarter of an hour. However, these assassins were extremely fierce and attacked with all their might, heavily injuring the Blade Cavalry. In just one battle, seventeen of the Blade Cavalry died and seventy-six were heavily injured. This was also because of the powerful defense of the Blade Set that Lin Shu had given them. Although many of them were attacked in their vital parts, they were protected by the armor and only suffered serious injuries.
However, in this battle, more than 200 assassins were killed. Even if some of them were seriously injured and could not resist, they all bit the poison sacs in their mouths and committed suicide.
Lin Shu checked the battlefield and ordered people to clean up the battlefield. She cremated the bodies of her dead brothers and sent their ashes home. Only then did she rush back to the posthouse overnight.
Since then, nothing else happened along the way. Lin Shu guessed that perhaps the other party had retreated, or perhaps there was a bigger plot waiting for him. However, Lin Shu was not in the mood to think about these questions because he had finally arrived at Jinling.
When they arrived at Jinling, it was already evening and the sky was getting dark. Lin Shu and Ma Jingcong bid farewell on the street. Ma Jingcong returned to the palace to report, while Lin Shu went home to rest and listen to the announcement the next day.
The Lin Residence was not far from the Imperial Palace. It was a huge residence. In Jinling, there were only a handful of people who could have such a large residence. After all, Lin Xie had helped Emperor Liang ascend the throne, and Lin Shu's mother was Emperor Liang's younger sister, Princess Jin Yang. Her status was revered.
By the time Lin Shu returned home with her personal guards, the sky was already dark. She saw that the main door of the Lin Manor was tightly shut. Lin Shu quickly dismounted and knocked on the door.
"Bang bang bang!" The heavy knocking sound spread far away.
Not long after, a servant inside the door shouted,"Coming, coming, who is it?"
"Open the door, it's Lin Shu!" Lin Shu shouted in joy.
"Lin Shu? Young Master?"
The servant's surprised cry came from the door. As the door creaked open, Lin Shu saw the servant's face full of surprise and shouted,"It's really Young Master. Young Master is back, Young Master is back!”
In the next moment, the entire Lin Manor became lively.
