Chapter 917: Yu Jin’s Rage (2)
But even if she was late, Nan Hua didn't care that much.
She's not a saint.
Those children were unrelated to her. The only reason why she wanted to stop the project was because it would affect the war in the future if she didn't. And that it would put Fei Yang Kingdom in a more difficult situation.
That was all.
Swish!
At this time, Yu Jin had reached the location where she met with Nan Hua just not long ago. The smell of blood could be sensed very clearly and it ticked her greatly. Her eyes swept to the side as she could hear the faint sound of metal clashing.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
"You won't be able to get away!" Ye Jian roared angrily.
Yu Jin didn't hesitate and rushed over. Her eyes immediately caught onto the two men who were attacking Ye Jian with their blades. Blood seeped out of Ye Jian's left shoulder as it seemed that she was caught unprepared by these people.
Bang!
Kicking the ground hard, Yu Jin dashed forward. Before the man could even reacted, she had tackled him to the ground. In that very moment, she could see his red eyes and indifferent gaze.
Her hand took out a dagger as she slashed it against the man's neck.
It didn't even take one second for her to finish everything.
Everything she did was so fast that no one would be able to follow her movements with their eyes.
"Yu Jin!" Ye Jian shouted happily while bending her body.
Swish!
The sword narrowly avoided her vital points. She turned around swiftly and several knives appeared in her hand.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
"Damn it!"
The man was too fast!
Her flying knives were useless against opponent who were too fast. This made Ye Jian felt that she was facing Yu Jin. After all, no matter how accurate she usually be, she would never be able to hit Yu Jin squarely with her flying knives.
She was too fast and alert.
Swish!
Yu Jin dashed towards the man. Her eyes were filled rage as she stretched her hand and grabbed the man's neck.
"Who do you think you are? Touching what's mine?" Yu Jin snarled.
At the side, Ye Jian trembled slightly. Yu Jin rarely got angry, but whenever she did get angry, she would be so scary as she was unable to control her rage. It always happened when someone crossed her bottom line and touched her people using despicable means.
Unfortunately, there were several people who would always challenge patience by doing just that.
Screech! Bam!
Her fingers severed the man's neck from its body. Her eyes were burning with baleful flame of rage as she could sense that there were more people and not just those two.
Thud!
Ye Jian was unable to hold on anymore. She had lost too much blood from the fight just now and her body felt rather weak. Her right hand was pressing onto her wound on her left shoulder to stop the bleeding.
"Where are the others?"
"They're heading inside! The elders are trying to stop them."
Inside?
Yu Jin instantly knew that these people were aiming for her villages and her people. While the men were all extremely powerful because of their routine training and numerous experiences, the women and children were the opposite.
They needed the men to protect them.
There were naturally guards that she had left behind to guard her people, but they wouldn't be the match of these men.
"Damn you Zhang Xu Kingdom!"
"Damn you Prime Minister Lei!"
Cursing angrily, Yu Jin rushed towards the inner mountain. Her body was pushed to the limit as she wanted to reach there before it was too late.
On the other hand, Ye Jian could only rip part of her robe to treat her wound. If she didn't do anything, she would die anytime soon and would just become a burden. No matter what, she couldn't let that happened.
Swish!
Clang! Clang! Clang!
"Uooooooooooo!"
"Stop them!"
The shouts of people from the front increased Yu Jin's rage. She rushed forward and found several people were there. Her men were wounded as they were trying to block while there were three left who were carrying weapon and looked warily at the three intruders.
The three intruders were not idle either.
One of them was holding onto a woman, a villager who unfortunately passed through the area when they came.
"Queen!" one of her men shouted.
Yu Jin looked at the woman in that man's hand and her eyes were burning even more intensely. She really wanted to rip them all apart until there was nothing left behind.
"I'll kill her!" The first intruder shouted while looking at Yu Jin.
"You're really brave, intruders from Zhang Xu Kingdom." Yu Jin didn't immediately move to help the woman. She motioned for the woman to stay calm as she continued to speak, "Do you really think that you'll be able to get the agreement by taking hostages using these unstable warriors?"
The second intruder sneered. "The envoy will come soon, Mountain Queen. We have been giving favorable terms for you from time to time. What makes you think that it's not enough?"
"Is it the Emperor's order or is it Prime Minister Lei's order?" Yu Jin asked sharply.
The other people there inhaled sharply.
While no one talked about the political matter so openly, it didn't mean that everyone was blind to the situation. The current emperor of Zhang Xu Kingdom was someone who liked luxury and women. He barely paid any attention to the matter of the nation.
If not because of Prime Minister Lei holding the power and balance of the court along with many other talented people, there was no way Zhang Xu Kingdom would last under the barrage of attacks from other kingdoms.
"It's the future emperor's order."
Future emperor.
Meaning that the one who gave the order was actually one of the few princes in Zhang Xu Kingdom.
It might be enough for some people.
But for Yu Jin… it was far from enough.
