The Empress Is Gigolo 418 Hitting An Iron Plate

With great difficulty, they managed to find a grove and parked the carriage and cows by the roadside. Ren Baqian then came back with some dry firewood he had picked up.

The roars of wild animals could be heard and from time to time. There were also fragmented noises coming from the underbush, but nothing could be seen.

"We are only left with steamed buns…" Ren Baqian took out some steamed buns from the carriage. These were taken from the inn when they were leaving in a hurry, and to have steamed buns to eat was already pretty good.

The roasted steamed buns were slightly burned, but they tasted fairly good after salt and pepper were added to them by Ren Baqian.

The buns would taste even better if they had chili sauce.

After eating the steamed buns, they lay on the gra.s.s to watch the sky while the mosquitoes buzzed beside their ears.

Pow! Ren Baqian slapped himself and killed a big mosquito in exchange for the pain.

"Why do they only sting me?" Ren Baqian felt that something was wrong. Nothing was happening to Lin Qiaole while these mosquitoes were all going for him.

Bzz. Bzz.

Ren Baqian turned his head to see a mosquito landing on Lin Qiaole's face. The proboscis of the mosquito was trying to pierce her skin, but it was like trying to pierce through an iron plate. The insect dropped down upon contact. This mosquito lost its bearings and flew away.

The hardness of her skin made him envious and jealous.

Ren Baqian sighed and continued lying down to view the sky. The night sky in this world was full of stars and was a beautiful sight to behold. He could see the beautiful night sky on Earth when he was young, but not anymore when he grew up.

"The dark sky droops

The bright stars accompany it

Insects are flying

Insects are flying…"

Ren Baqian smacked his lips, but he couldn't go on singing because the mosquitoes were flying everywhere…

The sound of galloping horses broke the silence of the night.

The sound of horses traveling quickly so late at night made Ren Baqian realize that he had matters to attend to. Earlier this afternoon, he already knew that they would chase after him. However, they had come after him later than expected.

"Wake up. There's work to do."

"I'll do it after I wake up…" Lin Qiaole said in confusion.

"I can wait, but they can't wait any longer!"

The sounds of hooves were getting closer even as they talked.

There were at least six or seven horses.

"There is firelight. Some people are up ahead."

"According to the path they took, there is an 80 percent chance that it is them. Be careful."

The few people on horseback saw the firelight in the distance and became alert immediately because they had finally caught up with their quarry. These people had actually killed a few Nine Blades Sect members in Longshou City and definitely couldn't be let off.

The sounds of the hooves stopped outside the area illuminated by the fire.

In the darkness, the group of them saw two people lying near the bonfire and knew they had found their targets.

"You two, I don't know how our Nine Blades Sect members provoked you to make you deal them such a cruel blow. Out of the five, only one survived. The survivor was seriously injured and might be crippled after recovering. The method used by the both of you was diabolical. Furthermore, the both of you thought of running away after killing someone?" Six people came out from the darkness. The first two were around 60 years old, and following behind, were four capable and vigorous looking men that were in their thirties.

"They are too ugly…" Ren Baqian said without hesitation. Although the other side had provoked him first, he considered the Nine Blades Sect as just a small martial arts sect. Furthermore, he was a Secondary Cla.s.s, Rank 4 official in Dayao's imperial court.

If he wasn't here on official duties, he could simply dispatch a group of guards to wipe out the entire Nine Blades Sect.

The gap between them was too big, and he couldn't be bothered to explain this to the Nine Blades Sect members.

Anyway, there was nothing to explain.

Did he need to say they deliberately charged into him and that he was reasoning with them? Ren Baqian was too lazy to give an explanation.

The members of Nine Blades Sect came because of their anger with the two. They hesitated to attack as they knew that the lady was an expert after they saw the dead body of the horse.

Hearing what Ren Baqian said, they became angrier. If they let these two off, the Nine Blades Sect wouldn't be able to carry on in the future.

"Since you said so, there is nothing to else say. We will bring you back and let our chief deal with you." One of them laughed furiously, and without saying anything more, he jumped up and pounced at the two of them. The rest of them proceeded to surround the pair.

Ren Baqian lay on the ground and fired three shots in rapid succession at the figure in midair that was coming toward him.

As the three gunshots roared, that man changed his position in midair a few times and shouted, "Trying to hurt me with a trivial hidden weapon? You have underestimated our sect."

Subsequently, a lotus flower made up of snow white knives bloomed in the air.

After displaying the power of his knives, the man in midair looked at the two people below who were not making any moves. He relaxed and thought that the two were young and had not seen much of the world. The young lady could kill a horse and must be very strong, but was muddle-headed when faced with a life or death situation.

After catching and sending them back, he would let them know that this was Tianjing Basin and not the Yun Nation. Not everybody could come here and behave arrogantly.

These two would pay with their lives in exchange for the lives of his fellow sect members.

He would let the little lady pose in 18 positions for her own pleasure before making her pay with her life.

When the surrounding people saw the snow white lotus displayed in midair, their eyes brightened. This set of swordplay was called [Seventh Blade]. The name of the Nine Blades Sect wasn't derived from nine blades, but from nine sets of blade techniques. Every set was very powerful, and the later the set was, the more powerful it was.

[Ninth Blade] hadn't been mastered by anyone for many years, and only the chief was successful in mastering [Eighth Blade]. This [Seventh Blade] was the most powerful set practiced among their current pursuit group.

This elder used the most powerful set of blade techniques right at the beginning, and his intention to win was evident.

While all sorts of thoughts were going through the minds of everyone, a figure suddenly bounced off the ground at a speed faster than the elder's and appeared before him. This figure turned in midair a few times to pa.s.s through the blade gleam, and before the elder could react, it clawed at his face. After that, it clawed at him again.

That man's face was filled with 10 b.l.o.o.d.y claw marks, making him look inhuman. The man then fell down from midair with a miserable howl.

This change shocked the surrounding crowd because this fallen man was one of their elders and an Earth Wheel expert who was at the intermediate level, yet he was defeated after only one clash.

"Spirit Wheel…" A raspy trembling voice was heard.

The others were horrified. Spirit Wheel? A Spirit Wheel expert was the top expert wherever he or she was and could even become the warlord of a region.

If this person were to become a Great Xia official, she would at least be a Rank 4 official.

Most of the pract.i.tioners had never seen a Spirit Wheel expert before.

Was this little girl a Spirit Wheel expert? Did they themselves actually want to battle with a Spirit Wheel expert?

Thinking about themselves doing so, everyone began to have cold sweats.

Nothing was worse than fighting against a Spirit Wheel expert. If there was something worse, it would be personally preparing to fight with a Spirit Wheel expert.

It was practically putting one's neck on the edge of a knife.

n.o.body doubted the words spoken as they came from another elder who was also an Earth Wheel expert.

This time around, the Nine Blades Sect sent out two Earth Wheel experts in order to catch these two people and bring them back.

One had to know that there were only a total of five Earth Wheel experts in the Nine Blades Sect. It was also the biggest sect in Longshou City and its Earth Wheel experts could go to most places and act with impunity.

n.o.body expected them to encounter anyone more dominant, yet surprisingly, they were met with a Spirit Wheel expert.

Lin Qiaole landed on the ground, licked her fingers, and frowned. The flavor of blood didn't seem to taste good.

"You may get diarrhea…" Ren Baqian saw her actions and couldn't restrain himself from saying, "You lick any Tom, d.i.c.k, or Harry's blood. Don't you find it dirty?"

Lin Qiaole immediately rubbed her hands on her body.

If they were termed as Tom, d.i.c.k, or Harry earlier on, the Nine Blades Sect members would certainly have fought with their lives on the line against their opponent.

However, learning that their opponent was a Spirit Wheel expert, all thoughts of resistance perished, and their only thought was to escape from this place alive.

n.o.body doubted that all six of them would die if the opponent decided to kill them.
