Transmigrated to Ancient Times as a Female Prison Guard

Chapter 76: Lure the Enemy out of the Hole



Chapter 76

Far away, Qin Chuyuan and the others who were watching the battle were deeply impressed and shocked by the high-level confrontation they saw for the first time.

Nangong Jue and Gong Xiaohua fought again for more than a hundred moves. Although both of them had consumed most of their strength, neither of them dared to relax.

Suddenly, Gong Xiaohua turned her sword tip and stabbed straight at Nangong Jue's vital point. Nangong Jue blocked horizontally with his folding fan, and the sword tip was caught in the fan ribs and was hard to withdraw.

Nangong Jue rotated his wrist, flipping the fan, and the long sword twisted.

Everything happened in an instant. Gong Xiaohua spun several turns in the air with the long sword, exerted force with her arm, and a strong force made the folding fan unable to withstand the momentum and stop spinning.

Nangong Jue shifted slightly to one side, and chopped towards Gong Xiaohua with the other hand.

Gong Xiaohua threw away her sword, swished to the ground, slid past Nangong Jue's side to behind him quickly, and slapped towards Nangong Jue.

Almost at the same time, Nangong Jue turned around, closed the folding fan, and stabbed towards Gong Xiaohua.

Both of them had no time to recover their moves, and could only take each other's killing moves with their own bodies.

Nangong Jue was slapped so hard that his five viscera and six bowels were almost displaced, and a mouthful of blood spurted from the corner of his mouth.

Gong Xiaohua's scapula was almost pierced through by the opponent's folding fan, her face was pale, and blood kept flowing out, but it was unclear because of her black clothes.

"I didn't expect your strength to be so great," said Nangong Jue.

"I'm very curious. Martial arts can't just make people stronger through learning. It must have a lot of actual combat experience to achieve something.

"Every move of yours seems to be well-practiced after being forged over and over again. This doesn't look like something a young lady who has never been out of the capital can do."

Gong Xiaohua did not respond. What Nangong Jue said was right. High martial arts skills are honed in battles.

But she could not tell the other party that her martial arts were honed through various assassination missions in her previous life.

"You're right, but I'm afraid I can't answer your question," said Gong Xiaohua.

"Let's stop here for this contest. If we continue, you're not my match."

"As long as you leave Nanlong Commandery and promise not to assassinate Lord Li, I will stop," said Nangong Jue.

Nangong Jue thought for a while. If he didn't kill the target, he would have to stay in Wuji Sect forever. So he firmly rejected: "No, when I came here, I had already signed the 'military order'. I must kill him."

"Then there's nothing more to say. Let's fight again," Gong Xiaohua said to Nangong Jue.

With one hand covering her stabbed scapula, her expression unchanged, she stood up with both hands clenched in front of her chest, ready to attack.

"The injured side of yours, if you exert force again, your arm will be disabled. Are you sure you still want to fight?" asked Nangong Jue.

"As long as I haven't collapsed, I can still fight. Come on."

Nangong Jue looked at Gong Xiaohua complicatedly. He admired her spirit of being willing to sacrifice herself for her duty, and admired her strong will in adversity.

Qin Chuyuan and the others watching the battle from afar,

"Young Master, there seems to be something wrong when Miss Gong stood up just now," Qin Yi suddenly said.

Just as he finished speaking, Qin Chuyuan's face changed drastically. He was about to rush towards Gong Xiaohua's side.

But before he ran far, a large number of people in black suddenly appeared around them, nearly a hundred people, quickly surrounding them.

Gong Xiaohua and Nangong Jue also noticed the changes around them.

"Are these people here to kill you?" Nangong Jue asked.

"As you can see."

"The fight is suspended for now. We'll continue another day."

After speaking, Nangong Jue turned around to leave. But just as he took a step, a voice came from behind.

"I'm afraid you can't leave today either."

"What do you mean?"

"Eliminate the roots to prevent future troubles."

Having said that, Gong Xiaohua quickly picked up the sword on the ground and joined Lord Li's side.

Seeing this, Nangong Jue thought for a while and temporarily followed Gong Xiaohua.

Qin Chuyuan and Lord Li also quickly approached Gong Xiaohua under the protection of Qin Yi, Xiao Fu and others.

As soon as Qin Chuyuan got close to Gong Xiaohua, he smelled a strong smell of blood.

Looking closely, he found cuts and wounds all over her body. Especially on her left scapula, blood kept flowing out. Frowning, he asked, "You're hurt?"

Hearing that Gong Xiaohua was injured, Lord Li and Xiao Fu, who were standing nearby, hurriedly came over and asked with concern.

"Little Hua, are you alright?"

"Master, are your injuries serious?"

"It's fine, just skin injuries." said Gong Xiaohua.

Qin Chuyuan pressed his lips together without saying anything. The air pressure around him was extremely low. He said to Qin Yi, "Hemostatic medicine."

"No need, I have this one here, it works better." Gong Xiaohua took out a bottle of golden sore medicine from her arms to Qin Chuyuan and said.

Qin Chuyuan took the medicine bottle from her hand and stood in front of Gong Xiaohua, blocking the view of others.

He was about to tear open a small hole in her injured clothes when Gong Xiaohua stopped him.

"I'll do it myself."

Qin Chuyuan was stunned for a moment, ignored her, and just said, "Can you do it with one hand?"

"Alright, indeed I can't." She then gave up struggling and let him apply medicine to her.

Soon, hundreds of people in black came to Gong Xiaohua and surrounded them.

Then the crowd of people in black opened up a path from the outside to the inside, and a tall, burly man wielding a long spear walked in.

The incoming man was the leader of this group of people in black.

Lord Li, under the protection of Xiao Fu, walked up and scolded the other party loudly: "I am the Inspector bestowed by His Majesty, ranked among the Nine Ministers. What are you trying to do? Hurry up and retreat."

"Ha ha, we are here to kill you people. When facing death, you're still wielding your authority here." The leader in black laughed loudly.

"Insolent!" Lord Li shouted angrily.

The majesty of one in high position instantly emanated from him, shaking the leader inwardly.

Seeing that the opponent was deterred by himself, Lord Li took the opportunity to interrogate: "Say, who sent you here? And why do you want to assassinate us?"

"Who told you to come and stir up trouble in Nanlong Commandery? When you're dead, go ask King Yama," said the leader.

Seeing that the other party did not respond directly, Lord Li didn't care and continued to ask, "Let me ask you again, was Inspector Zhang's death also your doing?"

"So what if it was us? He didn't listen, if he had just taken the money and left, how would he have ended up dead?"

"Then the money for the annual repair of the dams in Shuangyu County was also embezzled by you all?"

"Of course, we did that too."

"You really are audacious, enjoying the emperor's salary but not being loyal, not relieving the people's troubles, committing heinous crimes that caused hundreds of thousands of people to die in floods. And you are still complacent here unrepentantly."

"So what? Here in Nanlong Commandery, we are their heaven. Moreover, how do you know we are officials appointed by the court?"

"Humph, you admitted it yourself from the beginning!"

"You..."

The leader in black only realized now that he had fallen into the other party's trap from the very beginning.

He was led step by step by the opponent until almost all the secrets were extracted. Such a horrifying mind.

"Humph, so what if you know? Anyway you will undoubtedly die today. Let you become enlightened ghosts." After speaking, he immediately pulled down the veil on his face.

"It's you!"
