Chapter 176: Ultimate Kill
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Su Ying raised her head and saw several guards walking toward her.
She stood up and stepped on Xiao Jue’s neck. “Just stand five steps away. I can hear everything you say.”
The guard quickly stopped. “Young lady, the sandstorm here is too strong. Why don’t you come with us into the city to wait out the storm? This place is very cold at night.”
Su Ying glanced in the direction of the pa.s.s, then glanced at the forest not far away. The corners of her lips curled up slightly, and she suddenly exerted force on her feet. Xiao Jue screamed in anguish. “Get lost!”
When he saw that Su Ying did not take the bait, the guard instantly clenched his fists but did not dare to go forward. “Young lady, don’t be angry. We are also worried that His Highness will feel cold at night.”
However, Su Ying had no intention of releasing her foot. The guard didn’t dare to stay any longer and retreated repeatedly.
After they had retreated far away, Su Ying finally loosened her foot.
“Xiao Jue, don’t blame me for not giving you a chance to live. If 1 can’t get what 1 want, I’ll cut off your flesh slice by slice and feed it to the wolves.”
Xiao Jue felt his flesh tightening in pain.
They weren’t far from the pa.s.s, and they could reach it in less than fifteen minutes if they rode the horses at top speed. However, it would take quite a bit of time to gather the stuff Su Ying wanted.
It was not until the sky was almost dark that an army drove a convoy of horse carriages over.
“We’ve already brought the things. Hurry up and let His Highness go.”
As the sky darkened, Su Ying watched as the carriages slowly lined up in front of her. She loosened Xiao Jue’s belt and tightened it around his neck. She pointed at one of the carriages and said, “Open that black sack. 1 want to see what’s inside.”
After receiving instructions from their superiors, the soldiers quickly pulled down the sack Su Ying had indicated to them and opened it, revealing the glistening white rice inside.
“That one. Let me take a look too.”
Su Ying pointed to a few more sacks, and the soldiers took out the items inside the sacks one by one to show her.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the goods, Su Ying said, “The people driving the carriages will follow me into the forest.”
These words made the captain’s face sink.
Their men had already set up an ambush in the forest, but the sky was getting dark, and the forest was very dim. Su Ying was very close to Xiao Jue, so if they acted rashly, it was very likely that they might accidentally injure Xiao Jue.
This woman was really shrewd!
Su Ying held Xiao Jue hostage as she walked into the forest. She knew that there was a slope in the depths of the forest. The slope wasn’t very high, but when one looked down from the slope in the dark, the valley looked like a bottomless abyss.
“The people driving the carriages will enter. The rest will wait outside the forest. If I find someone following us, I will immediately take this guy’s wretched life!”
The soldiers immediately allowed the coachmen driving the carriages to go in front. The rest of the guards followed right behind them or sneaked in from other directions on the outskirts of the forest.
Su Ying brought Xiao Jue up the slope.
“Throw everything down,” Su Ying ordered the soldiers.
The soldiers were aghast when they heard her. She had waited so long for these things, but now she was asking them to throw them away. Was this woman toying with them?
The soldiers did not move.
“I repeat. Throw everything down!” Her hand gripping Xiao Jin’s neck tightened.
The soldiers had no choice but to do as they were told. They threw the goods in the carriage down bit by bit.
As there were too many things, it took them an hour to finish throwing them all.
Su Ying led Xiao Jue down the slope slowly.
“All of you step back and extinguish the torches. I’ll kill him if anyone dares to follow me.”
The soldiers did not dare to step forward and could only extinguish the torches.
The moment the last torch was extinguished, the forest instantly fell into endless darkness. At this moment, the sky had just turned dark and the moon had yet to come out. It could be said that not even a ray of light could penetrate through the forest. It was so dark that one could not even see his own fingers!
“Xiao Jue, shout! Tell them not to come down! Shout now.”
Xiao Jue shouted through gritted teeth, “All of you don’t come down! Don’t come down!”
As soon as Xiao Jue shouted, Su Ying covered his mouth and stabbed the dagger viciously into his chest.
Xiao Jue’s eyes widened in despair. Su Ying didn’t care if he lived or died, and she kicked him down the steep slope.
Su Ying threw the recorder on the ground, and Xiao Jue’s shouts kept echoing on the lower slope. She took out her night-vision goggles and quickly located the things that had been thrown down, which she then moved into her interspatial store.
The guards at the top of the slope tracked Xiao Jue’s voice and slowly made their way down the slope. They could hear his shouts nearby, but they couldn’t locate Xiao Jue’s figure.
After an unknown period of time, Xiao Jue’s shout stopped abruptly.
The soldiers and guards realized that something was wrong and immediately lit the torches. The light from the numerous torches illuminated the slope brightly, but to their surprise, there was nothing on the slope.
There was no vegetation on this slope. There were only a few short trees and some weeds. One could see the bottom of the slope at a glance. There were also traces of the thrown items sliding down the slope, but those things were inexplicably gone!
They rubbed their eyes repeatedly in disbelief. They thought that there was something wrong with their eyes, but after rubbing their eyes until they turned red, they still couldn’t see anything.
“This… is really… really unbelievable…”
“Your Highness! I found him! I found His Highness!”
The soldiers and guards came forward to lift Xiao Jue up. He was in a sorry state, and his head and face were covered in wounds.
“Quick! Carry His Highness up. You guys escort His Highness back. I’ll bring some men to go after those people. They won’t be able to get far with so many things.”
“Yes, Sir.”
The soldiers and guards split into two groups.
At this moment, Su Ying, who was hiding in her interspatial store, didn’t even need to think to know how chaotic it was outside.
These people still cherished that sc.u.mbag Xiao Jue’s life. They had sent a lot of things. Perhaps they thought that these things were just for show and could be taken back. Unfortunately, their thought turned out to be wrong.
Su Ying happily counted the supplies she had bought yesterday and obtained today in her interspatial store. Without a doubt, the more she looked at her gains, the more satisfied she was.
Those people probably wouldn’t leave anytime soon, and Su Ying wasn’t in a hurry to go back. She took the dried meat and snacks she had previously stocked up from the shelf and began to eat them contentedly.
At ten past midnight, Tiger Might and the others finally returned to the Tiger Base.
However, when they were approaching the Tiger Base, Tiger Might was still careful. He didn’t let the coachmen go directly to the Tiger Base. Instead, he brought them around the Tiger Base and finally got them to unload the goods near the Azure Dragon Base. Thereafter, he sent someone back to get more people.
“Thank you, everyone. This is the rental fee. Please keep it safe.” After Tiger Might paid the rental fee, he asked two men to lead the coachmen out of the northern wilderness.
The coachmen also realized that Tiger Might and the others were not ordinary people. When they left, they did not dare to look around at all as they were afraid that they would get into trouble.
An hour later, the people from the Tiger Base rushed over.
However, it was not Qiao Yang who was riding at the front, but Xiao Jin..
