stors could move freely.If one has already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, what use is there for inner essence symbolsIt has to be said, this is a rather paradoxical matter. Of course, Qin S...The assassin seemed to have anticipated this, as while twisting his body to jam the sword in its sheath, he didn't hesitate for a moment. With both hands extended like an ape, he tried to grapple onto Lao Yue's body.

Old Yue reacted swiftly, sensing the danger. He immediately loosened his grip on the sword and retreated quickly.
'Sizzle!'
The assassin ripped off two pieces of cloth, unable to hold onto Elder Yue. He retreated and desperately clutched Elder Yue's arm.
Just then, the leaves rustled, and three more dark figures leaped down, their forms like ghosts, heading straight for Dongyang County Princess.
>
Elder Yue's face changed drastically, and in his haste, he waved his palm toward the assassin's head. The assassin, having made up his mind to die, didn't dodge. He clung tightly to Elder Yue's leg with both legs. He couldn't withstand a few blows and was struck on the head by Elder Yue's palm.
Red and white splashed out, the assassin though dead, his limbs still tightly gripped to Yue Lao's body.
Things outside had already been in chaos.

Bai Jianglan had just made a move when he encountered two desperate assassins who attacked him relentlessly. They fought with all their might, and even Bai Jianglan, as powerful as he was, had to be careful in his response.
The remaining five guards had two shot through the chest by secretly launched crossbow arrows, falling dead to the ground. The other three were alert, dodging the concealed arrows and, after that, huddled together, leaning on each other for support, barely managing to hold their ground against the assassin's onslaught.
>
At this moment, Yue Lao, who was closest to the County Princess, was restrained by the assassins. Dongyang County Princess had just sat up from the ground.
Elder Yue dragged the assassin's corpse, his movements clumsy. He only managed to bump into the nearest assassin and shouted loudly, "Quick, save the County Princess!"

Qin Sang was the quickest to react, but this was his first encounter with such a fierce and chaotic battle. He was also afraid that Yan Wang's methods of killing were too bizarre, and exposing his secret in front of everyone would be dangerous, so he hesitated.
To his surprise, he hesitated for a moment, and in the blink of an eye, the situation worsened drastically.
Qin Sang grabbed the iron rod, faintly hearing a slight sound behind him. Then he felt a gust of evil wind coming from above his head and quickly rolled to the ground.

'Pfft!'
An arrow shot into the ground where Qin Sang had just been standing.
Then a black shadow, like a giant bird with outstretched wings, swooped down from the canopy. A cold flash of swordlight pierced the gloom.
Qin Sang hastily rolled again to dodge the sword. Just as he summoned Yama, he heard Shui Houzi shout, "Brother Qin, stop him! I'm going to save the county princess!"
>
Qin Sang had no choice but to swing his staff and fight the assassin head-on. In the midst of the chaos, he glanced back.

Bai Jianglan, wounded in exchange for wounds, killed an assassin. Covered in blood, dragging his tail, he arrived at the county lord's side in a moment of crisis, blocking one person.
The water monkey arrived just in time and stopped another one.
The situation has stabilized for now, we just need to wait for Elder Yue to escape and then the overall victory will be ours. There's no need to rush Yama into killing anyone.
Unbeknownst to Qin Sang, as this thought flashed through his mind and he prepared to slowly engage with the assassin Zhou, a faint sound reached his ears. It was so subtle, almost imperceptible, yet utterly out of place. His keen hearing, even amidst the chaos of battle, picked it up distinctly.
"This is..."
Qin Sang's heart moved, and she suddenly remembered, it was the sound of the strings!
Qin Sang swiftly scanned his surroundings and discovered something unusual about the shadows behind Dongyang County Lord. Then, a faint ghostly light shot out from the shadows.
It wasn't a crossbow bolt, but a slender concealed weapon as fine as an embroidery needle. The needle shimmered with a faint blue glow, clearly coated in deadly poison.

“Be careful, Miss!”
Qin Sang shouted, but saw Dongyang County Master still standing there, unable to move. Yue Lao and Bai Jianglan also turned back too late. Qin Sang couldn't think too much, and with all his strength, he smashed the iron wood stick in his hand fiercely.
Qin Sang immediately used his bird-fighting skills, almost sticking to Dongyang County Master. With a timely blow from the iron rod, he hit her with a poisoned dart, sending her flying away.
As she raised her hand, Qin Sang pressed the trigger of the hidden mechanism on her sleeve that fired an arrow towards the shadowy figure.
The arrow flew into the shadows, followed by a muffled thud, then silence.
Only then did Dongyang County Lord react, raising her head to glance at Qin Sang. A hint of panic flashed across her face, but it quickly subsided. She then smiled serenely at Qin Sang.
“Supreme Leader, strike swiftly!”
Elder Yue was startled by what had just happened, his whole body breaking out in a cold sweat. He dared not delay any longer. Risking being pierced by a sword, he struck the enemy down with his palm.
>
The assassination plot was shattered by Qin Sang's single blow. In an instant, all the assassins became utterly frenzied.
Qin Sang faced the assassin's sword with his bare fists. After a few moves, he realized he was at a disadvantage and quickly seized an opportunity to have Yama kill the assassin. At the moment the assassin stiffened, Qin Sang's fingers moved like lightning, crushing his throat as a cover-up.
He had a keen sense of timing and almost no flaws.
>
This was Qin Sang's first time using the Yanluo Banner to kill in front of others, and as he expected, he did it perfectly.
A smile just appeared on Qin Sang's face, but suddenly he heard several screams. His heart skipped a beat, water monkeys!
"Whoosh!"
A severed arm flew into the air, the water monkey's left arm was gone, his face as pale as death.
Elder Yue snatched a sword, swung it to cut away the encumbrances on his body, and with eight steps chasing a cicada, he dashed to the water monkey's side, striking down the assassin with one swift blow.
When the dust settled, only one of the five guards remained alive. The water monkey had lost an arm. Bai Jianglan used his fingers to press on the acupuncture points at the severed limb, channeling his qi to seal the blood vessels and staunch the bleeding.
Elder Yue was struck on the left shoulder by a sword, he had no time to attend to it. He quickly searched his surroundings and then checked if Princess Dongyang was injured.
The Dongyang County Lord shook her head, indicating that she was fine. She walked over by herself and picked up the iron staff, tapped it with her hand, and handed it back to Qin Sang, saying: "Thank you, Young Master Qin, for knocking away that poisoned needle and saving my life."
Qin Sang said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "County Princess, you are overpraising me. What Qin Sang did was just a small matter. This time, thanks to General Bai, Elder Yue, Zhou Ning and all the guards fighting bravely to kill the assassins, I had the opportunity to throw this stick."
Donghua County's princess nodded, then turned to Yue Lao and said, "Yue Lao, after you have dealt with your injuries, please arrange for the guards to be buried. Since they died for me, I can't let their bodies rot in the wilderness. When we return to Donghua County, I will order someone to bring their remains back for a proper burial."
Mr. Yue has gone to take his orders.
Qin Sang squatted beside Zhou Ning, watching Bai Jianglan busy himself. She wondered if this world had the medical skill of limb reattachment surgery. Even if it did, it would be difficult to restore it to its original state.

For a warrior, it is undoubtedly cruel.
Qin Sang looked at Shui Houzi's pale face and didn't know how to comfort him. He took out the golden healing medicine given by the old Taoist priest from his bosom and handed it to Bai Jianglan, "Big Brother Bai, try this. The prescription was passed down from a former imperial physician."
Bai Jianglan opened the bottle, sniffed it, then took some and applied it to the severed limb of the water monkey. To his relief, the constant bleeding gradually stopped.
Bai Jianglan's eyes lit up, "Good medicine!"
The water monkey gritted his teeth and struggled to say a few words, "Thank you, Brother Qin!"
What a tough guy!
Qin Sang inwardly praised him. The Water Monkey was lively and talkative, but unexpectedly, his temperament was so tough. Despite such a serious injury, there wasn't a trace of dejection on his face. Bai Jianglan helped treat his wound without saying a word.
"Brother Zhou, I'm still waiting to eat the nine-whiskered fish you brought!"
The water monkey laughed out loud. the Corpse Soul Bead.“Eighteen years have passed, time flies. From the market and various chambers of commerce, I’ve heard some rumors, the cultivation world is turbulent, far from being peaceful. It...
