The frail counselor you said, you fight against three heroes alone?

Continuing to walk forward, Wang Hu said that the journey was quite long and it would be better to find a carriage.

When a soldier heard this, his eyes widened with anger and he kicked Wang Hu.

"Humph, a prisoner actually dares to make such a request? Don't you even consider your own status?"

Wang Hu was kicked and staggered, almost falling to the ground, but he gritted his teeth and said nothing.

"Stop dreaming and hurry on your way, or you will suffer."

Wang Hu looked up at the road ahead. The winding road seemed to have no end.

He sighed secretly in his heart, knowing that it was useless to argue at this moment, so he could only drag his heavy feet and continue to follow the team forward, but a trace of unwillingness and stubbornness flashed in his eyes.

The sun was high in the sky, baking the earth hot. Several people were moving slowly in the flying dust.

Wang Hu's forehead was covered with sweat, and his prison uniform had long been soaked with sweat, sticking to his back and feeling sticky and uncomfortable.

His feet felt like they were filled with lead, and every step he took required tremendous effort.

Seeing Wang Hu's slow steps, the soldier raised the whip in his hand and swung it in the air, making a crisp sound.

"Hurry up, don't dawdle!"

A surge of anger surged in Wang Hu's heart, but he knew that resisting at this moment would only put him in a worse situation, so he could only suppress the resentment in his heart.

When they reached a hillside, Wang Hu slipped and almost rolled down the mountain.

In panic, he grabbed a small tree on the side of the road and managed to keep his balance.

The soldiers laughed at the side.

"This piece of trash can't even walk properly." Wang Hu bit his lips tightly. His hand was scratched by a branch and blood oozed out. He silently let go of the branch and continued to move forward.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, it was getting dark and the team finally set up camp beside a forest.

Wang Hu sat down on the ground exhausted, his stomach rumbling.

He looked at the soldiers sitting together not far away, eating dry food, and his heart was filled with bitterness.

At this moment, the soldier asked how far it was, and Wang Hu said it was at least more than a hundred miles.

Several soldiers stared with wide eyes. One soldier shouted angrily, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? How long do we have to wait?"

Their roars echoed in the empty road, causing the grass on the roadside to rustle and several hares to flee in panic.

Wang Hu sneered and replied, "I told you to hire a carriage, but you guys were not happy about it, weren't you?"

This made several soldiers even more furious. One of them gritted his teeth and said, "If you cheat us, you will bear the consequences yourself!"

The veins on the soldier's forehead bulged like twisted earthworms, and the spear in his hand trembled slightly with anger.

Wang Hu curled his lips and said nonchalantly: "Believe it or not."
The soldiers surrounded him, rubbing their hands, as if they were ready to teach Wang Hu a lesson.

Wang Hu raised his head slightly, looking at them without any fear in his eyes.

One of the soldiers with a face full of flesh suddenly grabbed Wang Hu by the collar and lifted him up, "You are a death row prisoner, how dare you talk back!"

Wang Hu said calmly: "I am only telling the truth. If you don't believe me, you can go down and try it yourself. If you are delayed in your trip, don't blame me for not reminding you."

A thin soldier nearby seemed a little worried and advised: "Brother, maybe what he said is true, we should be careful."

The soldier with a fierce face snorted and let go of Wang Hu.

"I don't think you dare to lie. If you can't see the destination tomorrow, you will be in trouble!"

After some discussion, several soldiers decided to set up camp and rest on the spot today, and then hire a carriage tomorrow to continue their journey.

They busily began to set up camp. Some soldiers went to look for water, while others were packing their bags. They communicated with each other much less than before, and it was obvious that they were still worried about the long journey.

Wang Hu sat quietly aside, watching the busy figures of the soldiers. Although he did not say a word, an imperceptible sneer quietly appeared at the corner of his mouth.

Armas dressed himself carefully, and under the cover of night, he walked steadily towards the vermilion lacquered door of the Huang Mansion and raised his hand to knock on the doorknob.

After a while, the doorman slowly opened the door, looked at Armas with a somewhat scrutinizing gaze, and asked, "What do you want?"

Armas smiled and said earnestly: "Brother, I am really desperate. I have already looked for several inns, but they are all full. Can you please let me stay here? I will be very grateful."

Upon hearing this, the concierge frowned slightly and said in a cold tone: "Don't embarrass me. This is an ordinary family's mansion, not an inn. We never accommodate outsiders. You'd better leave quickly."

Having said that, he wanted to close the door.

Seeing the doorman's refusal, Armas took out a handful of money from his pocket, weighed it carefully, and said, "Don't worry, brother. I know I can't make things difficult for you. I will pay you the fees you should pay, and part of it will be used as a reward for your hard work and help."

The concierge's eyes lit up instantly, and his attitude changed immediately. He smiled, but still said with some embarrassment: "Sir, you are so generous. I am very grateful. But I really can't make the decision. I have to ask the butler for instructions."

Armas nodded slightly and said gently and politely: "In that case, I'll trouble you to make this trip."

The doorman nodded repeatedly and asked Armas to wait there for a while. He turned around and walked quickly to the inner courtyard to report the situation to the butler Xu Dabao.

The concierge trotted all the way to the inner courtyard, found the butler Xu Dabao, and said hurriedly: "Butler, there is a man outside, saying that the inn is full and wants to stay here for one night. He looks very pitiful and said he is willing to pay. Look..."

Before he finished speaking, Xu Dabao frowned, his face darkened, and he shouted, "What nonsense are you talking about! This is the Huang Mansion, not an inn. If we take in anyone who comes here, how can we be decent?"

The doorman shrank his neck after being scolded. He dared not say a word and just looked at Xu Dabao eagerly, hoping that he would change his mind.

Xu Dabao waved his hand impatiently: "In that case, just go and chase that person away."

The doorman agreed, turned around and took a few steps, when Xu Dabao suddenly spoke up again: "Wait a minute, I'd better go see him."

He secretly calculated in his mind that if this person could really afford the price, it would be a good addition to his own small treasury.

The two of them quickly arrived at the door, and the concierge hurriedly introduced: "This is our housekeeper."

Seeing this, Armas immediately bowed politely and said with a smile: "I have no choice but to disturb you today."

Armas has an upright posture, speaks modestly, and his eyes reveal sincerity and expectation, making it difficult to refuse easily.

Xu Dabao looked Almas up and down and said, "I heard that you had nowhere to stay, so I came here. This is not a place where you can just stay. You have to pay five times the price of the inn, otherwise, you can only find another place."

Armas nodded calmly.

"What's the harm? I'm prepared."

After saying that, he took out a handful of currency from his pocket, weighed it in his hand, and asked, "Butler Xu, are these enough?"

When Xu Dabao saw the huge sum of money, his eyes lit up and he quickly said, "That's enough."

Seeing this, the doorman at the side was filled with joy which instantly vanished. He had thought he could make a fortune, but now it was all taken away by the housekeeper. Although he was extremely angry, he did not dare to show it at all. He could only grit his teeth and hold back his anger in his heart.

Xu Dabao led Armas into the Huang Mansion, and his figure gradually disappeared from the doorman's sight.

The doorman looked in the direction they left and stamped his feet in anger.

He was full of regret and secretly blamed himself for being too timid and cautious. He should have asked Armas for some money first, rather than getting nothing now.

In his eyes, Xu Dabao's behavior was too greedy, and he completely disregarded the interests of him as an errand boy. The resentment in his heart spread like weeds, but he was helpless.

Who told the lady to favor Armas so much?

Xu Dabao absentmindedly led Armas to a residence. Armas had an ambiguous smile on his face, but his eyes turned cold in an instant when Xu Dabao turned around.

He approached quickly like a dark shadow, and with a fierce move, his slender fingers precisely grasped Xu Dabao's neck.

Xu Dabao was suddenly attacked, fear filled his eyes, his body struggled violently instinctively, and he struggled to squeeze out a few words from his throat.

"You...what are you doing?"

Armas sneered and lowered his voice, "Humph, why do you care about what I do? It's just your own greed."

After saying that, he increased the strength in his hands.

Xu Dabao used both hands to pry Armas's hands apart and stomped his feet on the ground, trying to break free from the sudden shackles.

He said with rapid breathing: "You...you can't do this, you will be in big trouble!" But Armas ignored him and just stared at him fiercely with determination in his eyes.

"It's not me who should be afraid of trouble, but you, a greedy person."

Armas continued to exert force with both hands until Xu Dabao's struggle gradually stopped and he died.

He looked at Xu Dabao's body, a cold sneer on his lips.

"If you weren't so greedy, how would I have had the opportunity to step into the Huang Mansion? This is all your own fault."

After saying that, he swiftly dragged Xu Dabao's body under the bed. His movements were skillful and calm, as if he was handling only an insignificant object.

Then, Armas straightened his clothes as if nothing had happened and began to look around the house carefully.

Armas quietly moved through the courtyard, his eyes sharp as a torch, searching everywhere for the princess, certain that she must be living somewhere important in this mansion.

At this time, Ren Dabai was watering the flowers carefully in a corner of the courtyard. The moonlight was pouring down, and the silver light fell on the flowers. The delicate and gorgeous flowers looked even more beautiful under the moonlight, and his mood became particularly comfortable and relaxed.

Looking up inadvertently, Ren Dabai caught a glimpse of Armas.

He couldn't help but wonder: Where did this person come from and why did he appear here?

When he looked at him carefully, he keenly noticed that there was a cold murderous aura emanating from Armas.

This discovery made him even more confused and puzzled, and he wondered what this stranger was doing.

Armas seemed not to notice his presence at all. He just put his hands behind his back and paced steadily in the courtyard, as if he was thinking about something or pursuing some elusive scent.

After a moment, Ren Dabai looked at his back, and the strange feeling in his heart could not be shaken off.

I always feel that this person is acting sneakily and must have some unspeakable secret.

So, he had an idea and decided to follow secretly and find out what was going on.

Armas searched all the way and finally came to the main room, which was Princess Linglong's room.

He stood in front of the door, raised his hand and knocked gently.

Linglong's voice came from inside the house immediately, and she asked softly, "Who is it?"

Armas did not answer, but knocked on the door again and again, and the knocking sounded particularly abrupt in the silent night.

Ren Dabai hid behind the bushes not far away and witnessed all this. His curiosity and doubts grew stronger. He didn't dare to breathe for fear of alarming Armas. His eyes were fixed on Armas's every move, looking forward to what would happen next.

Linglong was filled with anger. She hurried to the door and opened it violently.

When she saw that the person outside the door was Armas, she was surprised and asked, "Armas, why are you here?"

Armas forced a half-smile on his face and said sarcastically, "Your Highness, I hope you are well. Are you okay?"

At this time, Ren Dabai, who was hiding in the bushes, was stunned when he heard this conversation. He widened his eyes, and his heart was full of shock and confusion.

Princess? What on earth is going on?

Countless questions were swirling around in his mind. He didn't dare to breathe. He leaned forward slightly, his ears trying their best to catch any sound that might come from the house. His eyes were fixed on the figures of the two people at the door, as if he was afraid of missing any key details.

Linglong suddenly became nervous, her eyes full of vigilance, and asked: "Armas, how did you know I was here?"

Armas still had that unfathomable smile on his face as he responded nonchalantly.

"Your Highness, you don't have to worry about this. Since I'm here today, I will definitely take you away."

Linglong couldn't help but sneer when she heard this.

"Don't even think about it!"

Then he shouted loudly: "Someone come! Someone come!"

Seeing this, Armas's face darkened. He quickly covered Linglong's mouth with his hand and then forcibly dragged her into the house.

When Ren Dabai witnessed this critical scene, his heart tightened and he rushed into the house without hesitation, wanting only to stop Armas's evil deeds and rescue Princess Linglong from danger.

Linglong struggled with all her strength, but her weak body was no match for Armas and she couldn't break free at all.

Armas's face was as gloomy as water, and he lowered his voice and said, "To tell you the truth, the king sent me here. I originally planned to take you back to Parthia to take action, but if you resist like this, I don't mind finishing you off now."

At this critical moment, Ren Dabai suddenly rushed in, his face full of anger, his eyes wide open, and he cursed loudly: "You beast! Who are you? Let my wife go quickly, otherwise I will make you pay!"

As he spoke, he waved the watering can in his hand and rushed towards Armas. He looked as if he was ready to fight Armas to the death. He totally ignored the huge gap in strength between himself and the other party and only wanted to save Linglong.

Armas really didn't expect that someone would suddenly rush out and ruin his plans.

At this moment, Ren Dabai glanced at a vase next to him, picked it up without thinking, and threw it at Armas with all his strength.

The vase hit Armas' head accurately like an arrow shot from a bow.

Armas felt pain and was forced to let go of Linglong.

Ren Dabai shouted at the top of his lungs: "Madam, please leave!"

Armas immediately turned around and pounced towards Ren Dabai with a ferocious look on his face.

The two instantly struggled with each other.

While Ren Dabai was struggling to fend off Armas's attack, he anxiously called out, "Madam, please leave quickly!"

Linglong stood aside, feeling terrified and at a loss.

Ren Dabai looked at her, his eyes full of love and determination.

"I treat you like my own daughter. Can you please leave now?"

When Linglong heard this, tears welled up in her eyes. She gritted her teeth, turned around, and rushed out the door desperately, running all the way, shouting for help as she ran.

The miserable sound echoed far and wide in the silent night.

At this time, people in the yard came one after another, and there was a lot of noise for a while.

Seeing this, Armas's eyes became even more fierce. He exerted force with his hands and tightly grasped Ren Dabai's neck, gritting his teeth and cursing: "You ignorant beast, you dare to ruin my good thing, today I must kill you!"

Ren Dabai's face turned red and he had difficulty breathing. He tried desperately to pry Armas's hands apart with his hands and kicked around with his legs.

But Armas's hands were like iron clamps, motionless. Despair gradually revealed in Ren Dabai's eyes, but he still stared at Armas stubbornly, refusing to beg for mercy.

Ren Dabai used up his last bit of strength, found the right opportunity while struggling, and dealt Armas a fatal blow.

But Ren Dabai's body went limp, and he was killed just like that.

Armas chased madly in the direction where Linglong was.

Linglong ran while shouting for help, and her cry was particularly shrill in the silent yard.

Soon, several servants heard the noise and hurried over, running towards Linglong, intending to rescue her.

However, Armas ignored all that and only wanted to catch Linglong, so he continued to chase her.

Linglong was extremely anxious and at a loss as to what to do. Seeing that the figure was getting closer and closer, she was about to be caught up. There was a dry well in front of her.

She made up her mind and without thinking much else, she ran straight towards the dry well, then jumped in without hesitation and disappeared in an instant.

The servants gathered their strength and rushed towards Armas shouting angrily. After a chase, they successfully blocked him.

Armas steadied himself and thought to himself: If the princess jumps into the well, her life will be in danger. This way, he can go back and report to the king.

The leading servant shouted, "Where can you escape today, you evil thief?"

After saying that, he took the lead and attacked with a punch.

Armas dodged to the side and sneered: "You guys think you can stop me?" (End of this chapter)
