Kill the enemy and get a wife? I'll single-handedly slaughter my way through the Northern Barba

Zhang Liao was a man of outstanding achievements.

He was appointed to guard Zhenyuan City in a time of crisis, and successfully blocked the 100,000-strong army of the northern barbarians north of Zhenyuan City, thus protecting the capital.

His achievements will be recorded in history.

Zhang Liao's return to the capital for his new post will undoubtedly bring him continued honor and favor.

It will also have a significant impact on the political landscape of the imperial court.

Zhang Liao fought alongside the King of Qin and shared a bond of camaraderie.

If he returns to the capital, Prince Qin, Li Yan, will be even more powerful...

Fang Hui's clothes were soaked with cold sweat as he realized what the thief was up to!

They wanted Zhang Liao to perish under the protection of Prince Qin, Li Yan, and they wanted the Northern Barbarians to be in danger in the city guarded by Li Yan.

Thus, even if Prince Qin Li Yan returns to the capital, his prestige will be greatly diminished, and he will also lose Zhang Liao, a great ally.

What a deep scheme!

What a vicious heart!

"His Royal Highness King Qin!"

Fang Hui ran wildly towards the eaves of the house where King Qin, Li Yan, was located.

"Your Highness, please hurry to rescue General Zhang! General Zhang has been kidnapped by bandits!"

Although King Li Yan of Qin was covered in soot and looked rather disheveled from the fire, he was not seriously injured at all.

Firstly, Li Yan was extremely skilled in martial arts, and he also had the assistance of Bi Fang, Bian Xi, and others by his side.

Secondly, he discovered that the group of thieves didn't seem to intend to kill him at all.

Just as King Li Yan of Qin was about to annihilate the remaining bandits, he suddenly heard Fang Hui's voice.

He looked back and saw Zhang Liao being kidnapped by bandits. His head buzzed.

"You thief, how dare you!"

Li Yan also realized that the real target of this group of bandits was actually Zhang Liao!

When Bian Xi, Qiao Ping, and other officers of the Shuofeng Army saw this scene, they were terrified.

They immediately jumped down and gave chase.

Li Yan didn't bother dealing with the remaining "small fry" and chased after them like a gust of wind...

Zhenyuan City, Jishi Medical Clinic.

The area near the imperial palace was in complete chaos, but the Jishi Medical Clinic, far from the city center, remained remarkably quiet.

After carefully wrapping up the last packet of medicine and placing it aside, Du Banruo let out a long sigh of relief.

"Finally finished wrapping."

She stretched her neck and arms a couple of times, then said to the person next to her, "Xiao Wu, that's enough for today!"

Along with Du Banruo, there was a chubby little girl, about the same age as her, who was also packing the medicine.

Xiao Wu nodded upon hearing this, then suddenly grabbed Du Banruo's hand mischievously.

"Sister Prajna, are you hungry?"

Xiao Wu was an assistant at Jishi Medical Clinic and lived diagonally opposite the clinic.

She ate a lot, which her parents disliked, so they sent her to the Jishi Medical Clinic to work as a helper.

Not only can you earn some pocket money every day, you can also get free meals at Jishi Medical Clinic.

"You ate so much for dinner, are you still hungry?"

Du Banruo withdrew her hand and looked towards the backyard of the clinic: "It's already very late. The cook has long since gone home, and the master is resting. Don't be silly."

Xiao Wu pitifully took Du Banruo's hand again.

"Sister Prajna, I'm so tired from helping you pack medicine until so late."

"you see me--"

As she spoke, Xiao Wu patted her protruding belly: "I've lost weight from starvation."

Du Banruo poked Xiao Wu's belly helplessly.

"This is the last time!"

"If Master finds out that we're sneaking food, we'll be punished."

Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly, promising Du Banruo, "Sister Banruo, don't worry, this is absolutely the last time!"

This is the last time...

Xiao Wu added another sentence in his mind.

The two of them crept into the backyard of the clinic in the dark.

Du Banruo was so familiar with the clinic that he could move around freely even without a lamp.

Suddenly, Du Banruo stopped in her tracks.

"Bang!"

Xiao Wu lost control of his strength and bumped into Du Banruo's back.

"Sister Prajna?"

Xiao Wu wondered, why did Du Banruo stop before they even reached the kitchen?

"Shh!"

Du Banruo covered Xiao Wu's mouth and whispered in her ear, "There's someone in the teacher's yard!"

Xiao Wu's heart tightened immediately. Could it be that they had been caught by Mr. Zhang for sneaking food?

"What should I do? If Mr. Zhang doesn't let me work, my mother will definitely give me a good scolding again..." Xiao Wu stammered.

Seeing this, Du Banruo covered Xiao Wu's mouth and quietly looked into the courtyard.

"Squeak!"

Zhang Jing's door was pushed open, and the room was only illuminated by a dim oil lamp, through which his figure could be vaguely seen.

Zhang Jing sat in the chair, motionless.

The man who came out of his house had a cold expression and an ordinary appearance.

He was holding a sharp knife in his hand, with blood dripping from its tip.

Did he kill Mr. Zhang?

Du Banruo's heart clenched. She covered Xiao Wu's mouth tightly, telling him not to make a sound.

Then she led Xiao Wu back step by step, hiding in the shadows of the corner of the wall.

A moment later, the man walked out of the courtyard, wiped the knife on his body twice, and then left.

"Murder...murder?"

Xiao Wu was so frightened that he was stunned and asked Du Banruo.

"Sister Prajna, what should we do? What should we do?"

Du Banruo's pretty, fair face showed a hint of determination and courage.

"Go home quickly and find your parents, then report this to the authorities."

Xiao Wu nodded blankly, then suddenly thought of Du Banruo.

"Sister Prajna, what about you? Aren't you coming with me?"

Du Banruo got up and walked towards Zhang Jing's courtyard: "I'm going to save Mr. Zhang!"

Zhang Jing has already accepted Du Banruo as his last disciple, and has done Du Banruo a great favor.

The bloodstains on the assassin's knife weren't very deep. As long as it didn't hit a vital spot, Zhang Jing could still be saved!

Du Banruo took a deep breath and pressed down on the dagger at her waist.

That was a gift from Raymond Lam to her.

Touching the cold dagger, the image of Lin Feng appeared before her eyes, and Du Banruo mustered her courage and walked into the courtyard.

She was determined to save Mr. Zhang...

Zhenyuan City, Jixiang Street.

The bandits were carrying Zhang Liao as they ran.

Behind them, King Li Yan of Qin was approaching at an extremely fast speed.

About fifty paces behind King Li Yan of Qin, military officers Bi Fang, Bian Xi, Qiao Ping, and others followed closely behind.

"Thieves, please leave!"

King Li Yan of Qin casually picked up a stick from a roadside tavern that was hanging a cloth banner, used the stick as a short spear, and hurled it fiercely at the thief.

"Bang!"

The wooden stick flew at high speed and struck a thief squarely in the back, breaking his bones and tendons.

However, the thief was extremely powerful. Even after being beaten until he vomited blood, he still refused to stop and stumbled as he ran deeper into Jixiang Street.

King Li Yan of Qin, having succeeded in his attack, repeated the tactic, pulling out and throwing any shop flags or wooden sticks he saw.

"Whoosh!"

Another wooden stick was thrown out, and suddenly King Qin Li Yan heard a sharp whistle.

"call out--"

Immediately, a group of people emerged from the entrance of Jixiang Street and blocked Bi Fang, Qiao Ping, and others who were rushing to the scene.

This group of people were clad in armor and wielded swords and shields; they were clearly elite and skilled warriors.

At the same time, more than twenty people rushed out from the houses on both sides and attacked Prince Qin, Li Yan, without saying a word.

King Li Yan of Qin sneered, showing no fear.

He kicked out and hooked a wooden stick in his hand, using the stick as a weapon to fire with both hands.

With two blows, the two assassins were left bleeding from the head. Qin King Li Yan was a master of the spear, so using a stick was naturally no problem for him.

The next moment, someone threw a jar the size of a human head from the side.

King Li Yan of Qin took two steps back and shook his wooden stick.

"Snap!"

"Snap!"

The jar shattered, spilling liquid all over the ground, some of which landed on Li Yan's lower garment.

"Fire!"

Someone shouted, and a rocket was launched from the crowd, instantly igniting the liquid on the ground.

Many sparks flew onto Li Yan's clothes, causing them to catch fire immediately.

King Qin, Li Yan, remained calm and unhurried, thrusting his long staff forward and tearing apart the throat of one of the assassins.

He then swept his staff horizontally, deflecting two arrows and smashing the head of a suicide soldier.

Blood mixed with brain matter splattered everywhere, a truly horrific sight.

King Li Yan of Qin was unstoppable, killing several people in succession and breaking through the encirclement.

They headed straight for Zhang Liao, who had been kidnapped by bandits.

"Stop him!"

Seeing Li Yan break through the encirclement, someone immediately rushed out to stop him, but was killed by Li Yan in two moves.

Li Yan truly lived up to his reputation as a fierce general who was the bravest in the army. He fought until his body was covered in blood, which made the enemy tremble with fear!
