Chapter 93 Misunderstanding (Third update, please subscribe)

The moment the candlelight went out, Wang Linglong straightened her back and sprang up from her chair.

As if pulled by a rope, Wang Linglong's body floated straight backward.

Almost at the same time.

With a crack, the window shattered, followed by a force that landed on the chair.

The chair was smashed to pieces.

If Wang Linglong were still sitting in the chair, she would inevitably be turned into mincemeat by this force.

In the dim moonlight, Wang Linglong saw a figure shrouded in black, with only his eyes visible, standing amidst the ruins of the chair.

The opponent stomped his foot and charged forward like a wild bear.

The speed was so fast that Wang Linglong only had time to cross her arms to block.

No sooner said than done.

With a muffled thud, Wang Linglong felt a piercing pain from her arms, and her body was involuntarily sent flying backward.

Without even looking, she knew that her arm was probably fractured.

This brute force—True Essence Realm!

No, if he were truly at the True Essence Realm, his arm would already be broken.

The opponent's physique is comparable to that of a true cultivator, but their actual cultivation level is still somewhat lacking.

In a flash, a series of thoughts flashed through Wang Linglong's mind.

Although her mind was racing, Wang Linglong did not hesitate at all.

She pushed off the wall with her right foot, stopping her backward momentum, and used the momentum to counterattack.

She thrust her long arm straight out, like a spear, towards the assassin's face.

Wang Linglong was wearing loose-fitting women's clothing, and the sleeves made a series of slapping sounds as they fluttered.

A true expert's skill is immediately apparent upon their first move.

Wang Linglong quickly regained her composure and launched a counterattack. The momentum of this attack was like a surging river, unstoppable.

Zhou Yuan was secretly amazed. This Wang Linglong was only a martial arts scholar, but her strength was much stronger than Dong Hailou, who had the title of martial arts graduate.

At the critical moment, Zhou Yuan blocked with his arm, immediately striking Wang Linglong's forearm.

Wang Linglong snorted, her arm was swatted away, worsening her injury.

Women are generally not as physically strong as men. Although Wang Linglong is quite skilled, her martial arts style is based on agility and lightness, and strength is not her forte.

"The assassin is strong and powerful, clearly a master of body refinement. I must rely on my agility to avoid his attacks, exhaust his strength, find his weakness, and then deliver a thunderous blow!"

In an instant, she had already made up her mind.

Under normal circumstances, Wang Linglong's decision is perfectly reasonable.

Body-refining martial artists have strong explosive power and great strength, but speed is often their weakness.

Coincidentally, Wang Linglong's lightness skill was considered top-notch among her peers.

In a battle between masters, changes can happen in the blink of an eye.

Wang Linglong dodged the opponent's deadly sneak attack. Although she suffered a minor injury to her arm, it did not affect her strength.

In a flash, she pounced on her opponent's back like a ghost.

The smug look in his eyes had barely surfaced before it vanished instantly.

The assassin suddenly disappeared from Wang Linglong's sight.

The assassin's agility was in no way inferior to hers.

"not good!"

Wang Linglong was greatly alarmed.

She instinctively turned around and saw the assassin rushing towards her.

The opponent pounced like a hungry tiger, fierce and powerful; she could even hear a roar like a tiger's.

The sound made her dizzy and slowed her down a bit when she tried to dodge.

boom!

Wang Linglong felt as if she had been hit by a running rhinoceros, and her body was sent flying uncontrollably.

Click!

She crashed through the window, landed in the yard, rolled several times on the ground, and then jumped up in front of her.

Before she could react, the assassin was right behind her.

Wang Linglong lost the initiative and was in a state of great confusion, barely managing to parry.

Indeed, his arm was broken by a punch, and another punch landed on her chest, breaking countless ribs in an instant.

puff!

Wang Linglong coughed up blood and stumbled backward, her body already falling to the ground, seemingly about to die at the hands of the assassin.

Just then, a sharp whooshing sound rang out.

The assassin moved sideways, then leaped onto the high wall and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Several guards appeared in the courtyard and rushed towards Wang Linglong, while others chased after the direction in which the assassin had disappeared.

"Stop chasing!"

Wang Linglong shouted loudly, but the movement aggravated her injuries, and she coughed up another mouthful of blood.

"You are no match for him; chasing after him will only lead to your deaths."

Wang Linglong tore open her outer garment, revealing a pair of exquisite gold-threaded soft armor underneath.

A clear fist imprint was printed on the gold-threaded soft armor.

Wang Linglong's eyes were filled with lingering fear.

If she hadn't been wearing the golden silk armor, she would have already died at the hands of the assassin.

The opponent's strength was simply too ferocious.

"Such a fierce and unparalleled hard skill, apart from the Beast King Golden Body of the Beast Taming Sect, I really can't think of anything else."

Despite being seriously injured, Wang Linglong's mind was more active than usual.

"It's the Beast Taming Sect! I've been tricked! Dong Hailou probably isn't really injured; this is a trap, a trap specifically designed to target me!"

Wang Linglong's expression changed drastically.

"Go! Get out of the city! Leave now! If we're any slower, we'll never get out!"

Wang Linglong struggled to get up and said sternly.

Just as Wang Linglong and her men left the city, an order was already being sent to the four city gates.

The city guards completely surrounded the Martial Alliance Hall.

boom!

Gao Da kicked the door of the Martial Alliance Hall to pieces and led his men to rush in menacingly.

After a while, he returned to the door.

Zhou Yuan stood there, knife in hand, expressionless.

-

"There's no one left, but they left in a hurry and didn't have time to take many things with them."

Gao Da said in a low voice, raised an eyebrow at Zhou Yuan, and patted his chest, looking like he was about to divide the spoils.

"Are you sure you're not mistaken? That little vixen is really a member of the Red Lotus Society?"

Gao Da couldn't help but ask.

If this is a misunderstanding, then things could get really messy.

Although the Martial Alliance is a civilian organization, it is backed by County Magistrate Dong Hailou.

If Zhou Yuan had solid evidence to mobilize the city guards to capture the leader of the Martial Alliance, that would be one thing, but otherwise, it would be difficult to explain later.

"If she had nothing to hide, why would she leave the city in the middle of the night?"

Zhou Yuan said calmly.

After nearly killing Wang Linglong, he did not leave immediately, but hid nearby to prepare to strike again.

Wang Linglong certainly didn't expect that the assassin would try again immediately after failing once.

He then saw Wang Linglong hurriedly leading her people out of the city.

Although he didn't know what had happened, Zhou Yuan immediately came up with an idea.

He immediately went home to change his clothes, then ordered the city gates to be sealed off and led his troops to surround the Martial Alliance Hall.

He knew Wang Linglong wasn't there, so he decided to cover up the truth first.

If Wang Linglong doesn't come back, fine. But if she dares to come back, I'll mobilize the city guards to surround and kill her!

According to the laws of the Great Qi Dynasty, anyone associated with the Red Lotus Society shall be killed without mercy.

"Sir, we've found the evidence!"

Just then, Zhou Shun ran over excitedly.

Zhou Yuan and Gao Da were both taken aback. Was there really evidence?

"My lord, this is a prescription I found in the guild hall. It is medicine that Wang Linglong prepared for the county magistrate."

I've seen a doctor; it's poison!

She actually poisoned the county magistrate!

Zhou Shun said excitedly, "If we have the opportunity to capture the Red Lotus Society, that would be a great achievement!"

A look of astonishment flashed deep in Zhou Yuan's eyes.

Was this a lucky accident?

He said, "How could County Magistrate Dong Hailou have been unconscious for so long?"

So there are people who don't want him to wake up.

By poisoning and plotting against the county magistrate, Wang Linglong is, even if not a member of the Red Lotus Society, still a member of the Red Lotus Society.

"Let's go to the county government office."

Zhou Yuan waved his hand.

A moment later, Dong Hailou, whose head was covered with silver needles, turned red in the face and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Wang Linglong!"

He roared like a wounded beast, "How dare you humiliate me like this!"

I will never let you get away with this!

"Your Excellency, the most urgent task now is to issue an arrest warrant and apprehend Wang Linglong."

Zhou Yuan clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Commander Zhou, we owe you a great debt this time. If it weren't for you, I would have lost my life at the hands of that viperous woman."

-

Dong Hailou said with gratitude, "In the past, this county was blind to talent. From now on, in Gaoshan County, this county only recognizes Commander Zhou."

Don't worry, Wang Linglong dares to insult this county magistrate like this, this county magistrate will definitely not let him off.

Not only will I issue an arrest warrant for her, but I will also issue a martial arts manhunt order in the name of the Beast Taming Sect!

She killed my junior brother and almost harmed me. I will make her know that the Beast Taming Sect cannot be humiliated!

Zhou Yuan was slightly taken aback. Could Dong Hailou have misunderstood?

Gao Liang wasn't killed by Wang Linglong.

However, on the surface, Wang Linglong was the biggest beneficiary of Gao Liang's death.

After all, if Gao Liang hadn't died, Wang Linglong wouldn't have been able to become the leader of the Martial Alliance.

Now that Wang Linglong has plotted to murder Dong Hailou, it's reasonable to say that she killed Gao Liang.

"The county magistrate is wise!"

Zhou Yuan didn't hold back his praise.

Outside the city, in a remote valley.

Wang Linglong sat cross-legged, her face as red as if it had been smeared with blood.

puff!

She coughed up another mouthful of blood, but her complexion had recovered considerably.

"The Beast King's Golden Body is indeed incomparably domineering!"

Wang Linglong muttered to herself, "Even through the golden silk armor, they managed to injure me to this extent. If they hadn't not yet truly broken through to the True Essence Realm, even the golden silk armor probably wouldn't have been able to save my life."

Even so, I won't be able to heal in a few months.

How hateful were my plans in Gaoshan County!

Beast Control Sect! "

Wang Linglong gritted her teeth in hatred.

Suddenly a young woman rushed into the cave.

"Miss, you guessed right."

The woman said angrily, "As expected, the Beast Taming Sect dug a pit for us."

The Beast Taming Sect has issued a kill order to hunt you down, Miss. Fortunately, you are using an alias, and they are after Wang Linglong.

"A gentleman would not leave this grudge unavenged!"

Wang Linglong's face flushed red with anger once again.

"Miss, you're no gentleman either."

"That's what the woman next to me said."

Wang Linglong almost spat out the mouthful of blood she had managed to swallow.

Is this the key point?

Don't you know that women are even more dangerous to mess with?

"You dare to hurt me? I'll make the Beast Taming Sect pay with the lives of ten of their elite disciples!"

Wang Linglong gritted her teeth and said.

"Let's set off for Jiangzhou Prefecture. We've already been spotted in Gaoshan County, so things are beyond saving. But we can't let Dong Hailou have it too easy. Even if the Divine Weapon Valley gets that legendary weapon, we can't let the Beast Taming Sect be so smug."

Wang Linglong said.

In the county military camp of Gaoshan County.

Gao Da excitedly spread the items out in front of Zhou Yuan.

"Putting everything else aside, that little wench Wang Linglong is a damn good at making money."

Gao Da lowered his voice and said, "These were all found inside the Martial Alliance Hall: silver, antique paintings and calligraphy, precious medicinal herbs, and ores—"

I did the math, and it's worth at least that much!

Gundam raises three fingers.

"Three thousand taels?"

Zhou Yuan said with some surprise, "Wang Linglong served as the leader of the Martial Alliance for two or three months, paid 10,000 taels of silver to Dong Hailou, and was still able to keep 3,000 taels for herself."

Three thousand taels? Who do you think you are?

Gao Da said disdainfully, "Thirty thousand taels!"

"Zhou Yuan, you're now the commander of the city guards, can't you broaden your horizons a bit?"

Although Gao Da was talking about Zhou Yuan, his expression also showed a bit of shock, and he was practically drooling on the table.

Thirty thousand taels of silver—it would take them ten years to earn that amount on their own.

Sure enough, confiscating property is the fastest way to get money.

Zhou Yuan was filled with emotion. He had just received 10,000 taels not long ago, and now he had received another 30,000 taels. Why did he feel that the silver was a bit too hot to handle?
