Divorced by her husband's family and rejected by her own! She defiantly turned her life around

Ru Yu was a little hurt and in low spirits, so Liu Siyue quickly comforted her, "Don't be sad. Everyone has to practice. You just didn't see me practice. Just play around within ten steps of us. If you see someone, just fight them. The more you fight your own people, the better you'll get."

As the three walked, they looked around. Qingwu stretched out her hand and said, "Stop. There's a smell of blood. You guys climb the tree first."

Liu Siyue and Ruyu quickly found a big tree and climbed up it, each of them sitting on a branch and holding onto the tree branches tightly.

"Qingwu, you come up here too."

"Master, please wait here. I'll go check ahead and be back in a bit."

"Qingwu, take the dagger, be very careful."

Ru Yu's heart was in her throat. "Cousin, do you think it could be a wild boar?"

Maybe...

Don't be afraid, I'm here.

"Cousin, I'm not afraid. I haven't caught a single prey today."

Qingwu followed the scent of blood all the way there. She had already recognized it; it wasn't the smell of animal blood, but human blood.

Using her light-footed skills, she skimmed over the thorns on the ground and landed on a large tree trunk. She could already clearly hear the clash of weapons.

With a few leaps, she arrived at the battlefield. She observed carefully and saw more than 20 men in black beating up seven or eight people. Judging from their clothes, one of them was a woman.

She didn't move, just watched quietly. She didn't know where these people came from, and it wouldn't be good if they caused trouble for her master.

Seven or eight people were seen protecting the woman, while more than 20 men in black were closing in. "Shadow, we'll fight our way out. You take the princess and we'll hold them off."

"Stop arguing, all of you. You were raised by me and have followed me for so many years, through thick and thin. How could I leave you to live alone?"

The princess sheathed her sword, blood still dripping from her hanging arm. She walked up to the man in black and said, "I am the princess of the Great Sheng Dynasty. Xia Yuxuan just wants my life, doesn't he? You can take my life, but please let them go."

Seven or eight people knelt down in unison, pleading, "Princess, you mustn't! We'll risk our lives to protect you!"

The man in black laughed heartily, "What a deep bond between master and servant! Well then, I'll grant your wish and let you two have companions on your journey."

Oh, by the way, Her Majesty the Empress is still in His Highness's hands. Your two good brothers are completely neglected. His Highness asked me to tell the Princess that he will take good care of Her Majesty the Empress.

Hahahaha...

"You beast... Xia Yuxuan will definitely die a horrible death! And you won't have a good end either."

"Whose fault is this? It's your good brother who overestimated himself and wanted to compete with the Crown Prince for the throne."

The eldest princess drew her sword. "My life is not for you to take. Even if I die, I will die with dignity."

"Father, do you see this? This is your good son! In the afterlife, I want to see how you face the ancestors of the Xia family, and how you face the Empress Dowager."

After she finished speaking, she held the sword to her neck. In that split second, a dagger came flying through the air, knocking the sword from the princess's hand. The dagger pierced the chest of the man in black, who fell to the ground with a thud.

The air tensed instantly. Eight guards immediately surrounded the princess, and the leader of the men in black gave the order, "Kill!"

Qingwu overheard their conversation clearly. The woman who was surrounded was actually the eldest princess, a female general revered by everyone in the Great Sheng Dynasty.

She leaped up and flew towards the fighting crowd, immediately joining the battle. The men in black were highly skilled in martial arts, and every move they made was a killing blow; these people were clearly suicide squads.

She wielded the woodcutter with incredible skill, and in just a few breaths, five men in black had fallen. The leader of the men in black saw that this woman was a tough nut to crack, and he immediately made a gesture, saying that if they were the princess's head, why bother fighting this man?

Seven or eight people surrounded Qingwu, while the rest went to besiege the princess.

With a flick of her axe, Qingwu instantly felled a man. She rolled away, picked up the sword that the princess had dropped, and used it as a weapon that suited Youle perfectly. Qingwu's martial arts skills were at their peak. She used her inner strength to swing the sword, and the sword energy directly blasted away the people surrounding her.

She dared not linger; the eldest princess was clearly on the verge of collapse. She leaped into the air and landed in front of the eldest princess. "Protect the princess; leave this to me."

Seeing that his own men had suffered heavy losses, the man in black said, "Please, righteous man, don't get involved in this mess. She is someone His Highness wants. We don't want to be your enemy. As long as you leave now, we will never pursue this matter and will even give you some silver."

Otherwise, you, your family, your clan, and the entire village will have to pay a terrible price. Can you afford that price?

"You should be intelligent and know how to choose. Your skills are quite good; it's a waste of your talent to be stuck in this small mountain village. I can introduce you to His Highness and make you a commander in the Imperial Guard. Wouldn't that be prestigious?"

After the leader of the men in black finished speaking, both sides tensed up, waiting for Qingwu to make her choice. "The conditions you've offered are indeed tempting..."

The princess's heart leaped into her throat; the fate of them all now rested in this woman's hands.

"However, I don't care. What is the Crown Prince? He's worse than an animal, a beast. Your Highness, don't you agree?"

The princess had lost too much blood and was now deathly pale. She could no longer speak and could only nod slightly.

"You see, even Her Highness the Princess says so, so aren't those beasts' henchmen still beasts? How can I possibly collude with a bunch of beasts?"

Seeing that the princess's hands were bleeding and blood was seeping from her abdomen, Qingwu quickly turned around, sealed several of her acupoints, and then fought with the man in black.

With her sword flashing up and down, thrusting and slashing, only a few dozen breaths later, only 5 of the men in black were still standing. The battle continued, and Qingwu swung her sword, the sword energy directly blasting the man away, causing him to spit out blood.

She immediately went to the eldest princess and asked, "Are you all still able to move?"

"Um."

"Then give these people another blow; we absolutely cannot leave any survivors."

Several guards looked at the princess, who waved her hand at them, signaling them to do as she said. She knew in her heart that if this person wanted to take her life, it would be a piece of cake.

"Your Highness, where are you injured?"

The eldest princess pointed to her abdomen and arm.

"Princess, I'm sorry for the offense." She tore open the princess's clothes and saw a long wound on her abdomen. She immediately took out some wound medicine and sprinkled it on the wound. Then she tore off a piece of her own clothes and wrapped it tightly around the wound.

After treating the abdominal wound, I quickly bandaged the arm wound. The smell of blood here was too strong and would attract wild beasts soon, so I had to leave immediately.

"Are you all done yet? Hurry up and leave with me, and take all their weapons with you."

"Princess, I will take you away from here. Don't be afraid, I am a woman too."

The princess seemed to finally relax, her tense nerves snapped, and she completely fainted. She carried the princess out, with the guards following closely behind her.

They hadn't gone far when Qingwu heard the sounds of wild beasts tearing at each other. She quickened her pace, and the guards behind her endured the pain to keep up with her. Bloodstains were left in their wake.
