Chapter 598 - 598: Counterattack



Xiao Juan raised his hand and waved his saber, and the blade of the saber slashed fiercely at the net!

Seeing this, General Dou looked smug. “This net is woven from special iron wire and is extremely flexible. Ordinary swords can’t cut it…”

Before he could finish, he heard a sizzling sound. The blade of the No Return

Saber made a long cut in the net.

A huge hole immediately appeared in the huge net.

Xiao Juan and Meng Xizhou flew out of the cave and the wire net clattered to the ground.

General Dou was stunned. “How is this possible?”

Meng Xizhou chuckled. “As you said, ordinary blades can’t break your net, but our Duke Lang’s No Return Saber is not an ordinary blade. It’s a peerless good weapon in this world. It’s indestructible!”

Seeing Xiao Juan rush towards him with his saber, General Dou hurriedly raised his saber to block and ordered everyone to attack.

He wanted to take down Xiao Juan with their advantage in numbers.

As it turned out, he had underestimated Xiao Juan’s martial strength.

Even if all of them rushed forward, they were still no match for Xiao Juan.

After an intense battle, all the soldiers under General Dou were killed, leaving General Dou standing alone.

But he was also an arrow at the end of its flight. His grip on the knife was trembling. Blood kept flowing down the wound in his leg. His body was on the verge of collapse as if he would fall at any moment.

As he looked at Xiao Juan, who was approaching him step by step, his eyes were filled with fear, and he stuttered, ‘ID-don’t come over. I’m here on the emperor’s orders. If you kill me, the emperor will definitely not let you off!” Hearing this, Meng Xizhou could not help but worry.

General Dou was here on a decree. If they really killed him and others found out, the team escorting the food might very well riot.

It had to be known that Tang Guixi and the others were still waiting for the food to save their lives. They had to send the food to Liaodong County as soon as possible. There could not be any accidents on the way.

Just as Meng Xizhou was hesitating if he should persuade Duke Lang to think twice, he heard him speak slowly.

“You faked an imperial edict. You deserve to be executed. I’m enforcing the law. It’s only right for me to kill you.”

General Dou hurriedly argued, “The imperial edict is real! I didn’t fake it. If you don’t believe me, look for yourself!”

As he spoke, he pulled out the cloth.

Xiao Juan picked up the cloth with the tip of the No Return Saber and brought it close to take a look.

“It’s fake.”

General Dou was so anxious that his eyes turned red. “Impossible! The emperor personally handed this to me. There’s even the emperor’s personal seal on it!”

Xiao Juan extended his hand to the inspector.

“Let me borrow the lantern.”

The inspector’s legs went weak from fear and he fell to the ground.

He had originally thought that Duke Lang would definitely die this time, but it was completely the opposite of what he had expected. Not only was Duke Lang fine, but he had also defeated General Dou and the others.

At this moment, in the inspector’s heart, Duke Lang was scarier than a ghost.

He didn’t dare ask. He got up on all fours and handed over the lantern, trembling.

Xiao Juan placed the cloth on the lantern.

Candlelight lit a corner of the cloth. The tongue of the fire quickly spread and devoured the cloth in the blink of an eye.

Xiao Juan casually threw it away. The cloth fell to the ground and was already burned to charcoal.

General Dou’s eyes widened in disbelief. “How dare you burn the imperial edict? Do you know what kind of crime this is?” Xiao Juan said, “It’s just a fake imperial edict. So what if it’s burned?” General Dou said, “This is clearly real…”

Xiao Juan suddenly raised the No Return Saber and swung the blade at lightning speed.

General Dou stopped talking.

He subconsciously raised his hands to touch his neck.

In the end, his hand fell just as he raised it.

His neck was severed. His head slid off and hit the ground with a dull thud.

In the next moment, General Dou’s body fell with a bang, and blood quickly spread in the snow.

The fear in the inspector’s heart rose to the extreme. His pupils trembled violently. He wanted to scream but did not dare to. He could only cover his mouth with both hands.

Xiao Juan flicked the No Return Saber, and the blood bead flew out along the tip of the saber.

He looked coldly at the decapitated General Dou and said expressionlessly, “If I say this imperial edict is fake, it’s fake.”

At this moment, Meng Xizhou had already understood Duke Lang’s intentions. Whether the imperial edict was real or fake, as long as they insisted that it was fake, it was fine.

Even if someone questioned them, they could not produce decent evidence.

As long as they could successfully reach Liaodong County, other matters would not be a problem.

Thinking of this, Meng Xizhou walked toward the inspector with his saber.

General Dou and the people he had brought were all dead. Only the inspector was still alive.

Keeping him was a hidden danger. It was best to deal with him immediately.

When the inspector saw Meng Xizhou approaching step by step, the fear in his heart soared.

He hurriedly retreated, crying and pleading.

“Please, don’t kill me. I don’t know anything. I’m innocent!”

Meng Xizhou sneered. “Are you trying to deceive a three-year-old child? You deliberately lured us to this godforsaken place. Do you dare to say that you don’t know anything?”

The inspector couldn’t answer.

He struggled to defend himself.

“I was forced. General Dou insisted that I do this. He even brought up the imperial edict. I didn’t dare to disobey the edict, so I could only do as he said.”

Xiao Juan asked coldly.

“So you were the one who secretly drugged my food?”

Meng Xizhou was stunned before he flew into a rage. “How dare you poison His Highness?!”

They had eaten at the courier station when they passed it yesterday.

At that time, Xiao Juan sensed that his food had been drugged. But he didn’t show it. He just got someone to remove the food and eat the dry ration he had brought.

Xiao Juan had wondered who the person who drugged him was. Now it seemed that the answer was obvious.

The inspector hurriedly defended himself. “General Dou asked me to do this.

He said that the emperor has already ordered that you have to die. If you don’t die, we’ll all die. I was forced to have no choice but to drug your food. I already

Imow my mistake. I won’t dare to do it again. Please forgive me this time!”

Xiao Juan could not be bothered to say another word to him. After giving Meng Xizhou a look, he turned around and left.

Seeing Meng Xizhou raise his saber at him, the inspector knew that he was doomed, so he shouted for help at the top of his lungs and ran.

However, he had never practiced martial arts. Even if he tried his best, he could not compare to the agile Meng Xizhou.

In the blink of an eye, Meng Xizhou caught up to him and ended his life.

Meng Xizhou returned to the camp and called over a team of Eagle Guards to bury all these corpses and clean up the blood on the snow.

At the same time, Lo Pingsha finally caught up to the large convoy escorting the provisions tonight after traveling day and night with the people from the

Langjun Imperial Palace..
