Chapter 10 Life and Death
Queshan Mountain, which had been very peaceful for many years, was suddenly filled with shouts and screams, flames shot into the sky, screams of pain, the smell of burning flesh, and all kinds of sounds and smells filled the canyon, making it like an Asura hell.
The sixty surviving assassins had not yet recovered from the ambush of rockets when they heard shouting and killing behind them. They were instantly distracted and many of them were killed.
When they came to their senses, there were still more than thirty people left. These thirty people were all masters among masters, and their mental and martial powers were higher than those who were quickly killed.
Five of Pei Yi's men were also injured, and the remaining few were already looking tired after working for most of the night.
This is the last tough battle.
After another fierce fight, many more corpses were added to the canyon.
Pei Yi only had five personal guards left, three of them protecting Pei Yi and two protecting Fan Xingyang.
There were still three assassins left, and these three people were beyond Pei Yi's expectations. He had not expected that one day, a general who went into battle to kill the enemy would have to deal with assassins from the martial arts world.
Although he didn't recognize where these three killers came from, he could tell from their figures and weapons.
Xue Linglong is the most expensive assassin organization in the underworld, and they specialize in killing corrupt officials.
Pei Yi snorted and sneered, "I never thought that one day I, Pei Yi, would be put on the price list of Xue Linglong just like the Great Jin termite."
The leader of the assassins' face tightened, obviously he was hit in the face, but he still said with a stiff upper lip: "Xue Linglong killed corrupt officials for the stability of the Jin Dynasty and the people's lives. I killed you, General Pei, for this reason as well."
Pei Yi just thought it was funny and started laughing.
"Since you want to fight for fame and fortune, why bother to find some high-sounding excuses. In this case, I, Pei Yi, will also let Pavilion Master Xue Linglong know that not every job is something Xue Linglong is capable of taking on."
The leading assassin laughed and said, "Really? General Pei, don't brag too soon. General Pei is a martial arts expert, and we are no match for him, but General Pei is loyal to his master, and he will definitely not leave his friends to die without helping them."
When Pei Yi heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He knew something bad had happened. Something must have happened to Hua Manxi.
Sure enough, an assassin was seen holding a dagger next to Hua Manxi's neck, pushing him towards him from behind.
Seeing Pei Yi, Hua Manxi forced a smile that was uglier than crying and said, "I'm so sorry, I didn't expect they would think of sending people up the mountain to catch me. But if you can save me, I'll stay alive. If you can't save me, I'm not against dying for the sake of justice. Anyway, I won't let you risk your life to save me."
Pei Yi frowned.
Hua Manxi was the one who feared death the most. The more nervous he was, the more he talked.
He can't die either.
The Hua family, a military general, all died in the battle of Northern Frontier five years ago, leaving only this youngest son. If it were not for the face of his father and brother as military generals, if he did not want to be called a coward, and if he did not want to be unable to make any contribution to the revenge of his father and brother, he would not have gone to the battlefield of Northern Frontier as a military advisor, but stayed in the capital to live the life of a noble son surrounded by flowers and splendor.
The youngest son of the Hua family deserved such a life, and in the eyes of most people, he should live such a life.
Therefore, no matter what Hua Manxi said, Pei Yi still had to find a way to save this person.
The assassin who was holding Hua Manxi with a dagger laughed and said, "Don't brag, kid. Even your neck is shaking. You're bleeding before I even cut you. And you're still bragging. Hahaha."
Pei Yi said to the leading assassin, "Tell me what the conditions are, so that you will release him. I think the people who came to you should only buy my life, the lives of my friends, and the lives of these followers. They should not be within the scope, right?"
The leading assassin smiled and said, "General Pei is indeed a righteous man. As long as General Pei commits suicide here, we will release your followers and your friends."
Upon hearing this, Hua Manxi immediately said anxiously: "Pei Yi! I don't want you to risk your life to save me! Although I didn't go on the battlefield to kill the enemy, I am also a man of the Hua family. Men in my Hua family are not afraid of death! If you use your life to exchange for mine, I will immediately go to the underworld to find you, and I will never live with guilt!"
Pei Yi's face darkened and he shouted, "Shut up! I'm the one who makes the decision on this matter. You're still my subordinate, so you should listen to me!"
Hua Manxi immediately cursed: "Pei Yi! From this moment on, I am no longer your subordinate! I am just a military advisor in name only. In fact, you are smarter than me and you don't need me at all. You only took me to the Northern Frontier to make me feel better. After I die, you just need to remember to kill the Turks back to their hometown and never dare to set foot in the Northern Frontier again. I will die without regrets!"
The two of them started arguing back and forth. One didn't want to be rescued, while the other insisted on saving him. They couldn't reach a consensus for a while.
Hua Manxi even grabbed the hand of the person holding him hostage, as if he was about to wipe it across his neck.
Mutation happens in an instant.
The man who held Hua Manxi hostage suddenly fell to the ground, holding his throat and died.
The assassin then realized that Pei Yi and Hua Manxi's pretended argument was just a distraction to allow Hua Manxi to find the right opportunity to strike.
Hua Manxi immediately withdrew from the encirclement, and Pei Yi, Fan Xingyang and others rushed towards the three people.
The crowd started fighting again.
I only heard Hua Manxi's voice saying, "The poison given by Mr. Ye is really effective. It will take effect as long as it touches the skin and flesh. Fortunately, I took the antidote in advance. Hey, Old Pei, can you beat him? Do you need my help?"
After hearing this, the three assassins felt their scalps go numb. Not only did they have to fight with Pei Yi and the others, but they also had to guard against sneak attacks from the guy who poisoned them.
Pei Yi knew that Hua Manxi was only helping him to distract his opponent.
Hua Manxi is not an expert in using poison, and he doesn't dare to act rashly at this time, in case he accidentally hurts his own people.
The outcome of this final battle has actually been decided.
When it was almost dawn, the last three members of Xue Linglong also died at the hands of Pei Yi and others.
Of the twenty personal guards, only three were left, and they were all injured.
Apart from Hua Manxi, Pei Yi and Fan Xingyang were not in much better condition.
Just when everyone was relieved and felt that this dangerous night was finally over, they suddenly heard a chuckle: "General Pei is really good. He only brought 20 personal guards and defeated more than 100 East Palace secret guards and Blood Linglong masters. It's a good thing that the prince asked me to pick up General Pei."
Pei Yi and his companions' faces changed immediately. They all recognized this man, Zhen Gui, the commander of the guards surrounding the prince, and behind him were twenty Eastern Palace guards.
At this moment, they no longer had to think about who didn't want them to return to Beijing.
It is no wonder that the prince acted in this way. It was probably because He Zheng had tried hard to win over Pei Yi at the welcoming banquet in Northern Frontier, and the news was passed back to Kyoto. The prince was worried that the Second Prince not only won the victory in Northern Frontier, but also won over the Prince of Yan's Mansion. He did not want Pei Yi to become so powerful after returning to Beijing, so he took the initiative.
After thinking it through, Pei Yi sneered: "The prince is really a good man. He went to such great lengths to save Pei Yi's life."
