Chapter 1 The Unexpected Turn

At that moment, an accident occurred on the field!

Several dancing beauties, twirling and swaying, suddenly produced daggers from their sleeves and stabbed at the tyrant above.

"Danger!"

Bai Xiao, seeing the beautiful NPC companions suddenly turn violent, couldn't help but sweat for them.

The tyrant kicked over the wine table in front of him, smashing it directly at the beauties who were stabbing him. The Chu Rong generals drinking on both sides immediately sobered up at the sight.

Although they didn't carry knives, their brute strength alone was unmatched by the delicate beauties. They directly overturned the tables in front of them and smashed them at the beauties nearby!

They showed no mercy. Anyone who was hit would die on the spot.

Others went forward empty-handed, snatching the daggers from the beauties' hands and snapping their necks in an instant. The sudden change frightened everyone present.

In the blink of an eye, several assassinating beauties fell to the ground, lifeless.

"This..."

Lu Xiaoyao's eyes widened. Weren't they two the assassins? What was going on with these others?

Bai Xiao suddenly looked at the merchant in front of them, only to see that the other party's face was not one of fear, but of stunned realization followed by a savage expression.

Seeing this, a sharp long knife was drawn from under his wide sleeves. The beauties beside him also acted in unison, drawing swords from under their skirts and launching an uprising!

Except for the tyrant, almost no one at the banquet carried weapons, and the tyrant's short knife had just left his side after injuring someone. Now was the best time for them to assassinate him!

"Should we also..."

In an instant, the scene became chaotic again!

In such a chaotic banquet scene, Lu Xiaoyao naturally thought of taking advantage of the situation. She turned to look at Bai Xiao, but saw her eyes flashing, and she didn't make a move.

The plan was good, but their skills were lacking.

This was the fatal flaw in this group's assassination attempt!

Bai Xiao saw their shortcomings at a glance, but this scene was indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to assassinate the tyrant.

Just as she hesitated, she saw out of the corner of her eye that soldiers in the distance were rushing towards them.

It was too late!

Opportunity knocks but once!

"Hide!"

This was the last time Lu Xiaoyao looked Bai Xiao in the eye. The next second, she was pushed out by the other party...

Charlie and Julian, who had been stunned for a moment by the assassination scene, were also holding wine glasses, seemingly restraining their impulses, when suddenly a "beauty" fell from the sky.

Whether out of caution or being too much of a straight man, Bai Xiao pushed her straight into Julian's arms, but unexpectedly, the other party leaned back and opened his legs. Lu Xiaoyao sat directly on the air between his legs.

With a solid "thump," she landed on the ground. The sound was crisp!

"Ah... uh!"

Before Lu Xiaoyao could finish a complete sentence, her tailbone feeling like it had snapped, a large hand quickly pressed down on her mouth and pushed her head down.

Immediately, Lu Xiaoyao only felt a darkness before her eyes. Her body felt like it was hit twice by two large iron pillars on either side, and her whole body seemed to be squeezed into an even smaller space.

The "large iron pillars" on both sides of her body completely restricted her range of motion.

Lu Xiaoyao, with her head against the ground and her butt sticking up: ??

At present, the envoys seemed to be completely unaffected, sitting there with expressions of surprise and fear at the sudden appearance of assassins at the banquet.

Bai Xiao had also joined the assassination team.

The blood-covered merchant saw Bai Xiao's actions, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes. Bai Xiao nodded secretly to the other party.

That's right, she and Lu Xiaoyao were also assassins, but not part of the merchant's forces. On the contrary, when they received the order, they only thought that the fat, greasy merchant in front of them was a coward who was afraid of death, and they would hide in his team of beauties to assassinate the tyrant.

However, Bai Xiao and the others didn't know that their entire team was made up of assassins!

Bai Xiao seemed to have eyes in the back of her head. She kicked away a scimitar that suddenly came from behind with a spinning kick, and using the force of the turn, she used the dagger in her hand to directly slit the throat of the approaching soldier.

In an instant, blood splattered on Bai Xiao's face, adding a touch of glamour.

At the same time, Bai Xiao directly snatched the more lethal scimitar from the other party's hand.

Bai Xiao, who had snatched the scimitar, raised her eyes and looked at the soldiers constantly rushing out from both sides. The scenes of people being killed and captured around her happened in an instant. Bai Xiao's eyes darkened, and she glanced at the tyrant sitting behind her and the bright and beautiful woman beside him.

This time, she was afraid it would be difficult to end well!

Regardless of whether she succeeded in the assassination or not, she understood that her ending in this mission would not be good. It was just... the momentary change just now was really too tempting!

Suddenly, no one expected that the slender and tall beauty who had not been very noticeable before would suddenly make a move, killing several soldiers in a row, snatching a scimitar, and rushing straight towards the tyrant.

Bai Xiao rushed to the front of the platform where the tyrant was sitting in a few steps, and fought with the general who had been blocking the tyrant for a long time. For a time, it was difficult to tell who was better.

"That skill, beautiful!" Charlie watched the figure of Bai Xiao fighting, and Julian nodded in agreement, saying, "She must have passed the combat class with full marks."

"Eh?" Charlie was stunned. "A player?"

Julian: ...? You didn't see that?

Just as the two were communicating, Bai Xiao made a feint, shaking off the general beside her. What people didn't expect was that she actually swung the scimitar directly towards Mingmei's head!

Mingmei: ???

[Host!]

Mingmei was about to raise her hand when she felt a flash in front of her eyes, and a figure stood in front of her. She looked up and met the tyrant's eyes. The scimitar directly hit his shoulder blade!

"Your Majesty!"

The angry voices of the Chu Rong soldiers came from around. Then, several sounds of knives piercing flesh were heard. Because the other party was blocking in front of her, Mingmei didn't see the picture, but she could imagine Bai Xiao's ending.

"Don't look!"

A large hand, carrying a faint fragrance mixed with a faint smell of blood, covered Mingmei's eyes. Mingmei opened her mouth to say something, but then she heard several desperate roars—

"Bastards! You spineless officials! You're still sitting there at this time!"

"The country is broken, you ignore the 300,000 soldiers who are guarding Yan Bei, and only know about the power struggles in the court! Did the innocent people who died in Yan Bei allow you to sit here and sign surrender treaties?!"

Several sounds of cloth tearing entered Mingmei's ears. The merchant's voice lowered, and finally he struggled again to shout in his unskilled Chu Rong language:

"The person who ordered me... is a Wang Gong Guizu (royal and noble) of Hua Liang! They have countless gold, and I was blinded by, by money before I acted... Your Majesty, Your Majesty, spare my life, hahahahaha... uh!"

Kill those parasites and bury them with Hua Liang.

In the darkness, Lu Xiaoyao's vision was completely black. It took her a long time to realize that she seemed to have been stuffed under a table.

When a person loses their sight, their other senses become incredibly sharp. The movements outside fell into Lu Xiaoyao's ears without missing a beat.

From the beginning, she could only hear a jumble of noise, until the scene gradually quieted down. It was at this time that Lu Xiaoyao heard the merchant's final roar before his death...
