Chapter 70 - 3: Conflict at the Mercenary Camp_3
Seated on the back of an Ice River Teeth Tiger was a female mercenary about seventeen or eighteen years old, with peerless beauty gracing her face.
Her delicate and beautiful nose, skin white as snow and smooth as cream, dressed in Moonlight Blue Armor; merely making an appearance, she dazzled the eyes of all around.
Lihua Xue, truly living up to the title of the most beautiful woman in the Mercenary World.
"Lord Hua Xue," two mercenaries from the Blue Crystal Mercenary Group clasped their fists in salute, "This Pill Master has brought Vice Captain Ni Qianjun's token, she is an escort alchemist from the Rebellion Mercenary Group."
"Pill Master? Are you blind as dogs? Such an ugly woman, without a hint of Dark Energy in her whole body, how could she possibly be a Pill Master? Throw her out immediately," Lihua Xue was indeed the beautiful female mercenary who, after attempting to express her love to Ni Qianjun, was cruelly rejected.
As she scolded, she gave Yue Jinghua a sidelong glance, and when she clearly saw her unsightly face, she turned her head away in displeasure. Then, she noticed Yue Jinghua's long, shapely legs, stunningly outlined beneath her half-old sheepskin boots as she straddled the horse's back.
Lihua Xue's beautiful eyes flared with anger instantly, realizing the reason Ni Qianjun had given out the ring.
Jealousy's raging flames painted Lihua Xue's eyes red as she stared at the "Berserk Lion King" ring in Yue Jinghua's hand.
This woman, whether a True Alchemist or a Fake Alchemist, must not be allowed to enter the Rebellion Mercenary Group.
"Lord Hua Xue, she has Sir Ni Qianjun's token in her hand. Today is Blue Crystal's turn on duty, and if Sir Ni Qianjun learns that we blocked his alchemist, I'm afraid..." those two mercenaries had some discernment, moreover, Vice Captain Ni Qianjun being notoriously meticulous, if he found out his guests were slighted, the consequences would be unimaginable.
The Berserk Lion King's ring was not something that could be easily replicated by an ordinary ring.
"I say she's fake, then she's fake. Ya, tear this person and horse to pieces," Lihua Xue said coldly with a sneer, leaping off the tiger's back.
A bloodthirsty roar thundered, and from the toothed tiger's mouth, two icy glints smeared with murderous intent emerged; the might of a Fifth-level Dark Beast, so intimidating that Yue Jinghua's horse beneath her became restless.
At this sight, Lihua Xue grew even more smug as she flicked her sleeve, launching two pear blossom-shaped Hidden Weapons; one hit the horse, while the other cut straight towards Yue Jinghua's leg.
Lihua Xue's Dark Power had reached the Dark Earth Realm, and those two Flower Darts were imbued with more than eighty percent of her power. The Hidden Weapon hit the horse, and blood sprayed like a mist, scattering in a burst.
The horse let out a pained whinny, a deep, bone-exposing gash now on its back. In extreme pain, it lost control, its front hooves leaped high, charging towards the toothed tiger ahead.
The toothed tiger's body released Dark Energy, and its tusks, like ivory swords, menacingly opened wide towards Yue Jinghua.
Yue Jinghua pulled back on the reins sharply, then, like a slowly rising red sun, she stood up, her long legs tracing a beautiful arc in midair, as she sent a silver thread flying from her hand.
A crisp twang, like that of a plucked string, rang out as the Pear Blossom Dart that Lihua Xue took pride in, boomeranged and flew back towards her.
Lihua Xue's eyes widened in shock, her body leapt up abruptly, her sleeves waving as Dark Energy churned like a spiritual snake.
After deflecting the Pear Blossom Dart, Yue Jinghua gathered her energy, let go of the reins, grabbed a lock of mane, and with a seemingly effortless pull, the strength was rapidly withdrawn, bringing the frenzied horse that weighed hundreds of pounds to a forceful halt. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
The toothed tiger, attuned to Lihua Xue's intentions, seeing its master fail to land a hit, was already in mid-pounce.
Its two long fangs were like Big Sabers, striking towards Yue Jinghua's neck.
With a cold smile, a chill flared in Yue Jinghua's eyes, her body soaring like a great roc, her arms flung wide, her feet just touching the horse's back, propelling her upward.
Her fists, like water droplets from a waterfall, pummeled down upon the back of the toothed tiger like a deluge.
The toothed tiger roared furiously, the sound deafening, alarming the mercenaries of the nearby camps.
"Everyone, stop," a tall figure dashed from the hills to the east, with fiery red hair, just as he saw Lihua Xue and Yue Jinghua in a standoff.
