Chapter 202.2
202 . 2 – Shift, Alkaid No . 3
It has to be said that Shadow is not only an experienced fighter, but he also came prepared . Although she is a little unreconciled, but Xue Qilin has to admit this .
The reason why Shadow could take the three people on all by himself, and even put them in a disadvantage for a period of time is purely because he formulated an appropriate combat strategy in advance .
Among the three people, Xue Qilin and Gong Jing are regarded as straightforward combatants, and their skills are a bit lacking . He can easily restrain them by relying on his movement style . Luo Hong, since he is from the same sect, he is fairly familiar with him and can deal with him well . Therefore, he placed Luo Hong as his first target .
As for the other two, he thinks that Xue Qilin’s unpredictable magic is more of a threat to him . As a result, after he injured Luo Hong, he immediately launched a fierce attack against the lass to contain her .
— this strategy, though simple, is very effective .
For Xue Qilin, the most important part was his response to her attack .
He must have been aware that his breath has been locked on, that no matter how he dodged, he would be hit by the spell in the next moment .
Therefore, he waited — waited for the moment when the flame spears were launched .
Because its trajectory is fixed . an arrow that has been shot is not scary .
What’s really scary is an arrow on the bowstring . As long as the arrow does not leave the bowstring, it has infinite possible trajectories, including those that pass through you .
Once the flame spears are fired, he can dodge according to their trajectory . He also expected for Xue Qilin’s spell to possess tremendous power . Using the fallout of the spell as a cover, he finally escaped without a trace .
No wonder he is hailed as the No . 1 assassin in the Hua Dynasty… Upon analyzing Shadow’s combat strategy, Xue Qilin couldn’t help sighing secretly .
However, there is something she can’t understand — why Shadow appeared here and attacked them .
If it was to assassinate one of the three people present, then even if he was a fool, he would never have chosen to do what he did just now, not to mention that he is no fool .
If he waited for the battle between Xue Qilin and the other two to start, he could seize the opportunity to launch a surprise attack . If he had enough patience, he could have even waited until the end of the battle, when the three people have spent a lot of strength, to launch a sudden attack . In any case, the two situations would have been much more advantageous to him .
Given this, Xue Qilin thinks that Shadow didn’t come here for the purpose of assassination . She concluded that the other party should have another objective .
“Oh, I hadn’t thought of it! Perhaps he had a sudden impulse to exercise his body…”
Xue Qilin pouted unhappily and landed on the ground .
Then, the situation became awkward .
Is the fight still going to take place? Xue Qilin glanced at Gong Jing and Luo Hong . Suddenly, she didn’t know how to approach this question
They noticed the gaze that landed on them and looked back . Judging by the complicated expression in their eyes, the two seem to be in the same predicament as Xue Qilin .
If it wasn’t for Shadow’s abrupt intervention, Xue Qilin might have already started a fight with them . However, just a moment ago, they joined hands to repel Shadow . It’s hard for Xue Qilin to switch gears and point her sword at Luo Hong and Gong Jing .
Having said that, Xue Qilin won’t back down either . She must take Gong Tianqing away today . She can’t wait any longer .
This is perhaps a blessing .
At this time, a team of neatly dressed soldiers rushed into the courtyard . In fact, they have been staying outside the courtyard since earlier . However, since there was no room for them to intervene in the battle just now, they didn’t set foot into the courtyard until now .
In addition to a few members of the State Guard, the rest are probably all Gong Jing’s private soldiers . It’s not surprising that he has a certain number of private soldiers in the Gong Clan .
When these people saw the terrible state of the courtyard, they were obviously shocked . Xue Qilin could even hear thoughts such as “how did this happen” being voiced, which made her, the main culprit behind this mess, feel a little embarrassed .
At that time, she didn’t think much about it . She just wanted to give the uninvited guest, Shadow, a heavy blow, and thus ended up bombing a corner of the Gong Clan into ruins .
Won’t the Gong Clan have to pay for it? Xue Qilin had this untimely thought .
Meanwhile, the soldiers have surrounded Xue Qilin in and orderly and rapid fashion . They have grim expressions, as if facing a great enemy . They are clearly rather apprehensive of Xue Qilin .
Although they are not many, only 30 people, but the crossbows in their hands can still give Xue Qilin a lot of trouble .
“This is troublesome…”
Xue Qilin looked around and scoffed .
Next, her eyes fell on a soldier who isn’t involved in her encirclement . He is probably a leader or something . His clothes are a bit different from those of the other soldiers .
When this soldier came into the courtyard, he headed straight for Gong Jing . Xue Qilin saw that he has a dignified look on his face and is moving urgently . It appears that he has something important to report to Gong Jing .
Sure enough, when he stopped in front of Gong Jing, he whispered something in Gong Jing’s ear . Xue Qilin could only vaguely hear some content .
Xue Qilin suddenly raised her eyebrows . She heard the words “Young Lady”, which is likely referring to Gong Tianqing .
Gong Jing’s eyes widened after listening to the soldier’s whispers .
What happened to Little Qing? Xue Qilin suddenly had a bad premonition .
“Really?”
After spacing out for a short moment, Gong Jing asked the soldier in a deep voice .
The soldier looked at Xue Qilin hesitantly . When he heard Gong Jing say “it’s okay”, he nodded . Upon getting his answer, Gong Jing’s face sank at once .
“Give chase!”
Gong Jing just said two words in an unquestionable tone .
The soldiers clasped his hands gravely, and then left the courtyard with the soldiers that surrounded Xue Qilin like a tide . The State Guard members looked at one another, confused .
What happened? Xue Qilin gazed at Gong Jing with an inquisitive expression in her eyes . Luo Hong seems to have the same misgivings .
Due to standing next to Gong Jing, he asked directly, “Great General Gong, did something happen?”
Gong Jing, who has wrinkled his eyebrows deeply, didn’t answer the question . Instead, he looked at Xue Qilin and uttered, “Lady Xue, please come here to talk . ”
When she heard Gong Jing invitation, the bad premonition in Xue Qilin’s heart intensified .
There’s a situation!
This thought grew strong unrestrainedly, urging Xue Qilin to walk over .
“Lady Xue, this old one is really sorry . ”
“Cut the nonsense and get to the point . ”
Feeling irritable, Xue Qilin doesn’t want to hear Gong Jing’s apology .
She is impatient to learn what happened and whether it has something to do with Gong Tianqing . She doesn’t want to waste time .
“This old one…
Next, there was a brief silence, which felt long and uncomfortable .
“– Qing’er has been abducted . ”
Due to this short and comprehensive sentence, Xue Qilin felt dizzy and almost collapsed on the ground .
Little Qing was abducted?
These words reverberated in her mind .
