The carriage moved slowly, and Long Yue was thinking about what to cook tonight.

She had quite good cooking skills, and that woman’s skills were also good. So, why not have a cooking competition tonight?

In these boring days, this would be a good way to pass the time.

"Ah, ah, ah!"

Suddenly, the driver You’er shouted loudly, and even started kicking the carriage board. Long Yue knew something was wrong and quickly poked out her head.

You’er pointed forward.

From here, they could vaguely see a row of small wooden houses, and several burly men carrying knives were entering the houses.

"No good, a home invasion robbery? No, that’s not right, someone wants to kill her!"

Long Yue’s eyes suddenly became sharp. In these small wooden houses in the woods, what money could be stolen? Since it’s not money, it must be for murder!

After all, Long Yue was the daughter of a military family, her insight and temperament were naturally above average. She grabbed the long whip in the carriage and rushed forward.

What she was best at was not Blade Technique, but whip skills!

"Snap!"

The long whip could reach people. Long Yue rushed forward a few steps, swung the whip, and one of the men on the outside was hit by it, howling miserably.

"Boss, there’s someone! Ugh..."

The burly man only shouted once before Long Yue’s whip wrapped around his neck. She pulled back hard, and instantly, the man’s throat was strangled, and he was choked to death.

Inside the house, the murderer pulled the blood-stained long knife from Yun Yan’s body. He was about to strike again when he heard a voice from outside.

"Damn it, if there’s someone, just kill them! Do you need to report it?"

The man cursed and was about to continue his work when he heard two more screams from outside.

"Big brother, ah..."

"Snap!"

This time he heard it clearly, there was really someone, and it seemed like the sound of a whip.

There was a subordinate behind him, and the two of them exchanged a glance and immediately rushed out.

A total of five people had come this time, one was looking out on the outside, two were blocking the front and back doors, and then there was the leader and his subordinate inside.

At this moment, the two looking out and blocking the doors had been choked to death by Long Yue using the whip.

The burly man and his subordinate rushed out, seeing the three corpses on the ground with their eyes red, those were his brothers!

"Woman, you’ve really infuriated me, go to hell!"

He raised the long knife and slashed at Long Yue.

Long Yue was not afraid at all, and continued to skillfully wield her whip, attacking.

The other man tried to attack Long Yue from the side, but You’er rushed forward, picked up a long knife dropped by the burly men, rolled, and skillfully slashed across.

"Ah—"

From there came the subordinate’s wretched scream, his legs were chopped off, causing him to lose balance and fall to the ground, stabbing himself with his own knife.

This death was truly a pathetic way to die!

"Ah— I’ll kill you all!"

The burly man saw all his brothers die miserably, and he trembled with rage, brandishing his knife toward Long Yue!

He was a man of great strength, especially his attacks when angry were vicious. Long Yue knew she couldn’t match him head-on and backed up a few steps to weaken his momentum.

Then, taking advantage when he paused and his strength subsided, she lashed out with the whip!

"Snap!"

The whip was very fast, precise in angle, hitting the man in the eye, making him scream and swing his knife blindly toward Long Yue. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝐰𝚎𝕓𝐧𝚘𝘃𝗲𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝕞

However, his eyes were a bloody mess, unable to see anything.

You’er cleverly stabbed him from behind, Long Yue kicked him from the front, and then strangled him with her whip.

Just like that, all five assassins were killed!

"Go, let’s go in and check!"

Long Yue couldn’t bother to celebrate, quickly taking You’er inside to check on the woman.

Before entering, a pungent smell of blood wafted to their faces.

Long Yue’s heart sank immediately. When she saw the mess in the house, the floor covered in blood, she knew it was too late.

Her gaze moved to the bloodied woman, quickly going up to support her, but the woman already had more air going out than coming in.

She groaned in pain, clutching Long Yue’s hand.

Long Yue consoled, "Don’t worry, it will be okay, let me check the wound first!"

"No... no... it’s no use, it’s too late..."

Yun Yan bit her red lip, her breathing ragged, every word a torment.

Long Yue tightened her grip on Yun Yan’s hand, "Don’t give up, I’m a doctor, I can heal you!"

Long Yue looked at the wound that had pierced through, blood continuously flowing out, already draining half of her body’s blood.

In such a situation, it was almost incurable.

However, she had seen her master save someone with even worse injuries, bringing him back to life, so Long Yue wanted to try.

"You’er, quickly go boil water, hot water, and also, bring my medical kit!"

As Long Yue instructed You’er, Yun Yan used all her strength to grab her hand, "No, it’s useless, it’s her... it’s them, they won’t spare me..."

"Them? Who are they? Why do they want to kill you?"

Long Yue was puzzled, and while You’er was busy, she tore off a large piece of cloth, intending to stop Yun Yan’s bleeding.

If this keeps flowing, there’s no way to survive.

But Yun Yan only shook her head, "I can’t live, I see my mother coming to me..."

"No, you have to hold on!"

Long Yue was anxious, this was the first person she met in Daliang, even though they had only known each other for less than a day, they had a good feeling about each other.

Long Yue also couldn’t bear to see her life end like this.

But, her injuries were really too severe, she had no confidence.

Yun Yan gave a knowing smile, her eyes looking dreamily at Long Yue, "My name is Yun Yan, Wei Yunyan, I am Duke Wei’s daughter..."

Long Yue was taken aback, Duke Wei?

She was Duke Wei’s daughter? Isn’t she a noble girl?

But why was she living in such a small place?

But Long Yue quickly understood, there must be a story behind it.

"My mother... was just an ordinary maid, Duke Wei... assaulted her after getting drunk, but fearing the main wife, he drove us to the countryside... These years, we lived quietly without fighting, but the main wife... never let us go. Five years ago, my mother was pushed off the mountain and shattered into pieces, dying without a complete body, this time, the one who came to kill me is also... sent by the main wife..."

As Yun Yan spoke, tears streamed from her eyes, she clutched Long Yue’s hand, sobbing, "I know, you’re not ordinary people, coming to Daliang... you must have something to do, sister... meeting you is fate, if there’s a chance in the future... remember... avenge... me..."

With the last syllable, Yun Yan released her hand and closed her eyes forever.

Long Yue stood there dazed, even though she had stopped breathing, tears still welled up in her eyes.

For all these years, she must have lived a hard and bitter life!
