Chapter 127 The Suppression of Shuling Prefecture (3)
Long Bin smiled slightly, unconcerned by Yan Feng's threat.
"Lord Shuling, it's not that I didn't give you a chance. My Long family army has occupied Stone City for more than four months. The fact that I haven't taken any action against you for so long is to let you choose for yourself."
"This..." Yan Feng and his son were dumbfounded.
"Don't worry, I will take care of those who stand in my way. As for you, just enjoy these last moments."
After saying that, Long Bin waved his hand, signaling the soldiers to take Yan Feng and his men away.
Yan Feng struggled and shouted, "Long Bin, you won't get away with this!"
Long Bin ignored his struggles and roars, turning to the surrendered soldiers. "Brothers, from now on, we are one family. I will lead you in battle, and together we will create our own glory!"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers shouted in unison, "Long live the King of the South!"
Long Bin nodded in satisfaction, knowing that he had successfully won over the hearts of these soldiers.
Next, what he needs to do is completely eradicate the Shuling Marquis's mansion.
However, just as Long Bin was preparing to attack the Shuling Marquis's residence, the sound of rapid hoofbeats came again.
Long Bin frowned; he hadn't expected anyone to cause trouble at this time.
A group of masked men dressed in black approached rapidly, wielding sharp blades and exuding a menacing aura. Long Bin felt a chill run down his spine; he knew these people were no ordinary individuals.
"Long Bin, your death is near!" a masked man said with a sneer.
Long Bin snorted coldly, unfazed by the masked men's threats. "Hmph, you think you can take my life? What a joke!"
After saying that, Long Bin flashed into the masked men's ranks.
His martial arts skills were superb, and his moves were lightning fast. He quickly knocked several masked men to the ground.
However, these masked men do not seem to have any intention of giving up.
They kept swarming in from all directions, trying to surround Long Bin. But Long Bin was not afraid at all; he charged left and right as if he were in an empty field.
Just then, a man dressed in magnificent clothes stepped out from among the masked men. He was tall and handsome, but his eyes gleamed with a cold light.
"Long Bin, long time no see," the man said with a smile, his voice carrying a hint of provocation and hostility.
Looking at the man in front of him, Long Bin felt a moment of disorientation, and his heart sank.
He never expected this person to appear here, much less that he would become his enemy.
This person was Xu Bin, the only confidant of the deceased Long Bin in his lifetime.
"Xu Bin, it's you...you're still alive?" Long Bin said in surprise.
The man smiled slightly, seemingly having anticipated Long Bin's reaction. "Yes, I'm not dead. And I have good news for you."
"What good news?" Long Bin asked warily.
The man didn't answer Long Bin's question directly, but instead turned to look at the masked men. "Brothers, charge! We must take Long Bin's head today!"
Upon hearing this, the masked men roared and charged towards Long Bin.
Long Bin, however, was not afraid. He brandished his long sword and engaged in a fierce battle with the masked men.
However, as time went on, Long Bin gradually felt that he was not up to the task.
These masked men were skilled in martial arts and numerous. Although he could barely withstand their attacks, he was unable to escape.
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly rang in Long Bin's ears. "Long Bin, don't be afraid! I'm here to help you!"
Upon hearing this, Long Bin looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman dressed in red rapidly approaching. The woman was slender and stunningly beautiful; it was none other than Lin Wan'er, whom he had rescued.
"Wan'er, they're only targeting me, get out of here immediately!" Long Bin exclaimed.
Long Bin's concern warmed Lin Wan'er's heart. She smiled and looked at the masked men, then snorted and said, "These rabble dare to challenge Long Bin? They're really overestimating themselves!"
After saying that, Lin Wan'er flashed into the masked men's ranks.
She was highly skilled in martial arts, wielding a whip in her right hand and a sword in her left. Her moves were as swift as lightning, like a whirlwind stirring up layers of turbulent waves, and she quickly defeated more than a dozen masked men.
Seeing this, Long Bin sighed softly, brandished his long sword, and fought alongside Lin Wan'er.
The two worked together seamlessly and quickly defeated the masked men.
Upon seeing this, Xu Bin's face turned ashen.
He never expected that Fairy Jinshan Lin Wan'er would appear here, let alone that she would become Long Bin's helper.
"You...you actually dare to join forces against me?" Xu Bin said through gritted teeth.
Long Bin sneered, "Scum like you deserves to be killed by everyone. Even if Wan'er weren't here today, I would still take your life!"
After saying that, Long Bin flashed forward and charged towards Xu Bin. The two engaged in a fierce battle.
Although the man's martial arts skills were quite good, he was on par with the dead Long Bin back then. The two were kindred spirits and once traveled the martial arts world together.
However, during a battle between good and evil, Xu Bin, blinded by lust, actually attacked the rear of the villain Long Bin for the sake of the demon's daughter. If Fu Yao hadn't arrived in time, Long Bin would have been dead long ago.
If that were the case, there wouldn't be the current Long Bin's millennium-long time travel.
Although Xu Bin's martial arts level was much higher than it was a few years ago, he was still gradually defeated under Long Bin's fierce attack.
Finally, Long Bin found an opening and thrust his sword into his chest.
Xu Bin was unable to dodge in time and was pierced through the heart by a sword.
His eyes widened in disbelief that he was still alive and well with his old friend Jian. This was what they called retribution.
Long Bin looked at Xu Bin's corpse, but his heart was not greatly disturbed.
He didn't know how the dead ghost would feel if he killed this guy, but he himself was a man who liked to settle scores quickly.
"Wan'er, let's go," Long Bin said.
Lin Wan'er smiled and nodded, then followed Long Bin toward the Shuling Marquis's residence.
At this moment, the Long family army, which had come from Stone City, had arrived.
Several generals paid their respects to the Prince of the South, which startled Lin Wan'er so much that she trembled all over.
"Are you really His Majesty?"
With a thud, Lin Wan'er knelt down and bowed three times: "This humble woman, Lin Wan'er, thanks Your Majesty for saving my life."
Long Bin laughed and said, "Alright, I did help, but I didn't save you, did I?"
"Your Majesty, it was clearly you who saved us!"
"Wan'er, even without me, the Yan family can't do anything to you."
Long Bin reached out and pulled Wan'er up, making the young girl blush and her heart race, unsure of what to do.
Looking at Lin Wan'er's shy appearance, Long Bin couldn't help but feel a surge of tenderness in his heart.
He gently patted Wan'er's shoulder and said with a smile, "Wan'er, don't be nervous."
Upon hearing this, Lin Wan'er's face flushed even more. She lowered her eyes slightly and said softly, "Your Highness, is Wan'er fortunate enough to stay by your side forever?"
Long Bin was taken aback: Could this girl have a crush on me? "Wishing all my friends a happy New Year's Day 2025, and a joyful family reunion! May your family be healthy and happy every day! Wishing you and your family good health, all the best, and that all your wishes come true in the new year!"
