Chapter 139 Unforgiven
"Xiaoyue, wait!" Daya kept an eye on Xiaoyue's movements.
Seeing her impulsively about to rush forward, he reacted quickly, taking a step forward and grabbing Xiaoyue's arm tightly.
Xiaoyue was filled with grief and indignation. She stopped abruptly, turned around and looked at Daya. Her eyes were red and her anxiety seemed to be overflowing.
"Sister Daya, we can't just stand by and watch! Look over there, those damned bastards are actually defiling those innocent women. They are utterly depraved and unforgivable."
Daya's face turned ashen. She suppressed her anger, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down. Her gaze gradually became calm and firm.
"I'm just as angry as you are, but Xiaoyue, we mustn't act impulsively."
Look at those soldiers, they're all well-equipped, and there are so many of them.
If we rush over rashly, I'm afraid we won't be able to save them.
If those mounted warriors are skilled in martial arts, they might endanger that group as well.
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyue, though unwilling, knew that Daya was right.
She suppressed her anger and nodded: "Sister Daya, what do we do now?"
Daya pondered for a moment, then said, "Let's observe first and see if there's any opportunity to make a move."
Remember to stay calm and don't let them find us.
The two used their lightness skills again to approach the group silently.
They hid in a dense forest, observing the situation ahead through the gaps in the leaves.
The soldiers brazenly mocked the women and children along the way, their words filled with insults and provocation.
The women and children were trembling with fear and dared not resist in the slightest.
"These beasts are not human!" Xiaoyue said through gritted teeth, gripping her short sword tightly as if she were about to charge out at any moment.
Daya didn't say anything, she just stared intently ahead.
She was looking for an opportunity, a chance to kill them all and save the innocent.
Just then, a soldier suddenly stopped.
He rudely walked up to a young woman and reached out to grab her thin clothes.
The woman trembled with fear, closed her eyes in terror, and an atmosphere of despair filled the air.
"Stop!" A firm voice rang out from the crowd.
This person was Xiaoyue. She couldn't bear to see the woman about to be defiled.
Her eyes flashed with an undeniable cold light, a testament to her commitment to justice and her protection of the vulnerable.
Without further hesitation, she flashed out like a ghost, the long sword in her hand gleaming coldly in the moonlight.
The sword tip cleaved through the night sky, striking the soldier's head like lightning.
A look of astonishment flashed in the soldier's eyes, followed by boundless fear, but it was too late.
"Ah!" he screamed as his head fell to the ground, blood staining the earth red.
This sudden turn of events stunned everyone, as if time had stood still.
The soldiers stopped in their tracks, staring in astonishment at the scene before them. They had never seen such a resolute and courageous woman.
The captured women and children, however, had a glimmer of hope mixed with terror in their eyes, as if they saw a possibility of escaping.
Daya saw that Xiaoyue had also rushed out first and killed a soldier.
She also flashed forward and rushed towards another soldier.
Meanwhile, Xiaoyue darted among the soldiers as nimbly as a swallow.
The sword in his hand moved like a fluttering butterfly, each swing accompanied by the screams and falls of soldiers.
Her swordsmanship was both elegant and deadly, leaving everyone in awe.
Although the soldiers were well-equipped, they were caught off guard and at a loss when faced with this sudden attack.
They all drew their long swords, trying to defend against Daya and Xiaoyue's attacks.
But their swordsmanship was so sharp and swift that they couldn't withstand it at all.
After killing two people, Daya rushed towards the prisoners, her sword flashing coldly as the ropes binding them fell to the ground.
Daya shouted at the women and children who were being held captive, "Get out of here right now!"
Hearing her call, the women and children seemed to see a glimmer of hope.
They broke free from the soldiers' restraints and fled into the woods.
The soldiers were busy dealing with Xiaoyue's attacks and had no time to help Daya rescue the women and children.
After rescuing Da Ya, she charged towards the soldiers.
Daya and Xiaoyue fought with increasing ferocity, their figures flashing through the night like two bolts of lightning, leaving soldiers to fall wherever they went.
Just then, a general dressed in magnificent armor, as if emerging from the smoke of battle, suddenly stood at the very front of the ranks.
He held a long, gleaming spear in his hand, his eyes piercing.
He seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, looking directly at Daya and Xiaoyue, his voice deep and full of authority.
"Where did this madman come from? Doesn't he know who we are? How dare he cause trouble here?"
A resolute glint flashed in Xiaoyue's eyes. Without hesitation, she stepped forward, her sword tip like the brightest star in the night sky, aimed directly at the general's vitals.
"Today, let your blood wash away your sins."
Her voice contained boundless anger and unwavering determination.
It was as if they wanted to cut off all injustice and oppression at once.
But this general was no ordinary man; his martial arts skills were extraordinary.
The spear in his hand was like a dragon emerging from the sea, carrying the force of thunder, and easily neutralized Xiaoyue's fierce attack.
The force of the spear was so great that Xiaoyue staggered several steps in the air before she could barely regain her balance.
But she did not back down because of this; instead, it fueled her fighting spirit even more.
He charged toward the general again at an even faster speed, his sword flashing like a tapestry, each strike containing deadly intent.
Seeing this, Daya immediately joined the battle.
Her swordsmanship was completely different from that of Ōgetsu, yet they complemented each other perfectly, and the two worked together seamlessly.
As elegant and deadly as a dance, it forced the general to take it seriously and feel unprecedented pressure.
Just then, several more knights arrived with a whoosh and joined the melee.
Seeing this, Daya and Xiaoyue quickly retreated to the side.
"Who exactly are you people?" The general stared wide-eyed at Da Ya and her companion.
The authoritative voice was laced with deep doubt and barely contained anger.
He had fought countless battles on the battlefield for many years, but he had never encountered an opponent as perfectly in sync and unfathomably powerful as the one before him.
When confronted by the general, Daya showed no fear, her eyes firm and bright.
She replied righteously, "We are the righteous people of the Spirit Kingdom."
We will never allow you, this group of heartless and wicked thugs, to run rampant on our land, oppressing our kind and innocent people!
Daya's voice was clear and melodious, like a nightingale singing in a valley, echoing for a long time in the quiet night sky.
Upon hearing this, the general couldn't help but sneer, his face full of mockery.
A slight upturn of his lips revealed a contemptuous smile.
"A righteous person? Hmph! He's just putting on a show of self-aggrandizement."
You two greenhorn girls dare to spout such nonsense and call yourselves righteous people? It's utterly laughable.
"Today, I, the general, will teach you a lesson and show you what true strength is!"
After saying this, the general gripped his spear tightly with both hands, swung it forward sharply, and the tip of the spear flashed with a cold light, pointing directly at Daya.
In an instant, the general moved like lightning, transforming into a black shadow and rushing towards Daya.
His speed was so fast that it was like a ghost, making it impossible for anyone to see his movements.
In the blink of an eye, he had rushed in front of Da Ya, thrusting out his spear and creating a sharp gust of wind.
The spear danced rapidly through the air, tearing the air apart and emitting sharp whistling sounds wherever it passed.
The other subordinates followed suit and launched a fierce attack on Xiaoyue.
An even fiercer battle quietly unfolded under the cover of night.
Daya and Xiaoyue each faced off against the general and his men. Their swordsmanship was sharp and swift, and every move was perfectly timed, making it impossible for the soldiers to get close.
With the enhancement of the Linglong Divine Skill, their attacks became even more ferocious.
Even the generals gradually felt their strength waning, the speed at which they swung their spears began to slow, and their armor was left with several shocking cracks by Daya's sword.
Xiaoyue, with her agile movements and exquisite swordsmanship, has already defeated several enemies in succession.
Her eyes gleamed with the light of victory, but her vigilance remained undiminished.
