The Beacon of Kyushu

"Miss Murong, your father is no match for me. You are too young!" Xiao Tallin said as he stood up and pointed at Murong Yunyao with a knife, with a smug smile on his face. More than a month ago, Murong Yunyao was almost killed by Qu Yueren with the same trick. Now she was deceived by Xiao Tallin again with the same trick. She really regretted it from the bottom of her heart.

"There are clearly less than ten of you, so where do so many soldiers come from?" Murong Yunyao asked angrily and curiously as she looked at the many Liao soldiers outside the tent.

Xiao Tallin pointed to the ground and said, "Murong Yunyao, it seems that you are really chasing us and you are really confused! Do you know where this place is?"

Murong Yunyao shook her head, looking dissatisfied and said: "I have never been here before, how can I know what kind of a place this is!"

Xiao Talin said, "This is Xiayun Ridge, and not far from here is Youzhou City! Youzhou City is the Nanjing of the Liao Dynasty, and there are more than tens of thousands of soldiers guarding the city. You have walked into a trap and are seeking your own death. How can you blame this general?"

Murong Yunyao was unfamiliar with the terrain of Liao, and she had rarely passed through towns along the way, so she still thought she was in the Song Dynasty. Now, after hearing what Xiao Talina said, she realized how ridiculous her behavior was, but it was too late. She was unwilling to just sit there and wait for death, and she knew that she would not be able to defeat the enemy with fewer people and escape from here, so she had to deliberately provoke Xiao Talina and said, "Xiao, you are so many grown men, and if you bully a girl like this, how can you still be an official in the Liao Dynasty if it gets out! If you are really capable, fight me alone. If I am still defeated by then, you can kill me or let me live!"

Hearing this, Yelusha laughed outside the tent and said, "Murong Yunyao, you have been chasing us for so long, and now you are falling into the trap and regretting it. Don't you think it is too late? Not to mention that you are the daughter of Murong Yanzhao, you deserve to die just because you want to kill the royal family in the territory of Liao! Okay, I won't waste my words with you. Come on, capture this stinky girl for me!"

Murong Yunyao would never surrender. She flashed and poked a nearby Liao soldier's eyes with her right finger. The Liao soldier reacted quickly and covered his face with his hands, trying to block Murong Yunyao's attack. Murong Yunyao smiled and took the opportunity to snatch the long sword from the Liao soldier's hand, then charged into the crowd with her toes. Even though these Liao soldiers were experienced in hundreds of battles and could fight one against a hundred on weekdays, how could they be Murong Yunyao's opponents? In an instant, blood mist filled the air and corpses were everywhere.

Seeing the tragic death of his zombies, Xiao Tallin was furious. His sword flashed like lightning and slashed directly at Murong Yunyao's vital points. His sword skills were fierce and direct, and every attack was full of great power and determination.

Yelusha's short knife danced around her like a ghost, and every swing of the knife carried a deadly threat. His knife skills were agile and cunning, always attacking when Murong Yunyao was least prepared. Yelushing's sword skills were elegant and deadly, and every sword accurately stabbed Murong Yunyao's flaws.

Murong Yunyao's swordsmanship was also extraordinary. Her sword was like a swimming dragon, agile and unpredictable. Every time she swung her sword, there was a sound of wind, as if telling of her unyielding and determination. However, facing the joint efforts of three masters, she gradually felt the pressure.

Xiao Tallin's long sword suddenly accelerated and cut off the tip of her sword. The blade light was like snow, cold and sharp, and directly hit her sword body, causing a flaw in her swordsmanship.

Yelusha's dagger took the opportunity to stab her wrist, forcing her to give up the long sword in her hand. The dagger was like a poisonous snake, cunning and deadly. Every attack made Murong Yunyao feel an unprecedented crisis. Yelushing's swordsmanship was even more deadly. He stabbed her shoulder with a sword, causing her movement to stagnate. Blood flowed down her arm.

Murong Yunyao knew that with her martial arts, it was almost impossible to escape in such a situation. Last time she was surrounded by Qu Yue soldiers, she was lucky to be rescued by a master and survived. This time she couldn't be so lucky again. She simply made up her mind, snorted coldly, and turned her head away from Xiao Talina. Yelusha drew his sword and wanted to chop off her head, but Xiao Talina waved his hand and didn't want to kill her. He just asked the Liao soldiers to tie her up and take her to an empty tent nearby.

Yelusha looked at Murong Yunyao's back and made a killing gesture to Xiao Tallin. Yelushing also walked out of the crowd at this moment and said unhappily: "Brother Xiao, since she is Murong Yanzhao's daughter and is determined to kill you, I think it's better to kill her completely."

Xiao Tallin shook his head and laughed, "Hahaha, isn't it easy to kill her? But once she dies, it will be hard to get rid of the dog thief!" Yelusha asked doubtfully, "Brother, do you mean that the dog thief will come to save her?"

Yelu Ting also said: "The bastard only cares about himself, how could he sacrifice himself to save others? Brother, stop daydreaming."

Xiao Talin glanced at the two of them and asked with a smile, "You two, what do you think Yuwen Yanyi desires most right now?"

Yelusha pondered for a moment and said, "Most likely he is trying to make a comeback and take back his original military power. Not to mention that the bastard is a traitor and can't stay under someone else's command for long. In order to prevent us from taking revenge again, he must take back the military power! But...but what does this have to do with the Murong guy? Is he still hoping that the Murong guy can mobilize his connections and regain his power?"

Xiao Tallin nodded and said, "Yes, I heard that Murong Yunyao has some friendship with the Eighth Prince. If he can rescue Murong Yunyao, he can easily get in touch with the Eighth Prince. If the Eighth Prince threatens Zhao Guangyi with the golden mace and asks him to restore Yuwen Yanyi's official position, wouldn't Yuwen Yanyi be able to fulfill his long-cherished wish? Therefore, even if he is not doing this for Murong Yunyao herself, he will definitely risk his life to save her for the Eighth Prince."

Yelusha thought for a moment and said, "It is indeed possible, but the Eighth Prince does not seem to be involved in government affairs. Will he really ask for an official position for Yuwen Yanyi?"

Yelu Ting nodded, "This is called desperately seeking medical help. If the thief comes to save people, there is still a glimmer of hope. If he doesn't come, I may really die of old age in Laojun Mountain and be a tomb keeper for the rest of my life. If I have to choose, I would rather take the risk, it's better than coming to the old man in the spring!"

Xiao Tallin smiled and said, "If he doesn't do this, then we can kill Murong Yunyao later, and there won't be any loss, right? It's just a matter of one knife. With so many of us, how can that little girl still run away?"

After Xiao Tallin's reminder, Yelusha finally turned around and laughed, "Haha, that's right, that's right! It's best if Yuwen Yanyi comes, so we can kill two birds with one stone. If he doesn't come, it won't be too late to kill Murong Yunyao! I don't believe that Murong Yunyao was tied up so tightly that she could escape under the eyes of thousands of soldiers!"

Seeing that what the two said made sense, Yelu Ting couldn't help but ask, "Brother Xiao, have you figured out how to deal with Yuwen the dog thief? Although this guy has a human face and a beast's heart, everyone can kill him, but in terms of martial arts and scheming, he really can't be underestimated. If you don't have a complete plan and act rashly, I'm afraid you will shoot yourself in the foot."

Yelusha also said with concern: "Yes, if we bring a few good fighters from the Central Plains, we will really have trouble dealing with them!"

Xiao Tallin seemed to have already made up his mind about this. He pointed to the northeast and said, "The dog thief harmed my master, so of course I lured him to Wanghai Hall and let my master kill this beast with his own hands. Only then can he vent his anger! In addition, the dog thief is highly skilled in martial arts and cannot be killed by ordinary people. There are only a handful of people in the Liao Dynasty who can defeat him. Don't we ask my master to help, but instead trouble outsiders?"

Yelusha and Yelushing nodded with a smile, their eyes all looking towards the northeast, waiting to get rid of this ungrateful villain who betrayed his teacher and ancestors in Wanghaitang one day!
