Chapter 1997: Chapter 730 - 728: As foretold, slaying the traitorous general_1

“What do you mean?”

Chen Xun’s eyes were gloomy and filled with a chilling coldness.

“Bury gunpowder under the tent.”

The adviser said with a sinister smile, “If they really don’t know what’s good for them and refuse to cooperate with the general, simply kill her and be rid of the future trouble.”

“Leave this matter to you.”

Chen Xun’s eyes shone coldly, “Be quick, and don’t let anyone discover it.”

“Yes, I’ll do it right away.”

The adviser agreed respectfully; his eyes flashed with bloodthirsty killing intent.

“There’s no need for you to go.”

A figure in blue suddenly appeared in the big tent, holding a long sword, blocking the adviser’s way.

“Who are you?”

Chen Xun was shocked to the core, almost leaping out of his chair.

“I am the person you want to kill with gunpowder.”

Lin Qingluo held the sword in her right hand, pointing it directly at Chen Xun’s heart.

“You are Lin Qingluo?”

Chen Xun subconsciously reached for the sword at his waist.

“Swish!”

A sharp sword light, filled with murderous aura, ruthlessly cut off his right arm.

“Ah!”

Chen Xun screamed in pain; his severed arm was gushing blood.

“Help! An assassin!”

The adviser’s legs went weak from fright, and he screamed uncontrollably.

“Swish!”

Lin Qingluo’s sword swiftly slashed, cutting his throat.

“Thud.”

The shrill scream came to an abrupt halt as the adviser fell to the ground, lifeless.

“There’s an assassin, protect the general!”

A group of soldiers rushed into the tent from outside; two of them wearing helmets and looking like officers stormed in, saw Chen Xun covered in blood and, without thinking, thrust their swords at Lin Qingluo.

“I do not wish to kill.”

Lin Qingluo’s eyes were cold and frosty: “But if someone seeks death, my sword will never show mercy.”

As soon as her words fell, she disappeared like a ghost, reappearing a moment later, breaking all the soldiers’ weapons in the tent with a sharp sword light.

“Hiss.”

The soldiers who had charged into the tent gasped in fear, staring at the murderous girl in blue in horror and awe.

“You all remember, my name remains unchanged, I’m the Eldest Granddaughter from the Duke of Zhen’s family, Lin Qingluo.”

Without looking at the terrified soldiers, Lin Qingluo coldly reprimanded them.

“Chen Xun has treacherous intentions and desires to rebel; I have acted on heaven’s behalf to kill this traitor and seek justice for the innocent people of the northwest suffering from the ravages of war.”@@novelbin@@

“You’re Lin Qingluo?”

“The Eldest Granddaughter of the Duke of Zhen’s family?”

“The girl who single-handedly defeated the Barbarian Warriors?”

Lin Qingluo’s name had become widely known after she had driven off the Barbarian Warriors and upheld the dignity of the Fengqi Empire.

Even in the remote northwest, the stationed soldiers had heard of her bravery and admired her greatly.

At this moment, seeing their hero in person, the soldiers who had charged into the tent couldn’t help but lay down their broken swords.

“Don’t be deceived by her.”

Chen Xun, in great pain from his severed arm, shouted furiously.

“Swish!”

With a horizontal slash, Lin Qingluo’s sharp sword mercilessly slit his throat.

“General!”

There was a moment of commotion inside the tent. Even though they respected the hero, they couldn’t help but look grief-stricken when they saw their general being killed.

“If Chen Xun doesn’t die, there will never be peace in the northwest. You all must be cautious, do not follow in his footsteps and be scorned by the world.”
