Chapter 501: Chapter 500: Last Time, I Fooled You
The battle was about to erupt.
Jiang Tao no longer saw the Grand Princess wielding her weapon.
What Long Xinghe now held in her hand was a short blade.
She wasn’t really skilled with a sword, after all, she wasn’t truly a person from ancient times.
Why Chu Qianli could learn such advanced martial arts, she didn’t know, but as a fellow time-traveler, she had only studied martial arts for a few months.
Her Inner Strength was poor, her Sword Qi weak, so she opted for a blade instead.
She could only fight at close quarters!
In an unguarded moment, her arm was suddenly slashed, leaving behind a wound.
"How dare you!" Jiang Tao exclaimed in alarm, immediately drawing his sword to protect Long Xinghe.
"She is the only born daughter of the Empress, her own flesh and blood! Even if Her Majesty ordered people to be captured, she wouldn’t actually want her own daughter’s life!"
"Whoever hurts the Grand Princess today, once she and Her Majesty reconcile, you will inevitably face a death sentence!"
At those words, everyone indeed hesitated for a moment.
Just moments ago, upon seeing the Grand Princess kill someone from Anshang Palace, they had all been immensely shocked.
But now, with this reminder, they finally remembered that the Grand Princess was the Empress’s only daughter.
A tiger would not eat its cubs; now, they might be angry enough to eliminate the Grand Princess, but once the anger subsided, who knew if the Empress would regret it?
If the Empress remembered the Grand Princess’s virtues and wanted her daughter back, then any guard who had hurt or even killed the Grand Princess would certainly meet a grim end.
At that, the guards dared not attack Long Xinghe any further.
But they launched even fiercer attacks against Jiang Tao and his people.
"Grand Princess, go back to them, protect yourself, and leave this place to me!" Jiang Tao urged urgently.
Long Xinghe was harboring anger.
If her martial arts skills were as formidable as Chu Qianli’s, she could fight shoulder to shoulder with her people!
But she could only watch, wide-eyed, as her comrades were shedding blood like a river!
Long Xinghe leaped up, instantly retreating several steps.
Seeing her brothers still valiantly fighting in the bloodshed, she shouted, "You are all my good brothers! If we survive today, from now on, you will all be the people I trust the most!"
Her brothers, one by one, fought with high spirits; even those who were injured gripped their long swords and continued to fight!
"What I owe you today, in the future, I will repay tenfold!"
It must be said, Long Xinghe was definitely a leader who knew how to win hearts.
Her words resonated in every brother’s ears, immediately boosting morale!
She was the esteemed Grand Princess, and no matter whether they truly had the chance to be repaid by the Grand Princess in the future while alive,
at least at this moment, the Grand Princess was truly grateful to them.
For that gratitude alone, even death in battle was worth it!
"Brothers, we swear to protect the Princess with our lives!" Jiang Tao declared resolutely.
The guards of the Princess Residence, grinding their teeth, loudly echoed, "We swear to protect the Princess with our lives!"
Long Xinghe had already retreated beyond the circle of combat, and as she saw her brothers getting injured and falling one by one but still rising to fight, she couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion welling up in her eyes.
If they didn’t die today, from now on, they would all be her dearest brothers.
That was not just an empty promise!
Finally, with gritted teeth, she turned and ran toward the west wing of the courtyard.
Around the courtyard, all her Fuso Ninjas were stationed; this was the Princess Residence’s last line of defense.
But the number of Imperial Guards was too great; some had already broken through.
Although her ninjas were formidable, some were injured and fell, slain amidst the chaos of rampant blades.
Long Xinghe hurried to the bedroom door.
Tie Xin still held a long sword, guarding outside the door.
Those Imperial Guards hadn’t yet managed to reach this spot.
"Grand Princess..." Tie Xin, not knowing the exact situation outside, could only guess that it must be extremely dire.
Long Xinghe gave him a look, then opened the door to the room.
Tie Xin considered stopping her, but then thought better of it and gave up.
This Grand Princess, in the beginning, Tie Xin had regarded her as an enemy.
Yet, time and again, she had risked her life for the Prince, seemingly without a second thought.
Truth be told, at this moment, Tie Xin had grown quite trusting of her.
Having differing political views was simply because each served their own master; it didn’t represent the person’s character.
At least when it came to protecting the Prince, the Grand Princess was truly sincere.
Long Xinghe stepped inside, where the smell of blood was pungent.
Her heart suddenly clenched once again with immense distress.
But right now, she was utterly helpless.
She didn’t even dare to step even half a step nearer to the screen.
She could only stand far back at the door, afraid that entering might bring Wuya any germs.
But she was really out of options.
"Ali, I’ve run out of bullets!" she said hoarsely, not daring to raise her voice too high.
Chu Qianli had said that her bullets were endless, but she had no idea how Chu Qianli managed that.
But at this moment, she could only rely on him.
Chu Qianli was still performing surgery on Feng Wuya, at a critical juncture where she couldn’t afford any distractions.
Long Xinghe was very aware of this, so she could only stand quietly by the door, waiting.
Waiting for Chu Qianli to spare a moment to throw her some bullets.
That wait lasted an incense stick’s time.
Suddenly, with a snap, finally, something landed outside the screen.
A box of bullets! It was the kind that Chu Qianli used to use regularly, with at least five clips of bullets in it!
She indeed had many bullets on her!
"Thank you!" Long Xinghe immediately went over, picked up the bullets, and turned to leave.
Behind her, Chu Qianli’s hoarse voice came through: "My bullets aren’t endless, I lied last time, use them sparingly!"
Long Xinghe paused briefly, aware in her heart that having endless bullets was impossible.
She spoke softly, "I know! Thank you!"
Then she left the room, jumping up and landing on the rooftop.
Chu Qianli was slightly distracted.
This Long Xinghe, whether in leading a war or in learning ability, was exceedingly exceptional.
Of course, to be her senior sister, one could not be ordinary.
She just didn’t have as good fortune as Chu Qianli, who had received many people’s Inner Strength; otherwise, she would undoubtedly be a top-level master by now.
However, one thing was certain: Long Xinghe was absolutely a sharpshooter.
In just a moment, Chu Qianli refocused her attention.
"Yexuan, don’t stop the flow of Inner Strength, you must protect his heart meridian."
Feng Yexuan closed his eyes and nodded, "Mhm."
Inside, all was quiet.
Outside, however, the threat of death loomed everywhere.
The Imperial Guards still had many men, and they were breaking in.
Around them, the Fuso Ninjas also began to fall.
Long Xinghe loaded her gun with the bullets, even though the bullet model was a bit different. But since she had usually fought alongside Chu Qianli,
their weapons, whether pistols or bullets, could be interchanged despite slight differences in model.
With a snap, the bullet was chambered!
Below, Tie Xin was about to draw her sword to meet the advancing Imperial Guards, but suddenly a loud bang rang out.
The guard’s forehead sprouted a large, bloody hole, and with a thud, he fell to the ground.
