The man immediately moved to another place. His eyes stared intently at Li Jihyun. Flashes of hatred and anger were emanating from his eyes. The sound of his teeth was heard.
"Girl ******! How dare you interfere," the man pointed his sword at Li Jihyun. The corner of his lips lifted.
"It's none of your business" Li Jihyun said thrusting forward. The sword in his hand was swinging towards that person's arm. But his nimble movements made the attack go unnoticed. Li Jihyun spun around swinging once more the sword in hand.
Ting!
The two swords clashed against each other. Their eyes stared at each other. Li Jihyun's eyebrows shot up next to her. "So you're the head of the emperor's shadow army?" li Jihyun asked making her eyes widen.
He pushed Li Jihyun's sword until the girl jumped back. Breathing gasps. Hmh! He knows my identity. But how can it be? he looked at Li Jihyun.
The girl looks calm. "Hey concubine of the captives!" he called her half screaming. "You think you can beat me that easily? I'm different from those useless men" said Li Jihyun.
"Your mouth is so insolent. How dare you curse me who is a great concubine. Ck! It seems like you are tired of living," Li Jihyun said with glaring eyes. But the man was not afraid and laughed.
"Great concubine? Ck! Stop dreaming of a bad girl. You don't deserve to be in that position" he said, jumping high. The sword was raised to head height.
Li Jihyun looked up and raised her sword. That person's sword hit Li Jihyun's sword. His voice sounded bitter in the ear. Li Jihyun's feet fell slightly into the ground. "Give up the captive concubine" he said with a sigh. Keep pressing the sword with all his might.
Li Jihyun's legs continued to fall even deeper below the knees. Li Jihyun clenched her jaws.
He swung the sword making the person's body flung a little far away. His shoulders rose down with a quick hunting breath. Li Jihyun climbed to the higher ground.
He swung his sword while continuing to run. The man attacked and defended. They sell each other attacks. No one gave up. The loud sound of the sword overcame the sound of the roar of their breath that was continuously fighting nonstop.
Li Jihyun turned her sword and precisely hit the sword eye of that person. He threw it at head level. Seeing his sword on the verge of rushing air the person was about to grab it.
Li Jihyun who saw the gap instantly seized the opportunity. He grabbed one of the man's legs until it was cut off. That person was suffocating in shock and had not even had the chance to grab his sword. He immediately fell to the ground. Blood poured out and splattered on the ground.
Li Jihyun smiled with satisfaction. "Based on the fucking girl! I .... ARGHH!"
One stab stabbed him in the stomach. He screamed in pain while coughing blood. His eyes pushyly stared at Li Jihyun who was grinning. "Ah, I'm curious. How did the emperor feel when he knew one by one his men died in my hands?" li Jihyun asked glanced at the middle-aged man in front of her.
"Uncle Li hung his body on the square," Li Jihyun said as she breathed the warden's head.
"Did? You think the emperor will just shut up? After he comes home later you will definitely die immediately," he said with confidence. Li Jihyun scratched her ear with her little fingers. His eyes looked down at the man.
"Whisper! Want to die too much talk," said Li Jihyun pulled out her sword and pierced right into the heart of the person. In an instant he immediately took his last breath.
"Uncle didn't want to say anything?" li Jihyun asked looking at the warden's head that was still standing in his place.
"What am I supposed to tell you? My life has just been threatened just because we have blood ties" he said, putting a sword in his hand into the sheath.
...
Three days later on a clear day. Li Jihyun was sitting casually on the porch of the pavilion. He seemed to be enjoying a warm cup of tea. "Your great concubine," called Zhang Liu in a step.
Li Jihyun's head fell towards him. He put the tea cup on the table. His eyes glanced at Ceng who was standing at the back. "Ceng leave us," said Li Jihyun who was taken quickly by Ceng.
The dayang immediately left while glancing at Zhang Liu and Li Jihyun. They look very close. It seemed like the rumors were indeed true, Inner Ceng before going away from the terrace.
"What's the matter, Mr Zhang?" li Jihyun asked curiously. Zhang Liu took a breath. Regulating his rapid breathing. A sweat the size of corn seeds soaks the forehead.
"What are you killing ..." Zhang Liu's pause glanced left and right. Afraid someone would listen to them.
"You mean that guy? I killed him already" Li Jihyun said lightly. Zhang Liu's eyes were wide in shock. "But it's a pity that I didn't get any information from him. He was raving too much," continued Li Jihyun lightly grabbing the teacup and sipping it.
Zhang Liu swallowed. "You serious?"
"Indeed my face looks joking," said Li Jihyun who was shaken by Zhang Liu. He scooped a rough face while exhaling a rough breath.
"I didn't expect you to do it alone."
Li Jihyun took another sip of her tea until she was left unresponsive. He took a short breath. Put a tea cup on the table. "What business did you come here for?" li Jihyun asked looking at him.
Zhang Liu sighed again. This time it sounds heavy. "I got a letter from the emperor that he would soon return to the palace."
Li Jihyun clenched her hands. "So he's home. When will he arrive?"
"I think it's glorious tomorrow."
"Prepare everything tomorrow. We must overthrow Long Jian from the singasana."
"Okay noble," said Zhang Liu bowed respectfully.
"We can finally meet Long Jian," murmured Li Jihyun to the point of breaking her hair.
....
The bright shining sun woke the people of Qing Long empire. Everything is as usual. As Zhang Liu predicted last night, Long Jian's entourage returned from the battlefield. Looks like the man in armor won the battle. Li Jihyun who was observing from a distance smiled faintly. "Don't let them in" Li Jihyun said.
He stared at the large number of soldiers. "You guys get ready. We will attack him immediately" he said, who was taken by newly appointed general Li Jihyun.
Long Jian's entourage galloped forward towards the palace. People who saw from a distance immediately ran panting. Hiding in the house peeking out of the window grille. Long Jian was known to be a tyrant who would not hesitate to kill anyone who was considered a hindrance.
