King Pingyu was speechless and could only watch the red-clothed woman who slaughtered a horde of his guards walk away safely.
When they left the mansion, the Shadow Guards disappeared on their own. Lin Ting waited outside the door and finally heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that everyone had come out safely. Since these two were siblings, it could be seen that Lin Feilu’s brother was also royalty. Queyin bowed to him with a pale face and Lin Feilu said to Xiaobai, “Send Miss Queyin back to the inn first.”
She gave the order to him, but when she looked back, the woman in red was already leaving.
Lin Feilu hurriedly chased after her, “Heroine! Will the heroine please remain for a bit!”
She turned around with an expression of impatience, but asked very seriously, “What’s the matter?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLin Feilu smiled, “Dare I ask this heroine’s name?”
The woman in red said, “My name is Yan Xin.”
Lin Feilu felt that the name sounded a bit familiar.
After thinking about it for a long time, Lin Feilu suddenly realised that this was the 10th-ranked name on the Jianghu Heroes List that Guan Xingran mentioned yesterday.
At that time, Guan Xingran also sighed,”Yan Xin is the youngest warrior on the Heroes List. Now, she is only seventeen years old, yet she has already surpassed the inheritors of various sects in a duel. She is particularly skilled in swordsmanship as she is the direct disciple of the Sect Master. I heard that she was an orphan adopted by the Master since her infancy.”
Lin Feilu couldn’t hide his excitement, “Yan Xin? Are you the junior heroine from the Thousand Blades Sect?”
Yan Xin wondered, “You know who I am? Have we met before?”
Lin Feilu said,”I have heard of you; your swordsmanship is very good!”
Yan Xin smiled.
When she smiled, her warrior-like aura gave way to a more youthful and beautiful look of a woman. A shallow dimple appeared on the left cheek, revealing a bit of her natural charm. It’s just that the smile quickly dissipated between her cold brow, and she placed her fist against her palm in front of her, “Princess, you are overpraising me.”
Wow, I can’t believe I get to meet the characters in the Heroes List.
The small flames of her passion for martial arts in Lin Feilu’s heart surged greatly. She pursed her lips and asked, “Lady Yan Xin, why did you attempt to assassinate King Pingyu?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYan Xin frowned, “This man kidnapped other people’s daughters and committed many evil deeds. Since I know of it, I can’t stand by and watch. I couldn’t kill him today due to my lack of skills, but one day, I will definitely make sure I will kill him!”
Lin Feilu said, “He is from the Royal family. If you kill him, you will be forever wanted by the court.”
Yan Xin sneered, “What am I afraid of?”
Lin Feilu was silent for a while before she took out her small notebook from her arms, “That being said, why bother troubling yourself for such a person— shouldn’t we use the law to punish him?”
She couldn’t help but grab Yan Xin’s wrist, “Come with me.”
Yan Xin was stunned for a moment, but she didn’t try to shake off Lin Feilu to let go of her.
In fact, she rarely had any form of contact with people. Every time she descended the mountain, she went straight to competing with other martial artists to learn and experience new techniques.
The Thousand Blades Sect was located in the Qin Mountains. She grew up on the mountain when she was a child with a family of violent and playful siblings. She was also addicted to martial arts and swordsmanship as her temperament was actually straightforward. Her worldview also helped her determine the rights and wrongs of the world.
Although the girl in front of her was a Princess, she was obviously not in cahoots with King Pingyu. Instead, she even rescued a girl from his clutches.
She definitely is a good person!
