Chapter 445: Domineering and Protective
Although they were also called cavalry, in front of the most powerful Qin family cavalry of the Great Zhou, they were not even qualified to carry shoes.
After all, this was a legendary army that had defeated 100,000 soldiers of the Northern Yan with 20,000 iron cavalry. Who could compete with them?!
The cavalry that Xiao Duye brought originally looked quite majestic. Now that the Qin family’s army arrived, they were instantly reduced to ashes.
The mountain path was rugged, but the Qin family’s iron cavalry was not chaotic at all. The sound of horse hooves and the friction of armor intersected, producing a murderous aura!
The night wind seemed to have stopped.
Xiao Duye’s cavalry swallowed, and beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
Xiao Duye’s situation was not much better.
He looked at Qin Canglan, who was like a dark night Asura, and then at the 3,000 armored horses behind him. Smelling the rust and blood that seemed to have come from the battlefield, his scalp went numb.
He didn’t understand how this could happen.
Didn’t they say that Qin Canglan would definitely come forward alone to die?
Why did he bring so many troops?
What did the White Lotus Society do?!
In fact, the White Lotus Society’s initial plan was indeed to let Qin Canglan die alone.
They were also completely confident that Qin Canglan would definitely do as they said.
Because—
After the two men in black from the White Lotus Society kidnapped Su Xiaoxiao, they took off Su Xiaoxiao’s headband and handed a map that had been drawn to another companion, asking him to bring the thing and a sentence to Qin Canglan.
That person went to the Protector Duke’s Estate first.
“My Old Master isn’t here!”
“He won’t be back tonight either!” Steward Cen said truthfully.
That person went to Pear Blossom Lane next.
It was Xiaohu who opened the door.
Xiaohu looked at the stranger at the door and asked, “Who are you looking
He asked calmly, “Is Qin Canglan around?” Xiaohu tilted his head. “Who’s Qin Gunnan?”
He frowned. “The old Protector Duke.”
Xiaohu looked at him in a daze. “Old Pot of Puke? What is that?”
He was wearing a full-face mask, and his voice was a little muffled. In addition, Xiaohu was already confused when he heard things. After a long time, he did not understand what he was talking about.
After a long time of whistling in the wind, he could not do it.
When Zhong Shan came over from behind, Xiaohu went to the house to play.
He handed the letter with the headband and map to Zhong Shan and instructed coldly, “Tell Qin Canglan to come alone. Otherwise, we shall kill that girl!” With that, he adjusted the mask on his face and left murderously.
That was the crux of the problem.
Zhong Shan was deaf. He relied on reading lips to communicate with others.
What was Zhong Shan reading if this person slapped a big mask on his face; ?
Zhong Shan did not know that he had spoken at all.
Zhong Shan did not even know who this letter was for.
He “heard” Xiaohu say to Dahu and Erhu, “That person is here to borrow the pot. He wants the old pot.”
Zhong Shan gave the letter to Su Cheng.
When ordinary people saw such a letter, their first reaction would be that the owner of the headband had been kidnapped.
Su Cheng’s thinking was a tad warped, to say the least. He slapped his thigh. “I know! Daya must have gotten someone to send this over! She’s telling us that that group of people is hiding in this mountain and wants us to quickly bring people to meet her! If we’re late, that group of people will run away!” Qin Canglan turned around and set off with 3,000 iron cavalry!
One dared to say it, and the other dared to believe it.
The 3,000 iron cavalry approached.
Qin Canglan raised his hand indifferently, and the three thousand iron cavalry stopped in unison. The entire mountain fell silent.
The wind that whistled through the mountain stream was like a ghost that made one shiver.
Xiao Duye looked at the Qin family’s iron cavalry that was still emitting a powerful killing intent and truly felt substantial pressure.
As for Qin Canglan, although he was already past sixty years old, his Divine General aura was even more terrifying than the entire army.
Xiao Duye’s back broke out in cold sweat.
This was too different from the plan…
Three thousand cavalry… would devour those people from the White Lotus Society until nothing was left..
His gaze quietly landed on Su Xiaoxiao.
If this girl did not escape and was still a hostage in the hands of the White Lotus Society, so what if 30,000 came, let alone 3,000?
However, this hostage was gone…
Behind Su Xiaoxiao, a sinister-looking cavalryman slowly pulled out the dagger from his sleeve.
Xiao Duye was in front of Su Xiaoxiao, so he could naturally see it at a glance. However, Qin Canglan was directly opposite Su Xiaoxiao, so he should not be able to see her…
As long as he held this girl hostage, everything would…
The cavalry raised his dagger and stabbed Su Xiaoxiao’s neck.
Qin Canglan waved one arm and a spear shot through the air, emitting a piercing sound like a malicious ghost. It pierced through the cavalryman’s head and nailed him to a thick tree ten steps away!
Brains were oozing out!
Princess Hui An screamed and turned around to hug Su Xiaoxiao’s arm, burying her head in her shoulder.
Xiao Duye and the others were also stunned.
They knew that Qin Canglan was powerful, but they had never seen him kill enemies with their own eyes.
Their reverence for Qin Canglan came mostly from Qin Canglan’s military achievements and rumors.
As for the rumors, they were more or less exaggerated.
Now, they finally understood that the rumors were exaggerated when it came to others. When it came to Qin Canglan, he was simply too humble.
Xiao Duye admitted to himself that he would definitely not have the courage to shoot that spear had he been in Qin Canglan’s.
This was because the cavalry was almost completely blocked by Su Xiaoxiao, only revealing half of his head.
As long as it was an inch higher, Su Xiaoxiao would be the one shot through.
Su Xiaoxiao’s reaction shocked Xiao Duye.
The cavalry couldn’t see the spear because it was blocked by Su Xiaoxiao. Su Xiaoxiao could definitely see it.
Ordinary people would instinctively dodge, but she didn’t even blink.
If she moved, the cavalry would definitely sense something amiss and might be able to dodge.
So was this girl scared silly, or did she believe that Qin Canglan would not fail?
Qin Canglan looked at Xiao Duye meaningfully and said domineeringly, “Your Highness, I’ll deal with your people for you.”
Xiao Duye looked at Qin Canglan with a deep gaze.
After a while, he nodded slightly and said calmly, “Thank you, Old Protector, for cleaning up my mess.”
Qin Canglan said calmly, “You’re welcome.”
He rode his horse towards Su Xiaoxiao.
A man and a horse entered the encirclement of many cavalrymen alone.
The cavalry of the Eldest Prince’s residence immediately scattered like ghosts who had seen the King of Hell.
Seeing that his people were so meek in front of Qin Canglan, Xiao Duye felt a little embarrassed.
He sneered and said, “Old Protector Duke, aren’t you afraid of causing panic among the people by bringing so many cavalry out in the middle of the night?”
Qin Canglan smiled faintly. “Is that so? Along the way, the commoners have said that they feel especially at ease to see the Qin family’s iron cavalry guarding the Imperial City with their own eyes.” The corners of Xiao Duye’s mouth twitched.
Qin Canglan did not get off the horse and bow.
He was wearing the Divine General armor bestowed by the late Emperor and did not need to bow to any member of the royal family.
When he brushed past Xiao Duye, he said condescendingly, “I only have this one granddaughter. If anyone dares to bully her, I’ll bring the Qin family’s 100,000 iron cavalry and raze his nest to the ground!”
Xiao Duye was stunned.
Qin Canglan turned his horse around and looked at the uniform cavalry. He said sternly, “Generals, listen up!”
The Qin family’s iron cavalry dismounted valiantly. They held spears and looked at Qin Canglan with determination.
Qin Canglan said domineeringly, “From today onwards, anyone who wants to hurt my granddaughter has to step over the corpses of the Qin family army! ”
The Qin family cavalry held the spears in their hands tightly and took a step back in unison, kneeling on one knee. “We’ll protect Miss to the death!”
“We’ll protect Miss to the death!”
“We’ll protect Miss to the death!”
