Chapter 140 Enemy Reinforcements
Just as the two sides were locked in fierce combat, with the outcome uncertain, a commotion from afar broke the silence of the battlefield.
The sound swept in like a storm, carrying an indescribable sense of urgency and unknown power.
Just then, a noisy commotion came from afar.
The voice seemed to have a magical power, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Daya and Xiaoyue exchanged a glance, their eyes revealing unease.
They didn't know whether the noise was friendly or hostile, but their intuition told them that something was wrong.
"Oh no, could it be that their reinforcements have arrived?" Daya's expression changed as she looked at Xiaoyue and said.
Xiaoyue looked nervous upon hearing this. She glanced around and noticed that the soldiers around her seemed to be shaken by the sudden noise.
She took a deep breath and said to Daya, "DaYa, we can't linger any longer; we must leave here immediately."
Having reached an agreement, the two decided to retreat back towards the woods they had come from.
As they retreated, they brandished their swords, blocking the pursuing soldiers.
Daya's swordsmanship is fierce, each strike enough to terrify her enemies; while Xiaoyue's swordsmanship is light and agile, like a butterfly dancing gracefully, dazzling the eye.
After a fierce struggle, the two women finally managed to escape the soldiers' pursuit.
Just as they were about to escape into the woods, the general and several others caught up with them.
They pursued relentlessly like hunting dogs, determined to capture Daya and Xiaoyue.
Time passed second by second, and Daya and Xiaoyue's physical strength was gradually being depleted.
They knew that if they couldn't get rid of these enemies as soon as possible, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Just then, the people who had been making the noise arrived.
One of the generals, dressed in a magnificent battle robe, rode a tall warhorse and appeared majestically on the battlefield.
He frowned as he saw the generals and soldiers fighting with two women.
"General Chu, what's going on here? Who are those two women?"
While asking questions, the man carefully observed Daya and Xiaoyue.
While fighting with Da Ya, the Chu general told the general about the two women.
"General Lian, come quickly and help! Our men had captured a group of women and children, but these two suddenly appeared and released them."
General Lian was furious upon hearing this.
They went to great lengths to capture a group of women and children, only to have their plans ruined by these two women.
He stared wide-eyed at Daya and Xiaoyue, as if he wanted to devour them alive.
"You two wretches, how dare you ruin my plans!"
Tonight, I will definitely capture you all and show you my power. Then I'll make you wish you were dead.
General Lian roared and charged forward, his spear moving like a dragon emerging from the sea, heading straight for Daya and Xiaoyue.
Fortunately, Daya and Xiaoyue didn't understand the meaning behind his words.
Otherwise, he will definitely learn what he can and cannot say.
Daya and Xiaoyue were about to defeat the Chu generals when an unexpected obstacle suddenly appeared.
They felt a chill run down their spines, knowing that the battle was about to become even more difficult.
Xiaoyue took a deep breath and decided to unleash her full power.
She knew they had to retreat after this attack, or they would be doomed.
She used her lightness skill to get to Da Ya's side and said to Da Ya, "Da Ya, you should retreat first."
Before Daya could react, she heard Xiaoyue call out, "Linglong Yueying".
A dazzling silver light emanated from the tip of Xiaoyue's sword, as if a bright moon were rising from the night sky.
She swung her sword, and a silver sword light, like a bolt of lightning, pierced the night sky, heading straight for General Lian.
Even though General Lian was highly skilled in martial arts, he was still taken aback by Xiaoyue's sudden and unexpected move.
He hurriedly dodged to the side, but the sword's edge still managed to cut a gash on his shoulder.
Blood instantly stained his battle robe, and he roared in pain, gritting his teeth.
The other soldiers didn't react in time and dozens of them were struck by the sudden sword light.
They all collapsed to the ground, groaning in pain, and the scene was chaotic.
When Da Ya saw Xiao Yue unleash such a powerful move, she couldn't help but admire her secretly.
She seized the opportunity, came to Xiaoyue's side, and led her using her light-footed skills to the horses placed in the woods.
They knew that only by escaping this place as soon as possible could they save their lives.
When General Lian saw the two girls about to run away, how could he let them go?
He roared, "Neither of you are going to escape!"
Then he rode his warhorse and chased after them.
Unfortunately, Daya and Xiaoyue had already mounted their horses. They waved the hilts of their swords and slapped the horses, causing them to gallop wildly.
Daya and Xiaoyue galloped along the winding path through the forest.
The roar of General Lian behind them was like thunder, echoing through the empty forest and adding a sense of urgency and crisis to the escape.
Xiaoyue's face was as pale as paper, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
That all-out attack just now successfully held off the pursuers for a moment.
However, it also greatly depleted her physical strength, and she seemed somewhat powerless at this moment.
Daya gripped the reins tightly, her eyes blazing with determination and courage.
She knew that at this critical juncture of life and death, she had to protect Xiaoyue.
"Xiaoyue, you have to hang in there, we'll shake them off soon."
Daya's voice trembled slightly in the wind, but she tried her best to remain calm and encouraged Xiaoyue with firm words.
She knew that encouragement at this moment was crucial for Xiaoyue.
Xiaoyue nodded slightly and smiled; she didn't want Daya to worry.
"Sister Daya, don't worry, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired, I'll be fine after a rest."
The two generals, Lian and Chu, who were hot on their heels, were no ordinary men either.
They rode their warhorses with remarkable speed and were highly experienced.
She always maintained a distance that was neither too close nor too far from Daya and Xiaoyue.
Seeing that no matter how they chased each other, they were always at the same distance, General Lian was filled with rage.
He vowed to capture the two women who had ruined his plans.
This will allow him to have his own amusement and vent his anger.
The two raced each other along the winding forest path, time slipping away like flowing water.
In the blink of an eye, the sky was already turning a pale white, and the daylight was about to break.
Xiaoyue endured two hours of jolting on horseback, despite having this fine steed as her means of transportation.
But the long run and the tension still left her feeling exhausted, and her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat.
Fortunately, during the two hours of escape, she also managed to take a Rejuvenation Pill.
As the medicine slowly seeped in, her internal strength was gradually recovering.
This gave her a slight sense of relief and a glimmer of hope.
"Sister Da Ya, they're chasing us so relentlessly, this can't go on forever."
Xiaoyue's voice was tinged with anxiety and helplessness. She turned to look at Daya beside her, her eyes filled with pleading.
Daya took a deep breath of the cool morning air, her gaze becoming even more determined and resolute.
She gripped the reins tightly, feeling the horse's steady gait, and a surge of indomitable fighting spirit welled up within her.
"Xiaoyue, the situation is urgent, and we don't have any good solutions. We can only take it one step at a time."
But you must remember that no matter what happens, you must not use forbidden techniques.
Of course, your older sister will definitely protect you. Whatever happens, we'll face it together.
Upon hearing this, Xiaoyue felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She nodded slightly, her eyes shining with determination.
"Big Sister, you have to cooperate with me later. I plan to try out that acupressure technique."
She took a deep breath and looked at Daya with a determined gaze.
"Although I'm not sure myself, I don't know if my mental strength can withstand such a huge drain."
But now that things have come to this, we really have no other choice.
We can't just keep running around passively like headless flies.
We must take the initiative and find opportunities to counterattack.
Upon hearing this, Daya's heart skipped a beat, and a look of astonishment appeared on her face.
She was well aware of just how dangerous this so-called acupoint striking technique was; it wasn't a move that could be used casually.
