Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1629: Chapter 1609: Fight to the Death with Backs Against the River

After both sides formally initiated the duel, Luo Qianqian’s heart was filled with anxiety.

If she died, what would her brother do?

She cannot die!

Although Huangfu Ze’s strength was formidable, he was still essentially an ’illiterate’. And there’s a whole era difference between her and him! She’s a child of science, how could she possibly be defeated by some country bumpkin who understands nothing?

With this thought, she put away her long-handled curved blade, lightly tapped her toes, landing on a tree, with a silvery-white item appearing in her hands.

Although she couldn’t use anything more powerful, this item might not necessarily fail!

Huangfu Ze looked at Luo Qianqian’s resolute expression and shouted, a bit flustered: ”Hold on!”

Luo Qianqian paused her movement, leaning against the tree trunk, half squat between the branches, her black short hair flying, holding onto the silver item as if she were the guardian of the forest, defending it from being destroyed by the intruder.

Huangfu Ze held his crescent moon blade by his side, a trace of surprise on his face, said: ”Is the thing in your hand a talisman tool? Where did you get it!”

Luo Qianqian was stunned, then slightly frowned, how did this person know about talisman tools?

But she sneered shortly after, coldly said: ”Stole it from Snow Palace’s labyrinth, so what? Are you planning to report me to Snow Palace?”

”Snow Palace... hahaha.” A trace of cruelty appeared in Huangfu Ze’s eyes, killing intent obvious, he raised his crescent moon blade across his chest: ”In this case, none of you will leave here alive!”

Luo Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then laughed oddly.

Even if Huangfu Ze really went to find the people of Snow Palace, he couldn’t find the existence of the talisman tool!

Because she was the one who attained the talisman tool inheritance, from Nine Heavens Pavilion!

Though it’s a bit unfair to Haan Bing, Snow Palace seems to be the best target to frame right now.

A slight blush appeared on her face, she owed Haan Bing a favor for this time; if they really ended up fighting in the future, she wouldn’t use those trump cards.

Flashes of anger passed through her eyes, her hand tightly gripping the silver weapon: ”If you want my life, you’ll need to trade yours for it!”

Saying this, she fired a shot at the tree near Huangfu Ze.

”Boom”

A huge explosion sound suddenly rang out, leaving Huangfu Ze somewhat stunned, incredulous that the power came from Luo Qianqian’s item just moments ago.

However, such an attack only served to scare, it didn’t seem to harm him.

She then watched as a splendid firework dispersed in the sky.

Before Huangfu Ze could react, two more shots went off, aimed at his chest and forehead.

Her every attack couldn’t be calculated, after all, the person’s bizarre movement techniques were unpredictable!

Not to her surprise, she watched that phantom fade and disperse after taking the hit, she quickly holstered her pistol and leaped onto the tree nearby.

What she needed to do now was merely stall for time.

Meanwhile...

Haan Bing felt the intense vibration coming from another direction, quickly changed direction and headed towards it.

After Bai Yizhu heard the sound of fireworks exploding, his face turned nasty, promptly took out the Communication Spirit Jade to explain the earlier events.

In an instant, people from both Nine Heavens Pavilion and Ten Thousand Sect were headed to the explosion site.

Luo Qianqian drew out a long sword, she had never learned swordsmanship, only knew sword techniques, and this wasn’t even her sword, but at this moment, there was no time to speculate, she had to stall as long as possible.

”Crack”

The sound of collision, Huangfu Yanyao’s short sword broke, his arm was cut, and blood immediately gushed out.

”Worthless.” Huangfu Ze looked disdainfully at Huangfu Yanyao who was easily hurt by him, raised both crescent blades and slashed towards him.

Huangfu Yanyao was only injured, not losing his judgment, upon seeing this scene, he rolled on the ground without hesitation, evading the crescent blades’ attack, and then stood beside where Luo Qianqian had hidden something earlier.

Though the effect of that earlier attack was somewhat astounding, he quickly realized, Luo Qianqian’s first shot was intended to call for help.

Seeing Huangfu Yanyao’s positioning, Luo Qianqian instantly reacted, as Huangfu Ze moved against Huangfu Yanyao, she quickly fired the shot at the fuse, Huangfu Yanyao quickly dodged aside, not foolish enough to await an attack.

”Boom”

Another massive boom echoed through the forest, just like before.

The next moment, a pair of small hands grabbed his hand, a white mist with a pungent odor rose before them.

Luo Qianqian quickly took him away, showing no intention to linger.

However, it was clear they underestimated Huangfu Ze’s perception, he soon detected the two figures and pursued them, furiously slashing towards them.

Feeling the murderous aura behind her, Luo Qianqian panicked, swiftly kicked Huangfu Yanyao, the two of them scattered to the sides, evading the attack, Luo Qianqian keenly observed Huangfu Ze had locked onto her.

A force had targeted her, without any deviation.

Moreover, she and Huangfu Yanyao were in different directions; apparently, she had successfully angered the prince, becoming his primary target over the Huangfu Brothers whom he wanted to eliminate first.

Thinking quickly for a countermeasure, she planned to discuss cosmology with the prince, only to find, in the dissipating mist ahead, someone already intercepted Huangfu Ze’s figure.

Haan Bing raised his long sword, blocking the pair of crescent blades, confronting Huangfu Ze down the path.

”Haan Bing!” Luo Qianqian was shocked, this person also couldn’t handle Huangfu Ze!

Unexpectedly, Huangfu Ze withdrew his attack, a bloodthirsty smile crossed his face, merged the two crescent blades into one-hand grip, wiped his lips with the other: ”Getting things done effortlessly, still more seeking death arrives?”

Faced with such a formidable challenger, who would willingly seek trouble? Especially knowing they couldn’t defeat him, yet at this moment, there stood a person.

Still a Snow Palace person.

The talisman tool; he wanted to see whether the legendary Ice Emperor Charm was more powerful, or his crescent moon blades were stronger!

”If it’s death you’re heading for, try and you shall know!” Haan Bing frowned, his face full of seriousness; naturally, he was aware of how risky it was to face Huangfu Ze now.

And the fact Luo Qianqian managed to duel with him for this long was also due to the prince’s willingness.

Or perhaps, it was the prince’s game.

Suddenly thrusting oneself into a game naturally requires preparedness to be played.

However, he couldn’t just stand by watching Luo Shiqi get hurt before his eyes without responding!

Luo Shiqi could only perish by his hand!
