Daily Intelligence System: Don't Kill Me, Honey!

Chapter 960: Chapter 243: Zhao Ya: Chen 94, He’s Back!

The government soldiers are on the verge of losing the city walls.

At this moment, after catching a blow from Wang Baobao, Elder Quan showed a smile on his face and said, ”Wang Baobao, even if you can stop me, what use is it? Look, look behind you, Huangzhou Prefecture is about to fall, hahaha...”

Hearing this, Wang Baobao glanced back, his brow furrowed tightly. Elder Quan was right, these fierce beasts were indeed close to breaching the city walls.

Wang Baobao exclaimed in shock, ”Huo Bima, take the flank to rescue the Prefecture City and ensure the Commandery Princess’s safety!”

Huo Bima replied, ”Lord, no, we can’t leave. If we leave, the formation will fall apart. You can’t handle him alone; none of us can move now.”

Upon hearing this, Wang Baobao’s face turned ashen. Elder Quan laughed loudly and said, ”Wang Baobao, your subordinate is quite capable. That’s right; as long as I hold you back, you can’t move an inch, and you can’t save the Prefecture City behind you. My fierce beast army will devour everyone inside the city clean. Hahaha, in this battle, the Zoroastrian Sect will surely win, you can’t win!”

Hearing this, Wang Baobao was furious, swinging his large blade and roaring, ”Villain, I will take your life. Kill!”

Wang Baobao swung his large blade frantically attacking Elder Quan before him. However, Elder Quan, confident of victory, wasn’t in a hurry, instead entangling with Wang Baobao. For a moment, despite the deafening shouts and killing cries, they were locked in a fierce struggle, unable to determine a victor.

Kill, kill, kill...

Rumble, rumble, rumble!

The battle here was exceedingly fierce.

Meanwhile, on top of the city wall, Zhao Ya, covered in blood, slashed a giant python with her sword. Looking up, she saw fierce beasts everywhere inside and outside the city, while the soldiers defending the city walls were being bitten, crying out miserably, looking extremely wretched.

The entire city wall was on the verge of collapse; the fall of Huangzhou Prefecture was imminent.

Seeing this, Zhao Ya’s face was full of a defeated and tragic smile.

At this moment, with a swish, a figure appeared in front of her; yes, it was He Yishou.

He hadn’t participated in this battle because it was meaningless. Even if he went all out, how many could he kill, a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand?

In this surging tide of refugees, he served no purpose. A martial artist might be powerful, but he couldn’t change the entire battlefield. Moreover, even if his strength was formidable, after killing thousands of people, gang qi depletion would likely lead to a decline in his realm.

And the enemy also had people in the Dragon Realm. If he acted now, he could very likely get himself killed.

So even the top-level martial artists wouldn’t easily do something reckless like facing an army alone because it was meaningless.

The value of top experts lies in assassination and protection. Large-scale military wars should be left to military strategists.

Furthermore, a mere Huangzhou Prefecture did not warrant his risking his life. He only needed to ensure Zhao Ya’s safety.

After all, ten Huangzhou Prefectures might not be as important as Zhao Ya alone.

At this moment, He Yishou looked at Zhao Ya and said, ”Commandery Princess, the city can’t be defended. Let’s go! Before the enemy surrounds us, I’ll take you away from here.”

Hearing this, Zhao Ya looked at He Yishou and said, ”Master He, but there are still a hundred thousand people in the city?”

He Yishou said, ”A hundred thousand people are not as important as you, Commandery Princess.”

Zhao Ya asked, ”Then what about Master Gui? Didn’t he say he brought 100,000 stones of grain to aid us?”

He Yishou replied, ”Even if Master Gui came, even if the Turtle and Crane acted together, we couldn’t stop this overwhelming beast tide. We’re just two people; even if our martial power is strong, we can’t play a decisive role in such a war. We can’t slay an entire army alone, neither could the likes of Wudang’s Zhang Sanfeng or our State Preceptor Basiba slay ten thousand troops alone.”

”No one can do that, so let’s go.”

He Yishou urged, not agreeing with defending the city, as it was mostly pointless. As long as Zhao Ya remained unharmed, that was enough.

After hearing this, Zhao Ya said, ”Master He, I understand the reasoning, but how can I abandon the people in the city, run away alone? This won’t do, I must fight to the end.”

He Yishou sighed and said, ”If you insist, then forgive your mentor’s rudeness.”

Snap, snap!

He Yishou directly tapped Zhao Ya’s acupoints, and she instantly became paralyzed, unable to move. At this moment, seeing this from afar, a bat sensed an opportunity and flew over, but the next moment it was frozen into an ice cube by He Yishou’s palm, shattering on the ground with a thud, crushed to pieces.

”Master He, what are you doing!”

Zhao Ya was alarmed after her acupoints were hit. He Yishou said, ”Commandery Princess, don’t be willful, I promised the Prince I would keep you safe.”

After speaking, He Yishou stood up and carried Zhao Ya over his shoulder. Seeing this, Zhao Ya immediately panicked and shouted angrily, ”Put me down, Master He, put me down. I want to live and die with Huangzhou Prefecture City. If I leave, they have even less reason to resist!”

He Yishou said, ”It doesn’t matter. Losing a city is nothing.”

”Master He!”

Zhao Ya shouted, pleading, hoping He Yishou would put her down. But as a bodyguard, He Yishou had to ensure Zhao Ya’s safety, which far outweighed the significance of a single city.

Meanwhile, on the wall, the soldiers were battling desperately with the fierce beasts, covered in blood, barely holding on.

But when they saw Zhao Ya being taken away, their morale instantly crumbled.

It’s over, even the Commandery Princess has fled, we can’t hold Huangzhou Prefecture City!

A group of people abandoned the fight, each filled with despair, while the city residents also witnessed the breaking defenses of the city walls progressing.
