Making you a son-in-law is not about making you conquer the world.

Chapter 491 A Great Victory Over the Enemy Army

"Brother Wang, I'm here to help you!"

Seeing that the guards of the Eastern Palace were almost all killed or wounded, and that Xia Linglong was holding off dozens of enemies alone, Xia Linglong couldn't bear it.

After all, she was a commander of the Imperial Guard, with strength comparable to Bai Lianhua. Her embroidered spring blade flashed repeatedly as she killed several people in succession.

"Go find Lin Ping quickly, only he can help us!" Xia Linglong shouted.

For some reason, he also developed a strange sense of dependence on Lin Ping.

It is a sad and helpless thing to hand over one's fate to an outsider, but he had no other choice.

Apart from Lin Ping, no one else could mobilize tens of thousands of troops.

"Don't worry, Brother Wang, Young Master Lin will definitely come. We will work together to protect Father," Xia Linglong said firmly.

In her despair, she had considered the possibility that Lin Ping had fled the battlefield, but when his image flashed through her mind, this doubt vanished.

He may seem carefree and unreliable at times, but he always keeps his promises.

At the same time, Lin Ping had led tens of thousands of cavalry to the palace gate. He was furious at the sight of the blood-soaked scene inside, especially when he saw the blood on Xia Linglong's body. His eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"The time has come to show your loyalty. Kill the rebels, leave no one alive!" Lin Ping said coldly to the remaining 20,000 Lu family soldiers.

They glanced at Lin Ping, and their little thoughts vanished instantly.

The man's eyes were somewhat cold; deceiving him would have serious consequences.

Twenty thousand men, armed with scimitars, marched menacingly into the palace.

"Oh no! Enemy reinforcements have arrived! Protect Father!" Upon seeing the Lu family army, Xia Linglong's heart tightened. He struggled through the numerous obstacles and resolutely stood in front of the king.

Xia Linglong's heart skipped a beat. The entire Lu family army was outside the door, and there was no sign of Lin Ping.

The previous rebel forces were already overwhelmed, and these 20,000 men had no chance of survival.

"I'll fight you to the death!" Xia Linglong charged towards the 20,000-strong army like a madwoman, her embroidered spring blade piercing the chests of the enemies one after another.

His dark flying fish robe was already stained with blood, and even his long, fluffy hair was dyed red, making his ferocious face somewhat frightening.

"Linglong, come back quickly!" Xia Linglong shouted loudly.

Even he wouldn't dare to charge into an army of 20,000 men alone; it would be suicide.

Xia Linglong had the same idea. She knew that Lin Ping would not run away, and the reason he had not appeared for so long was that he had probably already met with misfortune.

She not only wanted to avenge Lin Ping, but also wanted to die with him.

"Brother, the task of protecting Father is entrusted to you. I will avenge Young Master Lin!" Xia Linglong gritted her teeth, blood staining her pearly teeth, and shouted with heartbreaking pain.

"Has this tomboy gone mad? Why would she avenge me when I'm just standing here perfectly fine?" Lin Ping looked at Xia Linglong in bewilderment, a strange sense of emotion welling up within him.

"Kill people if you want to, vent all your anger, they won't dare to fight back anyway."

And so, Xia Linglong swept through the enemy ranks, cutting all the way to their heartland, leaving dozens dead under her blade.

The Lu family army had received Lin Ping's death order that they must not harm a single hair on Xia Linglong's head. They could only avoid Xia Linglong and dared not lay a hand on her.

woohoo hoo...

Xia Linglong, leaning on her curved sword, was panting heavily. The excessive killing had exhausted all her strength, and now she could only obediently wait for death.

After a long time, the enemy not only did not kill her, but instead kept their distance, as if they regarded her as a plague.

"Huh? The enemy seems to be afraid of me?" After calming down, Xia Linglong felt even more strange. No matter how strong she was, it was impossible for her to kill dozens of people without getting hurt.

At this moment, 20,000 of Lu's troops had arrived beside the thousands of rebel soldiers.

"Hahaha! My Lu family's reinforcements have arrived. Today is the day your Xia family dies!" The leading commander laughed loudly.

"Father, we escaped through the secret passage. As long as we're alive, we can always rebuild. My Xia family will take back the palace one day!" Xia Linglong advised.

The main force of Lu's army has arrived. If we don't retreat, we will only face certain death. This is the only option we have now.

"But Linglong is still here," the king said worriedly.

"She will understand us." Xia Linglong felt a pang of pain in his heart and thought to himself, "Little sister, I'm sorry, your brother has no other choice."

"Trying to escape? No way! Fire!" the rebel leader said coldly, determined not to give them a chance to rise again.

Just when he was riding high, the situation suddenly reversed. A cold, curved blade pierced his heart, and only endless death awaited him.

"Why? Why did you do this?" The rebel leader looked at his former comrade in bewilderment, then fell unwillingly into a pool of blood.

"Because we want to live." The other person helped him close his eyelids and said sternly, "Kill the rebels, leave no one alive!"

The most satisfying scene was one of infighting. The crossbowmen who had been brought close were easily wiped out, dying without ever understanding what had happened.

"Why aren't you killing anyone? Let out all the anger in your heart."

A gentle voice, like a spring breeze and drizzle, seeped into Xia Linglong's heart.

She raised her eyes slightly, and there was that face she had been longing for, staring at her.

Unable to contain her excitement, Xia Linglong really wanted to rush over and bury herself in Lin Ping's arms, but his calm smile said one thing.

All of this is under his control.

If that's the case, why make yourself worry?

Xia Linglong's joyful expression instantly turned cold. She lightly touched lotus flowers with her feet and flew to the front of the forest by stepping on the shoulders of soldiers.

"Come on, let's give each other a big hug!" Lin Ping opened his arms, waiting for Xia Linglong to take the initiative.

thump!

Just as he was feeling smug, Xia Linglong kicked him away, sending him crashing heavily to the ground.

"Hmph, this is what happens when you make me worry for no reason!" Xia Linglong lowered her head and bent over to look at Lin Ping. Seeing his disheveled and aggrieved appearance, she couldn't help but laugh.

"Huh? How could this be?" Lin Ping asked in confusion, his gaze fixed intently on Xia Linglong.

"Who told you to act on your own!" Xia Linglong put her hands on her hips and leaned even lower, unaware that Lin Ping had a lewd expression on his face.

This angle is better for observation.

"It's even bigger than my wife's! It's simply outrageous!" Lin Ping said indignantly.

Xia Linglong then realized that he was staring at the wrong spot, her pretty face flushed red, and she quickly stood up straight.

"You lecherous scoundrel, believe me or not I'll have my father punish you!"

"I'm innocent! I'm terribly innocent! I meant you're stronger than my wife!" Lin Ping tried to explain, but the more he tried, the more confused he became.

Amidst the flirtatious banter between the two, the battle within the palace was nearing its end. Thousands of rebel soldiers had been annihilated, and 5,000 of the 20,000 Lu family troops had also perished.

Plans never keep up with changes, so the king had to abandon the idea of ​​fleeing; there was absolutely no need for it!

"Hurry up and go claim credit." Xia Linglong took Lin Ping's hand and led him towards the main hall.
