Chapter 122: Chapter 122: The Army Arrives Chapter 122: Chapter 122: The Army Arrives Using the opportunity when Ah Dao dodged, Cai Jiang flew several meters away, glaring viciously at Bai Junjun before he left.

“Kid, I will make you pay back a hundredfold for today’s enmity one day!”

Cai Jiang spat out a threat and leapt away to escape.

However, Bai Junjun sneered coldly, “Thinking of revenge? You need to see if you even live long enough to try.”

With that, she also raised her sleeve, revealing a black crossbow, and finally, five Mystic Iron Crossbows flew towards Cai Jiang simultaneously.

Cai Jiang, being a person with Kung Fu skills, had senses keener than ordinary people. Hearing an unusual sound from behind, he used his death-defying experience to quickly dodge to the side.

However, having dodged one, then two, he never expected three, four, and five more to follow in quick succession. Even as agile as Cai Jiang was, he was only human and soon fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Ah Dao rushed over with his sword raised to chop.

Yet, at this critical moment, there came the sound of horse hooves approaching from afar.

Everyone turned their heads in shock only to see a troop of a hundred Elite Troops rapidly approaching under the leadership of a Young General.

The Young General, seeing Ah Dao with a raised sword from afar, shouted loudly, “How dare you bandits create trouble here!”

With those words, he leaped forward.

The long spear, the Silver Spear, also thrust towards Ah Dao.

Ah Dao dared not engage in conflict with this Young General; they were supposed to avoid the Xuanwei Army at all costs and not clash with them.

Therefore, Ah Dao could only keep retreating, simultaneously sheathing his sword and explaining, “General, you are wise, we are not bandits but refugees passing by, who intervened to help seeing bandits causing trouble here.”

The Young General squinted, “Is that so?”

“Absolutely true! The villagers seeking help are right here.”

Xiao Chan also hurriedly brought over the real villagers hiding near the horse carriage.

At that moment, both the villagers and refugees had pale faces, looking extremely frightened.

Of course, the villagers were panicked by the suddenly chasing bandits, while the refugees were panicked because of the hundred Elite Troops, for they bore the insignia of the Xuanwei Army!

However, at this time, the Young General did not notice anything amiss with the refugees; his focus was all on these villagers.

Seeing the Xuanwei Army uniformed soldiers, the villagers immediately started crying out as they crawled towards them.

“Army Lord, we truly are residents here, and these indeed are refugees who were passing by. Those subdued over there are the bandits from the Mighty Hall!”

The villagers then tearfully recounted to the Young General what had happened that day and how this group of passing refugees had drawn their swords to help.

The Young General glanced at Cai Jiang, lying on the ground with arrows and then at all the bandits lying on the ground, reassessing the refugees’ strength anew.

When the Young General saw the horse carriage stopped in front of the troop, his eyes narrowed slightly, “I wonder who the noble person sitting in this carriage is. It would be better for me to inquire thoroughly before advancing to pay respects.”

Xiao Chan’s expression shifted slightly as she humbly said, “General, you are mistaken, my brother is not a noble; he’s just a sickly ordinary person who fortunately came across a horse carriage on this journey. If the Young General likes, we can also leave the carriage behind.”

Xiao Chan spoke humbly, and seeing their earnest faces, the Young General’s mind spun. He guessed they might be fleeing to the Northern Lands from one of the Shi clans!

They must have heard about the wars starting in the Northern Lands and hence were running south again. Who knows what experts might be mixed in the troop? Didn’t they see all the bandits were dead except for their half-dead leader!

The Young General was not foolish; he clearly understood the situation.
