Chapter 2754
That really was flying.
How could those little pink fists produce an effect like that?
Swish, swish, swish!
At the same moment, Qi Yue and the others all drew their weapons, waiting for Zhao Chi's single command before they would all attack at once.
Zhuang Ya bit her lower lip.
Her palm burned hot.
Given her temperament, she would have already blasted out a stream of fire long ago.
But Zhao Chi was here, so it wasn't her place to speak.
Though she was furious, she still held back.
Unless Zhao Chi gave the order, no matter how angry she was, she wouldn't rashly make a move—unless... Zhao Chi was attacked.
If Zhao Chi were attacked, they wouldn't wait for any order.
They would all counterattack immediately.
Gu Qing was the same.
But Gu Qing rarely showed an angry expression.
When she was angry, she would mostly give a cold laugh.
She was laughing right now.
An extremely cold and gorgeous laugh.
She was ready too.
One hand ready to spray silk, the other ready to heal.
Qi Yue was merely holding her blades with both hands, not yet manifesting her six arms.
Because these opponents didn't warrant six arms at all.
But the blades in both her hands were extremely heavy two-handed Fengming Blades, with thick bodies and enormous edges.
A single blade was nearly as tall as Qi Yue herself, completely mismatched with her slender, graceful figure.
Yet she held them as casually as if they were kitchen cleavers.
Even before attacking, she radiated an inexplicable, intimidating pressure.
"Owowow..."
The female captain's agonized voice came through.
The patrol soldiers snapped out of their daze and hurriedly ran to her side.
The female captain tried to get up immediately after falling, but the moment she struggled to her feet, she crashed down heavily again, completely unable to stand.
There was an obvious, huge bloody hole in her right breastplate, blood gushing out rapidly.
"Captain!!"
"Quick, use the Life healing technique!"
"Stay on guard, prepare for combat!"
Several patrol soldiers all drew their weapons, but not a single one took the initiative to attack.
They weren't stupid...
If even the captain had nearly been beaten to death by a single punch, these soldiers would only die instantly.
Besides, they had never seen a fist that could punch straight through armor in one strike.
No one truly dared to step forward.
Although they had drawn their weapons, they all retreated to the female captain's side.
Zhao Chi paid them no attention at all and walked straight toward the female captain.
Gu Qing and the others followed behind, watching the female patrol soldiers closely.
The female patrol soldiers, who had been so overbearing just moments ago, didn't dare meet their eyes at all—they just bit their lips, lowered their heads, and held their weapons defensively in front of them.
The female captain had already been healed.
She rose to her feet like a mother bear, still looking every bit as imposing.
But when Tang Ruan walked up to her again, she hunched her shoulders slightly, as if afraid to stand taller than Tang Ruan.
She also didn't dare stay too close to Tang Ruan, involuntarily retreating again and again.
"No, no, no, um... little sister, please don't hit me anymore..."
Zhao Chi snorted: "Little sister? Who the hell is your little sister? Call me Officer!"
"... Officer... please forgive me for failing to recognize your greatness."
"Heh~ What's the matter? Why are you apologizing to deserters?"
"No, no, no, how could you possibly be deserters... with this kind of strength... you could absolutely beat the werewolves into total retreat."
"Really? Then can we go?"
"Yes! Yes, yes, yes! Of course you can!"
Zhao Chi looked left and right, then said: "We're heading to the front line and don't have horses yet—we happen to need eight horses."
"Eight horses?" the female captain said in astonishment: "Aren't there only four of you?"
"We take turns riding. Don't you understand?"
"Th... these horses are all registered."
"What the hell are you talking about?"
"... Help yourself."
Zhao Chi asked: "So, are you giving us these horses voluntarily?"
"Yes…"
"Good, mount up!"
Zhao Chi beckoned them over.
"YES!!!"
Zhao Chi picked out two horses and led them straight away.
Gu Qing and the others each led two horses away as well.
Zhao Chi kept Tang Ruan under control, lifted his long leg lightly, and mounted with ease.
Once seated in the saddle, he said to the female captain: "Those women said we're not decent. What do we do?"
The female captain said, stunned: "Really… Quick, you few, come apologize at once."
"Apologize? Are you fucking playing dumb? You cursed us out and all you have is an apology?"
The female captain gritted her teeth, swung up a paw like a mother bear, and gave each of them a slap.
She hit them pretty hard.
The sound was very loud.
Their shrieks were very loud too.
Zhao Chi reined his horse and turned south.
He clamped his legs, and the black horse shot forward.
Gu Qing and the others followed close behind.
The patrol's twenty members stood silently in place.
A female patrol member, covering her face, asked: "Captain, should we report this? What they did counts as stealing horses — stealing military supplies!"
"Report my ass!" the female captain said bitterly. "We can't afford to mess with those women… They must be some high-level bigwig's women. I'm such an idiot — women who look like that… how could they possibly be ordinary people… As long as they don't come after us, we're fine… What rotten luck! Move out!"
Zhao Chi wasn't much of a horseman.
Tang Ruan and the others weren't much either.
Luckily there were stirrups.
They wore high heels pressed into the stirrups, and that super terrain-adaptability could come into play.
So their bottoms really did feel the jolting, but their feet and legs were extremely steady.
On top of that, they all had supple bodies, so those jolts were nothing at all.
What they were doing wasn't really riding — more like standing in the stirrups while sitting on the saddle, rising and falling with the horse's back.
At first glance it looked the same, but there was a fundamental difference.
But no matter what, they could charge steadily southward just like real riders.
With two horses to swap between, there was no need to rest.
