I Have a Date with a Thousand-year-old Female Corpse-Chapter 1861 - 1862: If You Seek Death Yourself, Don’t Blame Me

Chapter 1861: Chapter 1862: If You Seek Death Yourself, Don’t Blame Me
You glanced at the guard, suddenly struck, grabbing his collar as if tossing a sandbag, easily throwing him more than ten meters away. As for the other guard, before he could speak, you kicked him in the abdomen, and he flew back, crashing through the tightly shut main gate.
The main gate flew open, revealing an empty front courtyard, while sounds seemed to come from the central courtyard. Your ear twitched, and in the eyes of others, your body disappeared like a ghost!
At this moment, two groups were confronting each other in the central courtyard. To the left was the smaller group, led by Yu Jin, and behind him were about twenty people. Surrounding Yu Jin were Yuan Shao’s soldiers, a large number of archers with bows drawn, arrows aimed at Yu Jin and his people. Leading the group were two men in armor, holding steel blades.
One of the men, with an arrogant expression, said in a haughty tone, "Yu Jin, I advise you to surrender soon. Our general has previously stated that if you surrender, he’ll ensure you a high position in the army, as well as your comrade Yue Jin."
Seeing Yu Jin unmoved and unwilling to compromise, the other man spoke, "We’ve already investigated clearly. Li Muyun is dead, and our Second Young Master has been sent to the northern front by our Lord, and he can barely protect himself right now; you’re merely following orders from a few women, and how can they contend with our Lord single-handedly? We’ve heard that those women are each as beautiful as heavenly immortals, and if you surrender now, our Lord promises to reward you with one of them!"
"Zhao Rui, you damn bastard, how dare you insult my mistress, prepare to die!"
Yu Jin, initially calm, flew into a rage upon hearing Zhao Rui insult his mistress, drawing his blade to strike Zhao Rui!
"Attack!"
Zhao Rui, seeing Yu Jin charging fiercely, retreated in haste, shouting orders as soldiers swarmed forward, quickly surrounding Yu Jin.
"If you’re looking for death, don’t blame me, snap!"
Before Zhao Rui could finish his words, suddenly he felt his neck being grasped by a large hand!
"Who! Who is it!?"
Panic-stricken, Zhao Rui’s loud call drew the attention of both battling sides. Just as they turned to Zhao Rui, the hand clutching Zhao Rui’s neck suddenly tightened!
A crunching sound could be heard, shattering the bones in Zhao Rui’s neck, his head suddenly snapped off, crimson blood spurting as his headless body fell to the ground, while you entered everyone’s view clutching Zhao Rui’s head.
"Lord!" Seeing you, Yu Jin and his men shouted in unison. Their faces showed genuine joy, without a hint of falsehood.
"Since Yuan Shao has gone to such lengths, there’s no need to hide anymore." With these words, you strode forward towards another leader.
You...
As your right hand swiftly sliced through, the leader could only utter a syllable before his head spun in mid-air, becoming a headless corpse like Zhao Rui.
"Kill!"
Facing the soldiers more than ten times your number, you launched an attack first. Unlike usual, you appeared exceptionally bloody and fierce, normally killing people with a direct grasp through their vital parts, yet now you chose to clench your hand into a fist and strike, often exploding the heads of victims with cerebral blood splattering everywhere, both gory and terrifying.
With you as the guiding force, Yu Jin and others rose in resistance, each fighting with a death-defying stance, their blades ruthless, momentarily striking fear into Yuan Shao’s soldiers’ hearts. With their leaders killed, panic overtook the soldiers, joining the rush into the outer courtyard. But instead of their own forces’ aid, they met the enemy’s slaughtering blades!
"Wen Ze, I’m here to rescue you!" Yue Jin’s voice came from the outer courtyard as he led thirty people to kill Yuan Shao’s troops fleeing to the front courtyard, quickly making their way to the central courtyard only to find the battle had ended.
Yu Jin and the others had already knelt before your bloodied self, while Yue Jin, seeing you, shed hot tears, tossing aside his big blade, and fell at your feet. At this moment, your body was filthy beyond measure, brains from Yuan Shao’s soldiers tangled in your hair, your appearance a mix of red and white, extremely terrifying.
"Lord, you’ve finally returned!"
Yue Jin’s shouted "Lord" was echoed by thirty people behind him, their expressions equally vehement.
Your face cold, your voice low, you asked, "What has happened recently, where are your mistresses?"
Yu Jin quickly replied, "ing to Lord, both Zhen mistresses are currently on Lake Heart Island, Ren and Zhao mistresses have taken a group of brothers to Xuzhou."
"Xuzhou?" Your brows furrowed instantly, "Why did they go to Xuzhou?"
"It’s a strategy by Mistress Zhen. Half a month ago, she anticipated Yuan Shao’s move, warning us Yuan Shao might launch an attack. Seeing no safe place for us in Yan Province, Mistress Zhao and Mistress Ren led five hundred brothers to Xuzhou, setting up a Longmen Escort Agency Branch in Xuzhou City." Yu Jin, noticing your worry, added, "Two days ago, Mistress Zhao sent a letter, stating everything in Xuzhou was arranged, urging us to move soon. I planned to move everything and leave tonight, but Yuan Shao acted quicker than expected."
"If that’s the case, we must act immediately. Everyone should take valuables; leave behind trivial burdens, as personal safety is paramount now!"
"Understood!"
Before heading to Xuzhou, you went to Lake Heart Island.
On the one hand, you wished to assess the island’s current situation in person and reunite with Zhen Luo sisters. However, you didn’t intend to take them to Xuzhou, since the situation was unclear, and until you fully controlled Xuzhou, you wouldn’t risk Zhen Luo and Zhen Jiang sisters. Compared to Ren Hongchang and Zhao Yu, their combat prowess was nearly null.
In fact, your initial intent upon returning was to conceal your strength further, quietly consolidating and waiting for the right moment. Yet Yuan Shao’s bold move made you understand one point. In your view, you don’t belong to any forces across the Nine Provinces nor are you anyone’s pawn. Now it’s time to seize complete control and not let others dictate your life or death, while also establishing a truly safe defensive fortress to protect your loved ones.
To avoid detection, you sent Yu Jin and Yue Jin leading people to rush to Xuzhou overnight, while you quietly headed to Lake Heart Island.
Around Lake Heart Island lies a contact point. You had them disguised as fishermen to settle in the area, comprising six families. Partly for disguise, partly for ease of contact.
Your arrival indeed thrilled the soldiers at the contact point. They immediately rowed a small boat, taking you to Lake Heart Island.
The little boat swayed while entering the reed fields, where you found it difficult to trace the path despite your stays. The reeds towered at least three to four meters high, completely obstructing view while surrounded by vast waters. Those unfamiliar with the route couldn’t possibly find it, making it a naturally formed secret sanctuary.
