Chapter 621: Chapter 626 Changing Battle Situation_1
"Third Master, how are you?"
The underling asked timidly, only wanting to say that he had just not seen anything.
So... please, don’t kill him to silence him.
"Not dead yet! What are you panicking about?" Xuan Qing clutched his shoulder wound.
Having lost so much face in front of his men, he was feel both ashamed and enraged, wishing he could tear Qiao Duo’er to pieces.
He, Xuan San, had a lifetime of glory, but had never expected to capsize in the hands of a woman!
Qiao Duo’er, very well, it had been a long time since anyone made him bleed!
On the other side, once the child was safely back, Lord Qin ordered his people to retreat first, as they were too few in number and could easily suffer against the greater forces of Xuan Eagle Mountain Village.
However, Xuan Eagle Mountain Village wouldn’t last much longer; once the garrison arrived, their end would come!
The others immediately complied, unscathed and having hunted several eagles, they had already made a big profit from this sortie.
But as soon as they made a move, the Mountain Eagle behind Xuan San hurriedly reported: "Third Master, they are escaping!"
"What are you waiting for? Chase them now! If one of them escapes today, you all die!" Xuan Qing ordered coldly.
"Yes! I will stay to look after the Third Master; everyone else go chase!"
Mountain Eagle gave an order, taking advantage of Chu Sandao’s absence today to finally enjoy a moment of glory.
Due to Xuan San’s words, his men dared not be negligent; before long, they caught up and tangled with the enemy.
Xuan San seized the opportunity to command the eagles to attack.
Though Qiao Duo’er’s party was small, they were not deterred and had a clear division of roles.
The guards confronted the Mountain Bandits, while Qiao Duo’er and Tan Zhenghong dealt with the eagles, and those who were not skilled in martial arts were protected in the middle.
Confident with the eagles on his side, Xuan Qing brought only a little more than thirty bandits, and the guards, facing three to one, were not overwhelmed.
The eagles, smelling blood, were very excited but didn’t dare to approach for fear of poisoned Sleeve Arrows, so they could only circle overhead, continuously issuing warning cries.
That is to say, the men from Xuan Eagle Mountain Village didn’t gain any advantage, and this made Xuan San even more furious.
Being suppressed and fought on their own territory, if this got out, how could he show his face in the martial world?
"Release another twenty eagles!" Xuan San ordered once more.
"Third Master, our village has just over sixty adult eagles; isn’t using thirty to deal with them a bit too many?"
Mountain Eagle advised, noting that eagles were the ace of Xuan Eagle Mountain Village; they were showing half of their hand to just a few people. What would they do when real enemies came?
He also heard that Lord Qin was very shrewd and would sooner or later target Xuan Eagle Mountain Village; wasn’t this the time when they should be conserving strength and storing up energy?
He could think of this; how could the Third Master not?
But Xuan Qing’s actions showed that he really hadn’t thought that much.
He just wanted to capture Qin Longyun alive and force them to release Yin Yinyue.
Xuan Qing said fiercely, "Since when is it your turn to call the shots in the village? Do you want to die?"
"I dare not, I am off right now!" Mountain Eagle trotted away.
If the Third Master is making him do this, there must be a reason for it; he needn’t stir up trouble over the unnecessary.
Otherwise, his end would be the same as Chu Sandao’s but to minimize the loss of eagles, he secretly gathered many more men.
Soon twenty more eagles and fifty men joined the battle, and the tide turned abruptly.
They not only reversed the disadvantage but also scattered the opposition.
Tan Zhenghong and Qiao Duo’er were together, Qin Long was protected by two guards, Hu’s Clan was pulling along two daughters, and the rest were fighting on their own.
