Clouds and Moon Shadow

Chapter 206 The action begins!

What are you waiting for?

She didn't want to wait for this group to do bad things outside Nanchong Pass before trying to fix it.

She wanted to nip this possibility in the bud!

Of course, they don't have enough people this time, but that's okay. As long as they can stifle the enemy's main force or prevent them from causing trouble, that's enough.

Watching Gu Yuanen climb up a large, lush tree nearby in a few quick movements, Gu Qingyue made a gesture towards the distance.

The action begins!

The two groups, totaling twelve people, each wielding a sword, moved towards the valley floor to the left front.

"Who?" Pei Jiu keenly sensed the slight movement and shouted sharply.

Upon hearing his shout, all twelve people ran downhill.

Pei Jiu signaled the men behind him to give chase, and a moment later, the two sides were locked in combat, and the sound of swords and spears filled the mountain forest.

According to the plan, the first wave of people to go out will definitely not linger.

The other side had just sent out seventeen or eighteen men, while the black-clad guards inside the cave only stirred for a short while before falling silent and not coming out.

Gu Qingyue watched from afar and estimated that her group of twelve could easily hold off the enemy.

Fifteen minutes later, the twelve men began to retreat into the woods on the left, pursued relentlessly by the enemy.

Gu Qingyue watched as Pei Jiu's cold face grew darker and darker, and she smiled wryly.

The second wave has begun.

Gu Qingyue made a hand gesture, and Gu Yuanen's three sharp arrows shot out from the sky, heading towards Pei Jiu.

"Somebody come!"

A black-clad bodyguard beside him immediately shouted loudly.

They hadn't expected there to be archers lying in ambush here, and now Pei Jiu only had two people with him.

Pei Jiu immediately drew his longsword to parry.

With two clangs, the two arrows were knocked away.

The remaining one barely grazed Pei Jiu's arm, and a line of blood spurted out.

Excellent archery!

Gu Qingyue clapped her hands.

The guards inside the cave rushed out upon hearing the noise.

With a single gesture from Pei Jiu, five or six people rushed toward them.

Ha! Very cautious! Only a few people came?

Gu Qingyue gestured behind her again, and two groups immediately moved to the right to surround her.

They paid no attention to the men in black rushing towards Gu Qingyue and her companion.

Gu Qingyue made another hand gesture, and then she rushed alone towards the five or six people flying towards her.

In a single exchange, Gu Qingyue brandished a long military dagger.

Three blades, three blood grooves—this was also the cold weapon she used in her previous life.

She made her own improvements, making it lightweight, sharp, and sturdy.

Because it was too bloody, it was once banned from use by the militaries of various countries. She was a special agent and used it secretly because her mission required it, so naturally it was not restricted.

The change of weapon was also to avoid being associated with Doctor Gu and to conceal his identity.

After three or four rounds, three people had already fallen to the ground and were unable to get up.

Gu Qingyue made a preliminary assessment of their combat strength.

This scene shocked Pei Jiu, who was watching from afar!

From a distance, it appears to be a woman with a slender figure, dressed in a black outfit, her dark hair tied up high, her face covered, and holding a strange, extremely sharp weapon that would almost certainly injure anyone who touched it. Who is she?

He tightened his grip on the longsword, gave an order to the person next to him, and then charged at Gu Qingyue with his sword.

"It's up to you now," Gu Qingyue said to Gu Yuanen, and then rushed towards Pei Jiu.

The moment the two exchanged blows, both felt a slight unease in their hearts.

Gu Qingyue knew very well that this was probably the most troublesome opponent she had encountered so far.

However, she is no longer a newbie who has just arrived in this world.

The two body tempering sessions and the resulting improvement in internal strength have infused this body with boundless energy.

After nearly a hundred moves, she swiftly brought her knife down, slashing Pei Jiu's left arm and back with long gashes, causing blood to spurt out.

Gu Qingyue felt a little regretful. This person was indeed exceptionally skilled. If it were anyone else, they would probably be riddled with holes.

Pei Jiu was greatly alarmed!

He had been the leader of the secret guards for five years and had never encountered such a formidable opponent!

Especially since she's a woman.

His first attack failed, so he immediately retreated.

He raised his hand and whistled, then darted towards the cave.

With a whoosh, three sharp arrows pierced the air and shot towards Pei Jiu.

Just as the arrow was about to strike his back, at the critical moment, a black-clad guard stepped forward, raised his sword to block, and was ultimately pierced through the body by the arrow, falling from the sky and dying, while Pei Jiu had already reached a distance.

Gu Qingyue watched from behind with a sigh of regret; this guy really had a tough life!

Just then, twelve men rushed out of the woods on the right and engaged in a fierce battle with the guards stationed in front of the cave. In an instant, shouts of battle rose from all sides.

"Retreat!" Pei Jiu shouted.

Upon hearing Pei Jiu's order, the black-clad guards abandoned their opponents and immediately retreated into the woods on the left.

How could Gu Qingyue possibly let them go at this time?

She lightly touched the ground with her feet and caught up with the group in a moment, and the melee began.

Fifteen minutes later, Pei Jiu was wounded twice more, once in the lower back and once in the chest.

Especially his lower back, which was pierced by a long spear. Although he was saved from immediate death by other guards, he was no longer able to fight.

Gu Qingyue stopped and stood not far away, watching three or four black-clad guards protect Pei Jiu as he retreated. There was also a short black-clad guard protecting him as he retreated.

Gu Qingyue narrowed her eyes, sensing something unusual.

No wonder the guards in the cave didn't come out; it turns out there was an important person to protect.

The short man clearly didn't know martial arts. Seeing the nervous look on the guards' faces, Gu Qingyue smiled.

Gu Qingyue gave another signal, and the last group suddenly appeared, blocking the group's path.

Yue Ling flew up and landed beside Gu Qingyue.

"Grab that short guy," Gu Qingyue pointed and gave Yue Ling two black pills.

Yue Ling nodded and immediately led her men to give chase.

The melee continues.

Gu Yuanen also rushed over, looking at the people fighting in front of him, and asked worriedly, "What do we do next?"

"Watch the game, see if we can lose?"

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuanen carefully examined the masked young men in black.

They noticed that their moves were somewhat strange, and very similar to Gu Qingyue's.

Furthermore, their fighting style is quite bizarre.

They didn't fight one-on-one, but rather in groups of several, and their teamwork was incredibly close!

Gu Yuanen stared wide-eyed as he watched the target being knocked down or killed in a matter of moments.

Is this really how you fight an enemy?

It was neither a chaotic massacre nor a military campaign like that of an army. So what was it?

He was both surprised and excited, watching in awe as the enemy's black-clad guards fell one after another.

Remembering the black pill Gu Qingyue had just given Yue Ling, Gu Yuanen asked curiously, "What are those black pills?"

“Uh… a kind of poisonous gas,” Gu Qingyue smiled slyly, “I just remembered it at the last minute.”

That was a black pill she casually made when she was making her own animal-repelling powder, which could attract most wild animals.

This is actually a kind of medicinal powder. Once you get it on your skin, you will be chased by wild beasts. They love it.

Of course, this effect is something she imagined; she hasn't tested it on large animals yet.

She only sprinkled a little on Little Moon's fur to test it out.

It was released into the mountains and forests, where it was chased by a pack of jackals and badgers for three days and three nights.

When he returned, the red-haired boy turned black and pitifully complained to Gu Qingyue for an entire afternoon.

The issue was eventually resolved peacefully after I watched myself take a bath twice.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingyue felt a little ashamed.

She, a top-notch special agent, actually had to sacrifice her charm to appease a little furball!
