Chapter 632: Lin the Hero’s Instructions Are Really Useful

Zhao Lei’s surprise attack crashed into another surprise attack waiting for him.

Who were those people? He couldn’t tell, but they certainly didn’t look friendly—probably the Royal Guards.

In this pitch-black night, it was no easy feat to identify which army was which. Anyone brandishing a sword or gun, if they suddenly retreated, would surely cause chaos, and fighting was inevitable.

Kill! Charge for heaven’s sake!

Zhao Lei came in hot, rallying his troops, and charged straight into the oncoming throng of soldiers.

Lin Nuo and his crew found it odd, as they wondered if they had encountered a master who saw through Zhao Lei’s ploy to feign retreat and then circle back for a night attack.

Well, holy moly, that’s actually impressive!

In a narrow alley, the brave would prevail—today, it was either you die or you die.

Kill!

“Chop these Royal Guards down, and everyone can become a landlord!”

In this spirit-cultivating world, being a landlord was an enticing proposition—having a large plot of land, hiring farmers, and squeezing them dry to get rich quick.

Especially for the subordinates who had always been at the bottom, dreaming of flipping the tables and enjoying that landlord life too!

Lin Nuo’s words really pumped them up; they charged forward like they had just been injected with adrenaline, determined to become landlords after this battle.

Mu Yiting thought how generous Lin Nuo was, letting his subordinates become landlords.

Little did she know, Lin Nuo was playing some serious chess—charging into battle would surely cost a lot of lives, and those who died would go begging the King of Hell for their landlord status. As for the survivors? They could divvy up some land after doing some reclamation work.

He was a pro at promoting productivity, after all.

The two sides clashed, the air filled with shouts, each person wielding a firebrand, some dropping them as they fought, igniting the bushes and lighting up the dark night with fierce flames.

Lin Nuo stayed at the back, not charging forward, after all, he didn’t know if there was someone named Luo Yi among the crowd. In that pitch-black night, if a beam of golden light suddenly blazed forth, it would blind his titanium alloy villain eyes, illuminating the landscape and bringing a wave of shock that could take out the entire army.

So, if all these people can die, as long as he survived, that would be fine.

Mu Yiting was practically invincible, able to activate her Fury Pill explosion; even if she became a ‘real woman’ for only a few minutes, she could probably go toe-to-toe with the Great威天龙.

After charging in, there was no golden light to be seen, let alone the imposing presence of the Great威天龙. The princess hadn’t even made an appearance, so it seemed he was overthinking things.

Alright then, time for me to jump in and slice a few people.

With that, Lin Nuo surged forward, sword in hand, transforming into a warrior on display, slashing at anyone in sight. It had been ages since he charged into battle and cut down a horde, reminiscing about those days when he single-handedly butchered an entire battalion.

This time, despite Zhao Lei’s numbers, Lin Nuo’s side had elite troops—swift and decisive strikes—as the ones dreaming of landlord titles hacked away at the foes who screamed in agony.

Zhao Lei’s rebel group just couldn’t hold up; their formation broke as they fled.

But their retreat was blocked, and they could only run forward, making a big detour to escape.

Now, with all this noise, how could Luo Xiaoxue not notice? They also began to retreat, but in the direction they intended to flee came a crowd of rebels, led by Zhao Lei, whom she recognized from their prior negotiations.

The rebel cavalry charged like the wind, apparently targeting them.

Suddenly, Luo Xiaoxue understood what was going on—so Lin the Hero’s command to retreat was not without purpose; rebels were lying in wait to ambush them from behind!

So that’s what he was planning! Lin the Hero really saw this coming and gave her timely advice.

If they were hit by an ambush from the rebels, it would be disastrous with so many people, and in this dark night, there would be immense casualties.

However, observing that the rebels weren’t too aggressive, they looked like they were retreating in panic.

“Report!”

A subordinate rushed in to update Luo Xiaoxue and the others.

“We have two factions fighting on the west side; it’s an absolute mess, and one side is fleeing in fear!”

“Is the fleeing army them?”

Luo Xiaoxue pointed toward the rebels, who didn’t seem like they were attacking at all; their momentum was lacking.

“Yes, but we don’t know about the other side. It’s too chaotic to see clearly.”

“Alright, I understand.”

Luo Xiaoxue had figured it out—there was no doubt it was Helong Hall.

Clearly, Lin the Hero had infiltrated Helong Hall, knowing they intended to feign retreat only to counterattack, so he instructed her to leave to avoid this counterstrike.

Besides, he must have calculated the rebels’ attacking route and subtly guided Helong Hall to strike the rebels, lightening their own burden.

Now that the rebels were in flight, what should they do?

Since Lin the Hero suggested she leave, she definitely couldn’t linger here—she had to do something.

Alright, the rebels were fleeing, and it was time to capitalize on this! What a great opportunity to seize their power!

“Let’s chase after them!”

Luo Xiaoxue leaned closer, softly giving Han Xiao the command.

“Don’t pursue a retreating enemy; it’s dark, and the terrain is unfavorable—there could be a trap.”

“There’s no trap, trust me, this is an opportunity we cannot miss! This would mean a lot for us! Just to be safe, let’s send all soldiers to attack!”

“All of them? What about this land…”

“Forget it; give it to Helong Hall.”

Luo Xiaoxue had already recognized Lin Nuo’s intention; Helong Hall had their eyes set on this land, and since the Royal Guards were battling them, there was no benefit. That’s why Lin Nuo asked them to retreat, leaving some perks for Helong Hall to pacify them.

But this retreat wasn’t a complete withdrawal; it was a repositioning.

The new target? The rebels!

To gather the rebels and expand their influence—that was his plan!

“Then… okay then…”

Han Xiao, unaware of the intricacies, could only comply.

To be honest, the battle plan of this princess was really hard to comprehend; the saying goes not to chase a retreating enemy, especially since it’s dark—a high probability it’s an ambush. Anyone with a bit of military knowledge would know that.

Yet everyone pursued—what a mess!

Baffled, perhaps there was indeed some profundity.

Han Xiao quickly dispatched troops, all of them pursuing the rebels with relentless fervor, leading them right to the rebels’ stronghold.

Zhao Lei was shocked, wondering how after just one wave of battle, this many troops came rushing in!

This army had an entirely different style from the last lot.

Zhao Lei hadn’t even regrouped his panicked forces when the Royal Guards came crashing in, causing a meltdown.

After a brutal clash, the rebels ultimately couldn’t withstand the Royal Guards’ might; leaders Zhao Lei, Hu Shu, and others were captured.

“Why, why did this happen?”

He was baffled, consumed with impotent rage.

“Ha! Everything has been calculated by the masters; falling into our hands was merely a matter of time.”

Luo Xiaoxue raised her sword, addressing the captured Zhao Lei with solemnity.

At that moment, Lin Nuo’s sneak attack on the Royal Guards turned out to be a futile endeavor.
