Rebirth: Living in Wilderness with My Superpower
Chapter 677 - 687: A Mohist?

Chapter 677: Chapter 687: A Mohist?

The Underground Palace was roughly eighty square meters, and because the palace was bound, the outdoor space expanded once again, adding eighty square meters to a hundred square meter courtyard.

Besides the wild grass, the eighty-square-meter courtyard also had many unnamed wild berries.

Bai Junjun had just thought to enjoy it when she suddenly heard a noise outside.

Bai Junjun could only temporarily suppress the urge to check the space and went outside.

The two hurried out of the Underground Palace, just as the palace struggled in its death throes, and they emerged back to the familiar straw hut, where the two bare-butted guards still lay on the ground.

Furthermore, the Caped Old Man had arrived at some point, holding a slender woman by the arm.

The old man’s pallid hand tightly clenched the woman’s neck, his eyes full of cold murderous intent.

"Let... go of me."

The woman harshly slapped the old man’s hand, but he did not move.

Bai Junjun and Li Wenli exchanged glances, recognizing the woman as none other than Lady Lin.

The old man’s face was indifferent, "I let you go last night, yet you insisted on coming here to seek death. Since that’s the case, why call for help?"

"I... didn’t." Lady Lin gasped for breath while continuously slapping his hand, but the old man’s fingers only tightened more.

Realizing that showing weakness was hopeless, Lady Lin suddenly raised her hand, shooting a flying crossbow from her sleeve.

Turned out, Lady Lin’s bracelet was a cleverly hidden weapon.

The old man, caught off guard, was struck in the face and he flung Lady Lin aside.

Lady Lin rolled onto the ground, coughing repeatedly, but knowing the direness of the situation, she immediately got up without catching her breath and continued to launch hidden weapons at the people.

Only now did Bai Junjun realize Lady Lin’s prowess as she saw her bracelet operate like a machine gun, continuously shooting silver needles, each one poisoned, causing anyone unfortunate enough to be stricken by a needle to fall and not get up.

When her bracelet ran out of silver needles, she then pulled out a hairpin from her head and pointed it at the old man, continuing to retreat.

Those people had not expected such powerful hidden weapons from a seemingly frail woman!

However, Lady Lin was backed up against the outhouse, with no way out, and her ammunition was limited.

Yet, the old man had an unending supply of reinforcements; even if she took down one batch, a second and third batch would follow.

Thus, both sides were deadlocked.

The old man looked at her solemnly, "If I’m not mistaken, you are from the Mohist, aren’t you?"

"Who I am does not concern you," Lady Lin retorted defiantly with a smirk.

"!"

Bai Junjun and Li Wenli were shocked, a Mohist?

They couldn’t help but glance at Lady Lin.

In the past, Lame Man Uncle had mentioned having a master and a lovely little junior sister.

Could it be... this was the legendary junior sister of Lame Man Uncle?

But...

Lady Lin looked no older than twenty-seven or twenty-eight, yet Lame Man Uncle appeared well over fifty with a weathered face...

She had thought his junior sister would be his age...

Bai Junjun was so astonished she didn’t know what else to say.

But indeed, Lame Man Uncle had given her a token, asking her to carry it on her person and saying that if his junior sister was fated to see it, she would recognize it.

However, with everything that had happened recently, she had forgotten about it and the token was still lying somewhere in a corner of the space.

While Bai Junjun was still dazed, the old man launched another attack.

Lady Lin’s pearl hairpin was no less formidable.

Not understanding which mechanism she had triggered, the pearl hairpin opened like an umbrella and started spinning automatically, sending out countless fine needles crazily during its rotation.
