Chapter 828: Chapter 828 An Unexpected Way (6)

"Blackie is ruthless," Si Jinhan disagreed. It was not easy for them to have come out from North Country, and he was reluctant to let her venture into danger alone.

"Let go," Lin Ziyin urged anxiously.

Yet, Luo Yan and Si Jinhan showed no signs of compromise.

"It seems that the people under the Princess of Ling are unwilling," Blackie said smugly, "then don’t blame me for being rude."

"I told you already, they won’t easily submit; why bother talking so much with them?" A middle-aged man appeared behind Lin Ziyin and the others.

"The National Master of North Country?" Lin Ziyin squinted her eyes.

Beside her, both Luo Yan and Si Jinhan tensed up, their bodies in the highest state of alert.

The National Master of North Country was not alone; standing beside him were Timur and a group of guards, all holding crossbows ready to shoot.

Caught between the wolf in front and the tiger behind, Lin Ziyin and her companions had become prey.

"I want this woman," the National Master pointed at Lin Ziyin.

Blackie burst out laughing, "Master of the Nation, it seems like our prior agreement didn’t go like this. You said you only wanted Si San and Luo Er."

"The National Master has changed his mind. What about trading those two for the Princess of Ling?" the National Master asked coldly, "I have use for this woman."

"Could it be that the National Master also has a knack for cherishing beauty?" Blackie mocked as he looked at the National Master.

Luo Yan and Si Jinhan, upon hearing this, were filled with rage and wished they could just slaughter him. Blackie’s words were a complete insult to Lin Ziyin.

Lin Ziyin was their princess of the Northern Land; insulting her was like insulting Prince Ling and themselves—a slight no man could tolerate.

Lin Ziyin raised her hand to stop them.

The more dangerous the moment, the less impulsive they should be. Lin Ziyin was exceptionally calm now, "Isn’t the National Master someone who looks down on women?"

She hoped to delay time to sort out her thoughts, but the National Master ignored her and continued to negotiate with Blackie, "Swap those two for her, and throw in an extra hundred thousand taels of silver."

Lin Ziyin didn’t expect to be so valuable in ancient times; she quickly thought of a plan.

Luo Yan sneered quietly, signaling his companions.

The numbers of archers targeting Blackie and the Tartars increased.

"Fine," Blackie agreed to the National Master’s proposal unexpectedly quickly.

A cold light flashed in Si Jinhan’s eyes.

Just then, the situation suddenly changed.

The crossbowmen on Blackie’s side and those on the National Master’s side fell down in rows, screams filling the air.

The change was so sudden, Blackie could hardly react.

"Damn you, Wa Tian." Once he regained his senses, many of his companions had already fallen.

An internal revolt? Lin Ziyin’s eyes brightened.

"Let’s go," Luo Yan commanded with a cold laugh.

Several men immediately took off running.

"You can’t escape," the National Master yelled; his soldiers behind him immediately rushed forward, weapons in hand.

"The ones who can’t escape are you," Chu Suifeng appeared, flashing out from a group of people in white.

The Prince? Both Blackie and the National Master were taken aback.

Then, they saw many people emerging from the hilltop.

"Prince," Lin Ziyin cried happily, seeing the bearded and disheveled Chu Suifeng, her tears finally overflowing.

Having not seen him for over a month, Chu Suifeng had suffered a lot and looked very disheveled. Undoubtedly, he had had a tough time during her absence.
