Chapter 440: Chapter 438 Lin Clan’s Son Arrives_1
“Dinglingling.”
Flying arrows with bells attached shot towards the pirate leader.
“Boss, watch out!”
The remaining bandits were panic-stricken.
The pirate leader quickly sidestepped, avoiding the arrow.
“Dinglingling.”
However, before he could even rejoice, the arrow made a miraculous half-turn in mid-air, changing direction and targeting his heart from behind.
“Puff.”
He couldn’t dodge the fatal attack this time, as the arrow pierced through his heart, causing a mouthful of blood to gush out before he collapsed.
“The boss is dead!”
“Avenge the boss!”
Seeing that the boy had run out of arrows, the remaining bandits rushed towards the small courtyard.
“Yi’er!”
Watching the dangerous situation, the girl disregarded her mother’s objections and rushed out of the house with a kitchen knife to stand in front of the boy.
“Sister, go back!”
The anxious boy grabbed her arm forcefully and pulled her back.
“Yi’er, you’ve done your best. Let your sister protect you now.”
The girl stood firm, holding the kitchen knife and returning a gentle smile.
“Sister.”
Moved, the boy threw away his bow, picked up a wooden stick from the ground, and stood shoulder to shoulder with his sister.
Fires raged, and the siblings were engulfed within the shadow of death. At the moment when pirates broke into their courtyard, divine soldiers descended from the heavens.
Lin Jinxu, Lin Jinzhou, Lin Qingluo, and Wang Meng, arrived on horseback, slashing their swords and killing the remaining pirates.
“The pirates are dead!”
“We’re saved!”
The villagers who survived rejoiced in tears, embracing their loved ones and crying bitterly.
**
“The pirates are dead? We’re saved?”
In the courtyard, the boy and girl looked at each other in disbelief, unable to comprehend the scene before them.
A small kingfisher appeared in the sky, spitting a blazing flame from its mouth that enveloped the pirate and his blade, turning them to ashes in an instant.
The remaining pirates, terrified, turned and fled, only to be chased down and killed by the four dashing young heroes on horseback.
“Yi’er, Liu’er, are you alright? Are you burned?”
Seeing the pirate being consumed by fire, the woman struggled to walk out of the house with trembling legs, barely able to stand.
“Mother, we’re fine.”
Hearing their mother’s voice, the siblings snapped out of their shock and hurried to her, supporting her on either side.
“As long as you’re safe, as long as you’re safe.”
The woman opened her arms, embracing her children while shedding tears of joy.
**
“Saviors!”
“Thank you for saving us. Please accept my humble bow.”
“Please accept our bows.”
Under the Village Chief’s guidance, the surviving villagers suppressed their grief and went out of their homes to kneel and thank their saviors.
The woman and her children were also among them.
“Old man, please, get up.”
Lin Jinxu dismounted, offering both hands to help the Old Village Chief up.
“Fellow villagers, there’s no need for this!”
Lin Jinzhou also jumped down from his horse and declared, “As members of the Lin Clan, we have the responsibility to protect the people of Fengqi Empire. We cannot allow pirates to kill at will.”
“Lin Clan’s warriors?!”
“Are you from Duke of Zhen’s mansion?”
“The Lin Clan Army?”
Upon hearing the words “Lin Clan’s warriors,” the villagers’ eyes brightened, filled with surprise and joy.
“Indeed, we are all brothers from the Lin Clan.”
Lin Jinxu replied solemnly, “We were traveling and happened to encounter the pirate attacks.”
“Heavens, you are really from the Lin Clan.”
“No wonder you are so powerful, killing the pirates.”
