Chapter 366: Bafflingly Complex
# 366. Bafflingly Complex
The convoy consisted of sword- and spear-wielding Jianghu warriors. Hearing that the great Lady Flying Swallow had come, they had flocked to her in great numbers.
This was their third expedition to hunt the barbarian raiders. Thanks to the unmatched martial prowess of the Lady Flying Swallow, they returned victorious once again. This time, they had slain 120 barbarian raiders, captured 50 warhorses, seized 68 sabres, and reclaimed women and food stolen by the raiders.
Some losses occurred during the skirmishes—damaged warhorses, broken sabres, and casualties among the women and provisions.
The soldiers guarding the city squinted toward the horizon and spotted the heroic figure on a white horse, her appearance both spirited and exquisite. Recognizing the Lady Flying Swallow, they quickly alerted the sentries on the walls and stepped forward, spears in hand, to greet her.
"Lady Flying Swallow, you're back! Ah, you've killed so many barbarians again this time!"
"Quick, escort the Lady to the Constabulary for her reward."
The guards were thrilled, revering her as a paragon of chivalry and an idol worth following.
Two columns of soldiers led the way, escorting Li Miaozhen and her entourage into the city. The townsfolk lined the streets, cheering for the Lady Flying Swallow and marveling at the barbarian corpses being brought in.
