Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable-Chapter 82: The Crime of Gender

The barbarians who escaped from the tent were not safe because outside the tent stood Qin Shuangshuang, like an Asura descended upon the world, with her bow drawn and long knife unsheathed, waiting to harvest their heads.

The reason Qin Shuangshuang set the fire was to prevent the barbarians from taking up weapons. Now these barbarians, frightened by the fire, ran out barefoot and weaponless, falling right into Qin Shuangshuang’s trap.

Among the densely packed barbarians, Qin Shuangshuang swung her long knife in a circle, cutting down at least ten of them. Some barbarians, terrified by Qin Shuangshuang, tried to escape on horseback, only to find that their horses had already been set free by Qin Shuangshuang.

Although Hu Ma were very valuable, releasing them was equivalent to losing a significant amount of Silver, but to Qin Shuangshuang, Silver was far less important than killing these despicable barbarians!

This was a one-sided massacre; the unarmed barbarians were as powerless before Qin Shuangshuang as the defenseless Da Ran people once were before the barbarians. But the barbarians were somewhat Lucky, as Qin Shuangshuang would not torture them for amusement!

After the slaughter ended, Qin Shuangshuang counted the heads and found that Huyan Babur had underestimated the number of barbarians. There were at least two hundred and sixty when combined. Including the barbarians killed beforehand, this barbarian squad had nearly three hundred members!

After killing the barbarians, it should have been time to claim the spoils of war. Unfortunately, the Hu Ma had been set free, but the grain that the barbarians had looted from the Da Ran was still there. The horses used to pull the grain were not kept with the warhorses, so they had not been released by Qin Shuangshuang.

When Qin Shuangshuang started the fire earlier, her intention was only to force the barbarians out of the tents, so the fire was not large. Additionally, there was some distance between where the barbarians stored the grain and their lodging, so it was not affected.

After gathering the grain and the barbarians’ weapons, the Tie was also a very precious strategic resource. Although Qin Shuangshuang’s current knife weighed thirty jin, it still felt light and flimsy to her, like paper. Qin Shuangshuang planned to collect these barbarian weapons to forge a hundred-jin broadsword!

After tidying up everything, Qin Shuangshuang pulled Huyan Babur, bound tightly like a dumpling, out of the grass. She initially thought that after witnessing her massacre his fellow barbarians, this barbarian would be provoked and glare at her with hatred.

But contrary to Qin Shuangshuang’s expectations, the expression Huyan Babur gave her was filled only with flattery and deep fear, without the slightest trace of hatred! Qin Shuangshuang was somewhat surprised and raised her eyebrows; this person was either extremely cunning or truly a spineless coward.

However, considering that Huyan Babur had willingly led her to the barbarian territory, he seemed more like a coward. But one couldn’t be too sure; maybe he had brought her here in the hope that the barbarians would kill her! In that case, he would be incredibly deceptive and cunning.

Qin Shuangshuang actually had a plan that required Huyan Babur, but she needed to ensure that Huyan Babur was truly a spineless coward who could be threatened, otherwise, if Huyan Babur was pretending, she’d be in trouble.

Qin Shuangshuang weighed the decision to kill or not to kill him, but couldn’t make up her mind! Killing him would be simple without any future troubles, but her plan would be unimplementable. Not killing him left Qin Shuangshuang uncertain whether this barbarian was truly spineless.

Huyan Babur knew that Qin Shuangshuang was hesitating about whether to kill him. He wanted to plead for his life but feared that speaking might make Qin Shuangshuang decide to kill him. Remaining silent filled him with panic.

Waiting in the balance of life and death was extremely hard to endure, with every breath feeling like an eternity. Just as despair was about to set in, Qin Shuangshuang finally made up her mind—no risk, no reward! She decided to trust her judgment; Huyan Babur seemed like a coward!

Having decided, Qin Shuangshuang squatted in front of Huyan Babur, stared coldly at him until he was drenched in cold sweat, and then said, "You want to live!" This was not a question but an assertion.

Huyan Babur let out a long breath. As soon as Qin Shuangshuang spoke, he knew his life was spared. Despair turned quickly into ecstasy!

Huyan Babur’s mouth had been gagged by Qin Shuangshuang to prevent him from raising an alarm among the barbarians. So, he couldn’t speak now; instead, he nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, fearing that if he were too slow, this female harbinger of death might change her mind and kill him after all!

Qin Shuangshuang removed the object from his mouth and continued, "I can spare you, but from now on, you will do as I say. Next month on this day, meet me where I first encountered you; I’ll have instructions for you."

Huyan Babur nodded vigorously, promising, "This female General, rest assured, I will do as you say and will never betray you."

Qin Shuangshuang sneered, "Even if you did betray me, it doesn’t matter. I’m not a barbarian. If you sought revenge, you’d still have to find me first, and even if you found me, you’d need the skill to capture me! However, if you betray me, I will leave a survivor every time I kill a wave of barbarians to report to your leader that you have betrayed your own kind and led me to slaughter everyone who came out with you. You can imagine your fate without me having to spell it out!"

Huyan Babur shivered; this ploy was too ruthless. The barbarians’ treatment of traitors was far crueler than towards the Da Ran people! He absolutely did not want to experience it; he smiled ingratiatingly at Qin Shuangshuang, repeatedly assuring her that he would not betray her and would obediently follow her orders!

Qin Shuangshuang did not waste any more words with him, promptly undoing the ropes tying Huyan Babur. Once released, he quickly moved to ease his stiff and painful limbs.

Before Huyan Babur could fully stretch out, he saw Qin Shuangshuang, who had promised to release him, raise her knife towards him. Huyan Babur was so frightened that he wet himself again, thinking Qin Shuangshuang had changed her mind and wanted to kill him after all!

Even though he had been freed from his restraints, the terrified Huyan Babur dared not flee, collapsing to the ground with tears streaming down his face! Trembling, he pleaded, "Female General, aren’t you going to spare me? Please, Female General, spare my life!"

Qin Shuangshuang frowned; this barbarian was truly cowardly, "Don’t worry, I have no intention of killing you. But since everyone who came with you is dead, you’re the only one alive and unscathed. Your leader won’t believe you’re innocent. I’m just going to rough you up a bit so your leader won’t suspect you. Don’t worry, I’ll be gentle; it won’t be too severe!"

Without waiting for Huyan Babur to react, she kicked him over and slashed him across the back!
