Lian Que had brought many people with him, and all of them were martial arts experts.
No matter how hard Jing Rong and Bai Yin tried, they wouldn't last long.
The two of them were quickly surrounded.
Several sharp swords were aimed at them.
Jing Rong didn't have any weapons on him, so he could only grab a sword from one of the assassins.
Bai Yin wielded the scimitar she always carried with her and fought with their swords.
They were evenly matched.
"I told you to leave first," Jing Rong said to Bai Yin.
However, Bai Yin refused. "I can't leave you here alone."
"Don't worry about me. Take Yunshu away from here first. I'll only be at ease when she's gone. Hurry!"
"No!"
"I'll shake them off and meet up with you."
Jing Rong grabbed Bai Yin's wrist and threw him out of the encirclement.
He roared, "Go!"
Bai Yin was hesitant. If he left, Jing Rong would have a hard time fending off so many people. However, for the sake of the bigger picture, he could only follow Jing Rong's instructions. He would take Yunshu away first, then think of a way to save Jing Rong.
He said, "Alright, hold on for now!"
With that, he immediately ran back to the front yard.
When the assassins saw this, they wanted to chase after him, but Jing Rong immediately blocked their way.
Fortunately, there was only one passageway to the front yard!
With Jing Rong blocking the way, no one could chase after him.
The seven or eight people also focused all of their martial power on Jing Rong.
He could still hold on!
But he didn't know how long he could hold on.
The sound of weapons clashing quickly attracted the attention of the waiter in the inn.
When he arrived, he was frightened by the scene in front of him.
"What... What's going on?"
His voice was trembling.
How could guests fight when they just checked in?
He knew that he couldn't persuade them, so he ran to tell the innkeeper.
The innkeeper was still calculating money on his abacus!
Because he was so engrossed in his calculations, he didn't notice the noise coming from behind him.
He was still muttering that he had made a few mistakes in his calculations.
The waiter hurriedly ran over and shouted, "Innkeeper, bad news! There's a fight in the backyard. Hurry and go take a look."
"What?" The innkeeper's abacus stopped.
His eyes widened abruptly.
He couldn't believe it.
"What did you say?"
"There's a fight in the backyard. It's the people who are staying here today. You'd better go and take a look. Otherwise … otherwise, someone might die."
That would be terrible!
The shopkeeper's face turned pale and he rushed over.
He couldn't be bothered to calculate the money.
Fortunately, only Jing Rong and Lian Que's group were staying at the inn tonight.
Otherwise, who knew how big of a commotion it would be.
When the shopkeeper ran over and saw the scene in the backyard, he quickly slapped his thigh and cried out bitterly, "Aiya, what's going on? Dear guests, please be lenient! Stop fighting, stop fighting. If you keep fighting, I'm afraid my inn will have to close down. "
They didn't hear what he said at all. Instead, they fought even more fiercely.
The assassins almost took his life with every strike.
The Sparrow Sword closed in on him.
Jing Rong was also finding it more and more difficult.
The potted plants in the backyard were also smashed to pieces.
Crackling sounds rang out!
The shopkeeper had a headache and was sweating profusely. "Aiyo, my flowers and plants! Don't fight anymore, heroes! Brave warriors! I beg you, please stop fighting. "
The waiter rubbed his hands anxiously. He asked the shopkeeper, "Why don't … Why don't we report this to the authorities?"
"What authorities?" The shopkeeper smacked him on the head. "If this gets out of hand, how much money will I lose? I'm sure no one will come to eat anymore. "
"But, if they keep fighting like this, what should we do?"
The shopkeeper was vexed.
He couldn't be more anxious!
He didn't know what to do.
He could only clasp his hands and pray that they would stop smashing things.
Moreover, they mustn't kill anyone!
At this moment, Ji Yunshu seemed to hear some noise coming from outside. She went out to take a look and saw a few guards guarding Jing Rong outside.
"Did something happen?" she asked.
The guards also heard the noise, but they didn't know what happened. "I'll go take a look."
They were about to go downstairs when they saw Bai Yin rushing up the stairs.
Bai Yin hurried up from below and grabbed Ji Yunshu's hand. "We have to leave this place as soon as possible."
"What?"
Ji Yunshu was confused.
Bai Yin ordered the guards, "Bring her things. Hurry."
The guards didn't understand what was going on, but they quickly carried Ji Yunshu's bag and the two sandalwood boxes according to Bai Yin's order.
Bai Yin then ordered the guards, "You two, bring Song Zhi."
"Yes."
Ji Yunshu didn't understand what was going on at all. She was already being dragged downstairs by Bai Yin.
Song Zhi had also heard the noise outside.
He put on his clothes and walked out of the house.
As soon as he stepped out, the guards' seized 'him and dragged him downstairs.
"You … What are you doing? What happened? "Song Zhi asked.
The guards didn't reply.
They dragged him downstairs with Bai Yin.
Bai Yin pulled Ji Yunshu towards the direction of the stable.
She heard the noise coming from the backyard, but she didn't see Jing Rong. She suddenly realized something.
She flung Bai Yin's hand away. "Did something happen to him?"
Bai Yin said, "You go first."
"No! I can't leave him behind. "
She wanted to rush to the backyard, but Bai Yin immediately pulled her back.
However, he was immediately pulled back by Bai Yin. "Listen to him. Leave this place first."
"No!"
But she was no match for Bai Yin.
In the end, she was dragged to the inn's stable.
Bai Yin pushed her into the carriage.
Song Zhi was also pushed into the same carriage.
Ji Yunshu pulled on Bai Yin's clothes, her face full of worry. "Brother, I can't go! I can't leave him alone. "
Bai Yin said seriously, "Leave with them first. I promise, I won't let anything happen to him."
"Brother …"
"We will catch up with you." Bai Yin turned to the four guards. "Escort her to a safe place and wait for us."
"Yes!"
Bai Yin pushed away Ji Yunshu's hand that was tugging at her clothes and ran towards Jing Rong's direction.
The guards immediately drove the carriage away.
… …
Jing Rong's strength was almost exhausted.
The eight people's martial arts were too high.
He was forced to retreat several steps.
The sword in his hand couldn't block them!
Lian Que was determined to kill him. He held his sword and aimed it at his heart.
At that moment, the innkeeper's face turned pale with fright.
If someone really died here, his Century-Old Inn would never be able to open again!
He fainted on the spot.
"Innkeeper!" The waiter immediately supported him and dragged him away to avoid harming the innocent.
He didn't want to die yet!
