Shi Ziran carefully observed the situation outside.
A group of soldiers passed by.
"Your Highness, we can go now."
"Yes."
Shi Ziran walked in front while Jing Rong held Ji Yunshu's hand and followed closely behind.
Unexpectedly …
Just as they stepped out, a sharp arrow flew towards them.
The target was Jing Rong!
In an instant, Jing Rong tilted his body and raised his hand, firmly catching the arrow. He threw it in a certain direction and the arrow fiercely pierced into a wooden pillar.
Seeing this, Shi Ziran immediately took a defensive stance.
At the same time, many Yue soldiers rushed out with swords and sabers in hand.
They surrounded the three of them.
Jing Rong immediately shielded Ji Yunshu behind him, not letting go of her hand.
He turned his head and whispered, "Follow me."
She pursed her pale lips and nodded.
As long as this man was by her side, she would feel completely safe.
Even if they were surrounded by the Yue soldiers and their sharp sabers pointed at them, even if they were in the middle of a tiger's den, she would not be afraid.
As long as Jing Rong was there, she would not be afraid.
"How interesting!"
A person walked out from the crowd.
It was Yuan Shihao!
The corners of his mouth curled into a wolf-like grin, as if one could see his bloody fangs. His gaze swept from Jing Rong to Ji Yunshu, then met Jing Rong's cold gaze once again.
Jing Rong knew him. This person was Huhe Hao.
An extremely ambitious person!
When the late emperor was still alive, the court officials had repeatedly mentioned this person in their memorials. This person was a bloodthirsty Tibetan mastiff of the grasslands. He was a character that people would tremble in fear at the mere mention of his name. At first, people thought that he was just a small force, but unexpectedly, this malignant tumor grew bigger and bigger, almost spreading to the entire grasslands.
Ma Yinghao took a few steps forward with his iron boots and looked down at the three lambs in front of him. He clapped his hands and laughed.
"It's easy to enter my camp, but it's hard to leave."
Jing Rong's eyes darkened as he coldly scanned his surroundings. There were layers upon layers of Yue soldiers surrounding them like an impenetrable fortress. It was clear that the situation was not good. It was impossible to force their way through. His thin lips curled up slightly as he looked at Ma Yinghao's sinister face.
"You'd better step aside immediately." His tone was not only cold, but also commanding.
Ma Yinghao was shocked by his aura!
He sneered, "You can beg me."
Hehe.
"You should be the one begging me."
"What?"
"Your Yue Dan is located far away in the Western Grasslands. You should be staying there peacefully. Now that you've stationed your troops here, your intentions are clear. But have you ever thought that there's not only Houliao in front of you that you want to annex, there's also Great Lin!"
Ugh!
Hohhot trembled.
He understood Jing Rong's meaning. If Yue Dan annexed Hou Liao, there would definitely be a war in the Central Plains in the future. Great Lin was a powerful country, and a mere Yue Dan wasn't enough. Jing Rong was … warning him not to overdo it.
It was also a reminder to him.
Ma Yinghao had roamed the grasslands for many years, so he had the ability to judge people. He could sense that the man in front of him was not a junior.
"What are you trying to say?"
"What I want to tell you is that Yue Dan's domination of the west is already great, but …" His gaze froze. "Of all the things you shouldn't have done, you shouldn't have thought about taking over Hou Liao and fighting your way into the central plains. You shouldn't have captured my people either."
He had touched everything else except his woman.
He would never let go of anyone who touched her!
Ma Yinghao could feel Jing Rong's powerful aura pressing down on him.
He couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Jing Rong continued, "Huhe Hao, what your father couldn't conquer in the past, you can't conquer today either. If you don't want Yue Dan to be destroyed in your hands, then immediately order your people to move aside. Don't make me remind you anymore."
He had already reminded him of what he needed to remind him.
Hmph! Ma Yinghao was thoroughly enraged. He clenched his teeth and said with a fierce expression, "The world belongs to ambitious people. What my father couldn't do, I will do! What he couldn't conquer, I will take. I don't care who you are, and I don't care how you know all these things.
In short, if you want to leave today, it won't be that easy. "
Yue Dan's soldiers glared at him. Because of his words, all of them raised their sabers and stepped forward.
They were only waiting for the order!
"Jing Rong." Ji Yunshu held his hand tightly and leaned close to him. She whispered, "Ma Yinghao is a vicious and merciless person. We can't fight him head-on now. We have to find an opportunity to leave."
Jing Rong looked back at her. "Trust me."
They were two simple people!
The apprehension and worry in her heart were swept away.
She nodded and tightened her grip on Jing Rong's hand.
Ma Yinghao didn't see any trace of fear in them. They seemed to be very hopeful and very dissatisfied.
He was a pervert who enjoyed seeing fear and dread in other people's eyes!
Just when those soldiers were waiting for him to give the order to kill them, he suddenly had another idea. He took a step forward and revealed a sinister expression. "However, Yue Dan has a rule. If you want a woman, you have to rely on your own ability. The woman will belong to whoever wins."
Suddenly …
"I snatched this woman from her."
A voice came.
The crowd parted to form a path.
Bai Yin!
He walked to Ma Yinghao's side and glanced at Ji Yunshu. Then, he stared at Jing Rong with a ruthless expression. "I will fight with you. If you win, this woman will belong to you. Otherwise, no one can take her away today."
He was very resolute and would never back down!
What?
"That night in the forest, it was you?" Jing Rong asked.
"That's right. I kidnapped her from the hot spring and brought her here. So, this woman is mine. If you want to take her away, you must defeat me."
At that moment, Jing Rong's eyes flashed with a bloodthirsty murderous intent.
He was just worried about finding out who kidnapped Ji Yunshu that night, but that person jumped out of nowhere. Very good!
That life, he was determined to take!
At that moment, Ji Yunshu could feel his grip on her hand was very tight.
Ma Yinghao laughed and patted Bai Yin's shoulder. "Bai Yin, haven't you always wanted this woman? Very well! As long as you can defeat him, this woman will be yours from now on. "
Fan the flames.
Bai Yin unsheathed a dagger from her waist and pointed it at Jing Rong. "Draw your sword."
Provocation!
That dagger was extremely sharp!
Facing the flickering shadows of the fire, it still shone with a cold light.
Jing Rong wasn't afraid. He just turned to look at Ji Yunshu.
With just one look, she already understood what he meant.
"Jing Rong …"
"He must pay the price." The words that came out of his mouth were full of murderous intent.
She knew that she couldn't stop him.
