The night was terrifyingly quiet.
These guards, who were like bandits just a moment ago, charging in with cruel killing intent, were now like children, completely giving up on resisting.
Although they could not see the face of the man in front of them, his dark figure was like a mountain, making it hard for them to breathe.
In front of him, they were just ants.
"Only one of you can go back alive."
The woman's clear and cold voice came from above.
In an instant, a figure fell from the sky.
The man caught her in his arms almost at the same time.
As soon as he landed, the guards could see him clearly.
The woman in front of them was one of their targets.
The moment they saw the woman, they could not help but think about it.
This woman did not know martial arts, so if they could hold her hostage, they might be able to escape.
Lin Mengya glanced at them casually and knew what they were thinking tomorrow.
She was so angry that she almost laughed. It seemed that everyone treated her as a vulnerable group.
Sure enough, one of the guards could not hold back. When Long Tianhao's back was facing them, he raised his knife and pounced on her.
But the man did not know what happened, but he staggered and fell at her feet.
This change of events made the guards stop their flirtatious thoughts again.
Lin Mengya snorted coldly, while Long Tianhao turned the guard over with his foot.
Under the dim moonlight, the guard was bleeding from his seven apertures, and he died a miserable death.
His eyes were wide open, and it was obvious that he did not know who had killed him.
"You overestimated yourself."
These four simple words summed up the cause of the guard's death.
As for the rest of the guards, their bodies turned limp and they curled into a ball.
Because none of them knew how their companion had died. Obviously, the two of them did not do anything.
Fear was dyed with a strange color.
In their eyes, the man and the woman were as powerful as ghosts.
"I'll say it for the last time, only one of you can go back alive to report. If you continue to be so wishy-washy, I don't need you anymore. It's just a report, it's not a difficult thing. "
She never showed mercy to her enemies.
Moreover, if it had been someone else today, he would have been dead by now.
Finally, someone moved.
However, the tip of the knife was aimed at his companion.
Betrayal was like a contagious disease.
They were clearly hesitant just now, but after the first person started, the people behind him also started to feel at ease.
She had already lost interest in watching such an ugly and beastly act.
"Go back and tell your master to let him come in person next time. I'll treat him well."
The two of them opened the door and left. The room was filled with the smell of blood.
Lin Mengya closed the door and sneered.
She could already imagine how furious Zheng Luxi would be when he heard the news.
The two of them didn't send anyone to watch over the guards in the inn. In fact, as long as there was a trace of hesitation in their hearts, they would soon discover that they could actually leave.
But Lin Mengya knew that those people would kill to the end.
Because from the moment the first person waved the butcher's knife, all their paths of retreat had been cut off.
If Zheng Luxi were to find out that they were killing each other because of his threat just a moment ago, then these people's fates would probably not be any better.
Therefore, she didn't need to worry about anyone chasing after her.
When they left the inn, there was someone outside to welcome them.
"Master, Miss, the place is ready."
Long Tianyu nodded, carried her in his arms, and followed his secret guard to the hiding place they had prepared before.
This was their true foothold during this period of time.
It was a courtyard with two entrances. Although it did not look big, it was neatly kept.
Long Tianyu did not want her to go any further. He ran all the way to the bedroom and put her on the bed.
"You sleep first, I'll deal with something else."
She nodded, took off her coat, and turned to get under the quilt.
Long Tianyu looked at her sleepy face, carefully tucked her in, and put down the curtain until the whole bed was covered tightly. Then he got up and went to the courtyard.
"Master."
The secret guard who led them here did not leave. When he saw Long Tianyu, he immediately greeted him respectfully.
Long Tianyu nodded slightly, looking at the direction of the bedroom with a little worry. His words were much shorter.
"Have you found out?"
"I have found out that the thieves in the Immortal City may be hiding in the fief of the Zheng Family."
"What about the evidence?"
"There is no conclusive evidence for the time being, but our people have heard that about a few months ago, the Zheng Family ordered a batch of carriages. The style of these carriages is a little strange. Except for the door, there are no windows. But we did not find the traces of these carriages in Shang Yang City. "
Long Tianyu's face became colder and colder as his men reported.
The people in the Immortal City could appear so suddenly and retreat without any scruples. Obviously, there was someone secretly helping them.
And this person could not only provide them with a temporary hiding place, but also a way to transport these people out of the Immortal City under the nose of the Gong Family.
The Zheng Family was indeed the most suspicious, not only because the Zheng Family had such ability, but also because the official road in the fief of the Zheng Family was the biggest transportation channel on the land to the fief of the Gong Family.
If it was really done by the Zheng Family, it could explain why they almost turned the fief of the Gong Family upside down, but still could not find these people.
The people in the Immortal City were really cunning.
"Go and find out."
"Yes, what about Zheng Luxi?"
That person actually wanted to attack them.
Long Tianyu did not have the intention to take this clown seriously, and he could not do anything to this person for the time being.
"Keep an eye on him, don't act rashly and alert the enemy."
"I understand."
The secret guard who got the order left, and Long Tianyu quietly walked back to the inner room.
Ya 'er's long and soft breathing came from the bed curtain.
He could not help but relax his eyebrows, took off his coat, and went to bed.
As soon as he lay down, Ya 'er turned over and rolled into his arms.
Holding the love of his life, Long Tianyu only felt a sweet feeling filling his heart.
He did not ask for much, just for one person.
The two of them slept in each other's arms. At this moment, all the conspiracies, overt plots, power, and status could not compare to a strand of hair of the person in his arms.
Although Lin Mengya did not participate in Long Tianyu's matter, she knew clearly why this person accompanied her this time.
The person did not hide it from her. After she got up, he immediately told her everything about the possibility that the Immortal City might be hidden in the fief of the Zheng family.
There were also a few servants arranged in the courtyard, and they were all carefully selected. Even if it was two people who had never appeared before, it did not cause the servants to be surprised.
Obviously, someone had warned them.
"Since it is related to the Zheng family, it must be someone with real power in the Zheng family. If it is the master of the Zheng family, it will be fine. As long as I push Zheng Rongrong to the position of master, I have full confidence that the people in the Immortal City will not dare to hide here. But if it is someone else, I am afraid it will be more troublesome. "
The reason why Lin Mengya paid attention to the official road of the Zheng family was that a large part of the caravans, goods, and the colleges would pass through here.
If this official road was blocked, the Gong family was bound to be affected.
Although they could also open up a new road, it would take time and energy.
Therefore, no matter what, she had to help Zheng Rongrong to win the position of master. Or perhaps, it was someone else who could cooperate with her.
"Well, I have already sent someone to investigate. Are you going to see Zheng Rongrong today?"
"I have to see her, but I have to think of a way to meet her secretly."
She raised the corner of her mouth and smiled more slyly than a fox.
She was afraid that Zheng Luxi had already received the news by now.
She really wanted to see how flustered and exasperated that guy looked.
Early in the morning, the Zheng family was bustling.
But this time, it was not because of Zheng Rongrong.
In the early morning, a guard of the Zheng family suddenly ran back to report that their brothers had been killed.
As for this person, his injuries were too severe and he didn't make it.
When Zheng Luxi rushed to the inn, he only saw blood and corpses everywhere.
In addition to the guards of the Zheng family, the waiter who was on duty at the inn was also dead.
The shopkeeper's family, on the other hand, had escaped the calamity because they had left the city to visit their relatives last night.
Others did not know how these guards died, but Zheng Luxi was very clear about it.
They must have been killed by that shameless couple. That's right, he would fight them to the death!
And the first thing Zheng Luxi did when he returned to the Zheng family was to rush to Zheng Rongrong's courtyard and question her about the whereabouts of that couple.
Naturally, Zheng Rongrong denied it. She insisted that they were just strangers who met by chance and did not know each other at all.
In his anger, Zheng Luxi actually hit Zheng Rongrong.
This was terrible. Miss Zheng, who was delicate and frail, immediately suffered from a heart attack. If it were not for the maidservant who brought a life-saving pill in time, Miss Zheng might have passed away.
When the master of the Zheng family learned about this, he also flew into a rare rage.
That was his only daughter. The reason why he tolerated everything was that he wanted Zheng Luxi to treat Zheng Rongrong well after he inherited the position of master.
But if Zheng Luxi really beat his daughter to death, no matter how much he cared about the family, he would not let it go.
For a time, the whole Zheng family was in an uproar. Even the common people of Shang Yang City were talking about this matter.
As one of the people involved, Zheng Rongrong was in a coma for several days. In Shang Yang City, all the famous doctors were at a loss.
Zheng Congen was so anxious that he put up notices in the whole Zheng family's fief, saying that if anyone could cure his daughter, he would immediately give ten thousand taels of gold.
With such a great reward, there would naturally be brave warriors.
A few days later, a divine doctor came to Zheng Rongrong's door and asked to cure her.
