"Plop!"
Song Bafu weakly knelt on the ground. Spirit tools and 100,000 Jinyin coins were already in the past. At this moment, there was nothing more important than surviving. In his blurred vision, he saw that his twin brother had already fallen to the ground with a frightening bloody hole in his chest.
Song Rentu, dead!
Song Bafu could only run for his life. He waved his arms and crawled on the grass, even abandoning the longbow he carried with him. However, his true qi and strength were constantly flowing away in the Clear Wind Drunk, and he didn't even have the strength to crawl and escape.
… …
"Ah …"
Lin Muyu took a deep breath and sat on the ground. In order to defend against the two experts' attacks, he had almost instantly consumed more than half of his true qi. His martial spirit was seriously injured, so his internal organs were also affected, and his aura was unstable.
Chu Yao stood up and probed Song Rentu's aura, saying: "He's dead, what about the other one?"
Lin Muyu sat there quietly and said: "We have already killed many people, but … but if we let Song Bafu escape, he will definitely find an opportunity to take revenge on us. Big sister Chu Yao, you do as you see fit. I am very tired now, and my whole body can't lift an ounce of strength."
"En."
The expression in Chu Yao's eyes became more firm and decisive. She stood up and grabbed the spear that was stained with Lin Muyu's blood. She jumped up and directly pierced the back of Song Bafu, who was crawling on the ground. Blood suddenly spurted out, and Song Bafu's body trembled violently under the pain. His limbs danced frantically, but Chu Yao gritted her teeth and quickly used her strength to insert half of the iron spear into the ground, nailing Song Bafu to the ground and letting him wait for death.
She slowly turned around, her short hair gently swaying in the night wind. Her face no longer had the innocence and immaturity of a little girl, but instead had a bit more steadiness and determination.
Lin Muyu looked up at her speechlessly, but her heart felt like it was being stabbed by a knife. What kind of world made Chu Yao like this? If it wasn't for these people endlessly chasing after them for Jinyin coins, perhaps Chu Yao would not be like this now. Of course, the death of Chu Feng's grandfather was also a big blow to Chu Yao.
Looking at the soup pot on the side, Chu Yao turned to him and smiled warmly: "Yu, fortunately, our dinner was not affected by the battle. Let's eat first. You're injured, how about we leave tomorrow?"
Lin Muyu nodded: "En, whatever sister says!"
"Okay!"
After eating and warming up, Lin Muyu leaned against the stone wall and circulated his qi to heal his injuries. Then, he refined some medicine to treat his internal injuries. His injuries were too serious, so he needed to nurse his body to the best of his ability. Otherwise, it would be the end of him if he was left with internal injuries or disabilities. To a martial artist, what was more valuable than a healthy body?
He did not cultivate much that night. The main thing he did was to recover from his injuries.
Lin Muyu leaned against the stone wall, his mind replaying the many experiences he had experienced in the past few days. After coming to this world, it seemed that killing and being hunted had become a normal thing. He was deeply opposed to killing, but now that there were two corpses lying not far from him, he was actually used to it.
Then, he thought of Tang Xiaoxi. What would this beautiful and kind little princess be doing? If she knew that he had become a serious criminal of the empire, how would she react?
Suddenly, Tang Xiaoxi's sleeping face under the moonlight appeared in his mind. It was so beautiful and tranquil. She was probably the most beautiful girl he had ever seen in his life.
There was a faint burning pain from his wounds. He stopped thinking about it and went to sleep. The vital energy in his body was almost depleted in the battle, so he had to rest and recover as soon as possible. Who knew how many more dangers were waiting for him on the road ahead?
In the blink of an eye, it was already dawn. The faint howls of wolves could be heard in the distance in the forest.
Suddenly, Lin Muyu woke up from his sleep. There was a faint pain in his heart, but he did not know what had happened. He could only grit his teeth and continue to force himself to sleep, but he could not fall asleep no matter what.
…
At the same time, deep in the Dragon Seeking Forest.
Piles of bonfires were burning the last of their energy in a small valley. Almost everyone was asleep, except for seven or eight guards who were leaning against a tree with their eyes closed. They had been in the Dragon Seeking Forest for several days, but there had been no news of Lin Muyu. In fact, everyone wanted to go back to the capital to enjoy life, but the willful little princess was unwilling.
The fire danced and flickered on the girl's beautiful face.
Tang Xiaoxi was lying in a blanket, which wrapped her delicate body. Her body was slightly shivering. The late night of autumn was very cold, and it was obvious that a blanket was not enough to keep out the cold.
She opened her eyes slowly. Her dark eyes were as deep and beautiful as gemstones. She looked at the stars in the sky and suddenly felt very cold. Her heart felt as if it was stabbed by a knife. She sobbed silently, and tears swirled in her eyes. She called out softly, "Mu … Where are you? Don't die, you must wait for me … "
…
"Sou sou!"
Two soft sounds came from the night sky, followed by two "putong putong" sounds. Two guards who were standing guard slowly fell down. There was a black arrow pierced through their hearts. Moreover, it was a steel arrow. A king level expert who was killed at close range!
"Assassin!"
Someone shouted. That voice stopped abruptly in the cold night, as if someone's throat had been cut.
A cold light flashed in the night. Tang Xiaoxi jumped up in alarm. The Fire Fox Martial Soul came out of her body, and at the same time, she grabbed the long sword and sheath beside the rock to block. "Keng" The sound of metal clashing could be heard. The other party used a long sword, and it was a masked man. Only a pair of emotionless eyes could be seen. When his attack missed, he immediately lowered his body and swept his leg.
Tang Xiaoxi gritted her teeth and said angrily, "Who are you people? How dare you sneak attack people from the Seven Seas City's Duke's Mansion?"
At the same time, she raised her slender snow white leg. Flames quickly lingered around it, and with a "kacha" sound, she stepped down, directly breaking the assassin's leg sweep. Moreover, with her extraordinary strength, she broke his calf. The assassin did not say a word and turned around to slash again. However, Tang Xiaoxi's speed was even faster. With a flick of her wrist, the scabbard left her hand, and a smear of blood flew out. The assassin's throat had already been slit.
Waves of miserable screams came from the surroundings. More than ten guards quickly approached and shouted, "Protect the princess! Protect the princess! "
But the arrows flew out, and people fell one after another. In the blink of an eye, nearly a hundred people from the guard camp had died. However, those arrows seemed to have grown eyes, and did not shoot at Tang Xiaoxi. It was as if they were deliberately avoiding her.
These people wanted to capture her alive. Tang Xiaoxi's heart was as clear as a mirror. She suddenly opened her arms, and the light of the fire fox rose from the sky, forming a flame impact that swept across the area. Suddenly, four assassins fell to the ground and died, howling.
"Let's rush out!"
Tang Xiaoxi was the strongest among this group of guards, so she took the lead to rush out with the others.
…
"Don't let them escape. Capture the princess of Seven Seas City alive!"
A cold voice came from the mountain ridge on the right, which made Tang Xiaoxi's heart cold.
Behind her, a guard with a heavy shield kept blocking the arrows. He raised his True Qi and growled, "Who are you people? Why did you sneak attack us?"
In the crowd, a masked man laughed loudly, "People who are about to die don't need to know so much!"
However, Tang Xiaoxi said coldly, "You are from the House of Chivalry, right?"
"Oh, as expected of the second most beautiful woman in Lanyan City, Tang Xiaoxi. You are so smart. This trip was not in vain!" In the darkness, an unusually sharp voice laughed. "Capture Tang Xiaoxi alive, and you will be rewarded with 500,000 Jin Yin coins. As for those insignificant people, send them on their way. They are no longer of any value!"
At least a few hundred people dressed in black with swords in their hands rushed over from all directions.
Tang Xiaoxi's heart was cold. She looked at the group of guards apologetically and said with a trembling voice, "I'm sorry. I caused you to lose your lives here. It's all my fault. I shouldn't have acted on my own. I'm sorry …"
One of the guards had a resolute look in his eyes as he said, "Princess Xi, this isn't your fault. It's just that the House of Chivalry actually dared to target you. They're truly audacious. As long as we kill our way out, the Grand Duke will definitely mobilize his army and flatten every House of Chivalry on this mainland! These bastards are committing treason! We … "
Before he could finish speaking, his throat was suddenly pierced by a sharp arrow. He could no longer speak and fell straight to the ground.
The strongest among the group of guards was only at the First Heaven of the Earth Realm. There was no way they could defend against so many people from the House of Chivalry.
"Princess, we will cover your retreat. Your Fire Fox has the ability to increase speed. Moreover, we are in the forest. They definitely won't be able to catch up to you. Let's go!" A guard rushed over with his heavy shield. He hid his head under the shield, but his legs were continuously hit by arrows. He staggered and almost fell to the ground again and again, but he still maintained his forward momentum.
The other dozen guards also rushed over. They knew that they would die, but there was no other way.
…
Tang Xiaoxi's eyes were red. Her heart was filled with regret and hatred. The Fire Fox Martial Spirit chirped softly on her shoulder as if it was comforting its little master.
In the next moment, Tang Xiaoxi launched another Flame Strike. She raised her sword and leaped up. The Fire Fox roared wildly. Flames appeared under her feet. Although her speed was not as fast as Falling Stars Steps, it was enough to shake off the House of Chivalry's wanderers.
Screams came from behind her. The guards fell to the ground and died.
Tang Xiaoxi felt as if thousands of arrows had pierced her heart. Tears fell in the night wind. She rushed in the direction of Lanyan City without looking back. She knew that she could no longer save Lin Muyu. She did not even know if she could make it back alive.
The thorns tore through her luxurious clothes and pierced her skin. However, Tang Xiaoxi did not seem to feel any pain. She controlled the Fire Fox Martial Spirit and rushed into the distance of the Dragon Seeking Forest.
Behind her, the sounds of people chasing after her did not stop. After the people from the House of Chivalry discovered the Fire Fox's ability to increase speed, they regretted it. They even shot arrows at her again and again.
"Pfft!"
She suddenly felt a burning sensation on her back. Tang Xiaoxi staggered and almost fell to the ground. Her back began to hurt.
She had been hit by an arrow!
