After saying that, Ye Jingru threw off Ye Jinsu, turned around and walked towards Little Red.
It went without saying what she wanted to do.
Ye Jinsu's eyes turned cold. Her hands, which were originally behind her back, suddenly pulled out a short knife from her sleeve. As the tip of her blade was unsheathed, Ye Jinsu quickly broke free of the shackles and jumped up from the ground. The short blade in her hand stabbed into Ye Jingru's hand without any hesitation.
Everything happened in an instant. Ye Jingru's men didn't even have the time to catch her.
A blood-curdling scream burst out from Ye Jingru's throat.
The short blade in Ye Jinsu's hand stabbed into Ye JinRu's arm. With a solid stab, a third of the blade went in. It was much more ruthless than Ye Jingru's small red knife.
The moment he pulled out the dagger, a stream of blood spurted out onto the ground.
Ye Jingru almost fainted.
In the next moment, Ye Jinsu's hand was around Ye JinRu's neck.
Fresh blood splattered on Ye Jinru's face. She opened her eyes and felt as if countless drops of blood had landed on her face before finally falling down. The smell of rust rushed into her nose, causing her to scream out once again.
Her sharp voice was so loud that it nearly deafened Ye JinRu.
Ye Jinxiu frowned and stuck the short knife in her hand into her mouth.
"Scream again, you will experience a life worse than death before you die." Ye Jinsu's ice-cold voice rang in Ye Jingru's ears. The words were not heavy, but the words she spat out sounded exceptionally clear.
Each word was like a sharp arrow that could take her life at any moment.
Ye Jingru opened her mouth and a pool of blood flowed out. With tears that had somehow fallen at an unknown time, they fell together onto the already filthy snow.
Ye Jinxiu drew her blade and turned to look at the people around her. "I will kill anyone who dares to come near me!"
No one dared to move.
Everyone knew that Ye Jinru was one of the Qi King's men. Now that the Qi King wasn't here, they didn't dare to allow anything to happen to Ye JinRu.
He could only go and report.
Ye Jingru landed in Ye Jinsu's hands with tears of fear flowing out of her eyes. She did not dare move, but she could not help but tremble violently. She cried as she looked at Ye Jinsu's blade, "I …" "I was wrong …"
"Elder sister …" "Big sister, I was wrong. Please let me go, I won't dare …"
Ye Jinsu laughed coldly as she pressed the tip of the blade against the corner of her mouth, which was still bleeding. She said, "Do you still want that mouth of yours?"
Ye Jingru did not dare to say another word.
She could only look at the snowy sky in despair, hoping that the Qi King would save her.
Time passed second by second. Ye Jinsu looked at the snow falling harder and harder, and her face was unreadable.
It wasn't just Ye Jinru who was waiting. Ye Jinsu was also waiting.
She was waiting for Ning Yunxiao to come over.
According to their agreement, Ning Yunxiao should be coming over by this time.
And now …
From afar, the sound of horses galloping could be heard again. A ray of hope flashed in Ye JinRu's eyes as she looked expectantly at the entrance.
It was the Qi King.
The Qi King had rushed over from the outside, but he didn't expect to see such a scene. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Ye Jingru in shock before looking at the people around him.
There were so many people here, but they were still unable to stop Ye Jinsu?
Trash!
They were all trash!
Qi Wang's good-natured face was shattered as his expression became gloomy and unsightly. The look in his eyes as he turned around to look at Ye Jingru had even caused her to be afraid from the start.
Ye Jinsu looked at him and suddenly had a bad feeling. She felt that Ye JinRu might not be able to help.
She held onto Ye JinRu tightly, the knife in her hand was pointing at her neck as she threatened, "Let go of Little Red, I'll let her go."
The Qi King looked at Ye Jinsu, but didn't say anything. He only took a step forward. A trace of unease flashed in Ye Jinsu's eyes as she looked around vigilantly.
Ye Jingru also noticed that something was amiss, but she did not care about Ye Jinsu's threat and directly spoke, "Your Highness, Qi King, please save me! "Save me!"
"I plead for Your Highness to save me …"
However, in the next second, the Qi King only reached his hand out and pulled out his sword. He lifted the tip of his sword and pointed it at Ye Jinsu, gritting his teeth as he said, "Don't bother with her. Capture Ye Jinsu at all costs!"
Ye Jingru's eyes opened wide as a trace of despair emerged in them. She crazily shouted, "No! His Majesty the Qi King! Your Highness, save me! "
"Save me! "Save me!"
Unfortunately, no one here listened to her.
Ye Jinsu had already reacted and threw Ye JinRu in the direction of the wind and quickly retreated. Jing Yun, who had been hiding in the dark all this time, appeared as well. He stood in front of Ye Jinsu and finished off a few of his men.
Their escape route was cut off and they had no way to return to the main hall.
Ye Jinsu looked at the people around her who were already fighting. She used her feet to lift up the flexible sword and took care of a few of them.
Ye Jingru, who was standing next to him, had already been thrown onto the ground by Shuo Feng. The battle had already started. Ye Jingru sat in the middle of the chaos with fear and hesitation in her eyes.
She could only look in the direction of the Qi King and scream, "Save me!"
But no one gave her a response.
Ye Jinxiu only gave her a cursory glance, not giving her any time to think about it. This time, she only brought 500 people with her. They were all lying in ambush in the Cloud Light Temple. Now that the battle had started, these five hundred people were definitely not enough.
Why hadn't Ning Yunyun come yet …
Ye Jinxiu kept retreating as she fought, hiding behind the clouds to catch her breath. There were so many people here, no matter how strong Ye Jinsu was, it was impossible for her to defeat them.
"Did something happen to Ning Wang?" Ye Jinsu asked while gasping for air.
Jing Yun's complexion didn't look any better than Ye Jinsu's. While taking care of Ye Jinsu, he took care of the people who were constantly attacking him, and even injured himself.
No matter how powerful they were, they couldn't stand up to the number of people in the Qi King.
Ye Jinsu looked at the direction of the palace and felt her heart beating rapidly. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't calm down.
The snow was falling harder.
The drifting snowflakes became bigger and bigger, falling down like wool. Soon, a layer of snow accumulated on the palace path.
Meng Lan ran down the long path, gasping for breath as she ran. Meng Lan was the only person on the silent and dark palace path. The guards had long since left, and the path that should have been used by the palace guards was also empty.
Meng Lan's footsteps echoed in the surroundings. She was flustered and panicked. Her entire face had turned pale. After running from the Ye Residence to the palace, she felt stuffy all the way to her chest. However, she didn't dare to stop at all.
Faster... Faster...
This was the only thought in Meng Lan's mind, and it drove her crazy.
He had to be a bit faster, or xiaojie and Xiao Hong would be in danger.
The palace had long since been thrown into chaos. There were palace maids and eunuchs who had grabbed their bundles and fled in all directions, hurrying to leave the palace. Meng Lan grabbed a random person. She didn't care about his age and pressed, "Which direction is Chong Yang Palace located in?"
The young palace maid was frightened by Meng Lan's ferocious gaze and pointed to the side.
Meng Lan abruptly let go of her, lifted her skirt, and ran over. Meng Lan ran until she could hear the sound of soldiers before she suddenly stopped. Her eyes widened as she crouched against the wall, breathing heavily.
She heard the clashing of swords, the clashing of armor, the cries of pain.
The air was filled with the thick smell of blood, causing Meng Lan's stomach to flip upside down.
Both her legs gave way and she propped herself up against the wall, bracing herself to take a look inside.
