Gradually, Su Jinruo realized that something was wrong with Shen Hancheng.
Even if the other side had too many people, the Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng was unable to hold on for a while, so it was understandable.
Available...
Although she had not exchanged blows with Shen Hancheng before, but today, based on the fact that she did not sense Shen Hancheng's presence behind her, it was sufficient to say that Seventh Prince Shen Hancheng's martial arts were above hers.
The cultivation of these people was not high, after a while, Shen Hancheng... There was no reason why he couldn't kill all of these men in black!
The blood-red colour spread across the entire mountainside, and the strong smell of blood lingered at the tip of his nose.
While thinking, a sword pierced towards Su Jinruo's left, it's imposing manner was oppressing, her hands were tightly grabbed by Shen Hancheng, and beside her, a black clothed man's sword was holding onto her hand, eyeing her fiercely, Su Jinruo was simply unable to dodge!
Shen Hancheng sensed something and pulled Su Jinruo's hand into his embrace. The longsword in his hand flew to Su Jinruo's left and solved the crisis that Su Jinruo was in.
Su Jinruo unconsciously raised his eyes, and suddenly noticed that Shen Hancheng's complexion was strange, and faintly paled.
Subconsciously, she called out, "Prince …"
Her voice was filled with concern. Shen Hancheng looked at her as his wrist quickly turned.
Unexpectedly, the black-clothed man who was originally attacking her from behind suddenly turned back and stabbed Shen Hancheng in the body.
Dark red blood instantly gushed out from his waist, Su Jinruo's eyes shook, he raised his leg and kicked the attacker away, while Shen Hancheng turned around, and fiercely stabbed the sword that the person gave him into his heart.
The two of them … One kick, one stab. Their coordination was flawless.
Most of the men in black had died, but only about a dozen of them remained.
They wouldn't give up their pursuit of Shen Hancheng just because their companions died.
The sunlight was getting stronger and stronger. When it fell on a person's body, they felt as if they were about to ignite.
Without saying a word and without hesitating, Shen Hancheng grabbed Su Jinruo and jumped out from the encirclement of the black clothed man.
The two of them landed in front of the black-clothed man. Su Jinruo glanced at Shen Hancheng, not understanding why he chose to go uphill, rather than going downhill …
But...
Shen Hancheng did not give Su Jinruo a chance to think, he held her hand tightly and pulled her along, running up the mountain.
Behind them, the black-clothed man pursued relentlessly.
Su Jinruo shot a glance at Shen Hancheng. The dark red liquid around his waist was still flowing.
In this moment, what Su Jinruo was thinking about was not Shen Hancheng's strangeness, but …
Should she make a move or not …?
They could even go up mountains because of their cliff. If Shen Hancheng led her up like this, and those black-clothed men continued to hold on to them, based on Shen Hancheng's current situation …
If she did not make a move, both of them would die!
After running for so long, he finally reached a point where he had no place to go.
Looking ahead, at the cliff, which was famous for its deep abyss, Su Jinruo pursed her lips. She retracted her gaze and looked at Shen Hancheng's pale face, and finally made her decision.
In the blink of an eye, the black clothed man arrived in front of them.
Perhaps it was due to being injured, but just now, Su Jinruo had discovered that something was wrong with Shen Hancheng. The current Shen Hancheng seemed to be rather weak, as though he could not even withstand a single blow.
With a slightly cold gaze, Shen Hancheng glanced at Su Jinruo. Seeing that she was still calm and composed despite facing a life and death situation, he couldn't help but curve the corner of his mouth.
He looked at the approaching black-clothed men, and just as he was about to say something, Su Jinruo suddenly broke free from his grasp.
Out of his control.
Shen Hancheng squinted, but saw that Su Jinruo was protecting him, and had the determination to go all out.
Su Jinruo did not look back at Shen Hancheng, and only said: "Your Highness, these scoundrels, they are truly presumptuous! They even dared to kill someone under the watch of the Emperor. This official will definitely kill them for the sake of the people and bring them to justice! And to avenge the Prince for one sword attack! "
He could hear the words clearly.
Looking at Su Jinruo's thin and weak body, for the first time in his life, Shen Hancheng experienced the feeling of being protected by an outsider.
This feeling...
That's right.
Very good.
The corner of his mouth curled up in delight. Because of the conversation between Su Jinruo and Su Jinruo, his unhappy mood instantly became clear.
He was on guard against the black clothed man, but Su Jinruo, who was not on guard against him, was still dragged into his embrace.
The color of Shen Hancheng's eyes unconsciously softened as his astonished face congealed.
"With This King here, when will you, a powerless person, be required to take revenge for This King?"
At the moment, Su Jinruo was questioning the credibility of what Shen Hancheng had just said.
Glancing at those approaching black-clothed men who were about to close the distance, Shen Hancheng hugged Su Jinruo's body and retreated backwards.
However, Shen Hancheng said to the black-clothed man, "Inform your master. When this king returns, he, will no longer have the qualifications to continue hiding in the shadows!"
After she finished speaking, before Su Jinruo could react, she hugged her body tightly and leaped down the cliff of the bottomless abyss.
The black-clothed men ran forward a few steps, and when they saw that Shen Hancheng and Su Jinruo had really jumped off the cliff, they stopped and walked back.
Leaping down the cliff, Su Jinruo experienced a life and death battle.
Unknowingly, the dagger in her sleeve had fallen into Shen Hancheng's hands.
The sharp dagger was pushed down by Shen Hancheng's strength and embedded itself into the cliff, slashing all the way down, and because of the resistance, Su Jinruo was able to breathe.
After a while, the dagger seemed to have found a resistance and stopped falling down the cliff.
Su Jinruo fell into Shen Hancheng's deep eyes. In the next moment, the dagger was unable to withstand the weight of the two and forcibly snapped.
Su Jinruo and Shen Hancheng lost their center of gravity, and uncontrollably began to fall from the sky.
Shen Hancheng held Su Jinruo's petite body tightly in her arms.
The way the two of them fell was for him. For Su Jinruo, he gathered all of the falling force onto his body.
Shen Hancheng whispered into her ear, as if comforting her, his voice gentle.
"Don't be afraid, This King is here."
Hearing Shen Hancheng's words, she could only see that under Shen Hancheng's protection, the calmness in her eyes was becoming increasingly complicated.
"Bang …"
Both of them fell into the deep pool at the same time.
A large whirlpool of blood appeared on the surface of the lake, then gradually returned to normal.
The lake water smacked against his nose. Su Jinruo drank a few mouthfuls of the lake water and tried his best to surface. The youth who had been protecting her, directly sank into the lake.
When he surfaced to the surface, Su Jinruo coughed a few times, took a deep breath, and submerged himself into the lake.
The gap between males and females, as well as the resistance of the buoyancy in the water, saved Shen Hancheng's life and he landed on the shore. Su Jinruo spent a lot of effort.
As Su Jinruo sat on the shore, he immediately probed Shen Hancheng's breathing. After seeing that Shen Hancheng was fine, he began to pant heavily.
She raised her eyes, looked at the unconscious Shen Hancheng, and rejoiced in her heart.
Although Shen Hancheng used his Qi to protect himself while he was in the air and used his dagger to reduce a lot of the falling force, the huge inertia still could not be underestimated …
As for her, due to Shen Hancheng's protection, other than being unable to resist the weightlessness, she was also a little dizzy.
After falling into the lake and touching the cold water, everything had become clear again.
Fortunately, they had fallen into the water. If they landed on the ground, she would have Shen Hancheng's protection and also have her own internal energy to protect herself. At most, she would only be able to receive internal injuries. He was definitely going to die!
Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Su Jinruo lowered his head and looked at his wet clothes.
The wide black robe was soaked by the lake water, and it stuck tightly to his body. At this moment, the exquisite curves of the woman were perfectly revealed.
The color in Su Jinruo's eyes changed, if Shen Hancheng was taught what she looked like now …
She didn't know how to end this.
The dozen or so black-clothed people all came down from their waists. They each took off their masks, tore off their black clothes, and revealed their original cloth clothing.
After completing this series of 'modification' steps, they were just about to leave and return to report.
At this moment, someone walked out from the tall tree trunk underneath the mountain and stood before them.
Upon seeing the blue and green figures blocking their path, the assassin's expression turned unfriendly. Without another word, he dashed forward to engage them in battle.
The two men who were standing in front of the assassin seemed to have the intention of letting him go, one attack and three steps back.
However, as long as he attacked, he would be killed.
After a while, only three assassins remained.
At this moment, the situation was not good. The leader of the assassins slightly shifted his cold eyes. After exchanging a glance with the two people beside him, he nodded to them.
The man in green was expressionless as he glanced at the leader of the assassins. He then turned to the man in blue beside him and said:
"These two are yours."
"Don't worry, just go on your way with your heart at ease!"
"…"
Amongst the three assassins, one of them wielded a sword as he retreated a few steps back. After which, he turned and used a light movement technique to flee.
Two people held long swords in their hands. Their eyes were fixed on the azure and azure figures in front of them. They were on guard as they pursued the person who had just escaped.
But...
How could they do as they wished?
The green-clothed man stood on the ground and turned his body. In the blink of an eye, he had passed over the heads of the two assassins and was chasing after them.
When they saw this, the remaining two assassins wanted to turn around and block the green-clothed man, and the blue-clothed man that they'd ignored leaped up, and a graceful figure descended before them.
The corner of his mouth curled up as he smiled and said, "Last time, I thought I was playing with a monkey, but now I've been played by a monkey. This time …"
The blue-clothed man's eyes turned cold. Holding the longsword in his hand, he charged towards the two of them.
The light robed man followed behind the assassin, neither too close nor too far.
The assassin rushed all the way back, never once turning his head to look at the situation behind him.
When he neared a courtyard, he looked behind him to see if he had followed the owner's tail. After seeing that there were no abnormalities, he entered the courtyard.
The light robed man hidden behind the wall leaned his body and glanced at the courtyard that the assassin had entered. His pupils suddenly contracted.
His pupils constricted as he estimated the time. After which, he also leaped into the courtyard.
In the yard.
The flowers were green and the fragrance of flowers was rich.
Inside the courtyard, there was the universe. On one side, there was a cluster of green bamboo swaying in the wind, while on the other side, there was a pond of lotus blossoms that were ready to bloom.
A ten-year old mahogany table was placed in the courtyard. On the table, all sorts of strange fruits and fruits were placed, along with various snacks.
There was a youth with a gentle smile on his lips. He sat at the table and gently picked up a piece of cake on the table with his slender jade-like fingers and handed it over.
