Feng Ningyan could no longer afford to guess why the county magistrate had appeared here. She only wanted to take Li Pei and leave immediately to treat his injuries.

However, the constables had already surrounded her. One sharp weapon after another was pointed at her.

"Halt!" The leader shouted, "You've killed so many people, where are you going to escape to?!"

Feng Ning Yan's eyebrows twitched. Not willing to waste any more time, she immediately raised her voice and said, "I am not the murderer! "I'm Young Master Ning Nan …"

Before she could reveal her identity, the man interrupted her and looked at the bodies on the ground.

"I don't care who you are! Life is in the hands of the heavens. Under the current County Governor Ning Nan's rule, even royalty would have to submit to the same laws in order to kill people! "

When Feng Ning Yan heard this, she was both angry and anxious.

She was the only one left alive in the entire Green Plum Guild, but did that mean she was the killer? These people didn't have any evidence, so they started out wrongly accusing her. They were simply reckless and unscrupulous!

Feng Ning Yan listened to Li Pei's tiny breathing and knew that if he was delayed by even a little, he would be closer to the gates of hell.

Yue Qing's body had even been burnt to a crisp. If he let Li Pei lose his life again, even if Feng Wei could forgive her, she wouldn't be able to forgive herself.

"You idiots, get out of my way!" Feng Ning Yan's tone was ice-cold, her eyes filled with murderous intent. With her back facing Li Pei, she took a step forward.

Her body exuded a death god's killing intent, which actually made the constables even more certain that she was the murderer.

Although the leader was a little scared, he did not cower. "Unless you step over our corpses, don't even think about leaving!"

"Damn it!"

The redness in Feng Ning Yan's eyes intensified. She gritted her teeth and grabbed the hilt of her sword.

Just as she was about to break through, another voice came from outside, "Lord Qi has arrived!"

Hearing this name, Feng Ningyan's heart fiercely jumped. Only now did she realize that she had fallen into a trap.

From the time she entered the manor to the time she left it, it had only been a very short period of time. Why did the yamen runners from Ningnan County arrive so quickly? Even the county governor, Qi Cang, had come!

The county governor of Ningnan, Qi Cang, was promoted by Feng Wei. The two of them had been friends for many years, and they governed the Southern Ning County together.

Although this person was a scholar, he was upright and selfless. He did not understand the ways of the world, and even his own father did not give him face when he came.

This person was very strict in handling the case. He would never let any of the suspects leave. He would have to pester them for a long time.

Thinking of this, Feng Ningyan became even more anxious.

Qi Cang listened to the bailiff's report as he walked. At the same time, his gaze landed on the bailiff's encirclement. With just a glance, he shouted in surprise, "Young Marshal Feng?"

With that said, the county governor's yamen runners were stunned.

The yamen runners in the front row, who had been arguing with Feng Ningyan for a long time, took a closer look under the illumination of the lantern light. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale.

Although the face of Feng Ning Yan in front of him was covered in ashes, with her delicate features, heroic eyebrows, and sharp eyes, if she wasn't the Southern Ning Army's Vice Commander, then who else could she be?

How could the Southern Ning Army's Young Marshal be the cold-blooded killer of the Green Plum Guild? But with dozens of corpses in front of him, how could he explain it?

Feng Ningyan also did not expect her face to be so filthy, to think that Qi Cang could recognize her in one glance.

"That's right, it's this young general. Lord Qi, the brother behind me is the Crimson Flame Battalion Commander, Li Pei. He was severely injured by the fire, I must take him to find a doctor as soon as possible, and ask your men to get out of the way. "

With a cold expression, Qi Cang walked to the front of the bailiff. On his square face, the word "No way" seemed to be written.

"Young Marshal Feng, everyone from the Green Plum Guild is dead. There are still people from your Crimson Flame Battalion here. Before we investigate everything, please forgive this official for not letting you go. Young Marshal, please release that person and follow us back to the government compound."

Feng Ning Yan's heart was burning with anxiety. She gritted her teeth and endured her temper as she said, "I will naturally cooperate with Senior Qi's investigation, but I must first send field officer Li to a doctor."

"This Young Marshal Feng need not worry." "As long as you hand over the certificate to me, there will be someone who will be in charge of the treatment."

Feng Ningyan flatly refused. "He is severely injured, ordinary doctors simply cannot save him, they can only delay him and harm him! Qi Cang, if you continue to argue and stop me, don't blame me for being rude! "

However, Qi Can remained unmoved, and his expression was tense: "He may be the last witness to the murderer! I will not let him die, and I will not let him leave! "

Feng Ningyan knew very well that Qi Cang would not allow him to pass, so she could only use force.

She drew the whip from her belt and swung it out like a bolt of lightning.

After the horsewhip accurately wrapped itself around the long spear in the bailiff's hand, she abruptly retracted it, tightly gripped it in her hand and pointed it at Qi Cang from afar. She stepped forward, "Move!"

"Young Marshal Feng!" Qi Cang didn't think that Feng Ningyan would actually resist arrest, and chided, "Rejecting arrest is a grave crime!"

Feng Ningyan, however, couldn't care so much anymore. Other than breaking out of this encirclement, she had no other choice!

The long spear danced in the air until dust flew everywhere and the sky darkened. Before those yamen runners could get close to her, they were all sent flying and fell towards the silkworm house.

In the blink of an eye, Feng Ning Yan had already approached the manor gate.

The yamen runners protected County Governor Qi while attacking Feng Ning Yan at the same time. Under her sharp offensive, they immediately collapsed, revealing a small gap in their encirclement.

Feng Ning Yan's heart was elated as she hurriedly attacked the gap.

At this moment, a sharp sound of wind breaking came from behind him. A bailiff saw the opportunity and chopped down with his saber.

However, if this cut was real, it would be Li Pei, who was carried on Feng Ningyan's back, who would be the one who would be injured.

Feng Ningyan's expression changed. She hurriedly turned around and blocked with her spear, but in the end, it was too late.

"Woosh ~ ~ ~"

The sharp blade sliced across her arm and the cloth immediately split. The bracelet was also broken into several pieces. A deep bloody wound appeared on her arm. Blood stained her clothes and flowed down her finger.

Seeing this, Qi Cang was startled.

He wasn't willing to break the law for selfish ends, but if he heavily injured Feng Ning Yan in order to capture her, what if she was really innocent, how would he explain himself to Feng Wei in the future?

Thinking up to here, Qi Cang made a hand gesture, then ordered, "Don't hurt Young Master Feng!"

Because of a single command from Qi Cang, the yamen runners were restricted and did not dare to take the initiative to attack. They had no choice but to take turns to fight Feng Ning Yan.

Carrying Li Pei on his back, it was difficult for Feng Ning Yan to display her skills. In addition to her injuries, she was in an even more sorry state.

However, she still refused to abandon Li Pei. She bent over and coldly stared at the people in front of her. Sweat dripped down her face.

At this moment, she felt that her legs no longer had the strength to support her.

No... Can't Fall...

If she were to fall at this moment, Li Pei would be the one who would lose his life in the Green Plum Guild!

Feng Ning Yan clenched her teeth and held on. She raised her spear and was about to charge forward again.

At this moment, an earth-shattering dragon roar resounded from the sky!

A dazzling sword ray whistled through the air from outside the manor. It pierced through the tall manor gate and the people surrounding Feng Ning Yan, piercing into the bluestone next to her.
