C130 Next time you still have the guts to make a ruckus with me?

Liu Ruo Qing frowned, her heart starting to feel uneasy.

Am I really going to die at their hands tonight?

"Alright, I've said enough nonsense. If you want to use this time to wait for reinforcements, save it."

The leader of the martial artists looked at Liu Ruo Qing, undisguised contempt in his eyes.

Liu Ruo Qing also understood in her heart that the current situation was extremely disadvantageous for him. Forcefully attacking or defending would not be the best decision, so she could only use her strength to escape.

The smile was still on her face, making it impossible for them to sense any signs of panic. In reality, she was already planning on finding a suitable escape route.

When those people were overjoyed at their victory, she suddenly flew over the tall building in the opposite direction, intending to leave.

However, these people from the martial arts world weren't easy to deal with. They quickly reacted and chased after them.

As the wounds on Liu Ruo Qing's left shoulder had lowered her fighting strength and the martial arts of the Jianghu people were not weak, they kept pressing on her with their sharp blades in their hands. They did not chat with her like in the beginning, but looked at their attacks, clearly wanting to put her to death.

She was forced to the point where she had no way out. She could only barely defend herself. Her waist was also severely cut, causing her to frown from the pain.

Despite her efforts to avoid their attack, she was unable to escape successfully.

In the end, Shen Qin still did not put the lotus lamp into the river. She blew out the fire in the lamp and carefully stuffed it into her arms.

On the way back to Shen Mansion, the sounds of fighting on the street caught her attention.

A trace of doubt flashed past her eyes as she moved forward. She saw more than ten men dressed as martial artists surrounding a woman, forcing her to retreat step by step.

When she saw the face of the trapped person, she was shocked, "Crown Princess Jing?!"

She saw that Liu Ruo Qing's waist was dripping with blood, and was probably too injured to defend herself.

Seeing that the other blade was about to cut towards Liu Ruo Qing's chest, she exclaimed and took out a silver ingot from her bosom and threw it towards the blade.

Liu Ruo Qing's waist was in great pain, a light green figure flashed in front of her, blocking their attacks. At the same time, it allowed her to take a breather.

She furrowed her brows and leaned against the wall with much difficulty. Only then did she see clearly who the killer was.

"Shen Qin?!"

She couldn't help but be shocked, she never thought that the seemingly weak and weak young miss of the Shen family would actually know martial arts.

However, it was obvious that his martial arts skills were a bit weaker. He could deal with it for the time being, but it shouldn't be for long.

"Shen Qin, don't worry about me, go back quickly. Their target is me."

It took a lot of effort before she managed to shout out those words.

Shen Qin's martial arts skills were much weaker than hers, she could only barely deal with the group of elite martial artists, she had no energy to talk to her anymore.

"Damn it, I can't let something happen to Shen Qin because of me."

She was not that familiar with Shen Qin, if he let her be injured or lose her life because of him, she would be guilty.

These people from the martial arts world were obviously desperate criminals. To them, there was no difference between killing her and killing two people.

Gritting her teeth, she tore off a piece of cloth from her clothes and forcefully tied up the wound at her waist before entering the battle again.

Shen Qin took a palm, it was not considered serious, but it was still extremely painful, and she was unable to retaliate in time. She stepped forward and forcefully pulled her to the side, and used his bare hands to catch the blade that was cutting towards them.

A deep wound had been carved into her palm, and blood dripped down from the gaps of her fingers.

"Princess!"

Liu Ruo Qing cried out in alarm. She pushed those people away and said to Shen Qin: "Hurry up and go back. Their target is me."

Using his eyes to look at Shen Qin, Shen Qin quickly understood, but she was still worried about Liu Ruo Qing, "But …"

"Hurry up and leave."

She reckoned that she could not hold on much longer, and would not be able to implicate Shen Qin.

They continued to attack nonstop. Liu Ruo Qing never thought that she would actually die on such a joyous day.

At this critical moment, the locust tree by the side of the road suddenly swayed violently. Soon after, the assassins in front of them all kneeled down on the ground, letting out miserable shrieks.

Liu Ruo Qing was startled, she looked up and under the huge locust tree, Yan Yuan walked towards her against the moonlight.

It was as if a halo of light surrounded his body, as if he was an irresistible god that descended from the sky, causing everyone to involuntarily prostrate themselves in front of him.

In his hand, the tree branches were like sharp blades, slicing through the ligaments at the knees of those people and cutting them in a flash.

It was just like last time when he used a few leaves of a leaf of an orchid to easily take the lives of those assassins, making them never have the chance to stand up again.

Yan Yuan walked in front of her, and when he saw the blood-red droplets that dripped from her palms and waist, he frowned slightly.

As he bent down to help her up, he said in a calm voice, "You still dare to be angry with me next time?"

His tone, did not reveal much of his emotions, but just these few words alone made the grievances and fear that Liu Ruo Qing originally felt surge up from the bottom of his heart at the same time.

There were faint tears within his eyes, reflecting the light of the bright moon. It was as if they were sparkling and translucent pearls that dripped down.

She did not look at Yan Yuan, and only pulled her hand out of Yan Yuan's in silence, then turned and walked towards Shen Qin's side with difficulty.

Shen Qin had just received a slap to the face, causing him to be unable to lift up her shoulder due to the pain.

"How are you?"

"I'm fine."

Shen Qin clenched her teeth as she looked at Liu Ruo Qing and shook her head, "Royal Concubine, it's too dangerous outside. You can go back with the Prince first, I can go back by myself."

"No, I'll send you back to the Shen Mansion first."

Liu Ruo Qing shook her head and resolutely refused.

Shen Qin was only injured because of her, if she was allowed to stay on the streets, what would happen if she met her with these people's friends?

Although they were not targeting Shen Qin, they were extremely angry at Shen Qin.

Yan Yuan walked to her side with a frown, his voice was still cold, "Your wound is still bleeding, why are you sending me back?"

He extended his hand to help Liu Ruo Qing, but she dodged his hand by a step.

Although he was not too happy that Liu Ruo Qing had decided to go against him at this time, it was just that the injuries on her body still made him unable to bear it.

At the same time, Yan Yuan also knew clearly in his heart that this woman had a very stubborn temper. This Miss Shen was injured because of her, she would definitely not let her go back to the Shen Mansion alone.

In the end, he could only helplessly sigh and say, "Then let's first find a doctor to check on your injuries before sending Miss Shen back."
