Chapter 8:

The beautiful woman escaped from the encirclement and ran away. The pedestrians on the street couldn’t avoid her.

"Wan’er…" The green-clothed swordsman, shocked to see the beautiful woman breaking free from the encirclement and running away, blurted out unconsciously.

"Jiang Lang, we are a married couple. How could I leave you behind?" The beautiful woman said while running.

"You only lost your purity, but if I get caught, I will be attacked by three vicious dogs…"

"……Ah ah ah!" The green-clothed swordsman was speechless, only roaring furiously and waving his sword in chaos.

"What are you saying? How disgusting." Childe Guo on horseback interrupted with a disgusted look on his face.

"I lack a servant to feed the fierce dogs in my mansion. What are you thinking? Even a pervert like me thinks you’re a pervert."

Beautiful woman: …..

Her fleeing figure suddenly stopped. Now she didn’t know whether it was better to keep running or stay and continue fighting.

"But you did give me a good idea," said the young lord, touching his chin and smiling.

"Quickly surrender, and I will try something when we get back," he said.

"Beast! I see through your intention, you are only amusing yourself with us!" The sword-wielding man in blue clothes said angrily and sorrowfully, his eyes filled with rage.

Throughout the whole ordeal, the City Lord’s son merely sat upright on his horse, continuously using words to mock and confuse them, causing them to be completely disoriented.

"Husband and wife are meant to fly together like birds in the same forest, but when great difficulty comes, they each fly their own way." Qiao Canxue murmured to herself with her eyes closed.

She came from a fallen noble family and had seen too much of the ups and downs in life, so she wasn’t surprised by the scene unfolding before her.

She had witnessed many examples of couples turning against each other in the face of life and death tests.

"My dear, don’t be angry, I am only helping you see the true colors of the person by your side," Childe Guo on horseback continued to smile.

Throughout the whole ordeal, he remained calm and composed, sitting on his horse.

"Chase her, don’t let that woman escape!"

With his command, some of the guards immediately went after her, wanting to capture the beautiful woman again. At the same time, the originally flawless encirclement suddenly had a gap.

And in that moment.

Qiao Canxue felt a breeze brush past her.

She instinctively reached out her hand, but there was nothing there. Qiao Mu’s previous position was already empty.

"Why is he getting involved? The couple are both skilled martial artists and they were easily toyed with. He’s a beginner in martial arts!" Qiao Canxue’s heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Then, she only heard a muffled sound.

In the split second when the encirclement had a gap, he suddenly crashed into two guards, leapt up, and knocked Childe Guo off his horse.

This sudden move caught the surrounding guards off guard. By the time they reacted, Qiao Mu had already tightly grasped Childe Guo’s throat.

"Young master!"

All the surrounding guards turned pale, but seeing Qiao Mu firmly restraining Childe Guo’s hand, they dared not approach.

Disaster struck!

Childe Guo is the number one playboy in Yan City, and no one dares to oppose him.

At this moment, all the guards’ attention is focused on the swordsman couple from another region, so they never expected someone to suddenly appear on the roadside.

"The young master of the city lord has been kidnapped!"

The common people on both sides of the street never expected such a turn of events. While they felt a hidden satisfaction, they also felt uneasy.

"Is this another outsider? How dare they lay a hand on the city lord’s son! This is outrageous!"

"This young man is too reckless. If things escalate, he, an outsider, can simply walk away, but we might suffer the consequences!"

"Brother, brother, let’s talk." Childe Guo was held by Qiao Mu around his neck, his face turning red.

However, he still tried to maintain his composure and said:

"Brother, you may not know, I am the son of Yan City Lord, and the whole city belongs to my Guo family."

"So what?" Qiao Mu held Childe Guo’s neck with one hand, lifting him up like a little chicken.



Childe Guo continued, "This place is not far from the lord’s mansion. If you hurt me, my father will come immediately!"

Is there such a good thing?

Qiao Mu instantly became happy.

At this moment, the Ouroboros Long Life Lock in his mind emitted a faint glow.

This means that what Qiao Mu is currently doing is approved by the Ouroboros Long Life Lock and can improve the Death Assessment.

He planned to be brave and kill the Lord’s son, but then he would likely be killed by the guards.

But if the Lord could come in time, wouldn’t the situation become even bigger?

If he died at the hands of the Lord, his Death Assessment would surely reach a higher level, right? S~eaʀᴄh the nôvelFire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Thinking of this, Qiao Mu raised his hand and gave Childe Guo two big slaps, one after the other.

After killing Butcher Zheng, Qiao Mu went from a beginner in martial arts to reaching his maximum strength, with his arms having the strength of 500 kilograms.

With Qiao Mu’s current strength, if he were to slap someone, not only would it cause a concussion, but it could also possibly kill them if he didn’t hold back.

Smack! Smack!

The crisp and loud sound of a slap echoed through the quiet street.

With these two slaps, Childe Guo’s head was turned to the side, blood flowing from his nose and mouth, his head feeling dizzy, and his eyes almost unable to open.

"Young master!"

"How dare you!"

Qiao Mu held Childe Guo by the collar with one hand, lifting him in front of him, and faced the guards expressionlessly.

"Big…big brother, I admit defeat." Childe Guo struggled to open his swollen eyes and called out with his mouth open.

As soon as he opened his mouth, his front teeth mixed with blood and saliva spewed out.

Who would have expected that Qiao Mu would get angry when he heard it.

"You are not allowed to admit defeat! Call your father here!" Qiao Mu swung another slap, hitting Childe Guo’s head to the side, making an unsettling cracking sound from his neck.

"Wha…what are you staring at? Go find my father!" Childe Guo said indistinctly.

His whole person was being held in Qiao Mu’s hand, and his body couldn’t help but tremble. The arrogant posture he had on the horseback before was completely gone.

On the other side.

The sword-wielding man in a green robe leaned on his sword, breathing heavily. He had multiple knife wounds on his body, which were not light.

He turned his head and looked back, a bitter smile appearing on his face.

His wife had completely disappeared.

When Qiao Mu caused a commotion, she didn’t even turn back. Instead, she took advantage of this opportunity to run far away. Now, her figure could no longer be seen.

Thinking of this, he looked up at Qiao Mu, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The two of them, both of the 9th rank, were locked in a bitter battle with the guards of the City Lord’s son. Meanwhile, the young man over there seemed to have not yet cultivated internal strength, but dared to launch a sneak attack at this time?

Moreover, he actually succeeded?

The man in the green robe was filled with bitterness.

He had never expected that his beloved wife would run away during a critical moment, but instead, a stranger saved him.

When his mind was filled with various thoughts.

Suddenly, he realized something and looked up sharply.



Tap, tap, tap…

The loud sound of horse hooves merged together, approaching from a distance.

At the end of his field of vision, a hundred-strong cavalry rushed towards him, the chaotic sound of horse hooves causing the ground to tremble.

The leader, with a towering figure and a stern expression, exuded an extraordinary aura.

He was the ruler of the city of Yan, named Guo Yan.
