Chen Huan's face was expressionless. Then, she suddenly laughed out loud, "Second Miss sent them away, so you're not afraid …"
"Not afraid." "You don't dare to touch me."
She had always believed in her own judgement. Whatever she was certain of, she had never needed any evidence or reasons. She had an unfathomable amount of confidence in her judgement, but of course, this could also be interpreted as arrogance.
Whether it was her intuition or her previous observation of Chen Huan, Dong Ling Wan was certain that Chen Huan didn't want to hurt her, or that Chen Huan didn't dare to hurt her. The reason why Dong Ling Wan asked this was to see if she could find out who the person behind him was from him.
Dong Ling Wan felt that her trip here was a little strange, but she couldn't figure out where this weird thing was coming from. If this was all manipulated by someone, then was it related to the person behind Chen Huan?
"There is only one line. Master sent Chen Huan to protect Second Miss. Second Miss only needs to be at ease. When the time is right, Master will personally tell Second Miss about it."
The meaning behind Chen Huan's words was extremely clear. Who was this "master"? He would not speak.
"I find it strange. What does your master mean by protecting or monitoring him?" When she thought about how this person had been lurking in her residence for four years, Dong Ling Wan could not help but feel a chill down her spine. That day, he had chopped off the head of that man in black, but he did not seem to panic at all.
"That depends on Second Young Miss …" While Dong Ling Wan was still recovering, a dozen or so masked men in black had already surrounded them, surrounding the two people in the middle. Chen Huan held Dong Ling Wan behind her and said in a low voice, "I'll cover you. Take advantage of the chaos to get on the carriage."
"What do you mean, run? What about snow and rain? "
This was the second time, and this was the first time someone had insisted on taking her life.
"Master only ordered me to protect Second Miss, the lives of the others have nothing to do with me!"
It's true that it has nothing to do with you, but it has nothing to do with me! Eastern Ling Wan's voice was a little cold.
The black clothed man launched an attack, instantly falling into a chaotic battle. Since they were sent to kill Eastern Ling Wan, their skills naturally wouldn't be weak. While protecting her, Chen Huan had to deal with more than ten people at the same time. It was obvious that she was having a hard time.
"Get into the carriage!"
Chen Huan pushed back a black-clothed man, then turned around and shouted at Dong Ling Wan. Dong Ling Wan was at a loss. If this carried on, she and Chen Huan would both die, but if she left Snowy and Tingyu alone …
Seeing that she still didn't cooperate, Chen Huan couldn't care less about what Dong Ling Wan was thinking. She used her hand to chop Dong Ling Wan into pieces and threw her into the carriage. At the same time, she threw her hand, throwing out something that nobody knew what.
Suddenly, he stretched out his hand and dragged Tingyu behind him. Tingyu was startled by his sudden action, and was about to complain when several black clothed people appeared around them. Tingyu was no stranger to these people, and was even a little afraid, didn't she almost die a few days ago at the hands of someone like him?
"After you escape, go look for the young miss. I will go look for you." Snow Flower whispered to Rain.
"I don't! If you want to leave, then let's go together! " Her voice trembled, but she stubbornly refused to leave.
Glue Xue was about to say something when the other men in black rushed over. The look in Glue Xue's eyes suddenly changed, and his aura changed as well. A chilling aura surrounded his body.
With a wave of her hand, a dagger appeared in Snow's hand. Instantly, she fell into a bloody battle with the black clothed man. Tingyu was obviously a burden. She turned around and pushed her out of the battle, "Go find Miss!"
Tingyu was stunned. She had never seen such appreciation of the snow. She was unfamiliar with it. There was blood on her face and she held a sword that she snatched from the man in black. Her killing intent was shocking.
At this moment, the sword in her hand just happened to fall down and stabbed into a person's chest. That person was lying on the ground twitching, spitting blood and not a trace of fear in his eyes.
This was human life! Human lives! Although these people wanted to harm them, how could she act so naturally? It was as if … It was as if she had already experienced this many times, so she was already used to it!
No, it wasn't her sister. Although her elder sister knew some martial arts, she could only defend herself. Her elder sister was a gentle and intelligent woman, not a demon who would kill without blinking an eye!
Tingyu backed up a few steps. Suddenly, she disregarded everything and ran towards the depths of the forest. Seeing this, Blessed Snow was shocked. Why did she go that way?!
Seeing Tingyu leave, a black-clothed person chased after her. Glue Xue quickly flew over to stop that person, and continued to battle with the black-clothed people.
Tingyu was shocked. How could that be? How could her sister be like that! How she wished that all of this was just a dream, that that person wasn't her sister, but after being together for so many years, she knew that that person was the person she spent time with day and night with.
Feeling upset, she panicked and ran to a small hill. There was no more road in front of her and Tingyu had already exhausted all her energy. She threw herself onto the ground and cried out.
Tingyu was sobbing on the ground. Not far away, a gorgeous snake was looking at her with its forked tongue.
After hearing that, she suddenly remembered that Dong Ling Wan was still at her original location. Since someone wanted to kill them, then these people definitely wouldn't let Dong Ling Wan go! He dried his tears and was about to go back to take a look when he looked up to see a snake lunging towards him. The snake's mouth was wide open, revealing two sharp fangs, which sent chills down his spine.
Ah!" Tingyu screamed as she tried to get up, but her feet suddenly slipped and she rolled down the hill …
"Young master!" Young master! A lady rolled down from the mountain! "
These were the last words Tingyu heard. In her confusion, there was a figure leaning over, but she could no longer see that person's face …
When she woke up, it was already evening. Dong Ling Wan wanted to return and search for the two of them, but Chen Huan stopped her, "Ten miles away from that forest is the village. The silver they brought from the mansion is all on them. In comparison, second young miss should consider how to save the old master! "
"Those are just two weak girls!"
"He doesn't even have the ability to protect himself. He deserves to die."
"I really wonder if your master is as cold-blooded as you!" Dong Ling Wan knew that she couldn't do anything to Chen Huan, so she could only use this as an expression of her dissatisfaction.
Chen Huan sneered. At least master treats you warmly!
Looking at his appearance, Dong Ling Wan suddenly recalled the other guards and the one called Wang Shun. It was as Chen Huan had said; the lives of others truly had nothing to do with her.
Dong Ling Wan continued to rush towards Black Cloud Mountain with a rigid face. At the same time, the Imperial Concubine, who was far away in the capital, smashed the buddhist beads onto the ground. "A bunch of useless bums!"
That's right, the person who wanted to kill Eastern Ling Wan was this grand imperial concubine who lived in the imperial capital and had lived in the palace for a long time. Only, the Imperial Concubine, who had been infuriated by the first assassination attempt, did not know that the second wave of assassins she had arranged had also failed.
The imperial concubine clenched her hands into fists after they had been dyed in Danish. The vermilion color was extremely similar to the color of blood. It made this woman look extremely cold and cold. How could she not have her usual dignified and benevolent demeanor?
The imperial concubine smiled coldly. Even if she could avoid the first wave, she didn't believe she could avoid the second and third waves!
How long could his boss keep that small movement hidden? When the imperial concubine learned that Dong Haojie had been kidnapped by bandits, the imperial concubine made up her mind.
Dong Haojie would die without a doubt if he could get rid of Dong Lingwan. When that happened, it would be much easier to deal with Dong Yichuan, a small military official. If he were to secretly frame and accuse Dong Yichuan of rebellion, wouldn't the Xu family be in control of his property? In the end, it was akin to bullying the boss.
Yes, it was already difficult for the owner to gain a foothold in the capital city, not to mention that the boss was a barbarian. In this foreign land, the boss could only be considered as a "famous family", and the word "Prominent Class" probably only fit the word "Prominent Class." Although the boss was prominent, he was not a big family, nor were there any other large clansmen.
The imperial concubine gritted her teeth, "Little girl, don't blame me for being ruthless. You were the one who gave birth to the wrong child!"
Dong Ling Wan rolled awkwardly down from the carriage, and before she could recover her wits, a long sword had already viciously pierced towards her.
Good! Very good!
The third time! This was the third time! A vicious feeling rose in Dong Ling Wan's heart. The person behind all of this had better pray that he would die here. Otherwise, she wouldn't let him off so easily!
The journey from Liang Du to Black Cloud Mountain would take two months, and Ma Junping had only given him two and a half months' time. It had already been nearly one and a half months.
While Dong Ling Wan and Chen Huan were rushing along the road on both sides, many large rocks suddenly rolled down from the two sides of the road. In a moment of desperation, the two of them had no choice but to jump off the car and flee, but who knew that there would be assassins ambushing at the side of the road. Fresh, gurgling blood gushed out of her wounds, staining her white robes in a blinding crimson color.
A sharp pain came from her arm. Dong Ling Wan sucked in a mouthful of cold air, and almost shed tears.
Clutching her bleeding wound with all her might, Dong Ling Wan crawled up from the ground. At this moment, Chen Huan had already arrived beside Dong Ling Wan to protect her. Dong Ling Wan felt that being unable to learn martial arts was truly a burden! It was rare that Chen Huan didn't dislike him, but she started to despise him.
It wasn't hard to tell that the three attempts to kill her were all done by the same person. If an ordinary person were to plot against another person, they would at most gain an extra layer of protection.
The number of people who managed to escape the last two times was clearly more than the number of people who escaped the previous two times. Chen Huan was already starting to run out of strength and looked to be struggling.
However, right at this moment, an unexpected scene occurred …
