In the woods, she heard them say, "The last time he fell down a cliff, he didn't die. This time, he won't be so lucky."

It was because these people knew that she had fallen off the cliff and that she had not died, and now they wanted to make up for it. If they were the ones who fell last time, then one of their goals was to kill Shui Qingyan.

"Yo, Fourth Miss, long time no see." Someone from far away was blowing the hooligan's whistle and shouting.

It was the eighteen tribes headed by Zhu Mingyi.

In the distance, on the official road, a luxurious carriage made of heavy wood quietly stopped there. Inside the carriage, Chu Chen leaned on the soft couch, and closed his eyes to meditate.

Phoenix Yaoling said as her lips turned pale, "I will go to the bamboo forest to rest for a while. You must not kill her, or else you and I will be finished."

Chu Chen did not answer.

Phoenix Yaoling knew that Chu Chen had listened to her words, so he lifted the curtain of the carriage and glanced at the distant Shui Qingyan. Then, he tiptoed and flew away.

Inside the carriage, Chu Chen was lying on the bed with his eyes closed. His long eyelashes were densely packed in black.

As the scenes regarding Shui Qingyan flashed past her mind, Chu Chen slowly frowned. He felt that Shui Qingyan was like a rose with thorns, and anyone who attempted to pick it, would be excluded by her excessive self-protection.

Liuyi sat outside and drove, so he knew everything about Shui Qingyan. He did not understand where Miss Shui Si had provoked the master's anger. He didn't understand why his master would stop right there after she had left. His master clearly didn't seem to be worried about the Fourth Miss. Was her master really different from the Fourth Miss?

Thinking about it, Liuyi looked up from afar. He also didn't understand Master's behavior anymore.

Over there, a dozen horses circled Shui Qingyan.

"How did this little face become so ugly?" Someone said in surprise, "Look at his wrinkled forehead."

"It seems like my eyes can't see it either." Another person noticed that Shui Qingyan's eyes had gone bad.

"I was planning to capture him and bring him back to serve us for a few days." Someone shamelessly teased.

When he said that, a faint smile appeared on Shui Qingyan's lips, revealing her dense white teeth. If she did not die, she would make this person wish that she was dead.

"Is this silk for you?" A mature voice took out a piece of silk and asked Shui Qingyan.

Instantly, no one made a sound, and the sound of the horses' hooves stopped.

Shui Qingyan did not say anything, but continued to smile, and the corner of her mouth revealed dense white teeth.

"Big brother, she can't see." Someone reminded him.

"Her heart is very clear." Another person spoke up.

"Your hearts are clearer than mine." Shui Qingyan slowly said.

"Big brother, all thirty-six of them are dead." Someone had returned on horseback from Sixth Senior Servant's grave.

When these words came out, everyone held their breath and looked towards the Great Master of the Eighteen Stronghold, Zhu Mingyi.

After a long while, Zhu Mingyi, who was called Big Brother, opened his mouth gravely: "Is that you, the person in the bamboo forest? You killed three people with your bare hands, and you killed them without even seeing them?"

"How is this possible? She's just a weak young miss, how could she dare to kill someone!" The shameless person said as he looked at Shui Qingyan's face regretfully.

Zhu Mingyi looked at the shameless man coldly, and stared at him quietly.

" If I do not die, I will definitely kill Hu Yi Qing. " Shui Qingyan laughed as she turned her head towards the direction of Zhu Mingyi's voice.

Hu Yiqing was the maiden name of the Second Aunt. She wanted to know if this group of people were related to the Madam Hu.

As expected, the person's breathing stagnated. No, everyone was slightly startled, and Shui Qingyan's ears reported everyone's expression back to Shui Qingyan's brain.

In this way, these people were indeed related to the Second Aunt s. Shui Qingyan smiled brilliantly.

To Zhu Mingyi, what Shui Qingyan had said was a form of probing and an answer to his question, because no one knew the relationship between Hu Yi Qing and the eighteen strongholds.

"Hahaha." Zhu Mingyi laughed when he heard it, "Who would have thought that the Fourth Miss of the Shui clan would actually hide her strength."

"No matter how secretive he is, he was still tricked by Hu Yiqing." Shui Qingyan said with a bland smile.

Zhu Mingyi looked at Shui Qingyan's lightly smiling eyes, and slightly narrowed them: "So it's like this, you'll definitely die today without a doubt."

"The rabbit got anxious and started biting people." Shui Qingyan's tone carried warmth as usual.

"Attack!" Zhu Mingyi looked at the smile in Shui Qingyan's eyes, and suddenly had a feeling of 'not killing this person, but rather being killed by him'.

Immediately, some of the riders rode forward and raised their blades to slash at Shui Qingyan.

Shui Qingyan slightly tilted her body, dodging the large blade, and then punched the horse that the big blade man was riding on.

The horse jerked up its front hooves in pain.

Shui Qingyan was not in time to dodge, she was sent flying three meters by the horse's kick. With a "ka" sound, her left arm was dislocated, and she was in so much pain that sweat trickled down Shui Qingyan's forehead.

The broadsword man did not react and fell off his horse.

"Hahaha, Eighth Brother, you are getting more and more stupid." One of them laughed.

Everyone turned to look at the laughing person.

The man stopped smiling awkwardly.

Zhu Mingyi spoke again: "Look behind you, the one who killed people in the bamboo forest is you without a doubt."

With these words, everyone in the eighteen strongholds all understood that Shui Qingyan had been blacklisted from the eighteen strongholds.

Shui Qingyan killed all eighteen brothers, and according to the rules of the eighteen strongholds, she must use Shui Qingyan's blood to sacrifice Brother's spirit in heaven.

"You think too highly of me." Shui Qingyan clenched her teeth, and connected her arm back to him. Then, she revealed her dense white teeth while smiling.

"I'm afraid it won't be as the boss wishes." Liuyi descended from the skies and stood in front of Shui Qingyan, "Boss, you should leave now.

"Hur hur, there's even a little lover." The shameless man teased.

After Liuyi heard this, his face darkened.

"And who are you!" Zhu Mingyi could not help but frown, to be able to quietly descend from their foreheads to Shui Qingyan's side, it meant that this person's martial arts was not weak. If it was him, she might not have done as well.

"Leave, or, leave your life." Liuyi's eyes shone with a cold light.

"Big brother, let's go!" Some people could not stand Liuyi's cold attitude.

"That's right, big brother. He's alone, there's more than a dozen of us." Some people agreed.

"Big Brother, how about we capture Fourth Miss and take her back for Shui’s Marion or Second Prince?" The shameless man spoke again. As he spoke, his eyes continued to scan Shui Qingyan's body.

Shui Qingyan raised her eyebrows.

Liuyi frowned slightly in disgust.

Zhu Mingyi thought for a moment, and just as he was about to nod his head, he suddenly said: "Sixteen, crawl down!"

Finished speaking, blood splattered everywhere, the person who tried to take advantage of Shui Qingyan, had her throat pierced by a flying flexible sword and fell down.

"Ten breaths of time, f * ck off!"

The voice came from the carriage a thousand meters away. However, everyone could not help but feel a chill in their hearts when they heard the voice.

Zhu Mingyi's eyes were filled with rage as he turned his head and stared at the carriage with anger. He naturally recognized that it was a carriage made from heavy wood, but Chu Chen had not seen the carriage for five years, so he did not recognize Chu Chen's identity.

However, Zhu Mingyi knew that the person who could make a carriage out of heavy wood and still recognize them was definitely not an ordinary person. Today, he had run into both Liuyi and the Thousand Li Sound Transmission, he knew that they were no match for each other.

Gripping the reins tightly, Zhu Mingyi retracted his gaze and stared deadly at Shui Qingyan.

He never thought that Shui Qingyan would actually have such an expert protecting him at her side, and also never thought that she would be defeated today.

Zhu Mingyi glared at Shui Qingyan with unspeakable unwillingness in his eyes. After a long while, he suddenly pulled the reins in his hands and turned the horse around: "Fourth miss, the 18 Stronghold will use your blood to pay a tribute to our brothers' souls!"

After he finished speaking, someone carried Sixteen's corpse and led the Sixteen Horses away, then left with Zhu Mingyi.

"Waiting for you." Shui Qingyan smiled faintly, then walked over and picked up the flexible sword on the ground.

If she didn't know that Chu Chen was scheming this time, she would have been grateful towards him.

However, Chu Chen had truly helped her. Without Chu Chen here, it would be hard for her to escape this calamity.

"Fourth Miss." Liuyi stretched out his hand to ask for Shui Qingyan's flexible sword.

Shui Qingyan lifted her own sleeve and then carefully wiped off the bloodstains on the software.

Liuyi was slightly shocked by Shui Qingyan's actions. He thought that Shui Qingyan had given him the flexible sword in return in disdain.

Inside the carriage in the distance, Chu Chen slightly lifted the curtain of the carriage, just in time to see Shui Qingyan wiping her sword.

After wiping off the blood on it, Shui Qingyan returned it back to Liuyi with both hands: "Tell your master that I will not agree to what your master wants. He will walk his own path, and I will walk my own path." With Chu Chen's help, all she could do was help him wipe the blood off his sword.

What Chu Chen wanted, she, Shui Qingyan, definitely would not give.

With that, Shui Qingyan turned and left.

Chu Chen smiled slightly as he saw Shui Qingyan's actions. He had now swept away the inexplicable feeling of depression that had appeared previously. He could tell that Shui Qingyan was someone who would take advantage of the situation.

Liuyi looked at Shui Qingyan's back, and reminded him with good intentions: "Fourth Miss, that is not the direction in which we should enter the capital."

"I have no intention of going back." Madam Hu couldn't help but know that she went to Ma Ji Town and colluded with people from the eighteen strongholds. If she went back now, Madam Hu should have already prepared a sack for her to crawl into. She needed to calm down and think of a foolproof plan.

Shui Qingyan's body, suddenly had her acupuncture points pierced.

Smelling Chu Chen's unique scent in the air, Shui Qingyan frowned: "prince, what are you planning to do?"
