One of the assassins was about to give chase when Princess Jingning and Princess Hui An came over.
“Little follower, who are you talking to?”
Two more?
The assassin stopped chasing after the woman and child who had escaped. He simply used his Light-body Technique to stop them.
Su Xiaoxiao sized up the two robbers.
“What are you looking at!”
One of the robbers felt his scalp tingle under her sharp gaze.
Su Xiaoxiao looked away.
The three of them were tied up and stuffed into a dilapidated carriage.
A beautiful woman sat beside the three of them and threatened, ‘You’d better not shout or I’ll kill you!”
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her and lowered her eyes.
Just like Mei Ji, she was good at bewitching techniques.
When the carriage passed another alley, another woman was tied up.
When the three of them saw her, they were shocked, but no one showed it on their faces.
The woman expressionlessly sat down next to Princess Jingning, right opposite Su Xiaoxiao.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at her and she also looked at Su Xiaoxiao.
Neither of them said anything.
The carriage left the north gate.
Su Xiaoxiao noticed that there was actually another carriage behind this carriage. The hostages they had captured were also inside.
The carriage headed north.
Further ahead, they would either head toward the palace or the peach forest of the White Lotus Society.
It was obvious that the carriage was turning in the latter direction.
“Urgh…’
From the carriage behind came the sound of a child vomiting.
“Save him! He’s dying!”
It was the pleading voice of another child.
The coachman behind cursed and stopped the carriage.
Su Xiaoxiao’s carriage stopped and waited for them.
Hearing the commotion, Su Xiaoxiao determined that the hostages in the carriage behind were all children. There were five of them.
After the child got out of the car and vomited, he was brought into the carriage.
Princess Hui An kicked her feet angrily. “You don’t even let the children off. You’re worse than a beast!”
Su Xiaoxiao and the woman who was brought up last looked at the woman who was holding them hostage.
The woman didn’t move.
The two of them looked away again.
Soon, the carriage arrived near the peach forest of the White Lotus Society.
Princess Hui An had been to the peach forest and recognized it at a glance.
She widened her eyes and looked at her sidekick. Peach forest, peach forest!
Su Xiaoxiao signaled at her to calm down.
Princess Hui An muttered, “Oh.”
Su Xiaoxiao knew the plan today. She could almost guess who this group of people was.
It seemed that Xiahou Yan had taken the bait and decided to come to the peach forest to fulfill the appointment.
However, Xiahou Yan was even more cunning and sinister than they had imagined. He captured women and children to serve as shields. In that case, it would not be so easy to ambush him.
The carriage stopped at the side of the road.
Wuyou alighted from the carriage.
Not long after, she changed her appearance and dressing. Even her voice changed.
However, Su Xiaoxiao had been with Mei Ji for many days and was very familiar with a pair of eyes that were good at charm techniques. The assassin also tore off his clothes, revealing his black clothes.
Xiahou Yan was the last to arrive.
But strangely, he was followed by another carriage.
“Including that man, there are 30 people.” the woman opposite said. Su Xiaoxiao asked strangely, “Why were you captured too?”
The woman asked, “Aren’t you the same?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “When we enter the forest later, think of a way to leave with the children.”
As she spoke, she looked at Princess Hui An. “Huahua, can you walk?”
Princess Hui An whispered, “Of course I can! Don’t worry, I can run very quickly.
She was pulled by Jingning to ride and shoot arrows every day. She was already strong!
—She would never admit that she had gained weight in the Southern Wilderness!
Princess Jing Ning coughed lightly.
Su Xiaoxiao immediately asked obsequiously, “Can Ningning walk?”
Princess Jing Ning said, “In any case, I can walk better than her.”
Princess Hui An curled her lips at Jingning.
However, to everyone’s surprise, Xiahou Yan, the bastard, did not let them enter the forest as shields. Instead, he asked someone to shout outside the forest and ask the people in the forest to come out and see him.
Otherwise, he would kill the hostages one after another until he was done.
The first to be pushed out was the “nosy” child just now.
He was a little beggar. He was sallow and thin. He looked to be only seven years old, but he should be more than that.
Princess Hui An gritted her teeth in anger. “How despicable! These beasts won’t even let such a young child off!”
The eldest of the other children was no more than ten years old, and the youngest was only two years old.
Su Xiaoxiao punched the wall of the carriage.
The assassin outside berated, “Why are you making so much noise! Do you want to die!”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “It’s too stuffy in the carriage. I can’t breathe.”
Princess Jing Ning said, “She’s pregnant. If this continues and someone dies, you’ll have one less bargaining chip with which to threaten the other party.”
The assassin went to report to Xiahou Yan.
Xiahou Yan waved his hand.
The assassin walked over and lifted the curtain. “All of you, come down!”
They got out of the carriage.
Su Xiaoxiao looked extremely weak and couldn’t move.
Su Xiaoxiao walked towards the children calmly.
In any case, they were both hostages. It was normal for them to be imprisoned together.
The assassin who had kidnapped the child said, “I’ll count to three. If you don’t come out, I’ll kill the first hostage!”
“Three!”
“Two!”
The child was so frightened that he cried.
A golden eagle flew past in the sky and let out the roar of the overlord of the sky!
Now!
Su Xiaoxiao held the child in front of her. “Let’s go!”
Princess Jingning and Princess Hui An also each held a child.
The woman hugged the two-year-old.
Almost at the same time, a cold arrow shot out from the forest and pierced the assassin’s heart!
The woman used her qinggong and pounced forward to grab the child who was almost killed.
A rain of arrows flew over from the forest.
The woman jumped up and shuttled through the overwhelming rain of arrows.
As Princess Hui An ran, she asked worriedly, “Will she be fine?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Yes.”
Because that woman was Leng Zhiruo.
Round after round of arrows stopped the pursuit of the men in black.
However, it was only for a few moments. The men in black avoided the oncoming rain of arrows and surrounded them from the side, quickly catching up to them. 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝖊𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝔬𝖛𝔢𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪
Behind him was a terrifying miasma forest.
Wuyou, who had disguised herself, was filled with anger.
She looked coldly at the group of women and children. “Now, let’s see where you can escape to.”
Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “Miss Leng, I’ll stall these people. Take them into the miasma forest.’
Leng Zhiruo asked, “Are you sure?”
Su Xiaoxiao said solemnly, “Yes.”
Leng Zhiruo no longer hesitated and quickly entered the miasma forest with the group.
Wuyou frowned.
She immediately wanted to chase after him.
Su Xiaoxiao flipped her fingertips and shot out countless silver needles. She opened her pouch and threw out a row of Thunderbolt Beads.
The four men in black were blown up and fell under the effect of the medicine.
However, there was no worry on the ground.
Su Xiaoxiao was about to turn around when a sword was placed on her neck.
This woman’s qinggong was too amazing.
When did she come behind her?
Wuyou circled in front of her coldly and threatened, “Do you still want to play dirty tricks? Why don’t we see if your hidden weapon is faster or if my sword is faster?”
Su Xiaoxiao suddenly smiled.
Wuyou said, “What are you smiling at?”
Su Xiaoxiao sneered. “I’m smiling at you for being stupid. Why do you think I dare to stay alone?”
She looked behind Wuyou. “Do it!”
Wuyou suddenly turned around, but there was no one there. “How dare you trick me? See if I don’t cut open your stomach and…” When Wuyou turned around, she was completely dumbfounded.
The woman was gone!
