It was already night when she came out of Fu Siji's inn. Xia Houranluo refused Fu Siji's offer and walked alone on the street. Her martial arts was so good that she didn't worry about any danger at all.
What's more, if Fu Siji was asked to send her off, once Emperor Zhan found out, wouldn't it mean that she and Fu Siji had already conspired?
Although this is the imperial capital of the Feng Kingdom, due to the recent case of the Minister of Household Affairs and the Prime Minister, the city has become much more strictly martial after nightfall. The shops have closed early. Except for some restaurants, restaurants and inns, almost all are closed.
Some shops were open to welcome customers, so there was no sound of people on the street.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hoofbeats broke the silence of the night. Xia Houranluo looked at the horse coming toward her in surprise. The horse galloped past her, blowing off her cloak and hat because she was afraid of the cold.
I turned back angrily to look at the man on horseback. He was actually riding a horse and speeding down the street after dark. Isn't this a disregard for human life?
The man on horseback didn't know if he stopped his horse because he noticed Xia Hou Ranluo stopped and turned around to glare at him. The man's back was facing the light. Xia Hou Ranluo didn't see the other person's face clearly, but he could only distinguish the figure from his outline.
He is a tall man.
The other party did not speak. It seemed that even if he stopped his horse and looked back at her, he was not going to apologize to her. Xia Houran snorted coldly, turned around and was about to leave, but was surprised to realize that someone was attacking her from behind, so she quickly turned sideways.
Avoiding it, when she stood firm, the other party had already arrived in front of her.
The wind blew away the clouds in front of the moon. Through the moonlight, Xia Hou Ranluo finally saw the person in front of her clearly. He was the man who almost hit her while riding a horse and still refused to apologize. He looked very young, tall and majestic, with a sword.
With a chiseled face, a high nose and deep eyes, long hair tied back, and a military uniform under a fiery red cloak, he seemed... to be a military commander.
A general from Feng State?
Xia Hou Ranluo had seen many generals from Feng State at the last banquet in Feng State's palace, but she had never seen the man in front of her. But since she was a general from Feng State, why did he attack her?
"You..."
Before Xia Hou Ranluo finished speaking, the man unceremoniously stretched out his big hand and grabbed her. Xia Hou Ranluo ducked sideways again, and then used Qinggong to jump to the side, but the man obviously didn't want to let go.
He passed her. Although he was tall and burly, he was so good at lightness that he could even keep up with her while flying over walls and flying over walls!
Xia Hou Ranluo's internal strength was directly transmitted from Xiahou Yazuo. That skill definitely has the power of hundreds of years of practice. She is extremely talented in martial arts, and the Xiahou family's martial arts all have mystical power that penetrates into the blood and soul.
She didn't know if she really had the soul of the Xiahou family, but the talent and appearance reflected in her bloodline made her never doubt why her surname was Xiahou.
Xiahou Yazhuo said that she was the last woman in the Xiahou family, and did not mention anything about her origins. Moreover, she had a casual temperament, so she never asked questions. But today, if we want to talk about martial arts, the man in front of her is also a master of the Xiahou family's martial arts.
If it was a true biography, she would believe it, otherwise... how could he catch up with her and dodge the hidden weapon she shot? Even though... it was just a few leaves!
