Her head was buried between her knees, and the sadness she had endured finally collapsed.
Outside the window, two figures stood quietly.
Chen Xi turned his head and looked at Leng Wuyan's stiff lips. The cold aura on his body had reached its limit.
Although he doubted her intentions before coming, and even told her, "It's just a waste of time to hire someone to act."
However, now he was unintentionally shocked by the scene in front of him!
Zhang Lian'er's sad expression evoked the softest place deep in his heart!
Those nagging words had already stirred up waves in his heart.
Clenching his fist, he strode to push open the wooden door. But at this moment, Chen Xi grabbed his arm and shook his head gently at him.
In Leng Wuyan's slightly frowned brow, there was a biting murderous aura in the dark night.
He and Chen Xi hid their auras and focused their gazes on the high courtyard wall.
I saw two men in black holding long swords and climbing over the wall with serious expressions.
They seemed to have already understood the layout here, and as soon as they appeared, they went straight to Zhang Lian'er's room.
When they were at the door, they looked at each other and quietly used the tip of their swords to pry open the locked wooden door.
There was a small clang sound, and the crying woman subconsciously raised her head.
It was too late but not too late. When the light from the sword tip was reflected in the woman's eyes, she decisively pulled the pillow under the quilt and hid in the corner at the end of the bed.
Two men in black crept into the room. Under the dim moonlight, they stared at the bulging bag on the bed, and their hands holding the sword tightened.
"……"kill!
The two exchanged glances again, and then they both raised their swords and struck down.
"Well..."
At the same time, Zhang Lian'er had already gathered spiritual power in his palm, and Li Guang was about to shoot the two people in the back.
Suddenly, her sharp eyes glanced out the window and her palms paused.
There are people outside!
This affirmative recognition made her withdraw the spiritual power in her palms. When the two long swords next to her were slashing at the head of the bed, she suddenly rushed out of the house, shouting: "Help! Help..."
"Run away!"
The two men in black discovered that Zhang Lian'er had escaped from the door and hurriedly chased her out. After a while, they found the helpless woman who was shouting for help.
Their eyes turned cold, and they flew up to block Zhang Lian'er's way: "..."
Zhang Lian'er's eyes widened in horror, her desperate calls for help received no response, and her beautiful eyebrows were as wrinkled as a hill.
Step by step, she retreated faintly. Under the moonlight, her face was as pale as paper: "Why, why do you want to kill me..."
"Because you didn't know how to mess with the people you shouldn't have messed with!"
A man in black snorted coldly.
His eyes fell scorchingly on Zhang Lian'er's stunning face. His eyes became lewd, and he couldn't help but discuss with the man on the side: "Brother, it would be a pity to kill You with a sword like this!"
How about...hey, let's take her to the suburbs and have enough fun before we start?"
"Hey! That's a good idea..."
"No...you can't do this..."
Zhang Lian'er shook her head in panic, her eyes seemingly falling on the two men in black. In fact, she was looking for the person hiding outside the door just now.
Strangely, she just noticed that the moonlight at the window was dimmer than elsewhere.
Based on her years of experience in absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, she knows that there must be someone in the place where the spiritual energy is thin.
But...why didn't there be any suspicious signs after she ran out?
The two men in black in front of her were just clowns, and she had nothing to fear. However, those who could hide their presence in the dark without being noticed by her were the masters.
Zhang Lian'er thought that no matter who that person was, he must have bad intentions if he came here in the middle of the night.
Seeing two men in black rushing toward her with evil smiles, she pretended to be panicked and ran away, screaming for help as she ran.
"Damn..."
Leng Wuyan, whose figure was hidden by Chen Xi, clenched his fist again and again. A pair of dark eyes fell on Zhang Lian'er's panicked pretty face for an instant. Those helpless eyes pierced his heart.
, palmed his hands, and subconsciously wanted to help Zhang Lian'er get rid of those two people.
However, Chen Xi's hand stopped his movement again.
"Let go!" Leng Wuyan opened his lips in a low voice, his voice neither loud nor quiet, full of mysterious coldness in the dark night.
The two people holding Zhang Lian'er thought that the voice that came out of thin air was directed at them, and their bodies shook suddenly.
When I turned around, I saw that the courtyard was empty under the moonlight. There was no one there!
"Damn it! It's better to leave quickly!"
A man in black said.
"No...don't take me away...don't kill me..."
Zhang Lian'er shook his head in fear.
This fear does not come from the two people in front of me, but from... that familiar voice.
How many times had those two cold words helped her out of trouble, but it also offended those two terrible women.
She looked at the two people in front of her with complicated eyes.
You don't need to think about it to know that these two people were sent by Bai Lingyun.
Because that day, Leng Wuyan glanced at her one more time, and because her eyes betrayed her heart, which alerted Bai Lingyun, a suspicious and jealous woman.
In the past few days, she had already taken precautions. What she didn't expect was that at the moment when the killer arrived, Leng Wuyan would also be here.
She shook her head sadly, her rippling eyes looking around, hoping in her heart that he didn't notice anything unusual about her.
How she wished he would forget her...
"Yueya'er, let go!"
Leng Wuyan watched helplessly as Zhang Lian'er was taken away by the two men in black, his eyes as cold as ice.
For the first time, he looked at Chen Xi with such sharp eyes. There was no affection or trust in his eyes, only anger and nervousness gushing out.
Chen Xi smiled softly, and there was a deep meaning in the beautiful smile: "Your Majesty, do you really still believe that I am Yue Ya'er?"
"This issue is not what we should discuss now! Didn't you see that Zhang Lian'er has been taken away?"
An inexplicable anger rushed through his heart, burning his eyes. Maybe Leng Wuyan, who was focused on Zhang Lian'er's safety at the moment, didn't notice anything unusual about him. However, as a bystander, Chen Xi took his
All reactions are visible.
She shrugged indifferently, smiled brightly, and said deliberately ruthlessly: "So what? I believe that the Holy One knows better than me who sent those two men in black! The wise Holy One, for an unimportant civilian woman
Is it worth confronting King Annan or even offending the Queen Mother?"
"Yue Ya'er, how can you say such cold words?"
Leng Wuyan looked at Chen Xi in disbelief, his deep eyes filled with disappointment for her.
He wanted to break free from Chen Xi's restraint and save others, but no matter how much strength he exerted, the seemingly fragile woman in front of him could always trap him in place.
