Jiang Ru was stunned. Her mother actually asked her to kill Ye Xiuchen? She stood up slowly and looked at Duan Qingli not far away: "Is the Queen really stubborn?"
Duan Qingli said: "You are the one who is obsessed with understanding. If you don't kill this person named Ye, don't blame me for not thinking about the love between mother and daughter."
Jiang Ru laughed loudly: "Hahaha, mother-daughter love? Do you really think of us as your daughters? Or, do we really think of us as your daughters?"
"presumptuous."
Duan Qingli scolded, pointed at Jiang Ru and said sternly: "Get this rebellious girl for me."
As soon as the Imperial Guards swarmed up, Jiang Ru pulled off the cloth bag from her waist and waved her hand, causing a stream of powder to scatter in the air.
Half of the imperial troops who came forward fell instantly.
Jiang Ru took the opportunity to pull Ye Xiuchen and run away. When Duan Qingli saw this, she said angrily with a livid face: "Catch them, life or death."
The remaining guards drew their bows and arrows and pointed them at Jiang Ru and Ye Xiuchen. They heard arrows flying in random directions. The arrows fell behind them one after another, and each one missed death.
They fled to the Imperial Garden and bumped into the patrolling guards, while someone behind them shouted: "Catch the assassin!"
Suddenly, the sound of killing broke out.
Jiang Ru was left alone. She had no skills and was injured in many places on her body. However, Ye Xiuchen had his internal energy sealed off by the Queen. He soon became exhausted just by relying on his kung fu.
At this moment, a cold arrow suddenly flew towards Ye Xiuchen.
"careful."
Ye Xiuchen, who was fighting with the guards, heard the sound and looked back, and saw Jiang Ru standing behind her, with the arrow piercing her chest.
He was shocked and hurriedly helped Jiang Ru and asked: "How are you?"
Jiang Ru felt pain all over her body, but she still held on and shook her head and said, "I'm fine."
With that said, she started fighting with the guards again regardless of her injuries.
Ye Xiuchen had never felt so helpless and incompetent as he did now, thinking that the master of the Jue Kill Sect would allow a woman to risk his life to save him.
He looked at this woman who was fighting for her, and her blood-stained back was deeply burned into his heart.
Ye Xiuchen stepped forward, held her hand and said, "Today we will die together and live together."
Jiang Ru looked at her, raised the corners of her lips and said, "Okay!"
The two of them cooperated tacitly and fought their way out.
Ye Xiuchen helped Jiang Ru hide in the rockery and stone forest in the garden. Both of their physical strength had reached the limit. The guards outside were searching and would find them soon.
Ye Xiuchen smelled the strong bloody smell on Jiang Ru's body. He helped her sit down and asked, "Are you okay?"
Jiang Ru leaned on him and said: "I'm fine. It's all my fault. Not only can't I save you, but I've also hurt you. It seems we can't escape today."
Ye Xiuchen listened to her words and said with guilt in his heart: "It's because I'm useless. I'm sorry, it's me who has caused you trouble."
Jiang Ru said: "My life was originally yours, and it is only right that I give it back to you."
Ye Xiuchen: "..."
He looked down at the woman whose face was covered with blood, and his tone became slumped and a little unhappy: "So, you came to save me just to repay your kindness?"
