Close to Kyoto...
Nangong Yuanyi and others once stayed up for three days and three nights to practice martial arts and were still in high spirits.
But An Xiyue's physical strength was not as good as theirs, plus he had traveled long distances and rode horses for so long.
At this time, An Xiyue was already tired and sleepy.
Nangong Yuanyi put her on his horse and protected her in his arms, letting her rest for a while.
Fortunately, they had prepared a carriage in the suburbs, and they could take a rest once they got on the carriage.
At this time, there was a chilling chill in the air.
Nangong Yuanyi tightened the rope, the horse suddenly stopped, and An Xiyue also woke up.
She opened her hazy eyes and took a look before saying, "We're almost there."
Suddenly, Nangong Yuanyi's eyes were stained with frost, he glanced around and said in a deep voice: "There is an ambush."
Yuan Bao and Xiao Shi also felt it and were ready to enter combat mode at any time.
An Xiyue suddenly squeezed the cloth bag at her waist, found some poisons and held them in her hands, and then said: "We were very hidden when we left the city, no one knew."
"Yue'er, hold on tight to the rope, don't let go." Nangong Yuanyi ordered.
He wanted to let An Xiyue control the horse so that he could use his hands to deal with the enemy.
An Xiyue understood what he meant. As long as she controlled the direction of the horse so that Nangong Yuanyi had no worries, they would have the possibility of escaping.
An Xiyue nodded heavily, her eyes as cold as frost, without any fear at all, and said in a deep voice: "Don't worry."
At this time, countless men in black shuttled through the trees, surrounding them like a bolt of lightning.
Yuan Bao and Xiao Shi drew their swords at the same time and looked at each other.
Yuan Bao said: "Little girl, this is the real battlefield. Didn't you always say that Shadow didn't give you a chance?"
In the past, they didn't let Xiao Shi come out because they thought she was a girl and girls needed to be protected.
Xiao Shi gave him a cold look, his eyes flashing with coldness, "Would you like to compete?"
There were many people in black, but there were only four of them, and two of them were women.
Suddenly overjoyed, one of the men in black said coldly: "Which one of you is Nangong Yuanyi?"
Yuanbao almost burst out laughing, Ganqing came to assassinate the prince again.
"What advice do you have?" Yuan Bao held his breath and imitated Nangong Yuanyi.
"Are you Prince Nangong? Don't take this advice seriously. I will capture you alive, cut your skin off, drink your blood and eat your flesh." The man in black said, "The others will be killed without mercy."
At this time, the people in black attacked. Xiao Shi and Yuan Bao rode forward in tacit understanding. Suddenly they rose into the air. All the people in black were injured wherever the long sword reached. The other people in black attacked Nangong Yuanyi. go.
Nangong Yuanyi pursed her thin lips and said softly: "Close your eyes."
How could An Xiyue dare to close her eyes? She held the rope tightly with both hands, hoping not to hold him back.
In an instant, they saw countless sharp knives coming towards them.
Nangong Yuanyi spun around, his light kung fu was surprisingly fast. Within a moment, the men in black who attacked fell to the ground one after another, and their necks were wiped with a knife.
There was fear in the eyes of the man in black, and he saw Nangong Yuanyi's figure like a ghost. After a few turns, the remaining men in black no longer dared to come forward.
One of the men in black shouted in shock: "Who are you?"
Nangong Yuanyi turned around and got on the horse again, saying in a cold voice: "Go back and tell your master, don't always use such tricks to challenge my prince's patience. You are a bunch of losers."
