Xin'er originally wanted to find an opportunity to meet Luoxue, but Luoxue and Mu Lingtian were inseparable, and Mu Lingtian would never let Luoxue go too far away from his sight, and protected Luoxue tightly, so Xin'er followed her for two days. I didn't find a chance to talk to Luoxue.
Since the road Mu Lingtian and Luoxue took was relatively remote, Xin'er did not dare to expose their whereabouts in order not to be discovered by Mu Lingtian. Seeing that today was half a month, Xin'er still had no chance to get close to Luoxue, not even for a while. There was no chance to pass the note to Luoxue, so Xin'er had no choice but to decide to sneak attack Mu Lingtian.
Although it is a hot summer day, the weather in the north is indeed much cooler, and the gentle breeze makes people feel much calmer.
Mu Lingtian naturally chose a road with relatively few people, so he rode with Luo Xue and slowly walked on a road without people. Apart from the faint sound of horse hooves, there were only the occasional birds and animals. Voice.
The scenery all around was pleasant. Mu Lingtian looked ahead with an indifferent expression, as if he was not interested in anything. In those dark eyes, the only thing he wanted was to reach the place Luoxue said he wanted to go.
Luoxue was still wearing a pure white dress, riding a horse, following closely beside Mu Lingtian. She occasionally glanced at Mu Lingtian, with a faint smile on her lips, feeling both happy and reluctant in her heart.
"Whoosh——"
A cold arrow flew up from the grass, and then among the weeds on both sides of the road, twenty or thirty masked men in black jumped up, holding powerful crossbows and carrying swords, and shot crossbow arrows at Mu Lingtian.
No matter when, Mu Lingtian would not let down his guard, and after Hidden Sword Villa, Mu Lingtian had been worried about Ye Xun's conspiracy, so even if he had arrived in the north, he still did not dare to be careless.
Hearing the movement, Mu Lingtian's eyes were wary, and he glanced sideways, filled with murderous intent. He easily pulled out Can Shang from the horse, stepped lightly on the horse's back, flew up, gathered his inner strength, and waved Can Shang.
In mid-air, there seemed to be two Mu Lingtian wielding swords, and then countless sword blades stabbed, slashed, and whirled wildly, flying towards the crossbow arrows.
"Swish swish"
The sword's edge connected with the covering crossbow arrows with the clear sword sound.
"Bang bang bang——"
The power of the sword edge shattered the crossbow arrows, and then exploded, raising a puff of smoke. The strong airflow spread from the internal force knocked down all the other crossbow arrows.
Although these masked men in black were similar to other men in black, their crossbows did reveal their identities. Luoxue recognized these as her dead soldiers at a glance, and then she frowned and felt a thump in her heart. Then he remembered that today was the half-month period, and knew that Xin'er must have wanted to create an opportunity for herself to sneak attack Mu Lingtian.
Looking at Mu Lingtian above his head, he wondered how he could get rid of Luoxue. The reluctance in his eyes showed a trace of panic. He couldn't help but worry about what he should do if Mu Lingtian started fighting with his people. He looked at Mu Ling Will God kill all his people? Or reveal your identity?
This sneak attack on Mu Lingtian was firstly to remind Luoxue about the half-moon period, and secondly, she wanted to create an opportunity. She cooperated with Luoxue Liyingwai to sneak attack Mu Lingtian and complete the task for Luoxue, but Xin'er didn't know what Luoxue was thinking.
Of course, Xin'er was among the men in black, holding a long sword in her hand and paying attention to Luo Xue's every move. As long as Luo Xue made a move, Xin'er would desperately create opportunities for Luo Xue.
After a round of arrows, all the men in black did not continue to attack. They just stepped back a foot as planned, avoiding the range of Mu Lingtian's sword and retreating to a safe distance. It seemed that they did not want to confront Mu Lingtian head-on. , and didn’t want Mu Lingtian to pursue him.
When Mu Lingtian saw the man in black retreating, he frowned slightly and murmured in his heart. He didn't know what the situation was like. Although he wanted to attack, the distance between the man in black and the man in black was a bit too far. The situation between the enemy and ourselves was unclear. Next, Mu Lingtian did not dare to act rashly, for fear of being offended by the man in black, so he had no choice but to hold the ruins in his hand, stand on the horse, and scan the man in black who surrounded him with cold eyes, wanting to see What tricks will the other party use?
The smoke and dust had gradually dispersed, and Xin'er stood in the crowd and looked at Luoxue. Those eyes full of fighting spirit revealed her purpose.
But Luoxue frowned deeply and held the reins in her hands tightly. The tenderness in her beautiful eyes revealed her heart. Her mind went blank. The only thing she thought about was that if her identity was exposed, she would How should I face Mu Lingtian.
At this moment, Luoxue felt a deep dependence and fear. She had never thought that she would care so much about one thing. Looking at Xin'er's eyes, Luoxue's heart seemed to jump out of her chest. The fear of leaving Mu Lingtian filled Luoxue's heart, causing a trace of calm panic to appear on that alluring face, which really made people feel pity.
Seeing that Luoxue didn't take action, Xin'er immediately confirmed her thoughts. Now that her goal has been achieved, she can't change anything, and if a fight really breaks out, the outcome can be imagined, so Xin'er sighed softly and wrinkled slightly. He frowned and raised his hand to signal everyone to retreat, intending to look for opportunities again and make plans after contacting Luoxue.
The man in black saw Xin'er's gesture, neatly put away the crossbow, placed it on his waist, and quickly dispersed around.
Mu Lingtian originally thought that these men in black were here to kill him. Seeing the men in black retreat, he couldn't help but feel confused. He didn't know why these men in black retreated so easily after such a simple attack. This really made him feel confused. People were a little confused, looking at Xin'er who raised her hand to command with deep eyes, showing a trace of youthful confusion.
Xin'er glanced at Luoxue with a frown, a hint of murderous intent in her worried eyes, and stared back at Mu Lingtian. She happened to meet Mu Lingtian's indifferent eyes with lowered eyebrows, then took a step back, turned around slowly, and quickly left.
This sneak attack ended inexplicably like a joke. This really made Mu Lingtian a little confused. I wonder if these men in black are unwilling to confront him head-on? Or is there another purpose?
Now that the man in black had left, Mu Lingtian didn't think too much. He jumped lightly and landed on the horse. He put Canshang back into the scabbard and glanced sideways at Luoxue. He saw Luoxue's eyes were a little confused. Worried, a little sluggish, he asked in confusion: "Luoxue? Are you... okay?"
Luoxue came back to her senses after hearing the voice. She looked at Mu Lingtian with her beautiful eyes. She immediately forgot all her worries. She only had Mu Lingtian in her eyes. She slightly raised the corner of her mouth and said with a hesitant smile: "No...it's just...these people...could it be that... Are these people afraid of Young Master?"
Mu Lingtian looked at the direction in which Xin'er was leaving and shook his head. He didn't understand either.
