Xiao Jinxing swiftly pulled Ye Qichi into his arms.

The assassin’s sword missed its mark.

Before the assassin could react, Xiao Jinxing, dragging Ye Qichi, dashed forward frantically.

Ye Qichi was also somewhat astonished that Xiao Jinxing would save her life.

According to Xiao Jinxing’s nature, shouldn’t he have let her take the sword hit?!

Forget it, regardless, fleeing now is correct.

The assassin was stupefied momentarily before catching up.

The first realization was that King Chen had not been rescued. He had originally chased after other assassins, and while chasing, he suddenly remembered the King of Chu’s command—to kill King Chen and also King Chen’s wife. But clearly, only one guard took King Chen, which meant King Chen’s wife was still at the post station. So he immediately turned back to kill King Chen’s wife, yet unexpectedly, he found that King Chen’s wife was already at the doorway.

He stabbed forward without hesitation, only to suddenly see King Chen.

King Chen hadn’t left?!

Did that mean they had been lured away from the real target?!

What shocked him even more was that King Chen could walk on his own.

Wasn’t King Chen disabled?!

Overwhelmed by surprise, it took him a while to quickly catch up.

Both Xiao Jinxing and Ye Qichi’s stamina was not very good.

They didn’t run long before they were running out of energy.

The assassin was about to catch up.

Ye Qichi said, "I’ll lead the assassin away, you go first!"

She spoke in gasps.

Xiao Jinxing’s grip on her hand tightened, and he also said breathlessly, "You can’t lead him away; he’s primarily after me!"

Meaning, he damn well won’t let her go; if he had to die, she’d have to die with him.

Ye Qichi cursed inwardly.

This damned man!

The two continued running to their utmost, yet dared not stop.

Feeling the assassin closing in behind them, nearer and nearer... His Qinggong activated, a shining sword stabbing directly at them.

Ye Qichi fiercely moved in front of Xiao Jinxing.

With this sword, Xiao Jinxing would surely die, but she might still live.

She could only, gamble on luck!

Ye Qichi resignedly closed her eyes.

The next moment, instead of the expected pain, the sound of clashing swords suddenly rang by her ear.

Ye Qichi hurriedly opened her eyes, only to see Yuan Wenkang, who had appeared at some unknown time, now fighting the assassin.

Just in time!

Ye Qichi breathed a sigh of relief.

At this moment, Xiao Jinxing was shielded behind her, also seemingly, relieved a bit.

But Ye Qichi’s recent gesture, unhesitatingly blocking the sword for him...

Xiao Jinxing’s eyes tightened.

All emotions could vanish in an instant.

He commanded Yuan Wenkang, "Leave no survivors!"

"Your subordinate obeys!" Yuan Wenkang took the order.

"Go!" Xiao Jinxing made a swift decision, pulling Ye Qichi and quickly leaving.

The assassin saw Xiao Jinxing and Ye Qichi leaving, and prepared to chase with a leap using his Qinggong.

Yuan Wenkang also jumped up, directly blocking the assassin and, at the same time, stabbed the assassin’s arm.

The assassin, bearing the pain, was forced to keep fighting Yuan Wenkang.

Xiao Jinxing and Ye Qichi escaped some distance and saw horses that Yuan Wenkang had prepared for them.

"Can you ride a horse?" Xiao Jinxing asked.

"No," Ye Qichi replied breathlessly.

Who needs such archaic forms of transport in the apocalypse?

"Even if you can’t, you have to ride. If you fall off, I won’t help you!" Saying this, Xiao Jinxing had already mounted a horse.

Damn him!

Why did she save him just now!

He should’ve been hacked to death by random swords!

Ye Qichi gritted her teeth and struggled to also climb onto the horseback.

She barely managed to get on.

Still not seated firmly.

Xiao Jinxing whipped her horse’s hind, and the horse instantly darted off.

Ye Qichi quickly embraced the horse’s neck, nearly falling off.

It was terrifyingly close.

Her horse took off running, and Xiao Jinxing’s horse followed, even quickly overtaking her.

She watched Xiao Jinxing ahead...

This guy was supposed to be disabled, right?!

Yet his horsemanship was incredibly skilled.

In the dark of night, she almost saw his heroic, breezy figure.

Dammit!

Was he mocking her inability to ride because she wasn’t from ancient times?!

Ye Qichi forced herself to let go of the horse’s neck, sitting up straighter, then gripping the reins tightly, she mimicked Xiao Jinxing’s way of controlling the horse, urging the steed to follow Xiao Jinxing, wildly racing forward!

At this moment, she couldn’t help but think.
