"You...and you." Su Tiyue pointed to the two slightly thinner guards in front of her and instructed, "You two split up and leave the mansion from the north and south walls respectively. Once you're out, immediately go to the yamen to report to the authorities. Remember, if you encounter danger, do not linger in battle, just run..."

"yes!"

After two of the people who were supposed to protect them were sent away, there were very few people in the manor who knew a little bit of martial arts left.

There were about forty or fifty men gathered at the entrance, but they were all honest and law-abiding ordinary people. If a fight really broke out, they would definitely be no match for those men...

Su Tiyue looked back at the people in the room, and suddenly remembered those tragic cases where entire families were slaughtered overnight.

Despite all precautions, is the Su family truly unable to escape this situation?

Her heart was filled with despair.

Beneath the lotus-colored gauze sleeves, her fingers trembled involuntarily.

But Su Tiyue knew that being afraid and panicking was useless now. Since she was going to die anyway, she might as well go all out.

She frowned, looking at Qingwu, the guards, and the men in front of her, her eyes resolute: "You can defend this gate behind you if you can, but if you really can't... there's no need to fight to the death. If you can run and survive, try your best to live... The Su family doesn't want to owe you a life. Everyone remember, even if you can't hold it, no one will blame you."

Su Tiyue turned around and picked up a wooden stick about the thickness of an arm that was leaning against the wall. She held it tightly in her hand. "Although we are people who are powerless, we will not stand there and let others slaughter us."

After listening, everyone calmly exchanged glances, and then nodded to each other in unison.

In a life-or-death situation, their master did not ask them to risk their lives, but instead thought that... they could survive.

Based on this alone, they have no reason to back down.

Moreover, the Su family had treated them well; this kindness was worth risking their lives for.
