Chapter 46 How about I take this one?

"Ahh!"

Xu Qingshi screamed and fell heavily to the ground, rolling twice.

It was this commotion that attracted the attention of Luo Qing and the others.

"Big brother, they escaped!"

Seeing the donkey cart and oxcart leave the camp, Luo Qing angrily shouted, "Xu Yinan, fugitives are to be beheaded!"

Xu Yinan stood on the carriage shaft and waved to them: "Officer Luo, if you survive, we'll meet in Yangguan County!"

There's no way he can escape; his brother-in-law is still in Jiangnan!

But right now, staying alive is the most important thing.

"Damn it, they're the ones who brought this assassin here, why should we stay!"

Luo Hao cursed a few times, then slashed one of the assassins, causing blood to splatter everywhere.

Xu Yifei knocked one of the assassins away, forcefully tearing open the assassins' encirclement.

Lu Xun felt a chill run down his spine.

Where did this innate superhuman strength come from? It's terrifying!

Even so, he still hadn't truly learned martial arts!

Lu Xun couldn't believe how powerful he would become if he learned martial arts!

"Quick, over here!"

Xu Yifei was practically a one-man army; anyone who rushed up would be mercilessly sent flying!

Zhi Xia seized the opportunity and broke out through the opening Xu Yifei had created.

The assassin got up and raised the hidden arrow in his sleeve.

"Whoosh!"

The hidden arrow flew precisely towards Xu Yifei!

"Xu Yifei, watch out!"

Lu Xun shouted, but it was too late; he couldn't stop them in time.

Xu Yifei's heart skipped a beat, and only one thought flashed through his mind.

It’s over!

Meanwhile, not far away, Yun Zhao clung tightly to the tiger's neck, his mind racing.

Just as the hidden arrow was about to strike Xu Yifei, it vanished into thin air!

Assassin: ?!

The vanished arrow suddenly reappeared in Yun Zhao's space, piercing Yun Zhao's brain with a sharp pain.

"Ouch, that hurts!"

Yun Zhao had never tried manipulating space to collect items before, and this was the only way he could do it in desperation.

But she never expected that this one move would be enough to knock her down!

She felt dizzy and fell off the tiger's back!

"Zhaozhao!"

Xu Yifei's panicked screams came from afar, and Yun Zhao felt her consciousness gradually dissipating.

"uncle……"

She mumbled something and then fainted.

Lu Li never expected that Yun Zhao would suddenly lose consciousness and fall off the tiger's back.

"What the hell!"

He was suddenly startled, and with a burst of speed, he leaped forward.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

An arrow shot from afar pierced the darkness, and Lu Li dodged it in a sorry state.

He knew these people were different from the previous assassins and that he was powerless to resist, so he immediately shouted.

"Father, save them!"

Lu Xunfei stepped forward, and arrows were shot at him, but he successfully dodged them all.

Taking advantage of the lull, the tigress grabbed the unconscious Yun Zhao and ran off into the distance.

The assassins quickly caught up, but Lu Xun drew his sword and intercepted them.

"The person in the shadows?"

"Companions?"

The assassin sized up Lu Xun and noticed that he was not only not wearing shackles, but also not wearing prison clothes or official uniforms.

"I am just a江湖人士 (jianghu person, someone entrusted to escort these poor women and children)."

"If that's the case, then don't blame us for being impolite!"

The assassin didn't waste any words with him, but put his thumb and forefinger to his lips and whistled.

Everyone who had been entangled with the officials quickly withdrew and gathered together.

Xu Yifei took a few steps back, came to Lu Xun's side, and asked in a low voice, "What is a shadow?"

"An assassin organization."

"We've been counted as heads?"

Xu Yifei looked astonished.

Lu Li landed beside the two of them. "It's not us, it's you."

Xu Yifei: ...

Okay, they're definitely not in cahoots.

"So what do we do now?"

Xu Yifei was strong, but these assassins were truly highly skilled in martial arts.

He suddenly felt uncertain.

"The Shadow Organization's creed is: unless you're dead, you can't abandon your target."

Lu Xun's hand gripping the sword showed prominent veins.

Not knowing whether his master was within the target area, Lu Xun dared not gamble.

"Since you know that too, then prepare to die!"

The assassins swarmed forward, half of them trying to hold off Lu Xun and his group, while the other half chased after the Xu family in the direction they had left.

Xu Yifei gritted his teeth and charged forward.

"You want to kill my sister? Only if I'm dead!"

He suddenly grabbed one of the men's legs, exerted force with both hands, and let out a roar, actually crushing the assassin's ankle!

"Ahhh!"

The assassin slammed heavily to the ground, clutching his foot in excruciating pain.

"What kind of monster is this?!"

The others were startled and decided to leave two of them to deal with him.

A flash of cold light, the sharp blade carrying a chilling aura, aimed straight at Xu Yifei's face.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yifei raised his hand and went straight to meet him!

"Snap!"

Xu Yifei raised his elbow, clamped the blade between his hands, and snapped the sword in two with a twist of his elbow!

Assassin: !

It's a ghost!

The assassin retreated quickly.

Seeing this, the leader roared, "Go after him! Ignore him!"

"yes!"

All the assassins retreated instantly, turned around and fired hidden arrows, taking advantage of the opening to chase after the direction the Xu family had left in.

The assassin was very skilled in agility, and Xu Yifei could only run after him, but he couldn't catch up at all.

Lu Xun and Lu Li had no time to pay attention to him and used their lightness skills to chase after him.

Xu Yifei, who did not know any light-footed skills, could only watch helplessly as the assassin's figure disappeared into the distance.

He slammed his fist into the tree trunk, furious at his own incompetence.

"Ugh! Damn it!"

"Snap!"

He actually broke a tree as thick as an adult by smashing it!

Official: !

Yun Zhao, who was being carried by the tiger, quickly woke up. The tiger, lacking stamina, stopped when it realized she was awake.

Where are we?

Yun Zhao pinched his aching temples and asked.

"Waaah~"

The tiger nudged her back with its head, showing concern for her well-being.

"I'm fine, where are my family?"

Yun Zhao scrambled to his feet and looked around.

"Didn't you leave with them?"

Yun Zhao stroked the tiger's chin and praised it.

"You're so clever! This way you can distract the assassins!"

"If I'm not mistaken, the killer's target is our family, and perhaps the Wei family is also among the killers."

While analyzing the situation, Yun Zhao took out some spiritual spring water from his spatial storage and drank a couple of mouthfuls to replenish his energy.

"You should have some too."

The tiger had barely taken two sips when it instantly pricked up its ears and looked warily behind it.

"They've caught up? They're really fast!"

Yun Zhao tried to use the spatial artifacts and found that he could still move the things inside normally, which put him at ease.

"Come on, carry me on your back!"

The tiger immediately lay down and let her climb onto its back.

"Princess, don't run! Tigers can't go far!"

The assassin caught up with her and immediately tried to persuade her to surrender.

"Who are you people? Why are you trying to kill me?"

Yun Zhao feigned a terrified expression and asked timidly.

The assassins clearly didn't take her seriously; they were only wary of the tiger under Yun Zhao's command.

"The young princess came over and swallowed the poison herself, and soon fell asleep without feeling any pain."

Four or five assassins stopped not far from her, and the man in the lead took out a pill to coax her.

Yun Zhao shook his head.

"You won't do, these pills are too big. I'm only five years old, I can't swallow them~ They'll be very bitter~ How about I take this one instead?"

After saying that, Yun Zhao took out a pink candy pill from his sleeve.

Assassin: ...
