While Long Jingyan was talking to Han Sui, he kept observing Jiang Taohua's expression out of the corner of his eye.

When he saw that Jiang Taohua's face was very calm and without a trace of joy when she heard the word "Princess", he couldn't help but frown.

He couldn't figure this woman out. Sometimes she was so passionate towards him that he felt she loved him very much.

But sometimes, he felt that this woman was very far away from him, as if she would leave at any time.

This feeling made him feel very bad. Long Jingyan narrowed his eyes and became fierce in his heart.

Once you become his woman, you will be his for the rest of your life, and he will not let her leave him!

In the middle of the night, Jiang Taohua, who was nestled in Long Jingyan's arms, was awakened by the noise outside.

Long Jingyan patted her back and said, "It's okay, sleep peacefully."

His voice was gentle, but his eyes were staring outside with murderous intent.

The rain outside had stopped, leaving only the sound of fighting.

At this moment, two masked assassins in black broke in through the window, waving swords in their hands and coming towards them.

Jiang Taohua clearly felt that the momentum of her people had declined. She looked at the assassins attacking them with an expressionless face, and had no intention of taking action at all.

Long Jingyan is a martial arts expert, and with Long Jingyan around, she was too lazy to take action.

Just as the assassin was coming towards them, Han Sui rushed in with a murderous look on his face and a sword in hand.

Her eyes were covered by a pair of large hands, and she heard the assassin's screams and the sound of heads falling.

Jiang Taohua: ...

In fact, there is no need to cover her eyes, she is not afraid.

After dealing with the assassin, Han Sui was afraid that the assassin's body would scare Jiang Taohua, so he was considerate enough to use the corpse-dissolving water he carried with him to turn the assassin's body into a pool of blood.

After he finished all this, Long Jingyan finally let go of the hand that was covering Jiang Taohua's eyes.

At this time, there was a sound of fierce fighting outside the hall. Jiang Taohua's eyes were full of interest. She hadn't fought for a long time.

Long Jingyan thought he would be frightened when he encountered an assassin trying to kill Jiang Taohua, but he found that the woman in his arms was looking outside with bright eyes and an interested look.

This woman! Long Jingyan could no longer find words to describe Jiang Taohua. Normally, women would be terrified when they saw an assassin.

But this woman remained calm and looked outside with interest in her eyes. This woman is really brave!

Soon, the fighting outside stopped. Han Sui walked in and said to Long Jingyan, "Master, all the assassins outside are dead. They were assassins who took poison before coming. We didn't leave any of them alive, and we didn't find anything on them."

"Yeah." Long Jingyan responded nonchalantly, not surprised.

After the assassination, Long Jingyan was in no mood to stay in the ruined temple and ordered his men to continue on their journey.

The carriage started moving again, and Jiang Taohua soon fell asleep as the carriage drove smoothly.

But Long Jingyan was not sleepy at all, wondering who sent the assassin to kill him?

Next, the assassinations came fiercely and frequently, one after another. In just three days, they encountered three assassination attempts.

Those who came were all death warriors. Han Sui and others were all highly skilled in martial arts, and the death warriors could not get any good results from them.

However, they did not leave any survivors, as all the assassins committed suicide after failing in their mission.

That night, before dark, the group arrived at an inn less than half a mile away from the official road to stay overnight. The inn covered a large area and was surrounded by woods.

When they arrived at the inn, there were already several tables of guests dressed in civilian clothes.

"Sir, would you like to stay in the hotel or have a meal?" The waiter came up to greet him warmly and asked with a bow.

"I want both." Han Sui said, "Bring up the best food you have."

"Okay." The waiter responded respectfully, then quickly went to prepare the meal while wiping the rag.

While waiting for the food to be served, Jiang Taohua, Long Jingyan and his group were all lost in thought.

They all discovered that something was wrong with this inn. All the guests in this inn were dressed in civilian clothes.

But each of them had bulging tendons, protruding temples, and long breaths. It was obvious at a glance that they were masters of martial arts.

The food was served quickly.

"Sir, please enjoy your meal." The waiter said and was about to leave.

"Wait." Jiang Taohua stopped him.

"Sir, do you have any instructions?" The waiter asked nervously, holding the tray in his hand to his chest, his body trembling involuntarily.

"Who told you to poison?" Jiang Taohua asked coldly.

Long Jingyan was surprised to see Jiang Taohua discover that the food was poisoned. The poison in the food was colorless and odorless, and it would be difficult for ordinary people to detect. But this woman found it at a glance. This woman was far more... than he had imagined...

"Sir, sir, what...what did you say? I...I don't understand." The waiter stuttered, his body shaking like a sieve. Anyone could see that something was wrong.

"It's okay if you don't understand." Jiang Taohua looked willing to negotiate, then turned to Han Sui and said, "Han Sui, give him some exercise."

"Yes, Miss Jiang."

Han Sui responded respectfully, then walked up to the waiter with his hands clasped together, looking like he was about to hit someone.

"Sir, please spare my life..." The waiter knelt on the ground in fear, crying, "It's not me who wants to murder you, it's them..."

Before the waiter could finish his words, all the customers in the store, who were dressed in civilian clothes, took out the swords hidden under the table, drew their weapons, and quickly attacked Long Jingyan and his group.

Han Sui and the others had already prepared themselves for this. They quickly drew their swords and went forward to fight with them.

A fierce fight broke out in the inn, and Long Jingyan held Jiang Taohua in his arms.
