In mid-air, Yan Ci's figure was floating like a ghost, his movements were smooth and graceful, as if he was dancing. He held the sword tightly in his hand, and his wrist turned gently, creating a gorgeous sword flower. The sword flower bloomed in the air, like a blooming snow lotus, exuding a cold and deadly breath.

As the sword danced, Yan Ci's figure instantly passed by the three killers.

The moment he passed by, sword lights flashed and sword shadows flew. Only a few shrill screams were heard, and the three killers fell to the ground one after another, unable to move.

Feng Jiuyan stared at Yan Ci with her eyes wide open, her mouth opened so wide that an egg could almost fit in. Her face was full of disbelief, and she was amazed.

She never imagined that Yan Ci's martial arts skills were so powerful!

Feng Jiuyan's brain was working rapidly at this moment, and countless thoughts flashed through her mind. A sharp light flashed in her eyes, which was her firm determination after careful consideration.

She secretly made a decision in her heart that unless it came to a critical moment, she would save Yan Ci's life for the time being.

After all, on this road of exile, the number of assassins who came to hunt down their family was large, and it was only increasing.

Yan Ci's martial arts skills were so strong that they could be called superb. If she could use his power to protect her family, she would no longer have to worry about the safety of her mother, brother, and Song Chen and his sister.

She knew very well that on this dangerous road of exile, having a master like Yan Ci to help would provide an extra layer of security. She believed that as long as she made good use of Yan Ci's abilities, she would be able to help her family get through this difficult time safely.

However, she also knew that Yan Ci was a double-edged sword, and the matter still needed to be considered carefully.

Feng Jiuyan suppressed the thoughts in his mind for the time being.

Sure enough, after careful inspection, she found that the inside of the wrists of these killers all had a familiar pattern, which was the symbol of the wolf totem. Seeing this pattern, Feng Jiuyan felt a surge of anger in her heart.

It’s Mr. Mo’s men again!

Obviously, Mr. Mo couldn't hold back any longer. He couldn't wait any longer based on the information Meng Liang had found out. That was why he sent these assassins so eagerly to try to force them to surrender!

Yan Ci also slowly squatted down and carefully examined the bodies of these killers. When his eyes fell on the wolf totems on the wrists of the killers, a thick chill instantly filled his originally lowered eyes, and that chill seemed to freeze everything.

Oh, it’s his men again!

At this moment, a rustling sound suddenly came from the forest, breaking the original tranquility. The sound came from far away and gradually became clearer.

Yan Ci's expression suddenly turned stern. He put away the mocking sneer on his lips and his eyes became extremely serious. He quickly walked to Feng Jiuyan and grabbed her arm.

"Get out of here quickly, Feng Jiuyan! The killer's reinforcements have arrived!" There was a hint of urgency and nervousness in Yan Ci's voice, and his eyes were fixed on Feng Jiuyan, as if he wanted to see through her.

"Not now!" Feng Jiuyan refused bluntly. She held the nail gun tightly in her hand, and her fingers turned white from the force.

She couldn't leave yet, she had to lure all the killers away! That way her mother and brother wouldn't be in danger!

"Now is not the time to show off. If we don't leave now, it will be too late. They have come in large numbers this time, and each of them is highly skilled in martial arts. If the two of us meet them, I'm afraid we will not get any good results!" Yan Ci frowned and said sternly.

"I'm not leaving. If you want to leave, you go first. I want to lure all these killers away so that my mother and brother won't be targeted by these killers! Come on, you go first!" Feng Jiuyan said, and stretched out her hand to push Yan Ci.

Listening to the noise coming from the woods, Feng Jiuyan was very clear in his mind, judging from the sound alone, the killers who came this time were not only numerous, but also extremely skilled.

She hoped Yan Ci could leave quickly. This was definitely not because she was trying to be brave, nor was it because she was worried about getting him into trouble. Instead, she sincerely did not want Yan Ci to stay by her side.

Because she knew that what was coming would be an extremely difficult battle.

As long as Yan Ci is not by her side and holding her back, even if she is in danger later, she can use her own space to protect herself.

As long as she can enter the space, those killers can't do anything to her.

Thinking of this, Feng Jiuyan's eyes became extremely sincere. She looked straight at Yan Ci and said, "Yan Ci, I understand that you came here to save me. But this time, you should leave first. I have the ability to protect myself. I really don't want you to get hurt because of me."

Go, go quickly, leave her behind without hesitation!

She really wouldn't mind!

Feng Jiuyan stared at Yan Ci with her watery fox eyes.

After listening to Feng Jiuyan's words, Yan Ci couldn't help but fall into a brief daze. At that moment, countless thoughts surged in his mind, and his thoughts involuntarily drifted to his past.

Ever since he could remember, he had lost his father forever.

At that time, he was still young. Under the desperate protection of his servants, he and his mother set out on the journey to Youzhou overnight under the cover of darkness.

The hardships and fears along the way are still deeply engraved in his heart.

If time could go back, if he had the chance to choose again, if he was by his father's side when the accident happened, he would definitely risk his life without hesitation, even if it cost him anything, to save his father.

Because he knew very well that only with his father around, his mother would not be immersed in sorrow and pain all day long, would not shed tears every night, and would not gradually wither in the endless longing and sorrow.

Their family should have been a happy and harmonious one, but it was torn apart by the tricks of fate. This is the eternal pain in his heart and the regret that he can never let go.

Feng Jiuyan's act of risking his life to protect his mother deeply touched the softest corner of his heart.

How could he abandon Feng Jiuyan just like that?

Yan Ci felt compassion.

Since Feng Jiuyan wants to use him to lure away the killer, he will accompany her on this trip!

At this moment, Yan Ci keenly noticed that the movements of the killers coming from his ears were becoming clearer and closer.
