At Liu Lin's command, a dense swarm of arrows flew towards the carriage like crows.

The Qingyu Guards and Dark Guards protecting Xiao Xuan quickly separated the carriage from the arrows, forming a human barrier.

"Your Highness, hurry! We'll hold these thieves off!"

Qingying shouted at Xiao Xuan, drew her whip and lashed it hard on Xiao Xuan's horse. Then she stood still and joined the group protecting Ning Yin.

There were about fifty or sixty of them, and they were not afraid of the army swarming up from Shen Yun's side.

In an instant, the sound of longswords snapping against arrows echoed through the night sky, and people could be seen falling from their horses, each wounded by multiple swords.

While desperately resisting, Qingying looked back to check the carriage. Fortunately, the carriage was getting further and further away, which made Qingying feel inexplicably relieved. Even if they were all wiped out today, they would protect His Highness and His Majesty.

"Soldiers, don't be afraid! His Highness will take good care of his family when he returns! Our duty is to protect His Highness and His Majesty!"

"Yes, Commander Qingying!"

The remaining dozens of men, some of whom were already seriously injured, still held tightly to the reins, desperately trying to block the arrows that rained down like cow's hair.

At that moment, with a whoosh, Qingying's left scapula was struck by an arrow, the force of which was so great that it pierced through his shoulder.

His body swayed slightly, but his right hand continued moving without stopping.

Over here, Liu Lin ordered his men to light torches, and only then could he see the situation clearly. He suddenly let out a cold laugh and said to Shen Yun beside him, "General Shen, I'll take the credit this time. Everyone, listen to my orders, speed up and capture the Crown Prince of Daqi alive!"

Upon hearing this, the group was overjoyed. Imagining the glory and promotion they would receive after capturing Xiao Xuan, they mustered all their strength and rode their horses away at breakneck speed!
