"Um."
Yang Niannian nodded gently, without denying it.
The girl continued, "Xiao Yu is a very good older brother to me. He has helped my family many times... and he has also saved my life and my older brother's life!"
"I don't want Brother Xiao Yu to get into trouble because of me. If I could, I would rather die myself than be a burden to him!"
The girl's tone was firm, and as she spoke, her bright eyes remained fixed on Xiao Yu, never looking away.
"This idiot, so many people actually like him!"
Jin Mulan silently thought to herself that she called Xiao Yu a fool because she was angry out of jealousy.
Seeing the girl's worried expression, Jin Mulan finally spoke up, saying, "Don't worry, Xiao Yu will be fine."
No one can hurt Xiao Yu in front of him!
Even if Duke Liu came, it wouldn't work!
Jin Mulan already knows the whole story, and Da Sha and Yang Niannian are witnesses...
Under such circumstances, even if Xiao Yu beheads Liu Yunfei in the street, Jin Mulan can still protect Xiao Yu!
As for Duke Liu, in order to expose himself, he could only shift all the blame onto Liu Yunfei and make Liu Yunfei the scapegoat.
"If Duke Liu dares to cause trouble, I will take this matter to His Majesty."
Jin Mulan has made her decision.
"Ahhh!!"
A piercing scream rang out.
Xiao Yu severed Liu Yunfei's arm with a single stroke, severing his entire right arm at the shoulder!
Crimson blood spurted out, staining half of Liu Yunfei's face red, his expression contorted in agony.
"Aaaaah! I'm going to kill you! I'm going to kill you!"
Liu Yunfei's body convulsed in pain, and he roared loudly until his voice was hoarse.
"Sorry, you don't have a chance."
Holding the blood-stained knife, Xiao Yu said coldly, "I cut off your arm not because I was afraid to kill you, but because I didn't want you to die in such agony!"
"Wh...what?"
Liu Yunfei was stunned, staring at Xiao Yu in disbelief.
In that instant, he seemed to forget the pain!
This idiot doesn't seem to be joking; would he really dare to kill himself?
Before Liu Yunfei could think any further, Xiao Yu slashed down with his sword again!
"How dare you... My uncle is a national..."
Whoosh!
With a flash of light, a bloody head was severed.
Just now, Liu Yunfei ordered his soldiers to cut off Xiao Yu's arm, so Xiao Yu will let him taste the pain of having his arm cut off first!
He didn't want Da Sha to live, so Xiao Yu decided to let him die!
"You...you killed him!"
Standing at a distance, Lin's mother was so frightened by what she saw that her legs went weak and she sat down on the ground.
At this moment, she was so frightened that she was completely disoriented, and her body was trembling uncontrollably.
This fool... no, at this moment, Xiao Yu was no longer a fool in Lin's mother's eyes, but a demon, a lawless murderous demon!
While feeling fearful, she was also relieved that she hadn't angered Xiao Yu before. Would he kill her too?
The more Lin's mother thought about it, the more frightened she became. She wanted to escape, but her legs wouldn't obey her commands, and she had no strength at all.
"Whoosh!!"
The moment Liu Yunfei's head was severed, all the soldiers pointed their knives at Xiao Yu.
The way they looked at Xiao Yu was as if they were looking at a demon.
"He actually killed Duke Liu's own nephew!"
"How dare he do that?"
"Duke Liu will be here soon..."
Everyone's head throbbed as if struck by lightning, their minds going completely blank.
However... as shocked as they were, they absolutely could not let Xiao Yu go, otherwise, when Duke Liu arrived and was furious, they would be implicated.
"ah!"
Yang Niannian covered her eyes in fright.
"Second...Second Idiot..."
Even Da Sha was stunned.
Although Da Sha was brave enough to confront Liu Yunfei and the others with a stick and even hit them on the head with the stick, in Da Sha's mind, this was assault!
Killing someone directly with a knife, severing their head, would have a very strong impact on Da Sha!
For Jin Mulan, however, such a small scene was nothing compared to her extensive battlefield experience.
Jin Mulan simply stared coldly at the soldiers; if anyone dared to move, she would strike immediately…
"happy!"
Xiao Yu shouted.
This was certainly not his first time killing someone. As a military doctor, he had been on the battlefield and had killed the enemy.
That's why when faced with scum like Liu Yunfei, he didn't hesitate to strike without hesitation!
"Um?"
After letting out a triumphant shout, Xiao Yu finally noticed Lin's mother slumped on the ground. This foolish woman was so frightened that she didn't even know how to run away.
"Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"
Upon discovering that Xiao Yu was watching her, Lin's mother turned pale with fright, and tears streamed down her face.
"You're no better than me!"
Xiao Yu said coldly.
"Don't kill me, please..."
Upon hearing Xiao Yu's words, Lin's mother rolled her eyes and was so frightened that she fainted.
Just then, the sound of horses' hooves, soldiers marching in unison, and the clatter of armor filled the air. It was Duke Liu arriving with over a hundred soldiers.
Xiao Yu and the others looked in the direction from which the sound came.
The leader was a middle-aged man dressed in brocade robes. He was about forty-five or forty-six years old. He wore a scarlet official robe with a round collar and right-fastening front, embroidered with large floral patterns five inches in diameter, and a turban with outstretched legs, which showed his first-rank dignity.
This man was none other than Duke Liu. He wore a wide, white robe symbolizing his status, a white otter ceremonial staff inlaid with jade on his shoulders, and a gold belt inlaid with jewels around his waist. He rode a fine horse.
"He is Duke Liu Chengjun."
Jin Mulan whispered to Xiao Yu, "Hide behind me, let me and him..."
"Need not."
Xiao Yu shook his head and refused.
He enjoyed being loved by his wife, but he didn't want to rely on her to solve everything.
“If I always hide behind my wife, how can I uphold the name of the Xiao Prince’s Mansion?” Xiao Yu said to Jin Mulan.
"good."
Jin Mulan nodded and said nothing more.
She stood beside Xiao Yu, quietly waiting for Duke Liu.
"General Jin."
Duke Liu reined in his horse, his voice low and unreadable.
"Duke Liu".
Jin Mulan simply replied with three words.
Where is Yunfei?
Liu Guogong said openly.
But just as he finished saying those three words, he saw a bloody head on the ground.
He saw the blood on the ground at first, but assumed it was from an ordinary soldier who had been killed by Xiao Yu, and didn't think much of it...
It was only then that they realized the clothes on the headless corpse on the ground seemed to belong to Liu Yunfei.
This made Duke Liu frown and look at the human head on the ground.
"He's here."
Xiao Yu kicked the bloody human head on the ground, turning the head's features toward Duke Liu so that he could see clearly that Liu Yunfei had been beheaded!
