Chapter 257: Saving Life is Important
Su Xing didn't know where he got the courage from, but he rushed forward without hesitation even though he had never experienced such a scene before.
When the knife was about to pierce Wu Xiao's chest, he used all his strength to push Wu Xiao aside, and he himself fell over because of his unstable footing.
"Looking for death!" the man roared and stabbed towards Su Xing in frustration.
"Be careful!" Although Wu Xiao was not physically strong, his reaction was quick. He didn't have time to get up and rolled on the ground holding Su Xing.
The man missed twice and was so angry that his face was horrible. He shouted directly to the men beside him: "Catch them all!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xing and Wu Xiao were immediately surrounded.
Oh no!
Su Xing cried out inwardly, and a layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.
There was no way Wu Xiao would just surrender, so he fought back again and soon got into a fight with those men.
Su Xing was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He tried to calm down and think of a solution but he couldn't do it.
At this moment, he was pushed by someone, and at the same time, he heard a voice in his ear: "Go back to the barracks and find someone!"
The confused Su Xing suddenly had a direction, but he was still worried and looked back at Wu Xiao.
"Go quickly!" Wu Xiao knew that Su Xing was worried about him, and roared again.
Su Xing didn't dare to delay any longer, he gritted his teeth and ran away.
But he was stopped by the leader before he could run two steps.
"Want to run?" The man pointed the knife at Su Xing, his face fierce: "No way!"
Su Xing was forced to take several steps back. While quickly thinking of a strategy, he secretly glanced in the direction of the military camp out of the corner of his eye.
I wonder if they can hear him if he shouts for help here?
But he didn't have the chance to shout, because Wu Xiao was captured and they had no ability to resist at all.
Su Xing didn't care that he was still being held at knifepoint, and turned around and ran to Wu Xiao: "Your Highness, don't move, let me see."
Wu Xiao looked up at the leader and said in a deep voice: "You want to kill me, it has nothing to do with him, let him go."
The man laughed sinisterly: "That won't work. The Third Prince said that anyone who helps you will be our enemy, and no one will be spared!"
After saying that, he slowly raised the knife, and the sinister smile on his face instantly turned into viciousness.
Su Xing's whole body shuddered, and he clearly felt the chill above his head.
Is he going to die?
No! He can't die!
He is about to marry Ye Linghan, how can he die!
He couldn't bear to leave Ye Linghan. If he died, Ye Linghan would definitely be sad!
"Wait!" Wu Xiao gritted his teeth and said, "I have something Wu Huan wants. If you kill him, Wu Huan will never get it!"
The man paused, looked at Wu Xiao suspiciously, and asked in a deep voice after a moment: "What is it?"
Wu Xiao sneered: "He wants to be something that the emperor will use..."
The man's face tightened and he didn't speak for a long time.
Su Xing's heart was tense, like a guitar string that was stretched to the limit and might break at any time.
He was in a very conflicted mood. He didn't want to die, but he couldn't bear to let Wu Xiao face danger alone.
"I can not kill him." The man hesitated for a long time and finally said: "But I can't let him go either. I want to take you back with me and let His Highness deal with you!"
"No!" Wu Xiao shouted angrily, "Release him immediately!"
The man ignored Wu Xiao and ordered the others: "Take them back!"
Wu Xiao wanted to resist again, but Su Xing stopped him: "Your Highness, saving your life is more important."
Although he was captured again, it was better than losing his life immediately.
As long as you are alive, there is hope.
However, he had implicated Ye Linghan again...
"Su Xing, I'm sorry, I have implicated you." Wu Xiao felt very guilty. Not only did he fail to repay Su Xing for saving his life, but he also implicated Su Xing because of his impulsiveness.
He secretly swore in his heart that he must protect Su Xing.
"Don't say that, Your Highness. The development of things is beyond our expectations." Su Xing didn't like to dwell on the issue of right and wrong because it was meaningless.
Instead of spending time complaining, you might as well think about how to solve this dilemma.
Wu Xiao was shocked by Su Xing's response. He always thought that Su Xing conquered Ye Linghan with his handsome looks and submissive personality.
Only then did he realize that Su Xing's merits were far more than that.
Not only did he step forward to save him in the critical moment, but he also advised him rationally when he was impulsive just now. His broad-mindedness and magnanimity at this moment shocked him.
That sentence popped up in his mind again: Ye Linghan is really lucky.
But this time it's not teasing, but deep jealousy...
This was the first time Su Xing went to a place outside the Night Country after coming to this world. Although it was extremely dangerous, it also surprised him.
The Wu State was a bit like the ethnic minorities in his former world; the people dressed boldly, with bright colors and strange styles, and some even showed their arms and legs.
If he wasn't tied up and locked in a carriage at that moment, he would definitely enjoy it.
Seeing his surprise, Wu Xiao couldn't help but introduce: "Wu is different from the other countries. The people are free and enthusiastic. There are not so many boundaries between men and women. Commoners and nobles often interact..."
Su Xing listened with an expression of disbelief. He was so engrossed in listening that he didn't even dare to blink.
But he soon discovered that Wu Xiao's expression gradually changed from full of pride and pride to unwillingness and indignation: "All this was ruined by the greedy Wu Huan. He has had ambitions since he was a child. He not only wants to be the emperor, but also wants to annex other countries."
"This beast is such a nuisance! I should have killed him long ago!" Wu Xiao gritted his teeth in regret, with deep hatred in his eyes.
Through these words, Su Xing knew that Wu Xiao was also a man who valued friendship and loyalty. He understood Wu Xiao's feelings at the moment because he often couldn't bear to be ruthless at such times.
A moment of weakness may bring great pain in the future.
"Your Highness." Su Xing knew that comforting him was useless, so he changed the subject: "Is that thing you mentioned before true?"
He was afraid that Wu Xiao had made it up, and that he couldn't keep it secret for long. He would be exposed as soon as he saw Wu Huan.
Wu Xiao came back to his senses from his hatred and gave Su Xing a reassuring look: "Don't worry, it's true."
If it weren't for Su Xing, he would rather die than tell the secret.
Su Xing felt relieved. This way he could buy some time to wait for Ye Linghan...
No! He can't always wait for Ye Linghan to save him, he should find a way to save himself!
Seeing Su Xing's serious expression, Wu Xiao thought he was worried, so he immediately comforted him, "Su Xing, don't worry, I will definitely let you leave safely."
Su Xing was deep in thought and was slightly startled when he heard this.
He looked up and exchanged glances with Wu Xiao, then said firmly, "It's not me, it's us."
He would not leave Wu Xiao alone, he couldn't do it.
Wu Xiao refused excitedly: "No! You are implicated by me, saving you is my duty."
Now that the State of Wu has fallen into the hands of Wu Huan, it is already the limit for him to rescue Su Xing.
What's more, Wu Huan would never let him leave alive.
