The secret guards quickly surrounded him, and Duota was blocked for a moment. His eyes were red as he watched Huo Yan rush out on horseback. The anger on his face almost made him lose his mind.
He suddenly bent his bow and drew his arrow, gritted his teeth and aimed it at Huo Yan's back.
The long arrow shot out from the air, chasing after him with deadly murderous intent.
Sensing the sound of breaking wind behind him, Huo Yan suddenly turned sideways, pulled the reins with both hands, and instantly pressed Yuan Zhao's body down, protecting her against his chest.
The long arrow whizzed past the two men's necks, bringing up a gust of cold wind, and pierced straight into the tree trunk in front of them.
There was a cliff ahead, and the horse was so frightened that it almost spun around, which saved it from falling.
But at this moment, Huo Yan suddenly turned around, the cold light in his eyes faded away in an instant, replaced by a deep fear.
“Zhizhi!”
His eyes followed Yuan Zhizhi who fell from the horse, and the reins in his hand suddenly tightened.
Yuan Zhao heard his cry and turned around to see Yuan Zhizhi, who was wrapped up, falling straight down.
“Zhizhi!!!”
Yuan Zhizhi stared with wide eyes, a look of confusion on her face.
But she soon realized that she was falling to her limit and cried out:
Help! Help!
[Someone come and save me! Save me! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!]
Oh my god! Zhizhi doesn't want to poop!
[Little birds! Xiaobai! Where are you all?!]
[Ahhhhhh! Who can fly?! Anyone who can fly, come here!]
Yuan Zhao and Huo Yan almost stopped breathing, but fortunately, the next moment, an eagle flew into the sky and swooped down from the cliff.
Yuan Zhizhi fell on the eagle's back.
With a loud eagle cry, the eagle caught Zhizhi and flew away with her.
After confirming that Yuan Zhizhi was fine, Huo Yan and Yuan Zhao came to their senses.
The Eagle Guards and Huo Yan's men were already fighting each other. The sounds of swords clashing came one after another, mixed with roars and screams, tearing the silence of the night.
There were blazing flames all around, billowing smoke engulfing the dark shadows of the mountains and forests, and tongues of flame licking the sky, as if they were going to burn up the entire night.
Qingzhi rode on a horse, waved her hand forward, and said in a hurried voice: "This way! Follow me!"
She led them through the chaos, the sound of horse hooves was rapid and messy, Yuan Zhao gripped the reins tightly, feeling like his heart was about to jump out of his chest.
Finally, they broke out of the encirclement, and the horses stepped onto the grass at the foot of the mountain and immediately galloped out like an arrow.
The night wind blew in with the fragrance of grass and trees, and the only sound in his ears was the rapid rhythm of horse hooves, but Yuan Zhao's heart was still restless.
She couldn't help but look back, her gaze passed through the flying dust and fell behind her. The top of the mountain was already red.
The flames illuminated half the sky, like a giant beast devouring the entire Chaoyuan Garden.
There seemed to be a figure standing there.
His figure was tall and straight, his robes fluttering slightly in the wind, his outline blurred yet clear by the flames.
He didn't catch up, but just stood there, watching the direction they left.
That look was like a mark deeply engraved in the firelight.
Yuan Zhao's heart suddenly tightened, his throat felt slightly blocked, but he didn't speak.
Her vision suddenly blurred, and a trace of blood seeped from her tightly bitten lips.
She didn't dare look back, so she held the reins tightly and urged the horse forward.
Chaoyuan gradually walked away behind her, and was finally completely engulfed by flames and thick smoke, along with the unfinished past, turning into a wisp of ember in the night.
The night wind blew by, carrying with it the residual heat of a burnt-out flame, stinging her face and making it feel slightly hot.
…
Yuan Zhizhi pressed her whole body against the eagle's back, her hair flying all over the place, and her little hands tightly grasping the feathers on the eagle's back.
Her voice has never stopped:
[Wakawaka, fly slower, slower... Zhizhi is scared! ]
[Lower, ball! Fly lower! Zhizhi is afraid of heights!]
【The wind roars! 】
[Oh my god…it’s a bit weird down there…]
"Eagle, eagle, where are we going? Take Zhizhi to find her mother!"
…
The eagle let out a long cry and flew away with Yuan Zhizhi to an unknown place.
Yuan Zhizhi didn't know where the eagle came from.
But since it saved her, she might as well treat it as her "eagle".
But as they were flying, Yuan Zhizhi realized that something was wrong.
The sky gradually brightened, but the direction the eagle was flying was exactly opposite to the direction of the rising sun.
First, we flew over a large grassland, then over a river, and then looking into the distance, we could see yellow sand in the air.
Yuan Zhizhi looked at it and felt that this seemed to be getting further and further away from great success...
[Good eagle, don't fly over there... Let's get fat!]
[Don't fly! Go back!]
[If we fly any further, our mother won't be able to find us! ]
After Yuan Zhizhi's "constant persuasion", the eagle finally turned its head.
After flying for an unknown amount of time, Yuan Zhizhi saw a city, and she was so excited that she almost climbed up from the eagle's back.
[Yes, yes, yes! This is it! Let’s land here!]
…
After a night of searching in Xiaoyue City, the Eagle Guards gradually dispersed at dawn.
The searchers also checked the palace, which made Jing Yang unable to sleep well all night and he was in a bad mood the whole day.
She pulled Xuezhu and wandered around the street boredly, thinking that Helian Yu had been gone for a while and wondered how he was doing now.
Now that something has happened to the Helian family, her father no longer mentions her marriage to Helian Yu, and has even started looking for men from other families.
