Yan Shengxiao's voice, hidden beneath his mask, was deep and mysterious, giving him the air of a reclusive master, though no one here would likely appreciate it.
"Where did you take Cen Xi?"
Jun Jianchou didn't care whether the other party wanted to settle scores with him or not; he only wanted to know one thing: was Cen Xi in danger?
"Looks like you really are a romantic, too bad the other person doesn't even notice you! Want to know? Then beat me first, but don't embarrass your senior brother, he should be alright by now!"
Yan Shengxiao's tone was contemptuous and arrogant, even tinged with sarcasm, but the young man opposite him didn't take the bait at all and drew his sword to stab him.
Jun Jianchou was able to draw his bow and arrow and seriously injure his opponent, so he must have some skill. Therefore, the two fought fiercely for a short time, causing the mountains and forests to tremble, birds and beasts to fly, and even the subordinates brought by Yan Shengxiao were affected.
However, Yan Shengxiao and Xiao Qiliang are ultimately two different people, and the closer it gets to the end, the more difficult it becomes for Jun Jianchou to deal with them.
But he was obsessed with Cen Xi, so the power he unleashed at the end was greater. After fighting for a whole day, the three of them barely maintained a balance.
Feng Qin and You He stood not far away watching the battle. Both of them had to admire their master Jun Jianchou, their rival in love, for he was not at a disadvantage. After all, although he was slightly inferior in martial arts, he was not incapable of fighting.
"Do you think we should help?"
Feng Qin raised an eyebrow and glanced at You He, asking in a slightly teasing tone.
"You stay here and watch. If Young Master Jun is at a disadvantage, then lend a hand. I'll go find the mistress."
You responded with a light-footed movement and headed deep into the mountains.
"Hey, my martial arts skills are better than yours. I should be the one going to find the mistress!"
This guy is always stealing credit. Feng Qin thinks he's far less cunning than him. This guy, everyone knows who the master cares about most, yet he doesn't even give him a chance and makes the decision for him.
However, the young master will be here soon. It doesn't matter whether he tries to take credit or not. I just hope that his mistress can hold on a little longer, so that her young master can come to rescue her personally.
The next day, as darkness fell, Shen Jinchen rode his black horse into the vast night of Huo City. Not long after he arrived, Wen Qiheng, who was overseeing the country in the capital, also hurried here on horseback.
Shen Jinchen was somewhat surprised when he saw him.
"Why did you come along too?"
“My wife was also kidnapped two weeks ago.”
Wen Qiheng had no martial arts skills, but he was able to ride at top speed because he was afraid that something might happen to Jun Xiaoqiao. Now that he had finally arrived, he plopped down on the threshold of the inn and couldn't get up.
"They were also tied up here?"
Shen Jinchen helped him up and asked.
"Yes, I used the guiding butterfly you gave me to perform a shadow-tracking spell. She's in this direction, and I'm feeling really uneasy. Something might have really happened to her."
Wen Qiheng never imagined that his desire for revenge would lead to that person unknowingly falling into his heart. Now, whenever she is in danger, he is willing to risk his life to save her.
"I am also uneasy. Let's go! We'll continue the pursuit."
The closer Shen Jinchen got to Lingshan, the more acutely he felt that something might have happened to Cen Xi.
"Walk!"
Despite being exhausted, Wen Qiheng got up and stepped out the door.
Since she did this, Shen Jinchen reached out and grabbed him around the waist, put him on his horse, and rode off towards Lingshan.
When Cen Xi woke up again, she felt her strength draining away and her lower abdomen aching more and more. It felt like the baby in her belly was about to fall out. She was only three months pregnant, and this was definitely not childbirth. She knew very well that her compromise back then was ultimately useless and the child was going to leave her.
My own energy and spirit have been declining rapidly since I entered the battle yesterday.
She had a feeling, as if her soul was burning on fire, as if she were suffering endless torment.
Meanwhile, the pregnant women at the other ten key locations were being fed very well. The people there were afraid that the women had lost too much blood, so they kept feeding them blood-replenishing foods.
After they finish eating, their blood is drained every hour and directed to a ditch.
Jun Xiaoqiao felt that if she continued to bleed, she might collapse from exhaustion, but after the other party administered a strong dose of medicine, she felt that she could manage again.
Each time they bled, Cen Xi, who was at the center of the formation, felt her life points decreasing and her soul being imprisoned deeper and deeper.
At this moment, she finally understood what the other party was trying to do. He wanted to shatter her soul so that she could never be reincarnated or threaten him in any future life.
This is quite a grand gesture. The closer Cen Xi got to death, the more she wanted to die knowing the truth.
What kind of suppression could she possibly have over that other party would resort to such methods to deal with her?
I've been reduced to ashes. It seems I won't even have a chance to be reincarnated in my next life. Buddha, I have no grudge against you, so why did you bring me here?
After a helpless sigh, Cen Xi accepted reality. She was all alone in this world, and death would be the end of it all.
There's nothing she can do about not being able to reincarnate; isn't living just a means to die? Heaven has never been kind to her, so what's the point of her living?
It doesn't matter if she dies, I just hope that nothing happens to the pregnant women she brought to the mountains. She has really dragged Jun Xiaoqiao down with her this time.
The battle on the mountain had been going on for two days and one night. Unfortunately, Jun Jianchou had tried his best but failed to kill the two men. The longer it dragged on, the more anxious he became.
He had a hunch that something might really have happened to Cen Xi.
"Zhu Yanniang, save her! Quickly, save Cen Xi!"
Jun Jianchou, while trying to hold on, shouted to Zhu Yanniang beside him.
"If you can't hold on any longer, what will happen if I leave? Besides, I don't even know where Cen Xi is."
Zhu Yanniang was also struggling to resist, but her beloved man was here, and she would not hesitate to die for him.
Zhu Yanniang is a woman who loves when she loves and hates when she hates. Once she has fallen in love, she will give everything for the other person, just as she did when she took revenge on those unfaithful men.
Having said that, Jun Jianchou immediately shut her mouth. Yes, she didn't know where Cen Xi was either, so how could she rescue her?
Just as they were feeling disheartened, a burst of energy suddenly came from afar, heading straight for Yan Shengxiao and Xiao Qiliang.
The two men were just as exhausted as Jun Jianchou. As soon as Shen Jinchen joined the fray, the opposing forces were unable to hold on and fell to the ground one after another.
Upon seeing the newcomer, Yan Shengxiao's pupils contracted, and he tried to run away, but Shen Jinchen was a step faster and used his unique acupoint striking technique to quickly immobilize the two of them.
Seeing that Shen Jinchen had subdued the two men in one move, Jun Jianchou breathed a sigh of relief and said to Shen Jinchen:
"Cen Xi is very likely in these mountains. You must go and save her quickly; something may have happened to her."
After listening to his words, Shen Jinchen didn't say a word. He quickly disappeared into the depths of the mountains. His heart was growing increasingly anxious, which meant that Cen Xi was really in trouble.
