Jiang Yi was feeling very proud of himself for getting the beauty he had coveted for a long time, and he completely let down his guard.
He got up contentedly, turned over and got out of bed, picked up the clothes on the floor and put them on casually, with a smile of lingering satisfaction on his lips.
"Um!"
Suddenly, Jiang Yi felt his body stiffen and he couldn't move at all.
Chu Xiaolian had already opened up the acupuncture points. She quietly walked behind Jiang Yi and subdued him, then walked around to his front with a dagger in hand.
The ferocity and resentment in her eyes made Jiang Yi shiver involuntarily.
"You... Impossible... You can't possibly open the acupuncture points so quickly..."
There were tears in Chu Xiaolian's eyes. She didn't want to say anything more to Jiang Yi and stabbed Jiang Yi with the dagger.
"etc."
Jiang Yi hurriedly stopped him and looked up at Chu Xiaolian. "As the saying goes, one night of marriage brings a hundred nights of love. I am your man, are you really willing to kill me? If I die, what will you do in the future?"
Chu Xiaolian didn't say anything, just stared at Jiang Yi in a daze.
Seeing this, Jiang Yi felt a glimmer of hope in his heart.
"Xiao Lian, you want to believe me. I really like you. Put down the dagger, and I will love you again. I will take you far away, and from now on we will... um..."
Chu Xiaolian covered Jiang Yi's mouth and stabbed the dagger into Jiang Yi's chest.
The pain made Jiang Yi open his eyes wide. He wanted to shout and resist, but he was completely powerless.
Chu Xiaolian pulled the dagger out of Jiang Yihai's chest, and blood gushed out.
She was very measured in her attack, and this knife would not kill Jiang Yi immediately. Just as she was about to stab the second time, the sound of fighting was heard outside the door.
Chu Xiaolian pushed Jiang Yi away. Through the gap in the window, he saw a group of men in black fighting with the people from the branch.
Who are these people...?
She didn't have time to think about it, she only knew that it was a good opportunity to save Mu Jingrui during the chaos.
Chu Xiaolian quickly put on her clothes, picked up the key to the water dungeon from the ground and climbed out the window.
All the guards seemed to be attracted by the sound of fighting. She easily reached the dungeon and knocked out the few guards.
“Brother Mu, wake up…” Chu Xiaolian patted Mu Jingrui’s cheek, “Wake up quickly, I’ll save you…”
Mu Jingrui opened his eyes dazedly and saw Chu Xiaolian squatting beside him. He used up his last bit of strength to turn his head to the side.
"I know you're mad at me. I'll explain it to you later."
Chu Xiaolian quickly opened the chain, carried Mu Jingrui on her back and walked out.
Leaning on the woman's thin shoulders, Mu Jingrui suddenly felt uncomfortable and helpless.
Chu Xiaolian was familiar with everything here, and she took Mu Jingrui and escaped from the branch from the backyard.
She put Mu Jingrui on the horse's back and galloped all the way.
She knew that it wouldn't be long before the people from the Soul Capture Hall would catch up with her, so after some thought she decided to send Mu Jingrui back to the capital.
Only by returning to his own territory can he be safe.
It was not until dawn that Chu Xiaolian stopped by a stream.
She checked Mu Jingrui's wounds. If he didn't get treatment, he might not be able to survive and return to the capital.
"I won't let anything happen to you."
Chu Xiaolian suppressed her sadness and decided to take the risk of taking Mu Jingrui into the town to find a doctor.
She found a clinic, and it was already afternoon when the doctor finished bandaging Mu Jingrui's wound.
Mu Jingrui had a high fever, and Chu Xiaolian was worried that forcing him to go on the road would cost him his life, so she had to keep him for the time being.
The night was as dark as ink. Chu Xiaolian stayed by Mu Jingrui's bed, unwilling to take her eyes off him for a moment.
She stretched out her hand cautiously, wanting to stroke Mu Jingrui's face, but pulled it back tremblingly.
When she thought of her body that had been defiled by Jiang Yi, she felt that she was very dirty and not even worthy of touching Mu Jingrui.
However……
Chu Xiaolian stared blankly at the unconscious Mu Jingrui. She discovered sadly that perhaps she would never have the chance to be alone with him again.
This life is the only one.
Chu Xiaolian felt a wave of sadness in her heart. She hesitated for a long time, but finally mustered up the courage and slowly moved towards Mu Jingrui's lips.
"What are you doing?"
Mu Jingrui suddenly woke up, which scared Chu Xiaolian.
She took a few steps back in embarrassment, leaning against the table, at a loss as to what to do.
"I...I just wanted to...I..."
Chu Xiaolian couldn't utter a complete sentence. She gritted her teeth, turned around and ran out.
Mu Jingrui was also stunned.
Did Chu Xiaolian want to... kiss him just now?
His mind went blank for a moment.
He couldn't fall asleep anymore, so he barely supported himself and sat up. He just moved slightly, and the wounds all over his body felt a heart-wrenching pain.
“Tsk!”
Mu Jingrui took a deep breath, which made him more sober.
He is now out of the control of the Soul Capture Hall. He doesn't know how many days have passed. The only thing he is sure of is that he is too late to catch up with Xiao Zhenting.
What should I do?
"They are chasing us, hurry up."
Chu Xiaolian rushed in again, picked up the naked Mu Jingrui and was about to run away.
Mu Jingrui looked at the woman and didn't have time to say a word. He just ran a few steps and fainted.
Chu Xiaolian carried Mu Jingrui on her back, dodged the assassins from the Soul-Catching Hall, and hid in the woods outside the town.
She knew the Soul Taker's style of work very well. If she wanted them to stop chasing her, she had to kill them.
Chu Xiaolian placed Mu Jingrui in a small hole, found some branches and hay to cover him, and then went towards the killers.
She was the head of the Soul Capture Hall, so those killers were somewhat afraid of her. She took the initiative and killed dozens of people at once.
"Chu Xiaolian."
Jiang Yi rushed over with a large number of troops and surrounded Chu Xiaolian.
His face was a little pale, and his steps were unsteady. He glared at Chu Xiaolian fiercely. "You traitor, I will arrest you today and let the old hall master teach you a lesson."
"You bastard, you don't deserve it."
Chu Xiaolian was furious. Even if it cost her life, she would kill Jiang Yi first.
She rushed forward with her sword raised. Jiang Yi waved his arm lightly, and sixteen killers rushed over and surrounded her with a fishing net formation.
Chu Xiaolian was aware of the power of the fishing net array and did not dare to be careless at all.
She was concentrating on dealing with the fishing net array. Jiang Yi seized the opportunity and shot three hidden weapons. She dodged two of them, but the other one hit her back. She immediately felt sore all over and fell to the ground powerlessly.
"Tell me, where is Mu Jingrui?" Jiang Yi stepped forward and stepped on Chu Xiaolian's chest, asking harshly.
Chu Xiaolian smiled lightly and looked at Jiang Yi with contempt.
Jiang Yi squatted down and slapped Chu Xiaolian twice on the face.
Chu Xiaolian just felt her head buzzing.
Before she completely fainted, she seemed to see Mu Jingrui walking towards her through her blurred vision.
