"Yeah?"
The man in white looked at Shangguan Wanning with a little more appreciation.
At this time, he was already standing in front of Shangguan Wanning. "I think..."
Before the man in white could finish his words, he felt a strong palm wind coming towards him.
He dodged to the side and directed his palm power towards Shangguan Wanning.
The man in white took the opportunity to push Shangguan Wanning.
Shangguan Wanning staggered backwards, a figure flashed by, and she was embraced by a strong arm.
"Brother Yao."
"Are you okay?" Sun Jinyao's concerned tone was filled with a bit of anxiety.
With Sun Jinyao by her side, Shangguan Wanning felt much more at ease.
"I'm fine."
"Let's go." Sun Jinyao took Shangguan Wanning's hand and was about to leave.
The man in white's face suddenly turned gloomy. It was the first time he had seen someone more arrogant and disrespectful than him.
"You seem to ignore me."
"Who said I have to take you seriously?" Sun Jinyao drew out the long sword in his hand and sneered, "I don't want to waste time, let's do it."
The man in white stopped talking, and the folding fan in his hand turned into a weapon that could take someone's life.
Shangguan Wanning watched their fight and her heart ached.
Suddenly, she felt a chill on her neck.
"Don't move."
Shangguan Wanning closed her eyes helplessly.
It seems that I will become a lamb to be slaughtered.
Sun Jinyao found that Shangguan Wanning was being held hostage by a dark-faced man with a knife, so he had no choice but to stop.
"Let her go, come to me if you have any problem."
"Okay." The man in white slapped Sun Jinyao on the chest.
Sun Jinyao was blown away, fell to the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Brother Yao..." Shangguan Wanning wanted to rush over, but was held tightly by the black-faced man.
"Don't hurt her..." Sun Jinyao struggled to get up and looked at the man in white.
The man in white actually admired Sun Jinyao's tenacity.
"Okay," the man in white walked up to Sun Jinyao and patted his face with his folding fan, "Beg me."
"I beg you..."
"Wouldn't it be too insincere to beg for help while standing?"
Shangguan Wanning knew Sun Jinyao very well. His birth and upbringing had given him a sense of pride. How could he just...
"ah!"
Before Shangguan Wanning could finish her thought, the dark-faced man slapped her hard in the face, causing her to stagger a few steps and fall to the ground.
"Ning'er..." Sun Jinyao felt distressed. He took a few steps forward, and the black-faced man put the steel knife on Shangguan Wanning's neck again.
"Brother Yao, I'm fine... Don't put yourself in a difficult position for me."
Shangguan Wanning's words pierced Sun Jinyao's heart like a sharp knife.
"Brother, have you thought it through? The brothers in my village are not vegetarians. This girl is so beautiful..."
The man in white saw Sun Jinyao looking at him with murderous intent.
Slowly, Sun Jinyao knelt down. "She is just a woman who knows nothing. As long as you let her go, my life will be yours."
"Brother Yao, don't... um..." Shangguan Wanning's eyes went dark and she completely lost consciousness.
The man in white called his men and detained Sun Jinyao and Shangguan Wanning separately.
"Boss, how should we deal with them? Should we..."
"Listen, you must personally guard this woman and don't allow any brothers in the village to have any bad ideas. Judging from her clothes, words and deeds, she is definitely not from a humble family, and she even knows the Turkic princess..."
"I understand. Don't worry, Boss. As long as I am here, I will ensure that the girl is safe." The dark-faced man hesitated for a moment and asked, "Then...what about the Turkic princess?"
"Humph, the mountain is heavily guarded with traps and traps. I don't believe the two of them can escape. Wait until they are exhausted, and then let the brothers search the mountain."
"Okay." The dark-faced man bent down, carried Shangguan Wanning on his shoulders, and walked away humming an out-of-tune folk song.
The sky gradually brightened and the path ahead began to become clear.
Huo Gang's wound kept bleeding, and Ge Shuyan couldn't help but worry as he saw him getting weaker and weaker.
They walked for a whole night but couldn't get out of the woods. During the walk, they encountered many traps and ambushes. They were almost dead.
Huo Gang had been trying his best to protect her. She couldn't help but admire his chivalrous spirit.
"Brother Huo, let's take a break." Ge Shuyan's voice was trembling as he watched Huo Gang's face become increasingly worse.
Huo Gang raised his head and looked at the sky, but his vision was blurry.
"No... they will catch up..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huo Gang's legs went limp and he fell to the ground.
"Even if they catch up with us, I... I will accept it..." Ge Shuyan used all his strength to help Huo Gang up and supported him under a big tree.
"Brother Huo, we are not close friends. Why did you save me?"
Huo Gang looked at Ge Shuyan and forced a smile. "Actually... I don't know. I just have to save him if I meet him... My master said that martial artists should cultivate their morals first and then their martial arts..."
Ge Shuyan looked at Huo Gang, thinking of the few times they had met, and ripples began to form in his heart.
At this time, faint footsteps were heard in the distance.
"They should be nearby, searching everywhere."
Ge Shuyan's expression suddenly changed.
"Someone is chasing us, let's go..."
"I really can't do it anymore, Princess, please go by yourself..."
"No, we must go together. Even if I die here, I will not abandon you."
As Ge Shuyan said this, he carried Huo Gang on his back.
She kept running forward with gritted teeth, the footsteps of the pursuers were getting closer and closer. If she continued forward, she would definitely be caught up.
Ge Shuyan looked around anxiously and saw a pool of water nearby. She gritted her teeth and jumped in with Huo Gang.
When the cold water flooded their bodies, the whole world seemed to become quiet.
Ge Shuyan held Huo Gang's hand tightly. She raised her head and vaguely saw several blurry figures circling nearby.
Suddenly, Huo Gang's body began to sink.
Ge Shuyan was horrified. She hugged Huo Gang tightly, only to find that he seemed to be unconscious.
If he couldn't hold his breath, he would drown.
Ge Shuyan hesitated slightly, then slowly covered Huo Gang's lips.
After a long time, the pursuers went away and the two men emerged from the water. Huo Gang stared at Ge Shuyan blankly and was speechless for a moment.
"Let's go quickly, otherwise..." Ge Shuyan climbed the mountain to the pool and pulled Huo Gang out again.
As the two set off again, no one spoke.
Before they had gone far, they were surrounded by another group of searching bandits.
"Now, let's see where you can run to."
