After the assassins left Ping'an Palace, the emperor and others, as well as the guards, followed closely behind.

Chen Lianhe also followed out.

He walked at the front of the crowd, his face calm as he followed forward step by step. He emanated a coldness that could not be ignored, which was totally inconsistent with his usual temperament.

Xun Nian Nian was not surprised by this side of Chen Lianhe, but it was different for others.

They were more or less surprised.

I was surprised that King He, who was usually gentle and humble, could have such a cold and terrifying side!

But they soon remembered that there were rumors that King He was ruthless and inhumane when handling cases.

It seems that this is true.

The assassin naturally noticed Chen Lianhe. He didn't take him too seriously at first. In his opinion, this man looked like a boiled chicken and was not as threatening as the guards behind him.

But at this moment, feeling the coldness emanating from the other person, he inexplicably felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart.

This is so abnormal!

He is a professionally trained killer!

The amount of blood I have seen and the number of people I have killed are countless.

It has always been the case that others are afraid of him.

He hadn't seen anyone who could make him feel fear from the bottom of his heart for many years.

"You, don't get so close. If you get so close, I will kill her!"

The assassin warned Chen Lianhe coldly.

As he spoke, he increased the force with his hands, and a red mark immediately appeared on Xun Niannian's fair neck.

Chen Lianhe frowned, and the look in his eyes became even colder.

However, he slowed down his pace as he was told.

"Okay, I won't get too close, but you'd better not hurt her again, otherwise I believe you will never see the sun tomorrow!"

I don’t know if he was really shocked by Chen Lianhe’s words, but the assassin’s hand on Xun Niannian’s neck actually relaxed a little.

As soon as he relaxed, Xun Nian Nian began to breathe heavily.

Although it still feels uncomfortable, it is much more comfortable than the feeling of being on the verge of death just now.

"Where's the horse? Why is it so slow?" The assassin glanced around and found that the horse he wanted had not been delivered yet, so he urged impatiently.

At the same time, he held Xun Niannian hostage and continued to retreat towards the palace gate.

Xun Nian Nian's hands were tied behind her back, so she couldn't poison the assassin.

She was about to ask the system for help, but before she could say anything to the system, suddenly, a cold voice came over: "Let her go!"

Along with these three words, a fierce palm wind cut through the air and attacked the assassin at lightning speed.

The assassin sensed the murderous intent and his eyes turned fierce.

The strength in his hands, which had just been relaxed, tightened again.

Xun Niannian only felt a huge pain spreading in her throat, and a strong feeling of suffocation came over her. For a moment, she felt that she could not breathe at all!

Xun Niannian felt like cursing!

Who is it? Why does he suddenly appear at this time?

She had already thought of a solution just now.

Although her hands were tied by the assassin, she can ask the system for help!

She could ask the system to send her a dagger and put it in her hand, or directly send a Lingbo Weibu Pill or a Zhuangli Pill into her mouth.

After taking the Lingbo Weibu Pills or the Zhuangli Pills, wouldn't it only take a few minutes to escape from the assassin's clutches when he is unprepared?

Now, she was interrupted before she could take any action!

Wow, is she really going to die at the hands of this assassin?

“Damn it!”

Just when Xun Niannian’s eyes went dark and she felt like she was about to faint.

She heard a curse.

Then she seemed to see Chen Lianhe's hand move, and something seemed to fly out from his palm. In the blink of an eye, she heard a painful groan from the assassin behind her.

The assassin's hand seemed to be hit by the hidden weapon thrown by Chen Lianhe!

Then, Xun Nian Nian felt that the pressure on her neck disappeared in an instant.

Xun Niannian was delighted, but before she could rejoice, the assassin suddenly had a sharp hidden weapon in his other hand, heading straight for Xun Niannian's heart...

Xun Niannian subconsciously closed her eyes, waiting for the pain to come.

However, what she didn't expect was that what she waited for was not pain, but a muffled groan and the sound of something heavy being kicked away and then falling heavily to the ground!

Xun Niannian suddenly opened her eyes and saw a familiar handsome face. His brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he was enduring some pain.

Xun Niannian looked down subconsciously and saw a hole in the man's shoulder caused by a sharp weapon!

Bright red blood keeps oozing out!

"Chen Lianhe, are you okay?"
