Chapter 256: Bloody Battle at Yufeng Mountain
Five guards, plus Liuyun and Liuying, brought a total of seven horses. When the time comes, Su Wan will follow Liuyun, and the others will protect her as she leaves.
Jiang Yu was obviously trying to comfort her, so he said that.
Su Wan had no idea whether what he was experiencing now was what he was also going to experience in the original novel, but with her intervention, things should have changed, so whether he could get away with it or not could not be judged based on the plot at all.
Su Wan kept pulling at his clothes, wanting him to follow her, but he had made up his mind.
He smiled gently at Su Wan, looked at the sky, and knew there was no time to delay any longer.
He reached out and hugged her:
"Be good, go wait for me first, okay? I'll definitely come find you before tomorrow evening!"
He made a promise to her. Su Wan knew that she would only cause trouble if she was here. Being persistent and demanding was not her style. She was an absolute sober person.
"Okay, then I'll wait for you, no matter how long it takes!"
This was the only promise she could give him. She was willing to wait for him forever, no matter what he would be like in the future, even if he died, she could do it for him and not marry anyone else. After all, marriage would be a tragedy if the choice was not good. But if it was that person, Jiang Yu, she believed that she would be happy.
Jiang Yu was glad that she was not a stubborn person, so he personally helped her onto the horse, and Liuyun would be with her to provide close protection.
Watching Su Wan go away, she looked back at him from time to time while sitting on the horse. At first, she could still see a smile on his face, but later, as he got farther away, even his shadow was not clear.
The horses were running faster and faster, and the group was struggling to head towards Mohe.
It was Su Wan's first time riding a horse, and the intensity was so high that after a while he felt the roots of his thighs were rubbed sore and his buttocks were also sore.
On Jiang Yu's side, after Su Wan's figure completely disappeared, the smile on his face instantly disappeared, and was replaced by a solemn and murderous look.
The fierce battle that follows is bound to be stained with blood.
He wouldn't want her to witness him killing people.
"Is there any news from Fengying?" he asked the guard beside him with a cold face.
"Yes, they are on their way and will probably arrive tonight," the guard replied.
"Go up the mountain after an hour!" Jiang Yu already had a conclusion in his mind.
…
It was already midnight when Su Wan ran completely out of the range of Yufeng Mountain. Liuyun slowed down only after he was sure it was safe.
Su Wan's legs were burning with pain. Her skin was so delicate that she couldn't withstand this level of horse racing for three consecutive hours, which was equivalent to six hours.
After the team stopped, they found an abandoned temple to spend the night, and set off to meet up with the Mo River at dawn.
The main reason was that Su Wan couldn't keep traveling at this intensity, so he had to stop and rest for a while.
The guards first went into the temple to clean it, then spread clean sheets on the straw, brought out some dry food, and lit a fire before letting her in to rest.
She was always thinking about Jiang Yu, and had no appetite to eat or sleep. She sat on the haystack, her whole body felt cold from the wind, and her feet were frozen.
It just started snowing outside, fluttering down heavily. If nothing goes wrong, it will be white tomorrow morning.
At this time, Yufeng Mountain was littered with corpses and the smell of blood was everywhere.
Jiang Yu was left with only six guards, and each of them was seriously injured.
Jiang Yu himself also suffered several sword wounds. They were not serious and would not take his life, but they did restrict him to some extent.
Tonight, everyone was bloodshot, especially Jiang Yu, whose eyes were bloodshot and bloodshot.
Fortunately, he let Su Wan go first.
The other side has sent out hundreds of experts, and now they have the majority in terms of numbers, with about twenty of them.
They had managed to hold on with great difficulty before, but there were always killers coming from all directions to support them, and they could not defeat them all, and were forced to this point.
As for Fengying, there was no sign of support coming, and I didn't know if something went wrong on the way.
At this time, another guard beside Jiang Yu fell down. He fainted due to excessive blood loss after being stabbed in the abdomen. Only five people were left, and they were all remnants.
Yu Wushang really spent a lot of money to kill him.
They were surrounded, and Yu Wushang's men had surrounded them.
"The higher-ups have ordered that whoever captures Jiang Yu's head will be rewarded with a thousand taels of gold or ten thousand taels of silver. Everyone, please show your ability!"
The remaining killers already felt that they could succeed this time, and Jiang Yu's head was already in their pockets.
Jiang Yu sneered and subconsciously tightened the sword in his hand.
The look on Su Wan's face when she left appeared in his mind. She said that she would wait for him no matter how long it took, so he couldn't let her down and couldn't let her wait too long.
Jiang Yu has grown up to where he is today, and he knows all the hardships he has gone through. He knows what he has experienced and what he has paid for. He has been able to get to where he is today because of his real ability.
No matter where he is, there are always conspiracies around him.
Some people in Fengyue Villa think he is an eyesore, and some people in Kyoto think he is taking up space. There are only a few people around him who are truly kind to him.
"Brothers, I'm sorry to make you suffer with me!" Jiang Yu watched his men fall one by one. It was impossible for him not to feel pressured.
Although they were his subordinates and death warriors, he also regarded them as brothers.
"Young Master, the lives of our subordinates belong to you. We will go through fire and water for you without hesitation."
Some of these guards were brought back from slave farms, and some were little beggars who were abandoned since childhood, had no parents, and made a living by begging. At that time, they were less than ten years old. Jiang Yu gave them hope and the treatment a normal person should have, being respected, recognized, having enough food to eat, wearing warm clothes, and being protected from the wind and sun. He also found people to teach them skills and never treated them harshly for many years.
Therefore, their feelings for Jiang Yu are supreme. If it weren't for Jiang Yu, they might have died in the slave farm, or frozen to death in the winter of some year, and there would be no future.
Those people were already rushing over with knives in their hands, all targeting Jiang Yu. Five guards protected him, ready to fight to the death.
At the critical moment, countless sharp arrows suddenly shot out from the woods behind them, many of which directly penetrated the bodies of the killers and killed them instantly.
Fengying arrived, and the situation of the battle turned around in an instant. The dozens of archers brought by Fengying were all specialized in archery, and they had all practiced to perfection.
Unless there is an accident, every arrow shot out can basically kill someone instantly.
In just a moment, more than half of the twenty killers were killed, and the remaining half were injured.
Fengying appeared from the darkness with several combat masters, and killed them with a few jumps using tree trunks as support points.
Fengying's martial arts skills should not be underestimated. He took care of the remaining killers who were injured and in poor condition with just a few moves.
Jiang Yu and the others did not take action, but they all relaxed. Fortunately, Fengying came to support them in time.
If it's a little later, there might be no recovery.
