Xiao Yi and the others watched Ye Qingcheng's back as she mounted her horse.
The group of people all frowned slightly.
"Hey, Xiao Yi, who exactly is this Doctor Ye? It's unbelievable that he has such high-level martial arts skills," Xiao Er asked.
Xiao Yi shook his head: "I don't know." After saying that, he sighed: "Who would have thought that such a seemingly gentle and weak woman would actually possess such profound martial arts skills?"
“Yes! If I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes, I would never have believed it,” Xiao Si said, his brows slightly furrowed.
“That’s right. Actually, I was already amazed when she subdued the giant python with her bare hands at the bottom of that deep pit. Her latest move has shocked me even more.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Er asked in shock, "What? Xiao San, you're saying that she killed the giant python at the bottom of the pit?"
Xiao San nodded heavily.
"This...didn't you say you were the one who put it on?"
"Me?" Xiao San gave a self-deprecating smile. "Heh! Do you think I have that ability?"
"This... then why did Doctor Ye say it was you before? And you admitted it yourself."
Xiao San shook his head and sighed: "That's her. She told me not to say anything. She doesn't want to reveal that she knows martial arts."
"I see. I knew it. How did you suddenly become so strong?"
Xiao Yi listened to their conversation and asked, "What giant python are you talking about?"
Xiao Er sighed, and then briefly recounted what had happened in the deep pit to Xiao Yi and Xiao Si.
this…
Upon hearing this, both Xiao Yi and Xiao Si opened their mouths slightly, their faces filled with disbelief.
Wait a moment.
Xiao Si sighed, "Strong, too strong. With such profound martial arts skills, even if we were ten times stronger, we might not be her match."
"kindness!"
The other three nodded emphatically after hearing this.
"This Doctor Ye is truly unexpected."
"That's right."
"By the way, have any of you seen what she looks like?"
"No, doesn't she always wear a veil? Have you seen her?"
"How could I possibly see its true face?"
"Then why are you asking?"
"I...I just wanted to ask!"
"You... Nonsense, we've always been together, and you've never met, so how could we have?"
"that is."
"By the way, speaking of which, why do you think this Doctor Ye, who is so powerful, would take us in as her bodyguards?"
"Oh? Oh right! If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about this. Why do you think that is?"
Xiao Yi frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and shook his head: "This Doctor Ye is too mysterious. How could we possibly guess what she's thinking?"
"Yes! That's right."
"Alright, we've been either traveling or fighting all this way. Let's all close our eyes and rest for a bit while we can!"
This group is much stronger than the ones we encountered on our way here, and we'll likely face even more formidable assassins on our journey back.
We need to rest up, recover as quickly as possible, and prepare for the next battle.
The others nodded in agreement.
Then the four of them closed their eyes and rested.
This way.
After Ye Qingcheng got into the carriage, she lay on the couch, intending only to close her eyes and rest for a while.
Whether it was because Xiao Yi and the others were guarding outside, giving her a moment of peace of mind, or because she was just too tired, she didn't know.
I closed my eyes and actually fell asleep.
And time flies.
Before we knew it, it was midnight.
Because of the silence all around.
Xiao Yi and the others did not sense any danger. They leaned against the treetops with peace of mind, closed their eyes, and even felt sleepy.
However, at this time...
Suddenly, the sound of running footsteps came from the woods.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi and the others immediately opened their eyes and exchanged glances.
"I dare not, someone is coming."
As Xiao Yi spoke, she stood up nervously.
Xiao San and the others also quickly stood up.
At this moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps completely shattered their sleepiness, putting them on the edge of their seats.
On the carriage.
Ye Qingcheng seemed to hear the chaotic footsteps as well, and was startled awake from her sleep. She opened her eyes abruptly, sat up, and listened carefully to the direction of the footsteps.
After a short while, she lifted the curtain and stepped out of the carriage.
Xiao Yi and the others sensed Ye Qingcheng coming out.
He turned to look at her.
"Dr. Ye, it seems like another assassin is coming," Xiao Yi said.
Ye Qingcheng nodded: "Quickly, get on your horses, let's go."
Walk?
Xiao Yi and the others were puzzled after hearing this.
However, since Ye Qingcheng had spoken, they obeyed and mounted their horses.
Just as the group was about to leave...
call out!
A figure darted out of the forest.
Ye Qingcheng and the others turned to look at that person.
It turned out to be a man.
The man was covered in blood, with several cuts from swords and knives on his body.
The wounds were numerous, the flesh was torn open, and the bone was exposed. He was swaying and looked like he was about to collapse at any moment.
His face was covered by a silver mask, half of which concealed his features.
Ye Qingcheng looked at the man, her eyebrows furrowing slightly.
Xiao Yi and the others had the same expression.
At that moment, the man was also staring at Ye Qingcheng and the others, stunned in place.
After a short while...
