Upon seeing this, Xiao Yi and the others raised their longswords, preparing to attack.
After a moment of stunned silence, the two men raised their swords and pointed them at Xiao Yi and the others, preparing to attack.
However, at this time...
The masked man spoke up to stop the two men who had just rushed out of the forest.
"Qinglong, Wu Ji, stop!"
Upon hearing this, the two men stopped what they were doing.
"Master, who are they...?"
"Just passing by."
The masked man looked at Ye Qingcheng and spoke to the two men.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand to his chest and coughed painfully.
"Master, Master..."
Upon seeing this, the two men shouted in alarm and moved to the side of the masked man, supporting him.
"Master, how are you?"
"Cough cough! I'm... fine, but where are Leng Er and Shisan?"
"They're still behind us, Master. Let's hurry! There are just too many of them. Leng Er and Thirteen probably won't be able to hold out for long."
Shh! Shh!
The man had barely finished speaking.
At this moment.
The sound of footsteps crunching through leaves echoed through the woods once more.
Immediately afterwards.
Whoosh!
Two more men rushed out of the woods.
"Cold Two, Thirteen."
The two men who had been there earlier turned around and looked at the two men who had rushed out, and shouted to each of them.
However, the two men who had just rushed out did not respond to the two men who had come before.
They looked at the masked man.
"Master, there are too many of them, they're catching up! Let's hurry and leave!"
Upon hearing this, the masked man frowned slightly, glanced at Ye Qingcheng, and then nodded.
The two men who had just rushed out only then noticed Ye Qingcheng and Xiao Yi and the others.
The two men tensed up immediately, drew their swords, and asked the masked man, "Master, who are these people?"
The masked man spoke calmly, "They're not with those people. Let's ignore them and go!"
After saying that.
He then prepared to leave with his men.
However, at this time...
Another series of chaotic footsteps echoed through the woods, and it seemed there were quite a few people running at a fast pace.
Upon hearing this, one of the masked servants hurriedly said, "Oh no, Master, they're coming after us!"
"Walk…"
Without any hesitation, the masked man took the lead and stepped away.
But the people chasing after them were just too fast.
It only took the blink of an eye.
They then emerged one by one from the forest.
Those who rushed out ignored Ye Qingcheng, Xiao Yi, and the others, and without saying a word, they started fighting with the masked man and his group.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi and the others retreated to Ye Qingcheng's carriage.
"Dr. Ye, this..."
Ye Qingcheng frowned slightly, looked for a while, and then said, "This has nothing to do with us, let's go."
"good."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi and the others prepared to mount their horses and leave.
But at this time...
More than twenty people rushed out of the forest. Some joined the battle with the masked man, while others actually attacked Ye Qingcheng and her group.
Seeing this, Xiao Yi and his companions had no choice but to draw their longswords and fight against those who were attacking them.
It was just a fleeting moment.
This created two battlefields.
The once quiet forest and habitat became bustling with activity amidst the fierce fighting on the two battlefields.
The crisp sounds of swords clashing and the dull thuds of fists colliding echoed throughout the forest.
Ye Qingcheng stood on the carriage, glancing at the battlefield of Xiao Yi and the others, and then at the battlefield of the masked man and his group, her brows furrowed.
Meanwhile, on this side...
The masked man was also keeping an eye on Ye Qingcheng while fighting.
The duration of the two battlefields is unknown.
Because the opposing force was simply too large, and each of them appeared to be highly skilled in martial arts.
Until Xiao Yi and the others gradually lost ground.
The masked man's side also showed signs of defeat.
Ye Qingcheng then revealed the silver needles in her hand, intending to make her move.
However, she hasn't made a move yet.
The masked man was struck several times by several people and sent flying to Ye Qingcheng's carriage.
"Master...Master..."
The masked man's men, seeing him being knocked away, all shouted in alarm.
However, being nervous was useless, as they were all entangled with numerous experts and had no time to care about the masked man.
Meanwhile, on this side...
Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng wanted to get off the carriage and go check on the masked man.
But at this time...
The people who had injured the masked man rushed over.
It looked like those people were about to attack the masked man again.
Ye Qingcheng waved her arm.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Each silver needle, like lightning, flashed with dazzling light in the darkness, striking those people with incredible speed.
Ahhh!
Several screams rang out, and the men who rushed towards the masked man died instantly.
The masked man lying on the ground looked at Ye Qingcheng with surprise in his eyes.
However, Ye Qingcheng did not pay attention to his expression, but walked to his side and looked at his injuries.
"You're really strong. You've suffered such serious injuries and been poisoned by the Heart-Eating Gu, yet you're still so good at fighting."
Upon hearing this, the masked man's deep, dark gaze scrutinized Ye Qingcheng.
At this moment, Ye Qingcheng felt very familiar to him.
