Gu Xinglang heard shouting and screaming outside the building while in his room. He wanted to get up and go to the window to see what was going on, but he saw that Young Master Fenglin had gone to the window and was still guarding Wuhuan's bed without leaving.
Young Master Fenglin opened the window, and the shouting and screaming outside the building came into the room even louder and clearer.
"What happened?" Gu Xinglang asked anxiously.
Master Fenglin said, "A group of men in black have arrived. They appear to be from the Eternal Life Temple."
Gu Xinglang asked: "How many people are there?"
Junior Master Fenglin said, "With the soldiers here, have you been prepared?"
"Are there ambushes?" Gu Xinglang asked.
Master Fenglin looked back at Gu Xinglang and said, "It seems like you have been kept in the dark."
The person that Gu Xinglang wanted to arrange the ambush could only be his eldest brother.
Master Fenglin turned his head and looked out the window again, saying, "Your second brother is also leading his troops here."
Gu Xinglang could hear the sound of iron hooves stepping on the official road even while sitting in the room.
"Is this the last group of people?" Young Master Fenglin muttered to himself as he stood in front of the window.
Before Gu Xinglang could say anything, dust fell from the top of his head onto his face. Gu Xinglang didn't even look up, but simply drew his sword. After feeling the wind blowing from the top of his head, Young Master Gu swung his hand and slashed with the sword.
When Master Fenglin heard something wrong behind him, he turned around suddenly and saw Gu Xinglang chopping off half of the body of a man in black with a knife. Blood and flesh splattered all over Gu Xinglang from top to bottom.
Gu Xinglang stood in front of the bed, his body covered in blood, but he did not let Wuhuan, who was lying on the bed, get splashed with blood. Seeing more and more bricks and stones falling from the hole above his head, Gu Xinglang grabbed the bed frame and dragged Wuhuan and the bed towards the window. Finally, he took a look at the place where Young Master Fenglin was standing, and pushed the bed towards Young Master Fenglin.
Master Fenglin stepped forward, held onto the shaking bed, and shouted to Gu Xinglang, "Be careful!"
Two masked men in black jumped down from the cave.
"Xinglang?" Jing Mo's loud voice came from outside the building.
Master Fenglin shouted out the window, "There's an assassin!"
"Go upstairs," Gu Xingnuo said to Jing Mo while standing in front of the courtyard gate.
Jing Mo said to the heads of the clan, "Protect your master and the Fifth Prince."
The eldest master said, "Your Majesty, do you not want us to go into the building?"
Jing Mo waved to the boss and walked quickly into the building.
"Shoot!" Gu Xingnuo shouted to a lieutenant in the army, "From the rooftop!"
The captain gestured to his archers, and more than twenty archers half-knelt on the ground, pointing the eagle-feather arrows in their hands at the roof of the second floor.
There were five masked men in black standing on the roof at this time. It was pitch black at night, and if these five men hadn't made the noise themselves, it would have been almost impossible for others to find them.
The captain lowered his raised hand heavily.
More than twenty eagle-feather arrows were released from their bows within a few seconds of each other and flew towards the top of the building.
The five people on the roof saw the arrows flying towards them, but they still stood still.
The big boss took a look at the five people, stretched out his hand to pick up Su Yi, and shouted to the second in command: "No, take the people and retreat!"
The second in command and a brother had just lifted Gui Ning from the chair when a man on the roof waved his sleeves and more than twenty eagle-feather arrows hit a wall of air and were knocked back.
In just a blink of an eye, more than a dozen archers who were half-kneeling on the ground fell to the ground.
The boss held Su Yi and ran outside with the former pirates. The people from the Temple of Eternal Life outside were nothing. The one on the roof was the one that could really take their lives.
"The Prince Consort and Little Brother Wei are still in the building!" Ergouzi shouted to the boss.
The eldest boss said, "Shut up, just follow me! Brothers, you must protect Master and the Fifth Prince. The princess has been gone for a while and will be back soon. No matter how powerful the guy on the roof is, he will be finished when the princess comes back!"
As soon as the boss shouted that the princess would be back soon, not only the former pirates, but everyone in the courtyard was certain. Yu Xiaoxiao's image was so brave and invincible, so thinking of her, everyone naturally held a belief that if they persisted until the princess came back, they would win!
Su Yi was carried by the eldest master and ran. Su Yi's body could not bear the bumps. He gritted his teeth and endured the discomfort. Young Master Su asked the eldest master, "Who is it?"
The big boss said as he ran: "He must be the leader of the Eternal Life Temple. Maybe he is another monster. Master, we have seen a lot of this kind of stuff!"
Su Yi asked worriedly, "Prince Consort Gu?"
The eldest master said, "It's alright, Master. If our Prince Consort really gets angry, we can take care of him without the Princess having to come."
Although the boss is usually not serious and often has brain problems, he will immediately turn into a wise man when he is in danger. The boss has seen Gu Xinglang's madness with his own eyes. Don't look at the invincible look on the rooftop at this moment. If the prince consort goes crazy, ten more of him will probably die. The boss is running with his brothers now, just in case Gu Xinglang goes crazy and loses his senses. If they don't want to die, they have to stay away.
As for Jing Mo and his gang, the boss thought that everyone should worry about their own things. His mission was to protect Su Yi and Gui Ning. As for other things, Jing Mo was more capable than him, so it was not worth it for him to worry about Jing Mo.
Xiao Wei had been staying outside the door. After hearing the noise in the room, he did not rush into the room with people as he was unclear about the situation. It was only until he heard the sound of the roof collapsing that Xiao Wei raised his foot to kick the door.
"Don't come in!" Xiao Wei's feet touched the door, and Master Fenglin's voice came from inside the room: "No one come in!"
Before Master Fenglin finished his words, a terrifying scream was heard from the house.
Xiao Wei's mind went blank for a moment, then he came to his senses and stopped the guards behind him, saying, "Don't go in."
The guards didn't understand what was going on, but seeing that Xiao Wei was blocking the door without moving, the guards of Zhuri didn't want to fight with Xiao Wei, so they just glared at him.
Xiao Wei believed that his son-in-law must have had another attack, otherwise Master Fenglin would not have ordered them not to enter the house. Gu Xinglang's madness could not be seen by others, and this was the only thought in Xiao Wei's mind at the moment.
"Back off," Master Fenglin said sternly in the room, "Gu Wei, tell Jingmo's people to back off!"
Jing Mo had already reached the second floor by now. Although Young Master Fenglin was talking in the room at the end of the corridor, the building was not big and Jing Mo could hear Young Master Fenglin's words clearly.
"Everyone, step back," Jing Mo ordered the guards.
Although the guards were extremely shocked, they did not dare to disobey orders and quickly left the second floor of the small building. In the end, only Jing Mo and Xiao Wei were left standing in the corridor.
Xiao Wei pushed the door open a crack, and the smell of blood immediately wafted out from the crack.
