His skill was truly terrifyingly profound. Even at a distance of five steps, the sword energy could transmit such overbearing force. If they fought face to face, the person who received this move would probably be injured or disabled.
She felt her sweat-soaked hair was as cold as ice under the iron helmet.
"Cheer up, it's not the end yet."
Su Wei's voice came again from behind the car curtain, calm and without any panic or fear, as if what he just reminded her of was just an insignificant matter.
Just this short sentence made Xiao Nanhui shudder.
Her duty has not been completed yet, so how can she feel cowardly?
However, before she could prepare, the sword's cry, like a ghost's cry, rang out again. This time it came from the right, faster and more powerful.
This at least shows that her opponent may only be one person.
Xiao Nanhui tightened the reins and changed direction. The pace of the four horses slowed down for a moment. The blow just brushed past the carriage, but cut off half of the shaft and yoke.
There was a loud "click" as the entire weight of the carriage fell on the reins and bridles. The four horses driving the carriage screamed and collided with each other, and were about to break apart.
In a flash, she turned around and dragged Su Wei from the carriage to her chest, then dragged him on the back with one hand, so that his entire center of gravity fell on the wooden bar at the back half of the shaft.
The carriage lost its weight and began to sway from side to side. The sand and stones raised by the four madly galloping horses kept flying out, brushing past people's faces and making it impossible to open their eyes.
Xiao Nanhui had no time to care about so many things. She squinted her eyes and took a look, then chose a big blue horse that looked strong. She grabbed Su Wei's waist belt with both hands and lifted him up, then slowly stood up on the speeding carriage.
The man was wearing a black, floor-length robe today. The base was plain, and a layer of light gauze covered it. The moment the wind blew, the light gauze, along with the eight pieces of the robe, instantly exploded, like a black lotus quietly blooming in the hazy fog.
Xiao Nanhui's gaze was still fixed on the horse running in front of him, but he could feel the restrained power emanating from the body of his subordinate.
Being in a high position, he encountered such an absurd situation. He could have been dissatisfied and angry, questioning and scolding, but he said nothing and asked nothing.
It was an innate elegance. Even if blood was splattered three feet and corpses were lying five steps away in the next moment, he remained calm.
The next second, the wooden board under his feet sank. Just before losing his balance, Xiao Nanhui kicked hard and fell heavily on the back of the green horse along with the person in his arms.
Almost at the same time, dozens of reins broke. She pulled out the bridle and slashed it with her backhand. The carriage, which had been shot into the shape of a hedgehog, was completely left behind by them.
The cold wind blew in her face, and she felt Su Wei's hair scratching and entangled around her neck. Only then did she realize that his crown had fallen off during the pulling just now, and she belatedly remembered to apologize.
"Your Majesty, I have just offended you."
She couldn't see the man's face, but she heard a low laugh.
"I never thought I would be able to experience such a scene in my lifetime."
What should she say? I am honored.
Xiao Nanhui was a little confused and could only lower his voice to remind: "Your Majesty, don't look up. That person is still following behind."
This horse was used to pull a cart, and had no saddle other than a bridle. She could only try her best to hold on to the rope to control her body balance. However, when two people were riding on the same horse, she still didn't dare to hold the horse's belly tightly and gallop away.
The fog didn't seem as thick as it had been in the early hours of the morning. She carefully identified the surroundings and began to move forward in a roundabout way, trying to shake off the person following her.
The sounds behind her came and went, and she listened carefully. As soon as the sound got closer, she would immediately turn her horse's head and make a sharp turn to distance herself from it.
But this is definitely not a solution.
She looked down at the incense around her waist and found that it had burned out. She wondered when Lu Songping's men would come to support her.
In that moment of distraction, she suddenly felt a weak breeze blowing towards her.
On plains, the flow of air is generally regular. Only near valleys and other undulating areas will there be different airflow changes.
Lu Songping's combat zone was around the hill, but the direction she had just escaped from was almost the exact opposite.
Well, there is another possibility...
Almost subconsciously, she tightened the reins.
The bit was tightened into the horse's mouth. The horse raised its front hooves high and fell to one side due to loss of balance.
Xiao Nanhui hugged Su Wei tightly and took advantage of the momentum to roll off the horse. Just as she was about to stop, she felt something cold blowing across her shoulders from bottom to top.
She slowly turned around and saw the edge of the dry land.
How can the earth have an edge?
Certainly not the edge, just the end.
The end of the cliff.
