Clearly, this group had a well-coordinated formation, capable of protecting their comrades by attacking when they were about to be rescued.
The mysterious woman seemed to have anticipated this, showing no sign of panic. With a light touch of her toes, she leaped into the air above the group, which should be the weakest point in their formation.
Just as her fingers were about to crush the heads of several people, the two people behind her suddenly raised two shields above their heads.
The mysterious woman frowned slightly, but still pressed down with her palm.
The runes on the two shields flashed, clearly indicating they were top-quality items from the military, but they only shone for a second before shattering into pieces.
Although the mysterious woman looked slender and delicate, the power of her palm strike was terrifying.
The few assassins below let out a muffled groan, blood seeping from their ears and noses.
The three onlookers exchanged glances, all seeing the seriousness in each other's eyes; this mysterious woman's skill was truly extraordinary.
The key question is: who exactly is she, and why is she trying to stop their plans?
Suddenly, the mysterious woman shot into the sky. It turned out that the moment the shield shattered, the assassins inside had pulled out two crossbows and fired them.
These crossbow bolts from the army were engraved with special runes and arrays. The power they delivered at such close range was extraordinary, and even she dared not take them head-on.
The woman frowned. She had intended to catch these people off guard, but she hadn't expected them to be so troublesome. So she gave up the attack and went to Zu'an's side. While sealing the wound on his chest, she pulled out the giant crossbow: "Zu'an, how are you?"
"Is it her?" Zu An's heart skipped a beat. He smelled that familiar fragrance and heard that delicate, melodious voice. He finally realized who she was.
Princess Yun Yuqing, with whom he had a one-night stand!
"Who exactly are those people who want to kill me? Why is she in the capital? And how did she manage to save me?" Zu An had countless questions in his mind. In addition, he was wary of the mysterious mental expert hiding somewhere and planned to give the person hiding in the dark a surprise later, so he pretended to be unconscious and did not respond to her.
"Aunt, don't scare me~" Yun Yuqing's voice trembled slightly when she saw that he didn't react. Her fair hand gently touched his wound, and then a faint purple light appeared, healing his terrible wound.
"Stop her!"
On the other side, the short man wielding the large golden hammer felt that he had just seen through the woman's cultivation level and could no longer restrain himself. He kicked his thick calf backward, cracking the ground, and then swung the golden mace at the two of them.
Before they even arrived, a terrifying gust of wind pressure rushed over, instantly crushing the scattered spinning wheel into pieces. It was easy to imagine that if they had been hit by this blow, the two of them would have been turned into mincemeat on the spot.

In ancient times, crossbows were controlled items; I never imagined they would be a sensitive word now...
