Xie Daoyun recovered slightly and slowly opened her eyes, only to find herself being held by Zu An. Her face immediately turned bright red with embarrassment: "I...I didn't mean to faint."
As a young lady from a prominent family, she had read many romance novels in the past. There were often scenes in these novels where the heroine would faint when the hero appeared, and the hero would help her up, perhaps even spinning around in the air. At the time, she thought that this was too pretentious, never expecting that one day she would become like that herself.
What if Brother Zu misunderstands me as the kind of scheming woman?
Seeing her flustered appearance, Zuan chuckled: "Whether you faint or not depends on your physical condition; you can't fake it."
Hearing him say that, Xie Daoyun breathed a sigh of relief. Her face flushed, she gently pushed his chest away, stepped out of his embrace, and stood up straight: "Thank you, Brother Zu."
At this moment, Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang looked left and right, but couldn't see any other Imperial Guards. Their joy turned to fear: "General Zu, where are the others? Should we have them flank us from other directions?"
Seeing the expectant, even pleading, look in their eyes, Zu'an was taken aback: "No, I was worried that it would affect the date of Zishan, so I told them to continue marching. I came over here to take a look."
Wang Bolin and Zhang Zijiang were immediately devastated: "It's all over, completely over!"
If those Imperial Guards were here, they wouldn't be afraid of this group of rebels, or even a Grandmaster. But now that only one person has come, they're doomed.
They accused us of being reckless and light-armed. We at least brought a hundred soldiers, while this guy didn't bring a single one. What are we anyway?
At this moment, the group of rebels were startled by the sudden appearance of Zuan. After they came to their senses, they realized that there was only one more person. How could they be a match for so many of their own people, not to mention the leaders of the first and second leaders?
Then they rushed over, yelling, "Pretty boy, let go of the woman our boss has his eye on!"
"I'll chop off your groping hands!"
"You dare touch the wife of the bandit chief of Shuanglong Mountain? Kid, are you tired of living?"
...
Hearing the various vulgarities coming from the other side, Xie Daoyun felt both ashamed and angry. At the same time, she looked at Zu An with concern. Although she knew he was powerful, he was still just one person.
Just as she was worrying, she suddenly froze, because she saw golden ripples appear in the sky behind Zuan, and long swords slowly emerged from them.
Each one exuded a terrifying pressure, seemingly a weapon of the Heavenly Rank.
