Chapter 220 Beauty Saves Hero
Three of them shouted and rushed to Huixin, intending to entangle the other party, and then let the remaining killers find a way to sneak attack An Yunxi in the carriage.
They had received a death order, and they had to complete this mission today no matter what, otherwise they would not have to go back.
However, Huixin saw through the other party's thoughts at a glance, and did not get entangled with these people at all. He immediately returned to the side of the carriage to resist other people who wanted to rush over.
He did not need to take the initiative to kill this group of people. The only thing he needed to do was to delay enough time.
As long as the news reached Ling Fengxun's ears, all the troubles would be gone.
An Yunxi lifted the curtain and took a look at the battle situation outside.
She had no intention of going out to help. With Huixin's ability, she would not encounter any danger in the assassination by these people.
Instead of running out to distract the other party, it is better to sit here and wait for reinforcements. If there is any accident, she can protect herself.
Her mind was not idle either. She kept thinking about who dared to assassinate her in this imperial city.
She hadn't left the room for a month. She just came out for a trip and was targeted. This was too much of a coincidence. Unless someone had been secretly planning to murder her, they would not come so punctually.
In addition, seeing that there was no Ling Fengxun around her, and no other guards, they thought they had seized the opportunity and spared no effort to take her down.
After tapping the carriage wall with a dagger, An Yunxi rested her chin on one hand and fell into deep thought, looking quite leisurely.
Not long after, the imperial guards of the capital surrounded the entire street.
Half of the people who came to assassinate An Yunxi were killed by Huixin, and the remaining half were looking for an opportunity.
But they couldn't find this opportunity at all.
Even the leading assassin looked at Huixin with despair.
How could someone have such high martial arts skills? He
was as powerful as a monster!
Whether it was the reaction speed or the way of attacking, it was beyond the reach of others.
Several people attacked together, but they might not be able to touch the corner of the opponent's clothes.
It was too late .
The surrounding imperial guards had already surrounded them, and it was estimated that the regent would arrive soon.
The eyes of the leader of the dark guards gradually became deep. He quietly touched the things in his arms, then gritted his teeth, closed his eyes, and took out a fire starter.
"Get out of the way!"
He shouted, and then rushed up directly.
Seeing this, Huixin's light-colored eyes hidden under the black cloak became sharp. In his hand, he took the long sword snatched from others and caught the opponent's sword that was chopped down from above.
The sound of metal colliding was crisp. The killer leader approached again, and even planned to use a life-for-life fighting method to force Huixin to retreat.
However, Huixin refused to take a step back.
He even took the initiative to accept the attack and slowly pushed the opponent away.
Huixin's ears moved, and a dangerous intuition spread from his heart.
He heard a strange hissing sound coming from the other party's body.
Not good!
Huixin's eyes widened slightly. He didn't expect that the other party would use such a despicable method to assassinate the princess.
A sneer appeared at the corner of the other party's mouth. When Huixin inserted the sword into his heart, he grabbed Huixin's wrist fiercely.
At this moment, it was impossible to break free from the shackles of the other party.
Even if Huixin discovered the danger, it was too late to leave.
The next moment, a sound of something exploding came from the other party's body. The deafening sound made everyone around subconsciously look here.
Including the guards who surrounded them.
They saw that the body of the killer leader was blown apart by something.
He fell to the ground in a bloody mess.
The other killers looked at where Huixin was.
However, Huixin, who should have been killed in the explosion like that man, was standing at the entrance of the carriage.
Although there was blood on his body and he was injured, his face was still rosy and he did not look like he had suffered a serious injury.
Beside him stood a woman with an absolutely beautiful appearance.
The woman was wearing a light-colored long skirt, and her light blue skirt fluttered. Because she was supporting Huixin, it was inevitably stained with a lot of bright red.
She held a dagger in one hand, and some blood was dripping from the sharp blade of the dagger.
A severed hand fell not far from their feet.
An Yunxi asked Huixin softly.
"Little Master, are you okay?"
Huixin, who had just been rescued, was still a little dazed.
He turned his head to glance at An Yunxi, but saw the woman looking at him with a gentle smile, her eyes as soft as water.
His throat rolled for a moment, and he slowly opened his mouth, his voice a little hoarse.
"Princess, wasn't she just..."
Wasn't she in the carriage? When did she come out?
An Yunxi smiled and said, "Although I was sitting in the carriage, I was always paying attention to the battle. I was afraid that you would get hurt, so I observed some small movements of others, and found that the head of the guards was holding a fire stick and lighting something on himself."
Things that require fire, needless to say, are not easy to make.
So from the moment the two of them fought, they were always ready to take action.
Exactly as she expected.
The guard leader exploded.
If she hadn't cut off the other's hand and retreated with Huixin, he would have been seriously injured even if he didn't die.
Huixin was dumb, looking at An Yunxi with eyes full of emotion.
It was clearly him who promised to protect An Yunxi, but in the end, the person being protected seemed to be him. Huixin had grown up so big, and in addition to experiencing such a feeling of being protected by her master, this was the first time she felt "thank you"
from another person .
These thoughts only flashed through his mind for a moment.
He quickly came to his senses and thanked her. Then he
protected An Yunxi behind him again.
Seeing their leader, they used all their tricks, but they still didn't hurt the woman at all. The remaining killers completely lost the will to do this mission. They
retreated with fear on their faces, and then tried to escape.
But they couldn't escape.
Countless guards swarmed over and wiped out all the killers in an instant.
It's a pity that these people also have poison sacs in their mouths. Once caught, they will commit suicide immediately, leaving them no chance to interrogate.
The leader of the imperial guards was sweating profusely. He hurried to An Yunxi and bowed.
"Princess, I am late in coming to rescue you. Please forgive me!"
He was really scared.
If the princess was injured, he would also be blamed.
He couldn't bear the charge that they didn't do a good job of patrolling and let the assassin sneak into the imperial city!
