Looking at the dark green eyes all around her, Jiang Ranli felt a chill in her heart. She couldn't imagine what would happen if she couldn't break through.
The guards originally wanted to gather together to fight the enemy, but the wolves were extremely smart and did not give them this opportunity at all. Relying on their advantage in numbers, they dispersed the guards one by one. Everyone was exhausted and could not exert their full strength at all.
Jiang Ranli and Wu Yanqing were surrounded by four wolves and were in a critical situation, but the situation of the others was not much better than theirs.
"Li'er, I'll attract the attention of those two wolves later. You take the opportunity to run away quickly," said Wu Yanqing.
Looking in the direction he pointed, Jiang Ranli shook his head, "I won't run. I'm here and can help you a little. If I leave, you will be attacked from both sides."
Jiang Ranli has always been a grateful person. Wu Yanqing risked his life to save her, so how could she abandon him at this time? Besides, even if she left, she would definitely encounter other wolves ahead. At that time, she and Wu Yanqing would be separated, and the situation would be even more dangerous than it is now. It would be better for the two of them to fight together, as the chances of success would be greater.
"You don't have to worry about me..." Wu Yanqing didn't want Jiang Ranli to face such danger.
"Stop talking and cheer up."
Jiang Ranli didn't want to say more to Wu Yanqing. She had already made up her mind that she would never abandon her companions and leave. Moreover, the four wolves were ready to make a move, so she had to concentrate on dealing with them so as not to hold Wu Yanqing back.
A showdown between humans and wolves broke out. Wu Yanqing's sword energy was sharp and every move was deadly, but the wolves were extremely agile and dodged the attacks every time. Jiang Ranli didn't know kung fu, she just held a long knife and observed vigilantly, and chopped wherever a wolf pounced. The critical moment of life and death gave her an endless desire to survive, so a long knife was considered to be very powerful.
However, her response method was obviously ineffective. If only one wolf attacked, she could still barely protect herself, but if two wolves attacked at the same time, she would be in danger.
The number of guards was decreasing, but the number of wolves was increasing. In just a cup of tea, the number of wolves increased to more than a hundred, while six or seven of the guards were killed.
When Yinzhen and the Thirteenth Prince arrived, they saw a pack of wolves besieging the guards with overwhelming superiority. The two ordered the attendants behind them to go for support, and looked around anxiously for the figure they were thinking about. However, because the night was too dark and the scene was too chaotic, they found nothing.
Jiang Ranli and Wu Yanqing were overwhelmed, and Wu Yanqing was injured several times while protecting Jiang Ranli.
Looking at his tea-white clothes soaked in blood, Jiang Ranli felt extremely guilty, "Yanqing, I'm sorry, if it weren't for me, you wouldn't be in such a dangerous situation."
Upon hearing this, Wu Yanqing's handsome face, which was covered in blood, smiled and said softly, "The Tenth Master, the Fourteenth Master and I were ordered to come here to find the Fifteenth Prince and the Sixteenth Prince. How can you be blamed for all this? It's all because these wolves are so brutal and ferocious that they made you follow me even though your life is hanging by a thread."
Hearing his words, Jiang Ranli couldn't help but smile. It was already this time, but he was still teasing her.
The number of wolves besieging them has increased from four at the beginning to six now. Wu Yanqing protected Jiang Ranli tightly by her side, but she was still not aware for a moment and watched two wolves pounce on her at the same time.
"Li'er..."
A heart-wrenching voice came from not far away.
When Jiang Ranli heard the voice calling her name, the fear and worry in her heart disappeared in an instant, leaving only peace of mind.
