The murderous intent in his heart became stronger: not to mention that this passerby had killed several of his people, no matter what, she must not be spared.
Wei Wan is the younger sister of Duke Weiguo, and the younger one too. If not for this, why would she have to endure for so long.
Therefore, we must not leave anyone alive in this incident today.
Several men dressed as robbers received the signal from their master and immediately approached Gu Yanfei who was riding on a horse, surrounding him.
The bearded man gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow from his palm. His face was distorted with pain and the blood on his palm flowed even more violently.
He tore off a piece of cloth, bit it with his teeth, and bandaged his injured right hand hastily. He then picked up a long knife from the ground with his left hand, and shot a wolf-like bloodthirsty look at Gu Yanfei with murderous intent.
Wei Wan's heart skipped a beat. She hugged her daughter and looked up at Gu Yanfei on the horse. She said quickly, "Don't worry about me. I just ask you to take my daughter with you and run away!"
Two fists are no match for four hands. Gu Yanfei just took advantage of the unexpected situation. Under the premise that Xu Yan and his subordinates were already on guard, it would be difficult for a weak woman like Gu Yanfei to fight back.
Wei Wan's lips were pale as a bloodless corpse, and the ground beneath her feet was soaked with blood, but her back remained straight.
"Second Miss Gu, hurry up!" Wei Wan stared at Gu Yanfei and said in a hard voice. Her red eyes seemed to say, don't waste your life here! Gu Yanfei raised his eyebrows slightly, and when he looked at Wei Wan again, there was a little more favor in his expression.
She and Wei Wan only met once.
She warned, but Wei Wan didn't believe it. So whether she lived or died was Wei Wan's own choice.
Just because she can see other people's life and death doesn't mean she should be responsible for everyone's fate. There are so many living beings, how can she control them all?
She went out of the capital this time just to lend a helping hand because of her friendship with the Duke of Weiguo's Mansion.
But at this moment, Wei Wan made her look at her in a different light.
In the Yaoling Realm, Gu Yanfei had seen many people who, when they were about to die, wanted to drag others to die with them, no matter if these "others" were enemies or passers-by.
In comparison, Wei Wan's character is quite good.
"Don't be impatient." Gu Yanfei took out a piece of talisman paper.
With a shake of her hand, the talisman paper burned, and a dazzling red light flew out from between her fingers, rushing straight into the sky, and a huge firework bloomed in the night sky.
The blood-red light illuminated a large area of the night sky and the wilderness below, like a lighthouse in the darkness pointing the way for lost travelers.
Xu Yan was really panicked this time, his eyes filled with confusion.
The person Wei Wan called out just now was Miss Gu Er! The Miss Gu Er who had predicted that he would take action today?! The signal flare she just sent out, could it be that someone from the Duke of Wei's residence was also nearby? If someone from the Duke of Wei's residence arrived at this moment and saw this scene...
The more Xu Yan thought about it, the more panicked he became. He broke out in a cold sweat and dared not think about it any further.
"Do it." Xu Yan once again gave the order harshly. Against the red light of the night sky above, his handsome face looked like an evil ghost stained with countless blood.
At this point, there is no way he can turn back.
He must kill the witnesses before more people arrive here! "Yes, Lord." The bearded man and others responded sharply, deciding to make a quick decision.
Facing these ferocious men, Gu Yanfei didn't even move his eyes or eyebrows. He smiled and looked down at Xu Yan not far away from his high horse and said, "Do you know the Word Spirit?"
Xu Yan looked puzzled.
Gu Yanfei shook his left hand, and a small compass appeared in his palm. He flicked it casually and smiled at Xu Yan jokingly: "Oh, blood disaster."
"..." Xu Yan's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he was ready for battle.
Is she trying to be mysterious, or...
“Crack…”
Just as Gu Yanfei finished speaking, a big tree on the side of the road suddenly broke in half, and the thick trunk fell to the middle of the road like a collapsed building, and a huge shadow pressed down on Xu Yan's head.
How could that be?!
Xu Yan's pupils twitched and his eyes widened instantly.
“Boom!”
The heavy tree trunk pressed down on Xu Yan and the carriage next to it. The carriage, which was like a small house, was pressed to the other side by the trunk, making a loud noise. Xu Luo in the carriage let out an uneasy scream.
Dust was flying all around and a hazy gray fog spread.
Xu Luo, who was pressed under the tree trunk, had a red and swollen forehead and his eyes were closed, as if he had fainted.
This scene shocked the bearded man and others not far away. Their limbs became stiff and they could not move for a long time.
This… this is too mysterious! Miss Gu only said one sentence, and such a bizarre thing happened. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they simply couldn’t believe it.
The bearded man pointed the long knife in his left hand at Gu Yanfei, the tip of the knife trembling slightly, and shouted in a strong voice: "You...what did you do?!"
Gu Yanfei held her compass in one hand and glanced slowly and leisurely at everyone with a cold gaze. Everyone who was caught by her gaze couldn't help but feel their scalp tingling.
Gu Yanfei sighed and shook his head, and said in a compassionate tone: "A bloody disaster."
No way? It can't be that effective! Everyone's heartbeats quickened, and they hurriedly looked towards the roadside, fearing that another big tree would break in half...
The bearded man hesitated for only a moment before he decisively shouted, "It's this girl who's playing tricks on us. Get rid of her first!"
The others also thought it made sense, and continued to approach Gu Yanfei with long swords in their hands, their faces grim.
Wei Wan looked at Gu Yanfei, who was calm and composed on horseback, and then looked at those murderous men. She gritted her teeth, ignored the wound on her back, and laboriously picked up a sword from the ground...
“De de de…”
From the southeast came the sound of even more chaotic horse hoofbeats; at least dozens of horses were galloping towards this side, getting closer and closer, becoming louder and louder, rumbling like thunder.
“Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!”
Three feather arrows came flying at the same time, breaking through the air with an overwhelming momentum and were extremely sharp.
Dozens of people came riding on horses, and the one leading them was the Duke of Wei.
Duke Weiguo was old but still strong. He shot three arrows at the same time. There were three sounds of arrows hitting the ground at the same time, and the three men fell down after being shot.
Every arrow killed.
In just a moment, three more corpses appeared on the ground, their eyes wide open, as if they died with their eyes open.
The blood was flowing on the ground, forming a river.
As the night wind blew, the strong smell of blood lingered.
The faces of the other four people including the bearded man changed drastically. Looking at the Duke of Weiguo and the guards behind him rushing towards them, they became panicked and scared.
One of them looked hesitantly at Xu Yan who was pinned under the tree, and said hurriedly: "Brother Li, why don't we take the Marquis first..." and escape.
The bearded man gritted his teeth and nodded. Several people ran towards Xu Yan with knives in hand, and together they dragged the unconscious Xu Yan out from under the tree little by little.
“De de de…”
Duke Weiguo rode his horse forward first and saw the seriously injured Wei Wan at a glance. Her clothes had almost turned into a bloody shirt, which was so shocking that Duke Weiguo's eyes were bloodshot.
"Awan!"
"Twelfth sister!"
The Duke of Wei and his wife shouted at the same time.
A dozen feet behind, the wife of Duke Weiguo also rode anxiously over, and arrived with a group of guards.
Looking at Wei Wan covered in blood and Xu Yao in tears in front of her, Lady Weiguo felt heartbroken.
My mother-in-law was over 40 years old when she gave birth to Wei Wan. She was weak after giving birth, so Wei Wan was almost raised by the wife of Duke Weiguo alone. She gave her enlightenment, taught her needlework, the ways of the world and how to manage a household... It was not much different from raising a daughter.
Wei Wan was rich and proud since she was a child. The worst pain she had ever suffered in her life was the pain of giving birth to twins for three days and three nights.
Their little A-Wan had never suffered such a hardship in the past 27 years! "Brother, sister-in-law..." Wei Wan was relieved when she saw that her brother and sister-in-law were here. Her voice was trembling slightly and she was weak and powerless.
Her eyes were also filled with crystal tears, tears of joy.
My daughter's life was saved.
That’s good, that’s good! Wei Wan was relieved.
It was not until this moment that she felt the piercing pain from the knife wound on her back. Her limbs had already turned cold from excessive blood loss.
“Bang.”
The last breath she had held on to finally faded away, and the sword in her hand fell to the ground.
Her eyes went dark and she fainted from exhaustion.
“Mother! Mother…”
The little girl screamed in panic, tears streaming down her little face. She threw herself on her mother, her petite and frail body shaking constantly.
"..." The wife of Duke Weiguo jumped off her horse and ran towards Wei Wan in two steps, her eyes red and filled with tears.
"Aunt, please save my mother!" Xu Yao cried out in panic, and rushed over to grab the hand of Lady Weiguo.
Her right shin bone was still hurting, and every time her foot touched the ground, her right calf subconsciously shrank and her face showed pain.
Gu Yanfei jumped off the horse lightly and skillfully, and came to Wei Wan's side. He frowned and looked at Xu Yao's rubbed palms, then looked at a jade pendant that fell on the ground not far away, as if thinking about something.
"Yan Fei..." Lady Weiguo looked at Gu Yan Fei anxiously and expectantly, wanting to ask her if Wei Wan could still be saved.
