Chapter 563: Each for His Own Master
Qin Zhong relied on his momentary enthusiasm and managed to fight Xiao Xixi to a draw.
As for the other guards, they couldn't find any chance to attack at all, because Qin Zhong and Xiao Xixi's moves were too fast. The two of them were moving around, and the guards were afraid of accidentally hurting Qin Zhong.
They are afraid to use force.
Coupled with the magical power of Xiao Xixi, the guards did not dare to act rashly.
At this moment, Fang Wujiu joined the battle with a sword in hand.
He stabbed Xiao Xixi's back with a sword!
Xiao Xixi didn't look back.
She is now fully focused on dealing with Qin Zhong and has no intention of looking back.
Fang Wujiu's sword was once again bounced away by the invisible force.
He asked, "How many amulets do you carry with you?"
Xiao Xixi dodged Qin Zhong's attack and replied at the same time.
"you guess."
Fang Wujiu: "No matter how many amulets you have, you can't escape today. If you hand over the antidote obediently, I can save your life."
Xiao Xixi didn't answer.
She seized an opportunity and slashed the blade in her hand across Qin Zhong's chest!
Although the knife was not fatal, it caused Qin Zhong to bleed a lot, and his speed and strength immediately dropped.
Xiao Xixi pursued him relentlessly, wanting to take the opportunity to kill him.
Fang Wujiu intervened at this time and stopped her pursuit.
Facing the senior brother who raised her, Xiao Xixi unconsciously restrained her edge and her attacks were not as ferocious as before.
Fang Wujiu stabbed her neck with the sword in his hand!
Xiao Xixi dodged sideways and avoided the sword.
Fang Wujiu sheathed his sword, and the tip of the sword drew an arc in the air, slashing towards her again!
Xiao Xixi held the knife across her face and blocked the sword.
The weapons collided, making a crisp clanging sound.
Fang Wujiu asked: "Why didn't you fight back?"
Xiao Xixi didn't say anything.
She stepped back.
Fang Wujiu pressed forward step by step.
One is unwilling to take ruthless action.
One will never stop until one dies.
The two sides fought back and forth, with their swords crossing each other, like thunder and lightning, dazzling.
Fang Wujiu cut Xiao Xixi's right forearm with a sword.
——The amulets on her body were finally used up.
Because of the pain, her fingers holding the handle of the knife trembled.
Fang Wujiu took the opportunity to knock the knife out of her hand, then stretched out his leg and swept Xiao Xixi to the ground, with the tip of the sword in his hand pointing at her nose.
Xiao Xixi lay on her back on the ground, looking at the sword tip that was so close to her, with sweat all over her forehead.
Fang Wujiu looked down at her condescendingly.
"Why don't you fight back?"
Xiao Xixi gritted her teeth and reached out to grab the knife that fell on the ground.
Before his fingers touched the handle of the knife, Fang Wujiu stepped on it.
He asked again.
"Why don't you fight back?"
Xiao Xixi's eyes turned red.
Qin Zhong was supported by two guards at this time, and his face turned pale due to excessive blood loss.
He gnashed his teeth and yelled, "Fang, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and cut all the tendons in her hands and feet, then arrest her and torture her severely. I don't believe you can't get the antidote out of her!"
Fang Wujiu ignored the roar of the person behind him and continued to stare at Xiao Xixi.
"You can obviously beat me, why don't you fight back?"
His speaking speed was still the same as usual, neither fast nor slow, and unhurried.
But there is an unusual paranoia.
It seems that the answer to this question is very important to him.
Xiao Xixi sniffed, with a hint of tears in her voice.
"I can't bear to do that to you."
Fang Wujiu: "We each serve our own masters and are rivals to the death."
Xiao Xixi stopped talking again, tears streaming down her eyes.
Fang Wujiu: "Fighting for the throne is not a child's game. If you continue to be as indecisive as you are now, you will not only kill yourself, but also your crown prince."
Xiao Xixi cried even harder when she thought of the prince's current situation.
Fang Wujiu: "Rather than letting you die in the hands of others, it would be better for me to kill you myself. This would also be considered as fulfilling the relationship between us as senior brothers and sisters."
He exerted force in his hand and stabbed the tip of the sword towards her throat!
Xiao Xixi's pupils constricted.
The tip of the sword in sight quickly grew larger.
He did not hold back when he struck the sword.
He really wanted to kill her!
Xiao Xixi didn't want to die, she had to escape alive.
She wants to find the prince and tell him the truth.
She couldn't let the prince face the pain alone.
At the critical moment, Xiao Xixi raised his hands and tightly grasped the sword with his palms.
The tip of the sword was forced to stop an inch away from her neck and could not fall any further.
She raised her leg and swept it towards Fang Wujiu's knee!
The sword in Fang Wujiu's hand was stuck and could not be pulled out.
In order to avoid the attack, he could only loosen the hilt of the sword and take two steps back.
Xiao Xixi turned over and stood up.
Fang Wujiu grabbed a guard's sword and rushed forward again, fighting with Xiao Xixi.
Xiao Xixi's eyes were red and her face was full of tears.
It looks so pitiful.
But her movements were not pitiful at all, and every move was full of murderous intent.
She and the prince are one, she cannot die, and she cannot retreat!
The long sword in his hand was so powerful that Fang Wujiu was forced to retreat again and again.
The sword in his hand was knocked to the ground and his shoulder was pierced by a sword!
Xiao Xixi came to her senses suddenly when she saw his shoulder stained with blood.
She panicked and drew back her sword.
Fang Wujiu covered the wound on his shoulder, pulled the corner of his mouth and gave a bitter smile, his eyes showing both relief and helplessness.
"In terms of martial arts, I am indeed no match for you."
The duel between the two of them just now was so exciting that the guards were stunned.
Until Qin Zhong roared: "Are you stupid? Why don't you take her down quickly?!"
The guards around suddenly woke up as if from a dream, and immediately rushed forward, wanting to take down Xiao Xixi by relying on their numbers.
At this moment, thick smoke billowed from the direction of the front yard!
Someone is shouting.
"The study is flooded! Come put out the fire!"
The study was a strategic location, housing many important confidential documents. Xie Chuxue hurriedly directed the guards to put out the fire.
Soon there was another shout from the backyard.
"The warehouse is on fire! All our money and food are in the warehouse, come and put out the fire!"
The guards rushed to put out the fire.
Qin Zhong shouted angrily, "Why are you panicking? Don't run around. This is a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain. Hurry up and catch this woman!"
If he hadn't been injured and unable to do anything, he would have rushed forward to catch the man.
Xiao Xixi risked getting hurt, rushed out of the encirclement and jumped onto the wall.
Qin Zhong sent people to chase after him.
But when the guards climbed over the city wall, they found that Xiao Xixi had already escaped in a carriage.
The person in charge of driving the carriage was Zhao Xian.
He looked back at Concubine Xiao who was sitting in the carriage and asked nervously.
"My lady, are you injured?"
Xiao Xixi covered her bleeding arm, leaned against the car wall, and said weakly, "I just got some minor injuries."
The carriage ran through two streets and met up with a dozen other Yulin Guards.
They were the ones who set fire to Canglan Garden just now.
After the two sides met, they headed straight for Xuande Gate.
