The masked man was stunned, obviously not expecting that Ye Chutang would say such words at such a critical moment.
Then he sneered: "It doesn't matter. You won't be able to get out of this alley today anyway."
He had already seen that although Ye Chutang's breathing was light, it did not look like he had any internal strength.
——What martial arts? What a joke.
He was really too cautious. No matter how famous Ye Chutang was, she was just a woman after all.
Even her father Ye Zheng was just a civil official. What skills could he teach Ye Chutang?
As he spoke, he drew the sword from his waist, revealing its cold edge!
Ye Chutang's eyes swept across the edge of his sword, and his eyebrows raised slightly.
"Are you so confident in yourself?"
The tone sounded really disrespectful to the other party.
"Now that death is imminent, there's no need to be strong and calm, right?" He said with sarcasm in his eyes, "I was careless at the beginning and let you escape. Sending you to see Ye Zheng today can be regarded as fulfilling your dream of a father-daughter reunion!"
There was still frost on the corners of Ye Chutang's eyes and eyebrows, and his eyes seemed to be soaked in ice and snow.
Those obsidian-like black and clear eyes seemed to be tinged with a darker coldness at this moment, and there was a faint murderous intent that was frightening.
Murderous intent?
The masked man was stunned for a moment, and then he thought he was thinking too much.
She is just a weak woman who can't even tie a chicken! How could she have any murderous intentions! ?
He must be so scared that he looks stunned!
The next moment, Ye Chutang nodded slightly: "Okay."
The masked man was confused for a moment: "Also? What is she talking about?"
Unexpectedly, Ye Chutang got off the carriage right after that!
Xiaowu grabbed her sleeve tightly, with a look of shock still on his pale face.
Ye Chutang turned around and patted her hand soothingly: "Don't worry, Sister promises to solve it quickly."
Xiaowu was relieved at this moment.
Ye Chutang raised his hand to lower the curtain, but was rejected by Xiaowu.
Her chubby little hands grasped the curtain, and the next moment she got out of the carriage and sat next to the coachman.
Ye Chutang was slightly surprised.
"Xiaowu?"
As if he guessed what she wanted to say, Xiaowu shook his head stubbornly.
——I won’t go back to the carriage! I’ll just stay here and watch my sister! Waiting for my sister!
When their eyes met, Ye Chutang unexpectedly saw a rare hint of stubbornness in her eyes.
She thought about it for a moment, and then did not force him. She just reminded him, "If you feel uncomfortable, just go back to the carriage, understand?"
Xiaowu is not a flower raised in a greenhouse. She cannot bear to see blood or killing.
In fact, the little girl has seen countless similar scenes in the past few years.
Only the carriage...
She tilted her head slightly. A dart had pierced deeply into the driver's forehead. Bright red blood was slowly seeping out. His head tilted weakly to the side, and it was obvious that he was dead.
To be able to kill with one strike from such a distance, the opponent is obviously very powerful.
He came with the determination to kill her.
Ye Chutang frowned.
Xiaowu obviously noticed all this. She was sitting in the small space next to the driver, almost enveloped by the sweet and fishy smell of blood, and her little face became even paler.
It felt like someone was hitting her head with a hammer over and over again, causing extreme pain.
She endured the pain, clenched her hands, then raised her little face and smiled at Ye Chutang.
——Sister, I will wait for you here obediently.
Ye Chutang felt as if his heart was stabbed hard by something.
This feeling is strange yet familiar. Three years ago, it was also a cold winter, a carriage, and warm blood.
The little ball had no idea what was going on and instinctively grabbed the corner of her clothes, his eyes red and full of fear and panic.
And the unconditional and deepest dependence.
Ye Chutang's eyebrows softened, the corners of his lips slightly curved, and he patted her little head.
"I promise you, I will take you to eat the red date and chestnut cake at Lanyue Tower later."
The masked man watched coldly and found it all funny.
At this time, he was still talking nonsense and talking about what to eat!
"Sisters really love each other. Don't worry, after you die, we promise to send your sister off with you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly drew his sword and rushed straight towards Ye Chutang!
Very fast!
The swift wind is blowing towards you!
However, Ye Chutang stood still, not dodging or evading, but just slightly tilting his head:
"Aren't you going to take action yet?"
The masked man was startled: Who is she talking to! ?
They had already ambushed here last night to ensure that no one would pass by here and would not notice what was happening here.
Ye Chutang is...
suddenly!
A sharp sound of breaking through the air came!
The masked man's heart skipped a beat and he subconsciously raised his sword to block!
Hiss—clang!
The powerful impact forced him to stop. He instinctively turned his wrist and swung his sword to relieve the force. He saw the sharp arrow feather brushing past the sword and piercing into the bluestone floor with a "whoosh" sound!
The masked man's eyelids twitched violently.
Such power! The person who did it is definitely not ordinary!
He immediately raised his head and looked in the direction where the arrow came from: "Who!? You dare to delay my business? Are you looking for death?"
At the same time, several figures quickly jumped out from behind him - these people were originally guarding the surroundings, and when they realized something was wrong, they all came over.
Including the masked man at the beginning, there are five in total.
Ye Chutang glanced at them one by one, smiling: "It seems that you really don't take me seriously. Compared with the last time, this is much smaller in scale."
The masked man found it extremely absurd for a moment - at what time did she still have the leisure to do this!
But he also heard the sarcasm in these words. Ye Chutang obviously did not take them seriously.
Are you relying on someone?!
The masked man didn't care about Ye Chutang and his eyes quickly swept over the arrow.
The arrow was dark all over, the arrowhead was sharp and pointed, and the feathers were black with red. It was obvious that it was very expensive.
The masked man was shocked - this was definitely not an arrow that ordinary people could use!
This is obvious, this is obvious...
A figure appeared silently.
He was wearing a black suit and had a slender figure.
He looks to be around thirty years old, with an ordinary face, the kind that you would easily overlook in a crowd.
He clasped his fists towards Ye Chutang and said, "I'm sorry to have frightened Miss Ye Er."
Ye Chutang shook his head: "The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. It is always difficult to guard against a sneak attack."
Seeing that Ye Chutang had no intention of blaming him, the man breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at the masked men in black.
Seeing this scene, the masked man was already confused.
——What on earth is going on!?
This man was obviously very skilled. It was reasonable for him to know the masters in Beijing. Who was this man?!
He looked at the arrow again and felt that it seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember where it was.
He stopped thinking about it when he couldn't remember it. He looked at Ye Chutang again and sneered, "No wonder you are so confident. So you have a secret guard? But do you think that having such a person protecting you can keep you safe?"
Ye Chutang smiled slightly: "Of course not."
"What?" The man in black was stunned, obviously not expecting her to answer like this.
Ye Chutang turned his head and looked at the man.
"They seem to think it's no fun to fight you alone."
"How about inviting others to join us?" (End of this chapter)
