Mu Chenshuang stared at the man in front of her in horror, her heart pounding uncontrollably, her mind going blank for a moment.
The musky scent emanating from him became even stronger and more alluring at this moment, and the originally cold atmosphere around him gradually became restless and passionate.
At that moment, all she felt was the moist breath from the man's lips filling her entire mouth.
Unintentionally.
The black veil that had been covering the man's eyes slipped down, revealing a pair of deep, golden eyes that were dazzling and captivating against the cold, dark backdrop.
Mu Chenshuang opened her eyes wide and met those bewitching golden eyes.
This moment.
Mu Chenshuang felt her heart pounding fiercely, as if her mind was completely captivated by it.
But it was only for a brief moment before Mu Chenshuang came to her senses. Her rationality gradually returned, and she raised her hand, her fingers about to land on a certain acupoint on Fu Junheng's neck.
The man suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her towards his chest, briefly releasing her lips.
"Don't move!"
A hoarse yet serious voice rang out.
Mu Chenshuang's hand, which was raised in mid-air, froze. Then she sensed the murderous aura that was constantly gathering around her.
The next second.
Several sharp arrows burst from the crossbow and flew towards the two of them.
Fu Junheng held the woman's waist without letting go. He raised his left hand, gathering a powerful internal force in his palm, and used it to control the incoming arrow. With another force, the arrow was sent flying back.
Someone was hit by an arrow and cried out in pain, but most of the retaliatory arrows were dodged by the opponent.
"Death!"
The shadowy figure in the darkness chased after the attacker.
In an instant, swords clashed, and the air was thick with the stench of blood in the cold wind; the atmosphere was heavy with murderous intent.
Mu Chenshuang couldn't see the other party's movements, but she could keenly hear the sounds of fierce fighting.
Clearly, the other party didn't want to get entangled any longer and quickly fled.
After the smell of blood dissipated, the surrounding atmosphere gradually calmed down, and the quiet silence was so profound that one could hear the rustling of leaves in the wind.
“Crown Prince Junheng, you may let go now,” Mu Chenshuang said, breaking the silence.
Fu Junheng looked down at her and withdrew his hand.
Mu Chenshuang took a step forward, her back to the man, and asked, "What was Crown Prince Junheng's intention just now?"
Fu Junheng looked at the woman's retreating figure and explained in a deep voice, "Just now, in order to confuse the enemy and make them lower their guard and expose their true colors, I had no choice but to do it in a moment of desperation."
The words were spoken.
Mu Chenshuang lowered her eyelids slightly.
At that moment, she didn't even know what was causing her low spirits. After trying her best to calm herself down, she asked, "When did you find them?"
When she chased after them, she didn't notice anyone else around her except for the fleeing man in black.
"I realized it just as I arrived here."
"Does Crown Prince Junheng know who the other party is?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the other party should be a shadow agent from the White Lotus Sect."
The White Lotus Sect is the most renowned assassin organization in the martial arts world, with a strict hierarchy within the organization, and all members are top-notch masters.
These shadow figures are second-tier experts within the organization. Even the Chengtianjian might not be their match. Shadow figures are particularly adept at concealing their aura. If they do not take the initiative to attack, even if one's martial arts are highly skilled, it is difficult to determine their location if one is not careful.
The assassin who previously tried to kill Dr. Li was just an ordinary assassin.
This time, the assassination attempt on her is intended to be deadly.
Is it Lu Wei?
Just as she was shocked and wondering how capable Lu Wei was to bribe the White Lotus Sect's shadowy figures to assassinate her.
Fu Junheng said, "They came for me."
