Wang Peng's men chased Xiao Xuan for a while and quickly caught up. They were only a few meters apart. He narrowed his cunning eyes and stared intently at Xiao Xuan, then a sinister smile appeared on his face.
"Surround that carriage for me!"
Wang Peng waved his hand, and his men immediately stepped forward, overtaking Xiao Xuan and blocking his way.
Wang Peng followed closely behind, also riding his horse to the front of the carriage. By the light of the torch, Wang Peng leaned his head forward.
But the person in front of him had a fierce look in his eyes, and the veins on his forehead were faintly visible. His already ugly and frightening face was now even more ferocious and dark.
Xiao Xuan coldly raised his eyes, saw the person in front of him clearly, and quickly drew his long sword from his waist, pointing it directly at Wang Peng opposite him.
Facing this group of about a hundred people, Xiao Xuan was not intimidated. He merely glanced at them casually and then ordered, "Make way!"
The man's voice was cold and terrifying, like a messenger from the abyss. His two short words carried an undeniable pressure. Upon hearing this, Wang Peng and the others felt a jolt in their hearts, as if a nerve had been tugged.
However, after a brief moment of fear, Wang Peng quickly scanned the area and found that there was no one else in front of him except for the ugly woman.
He couldn't help but stroke his beard in surprise, somewhat suspicious. He had thought he would catch Xiao Xuan, but he never expected to encounter such an ugly woman.
"Walking alone at night when you're that ugly, are you trying to scare people to death?!"
Wang Peng was somewhat annoyed. He had been riding his horse at full speed for so long, and not only had he failed to catch Xiao Xuan, but he had also run into a woman who was so ugly that she was truly disgusting.
"My ugliness is none of your business. Get lost if you don't want to die!"
Xiao Xuan was worried about Ning Yin's health and didn't want to waste any more time with this group of people.
Wang Peng was already displeased, and Xiao Xuan's order made his expression even uglier. He sneered, tugged at the reins, took two steps forward, and without saying a word, lashed out with his whip at Xiao Xuan's face.
Xiao Xuan reacted swiftly, his longsword touching Wang Peng's whip, and with just a slight tug, he brought the man down from his horse.
Wang Peng slammed his head into the ground, hitting a rock and instantly bleeding profusely from his head, leaving him unrecognizable.
"I said, get out of the way!"
Xiao Xuan spoke again, and the surrounding constables were stunned for a moment before jumping off their horses and helping Wang Peng up. Wang Peng covered his head, which had been hit by a stone, with his hands, his eyes blazing with anger.
"You bitch, how dare you hit me! Men, strip her naked!"
Wang Peng cried out in pain as he spoke.
Xiao Xuanli's deep eyes were filled with even more murderous intent, making anyone who looked at them feel terrified.
Before the group could react, the man swiftly made his move, neatly killing several constables blocking his path. The road ahead was clear, and Xiao Xuan quickly spurred his horse to cross, but the carriage got stuck in a ditch.
In addition, the horse had run a long way today and was frightened, so it now looks like it wants to go on strike.
Xiao Xuan whipped the horse's rump hard, but it remained motionless.
Seeing that the group had reacted and were about to slash at him with their gleaming broadswords, Xiao Xuan leaped off the carriage and swiftly took the lives of several more people.
The group assumed that Xiao Xuan was the only person in the carriage, so they all surrounded him.
"You bitch, surrender now or I might leave you a whole corpse!"
Wang Peng clutched his wound, yelling in pain, "Quick, grab her! Don't let her get away!"
Just as Xiao Xuan was fighting fiercely with the constables, Wang Peng suddenly turned his gaze toward the carriage.
He's always been greedy, and he was thinking that there might be some gold or silver treasures in the carriage. He came out today and got nothing, and even got his image ruined because of it. So he had to see if he could plunder some money.
Thinking it over, Wang Peng smiled ruthlessly and limped toward the carriage.
At this moment, Ning Yin's lower abdomen was getting increasingly painful. She hunched over, tightly protecting her lower abdomen, but because the pain was too intense, Ning Yin was unable to support herself to go out and check on Xiao Xuan's condition.
The next second, she felt a trickle of liquid slowly seeping from her lower body. Ning Yin's heart skipped a beat, and she knew something was terribly wrong.
Was she going to die here today, along with her child and Xiao Xuan? She gritted her teeth and tried to lift the curtain to take a look, but as soon as she moved to the carriage door, she felt the carriage sink.
"Let me see if this wretched woman has any money!"
Wang Peng muttered to himself and was about to lift the curtain when Ning Yin heard the strange man's voice. Her whole body tensed up, and she grabbed the water jug and huddled by the carriage.
She was already in a lot of pain, but now she even had to be careful when she breathed. Then, Wang Peng actually lifted the curtain.
Inside the dimly lit carriage, Ning Yin used all her strength to slam her head down hard on Wang Peng's head. Wang Peng was caught off guard, and his already dizzy head was instantly made even more dazed by the blow.
"Damn it, who's in there?!"
He had just uttered a curse when Ning Yin seized the opportunity to strike him on the head again. Wang Peng screamed in pain and immediately drew a dagger from his waist, hacking wildly inside.
Ning Yin hurriedly retreated. Wang Peng smelled the feminine fragrance on Ning Yin's body, and his eyes lit up immediately. He let out a lewd laugh.
"So that's why there was a beauty hiding inside! You dare to hit me? I'll deal with you right now!"
The dagger in Wang Peng's hand gleamed coldly as he approached Ning Yin step by step. Ning Yin had nowhere to retreat and could only glare fiercely at the man with weak eyes.
"Sweetie, take off your clothes, or I'll sell you to a brothel!"
