Suddenly an arrow shot towards them, Hua Chunran was wide-eyed and held herself back with all her might not screaming in panic. Zhao Xifeng instantly moved quickly closer towards him to protect him.
" And Yin, take Miss into the carriage." she ordered slowly. And Yin nodded nervously and pulled Hua Chunran running towards the carriage.
Jiang Zhen and the others instantly took out their swords from the scabbard. So did two horse-drawn chariot drivers who also seem to have martial arts .
The arrow appeared to be just a warning, moments later a dozen masked men directly attacked them without further ado.
The battle was inevitable.Seven men against fifteen attackers. Amidst the battle Zhao Xifeng was endlessly watching Hua Chunran in the horse carriage.
Zhao Xifeng quickly dropped his opponent and rushed to attack the second and third opponents .
Someone who seemed to be their leader tried to attack Zhao Xifeng with a secret weapon. Zhao Xifeng felt danger approaching as he heard the sound of wind whistling towards him. With lightning fast he dodged and managed to escape death .
Seeing that his target had escaped, the person directly lunged towards Zhao Xifeng, aiming for the deadly point. Zhao Xifeng scrunched his forehead, the other party seemed to be eager to aim for his life . It seemed like the other party was not an ordinary robber that was often encountered in the forest.
The sound of swords clashing together made a gripping atmosphere for Hua Chunran and Dan Yin who were inside the carriage. Suddenly from the side , the wall of the horse carriage split open and a person covering his face with black cloth instantly ambushed and punched Dan Yin and Hua Chunran into unconsciousness.
The man immediately carried Hua Chunran over his shoulder and prepared to flee. At this moment Zhao Xifeng saw Hua Chunran in immediate danger charging towards the man. He had not cared about his opponent before.
But the man carrying Hua Chunran managed to escape from his attack and fled as fast as lightning.
Jiang Zhen and the others were flabbergasted to see their lady successfully kidnapped. Furious they killed their attackers one by one. The smell of blood spread in the dark night in the middle of the forest.
Zhao Xifeng continued to chase, he then whistled giving a sign as his seven secret guards appeared and directly surrounded the man carrying Hua Chunran.
The man was cornered on the edge of the cliff, he had not expected Zhao Xifeng would have another guard helping him. Realizing she would not be able to escape easily, she jumped off the cliff without hesitation by bringing Hua Chunran who was still in a fainting state.
Zhao Xifeng winked a dangerous eye and immediately jumped in with them.
" Youth!!" his secret guards exclaimed stifledly, they were wide-eyed not expecting Zhao Xifeng to take the plunge.
" Quick find a way down to the bottom of the cliff, we must find the master." orders one of them. The others nodded and rushed down the cliff .
The man who jumped carrying Hua Chunran seemed to be trying to survive on the cliff by hanging on the vines. But since he brought Hua Chunran with him he endured with great difficulty. This woman must not die because it is very useful for her master.
The science of lightening Zhao Xifeng's body was excellent, he had no trouble even having to hang on the vines and descend the cliff quickly towards the man .
The man looked frantically unexpectedly Zhao Xifeng chased him even to the bottom of the cliff.
"Don't come any closer, or I'll throw this woman down." the man threatened a little panic. Of course he was just threatening because he did not dare to kill Hua Chunran.
"Try it if you dare." Zhao Xifeng seemed to be able to read what the man was thinking.
Zhao Xifeng threw the severed vines in his hands, and wrapped around Hua Chunran's body accurately. Zhao Xifeng pulled Hua Chunran's body towards him. After successfully capturing Hua Chunran's body he then descended the cliff slowly.
Arriving under the cliff, the,.Zhao Xifeng saw that the fallen man had already been lying dead on the rocks below.
Zhao Xifeng stared at the corpse grimly. Since that person was dead, he could not figure out who sent the assassins.
Zhao Xifeng then stepped away from the place looking for a safe place to check on Hua Chunran's state. Hua Chunran was still unconscious.
The night was very dark, as cultivator Zhao Xifeng had sharper eyesight than an ordinary person, so it was not a problem for him to walk in the dark night.
Near the rocky river, Zhao Xifeng decided to stop there.Zhao Xifeng put Hua Chunran on his lap and started checking his pulse . Zhao Xifeng breathed a sigh of relief knowing Hua Chunran had only fainted from being in a stupor.
After releasing the tootokan on Hua Chunran's body, the girl slowly regained her senses and opened her eyelids. The dark night was only illuminated by the starlight, he saw a figure of a face on it. Because of his position lying on top of Zhao Xifeng's lap so Zhao Xifeng's face was staring at him right above him.
Hua Chunran was surprised that she could not immediately recognize whose face it was because it was dark. His adrenaline raced strongly and he was about to get up and escape, but a pair of sturdy hands held his body firmly.
" So calm, this is my servant.."
" Zhao Xifeng? are you this ?" Hua Chunran felt a little calm hearing a familiar voice.
" This is true..."
Hua Chunran sighed in relief "Ah I guess who ? it's dark."
"We fell to the bottom of the cliff, I will look for dry wood first to start a fire. Miss wait here a minute, don't go anywhere." Zhao Xifeng then released Hua Chunran's body and stood up about to leave.
But Hua Chunran's hand directly holding the tip of her shirt stopped her steps.
"Don't leave me alone, I'm coming ..."
" but..."
" What if those people find me or there's a beast, I can't protect myself.." Hua Chunran felt terrified if she had to be left alone in this darkness.
Zhao Xifeng thought Hua Chunran's words had a point as well so he agreed "Alright, walk behind the servant "Zhao Xifeng then start stepping about to look for dry wood.
Hua Chunran rushed to compensate for Zhao Xifeng's footsteps. Because the night was dark without any illumination as an ordinary human being without any martial skills he could not see clearly.
Fearing to lose track of Zhao Xifeng, Hua Chunran held tightly onto the back end of Zhao Xifeng's shirt. Zhao Xifeng who felt his clothes in tight grip Hua Chunran was stunned. He felt a strange feeling in his heart.
This lady......
