Chapter 478 The Man in Black Comes Again

"Cheng Wan is much more difficult to deal with than we anticipated. If we want to successfully get rid of Cheng Wan, relying on the two of us to confront him head-on is tantamount to seeking death."

The man in black who had just returned here was anxious: "What do you mean? The master's order is to kill Cheng Wan at all costs! You want to disobey?!"

The other man in black shook his head. "Of course we must do everything we can to fulfill our master's orders. Cough! Cough!" The man in black couldn't help but cough twice, coughing up blood foam. "Let's leave here first. Cheng Wan may catch up at any time."

Just as the two men in black were about to leave, a voice that made their hair stand on end rang out.

"Sorry, I've already caught up~"

"run!"

The injured man in black acted decisively and made the same choice as before.

One person held Cheng Wan back, while the other quickly escaped.

Cheng Wan threw a dagger at the horse present, hitting it in the neck, and the horse fell to the ground.

The man in black who was about to ride a horse had no choice but to run.

The two men in black who stayed behind to stop Cheng Wan were different, but their fates were the same.

After a while, the remaining man in black was killed by Cheng Wan in a quick and efficient manner.

At this point, the only one left of the twenty secret guards sent by Prince Jing was the one who had just escaped.

After Cheng Wan quickly dealt with the last secret guard blocking the way, he decisively chased after him.

After a long fight, Cheng Wan was already injured, so it was not easy to chase an uninjured royal guard.

Fortunately, thanks to Jinjin, Cheng Wan didn't lose the person.

"Master, seven new men in black have appeared ahead!"

Ok? !

In the darkness of the night, Cheng Wan's pupils suddenly shrank, and his body, which was moving rapidly, suddenly stopped.

Cheng Wan looked at the direction where the man in black disappeared and gritted his teeth unwillingly.

The identities of the seven new men in black are unknown, and she can't afford to take the risk.

What if those seven men in black were in the same group as the previous men in black? If she chased them, with her current physical condition, it would be difficult for her to escape unscathed, let alone kill them.

Cheng Wan took a deep breath and planned to leave here carefully.

"Wait..." Jin Jin's voice was a little hesitant: "Master, those new guys in black don't seem to be in the same group as the guy in black we're chasing."

Cheng Wan's eyes lit up, and he put his foot down again: "What's going on?"

"They started fighting!"

Jin Jin's voice rose, and Cheng Wan's eyes became brighter.

"Eh? He's dead."

Cheng Wan: “…” Died so quickly.

"The man in black we were chasing is dead?"

"Yes, he was killed in two quick blows by the new gang of men in black."

Cheng Wan's breathing couldn't help but become lighter, and his heart slowly lifted.

The opponent's origin is unknown, but he seems to be quite capable in fighting.

Withdraw first.

Cheng Wan raised his foot for the second time, ready to turn around and leave.

"Wait, Master, the new man in black seems to be in the same group with you."

Ok? ? ?

Cheng Wan put his foot down in a daze.

"Master, those men in black seem to be... here to protect you."

Cheng Wan blinked a few times, his brain working rapidly.

To protect her?

"How to say?"

Jin Jin's voice was filled with conviction this time. "Master, Jin Jin is certain they are not your enemies. One of the men in black suggested that killing them all would be the best way to protect Marquis Zhaoping. Then the leading man in black stopped him, saying our order was to help Marquis Zhaoping if he couldn't handle it, and not to act on his own."

Cheng Wan frowned, his face showing a thoughtful look.

Gu Yan's people?

impossible.

If they were Gu Yan's men, it would be impossible for them to show up now.

Even more unlikely is the order to wait until she can't cope before helping her.

If it’s not Gu Yan, then who else could it be?

Who would send so many experts to protect her?

Also, who could send out so many experts… Cheng Wan’s pupils dilated slightly.

"Prince!"

"Prince Jing!"

Cheng Wan's voice and Jin Jin's voice sounded at the same time.

"Master! That 'His Highness' is Prince Jing!"
