Shen Yinong sighed, "I almost became a target." Looking up and seeing the man's bleeding arm, she was instantly distracted. He was injured just now because he was trying to protect her.

Shen Yi reacted quickly and took out her pistol in the chaos.

The next second, another wave of hidden arrows whizzed in from the window. Outside, Fu Cang and Fu Ying were already shouting to protect their master, and the sound of chaotic swords clashing could be heard.

Then a group of black-clad, masked killers broke in through the window, slashing at them with swords in hand, with the intent to kill them.

Shen Yinong was wearing an ordinary white short-sleeved T-shirt and high-waisted wide-leg pants. The T-shirt was short, revealing a little bit of her waist, so when Xiao Yinhuan hugged her, his strong hand touched her skin.

A soft waist under the palm.

As delicate as jade, but warmer and smoother than jade.

Shen Yinong was too nervous to even react to the abnormality. She only saw the flash of swords and sabers. Xiao Yinhuan always protected her and held her in his arms to avoid several attacks.

But there were too many people on the other side, and Shen Yinong realized that if he was protecting her, she couldn't use her full strength to deal with those people, so she wanted to break free.

"Don't move." Xiao Yinhuan hugged him tighter and asked, "Do you know martial arts?"

"will not."

Xiao Yinhuan was amused by her. "You dare to move? Their knives don't have eyes. Aren't you afraid of being stabbed into a hedgehog by the sword? Just stay behind me."

"If you protect me, we can't deal with those people. Please let me go."

"What is your name?"

It's already this time and you're still asking this?

"Shen Yinong."

"Shen Yinong, watch carefully, I'm not that weak."

As he spoke, he moved to the table and pulled out the long sword placed on it. He lowered the corner of his mouth, uttered a sigh, and made his move. The sword only lightly tapped the ground, and wherever it touched, the assassins fell to the ground, and the sword was soon stained with blood.

It was the first time Shen Yinong saw such a scene of fighting and killing, and it was too shocking.

All the assassins were killed. Xiao Yinhuan let her go, squatted on the ground, and pulled down the black cloth that covered their faces. At this time, several men in black broke in through the window, and their movements were so fast that they were unexpected.

Xiao Yinhuan's eyes flashed with a faint light, and the flying knife was about to be launched, but he didn't expect Shen Yinong to say be careful, pull him behind him, then raise a black thing in his hand, aim at those people, and pull a switch.

With a few loud "bang, bang, bang" sounds, the three people who were about to chop over immediately fell to the ground.

Her shoulders also shook back a few times due to the recoil of the gun.

A bloody hole was punched in the forehead of the three men, and blood spurted out. The sharp sword that almost touched Xiao Yinhuan's chest also fell to the ground with a clang.

When the gunshot sounded, Xiao Yinhuan's heart also shook.

He stood in the dim light and looked at Shen Yinong. She was quiet and had her hair in a high ponytail. At this moment, the ponytail was swaying slightly in the wind outside the window, brushing against his Adam's apple bit by bit.

It felt like someone was scratching his heart with a brush, making him feel itchy and numb.

She had her back to him. She was so small, but she stood in front of him, as if to block the sword for him.

She clearly had no martial arts skills, but when someone raised a butcher knife towards her, she blocked the tip of the knife for him.

Today it is today.

There are actually people who would protect him openly and honestly.

This feeling of being protected by someone is so strange and yet so fascinating.

No one except his mother had ever protected him like this.

He lived like a dog in a dark hell, where he was severely humiliated, abused and ridiculed. Everyone stabbed him with knives, but he was always the first to rush forward.

Xiao Yinhuan's eyes were reflected in the candlelight on the table. A cluster of flames jumped into the depths of his eyes, burning fiercely and spreading like wildfire.

"Hit it!" Shen Yinong looked at the three people who fell down, glanced at his pistol, and said with some pride, "Hit right between their eyebrows!"

Shen Yinong had only used a gun to shoot animals. This was in ancient times, and there were all kinds of assassinations. If she didn't shoot, she would be the one to die.

Shen Yinong was still filled with joy at having hit the target. "If my fourth brother saw this, he would definitely be proud of me."

Shen Yinong turned around and said, "Xiao Yinhuan, are you okay?"

When she turned around and met Xiao Yinhuan's eyes, she saw that there was a light in his eyes, which was inexplicably hot. His eyes locked onto her tightly. She stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, "Hey, are you scared silly?"

Xiao Yinhuan's feathered crow half-dropped, his eyes fell on her pistol. Shen Yinong quickly put the gun behind his back and looked at him vigilantly, "Hey, I saved your life, you don't want to repay my kindness with hatred and steal my things, right?"

"I won't steal yours."

If he wanted, she couldn't hide it.

Seeing her baby look, her eyes full of vigilance, Xiao Yinhuan rarely did not tease her. Her cheeks were flushed red, like newly ripe lychees, making people want to pinch them.

He did the same, pinching her gently, his eyes dark and gloomy as he looked at her, "That sword has no eyes, isn't it afraid of death? How dare you stand in front of me and protect me without any martial arts skills?"

Afraid of death.

How can I not be afraid?

But if you died, the jade pendant would be missing and I wouldn't be able to find it. I would be trapped here, unable to travel back. That would be worse than death, right?

"Just now an arrow was shot in, and you saved me. Otherwise, I wouldn't have reacted and would have been shot by the arrow."

Shen Yinong lowered her head and locked the zipper of her bag. "You rescued me from the forest before. This time, consider it as my repayment for saving my life."

"Am I awesome?" Shen Yinong raised his eyebrows at Xiao Yinhuan, looking high-spirited and with bright eyes.

Well, the little girl is quite proud.

She didn't know that no one in the world could kill him. He put the flying knife into his sleeve and hummed, agreeing with a rare coaxing tone, "Great."

At this moment, Fu Cang and Fu Ying rushed in. They had heard the gunshot just now. They were so scared that they immediately asked, "Is the master injured?"

Xiao Yinhuan took a look at Shen Yinong's short-sleeved shirt and the two exposed arms, pulled her behind him, and said, "Turn around."

Fu Cang and Fu Ying quickly stopped and turned around. At a glance, they seemed to see a girl.

Both of them were horrified.

How did that girl come here?

"Tell the people below not to look for Miss Shen anymore, she's back."

Fu Cang and Fu Ying looked at each other, really confused as to how this girl could suddenly appear right under their noses.

"Oh, good."

"Who are these killers?"

"They are not from Jin. The mastermind behind this has not yet been found. These people all died after swallowing poison. They are well-trained."

"Go check."

The two of them turned around quickly.

There were corpses scattered all over the room, and the room was considered a ruin.

Shen Yinong took out the gun and looked at Xiao Yinhuan, "I have a magic weapon. You have to admit that I am powerful. I can kill people from a long distance without them being seen."

Xiao Yinhuan raised an eyebrow, "So?"

"Show me the jade pendant again."

The image of the little girl resolutely protecting him behind her entered his mind, and this time he said straightforwardly, "Okay."
