In terms of family background, Liang Yuanzhao's identity was the most sensitive among the four adults and one child present.

Not to mention Prince Ning's status in the court, even the military power of the Qingyan Army held by his eldest brother is enough to make him a chess piece that could affect the entire body.

The second is Li Peiyan.

Although Li Peiyan usually keeps a low profile and has little presence, the Li family behind him cannot but make people fear him.

After all, the Li family is considered the overlord of the southwest. If something happens to Li Peiyan in Beijing, the governor of the southwest will lead his troops north in anger, and it is possible that there will be another bloody storm that day.

But the killer's target today was not Liang Yuanzhao or Li Peiyan, but the young master of the Chengyi family who was rich but powerless, which made people puzzled.

Realizing that the situation was not good, Li Peiyan held Zhao Mianmian in his arms and quickly asked a few people to leave the enclosure and woods.

A few people changed direction, shook the reins, and wanted to continue walking towards the exit.

However, before they could run a few more steps, the remaining three ponies were pierced like hedgehogs by the men in black in the tree and fell to the ground wailing.

"Don't ride anymore, get off and run!!"

When the horse fell to the ground, Li Peiyan pulled Zhao Mianmian up.

He carried Zhao Mianmian on his back and ran towards the exit without looking back.

Before Zhao Mianmian could react, Li Peiyan made her so dizzy that she couldn't even utter a word.

[Oh my god, this is exciting! ]

[Yue~ Host, what are you doing? The public screen is shaking so much that it makes me dizzy. ]

[Hahaha, just bear with the dizziness, the host is running for his life! ]

[Damn, I want to complain, why can this live broadcast only be viewed from the anchor's perspective? Can't we have a God's perspective? ? ]

[Alright, alright, just be content with what you guys have to watch. With the little money you guys give, the anchor can't even get promoted to level 4, so what else do you want?]

[Is it a question of whether or not to reach level 4? At the rate they are running, I think the anchor may be finished today.]

[Not really. The man in black probably wasn't targeting her. She was just an unlucky person who got caught up in the disaster. If she keeps her mouth shut, she won't lose her life.]

[Hehe, if I were the killer, I would wipe out the entire clan, all sharks~~~]

[It's already this late, so stop being such a pessimist. ]

Zhao Mianmian was so annoyed by Li Peiyan that she wanted to vomit. She didn't even bother to look at what the audience in her live broadcast room were saying in the barrage.

When she calmed down a little, she saw several men in black jumping down from the tree in front of her.

The man in black raised his bow and arrow at the two men without saying a word. After a "whoosh" sound, a straight arrow shot into the mud under their feet.

"Damn it! The ghost is still here!!"

Li Peiyan's face darkened. He took a step back and barely avoided the cold arrow.

Seeing that the black-clad killer had blocked the way, Li Peiyan did not force his way in. Instead, he took Zhao Mianmian and changed direction without saying a word and continued to escape.

Li Peiyan was running and sweating all over. Zhao Mianmian glanced at the man in black under the tree and said "eh" in Li Peiyan's ear.

Li Peiyan didn't have time to care about her, but the audience in the live broadcast room heard it and asked her:

【What happened? What happened? ? 】

Zhao Mianmian didn't beat around the bush and typed directly on the public screen:

[I seem to have seen the man in black who shot arrows at us before.]

The audience felt their intelligence was insulted:

[No, no? ? Her face is covered like this, where have you seen her before? ? ? ]

[Hahahaha, poor man in black, he's so lonely with his face covered.]

[Um, host, I suggest you don’t let others hear this~]

[Ah? What do you mean by the one in front?]

[Man in black: I didn’t intend to kill them, but now, kill them all! Kill them all! ! ]

【Hahahahaha...】

Zhao Mianmian insisted: [No, I am serious. Do you remember the Xuanlin Guard I mentioned before? ]

The barrage was silent for a while, and then replied with three words: [I don’t remember.]

Zhao Mianmian was furious and began to try to explain: [When I just upgraded, I saw that one in the front hall of the He family. I was wondering why everyone had arrow wounds on their bodies.]

The barrage recalled for a while.

Finally, someone remembered and asked her on the public screen: [Oh, is it the time when Xie Chen came to search your He family? ]

Zhao Mianmian was so moved that she wanted to cry: [Yes, yes, yes, that’s the one. ]

The comments were unclear: [What happened to that person? ]

Zhao Mianmian:

【:)】

[Now, chasing me...]

Barrage:

【…】

【Fuck! 】

The audience in the live broadcast room didn't know how to comfort Zhao Mianmian, and finally gave her one sentence:

[Anchor, you're on your own! ]

**

Zhao Mianmian suspected that the people chasing them were the Xuanlin Guards, but he didn't dare to talk about such a thing without any evidence.

She was afraid that if she didn't handle it properly, even if she didn't die at the hands of these men in black, she would be treated as an alien by Li Peiyan and others and handed over to the Xuanlin Guards.

Zhao Mianmian could only keep this secret to herself and watched Li Peiyan carrying her on his back, along with Ji Ruanping and Wu You, running for their lives through the forest.

However, everyone soon discovered that something was wrong.

These men in black shot at everyone they saw, except Liang Yuanzhao. Not only did they deliberately shoot their arrows off target, they also pushed Liang Yuanzhao out alive after he hit the muzzle of the gun.

"You are so good, Liang Yuanzhao. We treat you as a friend, but your family actually hired someone to kill us?!"

Wu You was not a fool. Seeing that the man in black was holding on to them but only let Liang Yuanzhao go, he was so angry that he wanted to pull out the arrow shot on the ground and stab it into Liang Yuanzhao.

"Bullshit!!! Wu You, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want!! Why do you...say that this assassin in black was sent by my family???"

"Anyone with eyes can see it! They kill everyone they see, why would they let you go?"

Wu You ran away following Li Peiyan while cursing at Liang Yuanzhao.

Liang Yuanzhao refused to admit that the man in black was sent by his family. In order to prove that he was right, he even turned back from the place near the exit and ran towards the depths of Jiping Mountain with Wu You and others at the risk of his life.

Li Peiyan actually didn't know the way, so he relied on his intuition to lead the few people to a safe place.

After they had gone around in circles and finally got rid of the men in black who were chasing them, they suddenly discovered that they were lost and had no idea where they were.

Liang Yuanzhao really couldn't run anymore, so he stopped and sat on the ground, his face red and breathing heavily.

Liang Yuanzhao panted while trying to explain to everyone:

"It really has nothing to do with me!!"

Wu You was also extremely tired. He touched the abrasion on his arm and gasped in pain.

"It has nothing to do with you, but that doesn't mean it has nothing to do with your Ning Wang Mansion. Who knows if your father is dissatisfied because he knows that my family took out 400,000 taels of silver to support the Xiao family's disaster relief?!"
