Chapter 199 A Head-on Confrontation
Yuan Ying fought with the assassins for a few more moves. Although he was not at a disadvantage for the time being, the other party seemed to be determined to kill him. The attack became more and more fierce, and Yuan Ying gradually became exhausted. Just when they found a flaw and were ready to attack again, Murong Xuanyi and others arrived in time.
Seeing this, Murong Xuanyi roared, "How dare you hurt my wife? You're seeking death!" After that, he drew his sword and joined the battle. Xie An, Yun Jiu, and Fang Yang also took action. The assassins saw that the situation was not good and knew that it would be difficult to succeed today, so they fought and retreated. They found an opportunity, flashed, and disappeared into the alley on the side of the street. They disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Murong Xuanyi hurried to Yuan Ying's side, looked her up and down with concern, and asked anxiously: "Yan'er, are you injured?"
Yuan Ying panted slightly, shook his head, and said, "I'm fine. Fortunately, you came in time, otherwise I would have been killed by these assassins today."
Murong Xuanyi frowned, his face terribly gloomy, and said unhappily: "Next time, no matter where you go, take Yun Jiu and the others with you. Do you hear me?"
Seeing Murong Xuanyi's bad face, Yuan Ying quickly smiled and said, "Okay, I got it. This won't happen again."
Then he changed the subject and said, "I don't know who sent these assassins. I don't think I have offended anyone recently, right?"
Murong Xuanyi had already vaguely guessed who sent this assassin. His eyes were full of murderous intent, and he gritted his teeth and said, "No matter who sent this assassin, if he dares to touch you, he must die!"
Yuan Ying stepped forward and gently took Murong Xuanyi's hand, comforting him: "Okay, don't be angry yet, we have to find out the origins of this assassin first. The person behind this must have some plan, we can't be so angry that we lose our composure."
Murong Xuanyi took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, nodded, and without saying a word, pulled Yuan Ying towards Prince Jing's Mansion. Along the way, his mind had drifted far away. If he didn't touch his Yan'er, he could let go of everything in the past, but he hurt the people he cared about most again and again.
After returning to Prince Jing's Mansion, Murong Xuanyi whispered to Yuan Ying, "Be good, Yan'er, wash up and go to bed first. I still have to go to the study to deal with some important matters."
Yuan Ying didn't think much about it and nodded, saying, "Well, go ahead and get busy." After that, he turned and walked towards the bathroom.
Murong Xuanyi looked at Yuan Ying's back until she disappeared from his sight, then he turned and walked towards the study. As soon as he entered the study, he changed into a black nightgown, and a moment later, he called Xie An, Yun Jiu and Fang Yang to the study.
After seeing Murong Xuanyi's outfit, the three asked, "Master, where are you going?"
Murong Xuanyi glanced at the three of them and said, "Stop talking nonsense, put on your night clothes and come with me."
Seeing this, the three of them didn't dare to ask any more questions. They hurried back to their respective residences and quickly changed into night clothes. Soon they returned to the study and gathered again.
Murong Xuanyi looked at them who were ready to go, with a stern look in his eyes. He was the first to climb out of the back window of the study, followed closely by Xie An, Yun Jiu and Fang Yang. Taking advantage of the cover of night, they rushed towards Lu Ming's mansion like ghosts.
As soon as they reached the roof of Lu's mansion, they heard a fighting sound. Murong Xuanyi frowned and immediately made a gesture to keep quiet, indicating Xie An and others not to act rashly. Then, several of them crouched down and crawled silently towards the direction where the sound came from.
When he reached the eaves, he looked down in the moonlight and saw a group of men in black fighting with the guards of the Lu Mansion and Lu Ming in the courtyard. The men in black were all agile and fierce. Although the guards of the Lu Mansion fought desperately, they were gradually losing the upper hand, and people kept falling to the ground.
Murong Xuanyi thought to himself, is it Lu Ming who assassinated Yan'er? Are these men in black related to the group that assassinated his wife? His eyes turned cold, and he whispered to the people around him, "Let's see the situation first. If there is a chance, capture him alive."
As he was talking, the battle situation below changed again. The leader of the black-clothed men had extremely sharp swordsmanship. In just a few moves, he broke through the heavy encirclement of the Lu Mansion guards and pressed straight towards Lu Ming.
Seeing this, Murong Xuanyi knew he couldn't wait any longer, so he shouted, "Do it!"
After saying that, he moved like lightning, flew down from the roof first, and landed steadily in the courtyard. He swung the long sword in his hand and made a few sword flowers, bringing up a burst of cold light, and attacked directly towards the leader in black, instantly resolving Lu Ming's crisis.
Xie An, Yun Jiu and Fang Yang also jumped down, each looking for their opponents and joining the melee. The guards of the Lu Mansion, who had been gradually declining, saw someone coming to help, and their morale was greatly boosted. They cheered up again and fought with the men in black again.
The black-clothed leader had not expected that these people would show up halfway, and each of them was highly skilled in martial arts. His face changed, but he was unwilling to retreat easily. While resisting Murong Xuanyi's attack, he shouted loudly: "Who are you? Don't meddle in other people's business!"
Murong Xuanyi snorted coldly and replied: "I am concerned about the affairs of scoundrels like you. If you dare to go wild in this capital, I will make sure you never return!" After saying that, the sword moves in his hand became more and more fierce, and each move went straight to the black-clothed leader's vital points.
The black-clad leader was stunned when he heard Murong Xuanyi's voice and was about to notify the retreat.
Yun Jiu seized the opportunity and subdued a man in black with a grabbing hand. The man in black was still struggling, but Yun Jiu increased his strength and shouted in a low voice: "If you don't want to die, be quiet!"
When the other men in black saw their companions being captured, the leader in black saw that the situation was not good. He knew that today's mission would be difficult to complete, and if they continued to fight, no one would be able to escape. He shouted, "Retreat!"
The rest of the men in black heard the order and fought and retreated, running towards the outside of the Lu Mansion. How could Murong Xuanyi let them go so easily? He chased after them with his sword in hand, shouting, "Chase them, we can't let them get away!"
Fang Yang and the others hurried to catch up, and the man in black saw this and quickly shot several hidden weapons. Murong Xuanyi and the others quickly blocked with their swords, and although they blocked the hidden weapons, they also slowed down the speed. The man in black took the opportunity to distance himself and ran wildly into the darkness under the cover of night.
After seeing this, Murong Xuanyi stopped chasing and turned to walk in the direction of Lu Ming. Lu Ming hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his hands together, and said sincerely: "Thank you all for your help. Lu Ming is grateful."
Murong Xuanyi stretched out his hand and slowly pulled off the black veil on his face. Lu Ming looked up and saw that it was Murong Xuanyi. His expression immediately became more respectful. He quickly bowed again and said respectfully, "It turned out to be His Royal Highness Prince Jing. Today, thanks to His Royal Highness for saving my life, Lu Ming will definitely remember it in his heart and repay you one day."
Murong Xuanyi's face was stern. He waved his hand slightly, his eyes shot straight at Lu Ming like lightning, and his tone was grim. Without beating around the bush, he asked directly, "Lu Ming, my princess was assassinated today. Was it you who instigated the people behind the scenes to do it?"
If he wanted to kill Yan'er, he would definitely arrange for the Jinyiwei to do it, so Murong Xuanyi went to find Lu Ming first, but he didn't expect that Lu Ming was also assassinated.
Lu Ming looked calm, staring firmly into Murong Xuanyi's eyes, and said sincerely and solemnly, "Your Highness, it's not me."
Murong Xuanyi narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at Lu Ming's face, carefully studying his expression. From his frank eyes and sincere words, he could tell that he was not lying.
Murong Xuanyi thought to himself, since it was not Lu Ming who did it, then these assassins were most likely secretly trained by him.
Thinking of this, Murong Xuanyi quickly walked towards the captured man in black, and suddenly stretched out his hand to tear off the scarf on his face. The man in black had blood at the corner of his mouth, and his face had turned pale. Murong Xuanyi reacted instantly, secretly saying in his heart that something was wrong, and hurriedly shouted: "Stop him, don't let him commit suicide!"
After all, it was still a step too late. A trace of determination flashed in the eyes of the man in black. His body trembled slightly, and in the blink of an eye, he was dead and collapsed limply to the ground.
Murong Xuanyi frowned, his eyes full of anger. Very good. Then let them have a head-on confrontation!
