Who put the yellow robe on me?

Suddenly, Zhi Ruolan, who had been silent all this time, looked up and screamed, "Go away! Don't come over here!"

The third gangster hit Zhi Ruolan hard on the head with the handle of his knife and said viciously, "You bitch! I'll teach you a lesson!"

Zhi Ruolan had fair skin, and when she was hit by the handle of the knife, her head was broken and bleeding.

Luo Shihua gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "I'll go over, don't hurt her again!"

The fourth bandit felt somewhat upset when he saw Zhi Ruolan being beaten, but he couldn't confront his third brother, so he immediately wanted to vent his anger on Luo Shihua.

The fourth brother picked up the dagger and walked towards Luo Shihua, cursing. Just when the fourth brother was about to reach Luo Shihua...

In an instant, a sharp whistle pierced the night sky!

Immediately afterwards, a sharp shadow arrow shot out from the jungle.

The arrow came with a whistling sound and as fast as lightning, heading straight for the fourth brother.

The arrow flashed with a cold light, and its force was so great that it penetrated the fourth brother's body almost instantly.

The fourth brother widened his eyes, looking at the Shadow Roaring Arrow in disbelief, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. His body shook a few times, and then he fell to the ground with a bang!

The dagger in his hand fell with a crisp sound!

The second brother's face changed drastically when he saw this. Before he could react, another shadow arrow streaked across the sky.

This arrow was also extremely accurate. The tip of the arrow pierced the second brother's chest with such great force that it nailed him to the wooden pillar of the ruined temple.

Seeing that something was wrong, the third brother at the gate of the dilapidated temple immediately put his dagger to Zhi Ruolan's neck and shouted in a trembling voice: "If you shoot me again, I will die with her!"

The jungle suddenly became quiet and there was no sound.

Zhi Ruolan was pressed by the dagger, her face turned pale and cold sweat streamed down her forehead.

Although she felt the threat of death every moment after being knocked unconscious and captured from Tianxiang Pavilion today, the desperate behavior of the third bandit still made her feel frightened.

Luo Shihua was heartbroken when he saw this scene, and he hurriedly shouted: "Don't hurt her, I agree to your conditions!"

The third brother stared nervously at the direction of the jungle, the dagger still pressed against Zhi Ruolan's neck, and said coldly: "You come out obediently and don't play tricks, otherwise I will kill her directly."

The jungle suddenly became quiet, even the chirping of insects and birds disappeared.

The air seemed to be frozen, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind.

Suddenly, a low shout came from the jungle: "Stop!"

A figure slowly walked out of the jungle. It was none other than the sixteenth prince Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen's figure appeared particularly tall in the moonlight, and his appearance at this moment was like the arrival of a savior.

"Put down your weapons and talk slowly." Jiang Chen said calmly.

The third robber sneered, "Sixteenth Prince, there is no hatred between you and me. I am just a bounty hunter to make a living. Why do you want to get involved in this mess?"

"Oh? Bounty hunters?" Jiang Chen said with a stern look, not afraid at all. "Then how about we make a deal? I'll give you double the price, and you release them all. How about that?"

After hearing this, the third robber showed a hint of hesitation on his face, but he quickly regained his composure: "In our line of work, trust is everything. If we go back on our word like this, who would want to do business with me, Third Brother Huo, in the future?"

Jiang Chen noticed his hesitation and said, "How about we make another deal? I'll give you ten times the price, and you tell me who's behind this, and follow me to the Jingzhao prefect to testify. How about that?"

The third robber was stunned when he heard this, and was obviously moved by this proposal.

After hesitating for a long time, he slowly said, "That's not good, right? If I reveal the mastermind behind this, I'm afraid I'll have a life to earn money but no life to spend it."

Jiang Chen said firmly, "Then I'll make you a third deal? If you release them all, I'll not only give you money, but also send people to protect you and your family. I won't pursue your previous actions in the future. How about that?"

The third robber sneered, "I'm sorry, Your Highness the Sixteenth, but I only came here to take the scholar's head in exchange for a ransom. As for your royal feud, I don't want to get involved."

After saying that, he took out a dagger and threw it hard. The dagger drew a cold light in the air and stabbed straight into the mud under Luo Shihua's feet.

"You, pick up the dagger and commit suicide." The third robber said in a cold tone, with a hint of madness in his eyes.

Luo Shihua glanced at the dagger at his feet, and a trace of pain and helplessness flashed in his eyes.

His hands trembled slightly, but he still bent down and slowly picked up the dagger.

"Brother Luo, don't listen to him!" Jiang Chen shouted hurriedly, his eyes full of anxiety.

Jiang Chen knew that the secret of Luo Shihua's father was very important, otherwise there wouldn't be so many killers trying to take his life again and again.

The Autumn Examination incident was just a cover. If Luo Shihua failed in the Autumn Examination and returned to Fengcheng, he would definitely be killed in order to keep the secret.

But now Luo Shihua is under the protection of Jiang Chen, and has escaped danger many times by luck, which is why he attracted a large number of killers in order to prevent the secret from ten years ago from being leaked.

After all, no one dared to guarantee whether Luo Shihua's father told him this secret.

"No!" Zhi Ruolan screamed in the arms of the third robber, her voice full of despair and fear.

"Robber, you let her go and held me hostage!" Jiang Chen shouted loudly, staring at the third brother, trying to exchange his own life for Zhi Ruolan's safety, "Your mastermind must want my life."

The third robber sneered, his eyes icy: "I'm sorry, Sixteenth Prince, the reward is for him this time!"

After saying that, he pointed at Luo Shihua.

Luo Shihua held the dagger in his hand, as if he had made up his mind, his brows furrowed, his eyes empty...

"No!" Zhi Ruolan screamed again, her voice full of pain and helplessness.

The third robber said in a bewitching tone, "That's right, stab her and I'll let her go."

Luo Shihua held the dagger, looked at Zhi Ruolan with complicated eyes, and said in a hoarse voice: "Let her go, I will commit suicide!"

As he said this, he picked up the dagger and stabbed himself in the stomach with determination.

At this moment, Zhi Ruolan's eyes were determined, and suddenly she slashed with the robber's dagger, cutting across Zhi Ruolan's neck.

Blood flowed out instantly, and Zhi Ruolan fell powerlessly from the arms of the third bandit, her eyes filled with unwillingness and despair.

“Shoot!!!” Suddenly, the sixteenth prince shouted angrily, his voice was like thunder, shaking people’s hearts.

The Shadow Howling Arrow cut through the night sky like lightning, heading straight for the third robber.

The arrow pierced through the air, making a sharp whistling sound, and instantly hit the third brother's chest. The force was so great that it nailed him to the ground.

The third brother's eyes were wide open, and he died with his eyes wide open, thinking that he had almost succeeded...

Luo Shihua knelt on the ground, hugged Zhi Ruolan's body, and burst into tears: "How can you be so stupid! I am wearing the gold silk soft armor given by the Thirteenth Princess!"

Zhi Ruolan's eyes gradually dimmed, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, as if she wanted to say something.

Luo Shihua put his ear to Zhi Ruolan's mouth and heard her weak voice: "You are the hope of our Luo family... I hope you can redress my father's innocence..."

"You'll be fine, I will definitely save you." Luo Shihua held her hand tightly, his voice choked with sobs.

Jiang Chen quickly stepped forward to check Zhi Ruolan's injuries and found that her wounds were so deep that the bones were visible and blood was constantly gushing out.

Xu Ningce, Deng Yunde and others quickly gathered around, all with serious expressions.

In the jungle, Zhong Xiaodan and Princess Thirteen also came out, with lingering tension and worry on their faces.

"Can you call me sister again?"

Zhi Ruolan finished speaking with her last bit of strength, slowly closed her eyes, and her hands fell limply.

"Sister!!!"
