Don't panic, nephew. I will take this pot of evil star.

Footsteps were approaching, and at the same time, the sound of a sword being drawn was heard next door. Mu Lanxun's brows twitched, and he was about to leap past the woman towards the door.

Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a cold light at the corner of his eye. He immediately steadied his body and stopped just in front of the tip of a knife.

A breeze blew from behind him, and he quickly turned around to avoid the knife tip in front of him. What rushed towards him was a bloody... corpse.

The woman just now had a short blade stuck in her chest. She fell in front of him, covered in blood, staring at him straight in the eyes.

It's like dying with eyes open.

Before he could think, the clanging sound of weapons clashing next door became more and more intense. His face darkened, he drew his sword, and ran straight to the next room.

As expected, as soon as he stepped onto the corridor, a long arrow hit the stone slab in front of his feet, and the arrow feathers vibrated.

What a powerful skill! He could actually shoot through the stone slabs? He pursed his lips tightly and turned his head to look at the courtyard wall.

A man wearing a rabbit mask stood on the wall, carrying a bamboo basket filled with arrows on his back. His duck-green robe stood out against the snow, making him look extremely cold.

Mu Lanxun smiled contemptuously and faced the man on the wall. The moment he jumped onto the wall, two people jumped down from the roof at the same time.

One of them ran straight to Mu Fengze's room next door, and the other followed him and attacked the lower body of Rabbit Mask.

"Hehe, I was careless!" The rabbit mask chuckled, and his cheerful tone didn't sound like he was about to be besieged by two people.

Mu Lanxun's feint failed, and he turned to the vehicle equipment under the wall without any hesitation, and saw that the long sword was about to pierce the full wooden box.

With a "bang", debris flew out of the wooden box, and the man in black hiding inside instantly started fighting with him.

The two men on the wall were also releasing various hidden weapons with clang clang sounds, and little flashes of fire kept flashing in the night, making people dizzy.

The man in black feinted an attack with a long sword in his right hand, and shot out two hidden weapons from his left sleeve, heading straight for his chest and abdomen at a tricky angle.

Mu Lanxun's eyes flashed with murderous intent, as if he had foreseen it. He swung out a sword flower, just in time to block the two thin flying knives.

The man in black shuddered all over, his eyes widened, and he lowered his head to look at the handle of the dagger that had sunk into his waist and abdomen.

"you!"

Mu Lanxun released the dagger in his left hand and without giving the man in black time to be shocked, he slashed his neck with the sword.

The man in black fell to the ground with a thud. His sneak attack failed and he was killed instead. He never dreamed that with his skills, he could not even last ten moves at the hands of this man?

The rabbit mask turned his head, and when he saw the man in black lying on the ground, he seemed to be shocked, and his whole body was so cold that he felt like it was frozen three feet.

He threw a hidden weapon to force the two men back, and as he jumped onto the wall, he fired five arrows at once. The crackling sound of the taut bowstring made people's scalps tingle.

Mu Lanxun's face changed drastically. In an instant, an arrow tip appeared in his sight. He subconsciously raised his sword to block it, but the powerful force made his arm numb.

Fortunately, the arrow changed its direction, and it brushed past his cheek and shot out from under his earlobe, leaving a trail of blood.

The man who had just fought with the rabbit mask was not so lucky. He was shot in the shoulder, and the entire arrow penetrated more than half of the shoulder blade, leaving only a few arrow feathers, which were gradually stained with blood.

"Come, let me see what decision a small guard like you will make?" The rabbit mask said coldly.

Although Mu Lanxun was standing at the foot of the wall, the look she gave him was calm and composed.

The five arrows fired at once were earth-shattering, and the remaining three arrows shot towards Mu Fengze's room. At this time, the door of his room had been shattered at some point, and a piece of broken wood was hanging precariously on the door frame, looking so pitiful.

There were three or four people lying in the room. Although Mu Fengze looked a little disheveled, fortunately he was not seriously injured.

But it was hard to say about Mu Mingyan. The arrow hit his thigh. He sat on the ground with a pale face and blood gushing all over the floor.

Mu Lanxun frowned slightly. If the prince of Chu State was killed in Shangli State, it would very likely provoke discord between the two countries. Although Chu State did not dare to resist openly now, there was no guarantee that it would not harbor grudges.

It is hard to say whether Emperor Qi Zhao will take precautionary measures to eliminate the problem completely, so these two people must not die in the territory of Shangli.

He narrowed his black eyes, glanced at the window behind Mu Fengze, and gave him another look, hoping that this guy could understand.

"Choose! You can only save one of these two people!" The rabbit mask shouted loudly, his voice high and excited.

As soon as he finished speaking, he filled his bow again and fired three arrows at once!

Everyone present couldn't help but gasp, as the arrow was coming towards them with such powerful force that it felt like they would be covered in blood in the next moment!

After receiving Mu Lanxun's eye signal, Mu Fengze moved towards the window without leaving a trace.

Before the man could finish his harsh words, he lunged out of the window. The arrow grazed his back and disappeared into the dark night.

The lake below the window was as calm as a big black pot. The moment he fell, he suddenly remembered that Feng Xili had told him mysteriously before he left: If you stay in a hotel, try to stay in a room with a lake below the window.

It’s true, in this small inn, only his room has a lake under the window, and you can see the deep part of the lake at a glance.

When the freezing cold lake water surrounded him, it caused his brain to be deprived of oxygen and he almost passed out. He stuck his head out, took a deep breath, and then dived into the bottom of the lake. Ripples spread out, and soon there was no movement.

Everyone in the room was shocked. Jumping into the lake to escape in the middle of the night in the cold winter, does this mean they don't want to die too quickly?

Mu Lanxun's heart was beating wildly. Just before another arrow shot into Mu Mingyan's chest, he slashed towards the place where the strong wind came from with the power of thunder. The tip of the sword hit the floor between someone's legs hard.

……

There was a brief silence for a moment. Fortunately, the rabbit mask was aiming at these two people, and the third arrow missed and hit the wall not far from the window.

The crisis was temporarily resolved, and all these changes took only two breaths of time. Before everyone could catch their breath, more than a dozen people suddenly appeared in the yard of the small inn!

"Sir." The leader bowed and clasped his fists towards Mu Lanxun, being extremely respectful and polite.

Hearing the familiar voice, his eyelids twitched. Shangsi?

Wasn't he in Zixiang Palace? Why was he here?

Shangsi was dressed in formal attire, yet he addressed Mu Lanxun as "Sir". Could he be someone secretly sent by Emperor Qi Zhao?

"Go!" Shangsi waved his hand, and the five people behind him rushed straight to the rabbit mask. The man did not show any obvious panic. The two dark black holes on the mask turned towards Mu Lanxun, as if saying: See you later.

Five people jumped onto the wall, and the next moment, a puff of white smoke rose from the spot, and the rabbit mask performed a trick of disappearing on the spot, shocking the five people so much that their eyes widened. What kind of magic was this?

"Imperial sister!!" A shrill scream shook the eardrums.
