Song Zhi wanted to laugh when he heard this. It seemed that these people were not completely heartless.

She looked up at the more than one hundred people and asked, "So, you want to kill me to vent your anger?"

"Of course it is."

The leader smiled sinisterly, "You only have these few guards with you, so don't even think about leaving here alive!"

A Luan, who was standing by, was about to step forward to deal with these people, but was stopped by Song Zhi, "Who said there were only these few guards?"

She waved her hand lightly, and dozens of secret guards immediately descended from her surroundings like ghosts.

Even when they saw these secret guards, they still didn't take them seriously. "Even if you have dozens of people, it doesn't matter. We still have a lot more people. We can wear you down."

"is it?"

"Then why not give it a try?"

Song Zhi said no more to them. Some people are born with vicious hearts and are ungrateful. They will not look for problems in themselves, but will just blame all the mistakes on others.

There is no need for such people to live.

At Song Zhi's command, the secret guards rushed directly towards the group of people blocking the road.

They moved as swiftly as a whirlwind, taking the lives of their opponents as easily as harvesting grass. Before the group of people could react, they fell to the ground covered in blood.

The man in the lead might have some martial arts skills. Just when the secret guard was about to cut his throat with a knife, he quickly pulled a civilian next to him in front of him to block the attack.

The people next to him widened their eyes in disbelief, as if they had never expected to be stabbed in the back.

The leader ignored his gaze and threw him away. Then he cut the rope and let Song Chenfeng and Cuihua fall in front of him. He put the axe in his hand against the necks of Song Chenfeng and Cuihua.

After seeing the scene clearly, a look of horror appeared on his face. "How...how could this happen? Don't come over here! If you come over again, I will kill them!"

Song Zhi scoffed, "If you want to blame someone, blame yourselves for being stupid. How could I, the great empress, be without protection? How could the people protecting me be so incompetent?"

They actually wanted to fight her with just a few axes. I don't know why these people are so naive. No wonder they can be easily instigated and used as pawns.

Maybe they always think of themselves as men deep down, so it would be easy for them to deal with a woman like Song Zhi.

Song Chenfeng and Cuihua were originally in a coma, but after this ordeal, they both woke up.

Seeing the sharp blade in front of them, Song Chenfeng and Cuihua's faces suddenly turned as pale as paper.

The leader pulled them back and said, "Don't come over here. If you come over again, I'll kill them. I've done some research and I know this man is also a member of the Song family."

In the blink of an eye, he was the only one left among the more than a hundred people. Only then did he realize how much their shouting sounded like that of ants, and his hands holding the hatchet began to tremble.

"No, don't hurt him! If you want to kill someone, just kill me."

Cuihua was very frightened and looked at Song Chenfeng in horror.

Song Chenfeng shook his head, "No, it's my fault that I failed to protect you. If anyone has to die, it should be me. Let her go!"

"What are we discussing? Did I say I would let one of you go? You will all be buried with me!" The man in the lead tried to hold on and speak harshly, but his flickering eyes still revealed his desire to survive.

Everyone looked at Song Zhi, waiting for her decision.

Song Zhi didn't say anything. He had already signaled with his eyes that a secret guard was going around behind them. Now he just needed to delay for a while. With the secret guard's skills, he could rescue the two people without any harm.

Song Zhi was about to speak when the man suddenly collapsed among the corpses on the ground. He shouted excitedly, "Yes, I want them to be buried with me. I won't lose anything if the Song family takes my place!"

As he said this, he was about to cut Song Chenfeng's neck with the hatchet.

The secret guards behind him were already in place. Seeing this, they immediately took action. They were about to succeed, but at the critical moment, Cuihua, who was closest, rushed forward faster than anyone else and hugged the hand of the leader holding the hatchet.

"You are not allowed to hurt Song Lang!"

She tried hard to grab the hatchet, and managed to knock the two men out of the range of the secret guards' attack.

The hatchet almost fell out of the man's hand, and Song Chenfeng took the opportunity to avoid the man's shackles.

Seeing that his plan was ruined, the man looked fiercely at Cuihua who fell to the side due to inertia, and slashed at her without thinking.

The knife hit Cuihua's abdomen.

"Cuihua!"

Song Chenfeng screamed in horror.

"what!"

At the same time, a scream was heard, and the man was instantly killed by the secret guards!

He looked at Song Chenfeng who was running towards Cuihua in panic, with blood gushing from the corner of his mouth. "It seems that this woman is very important to you. One life for another, it's worth it!"

The next second, he was crushed by the secret guards.

Cuihua was covered in blood, but her face showed a relieved expression. She slowly stretched out a hand and stroked Song Chenfeng's face, "I'm glad you're okay."

Song Chenfeng's eyes were horribly red. "Don't worry, you'll be fine. You'll definitely be fine."

He stretched out his hand to help her press the bleeding wound, but blood kept flowing out from between his fingers.

Song Zhi also rushed over. Seeing that Cuihua was getting weaker and weaker, he immediately fed her a life-extending pill and then sealed her meridians to prevent further bleeding.

"Put her on the carriage. The next city is not far from here. We still have time if we hurry over."

Song Chenfeng had lost the ability to think at this time and could only act rigidly according to Song Zhi's instructions based on instinct.

The group quickly got on the carriage and set off, the wheels rolling and speeding along the road.

Soon, they entered the city and found a clinic.

Song Chenfeng paced anxiously outside, paying close attention to the movements inside. Any movement would cause him to react violently.

Song Zhi followed in with a packet of life-saving medicine given to her by Doctor Jiang. The smell of blood inside could even drift outside the door.

Song Chenfeng squatted on the ground, holding his head in pain. "I shouldn't have taken her away first. I'm a loser. How could I think I was capable of protecting her?"

Ah Luan handed over a handkerchief and said, "Don't cry. With Dr. Jiang's medicine, she will be fine."

Song Chenfeng stared at A Luan blankly, his eyes filled with sorrow. "If I had known she would sacrifice herself to save me, I would have been the first to drag that person down with me."

He never thought Cuihua could do this to him.

He knew his sister well. If she was not completely sure, she would definitely not do nothing, so he just waited quietly to be rescued.

But he forgot that Cuihua was still beside him. Cuihua didn't know her sister that well, so she subconsciously chose to sacrifice herself to let him live.

Looking at the grieving Song Chenfeng, A Luan sighed. She was also worried about Cuihua's situation.

It was not until nightfall that the door of the clinic was finally opened.
