Best friends travel through time together! Marry the paranoid! Divorce together

He Chaoye's eyes reflected her bewildered expression, and he calmly looked away, "There's dirt on your face."

Xiang Huaiyue rubbed her cheek with the back of her hand and looked at him tenderly, "What about now?"

"Nothing."

"You haven't even looked, how do you know there's nothing?" Xiang Huaiyue pulled her lip, her tone slightly dissatisfied, "I think you're teasing me on purpose."

He Chaoye's expression suddenly turned serious and cold. He reached out and covered her lips with his hands, whispering, "Shh, don't talk."

After he finished speaking, he reined in his horse and his face was full of vigilance.

Xiang Huaiyue's body tensed up instantly, not daring to breathe.

They were in the territory of the Nether Valley, which was the only way to the Valley of Life and Death.

At this time, they entered a forest. The surrounding area was shrouded in mist, and the branches were looming, making it difficult to see clearly, as if they were in a fairyland.

Now the surroundings are extremely quiet, as if taking one more step will lead to eternal damnation.

Xiang Huaiyue's knuckles were slightly bent, and his shoulders were noticeably straighter.

He Chaoye placed his palm on the back of her hand. He said nothing, yet it seemed as if he had said something.

Xiang Huaiyue's fear faded a lot, and his expression gradually relaxed.

He Chaoye threw out a dagger from his sleeve.

The dagger was swung straight forward.

Suddenly, a large group of masked warriors jumped out of the bushes, long swords pointed directly at He Chaoye, and their voices were fierce and cold, "We only want women, you abandon your horse and get out."

Xiang Huaiyue clenched her palms. He said he wanted her right away, so he was probably targeting her.

As for who sent them, she would wait until she got the deer grass and then settle the score.

I just don’t know if He Chaoye will abandon her?

He Chaoye silently raised a mocking arc, narrowed his sharp and cold eyes, and smiled softly.

"If you want to take this person away from me, then I'll see if you have the ability to do so."

More than ten assassins glared at each other, "You are simply courting death!"

Before they finished speaking, they leaped up and attacked He Chaoye.

A gust of wind blew towards her, and Xiang Huaiyue shrank into He Chaoye's arms in fear. Her eyelashes trembled and her scalp suddenly became numb.

Why doesn’t she have a powerful golden finger?

Can’t the system reward her with superb martial arts?

He Chaoye was alone and had to take care of her as a burden, so he was obviously inferior.

Suddenly, He Chaoye carried her off the horse with one hand, and his voice rang softly in her ears, "Hold me, don't let go."

Xiang Huaiyue nodded, "Okay."

She held his left arm tightly and stared vigilantly at the assassin who was flashing towards her.

He Chaoye held a long spear in his right hand, with the red tassel fluttering in the wind, giving off a strong sense of oppression.

A dozen figures rushed towards He Chaoye.

He Chaoye swung his spear and rushed forward. His spear was as flexible as a snake, accurately piercing the assassins, and every move was fatal.

Xiang Huaiyue turned with He Chaoye, the two of them moved in sync and had a perfect understanding.

Seeing that He Chaoye was unstoppable and invincible, the assassins set their sights on Xiang Huaiyue.

Their eyes darkened and they chopped towards Huaiyue fiercely.

He Chaoye held her head and squatted slightly to avoid the attacks.

He turned and soared into the air, thrusting his spear forward with unstoppable force like a thunderstorm.

He Chaoye attacked quickly and fiercely. When he landed on the ground, he saw that they had all fallen to the ground, covering their wounds and screaming in pain.

Xiang Huaiyue's eyes flashed, and disbelief filled her heart.

He knocked them down in one go?

He is indeed a young general who has experienced many battles!

He Chaoye had left a few people alive. He pulled her forward, put his spear to one of them's neck, and shouted, "Who sent you here?"

The assassin trembled uncontrollably and stammered, "It was...it was the Seventh Prince who sent us to assassinate Princess Yongle..."

Xiang Huaiyue's entire body trembled, a surge of resentment rising in her heart. She shouted angrily, "That's nonsense! We are siblings and share the same blood. We would never do anything to harm our loved ones!"

A Yu would never stab her in the back!

These people are clearly trying to frame him!

The assassin laughed cruelly and said, "If Princess Yongle doesn't believe me, you can go and confront the Seventh Prince! I never tell lies, otherwise I will die without a burial place!"

"As you wish." He Chaoye's eyes were cold, and he raised his spear slightly, slashing it across the other's throat.

The assassin's eyes widened, he covered his throat and fell down.

He Chaoye's cold eyes swept across the two remaining assassins, and his voice was stern, "If you tell the truth, I can let you go."

The two assassins looked at each other and said, "Let's say..."

They were arguing over who would speak first. He Chaoye's patience was exhausted and he pointed at one of them, "You go."

"Actually, the emperor sent us here..." A trace of hatred flashed across the assassin's eyes. He took out the sword from the ground and stabbed towards Huaiyue.

He Chaoye glanced at him coldly and swung his knife.

The assassin was not as fast as him and fell down first.

Xiang Huaiyue's face wasn't filled with a trace of fear, but instead was filled with overwhelming anger. "Not only did they frame my seventh brother, they also framed my father. How audacious!"

He Chaoye moved his spear towards the last person and said, "Tell me, how do you want to die?"

There was a bloodthirsty smile on the corner of his lips, and there was a hint of danger around him.

The last assassin screamed and fell to the ground.

Xiang Huaiyue frowned and kicked him a few times, "Did you scare him to death?"

He Chaoye thrust his spear towards their vital points at high speed, without blinking, and said calmly, "This is death."

And he was completely dead.

Through his actions just now, Xiang Huaiyue seemed to see what he looked like on the battlefield.

He Chaoye glanced at her sideways, a trace of inquiry hidden in his deep eyes, "Why? Your Highness, do you think I'm cruel?"

Xiang Huaiyue raised her cherry lips slightly, "If I say no, will the general believe me?"

Swords and knives are merciless on the battlefield. If he had been merciful, he would have died thousands of times.

Besides, he just didn't leave any trouble behind, so how could he be called cruel?

He Chaoye's dark eyes locked onto her for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject, "How does Your Highness intend to handle this matter?"

"Once I get the deer grass, I will definitely get to the bottom of this." Xiang Huaiyue tightened her fingertips slightly and said in a deep voice, "Since they framed my father and my seventh brother, they must be trying to alienate us. They are most likely someone in the palace."

The original owner must have offended a lot of people in her life, so she suffered this misfortune innocently.

The only way for her to protect herself and those around her is to find out who is behind the scenes.

He Chaoye picked up the token on the ground and handed it over, "This may be the clue for you to track down the person behind this."

Xiang Huaiyue saw the totem on the token. The edges were inky black, with a fox head reflected in the middle. It looked so lifelike that a trace of fear rose in his heart.

He Chaoye saw her fear and couldn't help but say, "Can I keep it for you?"

Xiang Huaiyue nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, General."

"Your Highness, you are too kind. It's just a small favor." He Chaoye replied calmly.

Afterwards, He Chaoye brought the horse and helped her mount it.

Seeing that he was still not coming up, Xiang Huaiyue paused and asked, "Aren't you coming up?"

"The Valley of Life and Death is ahead. I'll lead you there." He Chaoye's eyes were cold and his tone was indifferent.

Xiang Huaiyue said no more and let him lead her away.

Just as they were about to enter the Valley of Life and Death, an accident happened.

Xiang Huaiyue's heart tightened, and he said in a trembling voice: "He Chaoye!"
