The besties traveled through the book together, and the prince and general became abandoned husbands
Chapter 422: Injured, Double Death
Blood flowed down the gullies and washed over the ground. Soon, everyone present was soaked through by the dense raindrops.
The clothes soaked by the rain clung to their skin, and when the strong wind blew, Jiang Wumei and Li Yunyang shivered slightly.
The unhealed wounds on Jiang Wumei's body began to ache under the icy rain.
Xiao Yun held the weapon in his hand, tightening and loosening it, and his eyes were blurred by the rain.
After a long while, he looked at Xiao Tong unwillingly, breathing heavily:
"Xiao Tong, you win again this time.
We released them at the same time.
But I have one request: from today on, no matter how you punish me, you cannot involve Yangyang, and you must spare my life."
Xiao Tong's dark eyebrows were stained with water, and his face looked even more stern. As soon as Xiao Yun spoke, he nodded heavily:
"I promise you."
As long as Jiang Wumei can be kept safe at this moment, Xiao Tong will agree to any conditions Xiao Yun proposes without hesitation.
Xiao Yun closed his eyes dejectedly, then let go after a moment. He used a sword to untie the ropes on Jiang Wumei's body, then held her shoulders and looked at Xiao Tong.
Xiao Tong understood and gestured to Zhao Qi, who immediately stepped forward to withdraw the sword and set Li Yunyang free.
Rain and tears mixed together and washed over Li Yunyang's face. She excitedly took the first step forward, and Xiao Yun also released his hand on Jiang Wumei's shoulder.
Jiang Wumei breathed slowly and immediately ran towards Xiao Tong.
Seeing her anxious face, Li Yunyang also ran towards Xiao Yun.
Just as Jiang Wumei and Li Yunyang were about to pass each other, Xiao Yun suddenly put away the pained look on his face, quickly raised his hand and gestured behind him.
Dozens of his subordinates behind him suddenly rolled up their sleeves, revealing the crossbows tied to their arms.
The arrow tips shone with cold light under the rain. With a few sharp sounds, six crossbow arrows broke through the rain curtain and shot straight at Jiang Wumei's back with the force of thunder.
"wave!"
Xiao Tong immediately flew over, but another dozen crossbow arrows were fired at him at the same time, blocking all his movements.
"emperor!"
"Be careful, Your Majesty!"
Zhao Qi, Chen Yu and their subordinates immediately flew forward, drew their weapons and raised their arms to intercept the crossbow arrows, but after one wave of attacks, another wave of attacks came immediately, and they did not dare to be careless at all.
Jiang Wumei heard the sound of breaking air behind her, and reacted extremely quickly by diving to the side, avoiding the first round of shooting in a desperate manner.
But before she could catch her breath, another round of arrows rained down on her head.
Looking at the arrow tip that was right between her eyebrows, Jiang Wumei had no time to get up and run, so she could only turn around and roll with all her might.
At such a speed, it was impossible to dodge all the crossbow arrows. Jiang Wumei gritted her teeth and prepared to face the coming severe pain, but she felt warm all over and was hugged tightly in someone's arms.
"emperor!"
"emperor!"
Chen Yu and Zhao Qi cried out in panic at the same time. Something warm mixed with raindrops dripped onto their eyelashes. Jiang Wumei opened her eyes and saw a bloody crossbow arrow piercing Xiao Tong's shoulder, only half an inch away from her eyes.
The crossbow arrow had a purple tip, clearly poisoned. Jiang Wumei's eyes were red as she opened her mouth, staring into Xiao Tong's deep, rippling black eyes. A few dry words came out of her throat:
"Xiao, Xiao Tong, you are really a lunatic."
Xiao Tong ignored the crossbow arrows that pierced through his bones and hugged Jiang Wumei tightly in his arms, with such force that he wished he could rub her into his bones and blood.
"Niao Niao, I almost went crazy."
God knows how terrified he was when he saw her about to be shot through the chest by a crossbow arrow.
He was really afraid that he would be a step too late and could only hold her body.
Fortunately, he arrived.
Xiao Yun's men took advantage of the surprise attack and were able to control the first wave of attack, but Zhao Qi and Chen Yu were not unprepared.
The moment Xiao Yun ordered his men to take action, Zhao Qi blew a whistle to send a message, and the secret guards and Qilin guards lurking below immediately rushed up and attacked Xiao Yun's subordinates, forcing them to retract their crossbows and raise their weapons to fight back.
The two groups fought in a melee, and the bloody smell washed away by the rain became stronger.
Xiao Yun brought Li Yunyang to a safe area and nervously checked her body from head to toe. He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw no wounds.
"Yangyang, wait for me here. I'll take you home after I kill Xiao Tong."
After hugging Li Yunyang and comforting him, Xiao Yun immediately turned around and prepared to rush back to the battlefield.
But as soon as he turned around, Li Yunyang hugged his waist tightly:
"Xiao Yun, please don't go. Your men have already hurt the emperor, so you have already avenged yourself.
If you really kill him, the entire Great Sage will not be able to tolerate you.
Please don’t go, okay?
Don’t go…”
In the past few years since Xiao Tong ascended the throne, the country's fortune has been increasingly prosperous. Xiao Tong is the most popular emperor in the history of the country. If Xiao Yun really kills him, not only will he not be able to sit on the throne, he will also be treated as a traitor and be punished to death without a burial place. This is what Li Yunyang fears most.
She couldn't bear to watch Xiao Yun run towards his death.
Xiao Yun raised his palm to cover the pair of soft hands on his waist, turned around and stared at Li Yunyang seriously, the murderous intent in his eyes was deep and deep:
"Yangyang, the price he paid wasn't enough!
It was because of him and Xiao Yi that my mother died such a miserable death. She was humiliated before her death and couldn't even be buried after her death.
I will avenge my mother's murder no matter what.
Today, I must kill him!"
Neither mountains of swords nor seas of fire could stop Xiao Yun's determination for revenge. He would never forget the desperate and frightened look his mother gave him when she was dragged into the cold palace by that group of filthy people.
"Xiao Yun..."
Li Yunyang's eyes were blurred with tears. She grabbed his sleeve and shook her head in fear, but Xiao Yun pushed her away ruthlessly and turned around firmly.
Xiao Yun quickly approached Xiao Tong and Jiang Wumei. Suddenly, a cold light flashed in the rain on the opposite mountain. When Li Yunyang saw what the cold light was, his pupils widened instantly and he chased after Xiao Yun with all his strength.
"Danger, Xiao Yun, get out of the way quickly."
The sound of rain and fighting was too loud. Xiao Yun ran to the front of Xiao Tong with a sword in hand and could not hear what Li Yunyang shouted at all.
Just as he raised his sword to strike, a thick, sharp arrow pierced through the crowd and went straight into his heart.
"Xiao Yun, get out of the way!"
Li Yunyang's hoarse roar was finally heard by Xiao Yun. Xiao Yun raised the long sword in his hand and turned around. An arrow as thick as half a woman's wrist broke through the air, and the murderous aura came in the blink of an eye.
A shocking arrow, unavoidable!
At the last moment, a stumbling figure suddenly flashed before Xiao Yun's eyes.
With a dull thud, the arrow pierced through the chest fiercely, carrying the undiminished murderous intent, and stabbed straight into the heart of the other person.
Two painful groans sounded at the same time. The huge inertia carried by the arrows directly penetrated the chests of the two men and nailed them three meters away.
"Yang, Yang Yang..."
The severe pain from the arrow spread throughout his body in a few breaths. Blood kept gushing out of Xiao Yun's mouth and nose, but he stretched out his hand to hug the other person who was pierced by the arrow.
Xiao Yun was completely stunned. He didn't know how an arrow suddenly flew from the opposite mountain.
The two peaks are at least two hundred meters apart. In the entire Great Sage, no one has such excellent archery skills, not even Huo Zhengfeng and his son.
Such a strange person suddenly appeared in Xiao Tong's camp. Could it be that even God was helping Xiao Tong?
Xiao Yun was truly desperate.
Li Yunyang vomited a few mouthfuls of black blood, curled up in Xiao Yun's arms, letting the raindrops fall on his eyelids, slowly closing his eyes and sighing in relief:
"Xiao Yun, now we can finally be together."
Xiao Yun cried. Regardless of the severe pain brought by the sharp arrow, he grabbed the arrow tail on Li Yunyang's chest and forced himself to move his body forward a few inches.
His heart was pierced by an arrow again. Xiao Yun let the severe pain consume his body. He hugged Li Yunyang tightly against his back, tears streaming down his face.
"We live in the same bed and die in the same grave.
I’m sorry, Yangyang, I’ve let you down again in this life…”
