The War King narrowed his eyes and drew the bowstring to its full length.

There are three arrows on the string.

Without hesitation, he shot at Zongkui in the crowd.

No matter how Zong Kui changed his position, he felt like he was being stared at by the most unruly beast in the mountains, and the other party's sharp claws were locked on him.

Torrential rain.

Three arrows were fired at the same time with great force.

Seeing that Zong Kui was unable to dodge, the Nanqing warriors rushed forward to block the arrow for him.

But then, the War King fired three arrows in succession.

Su Jixue quickly changed the quiver and silently handed him the arrow in tacit understanding.

Every time, the longbow in the War King's hand was pulled like a full moon, and three arrows were fired at the same time, but no matter the strength or accuracy, it had the effect of a repeating crossbow.

People kept falling in front of Zongkui.

The War King's arrows were even more fierce than those of the soldiers surrounding Zong Kui, and he almost killed one person with one arrow.

In the end, almost all of Nanqing's soldiers were killed or wounded.

Zong Kui had no choice but to pull over a hidden stake to block the arrow, but soon the stake was shot into a hedgehog.

There were bursts of thunder and heavy rain.

The blazing fire that had just illuminated half the sky gradually died down, and for the first time, Zong Kui experienced the despair of being caught between a rock and a hard place.

It was clearly he who was going to kill the War King, but now he is caught in a trap.

It shouldn't be like this!

Zong Kui frowned as he looked at Su Jixue, who was nestling beside the War King like a kitten and silently handing him arrows. It was her!

If she hadn't recognized him, their retreat would have been silent at the first opportunity.

Instead of being entangled until now.

On a rainy night, the two people in the wheelchairs worked in perfect harmony and brought the lethality of the bows and arrows to their maximum potential.

You are innocent!

Su Jixue!

These two names were like thorns piercing Zong Kui's heart, and resentment surged in his heart. Damn it, why haven't the reinforcements arrived yet?!

If he doesn't come soon, he will really die!

At this time, the War King was extremely impatient with Zong Kui hiding like a mouse, and he whispered something to Su Jixue.

Su Jixue immediately squatted down from his arms. Her injuries were so severe that she was unable to stand up.

The heavy rain poured down on her wounds, causing her vitality to continue to drain away.

But Su Jixue didn't say a word.

Zong Kui is right in front of her, how can she retreat? She wants to see how he dies!

The War King stood up, aimed the arrow at Zong Kui, drew his bow and shot it out without even aiming.

This arrow was as powerful as breaking an army.

It pierced through the person who was blocking the arrow in Zong Kui's hand and nailed him hard.

The leader of the clan fell to the ground with a loud bang.

bingo!

Su Jixue's eyes were blazing as she watched Zong Kui falling like a kite with a broken string. Those Nanqing secret agents who were still resisting desperately rushed towards Zong Kui.

He protected Zongkui who fell to the ground.

The guards of Jingjiwei immediately surrounded them and trapped them in the center.

The lights in the Dongchu Palace and the Qianqing Palace were on all night long.

Emperor Ming, who was over thirty years old, was pacing anxiously in the hall, his face looking gloomy and ugly.

The other palace maids had already left, and Empress Dowager Xie had also returned to the Cining Palace early. Now, the only one by his side was Eunuch Feng, who had always served him closely. This was Feng Daban, who had grown up with the emperor and was one of his most trusted people.

"Your Majesty, there's no point in being anxious. It's getting late. You should go to bed first." Eunuch Feng bowed and advised. He also knew that Emperor Ming was in a bad mood at the moment.

"Why does it rain at this time?" Emperor Ming frowned and looked at the dark sky. At this time, the four streets were already pitch black, and there was no trace of fire.

"Your Majesty, actually..." Eunuch Feng considered for a moment. Normally, this was not what he should say, but having accompanied the Emperor all this time, he knew exactly what this situation meant tonight: "It may not be a bad thing."

The Nanqing family was completely eradicated by Ji Xue, and now the young emperor is assisted only by the regent, Zong Kui. Zong Kui was all-powerful in Nanqing, but now he is in Dongchu.

This is what is meant by a tiger in trouble.

Although the emperor and the regent had a private agreement, if Zongkui died, it might not be a bad thing for Dongchu.

Although Dong Chu suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Gu'an, it was the only country among the six countries that defeated Nan Qing.

If we can capture Zong Kui now, Nanqing will be in danger.

"It's a good thing if he dies. If he is captured alive..." The usually gentle Emperor Ming's eyes were terrifyingly sharp.

"I understand. Your Majesty, please take a rest first. I will go and make arrangements." Eunuch Feng bowed and walked out of the Qianqing Palace.

Eunuch Feng's figure quickly disappeared in the rain.

End of West Chang Street.

Zong Kui and others have been trapped in the encirclement.

The shouts and cries of killing had become one-sided at this moment.

The War King picked up Su Jixue and asked, "Do you want to see it?"

Su Jixue nodded.

The autumn rain was cold and it was the middle of the night. Although she was seriously injured, she did not want to miss this wonderful moment.

The War King held Su Jixue in his arms and flew into the air, sitting on the high eaves, where he could have a clear view of the scene where Zong Kui and others were trapped below.

The rainstorm had subsided at this time, and Su Jixue's eyes, which were originally difficult to open, were fixed on the ground below.

Nanqing's secret agents kept falling.

The encirclement is shrinking.

Zong Kui was stabbed in the abdomen and shot in the chest. It was difficult for him to stand up at this time. He held a long knife to support his body and half-knelt and half-squatted on the ground.

On a rainy night, he saw two people on the high eaves.

This scene deeply stimulated Zong Kui, as if several years ago, he had also looked at the two little men standing side by side on the high platform, looking down at him and making him look like an ant.

The blood in his body kept draining away.

Zong Kui was a little dazed.

More than a decade ago, fate had played a trick on him. On that day, the cold was biting, just like today, and the mountains were covered with snow.

Zong Kui followed the bloody search, but found that there was no one alive on the Great Wilderness Mountain.

The young girl who had just reached marriage age sat on the pile of corpses. Her delicate face, as beautiful as the red spider lily, was dotted with blood. She looked both charming and beautiful.

See Zongkui coming.

The girl jumped down from the pile of corpses, her black hair fluttering, her blood-red skirt dancing like fire, and her smile as beautiful as a flower.

"You came."

This was the first thing she said to him.

Then, that charming and charming little face raised proudly, and she tilted her head to show Zong Kui the hairpin on her head: "See, I didn't break my promise!"

The dress she was wearing was made of the most precious Tianluo brocade. Although it was dyed blood-red, the pearls and diamonds embroidered on it seemed to glow even in broad daylight.

This day is extremely important to her.

So I wore my most beautiful dress.

But she got a silver hairpin that didn't match well. The pattern on the hairpin didn't even look right, and it looked a bit weird.

Although it doesn't match well, she seems to think it is the most worthwhile item to display.

Snow covered the desolate mountains and corpses were everywhere.

She looked like a monster from the deep mountains that had committed countless murders the moment it emerged from the mountains, yet her smile was as innocent as that of a naive child.

The fox eyes with upturned corners only gave a slight glance with a smile, which seemed to have seduced Zong Kui's soul.

As if possessed by a ghost, Zong Kui nodded, loosened the sharp blade with the hand behind his back, tore off a piece of his sleeve, and helped the girl wipe the sticky blood off her fingers.

The voice is a little hoarse.

"I'll take you away."
