You're the one who wants to marry a mistress, and I'm marrying someone else, yet you still

"Master, you must go! Go quickly!"

The slightly shorter man in white kicked his third senior brother away.

The third senior brother is skilled in light footwork, but his combat prowess is not high.

After kicking the man away, he immediately came to rescue the slightly taller one.

The third senior brother was kicked and sent flying a long way, immediately spitting out a mouthful of blood.

Xie Wanru, however, refused to let him go easily. In the midst of the struggle, Xie Wanru actually managed to remove the white-clothed mask.

Beneath the mask was half a hideous and terrifying face, with only a small portion of the face showing normal skin.

Xie Wanru was stunned for a moment.

Because that half of his face... looked so much like Shen Yanzhi in his previous life after he grew up.

While Xie Wanru was stunned, the slightly shorter man in white seized the opportunity to thrust his sword. Before Xie Wanru could react, Dongzhu pounced on him and knocked the man aside.

The slightly taller man in white knew he couldn't win, so he tried to run away. Xie Wanru realized what was happening and tried to chase after him, but the slightly shorter man grabbed Dongzhu and took her hostage.

"Let my master go, or I'll kill her."

The longsword in the man's hand was already stained with blood. When it was placed on Dongzhu's neck, Dongzhu's neck was also covered in blood. Xie Wanru couldn't tell whether the blood was from Dongzhu's cut skin or from the original blood on the sword.

Xie Wanru had no choice but to sheathe her sword and let the slightly taller woman in white slip away.

"You can't escape unless I die."

Xie Wanru gripped her sword, looking at the person who had taken Dongzhu hostage.

"I don't care! I'm not afraid of dying."

The man was panting heavily, his mind filled with only one thought: that his master could escape.

After about half a cup of tea's time, the city guards arrived. The man in white knew there was no turning back, and his master must have already escaped, so he reluctantly released Dongzhu.

"It doesn't matter if you're not afraid of death, I'll make you wish you were dead."

Xie Wanru helped Dongzhu up.

"Heh, don't even think about me revealing anything. I won't say anything."

The man was captured, but he remained arrogant.

"Bei Shisan, this man is in your hands now. Don't let me down."

Xie Wanru helped Dongzhu leave.

North Thirteen? Thirteen?

The white-clad man's previously calm demeanor instantly crumbled.

"Thirteen? Is it really you? Weren't you supposed to have failed your mission and died? How could the Xie family possibly let you live?"

Xie Wanru had someone help her third senior brother up, and they had already left.

Bei Shisan walked up to the man in white and personally removed his mask.

“Ninth Brother, not everyone is as cold-blooded as him. Only he would kill someone for something so trivial. He is not the master, he is the devil, and we are not dogs.”

Bei Shisan recognized the man's face; he knew him.

They all wore masks and used code names, so they shouldn't have known each other's faces. However, when Number Nine was almost executed, he saved him. Number Nine was older than him, and the two addressed each other as brothers.

To ensure they wouldn't mistake one another for the other, they made an exception and met to see each other's faces privately.

Number Nine naturally wouldn't immediately believe Bei Shisan, but his conviction had already wavered somewhat.

Dongzhu and her third senior brother were both injured. Xie Wanru went to the Medicine King Hall first. She was not seriously injured, but she was covered in Dongzhu's blood and looked frightening.

Shen Cong'an and Lin Qing rushed to Yaowang Hall to see Xiao Zhuang. When they saw the three of them come in covered in blood, Lin Qing immediately came to greet them.

"Wanwan!"

Lin Qing's heart raced, and Shen Cong'an's brows furrowed, a wave of sorrow washing over him.

"I'm fine, but Dongzhu and Third Senior Brother are seriously injured. What about Doctor Huo?"

Xie Wanru helped Dongzhu sit down. Both of them had external injuries, which could actually be handled by an ordinary doctor, but it would be better to have Dr. Huo treat them personally.

"He is trying to detoxify Xiao Zhuang. He has taken a large dose of silver leaf and hasn't eaten anything for the past few days, so his condition is not good."

Lin Qing's heart calmed down a bit, and she immediately went to find other doctors.

"Thankfully, you're not hurt."

Shen Cong'an blurted it out unconsciously, and saw a hint of resentment in Dongzhu's eyes.

Lord Shen, do you even want to hear what you're saying? Is this even human language?

Xie Wanru ignored them and went to find Doctor Huo, as she also wanted to know about Xiao Zhuang's condition.

When I went to check, I found out that the little boy had fallen into a coma. He was too young and hadn't eaten for a long time. He had just swallowed a mouthful of juice, and his small body naturally couldn't hold on.

After she finished reading, she pulled Shen Cong'an to a corner.

"That man in white looks about 80% like Shen Yanzhi ten years from now, except that half of his face is injured and I can't see his face clearly."

Xie Wanru was still holding Shen Cong'an's hand when she said this.

Recalling that face, Xie Wanru unconsciously tightened her grip. In her past life, when she was seriously ill, it was Shen Yanzhi who personally fed her poison. She hated that person! She hated him so much she gritted her teeth!

She thought she could face it calmly, but after actually touching on it, she realized that her heart was not at peace at all.

"Are you sure? Could it be... that he's also... also from the future? And... he even has his own body?"

Shen Cong'an was also somewhat incredulous. After all, Xie Wanru was still Xie Wanru, only her thoughts were different, but this person in white was an adult.

Shen Yanzhi was still a child at this time, and he was in the Yong'an Marquis's residence. So what was the matter with this person in white?

Xie Wanru wasn't sure either, after all, she herself had lived a second life, and it wasn't impossible that the person was Shen Yanzhi.

"This... is terrifying."

Shen Cong'an couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart. If the man in white was Shen Yanzhi, then he must have come for revenge. Given his memories of his past life, it wouldn't be surprising if he could win over the Simons and the Northern Barbarians.

The key is that he must know a lot of things, because in this life he did not fall into a deep sleep like in his previous life. He may also know Xie Wanru's identity, because everything started to change because of Xie Wanru.

Xie Wanru didn't have a divorce in her previous life!

"He can't live! He absolutely can't live! If he's Shen Yanzhi, he knows too many secrets! I'll immediately have people hunt him down at all costs!"

Shen Cong'an realized that Xie Wanru's connection to the future absolutely could not be revealed!

"Don't be impatient yet."

Xie Wanru pulled him back again, "If he really is Shen Yanzhi, then he must have known my identity long ago, and there's no need to rush. Bei Shisan used to be his man, so he might know some things. Also, the white-clad man we just captured is his follower. Let's find out first. It's possible that he just looks like someone else."

Xie Wanru's heart was pounding, but she had to calm down to avoid making a mistake.

Shen Cong'an also wanted to calm down, but given the current situation, the person was most likely Shen Yanzhi. "The resemblance between people could be a coincidence, but the chances are slim, unless they are related by blood."
