Chapter 970: Chapter 973: Exposed
"Hmph, he actually toyed with me earlier!"
He was referring to the time he used Su Yan to threaten Chu Yuxiao, and Chu Yuxiao’s reaction and words at that time.
Su Yan also understood that this time, Chu Yuxiao could probably no longer remain calm and act in front of him.
Her eyes shifted as she asked, "Do you have secret passages in the city? How many people have you ambushed?"
Cang Mo’s eyes flashed a hint of astonishment.
Looking at Su Yan, his eyes grew deeper and darker.
They all say that in chaotic times, beauty reigns. It seems they were talking about her... this woman is actually quite clever at times.
"You don’t need to know that, all you need to do is worry about your own little life."
Su Yan was slightly startled, "Are you planning to kill me?"
Cang Mo didn’t answer her. He turned around and saw that the others had caught up, planning to gather them and continue on their way. Just then, the sound of thousands of horses galloping seemed to come from afar.
Gazing into the distance, they indeed saw faint dust and sand in the air.
A guard’s expression changed slightly, and he said solemnly, "Prince, something’s wrong! Someone’s coming!"
Su Yan’s heart leapt with joy. Could it be that Chu Yuxiao knew of Cang Mo’s scheme, so he sent people to rescue her?
The joy in her eyes didn’t escape Cang Mo’s notice. Cang Mo pressed his lips together, his expression gloomy, "Retreat immediately!"
This was not the time to fight head-on. Preserve yourself for future opportunities.
They quickly moved forward, but the sound of hooves behind them grew clearer and closer.
Cang Mo glanced back, his expression more displeased. He quickened his pace to widen the gap with the approaching army.
His plan was supposed to be foolproof. Why was it detected so quickly?
It must be because of the dozen or so guards who got killed, allowing them to realize they were imposters.
Su Yan also turned to look back, but all she saw was billowing smoke; she couldn’t make out a single person.
She wondered if Chu Yuxiao was among them...
"Split up and run!" Finally realizing the gravity of the situation, Cang Mo shouted. The other guards immediately understood, and a dozen people ran in different directions, trying to confuse the army’s focus.
In the distance, dressed in silver armor, Chu Yuxiao squinted, looking at the scattered little black dots, and ordered, "Divide and capture them all!"
...
First, let me apologize. I went out for a stroll and came back. Also, the article will conclude this week, quite embarrassing... This time, no going back on my word.
