“Who are you?!” Xu Yan questioned Gu Yanfei sternly. He grabbed the three-foot-long sword in his hand tightly and glanced at the remaining bandits around him. “Don’t be a busybody.”
The killing intent in his heart intensified. Not to mention that this passerby had killed several of his people, no matter what, she couldn’t be left alive.
Wei Wan was Imperial Duke Wei’s younger sister. If that wasn’t the case, he wouldn’t have had to endure it for so long.
Therefore, no one could be left alive today.
A few men dressed as robbers received their master’s signal and immediately approached Gu Yanfei, who was on her horse, in an encirclement posture.
The bearded man gritted his teeth and pulled out the arrow in his palm. His face twisted in pain, and the blood on his palm flowed even more fiercely.
He tore off a piece of cloth and bit it with his teeth. He bandaged his injured right hand haphazardly and picked up a long knife from the ground with his left hand. Then he looked at Gu Yanfei with a wolf-like bloodthirsty gaze, filled with killing intent.
Wei Wan’s heart skipped a beat. She hugged her daughter and looked up at Gu Yanfei on the horse. “Don’t worry about me. 1 only ask you to bring my daughter along. Hurry up and escape!”
It was difficult for two fists to fight four hands. Just now, Gu Yanfei had taken advantage of the unexpected. Under the premise that Xu Yan and his subordinates were already on guard, it was very difficult for a weak woman like Gu Yanfei to fight against them.
Wei Wan’s lips were pale. The ground under her feet was soaked in blood, but her back was still straight.
“Second Lady Gu, leave quickly!” Wei Wan glared at Gu Yanfei and said firmly. Her red eyes seemed to be saying, “Don’t waste your life here!”
Gu Yanfei raised her eyebrows slightly. When she looked at Wei Wan again, she had a better impression of her.
She had only met Wei Wan once.
She had warned her, but Wei Wan didn’t believe her. In that case, whether she lived or died, it was Wei Wan’s choice.
She could see the lives of others, but that didn’t mean that she should be responsible for everyone’s fate. There were thousands of people, so how could she care?
She had only left the capital this time because of her relationship with Imperial Duke Wei and his family. She had helped out along the way.
But now, Wei Wan made her see her in a new light.
In the Bright Spirit Realm, Gu Yanfei had seen many people who insisted on dragging others down with them when they were on the verge of death, regardless of whether this “someone else” was an enemy or a passerby.
In comparison, Wei Wan’s temperament wasn’t bad.
“Don’t be anxious.” Gu Yanfei took out a talisman.
With a shake of her hand, the talisman burned. A dazzling red light flew out from her fingers and shot into the sky, blooming into a huge firework in the night sky.
The blood-red light illuminated a large area of the night sky and the wilderness below, as if the lighthouse in the darkness had pointed the way for lost travelers.
Xu Yan was really flustered now and his eyes were filled with surprise.
Wei Wan had called her Second Lady Gu just now!
This woman was the Second Lady Gu who had predicted that he would make a move today?!
Could it be that the people from Duke Wei’s Mansion were also nearby?
If the people from Duke Wei’s Mansion arrived at this moment and saw this scene…
The more Xu Yan thought about it, the more flustered he became. He broke out in cold sweat and didn’t dare to think further.
“Do it.” Xu Yan ordered ruthlessly again. Against the red light of the night sky above, his handsome face was like a demon stained with countless blood.
At this point, it was impossible for him to turn back.
He had to silence her before more people arrived!
“Yes, my Lord,” the bearded man and the others replied sharply, deciding to end the battle quickly.
Facing these fierce men, Gu Yanfei didn’t even move the corners of her eyes or eyebrows. She smiled and looked down at Xu Yan from the back of the tall horse. “Do you know the verbal spirit?”
Xu Yan was confused.
Gu Yanfei shook her left hand, and a small compass appeared in her palm. She casually flicked it and smiled teasingly at Xu Yan. “Oh, bloody calamity.”
“…” Xu Yan frowned even more and waited solemnly.
Was she trying to be mysterious, or…
Crack…
As soon as Gu Yanfei finished speaking, a big tree by the roadside suddenly snapped in half. The thick tree trunk fell to the center of the road, as if a building had collapsed. A huge shadow pressed down on Xu Yan’s head.
How could this be?!
Xu Yan’s pupils moved and his eyes instantly widened.
THUMP!
The heavy tree trunk pressed against Xu Yan and the carriage beside him. The cabin-like carriage was pushed to the other side by the tree trunk with a loud bang. Xu Luo, who was in the carriage, let out an uneasy scream.
Dust flew around them, and a hazy gray fog spread.
Xu Luo, who was pressed under the tree trunk, had a swollen forehead and closed eyes. She seemed to have fainted.
This scene stunned the bearded man and the others not far away. Their limbs stiffened, and they couldn’t move for a long time.
This… this was too mysterious!
Second Lady Gu had only said one sentence, and such a strange thing had happened. If they hadn’t seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t have believed it.
The big-bearded man pointed the long knife in his left hand at Gu Yanfei. The tip of the knife trembled slightly, and he shouted, “You… What did you do?!”
Gu Yanfei held her compass in one hand and swept her cold gaze slowly across everyone. Anyone who was caught by her gaze couldn’t help but feel their scalps tingle.
Gu Yanfei sighed and shook her head. She sighed in a sympathetic tone. “A bloody calamity.”
The bearded man and the others subconsciously looked at Xu Yan, who was pressed down by the tree, and their faces turned slightly pale.
No way?
It couldn’t be that effective!
Everyone’s hearts couldn’t help but beat faster. They quickly looked at the roadside, afraid that another big tree would break…
The big-bearded man only hesitated for a moment before decisively shouting, “It’s this girl who’s playing tricks. Get rid of her first!”
The others also felt that it made sense. They held their long sabers and continued to approach Gu Yanfei with cold and solemn expressions.
Wei Wan looked at the calm Gu Yanfei on the horse and then at the murderous men. She gritted her teeth and, ignoring the wound on her back, struggled to pick up another sword from the ground…
“T-t-t-t…”
From the southeast came the more chaotic sound of horses’ hooves. At least dozens of horses were galloping this way, getting closer and louder, rumbling like thunder.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Three arrows pierced through the air side by side, carrying an aura that could swallow mountains and rivers. They were abnormally sharp.
Dozens of people spurred their horses over. The person in the lead was Imperial Duke Wei.
Imperial Duke Wei was old but strong. Three arrows shot out at the same time, and three sounds of landing could be heard at the same time. Three people fell down after being hit by the arrows.
Every arrow was fatal.
In just an instant, three more corpses appeared on the ground. All of them widened their eyes and died with grievances.
Blood flowed on the ground, forming a river of blood.
When the night wind blew, the strong smell of blood lingered.
The expressions of the big-bearded man and the other four changed drastically. They looked at Imperial Duke Wei, who was galloping over, and the guards behind him. They panicked and were afraid.
One of them looked hesitantly at Xu Yan, who was pressed under the tree, and hurriedly said, “Brother Li, why don’t we take the Lord and…” Escape.
The big-bearded man gritted his teeth and nodded. The few of them ran in Xu Yan’s direction with their knives. Together, they dragged the unconscious Xu Yan out of the tree bit by bit.
“T-t-t-t…”
Imperial Duke Wei took the lead and rushed over on his horse. At a glance, he saw the heavily injured Wei Wan. The clothes on her body had almost turned into a bloody robe. It was a shocking sight, and Imperial Duke Wei’s eyes almost popped out.
“All Wan!”
“12th sister!”
Imperial Duke Wei and his wife shouted at the same time.
More than a hundred feet behind, Imperial Duchess Wei also urged her horse over anxiously and arrived with a group of guards.
Looking at Wei Wan, who was covered in blood, and Xu Yao, who was in tears, Imperial Duchess Wei felt as if a knife was being twisted in her heart.
Her mother-in-law had only given birth to Wei Wan at the age of 40. After giving birth, she was weak, so Wei Wan had been raised by Imperial Duchess Wei single-handedly. She had enlightened her, taught her needlework, taught her the ways of the world, and wasn’t much different from a butler… or Wei Wan was like her adopted daughter.
Wei Wan had always been proud and noble. The biggest sin she had suffered in her life was that she had to suffer for three days and three nights before giving birth to twins.
Their All Wan had never suffered like this in the past 27 years!
“Big brother, sister-in-law…” When Wei Wan saw that her brother and sister-in-law were here, she felt relieved. Her voice trembled slightly,slightly and she was weak.
Her eyes were also filled with tears of joy.
Her daughter’s life was saved.
That was good, that was good!
Wei Wan was relieved.
It was only at this moment that she felt a piercing pain from the knife wound on her back. Her limbs were already cold from excessive blood loss.
Clang.
Her last breath finally dissipated, and the sword in her hand fell to the ground.
Her vision darkened and she fainted.
“Mommy! Mommy…”
The little girl screamed in panic. Tears streamed down her face as she threw herself at her mother. Her petite and thin body trembled uncontrollably.
“…” Imperial Duchess Wei flew down from her horse and ran towards Wei Wan. Her eyes were red and filled with tears.
“Eldest Aunt, save my mother!” Xu Yao cried in fear and unease. She pounced over and pulled Imperial Duchess Wei’s hand.
Her right shin was still in pain. As soon as her foot landed, her right calf subconsciously shrank and she looked pained.
Gu Yanfei jumped down from the horse lightly and skillfully, then came to Wei Wan’s side. She frowned and looked at Xu Yao’s scraped palm. Then, she looked at the jade pendant not far from the ground and pondered.
“Yanfei…” Imperial Duchess Wei stared at Gu Yanfei nervously and expectantly. She wanted to ask her if Wei Wan could still be saved..
