Chapter - 363 What Hope is There For Four Women In the Same Boat? (6) (1/2)
”Right,” Xie Xun replied. Stooping down he unsealed Jin Hua Popo's acupoints.
Zhang Wuji thought that after narrowly escaped death, Jin Hua Popo would certainly forget her enmity towards Xie Xun. Four people went down the hill for several 'zhang's when Zhang Wuji thought that although Yin Li was his own cousin, yet a man and a woman should not be to close to each other; thereupon he handed her over so Jin Hua Popo could carry her.
Zhao Min was leading the way, followed by Jin Hua Popo and Xie Xun. Zhang Wuji was the last, to protect them against the enemy. Looking back he saw the Persian Three Emissaries were still stooping down, searching among the long thick patch of grass. Zhang Wuji recalled the thrill of his defeat just now, and his heart shivered in fear; plus he was not sure if Yin Li would survive this severe injury.
While he was still deep in thought, suddenly he heard Xie Xun's angry shout and saw him sending his fist toward Jin Hua Popo's back. Jin Hua Popo reached back to parry, while simultaneously throwing Yin Li to the ground. Zhang Wuji was shocked and flew forward.
”Mrs. Han,” Xie Xun barked, ”Why do you want to kill Miss Yin?”
Jin Hua Popo laughed coldly, ”Whether you killed me or not, that's your business. Whether I want to kill her or not, that's my business. Why do you care anyway?”
”Since I am here,” Zhang Wuji said, ”I won't let you harm anybody on your whim.”
”Haven't you meddled enough in other people business for today, Sire?” Jin Hua Popo asked.
”That's not necessarily your business,” Zhang Wuji said, ”The Persian Three Emissaries will pursue us here in an instant and you still will not go?”
Jin Hua Popo snorted and ran westward. Suddenly she shot three golden flowers backhandedly toward the back of Yin Li's head. Zhang Wuji stretched out his hand and flicked his fingers. 'Swish, swish, swish!' the sound of golden flowers split the air, flying back toward Jin Hua Popo, stronger than arrows shot from a crossbow.
Jin Hua Popo had already seen his face clearly when Zhang Wuji held Yin Li for the first time and wiped out the beards pasted on his lips. Since realizing this young man's internal energy was surprisingly very profound, she did not dare to reach out and catch; hastily she ducked down to dodge. The three golden flowers swept past her robe and tore away three big strips of clothes on her back. She was so frightened that her heart was jumping madly; she scurried away without even looking back.
Zhang Wuji reached out to carry Yin Li. Suddenly he heard Zhao Min moan in pain while bending her waist and pressed both hands on her lower abdomen. Hastily he went forward and asked, ”What is it?” But then he saw that her hands were full of blood, which was still seeping out from her fingers. Turned out the 'tian di tong shou' had stabbed her abdomen after all.
Zhang Wuji was very shocked and busily asked, ”Is the injury deep?”
Right at that moment they heard Miaofeng Shi cheered, ”I found it! I found it!”
”Don't mind me!” Zhao Min urged, ”Go! Just go!” Zhang Wuji reached out to carry her and rushed downhill.
”To the ship! We escape to the sea!” Zhao Min said.
”Right!” Zhang Wuji responded. With one hand carried Yin Li and the other hand Zhao Min, he sped downhill.
Xie Xun followed close behind; he was secretly astonished, ”This youngster is amazing; carrying two adults yet still able to run this fast.”
Zhang Wuji was so anxious that he felt his heart go numb. Even if only one of these two girls in his hands would die of her wounds, he would hate himself for the rest of his life. Luckily their bodies were still warm and did not gradually turn cold.
