Chapter 170 - Hes Gone (2/2)

She ripped the envelope open and unfolded the letter. After a moment, her face turned even paler.

…

At that moment, Xiao Baoshan was standing at the foot of a mountain. In front of him were two black-robed men. They didn’t bother to cover their faces, so were obviously acquainted with him. Their aim was very clear; to kill Xiao Baoshan.

The round-faced man pointed his sword at him. “Xiao Baoshan, you’re still alive! How do you have the nerve to be alive? Have you forgotten your ident.i.ty? Have you forgotten how many innocent lives died by your b.l.o.o.d.y hands?”

The square-faced man also aimed his sword at Xiao Baoshan, “I heard that you’re married, but you do not deserve it!”

Xiao Baoshan remained silent.

The round-faced man continued, “Xiao Baoshan, your sins have nothing to do with your family. If you’re obedient, then we will spare them. Even if you escape this time, you’ll be killed by others sooner or later. Do you know how many people in the imperial court wish to kill you?”

Xiao Baoshan still didn’t answer. He frowned tightly, seemingly worried about something. He was not a cowardly man, but he couldn’t die, because he had met someone he loved with his whole heart.

As the men dashed at him with swords, he fled deep into the mountain using his superb light-body skill.

The round-faced man shouted anxiously, “Go!”

…

Over the following days, quite a few people went to the county to inquire about Xiao Baoshan’s whereabouts. Many in the county knew Xiao Baoshan, so they all guided the strangers to the Xiaos’ restaurant.
