Jing Ruxuan obediently nodded his head.

”I'll send you down the mountain to find the guards.” Mo Ranran looked at them and decided to watch them meet up with the guards before he left.

Although Mo Chu and Ling Wu knew some hand and hand techniques, they only knew a little about them. Although Mo Chu and Ling Wu knew a little about hand and foot techniques, they only had a little bit of strength, and they might not even be able to defend themselves.

Not far away, the imperial guards seemed to have thought of a plan. A group of people split into two groups, one group walking towards Mo Ranran.

Just then, Mo Ranran heard the sound of arrows tearing through the air, following that, arrows rained down from the sky, aimed straight at the group of guards.

Ah!” Help!

”Assassins!”

”Protect the empress!”

At that moment, the pavilion was in complete chaos. The woman's screams and the sound of fighting were especially ear-piercing.

”If the assassins charge, what should we do?” Mo Ranran and Jing Ruxuan's pavilion was considered closer to the inside, as it was not affected at the moment.

”Let's leave this place first.” Seeing that, Mo Ranran gave them a meaningful glance, signalling them to follow him.

When the other girls saw Mo Ranran move, they scattered and escaped.

As if guessing that they would run, many men in black clothing suddenly sprang out from the surroundings and started to capture them one by one. The women were all helpless and could not run far before being captured by the men in black.

Just as Mo Ranran was about to bring Jing Ruxuan down the mountain, a black clothed man suddenly appeared in front of her.

Mo Ranran raised his eyes slightly, released the hand that was holding onto Jing Ruxuan, and turned his other hand. He took out a dagger, and with a flash, he appeared behind the black clothed man, and took his life with one slash.

Ah!” Jing Ruxuan, who had never seen anyone kill before, screamed in fright.

”Let's go!” Mo Ranran glanced at Jing Ruxuan who was screaming. He did not bother to comfort her and grabbed her hand, running down the mountain.

The black-clothed man probably did not expect that there was actually someone who knew martial arts amongst the female disciples, and when they realised that their comrade had died, they would no longer be able to see Mo Ranran and Jing Ruxuan.

Under Mo Ranran's lead, the few of them successfully avoided the black-clothed men in the pavilion, and escaped down the mountain. Before they walked far, Mo Ranran suddenly stopped, and pulled Jing Ruxuan along to hide in a patch of grass.

Mo Ranran's movements were quick. Ming Dong froze for a moment, and before he could react, Ling Wu, who was at the side, pulled her along and hid within the bushes.

”How …” The moment Jing Ruxuan who didn't know what was going on opened his mouth, his mouth was immediately covered.

Mo Ranran shushed them and whispered, ”Shh! ”Don't talk.”

Just as Mo Ranran's words fell, a group of black-clothed men executed their Lightness Exercise and rushed towards the pavilion.

He did not know if it was because of fear or not, but Jing Ruxuan's body stiffened, and did not dare to move recklessly.

Ling Wu, who was at the side, also covered Ming Dong's mouth, afraid that she would make a sound.

When that group of people left, Mo Ranran waited a little longer before letting go of his hand and coming out of the bushes.

Jing Ruxuan who had obtained his freedom could not help but ask: ”Are those people assassins?” There was a trace of fear in the voice.

”Well, we have to get down the mountain.” Mo Ranran nodded, raising his eyes to look at the bloodless Jing Ruxuan, the expression in his eyes slightly sank.

”I can't walk anymore. Can you let me rest for a bit?” The fear that occupied Jing Ruxuan's entire mind just now had lessened a little. She felt that her two legs were as heavy as a million kilograms and she couldn't even lift them up.
