C71 (1/2)

Smoke billowed, and a few gray figures jumped in through the door and the hole in the wall. They raised their hands and let out smoke, and two of them held sharp blades in their hands as they charged towards Helian Manqiu.

At this moment, there was some distance between Helian Manqiu and the others. They knelt in front of the corpses of the two soldiers who had died to save her.

”Don't breathe, it's poisonous!”

Helian Manqiu shouted as her body leaned back. She used the treasured sword in her hand to intercept the weapons wielded by the two men.

”Ding.”

One of them pointed his sword at Helian Manqiu's blade and pointed the treasured sword out of her hand. Her opponent's strength and inner force were both better than hers. Helian Manqiu hastily flipped over and rolled on the ground.

”Sizzle sizzle.”

She waved her long sword but one of them managed to use it twice in a row. The sword in her hand was pointed diagonally out while the other's sword pierced through Helian Manqiu's clothes.

Expert!

A rare expert!

Helian Manqiu's entire body was shivering. The coldness of the sword aura had aroused a layer of goosebumps on her skin. She quickly rolled on the ground and shot out the concealed weapon in her hand, doing her best to dodge.

”The young general …”

Luan Cheng shouted out and used a piece of cloth to cover his nose and mouth as he walked over with a saber.

Helian Manqiu rolled from the ground to a distant place. Luan City used a saber to intercept the two assassins, giving Helian Manqiu a chance to catch her breath.

His back was covered in creamy skin, and even the part where he had bandaged himself was cut open, revealing that he had not fully healed yet. Because of that, blood flowed out from the wound he had just torn.

There were also two wounds that had been cut by the other party. Both of them weren't serious, and they also surged out with a dark red color.

Helian Manqiu looked up and sat on the ground, looking up at the two of them. Her body was still too weak, only fourteen years old.

The difference in their inner strength was even greater.

”Retreat!”

The other party suddenly said something and left in a flash.

Helian Manqiu's eyes narrowed. What did this mean?

Those two people clearly had the ability to kill or at least injure her heavily, but they didn't kill her.

”Tap, tap, tap …”

The sound of galloping horses came from outside, the sound of sharp arrows piercing through the air, the sounds of fighting, orders, and people arriving.

Did he come at the right time to clean up the mess?

A smile suddenly appeared on Helian Man's lips. She lowered her head and sat on the ground, putting away the treasured sword in her hand.

Some of his janissaries had fallen to the ground under the smoke, while others had been killed and many had been injured. Luan City ordered all the windows in the restaurant to be opened, and the wind blew the smoke away.

Luan City came to Helian Manqiu's back. After a few glances, they crouched down and said softly, ”Young General, how about I apply some medicine to bandage your wounds?”

Helian Manqiu nodded. Luan City's reason for asking this question was obviously because they were worried that she was a girl.

Luan City took out the knife wound medicine and applied it on Helian Manqiu's wounds. Some of her janissaries brought water to clean her wounds.

At this time, the people from the restaurant also reacted. They sent in medicine, hot water and clean white cloth to clean up the wounds of Helian Manqiu and co. who were bandaged.

The sound outside gradually subsided as a figure appeared at the entrance. The crowd in the restaurant all kneeled down. The soldier with the bandaged wound quickly bowed down as well. It was a moment of silence.
