“Grandfather, the coachman was killed!” Xie Yutang’s expression darkened. He sprang to his feet and leapt from the carriage to join the fight.
“Co back! Don’t run around! ” The elderly man shouted with dread on his face. Seeing that his grandson had already left the carriage, he imdiately pulled Xie Shisi from the carriage.
Feng Jiu, who was still inside the carriage, followed them out and swept her gaze around. She observed the twenty or so n in black who had attacked the Xie family, as well as the ten or so dark guards who had followed them secretly to protect them.
Their strengths may be comparable, but their opponents were more nurous, so the situation was dire.
Apart from the dark guards, the elderly man and the middle-aged man were the only ones with strengths in the two carriages. The elderly man was now responsible for protecting his two grandchildren, while the middle-aged man was responsible for protecting his wife, who was weak and lacked fighting skills.
The beautiful woman hid beside the middle-aged man, obviously terrified and dumbstruck. Feng Jiu could not help but wonder how the Xie family, which seed to be a large influential clan, could marry a woman with no cultivation. That is odd.
“Hiss, aah!”
Feng Jiu pulled Xie Yutang to avoid the attack. However, because he was terrified and his reaction ti slowed, the two were separated by a short distance when the blade wielded by a man in black thrust between them.
Feng Jiu’s eyes flashed when she saw two n in black attacking from behind.
She could easily dodge the blows and even kill the two n in black if she used her true strength. It would, however, reveal her strength and might make it difficult to approach the Xie family.
Her emotions were shaken by the thought. She hastened to take Xie Yutang in her arms and roll down towards the elderly man when she spotted the two n in black coming to attack.
Just as the two rolled away, Feng Jiu noticed the reflection of a cold blade. She was about to avoid it instinctively, but when it got close, she changed her mind and raised a hand to block it.
The sword intent slashed her arm, leaving behind a bloodstain. Xie Yutang was taken aback when he saw the shed blood. He looked at Feng Jiu, stunned. He couldn’t believe this little mute stranger was injured in order to save him…
