After walking a short distance, Chen Xuan imdiately pulled Xiao Yiyi into the bushes, crouching low.
Xiao Yiyi was startled and quickly looked at Chen Xuan, "Brother-in-law, what are you..."
Chen Xuan raised his hand to signal for silence, his eyes fixed ahead.
Not far away, three professional assassins approached, one of them speaking into a wireless earpiece, "Boss, I haven't found the kid yet."
The other party spoke quickly, but Xiao Yiyi could make out the gist.
With a look of fear and unease, she lowered her voice, "Brother-in-law, they seem to be looking for soone... Could they be after us?"
Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, instantly recognizing the assassins' professional identity.
They were clearly coming for him!
"Yiyi, stay here and don't make a sound." Chen Xuan softly instructed.
Taking out a dagger, he silently moved to another side.
One of the assassins was five or six ters away, not noticing anything unusual.
Chen Xuan leaped out, moving with incredible speed.
The assassin had just reacted before Chen Xuan took him out with a dagger.
"Boss, I've found him!"
Another assassin hurriedly shouted and quickly fired at Chen Xuan.
By then, Chen Xuan had taken out the assassin and was hiding behind a tree with a gun.
Bang bang bang...
Bullets rained on the tree, sending wood splinters flying.
Chen Xuan rolled on the ground, decisively firing and promptly eliminating the remaining assassins.
After collecting ammunition from them, Chen Xuan returned to the bushes, "Yiyi, let's get moving! These guys are professional killers, up to no good!"
Xiao Yiyi was completely stunned, never imagining a scene straight out of a movie would unfold in real life.
"Brother-in-law, are we in danger? I don't want to die here!" Xiao Yiyi was about to burst into tears, her face very pale.
Chen Xuan pulled Xiao Yiyi quickly forward, "Don't worry, I'll protect you."
"There! Don't let him escape!"
More assassins chased from behind.
Bang bang bang...
Bullets kept coming, but fortunately, the trees provided so cover.
With Xiao Yiyi as a burden, Chen Xuan couldn't engage in a prolonged skirmish with the assassins.
"Yiyi, I'll hold them off here. You head to the safe spot first."
"Rember the small cave we found? Go there and wait for ! Go now!"
Chen Xuan fired back, covering Xiao Yiyi's retreat.
"Brother-in-law, be careful!" Xiao Yiyi covered her head, quickly running forward.
Just then, an assassin hefted a rocket launcher, kneeling on one knee.
Chen Xuan's face changed drastically at the sight, "Yiyi, get down!"
Without a second thought, Chen Xuan rushed over, pushing Xiao Yiyi away.
Whoosh!
A small rocket streaked through the air, trailing a fiery tail.
A loud explosion erupted, sending debris showering everywhere.
Xiao Yiyi, pushed aside by Chen Xuan, only grazed her skin without severe injuries.
But Chen Xuan, protecting Xiao Yiyi, didn't evade in ti and was caught in the blast.
"Brother-in-law!" Xiao Yiyi's eyes reddened instantly, about to run back.
"Don't worry about , just go!"
Chen Xuan shouted loudly, gritting his teeth against the pain, continuing to fire, suppressing the enemy's firepower.
The assassin prepared to launch another rocket to blow Chen Xuan sky high.
But before he could pull the trigger, Chen Xuan shot him in the head.
However, Chen Xuan's position was exposed, and other assassins fired in succession, one bullet hitting his thigh.
Chen Xuan disregarded it, taking out two more assassins before quickly retreating.
Having been injured by the blast, he couldn't engage in long-term combat, needing to find a hiding spot quickly.
Shaking off the pursuing assassins, Chen Xuan arrived at the small cave, reuniting with Xiao Yiyi.
"Brother-in-law, how badly are you hurt?" Xiao Yiyi's eyes rimd with red, close to tears.
Chen Xuan managed a strained smile, "It's not serious, I won't die."
Just as he responded, Chen Xuan's eyes widened, spotting a black-patterned cobra behind Xiao Yiyi.
"Yiyi, behind you, watch out!"
Chen Xuan urgently warned, suppressing the pain, dashing over to grab Xiao Yiyi.
At that mont, the cobra struck, sinking its fangs into Chen Xuan's calf.
Chen Xuan hid his pain, setting Xiao Yiyi down before slashing the cobra with his dagger.
But he was poisoned!
"Brother-in-law!"
Xiao Yiyi was filled with terror and regret, "It's all my fault you got hurt, making you suffer such injuries."
"I'll detoxify you right now!"
Suddenly standing frozen, she recalled that in the rush to escape, her travel bag was left behind sowhere.
The antivenom was in the travel bag, what now?
"Brother-in-law, wait for , I'll retrieve the bag..." Xiao Yiyi imdiately prepared to dash outside.
