C9 Risking One's Life to Save

Windward was not a difficult poison to cure, especially after Ye Zixuan had gotten the set up from the system.

However, she didn't have any potions at the moment, so she could only use 10 contribution points to trade for a bottle of Hundred Poisons Pill from the system at a high price.

Her heart ached. This was her life.

She quickly gave the pills to everyone present.

When Fourth Master woke up, Ye Zixuan quickly told him about the situation.

When Fourth Master heard this, his almond-shaped eyes narrowed and a cold light shined in them. He waved his hand to call for his personal guard and gave him some instructions.

The guards quickly began to move. They were all well-trained, and although they were busy, they quickly found the best spots to ambush them.

Fourth Master and Ye Zixuan hid in a concealed location.

Within the time it took to make a cup of tea, seven masked assassins with long swords in their hands appeared in the place where they had previously rested.

They found that everyone had left, leaving only an empty carriage behind. They quickly came out to check.

"Leader, he just left, the bedding is still warm."

"Chief, the fire has also just been extinguished. There are still embers left over from the fire."

Two men in black reported to the leader.

"Chase!" He had to kill the target today. There would be no more mistakes! Otherwise, none of us will survive! " The leader said coldly.

"Yes, we will complete this mission with our lives on the line!" The killer in black answered in unison.

"Split up." The leader did not know that it was because of his order that all of them were sent to the Road to River Styx.

The black-clothed assassin carefully searched, his eyes looking around, but he didn't notice his feet. He tripped and fell heavily, and before he could get up, a sword had stuck out from his back and stabbed him in the heart.

He opened his mouth to scream, but the blood that was gushing out of his throat stopped him from doing so.

Assassin B was also on his guard, a gust of wind blew by, causing him to squint his eyes. In that short moment, he was covered from behind with his hand and had it across his neck.

Out of the seven black-clothed men, only five remained.

The enemy is in the light while the enemy is in the dark. At present, Fourth Master's side has the advantage, but the God of Luck won't always look after some people.

When he was killing the third assassin, he was discovered and the two started to fight.

The rest of the killers had all gathered over, and the guards had also shown up, starting a fierce fight between the two sides.

In the end, the guards paid a heavy price and finally exterminated the remaining five assassins in black.

It wasn't that they didn't want to leave any survivors, but there was no use in keeping any. They had already tried it before, so no matter what, they couldn't pry it open.

Seeing that the danger was over, Fourth Master and Ye Zixuan also came out from their hiding place.

"Search them." Although Fourth Master knew it might not be useful, he still gave an order.

The guards began their skillful search.

After the guard, Wang Jian, removed the mask on the face of the leader of the assassins, he let out a cry of surprise.

"Master, come quickly. This servant has seen this person before!" Wang Jian pointed at the assassin in surprise.

Fourth Master's expression changed drastically when he heard that. He quickly walked forward and Ye Zixuan followed closely behind him.

The system had yet to notify him of the completion of the quest, proving that Fourth Master's danger was still not over. Although he did not know where the danger came from, he still had to follow suit.

Fourth Master looked at that person and frowned. He had never seen him before!

"When and where have you seen him?"

"Last year, when Mulan was in the autumn, I didn't know who he went with."

When Fourth Master heard this, he clenched his fists and hatred surged in his eyes.

Mulan Autumn Shou?

It seemed like this was a huge gift from his good brothers!

"Investigate thoroughly!"

Annoyed, he turned and walked back to the carriage.

At this moment, a woman's scream came from behind Fourth Master.

"Elder, be careful!"

Next, a soft and fragrant body pounced on his back.

The sound of a sword slicing through flesh was accompanied by the painful cry of a woman.

Fourth Master quickly turned around and saw the scene in front of him.

The black-clothed assassin who was originally thought to be dead stabbed Ye Zixuan fiercely in the back with the sword in his hand. It was extremely deep in the flesh.

Ye Zixuan was in so much pain that her face contorted, but she still tried her best to show him a gratified smile.

"Thank goodness you're alright!"

Otherwise, I'm finished!

Damn it! The darned System tricked her again, and she was told to block the sword. It was so painful!

With that, Ye Zixuan fainted in pain.

Fourth Master was surprised. He quickly reached out his hand to support Ye Zixuan's sliding body and carried her onto the carriage.

"Su Peisheng, let's hurry on our way tonight!"
