"follow me!"

Li Huai grabbed Zhao Zhiruo's hand and turned back to the Taoist temple. Yang Dong took the initiative to stay behind.

"There's an assassin!"

"Protect the prince!"

"Brothers, after eating the prince's flesh, it's time to do something for the prince."

Thirty Yiqi heard the commotion outside, and under the leadership of Li Xin, they rushed out.

Li Xin was slightly relieved when he saw that the prince was fine, and then looked at the extra woman beside the prince.

Isn’t the prince not close to women?

Where did this little girl come from?

"Yang Dong is still outside, everyone mounts the horse and follows me to kill the enemy!" After Li Huai finished speaking, he took the lead in getting on the horse.

"Your Majesty, danger... follow your Majesty quickly!"

Li Xin was not in a hurry to stop them, so he had to lead his men to follow. However, Li Huai was too fast and kept some distance from them.

Look outside!

All the assassins were besieging Yang Dong. There were corpses lying around her. When she saw Li Huai, she ran out again.

"Isn't this causing trouble!"

as expected.

When the assassins saw Li Huai coming out, they abandoned Yang Dong and headed towards Li Huai.

When Li Xin saw this scene, his heart was in his throat. He kicked the horse's belly and chased after him, hoping to intercept the assassin.

Inevitably, a few of them ran out.

Seeing that Li Huai was about to be overtaken, suddenly Li Huai turned his horse around, raised his eight-stone bow, and shot an arrow.

boom!

The huge force carried by the arrow directly knocked the assassin away.

"good!"

Zhao Zhiruo looked at Li Huai with bright eyes and couldn't help but cheer. He was outstanding in literary talent and could kill the enemy with his martial arts.

Who dares to say that the father of a tiger is the son of a dog?

The son of the hero you admire is also a hero. Is there anything more joyful than this?

Brush! Brush!

Li Huai then shot several arrows in succession, and instantly eliminated the enemy behind him. He saw the righteous cavalry in a mess.

"What do you care about me? Is there going to be a war?"

Li Xin and Thirty Yiqi were both startled. This scolding was really unjust. They were not trying to protect the prince.

So, he took all his anger out on the assassin.

"Charge!"

After all, Li Xin had seen the big scene with the prince. He glanced at the surrounding terrain and saw an open space between the pine trees.

Enough for a cavalry charge.

So he turned around with thirty righteous cavalry, widened the distance, and then returned to charge into the formation, giving full play to the advantage of the cavalry.

"kill!"

boom!

The war horses rushed into the crowd, making a sound like thunder. As soon as the wave came down, the assassins fell on their backs and everyone was confused.

"Glory and wealth are right in front of you. If you don't fight now, your descendants will be slaves for generations to come. How can you be willing to do so!"

There are also people on the Assassin's side who are inciting the atmosphere.

The assassin, who had just been shocked, immediately became red-eyed and charged indiscriminately. Coupled with the numerical advantage, it also put a lot of pressure on the Yiqi.

Li Xin remained calm and kept uniting the thirty volunteers together to form a semicircle, with the wounded soldiers surrounding the center.

Rushing back and forth.

Li Huai used the eight-stone bow in his hand and his archery skills to kill the assassins who threatened the Yiqi.

The Thirty Yiqi were saved time and again by Li Huai's arrows, and their hearts arose with boundless loyalty, and their fighting spirit became even higher.

It was only a matter of time before the Assassins were defeated.

Li Huai felt more and more weird. The level of these assassins was simply too low. They were no different from the rough targets on the shooting range.

Looking at their attire, they all looked like ordinary people, a few of them had animal teeth hanging around their necks, and they had all kinds of weapons in their hands.

There were hatchets for chopping wood, rusty swords, tree sticks tied to the ends of guns, and some people wielding fangs.

Isn’t this standard equipment for bandits?

Bandits generally seek profit, so why would they come to rob a poor prince like him? There might be something fishy going on here.

"The wind is tight, pull it!"

The bandits lost more than half and lost all will to fight. They greased the soles of their feet and hid back in the woods.

"Don't chase after poor bandits!"

Li Huai stopped and wanted to pursue Yiqi to prevent the enemy from deploying a back-up move.

Count people.

There are a lot of thirty volunteers, but half of them are injured. If they are not treated in time, they may be disabled.

It looks like they really have to stay here for a few days.

"Where's Yang Dong?"

Li Huai suddenly discovered that Yang Dong disappeared at some point.

At this time.

Yang Dong walked out of the pine forest, the sword in his hand still dripping blood, and his whole body was full of murderous aura.

"Where have you been?" Li Huai asked curiously.

"Reporting to the prince, I just chased the assassin and captured a tongue. He claimed to be the second master. According to him, someone wanted to spend one hundred thousand to buy the plain female sword in the prince's hand." Yang Dong replied truthfully, picking up a piece of cloth and wiping the sword.

blood stains.

"Plain female sword?"

Li Huai picked up the sword on his waist. It was the only relic left by his mother. Although he couldn't use a sword, he still wore it by his side.

Who would pay attention to a female swordsman?

You must know that the Plain Girl Sword is the companion weapon of the Crown Princess, and it is even recorded in the royal archives.

Even if they grab it, would they dare to wear it?

The royal family of the Yu Kingdom is not allowed to pursue them to the ends of the earth.

Obviously.

Seizing the prime female sword is just a pretense.

The people behind the scenes have ulterior motives.

"Where is the second in charge?" Li Huai continued to ask.

"It's of no value, I'll kill him." Yang Dong said lightly, remembering something, he continued.

"While I was chasing, I found several men in white. They were also chasing the assassin. It is estimated that there will be no survivors."

Kill and silence?

Or are you talking about people sent by Grandpa Huang?

too messy.

Li Huai shook his head and smiled bitterly. He was just heading west to visit the country, so why did so many people come to see him off?

This journey will not be lonely anymore.

That’s fine.

If they like to make trouble, let them make trouble. If things get serious, someone will come out to clean up the mess, so you don't have to worry at all.

"Li Xin, please bring the injured brothers in first, get some more hay, and let them lie down to rest first. I will think of a way to cure the injuries," Li Huai ordered.

"As you command!"

Li Xin didn't talk much and just took care of things, but he was not sure in his heart. Can the prince really get the medicine to cure the injury?

The only mink fur they had was used in exchange for food.
