I started as an exile, and I relied on space to support my family of loyal heroes.

Don't be fooled by the imperial guards who usually look majestic and arrogant. They always talk down to the Xiao family.

But if they really fight with Xiao Yunzhan, few can last more than three moves, and they are all so cowardly.

It's just that my skills are not as good as others, and I feel jealous.

But he still had awe of the God of War in his bones, so he was far behind in momentum. When he saw the lively Xiao Yunzhan, he was already afraid, so what was the point of fighting?

Listening to the sounds of fighting not far away, Jiang Xu didn't dare to breathe, his mind frantically thinking about how to escape this disaster.

........

"Second sister-in-law, be careful!"

Before Lin Yiran finished her words, a sword pierced through the back of her second sister-in-law's neck and directly into the chest of the eunuch who was holding up the sword on her right.

The second sister-in-law's pupils trembled. She turned her head and saw the eunuch guard who was a head taller than her. She gritted her teeth and kicked the eunuch guard in the stomach.

The eunuch guard who had just been stabbed by the sword screamed and fell to the ground.

The second sister-in-law took two steps forward, raised the sword, and struck the palace guard hard in the neck.

"Bah!"

The palace guard tilted his head, staring with his eyes wide open, and blood spurted out of his neck for two miles.

"Bang~"

The palace guard's head hit the ground heavily and he was completely dead.

The second sister-in-law let out a long sigh, turned around and looked at Lin Yiran with gratitude.

"Thank you, Fourth Sister-in-law. If it weren't for you, I would be in such a mess..."

The man was so close to her that she was almost ambushed.

She was so busy dealing with the imperial guards in front of her that she didn't notice there was someone next to her.

She didn't feel anything just now, but now when she thought about it, she couldn't help but feel a little scared.

"Don't be polite, sister-in-law, be careful."

Lin Yiran raised her chin and looked around.

Except for the five or six eunuch guards surrounding Xiao Yunzhan and the dozen or so eunuch guards lying on the ground, all the others were hiding behind the huge rocks that had rolled down nearby.

The second sister-in-law followed Lin Yiran's gaze towards a boulder not far away, walked up to her and said softly,

"How many people are behind Fourth Brother's wife?"

When the boulder rolled down just now, she took a quick look and saw that there were definitely more than just these few people.

There was no other place to hide people nearby, only these huge rocks that rolled down from the mountain.

Lin Yiran's ears moved slightly and pointed at the nearest boulder.

"There are 5 people hiding behind this piece, 3 people hiding in the piece a little further away, 1 person hiding in the piece next to it, and... "

So close that she could tell how many people were hiding behind each stone just by listening to their breathing.

If it weren't for the crackling sounds of Xiao Yunzhan fighting nearby, she would have known it without even listening carefully.

The second sister-in-law looked at Lin Yiran with sparkling eyes and raised her hand to give a thumbs up.

"Fourth brother's wife is amazing."

The second sister-in-law glanced at the family members sitting around the two big potters not far from the foot of the mountain, and smiled slightly.

"Which stone do we start with?"

It was so satisfying for her to fight. The martial arts of these palace guards were really not good, and she could handle two of them alone.

If she hadn't become a little lazy and practiced less over the years, she might have been able to beat three of them easily.

Lin Yiran looked at her second sister-in-law who looked eager to try, and glanced at Xiao Yunzhan with a smile.

"Let Xiao Yunzhan go. It's a bit dangerous for the two of us to go."

Although she could hear that there were several people behind the rocks, the enemy was in the dark while they were in the light, so these people would definitely hear their footsteps when they walked over.

With her and her second sister-in-law's abilities, it is still difficult to kill so many people accurately at once.

As he spoke, Xiao Yunzhan had already dealt with those palace guards and walked to Lin Yiran holding a bloody sword.

He looked at Lin Yiran steadily, then glanced at his second sister-in-law, and his eyes fell on a few large rocks not far away.

"Stay here and don't act rashly. I'll go over and take care of them."

"Okay, go ahead and clean it up..."

Lin Yiran understood Xiao Yunzhan's meaning immediately and responded in agreement.

First scare the enemy and make them reveal their true colors, so that it will be easier for Xiao Yunzhan to take action.

The second sister-in-law raised her eyebrows, stared at the direction of the stone with a sword in her hand, ready to strike at any time.

Xiao Yunzhan and Lin Yiran did not lower their voices at all.

The palace guards hiding nearby heard it exactly. They were so frightened that their faces turned pale and their breathing became heavier due to nervousness.

Jiang Xu was so frightened that his pupils widened, his body couldn't stop shaking, and sweat dripped down from his head.

It’s awful, awful. I’m going to be silenced. I can’t fight back. What should I do?

The men next to Jiang Xu were shaking with fear, their upper and lower teeth chattering rhythmically.

The sound of chattering teeth made Jiang Xu's head numb and he felt like his head was going to fall off at any moment.

"Jiang...Brother Jiang, I...I don't want to die..."

Wei Heshan curled up on the ground like a baby, pulling Jiang Xu's clothes with trembling hands, tears in his eyes and full of fear.

Jiang Xu glared at Wei Heshan, as if that person wanted to die.

Listening to the footsteps getting closer, his heart beat wildly and his ears were filled with the sound of his heartbeat like a drum.

Thinking of the horrific scene of his head and body being separated, he almost couldn't breathe.

At this critical moment of life and death, Jiang Xu suddenly saw Wei Heshan lying on the ground twitching, with a hint of white revealed under his dirty robe.

His eyes lit up, and he lifted up Wei Heshan's robe, reached into Wei Heshan's pants, and pulled his underwear hard.

Wei Heshan's pupils trembled, and he instantly felt the pain in his buttocks.

His butt unconsciously thrust upwards, his face turned green from the pain, and he had to bite his back teeth hard, not daring to cry out.

"Stab~"

A sound of cloth tearing was heard, and Jiang Xu successfully pulled off a piece of Wei Heshan's fishy-smelling underwear.

Jiang Xu did not dare to pause, and quickly tied the white cloth to the sword, then tremblingly rose up, shaking it twice.

"Surrender, we surrender, General Xiao, please show mercy, we are all willing to join the Xiao family army, and we beg General Xiao to spare our lives..."

Jiang Xu shouted in a trembling voice, and after he uttered the word "surrender" with difficulty, he said it more and more fluently.

I only have one life, I can't just give it up like this. Since I'm not as skilled as my opponent, it's normal to surrender.

It's not shameful, not shameful at all.

"I---I am also willing to join the Xiao family. We are all willing to follow the Xiao family's lead. General Xiao, please spare my life..."

Wei Heshan endured the discomfort in his body and shouted at the top of his voice to surrender.

As long as he can live, anything is fine.

Immediately afterwards, shouts of "willing to surrender" were heard one after another from behind the next few stones.

Lin Yiran turned her head and looked at her second sister-in-law, and they both smiled.

Xiao Yunzhan didn't move at all, he just took two steps on the spot.

"come out!"

Xiao Yunzhan looked at the swaying white cloth and said in a deep voice.
