When the prince is reborn, he will only hit me if he doesn't hit the wall!

When the last knife penetrated her flesh, she held back her tears and her hands trembled slightly.

It wasn't because she was afraid, as it was not uncommon for doctors to die. But she thought that even if she killed Yang, her mother would never come back.

She stood stiffly, gripping the knife handle tightly, staring straight at Yang, and was reluctant to draw the knife.

"Yueyue."

A low sigh was heard in her ears, and another hand covered the back of her hand, helping her to draw out the dagger.

Xu Xinyue took a deep breath and just remembered that she couldn't stay here for too long as the next plan had not yet been implemented.

She calmed herself down and stood up with the help of the person next to her.

Qin Yuechuan wiped the blood that splattered on her cheek with his hand: "Let's go, someone will take care of it here."

Xu Xinyue still looked at Yang with a cold expression and said, "No need, I have never been here tonight. It was not me who killed Yang."

She pulled out the only short hairpin with gold-plated cinnamon twigs and pearls on her head.

With a light flick, it landed beside Yang.

Xu Xinyue lifted the hem of Yang's skirt with her foot, and the short hairpin was hidden under the fabric.

"Xu Baiyu, I told you that you can't afford this knife of mine."

Xu Xianyue left the meditation room and took off her bloodstained outer shirt.

"Xuan Yi."

Xuan Yi dodged and listened to the instructions quietly: "Burn this, it doesn't have to be burned completely, bury the ashes in Xu Baiyu's yard."

Xuanyi took it: "Yes."

"Did Xu Baiyu escape?"

"She has already escaped from the Xu family, but my subordinates stole most of her travel expenses and travel permits, so she cannot leave Kyoto for the time being."

"Well, if the government investigates, quietly provide some clues."

A cold wind suddenly blew, and Xu Xinyue's hot blood cooled. She couldn't help but shiver slightly, as she was covered with a warm cloak with body temperature.

Qin Yuechuan held Xu Xinyue's waist with one hand and pressed her into his arms: "If something happens later, Yueyue doesn't have to be afraid. I'll take care of everything."

Xu Xinyue pressed her cheek against his warm chest, wrapped her arms around his waist, and nodded imperceptibly.

The sky was dark black and cold, and within a radius of ten miles, the sound of dead branches rustling suddenly could be heard.

Xu Xinyue had heard about Qin Yuechuan's plan, and moved closer to him, holding his shirt tightly. She closed her eyes, knowing that she could do nothing, and could only obediently reduce her presence to the minimum, trying not to be a burden to him.

Men in black suddenly appeared from all directions and surrounded the two.

There was no unnecessary words. The sound of swords clashing filled Xu Xinyue's ears. It was chaotic and disorganized. She couldn't tell who was close or distant, and for a moment she couldn't tell which side was Qin Yuechuan's.

Qin Yuechuan fought with ease and skill while wielding the sword with one hand. Even as he flew over the ground, he did not forget to take into account the feelings of the person in his arms. He could feel her body stiff and her nerves tense, and the heat from her breath as she rose and fell trembled through the fabric of her clothes and soaked into his chest.

Qin Yuechuan rubbed her hair with his chin to comfort her, and whispered: "Don't be afraid, it will be over soon."

He could not see, but his senses were maximized. Xu Xianyue realized that a new group of auras had joined the rear and attacked more fiercely, but this group of people shouted: "Your Highness, someone is willing to pay a large sum of money to take your life!"

The two forces were confronting each other, and at the same time were chasing Qin Yuechuan relentlessly. The night was dark, and they were all killers in black. Surrounded by layers of assassins, Xu Xinyue bravely looked through the gap in the cloak, and saw swords clashing and golden light flashing. She couldn't tell which side was the "acting" that Qin Yuechuan mentioned a few days ago.

There was a cold light coming straight at her, getting closer and closer. Her eyes widened and she tried hard to restrain herself from screaming. As it approached her, it narrowly passed by her shoulder!

It turned out that no one knew whose weapon had been thrown away.

Qin Yuechuan's eyes were cold and fierce. He raised his arms to protect Xu Xinyue with his body, turned her around, and glared fiercely in the direction where the weapon slipped out of his hand.

The man knew that he had made a mistake and caused a big disaster. He was sweating coldly, but he was concerned about the current situation and did not dare to delay for a moment and immediately threw himself into the battle.

A group of people were chasing Qin Yuechuan relentlessly. Xu Xinyue's feet were suspended in the air, unable to land on anything. The sound of the biting cold wind whistling past seemed to be rushing towards Qin Yuechuan's back.

Someone among the men in black shouted, "Prince Rong, the road ahead is a dead end, surrender!"

Xu Xinyue didn't know if there was really no way out ahead. She only felt Qin Yuechuan suddenly stop, hugged her tightly, turned around, and said in a cold voice:

"This is your purpose, you want to take my head back and report back?"

"Even if I were to be torn to pieces, I would not satisfy the person behind the scenes!"

Then he whispered in her ear in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Yueyue, believe me."

Xu Xinyue didn't say much, and her arms around his waist tightened a little.

He laughed softly above his head, and then he said loudly: "Even if I commit suicide, I will never be captured!"

After he finished speaking, he turned around and jumped!

Xu Xinyue suddenly felt her body lose weight, and the strong wind blew her clothes and hair into a flutter.

The sharp hissing sound of the long sword cutting through the stone wall pierced his eardrums and hurt him. Xu Xinyue guessed that the current situation should be what Qin Yuechuan said, "jumping off a cliff to survive." He gritted his teeth and endured the discomfort, waiting to hit the bottom.

I don't know how long my heartbeat had been wildly followed by the wind, but my feet finally felt the long-lost sense of stability and steadiness.

"Don't be afraid, Yueyue, it's okay, we are safe."

Qin Yuechuan patted her back and said gently.

"So how do we do now?"

Xu Xinyue left his chest, looked around, and guessed that she should be at the bottom of the cliff.

It was pitch black everywhere and I couldn't tell the direction. When I looked up, I could only see a few sparse stars.

The warmth in his arms suddenly left him, and Qin Yuechuan felt a little lost:

"Don't worry, I have made all the arrangements. It's just that we can't appear in public these days. I guess Yueyue will have to stay here for a few days and suffer a little."

Xu Xianyue said nonchalantly:

"It's not that bad. I'm not a pampered young lady, and I'm not someone who can't stand the slightest hardship."

It was just that Qin Yuechuan led Xu Xinyue through twists and turns and brought her to a secluded place.

Xu Xinyue saw with her own eyes the kind of "hardship" Qin Yuechuan had made her endure.
