"What... are you doing?" Tang Mumu was about to scold Rong Yan when an arrow suddenly flew past Rong Yan's ear and embedded deeply into the low wall behind him. Tang Mumu was so frightened that she was stunned for a moment. If Rong Yan hadn't pressed her head down just now, her head would have definitely exploded by now.

"Are you okay?" They both expressed their concern for each other. Tang Mumu immediately shook her head. Rong Yan said in a cold tone, "I'm fine too. I'm not sure who these people are at the moment, but judging from their skills, they must be extraordinary. You can't do anything until your wound heals. I'll protect you and help you leave the alley. I'll hold them back, and you can run when you find a chance."

Rong Yan raised her eyes to check the other party's situation, her face was grim. This place was not far from the palace, and Mo Yi was there. As long as she could hold these people back, she would be fine.

"No, we have to walk together."

Tang Mumu stood up and rushed out, but Rong Yan pulled her back and held her in his arms. He originally wanted to tell her not to make trouble and return to the palace, but when he met her rosy eyes, he couldn't utter a word.

Tang Mumu wiped away her tears, her expression stubborn, "We haven't settled the accounts between us yet. It's ok that you ignored me during this period, but now you want to leave me alone. Rong Yan, are you still a human being?"

"When have I ever ignored you? You have always ignored me. Now I just want to protect your safety. I will try my best to hold them back. This place is not far from the palace. You will be safe when you return to the palace. Just listen to me."

"What about you?" Tears rolled down her cheeks again. Tang Mumu sniffed, holding onto Rong Yan's sleeves tightly with both hands, and said firmly, "If you die today protecting me, I will never be well again."

Rong Yan's heartbeat seemed to slow down. He stared at her for a moment, then compromised and held her wrist with his backhand. "Follow me for a while. Your injuries haven't healed yet, so don't act rashly."

"Actually, it's almost healed..."

Rong Yan's eyes narrowed, and Tang Mumu immediately shut up, then nodded and said, "I understand."

The attack stopped. Rong Yan first leaned out to make sure that the person on the opposite side would not take action immediately. Then he bent down and pulled Tang Mumu up to protect him by his side.

"Yanxi?"

After seeing clearly who the person opposite him was, Tang Mumu was stunned for a moment. Thinking of the night when he had used the Word Spirit Gu to plot against him, his heart tightened and he quickly looked up at Rong Yan. Coincidentally, the other party was also looking at him with a cold face and lowered his eyes.

"Do you know him?" Rong Yan's tone was so cold that even Tang Mumu shuddered.

"He is Yan Xi. Last time when I went out of the palace to discuss how to save you with Song Jinyu and the others, he led people to stop me and tried to steal the account books and scrolls from me. He is the Duke of Anguo's man."

Tang Mumu tugged at Rong Yan's sleeve, and Rong Yan bent down slightly to match her movements. Tang Mumu tiptoed to his ear and whispered, "He is very good at martial arts. I had to use the Word Spirit Gu to trick him last time and I was lucky enough to escape from his hands. You have to be careful of him when he attacks later."

"Duke Anguo has been captured. He brought so many people with him. He must be determined to kill us. I didn't bring any poisonous insects with me today. Besides, you were seriously injured before. You must be extra careful when we fight later. Don't open the wound that has just healed again."

"Can you two hold back a little? I am a human being after all, and I am the one who wants to kill you. It makes me uncomfortable to see you two being so affectionate as if no one is around."

The smile on Yan Xi's face was a little broken, and his eyes never left Tang Mumu. When she met his eyes, Tang Mumu couldn't help but shivered. The next moment her sight was blocked by Rong Yan, who slightly leaned forward and blocked her completely behind him.

Looking at the tall figure in front of her, Tang Mumu subconsciously reached out and grabbed his sleeve. It seemed that as long as Rong Yan was there, any problem could be solved easily, and she would feel safe as long as he was there.

Yan Xi saw Rong Yan's movements clearly and smiled, "Are you Prince Rong? Last time, this girl used evil magic to harm me and threatened to die in the palace, all for you?"

Yan Xi carefully looked at the man opposite him, stroking his chin and said seriously: "Although he looks good, you actually need a woman to run around for you. It doesn't match the reputation in the rumors. Now I see that he looks like a gigolo who eats and drinks for free."

"You are the gigolo." Before Rong Yan could say anything, the person behind him had already looked over at Yan Xi with his hands on his hips. Rong Yan was stunned at first, and then the corners of his mouth curved up. It seemed that Mu Mu was still the same as before and couldn't bear to see him being scolded.

"I thought you were pretty last time, but now it seems that even demons and monsters are prettier than you. If you dare to say that about my husband again, I will tear your mouth apart when I find the chance."

Yan Xi blinked, was stunned for a moment, and then laughed. Her eyes looked at Tang Mumu brighter and brighter. Almost in an instant, Yan Xi felt the murderous intent emanating from King Rong who was standing next to her.

There was murderous intent in Rong Yan's eyes. In just a moment, he understood what kind of emotion was in Yan Xi's eyes when he looked at Mu Mu just now. He was a man, and he could sense that Yan Xi looked at Mu Mu clearly as if she was a toy, and a toy he liked at that.

Yan Xi actually dared to look at his Mu Mu with such eyes, Rong Yan could not tolerate it no matter what.

In an instant, Tang Mumu only heard the sound of weapons colliding, and didn't even see how Rong Yan made the three darts that had just been nailed to the wooden table fly quickly towards Yan Xi's head. He only had time to see Yan Xi quickly turn his head to the side to avoid them.

The sound of flesh being cut could be heard, and in an instant the three people behind him were dead.

Yan Xi seemed slightly stunned, met Rong Yan's gaze, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.

"I was shortsighted before. I didn't expect that His Royal Highness Prince Rong could really bear the title of God of War. Yan Xi would like to apologize to His Royal Highness Prince Rong."

Rong Yan frowned, not hiding his disgust for Yan Xi.

Tang Mumu put away her shocked expression. Thinking about it, it seemed that Rong Yan did not take action in front of her very often. Now that she thought about it, it seemed that it was because he could usually eliminate all his enemies within just a few moves, so naturally she saw fewer of his moves.

So I don't seem to understand how powerful his martial arts are.

"Now you are scared, right?" Tang Mumu whispered, "My husband is a very powerful martial artist. You should be smart and run with your people now. Otherwise, if there is a killing and heavy casualties, don't blame me for not warning you."

Rong Yan stared at Tang Mumu closely, not missing any little expression on her face. He couldn't help but find it funny after listening to what she said. What she said was so cowardly and arrogant that it made people unable to take their eyes off her for a moment.

Thinking of Yan Xi opposite him, Rong Yan hurriedly looked at him, and saw that he was indeed staring at Tang Mumu with a half-smile on his face, and he couldn't help but get angry.

He pulled the man behind him and hid him tightly, then gave Yan Xi a warning look. The latter naturally understood what his look meant, and he opened the folding fan in his hand and smiled provocatively.

Yan Xi is the person he hates the most in his life, no doubt about it.

"If your eyes don't stay still, I will dig them out for you."
