As soon as they walked out, several young men in black clothes knelt down and saluted Jiang Ci.

"The subordinate has seen the master."

Jiang Cidao: "Get up, let's get out of here first."

"Yes!"

The group of people walked out of the house, and there were dozens of horses and a carriage parked in the spacious courtyard.

Yan Shu, Jiang Ci, and Yan Huai rode in a carriage, and the others rode horses. After saying goodbye to the owner of the house, everyone took advantage of the night and quickly headed towards the official road.

-

The biting cold wind howled like a ghost, picking up the fallen leaves on the ground and sweeping across.

Not far away, there was a sound of weapons clashing together with shouts of killing and screams. The people nearby had already been awakened by the movement outside, but no one dared to go out to check the situation.

In troubled times, everyone understands that doing more is worse than doing less.

The Crown Prince of Qi, escorted by a group of dead soldiers, got on his horse and prepared to evacuate, but was shot by Ye Lanxuan, who came after him.

Ye Lanxuan showed a proud look on his face and ordered his men to surround Prince Qi and his group of men.

"Ye Shujin, you can't escape. I will capture you immediately without any help. I will spare your life because of my past friendship."

Ye Shujin looked at Ye Lanxuan: "Your Highness, we are friends who grew up together. Do you really want to kill me?"

Ye Lanxuan and Ye Shujin are similar in age. Before King Qi's rebellion, His Majesty still loved this brother very much. Therefore, Ye Shujin, his nephew, was also quite favored. He enjoyed the same treatment as the princes since he was a child. Among the many princes, he and Ye Lanxuan have always had the best relationship.

Ye Lanxuan snorted: "Shu Jin, we are all performing our duties now. Don't blame me. If you want to blame, blame your father for his ambition. His father has valued him so much over the years, but he secretly colluded with Rong Dijun in an attempt to subvert In the Sui Dynasty, as his son, you not only did not advise him to return from his lost ways, but you actually went along with him, how do you expect me to let you go?"

Seeing Ye Lanxuan's resolute attitude, Ye Shujin knew that she could only fight to the death.

"Then let's see who wins between you and me tonight!"

Ye Shujin gave an order, and dozens of dead soldiers immediately began to fight back. In order to ensure that tonight's operation was foolproof, Ye Lanxuan mobilized hundreds of elite soldiers, even though Ye Shujin's group of dead soldiers were all top masters. , can't compete with hundreds of elites, not to mention the fifty archers in his hands.

After a fight, Ye Shujin's dead soldiers fell one after another. Seeing that there were not many of his own men left, Ye Shujin was also seriously injured, and she felt desperate.

Is he really going to die here today?

His father's great cause had not been accomplished, so he was unwilling to die like this.

Ye Lanxuan looked at Ye Shujin coldly and gave orders to his subordinates.

"Capture Prince Qi alive and kill the rest without mercy!"

"Yes!"

Dozens of soldiers stabbed at Ye Shujin with their spears. At the critical moment, hundreds of men in black suddenly appeared on the nearby roof. One row of archers took the lead and shot a row of arrows straight towards Ye Shujin. Ye Lanxuan left.

When something unexpected happened, Ye Lanxuan's guards were the first to react.

"Protect Your Highness!"

The man in black on the roof flew down and joined the battle with his sword.

Ye Lanxuan looked gloomy, why did so many men in black suddenly appear?

Hundreds of people were hiding in the dark and were not noticed by them. It can be imagined that these people are masters with deep internal strength.

The men in black cooperated tacitly with the archers on the roof, and the people brought by Ye Lanxuan were quickly shot and killed, and dozens of them were wounded.

Seeing that reinforcements were coming, several dead soldiers protected Ye Shujin.

"Your Majesty, let's retreat first!"

Ye Shujin covered the wound, raised her head and glanced at the roof, and a familiar figure instantly fell into her eyes.

"It's him?"

Was it the boy in blue who actually saved his life?

Full of suspicion, Ye Shujin was escorted by several dead soldiers and quickly fled towards the city gate.

On the roof, the young man was wearing a blue brocade robe, with a silver cloak draped over his shoulders. Three thousand black hair was held up with only a white jade hairpin. His long hair hanging down around his waist was floating in the wind like silk. At this moment, he was looking coldly at the people below. everything.

In today's round, the situation among the three families was completely muddied.

Liu Hanyue reached out and took the bow and arrow from his hand, mounted three arrow feathers, and aimed at Ye Lanxuan's direction. With a whoosh, the three arrows were shot out instantly.

"Be careful, Your Highness!"

Several guards quickly waved their swords to intercept.

But those three arrows contained a strong internal force that Ye Lanxuan and several guards could not resist. In the end, it was two guards who stood in front of Ye Lanxuan and allowed him to escape. And those two The guard was seriously injured, and Ye Lanxuan fell to the ground because the horse was frightened.

"Your Highness, how are you?"

The guards rushed forward and hurriedly helped Ye Lanxuan up.

Ye Lanxuan looked up towards the roof and saw a man in blue wearing a silver mask put away his bow and arrows and staring at him with mocking eyes.

He was full of doubts, who was this person?

Seeing Ye Lanxuan's embarrassed appearance, Liu Hanyue curled her lips in satisfaction.

"Let our men withdraw!"

"Yes!"

The subordinate next to him blew his whistle, and the men in black on the street received the order and quickly evacuated.

Ye Lanxuan stared at the retreating group of men in black with a gloomy expression, secretly guessing their identity.

Their skills were much higher than those of the dead soldiers around Ye Shujin. If they were Ye Shujin's people, how could they watch Ye Shujin being seriously injured before taking action?

If they were not Ye Shujin's people, why would they help Ye Shujin get out of trouble?

Liu Hanyue flew into a courtyard, and a mysterious guard in black clothes stepped forward.

"Master, Jiang Ci and the others seem to have left Luo City."

Liu Hanyue frowned slightly, and a hint of gloom flashed under her eyes.

"seem?"

The subordinates who reported back lowered their heads: "The people sent to follow have lost their way. They seem to have discovered that our people were monitoring them in the dark. By the time our people rushed to the South City Gate, dozens of them were already there. Whereabouts unknown.”

Liu Hanyue sneered, and all the north and south city gates were sealed. Jiang Ci could actually lead dozens of people from the Xuan Sect to leave safely. He really underestimated him.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Hanyue walked straight to a horse, grabbed the reins with one hand and climbed onto the horse's back.

"Leave the city immediately!"

"Yes!"
