Chapter 262 Lou Yexue is injured
The person who could unleash such a powerful formation did not even lift a hand when facing so many enemies.
In Yan Nanheng's perception, Lou Yexue was no ordinary person either. Lian'er was on the deck of the carriage, and he was sitting inside. Several times, Lian'er almost died, but he didn't intervene.
This act of refusing to help someone in distress greatly angered Yan Nanheng.
At this moment, Yan Nanheng looked at Lou Yexue with dissatisfaction in his eyes. Even Zhai Yun looked at Lou Yexue with confusion in his eyes. Lou Yexue, however, acted as if nothing had happened in the face of these two burning gazes.
As if he couldn't see or know, his expression remained indifferent and cold.
"Some people have been like decorations all this way. They might as well have just left like their maids to avoid getting in the way!" Yan Nanheng became angrier and angrier as he thought about it, and he couldn't swallow his anger.
Zhai Yun was surprised that Yan Nanheng would be so outspoken. Her face stiffened for a moment as she looked at Lou Yexue, whose pale face remained completely unmoved, as if she didn't understand Yan Nanheng's veiled insults.
Zhai Yun gave an embarrassed smile and said, "I'm sorry! Senior Brother Yan is a straightforward person, please don't take it to heart."
Lou Yexue looked up at Zhai Yun. His eyes were deathly calm, without a ripple. He spoke in a calm tone: "I'm injured and need to rest for a while. I won't cause you any trouble."
Injured? Zhai Yun was surprised. How could Lou Yexue be injured? Wasn't he very powerful? Just how powerful was the person who could injure him?
Seeing the turmoil in Zhai Yun's eyes, Lou Yexue continued to explain, "The injury is nothing serious, she just needs to rest and recover. It's just that I can't help her anymore."
Zhai Yun felt a pang of guilt; she shouldn't have doubted Lou Yexue. "Who hurt you?"
When Yan Nanheng heard that Lou Yexue was injured, his eyes widened in shock. Along the way, Lou Yexue hadn't shown any signs of injury except for being unable to fight.
Lou Yexue hesitated, looking at Zhai Yun, unsure how to answer. No one in this mortal world could harm him; he only needed to restore the memories left by the palm mark.
The backlash he suffered was immeasurable; this mark not only violated the laws of nature but was also extremely difficult to remove.
If he hadn't been so anxious to remove the mark on his palm as soon as possible and see the message he had left for himself in the future, he wouldn't have hesitated to take action.
After a long silence, Lou Yexue finally spoke: "It was myself."
Zhai Yun looked at Lou Yexue, her doubts deepening. Had she misheard? Lou Yexue said he hurt himself. How could a person hurt himself? Did he have masochistic tendencies?
Lou Yexue looked at Zhai Yun, who had an incredulous expression, and a hint of horror flashed in her eyes: "I'll explain it to you slowly later."
Seeing that he didn't want to talk about it, Zhai Yun assumed that Lou Yexue really had something difficult to hide, and felt pity for Lou Yexue in her heart.
Such a handsome man, almost godlike, was actually...
Suddenly, rustling sounds came from all around. Upon closer listening, they turned out to be the sound of clothes rubbing together, and people were continuously surging up from all sides.
Zhai Yun and the others were surrounded.
Zhai Yun gripped the sword beside her, stood up abruptly, and listened intently to the sounds around her. She glanced at Lou Yexue out of the corner of her eye and said, "Stand behind me and don't stray too far. There are no fewer than a hundred people coming this time."
Lou Yexue looked at Zhai Yun, who was standing in front of him, and a strange feeling arose deep in his heart. It was the first time he had been protected by someone.
Zhai Yun looked at Lian'er in the distance and instructed Qi Nuo and Yan Nanheng, "You two protect her."
More than a dozen unmasked guards ran towards Zhai Yun, spreading out around her, ready to engage the enemy at any moment.
There was nowhere left for their bodyguards to hide around Zhai Yun; assassins coming from all directions forced them to gather around her.
They shielded Zhai Yun and Lou Yexue in the middle, and dozens of arrows were shot out from the shadows. Following the arrows came wave after wave of men in black.
Zhai Yun's bodyguards were all skilled, and they managed to stop the first wave of arrows. Zhai Yun and Lou Yexue stood in the middle watching them eliminate the assassins.
At first, these people were all in control, but after several waves of assassins, they gradually became more and more vulnerable. Zhai Yun kept an eye on the guards and stepped in to help when they were unable to hold out.
The area was already surrounded by men in black. Seeing that the guards were struggling to keep up, Zhai Yun instructed them to protect Lou Yexue and then flew out of the protective circle.
With swift, cloud-like steps, Zhai Yun cast a long shadow as she moved, and assassins fell one after another wherever she went.
The sword in Zhai Yun's hand was like a rainbow. The assassins only saw a flash of cold light and before they could even defend themselves, they had already entered the underworld.
The meager stamina I had painstakingly accumulated was pushed to its limit after performing this set of moves.
Before the assassin could react, Zhai Yun swiftly and decisively executed the assassin beside her. Her speed slowed down at that moment, and the surrounding assassins, sensing the threat, attacked Zhai Yun one after another.
Fortunately, these assassins were far slower than Zhai Yun. After dismantling their moves, Zhai Yun sent them down in an instant.
Zhai Yun was surrounded by assassins, and at this moment she had no time to care about others. She only knew that the more people she killed, the less danger the others would be in.
Assassins fell one after another, and behind Zhai Yun were corpses. Her hands were numb from the shock, and the speed at which she could draw her sword became slower and slower. Suddenly, she was slashed on the back.
Zhai Yun turned around and slit the throat of the assassin who had slashed her. Her wound healed quickly. In order to avoid alerting the assassins, Zhai Yun used the bent knee of one of the assassins to leap out of the encirclement.
Seeing Zhai Yun take flight, four or five of the assassins flew in different directions to intercept her as she prepared to escape.
Zhai Yun launched several flying kicks, sending those people flying to the ground. Fortunately, she had encountered many assassination attempts recently and wasn't wearing that fox fur coat, otherwise she would have torn them to pieces without feeling satisfied!
Beneath the torn clothing, the wound was healing at a visible speed, with only the ripped fabric remaining as proof that she had been injured in that spot.
Zhai Yun quickly glanced at the battle situation. Qi Nuo and Yan Nanheng, who were protecting Lian'er, were also surrounded. Several guards fell around Lou Yexue, and the rest of the guards were being forced to retreat.
A man in black stabbed at Lou Yexue, who dodged repeatedly. Seeing Zhai Yun's flying figure, Lou Yexue also flew up and headed towards Zhai Yun's position.
Zhai Yunfei flew behind Qi Nuo and Yan Nanheng, grabbed Lian'er and stuffed her into the carriage, urging Lou Yexue: "Young Master Lou, hurry up and go in."
After Lou Yexue went inside, Zhai Yun ordered Qi Nuoyan and Nan Heng: "Withdraw."
Upon hearing Zhai Yun's order, the remaining guards left the battlefield and gathered towards the carriage. Some unlucky guards were pierced through the body by several sharp blades just as they were about to retreat.
Some of the guards, unable to break free from the men in black, chose to continue fighting, buying time for Zhai Yun to escape.
