Chapter 577 Another sudden dark shadow
Hearing a familiar voice, Jiang Yan suddenly raised her head and saw the face that occasionally appeared in her nightmares.
He is the third son of the Minister of Rites, Zheng Chengrui.
He was wearing a light blue brocade robe and pushed the door open while waving a folding fan. He looked like a handsome gentleman, but his face was full of a malicious smile.
Seeing Jiang Yan's eyes suddenly widen and the satisfied look on her face, Zheng Chengrui was very satisfied.
He slowly walked to the bed and looked down at Jiang Yan, who was chained to the bed, with a look of arrogance on his face. "Miss Jiang, you and I are truly destined to be together. Look, we meet again!"
As he spoke, he lifted Jiang Yan's chin with his folding fan and proudly admired the fear on her face, like a wolf looking at its prey.
Jiang Yan was startled, waving her folding fan vigorously and shrinking to the corner of the bed. Although she was terrified, she was more concerned about her mother's condition.
She hugged her knees tightly, staring at Zheng Chengrui with clear eyes and asked, "Where is my mother? What did you do to her?"
Zheng Chengrui leaned forward slightly, approached Jiang Yan, lowered his voice, and said threateningly: "What happens to Madam Jiang depends on your attitude."
Smelling the faint fragrance of a daughter on Jiang Yan, Zheng Chengrui's breathing suddenly became heavier, and his hot breath sprayed on Jiang Yan's cheek, making her back instantly cold and her hair stand on end.
Jiang Yan pushed Zheng Chengrui away with all her strength and threatened in a trembling voice, "Zheng Chengrui, if you dare to kidnap me, my mother, my father, my brother, I... my cousin, the prince's brother-in-law, will not let you go!"
If Jiang Yan had said these things before, Zheng Chengrui might have been apprehensive. But now that his family had Su Xiang as their backer, he didn't have to worry about these things; someone would naturally take care of them for him.
"Once we have made our vows, Lord Jiang will not embarrass me, his son-in-law."
Zheng Chengrui raised the corner of his mouth, his eyes sweeping across Jiang Yan's creamy face, gradually tinged with lust. "If nothing unexpected happened, we would have been a perfect couple by now. You insisted on running to some Qingshi Temple to avoid me. Now I'm here to pick you up and continue our happy marriage. Don't struggle!"
After saying that, Zheng Chengrui pounced on Jiang Yan like a wolf.
"Go away!"
"what……"
Jiang Yan's desperate and terrified screams echoed throughout the yard.
Outside the house, a dozen men in black were guarding, standing guard quietly as if they hadn't heard anything.
At this moment, another black shadow suddenly appeared and flew down from the roof at lightning speed, with a long sword drawn. The two men in black who had no time to react instantly had blood spurting from their necks and fell to the ground.
The other ten or so people, seeing the murderous eyes of the man and their companion lying on the ground, immediately became alert.
"Who are you? How dare you come here and die!"
The black shadow said nothing, but stared at them with cold eyes, and rushed towards them with a sword in hand like a ghost.
The remaining dozen or so men in black saw the murderous intent in his eyes and without hesitation, they said no more and drew their swords to meet him.
The leader of the men in black made a gesture, and a dozen people surrounded the black shadow, and swords and knives flashed and fought each other in an instant.
The men in black attacked from the front and back, cooperating with each other. The one in front attacked the upper body of the black shadow, the one behind attacked the lower body of the black shadow, and the one on the left and right attacked the blind spots of the black shadow.
However, the black shadow's swordsmanship was so fast that it frightened them and seemed familiar.
After a few rounds, the black shadow figured out their routine, flew up directly, and pierced the chest of the leader of the men in black with a sword in the incredulous gaze of the leader.
"You are..." Before he could finish his words, the hand holding the sword twisted, and the leader of the men in black immediately spun and flew out, spitting out a mouthful of blood and dying in an instant.
Seeing that their leader was dead, the others began to hesitate in making moves with their swords. Two men in black took the opportunity to turn around and try to run out of the yard.
The black shadow threw out the long sword, which beheaded one person and then turned to cut the neck of another person.
No one else had ever seen such a strange and brutal sword technique.
Knowing they couldn't win, they didn't dare hesitate any longer and immediately fled in all directions.
The shadowy figure flew forward, kicked one man away, snatched the sword from his hand, and killed him with a single blow. He then chased after the others, killing them one by one.
After clearing out all the enemies, the black shadow immediately turned around and flew towards the place where the scream came from.
"Get out! Get out!..."
"Bitch!" A slap was heard.
Then several more hoarse screams were heard from the room. The black shadow kicked open the door, and saw clothes scattered on the ground, and Zheng Chengrui was pulling off Jiang Yan's clothes.
Zheng Chengrui stopped when he heard the sound, turned his head to look at the door, revealing bloody scratches on his chest.
"Who let you in! Get out!" Zheng Chengrui stared at the man in black who suddenly broke in, frowning tightly, with obvious displeasure in his eyes.
He thought this man was the gatekeeper outside, and obviously he didn't hear the noise outside.
The black shadow's eyes were cold as he stared at Zheng Chengrui as he walked towards him step by step, the long sword in his hand still dripping with blood.
Finally seeing the bright red on the sword, Zheng Chengrui realized something was wrong. Although they were both wearing black clothes, this person was dressed differently from his men.
The murderous look in this person's eyes was directed at him.
"You, what are you going to do?" Zheng Chengrui looked evasive. He got up from Jiang Yan's body and stepped back barefoot on the ground.
"Stop it!"
"Let me tell you, my father is the Minister of Rites!"
"If you dare to touch me, I will kill you..."
Before he could finish his words, the long sword pierced through Zheng Chengrui's chest with a "swish".
Zheng Chengrui looked down at the long sword that was stuck in his chest, his eyes wide open, full of disbelief and fear before death.
Blood began to spurt from his mouth. He looked up at the person who tried to assassinate him. The man in black was looking at him coldly and standing between him and Jiang Yan.
Zheng Chengrui wanted to insult him with the most vicious words and wanted to cut him into pieces, but in the end, after saying only the word "you", his body tilted and fell heavily to the ground.
After dealing with Zheng Chengrui, the man in black turned around to check on Jiang Yan's condition.
She was seen huddled in the corner of the bed, hugging her body. Her cheeks were red and swollen, and there was blood at the corners of her mouth. Her wrists were tied with two iron chains, and her wrists were bleeding. She was staring at him with terrified eyes, tears of fear all over her face, and she looked nothing like the bright and lively girl she used to be.
The man in black stared at the chain on Jiang Yan's wrist, his eyes so cold that they almost froze.
As soon as he raised his hand, Jiang Yan screamed, "Get away! Don't touch me!"
Yan was extremely scared, and the sound of fear echoed throughout the house. She beat and kicked him with her hands and feet.
"Miss Jiang, it's me. I'm fine now."
A cold, familiar voice reached her ears. Jiang Yan paused, her pounding motions stopped, and she stopped screaming. She stared blankly at the person in front of her, trying to verify something.
But his face was covered with a black cloth, and I could see those cold eyes, eyes that seemed familiar.
How could that person be here! Jiang Yan couldn't believe it, thinking it was just an illusion. She just stared at him blankly, her body still shaking.
Realizing that Jiang Yan didn't recognize him, the man in black pulled down his mask and comforted her softly: "Don't be afraid, Miss Jiang. The bad guys are all dead."
"Master Yun!"
"Is it really you!?"
Jiang Yan was still a little bit in disbelief at this moment, and her eyes filled with tears trembled slightly.
"Well, it's me."
Yun Ting raised his hand and held Jiang Yan's wrist. This time she did not struggle. Her eyes fell on the face that often appeared in her dreams, without blinking.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
Two crisp breaking sounds were heard, and Yun Ting easily broke the two bracelets that Jiang Yan couldn't get rid of.
Grievance, fear, and terror surged into Jiang Yan's heart. She didn't care about anything at this moment and threw herself into Yun Ting's arms, crying.
