Chapter 261 Assassin (1)
When they returned home, it was already 3:45 past midnight. The child had already fallen asleep. Only Zhao Yuping and Yun Mengyi were still waiting in the main room. Upon learning that little Huzi had been rescued, they were secretly relieved. The fact that they had settled down and integrated into the village so quickly was also due to the help of Zhao Dashan and his wife. In addition, Huzi was a well-behaved child, and they did not want him to die so young.
"who?"
After saying goodbye to Zhao Yuping and others, Shen Xiangwan dragged her somewhat tired body back upstairs, but she keenly sensed something strange before she even entered the door. The next second, a sharp blade was placed on her neck.
"who are you?"
Lowering his head and looking at the sharp blade that threatened his life in the moonlight, Shen Xiangwan asked calmly. There were guards guarding every place in the village, and there were also a large number of guards and martial arts masters like his master's wife living in his house. However, the other party was able to sneak upstairs without alerting anyone. It was obvious that his martial arts must be unfathomable. I just don't know, is he the Dog Emperor's Dragon Shadow Guard, or a member of the Silver Moon Tower?
"The one who will kill you."
The man's voice was hoarse, and as he spoke, the sharp blade approached her delicate neck again, instantly breaking the skin and flesh on her neck. If he used a little more force, she would be covered in blood and die on the spot!
"Late night."
The next second, Yun Mengyi suddenly appeared with a sharp sword in her hand. As if sensing her strength, the man grabbed Shen Xiangwan's shoulders and walked around behind her to face Yun Mengyi, with the sharp blade still firmly on her neck.
"lady!"
Soon after, Yuan Xiu, Yuan Yue and other people as well as the guards went upstairs one after another. The first thing everyone saw was the sharp blade on her neck. No one had expected that someone would be so bold as to sneak into the house and hold Shen Xiangwan hostage.
"Don't worry about me, go protect mother and child... um..."
They all ran to the second floor, leaving the downstairs completely empty. If there was more than one assassin, Zhao Yuping and the others would be in danger. But before Shen Xiangwan could say anything, the blade on his neck instantly penetrated three inches into the flesh. He gasped in pain, and the pungent smell of blood gradually filled the air.
"Late night!"
"lady!"
Seeing this, everyone was furious, their faces and eyes were full of worry and anxiety, but Yun Mengyi suppressed her anger and said, "If you have anything to say, talk to her nicely, don't hurt her."
Looking at her bleeding wound, Yun Mengyi couldn't help feeling heartbroken. She had never expected that these people would actually come into her house. If anything happened to Wanwan, how would she explain to Chengyi?
"Go downstairs."
Ignoring her injuries, Shen Xiangwan roared with bated breath after she recovered. Her intuition told her that there must be more than one assassin.
"You're looking for death... What's wrong with you? I..."
"bump!"
The man holding her hostage suddenly became furious, and was about to chop her with a knife, but the next second, he found that he could not move at all, and was unable to mobilize his strong internal strength. Soon after, his body seemed to have lost the support of his bones, and he fell to the ground.
"Pfft!"
"what···"
While everyone was still in shock, Shen Xiangwan picked up the assassin's sword that had fallen to the ground and stabbed it into his heart without blinking. The man's eyes widened with confusion and unwillingness. He didn't know until his death why he ended up like this.
"Who are you? Ah..."
"Wow... Grandma..."
"Ahh..."
"It happened!"
Suddenly, there were screams from Zhao Yuping and others, as well as the sound of fighting with swords. Yun Mengyi's face changed and she immediately flew down. The others followed quickly, leaving only Yuanyue Yuanying to carefully protect Shen Xiangwan.
"Ma'am, shall we bandage your wound first?"
"No need. Judging from the voices, there seem to be quite a few assassins. You go down and help Master's wife and the others. I can bandage it myself." Raising his hand to touch his still bleeding neck, Shen Xiangwan refused without a second thought.
"But···"
"Go, this is an order!"
Yuan Yue and Yuan Ying were still a little worried, as their most important duty was to protect her. However, Shen Xiangwan's attitude was very firm, and he used a commanding tone directly.
"Yes."
The two did not dare to argue anymore. They carefully sensed their surroundings and made sure that there were no assassins upstairs before they flew downstairs.
The assassin's martial arts this time seemed to be extremely powerful, and the fight downstairs became more and more intense. Shen Xiangwan did not waste time. After pushing the door and entering the room, he took out a bottle of spiritual well water and gulped it down. He then used it to clean the wound again. After making sure that there was no more bleeding, he simply bandaged it with gauze and went downstairs.
"Bump bump bump!"
In the yard, Yun Mengyi was fighting one against three, the guards were also fighting with dozens of men in black, Yuan Yue and Yuan Ying were protecting Zhao Yuping and her grandchildren, as well as Wei Ling'er, who had just entered the ranks of innate warriors and could not participate in the battle at all. The assassins tonight were obviously different from the ones who had ambushed them before. Their martial arts were much better. No wonder they were able to sneak into the house quietly. They didn't take them seriously at all!
"Ma'am, why did you come down?"
"Late night!"
"Auntie... woo woo..."
“Ahh…”
They noticed she had gone downstairs the first time, Yuan Yue and Yuan Ying screamed in worry. Zhao Yuping and others who were hiding behind them couldn't help but look over. The little cub cried and rushed towards her, but Wei Ling'er was holding him tightly, so no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get over. Instead, the little wolf cub who had been grinning at their feet ran over and kept calling out to her, as if he was complaining to her.
"I am fine."
Giving them a soothing look, Shen Xiangwan bent down to pick up the little wolf cub, looked at the battle inside and outside the yard, and walked towards Zhao Yuping and the others: "Mom, are you okay?"
"No, it's okay. Are you hurt?!"
Zhao Yuping was still a little frightened, but when she saw the gauze on her neck, she screamed almost to the point of breaking into tears, and her legs couldn't help but go weak, and she almost couldn't stand. Fortunately, Wei Ling'er immediately freed her hands and hugged her shoulders.
"Auntie... Woohoo...Auntie, there are bad guys!"
Wei Linger just relaxed a little, but the little cub immediately broke away from her, cried and rushed over to hug Shen Xiangwan's legs.
"Be good, it's okay, auntie will protect you."
Without bothering to reply Zhao Yuping, Shen Xiangwan squatted down and hugged him gently.
"Yeah, auntie, beat the bad guys!"
Burying his head in her arms, the little cub sobbed.
"Okay, beat the bad guys!"
Patting his back soothingly, Shen Xiangwan raised his head and said, "Mom, I'm fine. It's just a superficial wound. You and Ling'er take An Ge'er back to the room first, and leave the things outside to us."
The assassins tonight are all masters. If they continue to stay outside, they will just become targets of the assassins' attacks. If someone is taken hostage, they will be in a passive position.
