"Where"s the little girl?",Beiming Xuan suddenly asks.           

Ning Chao is shocked for a moment, and then responds, presses down his surprise and answers, "Running back, I guess that she wants to go over the wall."           

"It"s a real death hunt." The cold and profound voices of Beimig Xuan, from which one can"t tell whether it is regret or hate relief.           

Ning Chao: "..."           

"The battle almost finishes. They know they can"t escape. They will certainly fight back. Ning Chao..." Suddenly, Beimig Xuan knocks at the table, and with a "aggressive" sound, Ning Chao is shocked and hurries to say, "My Lord?"           

"Be careful, don"t hurt that girl." The Ming King has a serious expression, but the order makes Ning Chao stun again.           

Does the master mean to protect Jiujiu?           

What"s the matter with him today? It"s hard not to... Ning Chao begins to have a wild imagination and feels some kind of the unbelievable. After all, his master has been lacking company for so many years. It is the first time that his master feels interest in a "woman".            Doesn"t he like that flat little girl?           

In retrospect of Jiujiu"s emaciated appearance, Ning Chao has a bitter chill.           

At this time, Jiujiu is carefully turning back. She touches the courtyard where she is hung before. There are no living people, but the dead people lying everywhere one by one seem really scary.           

She grabs a feather arrow from the ground and turns her eyeb.a.l.l.s around. If the man is the one she supposed to, it would be the biggest mistake for her to run away.           

How could that man allow her who played tricks on him to escape with impunity?            Considering the rumors that are tossing in her mind at the moment, she cannot help s.h.i.+vering again.           

Then, she does not hesitate to turn and run forward.

In the courtyard in front of the study, people are everywhere at the moment. After the a.s.sa.s.sins attacking here, they find that they are not rivals at all. But they are prepared for everything. After losing most of them, they decide to withdraw, but there is no way out.            Outside the Cloud Palace, people have been ambushed, and their numbers and strength are far above them.           

There is no retreat, so we have to fight until death!           

However, fighting is also a dead end, but since they already know it is a dead end, they fight more intensely.           

At this moment, the war in the courtyard is in full swing!           

Beimig Xuan is sitting in the corridor at this moment. He looks calm and holds a big black bow in his hand. His cold eyes stop at one place occasionally. He shoots as arrow at will. His arrows are never losing its direction and correctly hit the target.           

He doesn"t shoot arrows very often, but it looks chilling enough. He"s too good at archery. No one can stop him to kill a person. If someone has watched, he"s bound to die.            But all he shoots are some ordinary soldiers. He seems to have deliberately let off the a.s.sa.s.sin"s chef leader. Because of this, the a.s.sa.s.sins are more afraid, especially their leader.            He is sure that it would be easy for him to shoot, so every time he strikes a bow, his nerves are tightened up, tighter and tighter, and in the end, the leader almost collapses !        

"Beiming Xuan, I will kill you!"           

Suddenly, the a.s.sa.s.sin leader rushes out of the crowd like a mad man. His sword comes like an electric spur, facing the enemy.           

Beiming Xuan wears the grim smile, which have people only feel that he is the "G.o.d of death" and he is in front of us.           

"Don"t close your mouth if you can."           

Judging from the att.i.tude of these a.s.sa.s.sins, they are all willing to die. Today"s a.s.sa.s.sination, if it fails, it will become benevolent for all of them. They will not let themselves fall into the hands of the enemy, let alone reveal anything.           

But Beiming Xuan doesn"t want them to be so quiet. Now that the leader can rush in at this moment, it"s enough to show that he has collapsed. What else can"t a collapsed man talk out?

Beiming Xuan sits still, and the a.s.sa.s.sin leader"s sword comes like flash, approaching just a step away from him. He still remains motionless.           

The a.s.sa.s.sin is delighted. Maybe it is too late for Beiming Xuan to react.           

"Be careful!"           

Just as the leader of the a.s.sa.s.sin"s sword is about to pierce the face of Beiming Xuan, he suddenly feels a force rus.h.i.+ng straight into his waist. Then he is. .h.i.t and flies a slant into the corridor. He lands on the ground with a "thump" and then rolls out a few steps until he hits the corridor pillar before stopping.           

The b.u.mp, fall and roll are really fatal. The a.s.sa.s.sin leader is injured, he spits out a mouthful of blood and cannot climb up again.           

Jiujiu looks at her achievements, claps her hands satisfactorily, and looks at the cold-faced Beiming Xuan, flattering: "My Lord, are you all right?"           

Beiming Xuan does not pay attention and does not move.           

Jiujiu laughs awkwardly and explains, "I just want to help in time, otherwise..."            "Otherwise I will be stabbed to death by his sword?" Beiming Xuan says with a trace of satire.           

Jiujiu smiles and nods her head, biting her lip quickly.           

She intends to explain it, but as it turns out, the man in front of her clearly doesn"t appreciate it, and... Jiujiu looks at him nervously. It seems that this guy could not really be stabbed.

She does this just to change the relations.h.i.+p, and then he would thank her and let her go, forgets what she has done before, and maybe it would be good for her.           

This is what Jiujiu has planned in her mind before, but now it is obvious that her calculation is somewhat biased.          

 The man looks at her, his eyes are dark and his grat.i.tude could not be seen. It is obvious that he wants to kill her.           

Jiujiu is very depressed.           

"That... I saved you just now." Jiujiu feels that she is obviously lacking confidence.           

"How about that?" he looks up at her.           

"How? You shouldn"t... You shouldn"t thank me for being a "lifesaver"? Jiujiu shouts in her heart.           

"What should it be?" Beiming Xuan jokingly asks.           

Jiujiu grinds his teeth secretly and scolds, but on his face he laughs, steps back and waves, "Nothing, like I never say anything."           

She takes a few steps back. She"d better stay away from the dangerous man.            "Pop-pop-pop..."           

As soon as Jiujiu withdraws, he hears a dense noise exploding in front of him. The sound is not very loud, but it is surprising.           

Then——           

"Ah ah!"           

The screams come one after another. Just now, the a.s.sa.s.sin"s leader stabs him with his sword. The guards of Beiming Xuan do not start, but they all surround him. At the moment, those screams are made by the guards, and they all scream and fall down.           

Jiujiu is shocked to see that there is a blue smoke like things directly covering the north and directly to Beiming Xuan!           

"Toxic!" Jiujiu shouts, and then she rushes over to him.
