Chapter 27: Rescuing the Yu Family

*Puff—*

But Yu Yi was clearly overwhelmed, and after throwing the person away, she was hit several times in the back, blood gushing out, and she spat blood.

Moreover, after falling to the ground, the Yu family’s young lady was also internally injured from the impact, too painful to get up immediately. Her white robe was filthy, her hair disheveled and sticky, but compared to the Yu family guard Yu Yi, she was in much better condition, clearly well protected.

“Yu Yi…” Watching Yu Yi lying on the ground, struggling for breath after protecting her and falling into danger, she climbed up with difficulty, tears in her eyes, and turned to run into the depths of the forest.

However, with injuries on her body, she could only run faster by leaning against trees.

“Hmph.”

Seeing this, the leader of the guards snorted, and the curved knife flew out of her hand straight towards the Yu family’s young lady.

Hearing the tense wind behind her, the young lady of the Yu family dared not look back and quickly hid behind a tree.

“Ding—”

The heavy iron weapon made a sound as it hit the wood.

“Young Lady, run!” Yu Yi noticed the danger her young lady was in, luckily avoiding it herself. Relieved, she hurriedly shouted hoarsely.

The young lady of the Yu family still had some skills, but her martial arts were too shallow to match these highly skilled royal guards.

“Don’t even think about it, quickly finish her off.” The leader of the guards, seeing her own curved knife miss its target and her subordinates fail to eliminate the person, reprimanded coldly.

Leaping over everyone’s heads, she extended her fingers like claws and flew towards the young lady of the Yu family.

“Yes.”

The guards raised their weapons again, and just as they were about to strike, Yu Yi would have become a dead soul under the blade.

But at this critical moment, a calm and soothing sound echoed.

“Yoo—”

Everyone subconsciously stopped their actions, feeling the chilling killing intent coming from all directions, most terrifyingly, they couldn’t detect anyone nearby.

“Who is here? If there’s any disturbance, I hope you can forgive us.” The leader of the guards retracted her movements and bowed slightly towards the void, unable to see her face.

This sound was initiated by Chen Xin. Originally, she didn’t want to interfere, especially when it involved the royal family. However, Yu Yi’s words touched her somewhat.

She had loyal subordinates, and although her entire family was wiped out, there shouldn’t be any major grievances or charges against her. It was all just driven by interests. Indeed, in the eyes of those high above, life was as insignificant as grass and dust underfoot.

However, she was accustomed to it.

The experience of the young lady of the Yu family was so similar to hers. Only, while her entire family was exterminated, she still had loyal subordinates.

Although she had a family behind her, having or not having one made no difference. Moreover, the enemy was still a blood relative. For her, the only valuable thing was the resources provided by her family.

Chen Xin didn’t want to confront the royal family. That was definitely the source of all plots and schemes. If she were alone, she wouldn’t think like this, but the safety of the Xiao Yu’er was something she had to consider, especially since she had just hesitated.

Therefore…she had to eradicate the roots.

No one would know what would happen next.

“You did disturb me indeed, so I have to make you all quiet.” The ethereal voice came and went, and it was impossible to discern which direction it came from.

Without wasting any time, the wind blades that had already formed rushed towards the guards.

The guards were also terrified, feeling that the other party had murderous intent towards them and an unpreventable killing intent. Moreover, they were sure that the opponent was a peerless master.

Now they didn’t even know who the other party was, couldn’t figure out their martial arts routines, and had never heard of such a person in the martial arts world?!

Before the guards could finish their thoughts, sudden intense pain came to their necks. Their eyes slowly turned, but where were the people, where were the weapons, why was there nothing? Could it be that the ghosts of the Yu family had come for revenge? Then they lost consciousness.

“Bang”

“Bang”

“Bang”

—

Except for the guard leader who was on her last legs, they all fell down.

The guard leader, seeing this, gritted her teeth in hatred. “We are the royal guards, how dare you kill us?”

Meanwhile, the Yu family’s servants were already stunned, motionless, watching this “ghost killing.”

“Why wouldn’t I dare?” Chen Xin asked lightly.

The soft voice made the guard leader hate her to the extreme. “You…”

As a guard of the empress, everyone had a sense of pride, and she was no exception. However, she was going to perish here today, which made her extremely unwilling.

“Puff”

“Bang”

The guard leader, consumed by anger, spat out a mouthful of blood and finally fell down.

In the end, no one would know who it was!
