It would take about ten days to get from Luochuan City to the Imperial Capital. During this time, Chu Wuyou had been sitting in the carriage. She rarely came out or pulled open the curtain of the carriage to take a look at the scenery.
"Miss, there's a situation!" At this moment, Liu Tiao suddenly pulled open the curtain of the carriage with a solemn expression.
"What's wrong?" Chu Wu You asked doubtfully, the Qing Huan on her wrist also gradually became restless. She released her wrist and landed in the carriage, her black eyes flashing with the bloodthirsty light unique to wild beasts.
"Someone seems to be following us." Liu Tiao said as she drew her sword from her waist."In a while, if the brothers outside can't stop them, this subordinate will take the princess and escape.”
This place was not too far from the Imperial City. If they were lucky, they could even bump into the soldiers in charge of guarding the city. Then, they would really be out of danger.
"Are there many people?" Chu Wu You asked softly after a moment of silence.
"Yes, and it's very likely that he's a death warrior.”Liu Tiao's expression became more and more serious. Suddenly, he pulled out the sword in his hand and slashed at Chu Wu You's side.
Clang! It was the sound of metal clashing together. Then, a dart fell into the carriage. The pitch-black dart did not have a trace of light, and it looked a little strange.
Chu Wu You frowned and lowered her head to take a look. Then, her expression changed: "Not good! This dart was poisonous! Tell everyone to be careful!"
Liu Tiao's expression also changed. They hated the person who poisoned the weapon the most. They wanted to run out of the carriage to inform the people outside, but they heard a chaotic sound of fighting.
It seemed that the dart was used to kill Chu Wu You. He had wanted to kill Chu Wu You first to mess up their formation, then kill them.
"Miss, quickly follow me out of here." Knowing that she could not delay any longer, Liu Tiao immediately went forward and carried Chu Wu You out of the carriage.
Qing Huan landed on Chu Wu You's shoulder and knocked down the darts that flew at her from time to time.
Carrying Chu Wu You on her back, Liu Tiao tapped her toes lightly and jumped far away. There seemed to be pursuers following behind her. Chu Wu You turned around and could only see their black clothes. Even their faces were covered by black cloth.
"Dammit!" Obviously, Liu Tiao had also noticed the pursuers behind her and could not help but speed up again.
He was carrying Chu Wu You on his back now, so it was not suitable for him to fight with them. He could only run for his life.
The further she ran, the colder Liu Tiao's heart became.
No matter how fast he sped up, the four men in black behind him were gradually catching up to him. Helpless, Liu Tiao could only put Chu Wu You down: "Miss, run quickly. I'll stop them.”
"You?" As if they had heard the biggest joke, the men in black who were chasing them also stopped and looked at him as if they were looking at an ant.
Liu Tiao didn't say anything. She silently clenched the sword in her hand.
Then, he turned around and looked at Chu Wu You, indicating for her to run.
At this moment, Qing Huan, who had been on Chu Wu You's shoulder, jumped down. Her body continued to grow bigger. While everyone was shocked, she grabbed Chu Wu You and ran towards the Imperial City.
The man in black who had spoken earlier looked at Qing Huan who was running away with Chu Wuyou. A trace of greed flashed in his eyes. How could he give such a good spiritual item to a dying person? Just as he was about to chase after her, Liu Tiao blocked his way.
The sword in her hand let out a low hum. Liu Tiao looked at the man in black coldly."With me here, don't even think about going over!”
Hearing this, the four men in black laughed strangely in unison. The man in black who spoke earlier continued,"Since you want to die so much, I'll fulfill your wish.”
Then, dozens of darts flew out from his sleeves, piercing through the air and shooting towards Liu Tiao.
Liu Tiao's expression turned serious. He nimbly drew out a few sword flowers and kept changing his pace. His figure actually became blurry and he dodged the dart's attack.
"Eh?" The man in black looked at Liu Tiao strangely, and then his eyes flashed with extreme greed."Brat, I've really underestimated you. Hand over the cultivation method of your footwork and I'll spare your life.”
"Dream on!" Liu Tiao coldly spat out two words and then stabbed at the black-clothed man.
After easily dodging Liu Tiao's attack, the man in black smiled contemptuously."Other than that mysterious footwork of yours, you're nothing but trash. It's still too early for you to kill me.”
After saying that, he pulled out the long sword at his waist and cut off Liu Tiao's right arm.
"Hand over the cultivation technique and I'll spare your life.”Shaking off the blood on the sword, the man in black looked at him arrogantly.
"The cultivation technique is here.”Liu Tiao spat out a mouthful of blood, and the corners of her mouth curled up in a strange smile.
"Hundred Miles of Formless, turn me into one." After a loud bang, Liu Tiao was blown into minced meat.
As for the four men in black who had surrounded him, other than the one who had spoken, the rest were all dead.
"Tsk, his internal strength actually reversed and he self-destructed.”The man in black coughed lightly as he wiped the blood off the corner of his mouth.
He raised his head and looked in the direction where Chu Wu You had fled. She was nowhere to be seen.
I'll let her off this time. Next time I meet her, I'll definitely take her spirit beast!
Knowing that he might not even be able to defeat Chu Wuyou's spirit beast in his current state, the man in black could only give up.
Qing Huan, who was carrying Chu Wu You, seemed to feel that the pressure behind her was gone. She gradually slowed down. She turned around to see how Chu Wu You was doing. She frowned and her expression was a little ugly.
"Ssss." Qing Huan stuck out her snake tongue and looked at her in confusion.
"It's fine. I just feel that the voice of that man in black is a little familiar.”Chu Wu You said in a low voice. If it was familiar, then there was a high chance that it was someone sent from the Imperial City. It seemed that the news of her return had already spread like wildfire.
How many people were sent to monitor her?
Her royal brothers and sisters…
Seeing that Chu Wu You was fine, Qing Huan turned her head back and focused on the journey. Chu Wu You's brows gradually relaxed and a strange smile appeared on her lips, making people shudder.
Since he wanted to play, then he would play with his royal brothers and sisters.
It was true that she was a military doctor, but she was also the ninth princess of Beiming, the emperor's favorite princess. Kindness didn't mean she would be bullied by others. Moreover, she still needed to protect her fourth brother. Because of Lige, Chu Tuanyan probably had no mood to deal with these undercurrents.
Not long after, Qing Huan stopped and turned back into a small snake, wrapping around Chu Wuyou's wrist. Chu Wu You regained her senses and raised her head to look ahead. She could already see the shadow of the Imperial City.#
