These ten people carried large sabers and rode their horses towards Su Yan's carriage. Their faces were filled with contempt.
"Stop the carriage in front!”
The leader pointed and shouted.
This person was called Guo Hao, a Wanderer. He looked in the direction of Su Yan's carriage with a murderous look.
"Phew!"
The horse carriage stopped.
Zhao Yun rode her horse over to protect Su Yan's carriage, her right hand tightly gripping the spear in her hand.
At this moment, Su Yan lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage.
He stood on the shaft of the carriage and looked at the ten burly men on the road in front of him. He narrowed his eyes.
"May I ask why you are blocking my way?”
he asked lightly.
Guo Hao raised his head and looked at Su Yan."You are Su Yan?"
"I am."
"Just in time. I'm here today to avenge Huo Cong.”Guo Hao said loudly.
"Huo Cong? Are you bandits?"
Su Yan looked at them and the corners of his mouth curled up into a smile.
"Bah!"
Guo Hao spat and sneered,""What mountain bandits? We're all righteous and well-known rangers in Youzhou. I'm here to avenge Huo Cong because I'm friends with him.”
"If you obediently kneel on the ground and commit suicide, I will save you the trouble of leaving your corpse intact. But if you insist on resisting, I'll chop you up!”
Su Yan looked at the clothes on their bodies and said with a smile,"I don't think so. You don't know Huo Cong, and you're not here for revenge.”
"You took my second brother's money from the Don't Drive Mansion, and that's why you deliberately ambushed me here to kill me. Am I right?"
"Nonsense!"
Guo Hao's expression changed slightly." We're here for revenge," he said coldly." Don't quibble here!"”
"Humph! You know very well who is the one who is trying to quibble here.”
Su Yan sneered." The horses you ride and the sabers you use are all from Youzhou's elite government troops. If it wasn't for the people from the Don't Drive Manor, where did you get them from?"”
"In this land, other than my stepmother, Madam Xu, and my second brother, Su Ze, I'm afraid that no one else wants me dead.”
Guo Hao's pupils constricted when he heard his words.
He did not expect Su Yan to actually guess it. This had somewhat exceeded his expectations.
He gripped the knife in his hand tightly and said coldly,"Su Yan, so what if you guessed it? You will definitely die today, and no one will be able to escape!”
"Are you that confident that you can kill me?" Su Yan laughed.”
"Where else can you run to?" Guo Hao asked.”
Su Yan was speechless." That's true. Then I'll stand here. If you have the ability, come and kill me.”
He curled his finger at him with a disdainful look.
Guo Hao was furious." Brothers, charge! Kill Su Yan and steal their money!”
He looked at the people behind him and said, then raised his saber and rode forward.
Su Yan turned to look at Zhao Yun and instructed,"Zilong, kill all of them except for the one just now!”
"Here!"
" Understood!" Zhao Yun replied, then patted the back of her horse and spurred it forward.
Although the warhorse he was riding was not a BMW, it was still a good horse and could run very fast.
"Hey!"
The warhorse roared and charged at Guo Hao like a bolt of lightning.
"Traitor, die!"
Zhao Yun raised the spear in her hand. The tip of the spear emitted a cold light as it stabbed towards Guo Hao.
Guo Hao felt a white light flash in front of his eyes. He subconsciously raised his saber to block in front of him and collided with the spear.
"Clang!"
The sound of metal clashing rang out, and the steel saber in Guo Hao's hand was knocked away.
Under the violent impact, he screamed in pain. His body trembled as he was sent flying and fell heavily to the ground.
Blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, and his internal organs were in excruciating pain as if they were on fire. He lay weakly on the ground, losing the strength to fight.
Guo Hao fell to the ground with one move.
Zhao Yun ignored him, spurring her horse forward. She turned into a stream of light and shuttled between the few people.
"Bang bang bang!"
Those people's martial arts were even worse than Guo Hao's. Zhao Yun shot a few times in the air, and blood instantly appeared on those people's bodies. With a bang, they fell off their horses.
Turning his horse around, Zhao Yun returned to Su Yan's side with an indifferent expression.
Guo Hao, who had fallen to the ground, had already been picked up by the rest of the soldiers and brought to Su Yan.
"How is it, Guo Hao? Is there anything else you want to say?" Su Yan smiled faintly.”
Guo Hao remained silent, his expression downcast.
"If you tell me the truth, I can consider sparing your life. Otherwise, I'll send you on your way now.”
Su Yan looked at him and his tone was filled with killing intent.。
Guo Hao's body trembled as he hurriedly crouched in front of Su Yan and begged,"Please spare my life, sir. It's the Bie Jia Estate that gave us money and equipment to kill you here.”
"Who gave you the order?"
"This lowly one doesn't know. Those people are all masked, so this lowly one doesn't recognize them.”
Guo Hao was covered in cold sweat and was extremely afraid.
When Su Yan heard his words, he was already certain that it was the mother and son of the Xu family who did this.
The two of them had colluded and hired assassins to kill him on his way back to prevent him from returning to Ji County.
"My lord, what do we do now?"
Zhao Yun asked.
"Sir, I've already told you the truth. Please be magnanimous and forgive me.”Guo Hao begged.
"Humph! I won't kill you, but others can kill you too.”
Su Yan snorted coldly. Then, he looked at the soldier beside him. The soldier was very sensible and pulled him far away before killing him with a slash.
"Continue to advance, and then contact the broken barracks hidden near Ji County.”
"Here!"
Zhao Yun replied and then instructed a soldier to contact someone.
The convoy continued forward and smoothly entered the territory of Ji County. It was less than half a day's journey from Ji County.
At this time, the soldier who had contacted them had returned. At the same time, he brought along a military officer who was in charge of the broken camp, called Wang Min.
This person's martial arts skills were not bad. He could read and write, knew a little about military formations, and most importantly, he had a calm personality.
He would carry out Su Yan's orders every time. He never asked or spoke much.
"My lord!"
Wang Min rode her horse to Su Yan and said respectfully.
"Hmm, is everyone ready?"
Su Yan asked.
"It has been arranged. Other than the 700 soldiers stationed outside the city, I have also brought 100 people into the county.”
Wang Min said in a deep voice.
"Very good. Follow us into the city. After contacting those hundred people, you can leave the city and act according to the situation.”
Su Yan instructed.
"Here!"
Wang Min agreed and immediately entered the convoy, following Su Yan and the others into Ji County City.
