It was evening, and the sky was going to darken soon.
"Rumble…"
The gate of Antler Pass closed with a heavy rumble, just as the last batch of citizens entered the city.
"We have successfully arrived at Antler Pass."
This group of people who had suddenly appeared seemed unrelated, but in reality, they maintained a distance from each other and formed a defensive formation.
Although they didn't look like much, they were the Li family's men of sacrifice sent by Li Yuan.
The hundred of them had entered the antler pass several times, so there wouldn't be any commotion or suspicion.
"Begin the operation…"
Following the hoarse figure of the leader, the group of death warriors quickly disappeared from the street.
At this moment, Zhangsun Wugou had just returned from the Recruitment Hall. She took off her black veil and bamboo hat and stretched her shoulders.
"Ta…Step..."
Light footsteps sounded. She was not a martial artist after all, so she naturally could not detect anything.
"Someone broke in?"
As for Lin Changye, who was in the other room, his eyes suddenly focused. He had obviously heard something.
"Someone went to Wugou?"
From the distance of the footsteps, he quickly determined that they were heading straight for Wugou's boudoir.
He quietly stood up, gripped the Overlord Halberd, and slowly left the bedroom.
"I still feel a little tired after sitting for a long time.”
Zhangsun Wugou stretched his tender neck, thinking that it was time to return to his boudoir.
"Miss Zhangsun."
A voice suddenly rang out. Zhangsun Wugou instantly felt a chill run down his spine as he suddenly turned around.
After all, this voice was not Long Night. If it was not him, then who would dare to trespass here?
He turned around and saw several people in night clothes quietly barging in.
After entering this place, about ten people lined up and bowed to Zhangsun Wugou.
"Miss Zhangsun, there's no need to panic. We're here under the orders of the Duke to save you.”
Sensing Zhangsun Wugou's panic, the leader continued.
"The Li family?"
Zhangsun Wugou was stunned for a moment. At the same time, she also reacted. This group of people could come to Marquis Zhou's residence silently, so they must be the Li family's loyal men of sacrifice.
“………”
The surroundings fell into silence. Zhangsun Wugou frowned, thinking about something.
"The Li Clan has sent people to snatch Zhangsun Wugou back. Then, what will you choose?”
Lin Changye, who had arrived long ago but had yet to show himself outside the house, watched everything unfold expressionlessly.
That's right, he wanted to see how Zhangsun Wugou would choose and what his true thoughts were. It wouldn't be too late to make a move then.
Of course, if he chose to leave with this group of people, it would mean that what he had done before was fake. He would definitely not show mercy.
"No need. I'm determined to stay here.”
After a long silence, Zhangsun Wugou spoke.
As she said this, countless images of Lin Changye and the many days she had spent living in Antler Pass appeared in her mind.
Moreover, although the two of them did not have any name, they lived together like this. She could no longer explain this relationship.
Perhaps this was not a strange thing in Lin Changye's previous life, and the unmarried women of this era were undoubtedly the most concerned about this matter.
"What?"
The leader of the men of sacrifice cried out in surprise. He did not expect the other party to reject him directly. If he brought them away at this time, he would not alert the enemy at all.
This meant that the mission could be easily completed. He did not expect that the person whom the Duke had designated to rescue would refuse to leave.
"Could it be that you're in cahoots with Lin Changye?”
At this moment, the dare-to-die warrior's words became impolite.
“………”
Zhangsun Wugou didn't say anything else. However, his beautiful eyes coldly stared at the leader of the men of sacrifice.
"Wugou, no, Guanyin maid…"
At this point, Lin Changye, who was hiding in the dark, lost his coldness and became exceptionally gentle.
The girl's actions and words were enough to prove what she was thinking and which side she was on.
"In that case, forgive me for my rudeness.”
The leader of the men of sacrifice said coldly.
It was necessary to take the other party away. Since they were unwilling to cooperate, they could only use brute force.
"Presumptuous! Do you know where this is?”
Facing the person who was prepared to make a move, Zhangsun Wugou, who had seen too much blood in Taiyuan, shouted coldly.
"Go, capture her."
The leader of the men of sacrifice ignored the cold shout and directly gave the order.
"To barge into Marquis Zhou's residence at night, how bold.”
A loud shout was heard as a clear murderous aura spread out.
"Bang…"
In an instant, a figure charged in. The leader of the men in black widened his eyes and a bloody wound appeared on his neck.
"Kacha…"
With a crisp sound, the head of the man in black suddenly fell off, and blood splattered everywhere.
"Hualala…"
As expected of the Li family's men of sacrifice. They were still calm and composed as they surrounded the attacking black shadows.
The black shadow that appeared was Lin Changye. He held the long Overlord Halberd in his hand, and the coldness in his eyes grew stronger.
"Attack together and capture the remaining members of the Lin family alive.”
Seeing that it was the remaining members of the Lin family, the Li family's men of sacrifice shouted and immediately attacked.
"Is that so…"
Lin Zhangsun held Zhangsun Wugou in one hand and swung the halberd in his hand. Immediately, the sound of sharp blades piercing into his body began to ring out continuously.
"Ah!"
In just a few moments, dozens of Li family warriors let out miserable screams. Their heads fell off or were cut in half.
In an instant, the clean ground was covered in blood, and cold corpses fell to the ground one after another.
"Long Night…"
Zhangsun Wugou didn't pay attention to the fight. She raised her head and quietly watched Lin Changye's face, the ripples in her eyes growing emotional.
"Drip, drip, drip!"
Blood dripped down from the tip of the halberd. In the blink of an eye, hundreds of Li family warriors were killed on the spot.
"Guanyin Maid, you're safe now."
Lin Changye was still standing upright. He followed his gaze and saw the beautiful woman in his arms.
"I…"
As their eyes met, the surroundings suddenly became silent, and two blushes appeared on her fair face.
At this moment, Zhangsun Wugou opened his fragrant lips and was about to say something, but nothing came out of his mouth.
"Guanyin maid!"
Unknowingly, Lin Changye had kissed her on the lips, and this action alone represented his thoughts.
"Brother Ye!"
Zhangsun Wugou, who did not push her away or resist, only had time to call out softly. At this moment, she finally understood her feelings.
"Guanyin maid, when I take over the entire Jizhou and have a certain status, I will definitely marry you.”
After the kiss, Lin Changye spoke gently to the lovely girl in his arms with a touch of warmth.
Brother Ye, I'll listen to you."
Zhangsun Wugou responded softly. The heat on his face quickly spread to his ears.
These words were equivalent to a promise that from now on, she would definitely be the main wife. Zhangsun Wugou felt as if his heart had been smeared with honey.
“………”
Gradually, the two figures overlapped with each other. The relationship between Lin Changye and Zhangsun Wugou had completely warmed up at this moment.
If Li Shiming knew that the death warrior sent had actually promoted their relationship, he wondered what kind of wonderful expression he would have.
