Chapter 926: Unable to Distinguish Anything
ed the clothes back. "Tie Zhu has been locked up for two days! If anything happens to him, how can we explain to Village Head Wang""It's fine, just give me the clothes. Don't you trust that I can prot...Fāng Jǐnxiù frowned tightly and ran back, grabbing his arm.
"What kind of joke is that, leaving you behind and running away myself"
"As I've said before, past grievances are water under the bridge. Whether as friends or for Yun Ni's sake, I wouldn't abandon you."
Zhao Xingzhou was completely stunned. What did she just say
She said, as a friend.
She, she's still willing to consider herself friends with me!
"Don't just stand there, run!"
Zhao Xingzhou struggled to stand up, using all his strength to keep up with Fang Jinshu. He didn't want to slow her down.
Ultimately, they were still one step too late. Five more assassins emerged swiftly from behind them. This time, all of them were clad in black and covered their faces with masks. They acted decisively, launching several poisoned darts at Fang Jinshu from different angles before even getting close.
All of them were deflected by Zhao Xingzhou, who used his own blade to counter.
But this act also drained his last ounce of strength. His legs could no longer support him, so he could only use the knife to prop himself up on the ground, kneeling with one knee.
A large pool of fresh blood spurted from his mouth.
Fang Jinxiu was greatly astonished and turned around to support Zhao Xingzhou.
"How are you"
Zhao Xingzhou shook his head, constantly pushing her away and persuading her, his voice barely a whisper.
"Go quickly."
“These assassins are better than the previous ones, I... I can't do this anymore.”
"Just forget it, let's go."
Fan Jinshu raised her sleeve arrow, aiming at the surroundings. Now that she wanted to leave, it was too late.
She heard footsteps all around them, they were surrounded.
"Zhao Xingzhou, I'm sorry."
"I'm also sorry, Yun Ni. I shouldn't have made you wait outside."
"When I was in the dental practice, I should have pretended not to know you. It's my fault that you got dragged into this."
These assassins came for their family. The Zhao siblings were all caught in the crossfire. If she hadn't brought Zhao Xingzhou back to the manor, he could have lived at least a few more years.
At this time, Zhao Xingzhou smiled.
"Hearing you say that, I have no regrets even in death."
Behind Fang Jinxiu, a killer had silently approached at some point. He suddenly lunged with his sword, Zhao Xingzhou's pupils widened, he shielded Fang Jinxiu with one hand, shifting himself and her to the opposite direction.
He wanted to use his body to shield her from the sword, this would be the last time he protected her in his life.
"No!" Fang Jinxiu reacted and reached out to pull Zhao Xingzhou back, but everything happened too quickly. The assassin's sword was about to pierce Zhao Xingzhou's chest.
The next second, he was sent flying by a short dagger.
Zhao Xingzhou had been given a second chance at life.
He's actually still alive!
Who is it Who threw the dagger
Fang Jinxiu hurriedly looked around, thinking that Fu Ming and Fu Shangyuan's reinforcements had arrived.
Zhuge Yun appeared first, making a grand entrance right away.
"Where did you come from, you vermin Hiding in the shadows and daring to harm my esteemed General's wife! Just watch as I chop you into meat paste!"
Several assassins only wanted to quickly and decisively deal with their target. However, Zhao Yun's relentless fighting style proved too formidable. They not only couldn't break free but also had no chance to escape.
Fang Jinxiu stood rooted to the spot. She didn't recognize the young man fighting alongside the killer. Was he Fu Shangyuan's subordinate
Just then, Zong Yu emerged from the shadows, picked up the short knife on the ground and threw it in the other direction with precision, lodging it in the chest of a killer who was trying to sneak attack Zhao Yun, instantly killing him.
Finally, a sliver of pale light appeared on the horizon as sunlight poured from the edge of the world, dispelling the darkness.
Fang Jinxiu also thoroughly saw Zong Yu's face, but within a few steps distance, the two stood still, neither taking the initiative to take a step forward, looking at each other from afar.
When Zhao Xingzhou first saw Zong Yu, he couldn't quite believe it. After so many years, he had actually survived the battlefield and returned.
Only the sound of Zhao Yun and the assassins fighting could be heard in the courtyard at this time. The other three people were as motionless as if they had been acupuncture-pointed.
Soon the assassins were no match for Zhao Yun, one was captured and forced to commit suicide, while the other was killed by Zhao Yun with a slash of his sword.
After the fighting subsided, Zhao Xingzhou's gaze flitted back and forth between Zong Yu and Fang Jinshi, his expression complex. Finally, he broke the silence.
"Brother Zong has finally returned."
Zhao Xingzhou's words finally brought Fang Jinxiu back to her senses.
She immediately averted her gaze, as if she didn't recognize the person in front of her at all. She said in a calm voice.
"This time it should be completely done, you're too hurt, stay put and don't move, I'll go call mother and them."
Fang Jinshu finished speaking and turned her head to walk towards the cellar, not even glancing at Zongyu's way.
Zhao Yun, after taking care of the assassins, was about to greet Fang Jinxiu, but he was unexpectedly ignored.
It wasn't that Fang Jinshi intentionally ignored Zhao Yun. She appeared calm on the surface, but from the moment Zong Yu appeared, her brain had been in utter chaos.
I can't tell the difference between anything.nd a few maidservants were left at home, seeing her bring back such a large tiger would surely scare them to death.Let them mentally prepare in advance.When Zong Yu heard this, he went straight in and...
