Chapter 300 You Look Much More Respectable in White
Su Mowan thought that Feng Yue couldn't handle things alone for the time being, and was about to go to Murong Jing's side.
In an instant, fifty or sixty assassins simultaneously raised their knives and slashed at this side.
The Seventh Princess flinched in fright, and Su Mowan quickly moved her behind her, shouting, "Yinshuang! Protect the Seventh Princess!"
Both Yinshuang and Feng Yue carried swords. Yinshuang's swordsmanship was superb, so Su Mowan wasn't too worried.
The guards who were locked in a stalemate saw a large number of assassins heading towards Su Mowan, so they used ruthless tactics. Two of them broke free from the assassins and went to protect Su Mowan.
At the same time, another group of people sprang out from behind the woods, all wearing silver-white armor that shone brightly in the moonlight.
Su Mowan knew instantly who the people were: Snow Shadow Guards!
That means the sun has risen.
At this moment, the two assassins leading the charge were already close to Su Mowan, their broadswords whistling as they slashed at her. Despite Murong Jing's prior warning, Su Mowan couldn't help but intervene.
She can dodge, but once the assassin gets past her, the Seventh Princess will be in danger. It will be very difficult for Yinshuang to deal with so many assassins by herself!
So Su Mowan raised her leg and kicked out with a side kick, sending the knives flying from the hands of the two men charging in front of her.
Two screams rang out immediately.
The two assassins clutched their wrists and cried out in pain, almost unable to stand.
Su Mowan used a lot of force in that kick; the wrists of the two assassins are probably ruined!
The assassins who followed were startled by the imposing force of Su Mowan's horizontal kick. After exchanging glances, the three or four of them simultaneously raised their knives and slashed at her!
Su Mowan dodged two of them with a sidestep, and just as she was about to strike the assassin on the back, two guards arrived and slashed at her with their swords, greatly reducing the pressure on Su Mowan.
In just a few moments, the Snow Shadow Guards had already charged into the midst of the assassins. The chaotic battle scene was dazzling, with silvery-white halos everywhere.
Su Mowan thought to herself, "That's really cool."
After sighing, she turned to look in Murong Jing's direction, and her heart nearly jumped out of her throat at the sight she saw!
Of the fifty or sixty assassins who had just rushed over, only a dozen or so surrounded her, while the remaining forty-odd people all went towards Murong Jing!
Feng Yue's sword was stained with blood, and his face was also splattered with blood, showing how intense the battle was!
Feng Yue might be able to fight ten men alone, but there were too many assassins rushing in and attacking at him all at once, so Feng Yue couldn't use his skills at all.
Fortunately, although Murong Jing was surrounded by assassins, he was safe and sound. When she looked over, as if he wanted to say something, he turned around to face the enemy as soon as he opened his mouth.
Su Mowan was anxious, after all, Murong Jing was fighting while in a wheelchair, which was very taxing on his internal energy, and there were assassins everywhere, so it was easy to get injured if he wasn't careful.
Thinking of this, Su Mowan didn't care about anything else. She picked up a knife from the ground and slashed into the encirclement!
When Su Mowan suddenly appeared, three or four assassins slashed at her. Su Mowan wasn't very skilled with a knife and didn't care about any knife techniques; she just attacked anyone who came at her!
Of course, she used the back of the knife; at this moment, a trace of mercy still remained in her heart.
Seeing that she didn't kill him, the assassins exchanged a glance and then launched an even more ferocious attack, using a reckless fighting style, since they wouldn't die anyway!
After exchanging a few blows, Su Mowan realized that the assassin was exploiting her weakness of not killing her, and her eyes darkened. Seeing that something seemed to be wrong with Murong Jing, Su Mowan hardened her heart and slashed out with her blade.
The assassins didn't expect things to turn out so quickly; by the time they reacted, they were already lying on the ground!
After dealing with the few in front of her, Su Mowan was attacked by several more. Su Mowan showed no mercy and killed them all with a single blow, fighting her way to Murong Jing's side.
Murong Jing carried no weapons, relying instead on his formidable internal energy. With a simple raise of his hand, the two closest assassins found themselves unable to move their hands, which were holding knives!
A look of terror flashed in his eyes.
Murong Jing waved his hand, and the two assassins, along with their knives, were thrown three meters away!
Seeing that he was unharmed, Su Mowan killed one assassin with a swift move and then blocked another for him, kicking the assassin two meters away. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Su Mowan immediately moved to Murong Jing's side, "Are you alright?"
"It's nothing." Murong Jing swept away several knives with a flick of his sleeve, then glanced back at her.
Just then, the sound of horses' hooves came from the distance in the woods, and it sounded like there were more than a hundred of them.
Su Mowan breathed a sigh of relief; it must be Emperor Mo Yao and the others returning.
Before she could even catch her breath, another whooshing sound came from behind her. Su Mowan dodged it with a quick movement and swung her sword horizontally. Only after the sword swept out did Su Mowan feel a little dazed.
It was an arrow! Not a knife!
She ducked to avoid the first few attacks, then remembered Murong Jing behind her and immediately shouted, "Murong Jing, watch out!"
Gritting her teeth, Su Mowan stood up and cursed inwardly, "Why is it always arrows?!" Whenever Murong Jing is attacked, as long as she is present, it's always arrows!
Could it be that she's going to be defeated by arrows again this time?!
Several more arrows came hurtling towards her with a whooshing sound. Su Mowan gathered all her inner strength and swung her knife fiercely, unleashing a powerful gust of wind that caused the incoming arrows to fall to the ground.
Just then, the sound of wind came from behind.
It's the wind from the palm.
Su Mowan turned around and struck out with her palm!
The person who struck was masked, and his eyes were filled with gloom and intense killing intent!
Su Mowan felt the strong wind rushing towards her and dared not be careless. She used some of her strength to meet it head-on.
Just then, Su Mowan suddenly heard a voice: "Mowan, withdraw two parts of your palm force."
It's Su Mobai's voice!
It uses a secret sound transmission technique!
Without the slightest hesitation, Su Mowan withdrew two parts of her internal energy. As a result, she was struck back three or four steps by the opponent's powerful palm strike, feeling her blood surging in her chest.
Before she could even stand properly, she was caught in a cool embrace. Just as Su Mowan was about to turn her head to look, she heard Su Mobai's voice in her ear: "Quickly faint."
"..."
It’s time to test your acting skills!
Su Mowan closed her eyes and collapsed softly, completely embraced by Su Mobai. Just as she was about to ask how long she would be unconscious, she felt Su Mobai nudge the back of her neck, and then she completely lost consciousness.
Su Mobai, carrying the person, looked towards Murong Jing. Just then, Murong Jing also looked over. Their eyes met, and Su Mobai nodded slightly. Carrying Su Mowan, he leaped out of the encirclement and landed beside the already safe Seventh Princess.
When the Seventh Princess suddenly saw Su Mobai appear in front of her, she forgot how to react and just stared blankly at him. Fortunately, when she saw Su Mowan, who was unconscious in Su Mobai's arms, she finally came back to her senses.
"Brother Mo Bai, what happened to my sister-in-law?!"
Su Mobai was taken aback for a moment by the way he was addressed, then said calmly, "It's nothing, I just fainted."
The Seventh Princess was extremely nervous about being so close, but Su Mobai didn't seem like the kind of person who was easy to approach, so she could only stand quietly to the side holding the little rabbit. Then she heard Su Mobai say, "May I borrow the princess's carriage?"
The seventh princess stammered, "Of course! I... I'll take you there!"
Su Mobai arrived before Emperor Moyao and his entourage. Emperor Moyao had just dismounted when the Imperial Guards following behind him immediately joined the hunt for the assassin.
Seeing Su Mobai carrying the person towards the Seventh Princess's carriage, Emperor Moyao called out from afar, "Su Mobai, what happened to my daughter-in-law!"
The shout was so loud that Consort Xiao, Consort Shen, and the officials inside all heard it clearly.
Su Mobai said without turning his head, "Mo Wan is injured. I will take her back to the palace first."
The Seventh Princess, who was leading the way, wondered to herself: Didn't she just say she was fine? How come she's injured now?
The Seventh Princess's carriage wasn't far; Su Mobai arrived in just a few steps. He first carried Su Mowan up, then glanced at the Seventh Princess and asked, "Princess, aren't you coming up?"
The Seventh Princess was eager to go up, but suddenly she heard the sound of approaching hooves behind her, followed by a familiar voice: "Seventh Princess, you should come to me. If there are still assassins on the road, Minister Su won't be able to take care of you."
The Seventh Princess turned to look at Shangguan Qingqi and snorted, "I have my father's Imperial Guards protecting me, why should I rely on you?"
Seeing that Shangguan Qingqi had arrived, Su Mobai was relieved about the Seventh Princess's safety. "Young Master Shangguan is right. You go with him. I'll take Mo Wan back first."
With that, Su Mo waved his hand, and about twenty Snow Shadow Guards appeared around the carriage. "Let's go!"
Watching the carriage disappear into the distance, the Seventh Princess suddenly felt a pang of envy for Su Mowan.
Not only does she have the love of her third brother, but she also has such a wonderful older brother.
Although her third brother treated her very well, it was nothing compared to how Su Mobai treated Su Mowan!
Shangguan Qingqi, his white robes stained with a few drops of blood, sat high on his horse. Seeing that the Seventh Princess's gaze remained fixed on him, he couldn't help but tease her, "What? Lost your soul? Want me to shout a few times for you?"
The Seventh Princess was somewhat embarrassed and annoyed by Shangguan Qingqi's words. She immediately turned around and glared at him, saying, "Mind your own business! Mind your own business!"
After shouting this, the Seventh Princess noticed several bloodstains on Shangguan Qingqi's white clothes under the torchlight, and immediately asked, "You...you're injured?"
Seeing that she was holding a small rabbit, Shangguan Qingqi raised an eyebrow and retorted, "Isn't this meddling in other people's business?"
The Seventh Princess was speechless with anger at his words and was about to turn and leave.
Shangguan Qingqi glanced at the still unresolved battle and thought, why bother arguing with a little girl? What if I anger her and she leaves, giving the assassin an opening?
So Shangguan Qingqi quickly tried to appease her, saying, "Oh, Your Highness, I was wrong. I didn't appreciate your kindness. I was indeed injured."
Upon hearing this, the Seventh Princess stopped, and after a moment's hesitation, managed to ask, "Is it serious? Shouldn't someone bandage it up quickly?"
"It's not serious. There might be more assassins later. His Majesty has ordered me to protect you. Mount your horse."
After Shangguan Qingqi finished speaking, he stretched out one hand.
The Seventh Princess looked at the hand in front of her, then glanced at Shangguan Qingqi and said, "You look much more dignified in white."
