Chapter 804: The wound on the assassin's shoulder

“Chu Xifeng, divide the people into two paths. Hurry and take esteemed wangfei away from here!” Gu Beiyue wasn’t sure if the dark-robed assassin was aiming for him or Han Yunxi, but under these circumstances, she was in more danger! Whether he was the white-robed gentleman or Doctor Gu, he wanted Han Yunxi to be safe and sound.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Beiyue started running in a different direction. At the same time, the assassins rushed forward for the kill, dividing up the forces of their defensive guards. Chu Xifeng felt his heart jolt when the dark-robed assassin looked at them. He pulled Han Yunxi away and ordered a few shadow guards to back them up as they retreated. With insufficent hands, Gu Beiyue was left to Xu Donglin alone to guard. The two groups went in different directions, so the dark-robed assassin headed without hesitation after Gu Beiyue.

Lil Thing reacted lightning fast and leaped off of Han Yunxi to bolt after the group. Then he jumped onto the dark-robed assassin’s body and started biting him like mad. Unfortunately, Lil Thing had been injured too severely on Celestial Mountain to recover so soon. All it could do was bite him now! It bit through the man’s clothes and into his flesh, tasting fresh blood on its tongue. The flavor made it give a start and freeze!

The dark-robed man slapped Lil Thing off his body, where it fell head-first against the ground. It stared at the dark-robed man’s retreating form blankly until it finally recovered its senses. It chased after him again, but this time it didn’t dare to touch the dark-robed man. Instead, it made Gu Beiyue its new goal.

“His target is Gu Beiyue! Chu Xifeng, all of you hurry over there, quick!” Han Yunxi was almost insane. She had shot a few poisoned needles, but they were all useless.

Instead of obeying, Chu Xifeng tried to force Han Yunxi to leave. Furious, she simply crouched on the ground to make him stop. “Chu Xifeng, I’m ordering you to save him!”

The dark-robed assassin wasn’t after her, but Gu Beiyue! She could tell that Gu Beiyue’s shadow arts weren’t as powerful as before. Otherwise, he would have taken her and fled long ago. In the Skypit, she had witnessed the true strength of his skills.

“Esteemed wangfei, no one can be certain that his target is only Gu Beiyue. We don’t have enough men right now, so you have to leave first. Once you’re safe, this subordinate can come back to support him right away. The distress signal was already fired, so the reinforcements will come soon,” Chu Xifeng coaxed urgently.

“I’m ordering to go over there now!” Han Yunxi raged.

For an expert like that dark-robed man, killing Gu Beiyue and Xu Donglin was only a matter of minutes. By the time the reinforcements arrived, they’d just be picking up the corpses. Chu Xifeng had the best martial arts of all the shadow guards, so if he went to save them, he might be able to hold out until backup came. While he was still hesitating, Han Yunxi rose to her feet and grabbed him by the collar.

“If anything happens to Gu Beiyue, this wangfei won’t forgive you!”

“Esteemed wangfei....” Chu Xifeng was still hesitant.

His Highness Duke of Qin had many tasks for him, but the most important one had come after the incident with Carefree City. He was to stay by Han Yunxi’s side and protect her at all times. They were even going ot send her away tonight, so he couldn’t allow her to fall into any more danger. She had wanted to stay at the Poison Sect overnight, but he’d finally convinced her to leave. They had saw the distress flare on the way back before running into Gu Beiyue. If it wasn’t simply a stroke of luck, he would have never let esteemed wangfei witness the scene.

While Chu Xifeng was wavring, Xu Donglin had already been knocked aside by sword qi nearby. He fell heavily to the ground and spat out a mouthful of blood. When he tried to stand up, he lost energy after a few times and fainted dead away.

Now it was only Gu Beiyue himself against the dark-robed assassin!
