Just as the blade was about to touch her, it was suddenly bounced away by an invisible barrier.

The assassins were all frightened by this incredible scene and forgot to continue attacking.

Imi herself was stunned.

She didn't understand what happened just now?

Why did the assassin's knife suddenly change direction in mid-air?

The atmosphere condensed in this moment.

Before Imi could figure out the reason, she was already urging her to survive and run wildly!

The assassins suddenly came to their senses and immediately picked up their swords to chase after them.

Both sides pursue life and death on the quiet and dark streets.

Imi ran and shouted for help.

However, she spoke Qiandao dialect, and even if the people living nearby heard it, they couldn't understand what she was calling.

Imi ran wildly with all her energy, but her speed was still not as fast as that of the vicious assassins.

She clearly felt the sound of footsteps behind her getting closer and closer. The blade of life-seeking from hell made her heart beat wildly, fear climbed to the extreme, and in the end she was only despair and helplessness.

She didn't want to die, and she didn't want to die in a foreign country in such a confused way.

Who will save her?

At this moment, a hand with distinct joints suddenly stretched out from the side, grabbed Imi's arm and dragged it hard!

Caught off guard, Imi was dragged into the dark alley next to her.

When she came to her senses, she found herself being pulled into a yard gate. With the hazy night, she could barely see clearly the person who was holding her. She was a tall, black-clad boy.

This person is Chu Jian!

He quietly closed the yard door.

Seeing that Imi was about to speak, he immediately reached out to cover her mouth and blocked all her voice back.

The girl's warm breath sprayed in his palm, making him feel a little uncomfortable.

But soon he threw this discomfort behind his mind.

Because there was a burst of rapid footsteps outside the courtyard gate.

It was the assassins who caught up!

Imei was so scared that she didn't dare to move anymore, letting the boy's hand cover his lips.

She was frozen in place, her hands and feet were cold, and her dark brown pupils trembled slightly from fear, and fine beads of sweat emerged from her forehead.

Through the thin courtyard gate, she could clearly hear the sounds outside.

The group of assassins outside carefully searched the entire alley, but found no trace of the third princess.

In a frustration, someone couldn't help asking.

"We obviously saw her running into here, why did we disappear?"

Another person continued: "There are several families in this alley. Maybe the third princess is hiding in someone else's house. Why don't we search all these families?"

When Yimi heard this, she was so scared that her breathing almost stopped.

She wanted to remind the boy in front of her to change her hiding place before the assassins came.

But her lips were tightly covered and she couldn't make any sound.

She didn't dare to struggle too hard, for fear of making a sound that alarmed the group of vicious assassins outside, so she could only raise her hand and pull the boy's sleeve, signaling him to let go.

However, Chu Jian ignored her.

He remained motionless and ignored what the assassins outside said.

It was not until the assassins really began to search nearby houses one by one that Chu Jian felt a little nervous.

He stared at the closed courtyard gate, and at the same time raised his other hand and placed it on the hilt of the sword around his waist, ready to draw his sword to meet the enemy at any time.

The assassins began searching from the innermost family.

They forced themselves to break through the gate of the courtyard and rushed in to see that the courtyard was empty and there was no one living inside.

After searching quickly, they did not see the third princess's traces and immediately moved to the next house.

This family lives in a family of four.

The male owner tried to resist and was beaten unconscious by the assassins. His wife was so scared that she screamed, and the two children cried in a mess.

These sounds are next door, only a wall away from where Imi and Chu Jian are.

Chu Jian frowned.

He let go of Imi and whispered to her.

"I'll pull away those assassins, and you can take the opportunity to escape."

Yi Mei couldn't understand Dasheng's words, and Chu Jian's words fell into her ears, which was no different from Tianshu.

She looked at Chu Jian pulling out his sword with a blank look on her face.

Chu Jian planned to climb over the wall to save people.

He could not let the assassins hurt innocent people.

Yimi quickly grabbed his sleeve and asked in a thin voice as thin as a mosquito.

"Where are you going?"

Chu Jian looked down at her.

She looked up at him, too.

The two of them looked at each other and stared at each other with big eyes.

Neither of them understands what the other is saying.

Chu Jian then remembered that there was a language barrier between him and the third princess.

What should I do?

The cries in the yard next door were getting louder and louder.

Chu Jian couldn't bear it anymore.

He shook Yimi's hand away and saved the person first!

Just as he used his light skills to jump up to the courtyard wall, a rapid sound of horse hooves came from afar.

Chu Jian stood on the courtyard wall and looked in the sound and saw a group of officers and soldiers riding horses and rushing towards this side!

The team of officers and soldiers were all carrying weapons and holding torches in their hands. It was estimated that there were more than 20 people, which was more than enough to deal with these assassins.

Chu Jian immediately gave up his plan to save people.

He squatted down and hid his body in the darkness.

The assassin in charge of wind discovered the group of officers and soldiers and immediately shouted at the accomplices in the yard.

"The officers and soldiers are here! Retreat quickly!"

The assassins immediately stopped rummaging through boxes and ran out in a hurry.

When they ran to the alley, they happened to run into the group of aggressive officers and soldiers face to face.

Both sides started fighting without saying a word.

Seventeen assassins finally ran away, and the remaining fifteen were decided to lose, so they simply ended their lives.

A chaotic battle came to an end.

The family of four next door was sent to the clinic by the officers and soldiers.

Chu Jian jumped off the courtyard wall and booed Yimei.

Imi pursed her lips and didn't move.

Wait until all the sounds outside disappear.

Chu Jian then pushed open the gate of the courtyard.

He leaned out and looked out, the box was quiet and empty.

Chu Jian turned around and said to Yi Mei.

"let's go."

Imi looked at him blankly.

Chu Jian scratched his head, then gestured with both hands, telling her that it was time to leave.

Imei guessed and understood what he meant.

The two left the alley in the dark and headed straight for the Ying Prince's Mansion.

At night, Luo Yechen was sleeping soundly in his arms while holding his wife, but suddenly he was woken up and immediately became angry.

He shouted at the door: "No matter who they are, let them get out! Don't disturb my good dream!"

The butler stood outside the door and continued with a thorn in his mouth.

"Prince, the person who came was Yulinwei. He said he came by the order of the Imperial Concubine. If there is something important, please help me with the princess."
