Chapter 382 - Chapter 382 Not even two people to collect the bodies

Chapter 382: Not even two people to collect the bodies Chapter 382: Not even two people to collect the bodies Disturbed by the commotion, Ye Jiu suddenly found herself wide awake.

However, not wanting to continue an awkward conversation with Sikong Mo, she had no choice but to pretend to be asleep.

Unbeknownst to her, whether she was really asleep or just pretending, how could Sikong Mo not feel it!

Initially, it was just an act, but as drowsiness overtook her, she eventually fell asleep for real.

The original bumpy feeling suddenly smoothed out, and Ye Jiu, confused, opened her eyes only to find that everyone had stopped.

“What happened?” Ye Jiu asked, confused.

Once her eyes were fully opened, she realized they were in the midst of a small bamboo forest path.

This scene seemed somehow familiar.

Combining this with the grave expressions on the faces of Sikong Mo and his party, Ye Jiu could only describe her feelings with two big expletives internally.

This scene, wasn’t it just like those assassination scenes often depicted in TV dramas?

Upon further reflection, the person being targeted for assassination was sitting right behind her.

All Ye Jiu had were guesses, but Sikong Mo behind her confirmed her suspicions and even offered comforting words, “There are assassins, don’t be scared, I will protect you, you won’t get hurt.”

Ye Jiu: “…”

There’s a saying that a man’s words are sometimes just to be heard; whoever takes them seriously ends up losing!

Moreover, in the face of life and death, such promises are worth nothing at all.

Just as she thought this, many figures in black suddenly burst out of the bamboo on both sides of the path, all wielding bows and pulling them taut, aiming directly at Sikong Mo in the middle. “The great Prince Sikong is nothing special after all. Just surrender now, and I might spare you all.”

The villain dies by talking too much, Ye Jiu thought to herself as she watched the leader of the men in black.

Then, with a flick of his wrist, Sikong Mo sent a hidden weapon flying towards the leader of the men in black, who had no chance to defend himself. The weapon struck him right between the eyebrows, and his eyes widened in unwilling death as he fell to the ground.

Seeing their leader killed, the dozens of men in black let loose their arrows, sending the cold gleaming shafts flying towards the center.

Sikong Mo didn’t even move his hands, still sitting calmly on horseback with Ye Jiu in his arms, but the guards by his side drew their long swords simultaneously.

The sound of weapons clashing rang out, and the sky full of arrows fell to the ground, some even snapping in two, completely rendered useless.

Meanwhile, the guards on Sikong Mo’s side did not cease their advance, bunkering down through the arrows and advancing, quickly leaving dozens of the bodies of the men in black silently sprawled on the ground.

However, Sikong Mo’s people had very few injuries.

It was hard to say whether the enemy was too weak or Sikong Mo’s people were too skilled.

The bloody scene had already caused Ye Wenzheng’s legs to tremble.

Ye Jiu wasn’t much better off, but having already witnessed such carnage and being in Sikong Mo’s arms for support, she didn’t appear as helpless as Ye Wenzheng.

Si Nan tossed aside a few bodies with his long sword, retrieving a token from the leader of the black-clothed men, clenching it in his hand as he walked towards Sikong Mo, “Prince, it was the Second Prince’s men.”

Sikong Mo didn’t even take the token; without a single cold glance to the dead men in black, he directly commanded, “Since they are the Second Prince’s men, they shouldn’t just die out here unattended. This prince will show some charity…”

The words of Sikong Mo left Ye Jiu and Ye Wenzheng stunned; then Sikong Mo already spurred his horse forward with Ye Jiu.

Left behind, Ye Wenzheng encountered such a bloody scene for the first time in his life.
