Chapter 304: A Talisman Fixes Many People

The man closed his eyes.

In his heart, he silently prayed that she had never done anything bad in her life. If there were immortals, please show your spirit and save her and her daughter!

But the pain did not come as expected.

Instead, he heard something falling.

A few drops of warm liquid splashed on his hands.

Opening his eyes, he saw a young man in narrow-sleeved armor standing in front of him. In his hand, a sharp sword swiftly cut down the beggars who had rushed up.

It turned out that the sound just now was the noise of heads rolling.

Qing Feng furrowed his brows and ordered a Black Armor Guard, "Take this father and daughter to a safe place."

The Black Armor Guard lifted the little girl with one hand and pulled up the man with the other.

The man’s legs were still a bit weak, and he couldn’t say a word, just subconsciously followed the Black Armor Guard away.

Qing Feng didn’t know why the beggars went mad and started biting people, but from the sounds, there seemed to be quite a few mad beggars.

He immediately ordered three Black Armor Guards behind him to dispatch people to the palace, the prince’s mansion, and the surveillance institute.

With such chaos in the capital, the soldiers guarding the city were also in a panic and had not yet lit the beacon to inform the main camp.

Qing Feng ascended the city wall, displaying his token, urging them to quickly light the beacon.

Standing on the city wall, he could see several streets clearly, making his scalp tingle.

It wasn’t just the beggars; many poor people had gone mad too. The streets were bloody, filled with continuous screams.

Qing Feng leaped down to rescue the people. He found that stabbing these mad beggars and poor people didn’t work; their heads had to be cut off.

At this moment, he encountered Zhi Mi and Chu Yang.

Qing Feng wasn’t surprised that they came out to help.

Zhi Mi used immobilization talismans to restrain the mad beggars and poor people. If Zhi Mi couldn’t handle it, Chu Yang assisted beside him.

Zhi Mi was exhausted and panting heavily. Seeing several heads rolling down behind Qing Feng, she became angry and anxious, "Big Brother Qing Feng, why are you so ruthless!"

"What else could I do? If I didn’t cut off their heads, more people would suffer." Qing Feng felt indifferent.

"Qing Feng Guard is right. At this moment, we shouldn’t be worried about this," Chu Yang nodded in agreement.

Seeing his calm demeanor, Qing Feng said, "Fourth Young Master, you do have courage."

Looking at the bloody street, it was as if it was a battlefield.

Practicing martial arts at home was different from being on the battlefield. He had seen many young sons of soldiers fainting in the bloody battlefield.

Chu Yang was somewhat unhappy and said, "I am a member of the Chu family’s sons; I cannot be cowardly."

Qing Feng sighed and thought that the An Yang Marquis had raised several good sons, then said, "Zhi Mi Little Master, looking at you like this, you haven’t used many immobilization talismans."

Zhi Mi pouted, wiped the sweat from her forehead, "It’s because my skills are too weak."

Chu Yang said, "Zhi Mi Little Master, you mustn’t say that. How many talismans have you used along the way, how many people have you saved?"

"If Sister Master were here, she could immobilize many people with just one talisman," Zhi Mi still felt that she was too weak.

Qing Feng slapped his head, "I’m such a fool, I have a messaging talisman!"

He quickly took out the messaging talisman, focused on Nanli’s name, and saw the red light of the talisman dimmed. He hurriedly said, "Princess, there’s trouble in Capital!"

Unfortunately, the messaging talisman had been soaked the previous night, so the transmission quality declined: "Wha... what? Who are you?"

Qing Feng wanted to say more, but the messaging talisman seemed to have reached its limit and burst into flames, instantly turning to ashes.

"..." Qing Feng’s mouth twitched.

Princess, your messaging talisman quality isn’t very good.

While the three were talking, more civilians were chased by the mad beggars.

Zhi Mi hurriedly said, "Don’t move, I’ll handle this!"

Fortunately, he had done a lot of homework on drawing immobilization talismans beforehand, otherwise, he wouldn’t have enough. However, when he used the three talismans, only one stuck, and the other two floated down to the ground.

Zhi Mi was greatly alarmed; his skills were insufficient!

He wanted to rush forward to pick up the two fallen talismans, but the remaining two beggars had already pounced on one person, mouths open, ready to bite their neck.

Qing Feng’s face turned cold; it was already too late for him to draw his sword.

On the other hand, Chu Yang moved like a ghostly shadow. He kicked down one beggar, then swiftly turned and deftly dislocated the jaw of another beggar.

"Good skills!" Qing Feng exclaimed involuntarily, his eyes filled with admiration.

However, at that moment, a melodious yet piercing sound rang out. Before they could cover their ears, the sound vanished.

"What was that sound?" Chu Yang felt a bit of pain in his eardrums.

Neither Zhi Mi nor Qing Feng could provide an answer.

But Qing Feng’s face instantly changed color because he heard a dense and numerous sound of footsteps!

Sure enough, he saw beggars and poor people attacking from every street and alley, their eyes gleaming like wild beasts spotting prey.

Those few civilians thought they had escaped, barely catching their breath, but now they saw so many beggars and poor people rushing towards them, nearly losing their breath and fainting on the spot.

"What... what’s going on?!" Zhi Mi exclaimed in shock.

Even though he had enough immobilization talismans, he didn’t have enough power, so the talismans couldn’t be effectively activated.

"Zhi Mi Little Master, it looks like you’ll have to use these immobilization talismans up close," Chu Yang said solemnly, tightening his grip on his sword.

Qing Feng said, "Fourth Young Master, quickly take Zhi Mi to the rooftop. If something happens to you, how can I explain to the princess?"

"As a Chu family son, I cannot abandon the people and escape!" Chu Yang said firmly, already prepared to risk his life.

The civilians were surprised that this Marquis’ son would risk his life to protect them, tears welling up in their eyes, deeply moved and unable to speak.

Zhi Mi added, "That’s right, if I run away, my master will also blame me!"

Qing Feng gritted his teeth and could only say, "There are fewer people on that street; we should be able to make a bloody path through!"

Chu Yang understood his meaning and immediately grabbed the civilians, urging them to follow Qing Feng closely and charge forward.

He remained at the rear.

However, one girl frowned lightly, choking back tears, "I... I sprained my foot."

The other civilians didn’t know her and said anxiously, "That’s tough luck for you, miss. Sir, let’s hurry!"

But Chu Yang didn’t hesitate, "Zhi Mi Little Master, take them and go first."

With that said, he moved to lift the girl onto his back.

Her pale face flushed slightly, her eyes that had been dull suddenly brightening.

She pursed her lips and said, "Actually... you don’t need to save me."

Finding her hesitant, Chu Yang just hoisted her up and dashed off, "Hold on tight!"

Qing Feng had already led the charge, leaving severed heads in their wake.

Zhi Mi looked sorrowful, but he had no choice. With only two hands and his power exhausted, he could only use the immobilization talismans to spare one or two beggars from beheading.

As the most capable guard of the Wang mansion, Qing Feng was indeed brave. Soon, he carved out a path through the chaos.

But Chu Yang, carrying the girl, wasn’t moving fast enough and was in danger of being caught up to!
