Chapter 14: Chapter 14: The Bandits Are Here!

As the whistle pierced through the clouds, a group of riders suddenly dashed out from the shade of the trees.

They were dozens of burly men, dressed in specially made animal-skin short coats characteristic of the barbarians, exposing their muscular arms and legs. Each rode a tall horse, brandishing gleaming curved blades, howling as they charged toward them.

"Damn it!"

Gao Feng reacted quickly, immediately shouting, "Miss, run! The horse thieves are here!"

Horse thieves?!

Shang Ruyi was shocked, quickly turning her horse to flee!

But at that moment, a suspicion arose in her mind. Although this place was desolate, it wasn’t far from the Eastern Capital. How could there be horse thieves?

Moreover, just now, that whistle—

A thought popped into her mind but was immediately shattered amidst the galloping and jolting. Simultaneously, shouts and cries erupted behind her. While racing her horse, Shang Ruyi turned to see the horse thieves waving their gleaming blades as they charged at them.

Gao Feng, unfazed by the threat, drew his long sword from his waist and charged forward on his horse.

In that fleeting moment as he and the leading barbarian rider crossed paths, Gao Feng leaned back, barely avoiding the barbarian’s slashing blade.

His sword swiftly sliced across the opponent’s arm.

With a scream, one of the horse thieves’ arms hung limply, and he tumbled, flung off by his galloping horse!

This sudden move startled the howling barbarians charging in.

But soon, emboldened by their greater numbers, they charged at Gao Feng once again. Gao Feng remained unflustered, maneuvering his horse to deftly dodge the encirclement, looking back to shout at the guards in the wedding procession, "Take action!"

The others responded quickly. Several guards immediately drew their swords from the carriage and joined Gao Feng in countering the attack!

In an instant, the vast wasteland turned into a melee between the two groups of riders.

However, the horse thieves were numerous. Even though all the escorts in the wedding procession stepped forward to fight, they couldn’t stop all of them. Several burly riders bypassed Gao Feng and charged directly towards the main road.

Their target was clear, heading straight for Shang Ruyi—

"There she is, catch her!"

Seeing the adversaries engaged in battle, the barbarians looked up at her upon hearing the shout. Each gaze was like a ferocious wolf’s, seemingly desiring to tear a piece from her flesh. Immediately, a dozen barbarians spurred their horses toward her.

"Catch her!"

"Don’t let her get away!"

This shocked Gao Feng, who shouted, "Protect Miss!"

However, they were all entangled with the horse thieves and couldn’t break free momentarily. Watching the few horse thieves closing in, Shang Ruyi couldn’t care less, turning her horse to gallop down the other end of the main road.
