"Get the hell out of here!" Xiong Zhi shouted loudly, occasionally glancing back at the already darkened Xiaoyaozi.
"Stop him." Pili Hall Master naturally would not let Xiong Zhi escape.
"Swish swish..." The chaos subsided, and everyone began to launch darts and hidden weapons at Xiong Zhi.
Xiong Zhi ran forward without looking back; he had almost completely lost his sanity and didn't care about the darts anymore. His mind was blank.
"Calm down, sir, adjust thirty centimeters to the right..." Zero said.
Xiong Zhi did not hear anything; all he knew was to follow Xiaoyaozi's orders and keep running.
"Fool, why don't you block them..." In the darkness, a red figure appeared. Dual Rings shook, blocking all the hidden weapons.
"There's really nothing you can do." Xia Yun clapped her palm on Xiong Zhi's back, sending a burst of internal energy into him. Xiong Zhi immediately lost consciousness and collapsed.
"A real man should have some endurance... If it weren't for me, you would have died here." Xia Yun pouted, picked up Xiong Zhi, and escaped.
Xia Yun was also in this city; she came out at midnight and discovered Xiong Zhi and Xiaoyaozi. Curious about what they were doing, she followed them.
Xiong Zhi found Xia Yun mysterious, and Xia Yun viewed both of them in the same way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Outside the city, on the grass.
"I can only leave you here for now; the inn is not safe at all." Xia Yun tossed the unconscious Xiong Zhi onto the grass and sat down herself.
A girl, no matter how strong she is, would still feel exhausted running half a city with a man on her back.
"Awake? I told you, can't you be a bit stronger for once..." Xia Yun said casually. Her words were quite inconsistent with her delicate and cute appearance.
"When I become strong, I will definitely go back for revenge," Xiong Zhi replied, having regained her rationality.
"Of course you have to go! Let's go."
"Go? Where to?"
"Aren't you from the State of Chu? Let's go back home; I'll go with you."
Xiong Zhi was taken aback. "With me? Isn't that inappropriate..." Moreover, Xiong Zhi knew that she really had no home now... She wondered if the little house that Xiaoyaozi built for her still existed.
But that used to be home... Without family, it was merely a house she had lived in before.
"I don't have anyone to rely on either, so why not we stick together!" Xia Yun stood up and pulled Xiong Zhi to her feet as well.
"…"
"…"
The two held hands, which felt somewhat special.
"Mind yourself," Xiong Zhi said lightly, withdrawing her hand and walking alone in the direction of the State of Chu.
Xiong Zhi walked ahead while Xia Yun followed behind, not knowing why.
Xiong Zhi did not want to talk to Xia Yun, and Xia Yun did not disturb Xiong Zhi, as they walked silently one after the other.
"Wooden head!" Xia Yun kicked a pebble and muttered.
Xiong Zhi continued walking, completely ignoring Xia Yun.
Xiaoyaozi had said that Xia Yun was not an easy girl, and it was best to avoid getting too close, so Xiong Zhi followed that advice.
"Swish..." Four dark figures appeared in front of Xiong Zhi. The shadows were similar to those that had chased Xia Yun that day.
"Jinyiwei..." Xiong Zhi was already feeling annoyed; what did it matter if they were Jinyiwei?
Without saying a word, Xiong Zhi continued to walk forward nonchalantly, but when reaching the Jinyiwei, he suddenly struck with a sword!
Xiong Zhi didn't even need to draw the sword; the speed of the attack exceeded the imagination of the Jinyiwei!
"Swish... swish..." Dozens of dark figures suddenly sprang out from the surrounding darkness.
"We probably can't get away..." Xia Yun also drew her Dual Rings, leaning against Xiong Zhi's back.
"Kill as many as we can."
"I'm sorry, I brought them here because of my issues," Xia Yun said with some guilt.
"Although I don't know your identity or what you've done, you just saved me. For that alone, I can't blame you now; I should thank you instead. Otherwise, I would have died in the city long ago."
Suddenly, this place became a noisy battleground.
Xiong Zhi swung the sword, slicing through the necks of three people, but was struck in the back by a heavy punch.
“Ha... Ha...” Xiong Zhi gasped for breath, but his chest hurt unusually, making it impossible for him to move normally.
On the side, Xia Yun also found it difficult to fend off multiple attackers and was soon defeated. The psychological impact of the dozens of Jinyiwei also played a role.
“Take these two away.” The Jinyiwei revealed their golden silk uniforms, took out handcuffs, and led Xiong Zhi and Xia Yun away.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yan Kingdom, Yangle City, dungeon.
The Jinyiwei needed time to regroup, so they could not take the two directly to the capital and had to temporarily use the original county magistrate's dungeon.
During this process, the assassination of the county magistrate was naturally discovered, but it had nothing to do with Xiong Zhi at this point. Moreover, the Jinyiwei were too indifferent to care about such matters; the entire city lord's office was in chaos.
It would be fine once the court appointed a new city lord and county magistrate.
“Stay here quietly.” The Jinyiwei pushed Xiong Zhi and Xia Yun into a dungeon and did not bother with them any further.
The Jinyiwei did not care about separating prisoners by gender; after all, they would be sent to the capital the next day. Did they really care about such trivial matters?
That day, Xiong Zhi suffered a significant blow and was severely injured; he had already fallen unconscious again before the Jinyiwei brought him to the dungeon.
“This guy!” Xia Yun puffed her cheeks as she looked at Xiong Zhi, unsure of what to say.
“Hey, hey...” Xia Yun leaned closer to Xiong Zhi's head and called softly.
"......" Seeing no reaction from Xiong Zhi, Xia Yun didn't know what to do.
"Let's try..." An evil thought suddenly popped into Xia Yun's mind.
Xia Yun's lips slowly pressed against Xiong Zhi's forehead...
The dim and cold dungeon suddenly became heated...
【ps: Well... I won't elaborate further...】
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day, morning. Xiong Zhi had already woken up.
"In an hour, you will be taken to the royal capital. You have committed serious crimes!" A member of the Jinyiwei who had previously participated in capturing Xiong Zhi and Xia Yun approached the iron cell and sneered at the two inside.
Xia Yun raised her head and coldly stared at the Jinyiwei without saying a word. Xiong Zhi, on the other hand, didn't even look at him.
The Jinyiwei didn't linger, leaving some food before departing.
"How can you do this..." Xiong Zhi said angrily.
"You took advantage of me! Also, clearly... clearly you woke up later... it was you who initiated it..." As Xia Yun spoke, her face turned bright red.
"After that, I..." Xiong Zhi started but couldn't finish her sentence.
The instinctive reaction of a man... Xiong Zhi felt a bit lost even after just waking up.
"Alright, alright, I was wrong, okay..." Xia Yun skipped over and wrapped her arms around Xiong Zhi's arm, shaking it playfully. "Even if you don't admit it, you still have to take responsibility."
Xiong Zhi was speechless; was this woman out of her mind?
Moreover, Xiong Zhi could confirm that it was Xia Yun's first time.
"Why?" Xiong Zhi looked down at the cute girl.
"You saved me, and I know how to repay kindness... Plus, I'm very interested in you," Xia Yun said.
"I have someone I like." Xiong Zhi didn't know how to tell Xia Yun this because he still had someone else on his mind.
Xiong Zhi glanced over and saw the sword not far away; the Jinyiwei had not taken it away because, in their eyes, Xiong Zhi and the others posed no threat.
The heart is like a sword; the sword is the heart; the sword energy is the thought of the heart...
Xiong Zhi seemed to suddenly understand something.
