course, thinking of you has made me lose weight." Qin Luoyan smiled, but her heart churned with nausea. Sure enough, when a person is pushed to the brink, they can do anything."Heh," Fu Zimuo chuckled...After the army led by Zhao Che breached the city gates of Man Kingdom's capital, the city was thrown into chaos. Although Zhao Che had ordered his troops not to disturb the civilians, a large forest can house all sorts of birds. In the midst of panic, it is better to kill mistakenly than to let anyone go. As a result, some innocent people were inevitably hurt among those who were killed.

Therefore, the common people of the entire capital city rushed home in fear, and for a time, the streets were in chaos. Those who lived farther from home were even more anxious and lost their composure.

"How is the city now" Qin Luoyan anxiously waited in the courtyard with Yisheng. When Xu Hou, who had gone out to inquire about the news, returned, she immediately greeted him and asked.

Xu Houqi gasped and gulped down a mouthful of water before sitting on the stone bench in the courtyard. He said, "Although Zhao Cheng's army is formidable, the emperor of that barbarian nation is not to be trifled with. He wasn't a fool to have fought his way out of the bloodbath and seized power. Now, he has dispatched a secret unit to kill innocent civilians within the city and blame it on Zhao Cheng's army. The citizens now believe that Zhao Cheng's army is burning and looting, so they are very resentful towards them. Whenever they see the 'rebellious army,' they go to the government office to report."

"The emperor of the Barbarian Nation was quite clever. Knowing his city's strength was insufficient, he mobilized the people." Qin Luoyan said this, but in her heart, she despised this political struggle. For the throne, these people weren't truly thinking about the well-being of the people; they were simply using the people as a tool to achieve their own ends.

Therefore, in every political struggle, every war, and every change of dynasty, it is the common people who suffer the most.

"And, the emperor's men from Man Country were searching for Yisheng door to door. When I came back, I saw a team already at the street corner, and I thought they would be here soon. The troops of Zuocheng should have met with the Imperial Guards on Zheng Street now. I estimate that if the emperor's army comes charging in a while, Zuocheng's army might not be able to protect us." Xu Hou analyzed like this.

“Even if we could protect ourselves, in the end, Zuocheng wouldn't spare our lives. But the more chaotic the scene becomes, the more advantageous it is for us. We’ll seize the opportunity and leave as soon as possible. Neither side will let us live, so their fight has nothing to do with us!” Qin Luoyan said.

Xu Hou looked at Qin Luoyan in surprise. She wasn't a politician, not even a man who understood the affairs of the court, yet her analysis was damn accurate. Such a woman, was she born with the wrong body If she were a man, she might not have accomplished great things.

Xu Hou sighed and patted Yixing's head, saying, "You child, you really don't know whether it's good fortune or misfortune. You were born with a hard life, but you just happened to meet such a sister."

A happy smile played on Yisheng's lips. Yes, in fact, Heaven was still kind to him. When he had nothing, a miracle truly appeared, leading him to her.

Three people were talking, at the entrance of the courtyard, when a figure rushed in hastily.

It was Xiaolong who burst in, his face full of anxiety. He didn't even glance at Xu Hou and Yisheng, but rushed straight to Qin Luoyan's face and said, "The Emperor's troops from Man Nation have arrived. They are fighting with Zhao Cheng's men in the front hall, and the courtyard has been surrounded. The Man Nation emperor's people have already started firing cannons, reinforcements will arrive soon. I'll take you out first!"

He was a professional bodyguard, skilled not in fighting but in protection. He was the most outstanding bodyguard, even under such heavy encirclement, he still had a high chance of bringing one person out, but to walk with three people together, that was almost impossible.

"You know I won't leave," Qin Luoyan glared at him. "Yi Sheng is one of the most important people to me. If something happens to him here, there's no point in me going out."

“But the risks of you staying here are too high.” Xiaolong still couldn’t help but try to persuade him, “Why don’t I send you out first and then come back to rescue him” But whether he could save him was uncertain.

Qin Luo Yan saw through his thoughts. She knew that as a dark guard, her duty was to protect the target above all else, and others were not his responsibility.

So, she shook her head.

Xiao Long sighed, "Since you insist on doing this, then we can only play it by ear. I hope... that we all manage to live to see the outside."

The thick, metallic scent of blood was carried into the courtyard by the cold wind. As the smell intensified, a soldier brandishing a sword finally led the charge through the courtyard gate. Upon seeing the few people inside, especially Yisheng, the soldier roared, “We found him! Right here! He looks eight out of ten like the portrait…”

But before the soldier could finish his words, a long sword pierced through his chest. The soldier stared in shock, his eyes wide with disbelief. Before he could react, blood gushed from his mouth and nose. He died without ever understanding how the sword behind him had appeared there.

After those soldiers fell, the ones left guarding the courtyard with Zhao Cheng rushed inside. However, there weren't many of them left, only twenty or thirty. They retreated into the courtyard, and a large force of soldiers appeared at the gate. Those soldiers were wearing the attire of the Barbarian Nation's Imperial Guard, they must have come from the palace.

"Spare the man in the painting, and kill everyone else!" The commander of the palace guards barked the order, and everyone surged into the courtyard. During this unusual time, they had no interest in wasting words with these people. To them, killing an enemy meant reducing their risk.

Just like hostile forces, in the process of fighting, being merciful to the enemy is harming oneself. Since it's already a destined showdown, let the enemy be completely wiped out!

Both sides seemed to understand this truth, so there was no excessive verbal communication. The two sides immediately engaged in battle.

Xu Hou protected Yingsheng, while Xiaolong protected Qin Luoyan. They struggled to survive amidst the fierce fighting between the two armies. However, it was clear that the imperial army had the upper hand, and with the continuous arrival of reinforcements, the army left by Zuocheng seemed much weaker in strength.

"It seems the men of Zuo Cheng are about to crumble. I reckon in at most half a pot of tea, they'll be wiped out!" Xu Hou growled.

Qin Luoyan nodded, "If they fell into the hands of the Emperor of Man Nation, they would probably die a terrible death. “Find a breakthrough and break out!”

Xu Hou nodded, then looked around. His brow furrowed, "There's only one exit to the courtyard, but that direction has the most people, and the leader is still at the entrance."

"Charge!" Qin Luoyan said without hesitation. If there was only one path, what else was there to choose

"Good!" Xu Hou and Xiao Long both responded in unison, and then the four of them moved towards the direction of the courtyard gate.
