Chapter 202 Blazing
She sat there quietly, listening to the sound of a sword being drawn behind her, without the slightest tension or fear on her face.
She calmly pulled Gou Dan closer, then gently covered his eyes and whispered in his ear, "Children shouldn't look at these things."
Dog Egg nodded obediently and closed his eyes tightly.
At that moment, a man rushed out like a ghost, his speed astonishing.
In less than two breaths, he was back beside Su Fuying.
He held a sharp longsword in his hand, which gleamed coldly in the moonlight, seemingly radiating endless killing intent.
The man's face was expressionless, but his eyes revealed disdain for the enemy.
He silently took out a clean white handkerchief and carefully wiped the long sword in his hand, as if trying to erase all traces.
Although there was no blood on the sword, he still carefully and meticulously wiped every inch of the blade.
"you……"
The remaining enemies stood still, their hands still in the same positions, unaware of what had happened.
They couldn't even see how the man made his move; they only felt a slight warmth on their necks.
When they reached out to cover the wound, they found that blood was gushing out like a burst dam, and they couldn't stop it at all.
The men who had been shouting moments before all fell straight to the ground, lifeless, their eyes still fixed on the handsome man standing in the moonlight.
"My lord, my lord, I was blind and did not recognize your greatness. I will leave now."
Duofu was the first to react. He felt a wave of fear and cold sweat poured down his forehead.
He knew he had offended someone he shouldn't have, and at that moment he was only thinking about saving his life, even going so far as to kneel down and beg for mercy.
Xiao Yuheng sheathed his sword and glanced at Su Fuying, his eyes seemingly asking for her opinion.
Su Fuying lowered her head and asked gently, "Does Gou Dan like Duofu?"
"I don't like it!" Gou Dan answered without hesitation.
Duofu glared at Gou Dan and roared, "You ungrateful wretch! I've raised you and that old codger for so long, and you don't even know how to be grateful! You're a traitor!"
"No, that's not it!"
Gou Dan broke free from Su Fuying's hand and was stunned when he saw the corpses all over the ground, but he quickly recovered.
He said firmly, "You are lying. It was clearly you who took advantage of the war to burn, kill, and loot in the city. In the end, you took a liking to my grandmother and me, two weak people, occupied our house, ate our food, abused the Empress, and even beat Gou Dan."
As he spoke, Gou Dan's eyes reddened, and as if afraid that Su Fuying wouldn't believe him, he rolled up his sleeves, revealing large patches of red marks.
“Brother, look, Gou Dan didn’t lie.”
Su Fuying gently put his sleeve back down, feeling a pang of sympathy. "I trust Gou Dan. Grandma is getting old and needs someone to take care of her. Gou Dan, go back and rest first."
"it is good."
Gou Dan was very sensible. He gave Duo Fu one last deep look, then walked away without looking back, despite Duo Fu's pleading gaze.
"God damn!"
Duofu gritted his teeth. He knew that his life might be in Gou Dan's hands at this moment. He didn't expect that Gou Dan would leave like this. He should have just killed him.
"My esteemed guests, I did not lay a hand on you. Please forgive me."
There was another person standing in the courtyard, a tall, thin man with bandages wrapped around his feet and a limp. He was so frightened that he dropped his weapons and only wanted to escape.
"You go."
Su Fuying said calmly, "I had no intention of hurting anyone; you all brought this on yourselves."
"Yes, yes, it's all our fault. Thank you, sir, thank you, sir."
The gaunt man, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, limped toward the door.
"Sir, I didn't lay a hand on anyone, can I leave now?"
Duofu harbored a glimmer of hope and secretly planned to return for revenge if he could get out alive.
He even bent down and hugged his severed arm to his chest, as if it were his most precious treasure, and slowly retreated towards the door.
"I've already given you face."
Su Fuying's gaze turned slightly cold, as if she could see through Duofu's little thoughts.
Without the slightest hesitation, she reached out, grabbed the sword from the table, and threw it with all her might. The sword flew out like a bolt of lightning.
Duofu's expression changed drastically; he never expected Su Fuying to be so decisive.
He stared wide-eyed in terror, only to find it was too late to dodge.
Suddenly, an idea struck him. He grabbed the skinny man who was about to leave and pulled him in front of him, attempting to use him to block the fatal blow.
With a soft thud, the longsword pierced through the skinny man's body, sending snowflakes flying everywhere.
The skinny man stared wide-eyed at the long sword in front of his chest, blood gushing from the wound.
"You...you, me, me..."
Duofu lowered his head, trembling, looking at the long sword piercing his chest, his face showing shock and despair.
He couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes, and his heart was filled with fear and resentment.
The tall, thin man in front of him was clearly not expected to see this. He slowly turned his head, his gaze falling on the door that was only a step away from him, his eyes filled with regret.
He regretted listening to Duofu and getting involved in the conflict.
Now, he could only close his eyes helplessly and await death.
The two men quickly fell straight to the ground. Duofu tried to find someone to take the blow, but he never expected that the sword would be so powerful that it could easily pierce through their bodies even from such a distance.
"Let's go, someone will come to clean up later." Xiao Yuheng said, skillfully taking the woman's hand with a gentle look in his eyes.
Su Fuying stared at him, momentarily stunned. She found his attitude odd and couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you in a hurry to rescue General Pei?"
Xiao Yuheng smiled slightly and said in a relaxed tone, "No rush, the Bei Li people don't dare to touch them now." After saying that, he leisurely took the woman's hand in his and played with it.
Su Fuying frowned, pulled her hand away, and asked curiously, "Why?"
Xiao Yuheng put his hands behind his back, straightened his expression, and explained to her earnestly, "Three years ago, the ruler of Beili changed. That person was tyrannical and tyrannical, and kept provoking wars. But his current position does not belong to him. Now that the rightful ruler has returned, he is already overwhelmed with problems, so he has no time to care about anything else."
After listening, Su Fuying nodded thoughtfully, and then asked, "Are you very familiar with the King of Bei Li?"
She noticed the slight change in his expression when he mentioned this person earlier.
“Not familiar.” The man’s tone was firm and unwavering, as if he didn’t want to mention this person. He then added, “Let’s go inside, it’s cold outside.”
Su Fuying glanced at her thick cloak and thought she didn't feel cold, but seeing his thin clothes, she swallowed the words that were about to come out.
"By the way, where is the Pei family's youngest son?" Su Fuying suddenly looked at the man closing the door and asked curiously.
