Chapter 161 Xiaoyao "encounters" an assassination attempt
Xiaoyao and Fangfengbei lived together like a normal couple for a month. Simple happiness is the easiest way to satisfy people.
A few days ago, Yin Yue received an interesting piece of news, telling Xiao Yao that someone was offering money to buy her life. Xiao Yao changed her mind and came up with a plan to take advantage of the situation.
Fang Fengbei hugged Xiaoyao from behind, and they kneaded a small dough together. The white flour turned their arms white. Fang Fengbei gently put his head on Xiaoyao's shoulder, as if he could imagine that Xiaoyao was like this every day, making delicious poison cakes bit by bit. Xiaoyao tilted her head and kissed Fang Fengbei lightly, and asked in a low voice:
"Are you tired? Do you want to go and rest first?"
"I'm not tired, I just want to lean on you!"
"Clingy! Hehe, here's your reward!"
Xiaoyao used her flour-covered hands to lightly touch the tip of Fangfengbei's nose, and then drew three lines on each side of his face.
"Haha, I've turned into a calico cat! So cute!"
"Xiaoyao is also very cute."
Fangfengbei quickly grabbed a small ball of flour, smeared it on Xiaoyao's face, and then quickly ran to the other side of the table. No matter how hard Xiaoyao tried to chase him, she couldn't catch up with him, so she simply grabbed the flour and threw it directly at him. Fangfengbei could dodge it but deliberately didn't.
The two of them played and had fun chasing each other.
Xiaoyao was tired from running, and was grabbed by Fangfengbei and held in his arms.
Fang Fengbei gently helped Xiaoyao wipe the flour off her face, and Xiaoyao also gently patted Fang Fengbei's away. When the two of them were affectionately approaching and about to kiss deeply, a cough interrupted the ambiguous atmosphere between them.
Xuanxuan finally made it to the day after his confinement. He felt guilty for his previous suspicion of Xiaoyao. He asked Xiaoxiao to check the medicine and found it was fine. How could he doubt Xiaoyao's good intentions towards him? So he came to find her immediately after his confinement. But he didn't expect to see this scene.
Actually, Xiaoyao did it on purpose. She had already instructed that if Xuanxuan wanted to come, he should be allowed in without being stopped. She just wanted to piss him off to death! But being interrupted at the critical moment made her quite angry!
Xiaoyao stood upright as if she had done something wrong.
"Brother, why are you here..."
"If I don't come, do you plan to live like this with him for the rest of your life?"
"It's not impossible!"
Xuanxuan was extremely angry. Xiaoyao was the most noble princess and should be paired with the most outstanding man in the Great Wilderness! What the hell was Fang Fengbei to him?
"Come here! Let's go back and live!"
Xiaoyao seemed to have heard something terrible. She hid in Fangfengbei's arms and trembled.
"I don't want to go back. They will kill me. If Yue Liang dies, they will definitely hate me to death!"
"How could that be! I promise no one will dare to hurt you!"
"Then I want Bei to go back with me! If he doesn't go, I won't go either."
Xiaoyao held Bei's hand tightly, as if she would not go anywhere without Bei. Seeing Fangfeng Bei's playful expression, Xuanxuan wanted to rush forward and kill him. How many magic potions had he fed Xiaoyao to make her so devoted to him?
Xuan put on a smiling face and agreed with a gentle smile.
"Brother, you're so nice. I still have some pastries to make. Come sit down for a while and have dinner before you go back! Let's cook together."
Xiaoyao looked at Fangfengbei with deep affection, as if 玱xuan didn't exist, pulling Fangfengbei to work. 玱xuan couldn't stand it anymore and offered to help. So, when the three of them were together, 玱xuan always deliberately turned his back on Fangfengbei. Fangfengbei didn't get angry, but felt that 玱xuan was being childish. 玱xuan's intentions were so obvious, and only Xiaoyao in her previous life hadn't noticed. She had simply trusted her family too much, only to be betrayed in the most painful way.
Xuan watched Xiaoyao constantly picking up food for Fangfengbei, while there was nothing in his own bowl, so he deliberately coughed to remind Xiaoyao.
Xiaoyao looked at Xuanxuan strangely.
"Brother, why aren't you eating? Do you have no appetite? Or is Xiaoyao's cooking not tasty?"
"No, it's delicious, eat it right away!"
In this way, the three of them finished their dinner in a strange atmosphere.
After dinner, Xiaoyao told Yinyue to pack up while she went back to her room to change clothes before coming out. Xiaoyao just gently tugged at Fangfengbei's hand, and Fangfengbei immediately understood what was going on. He looked around and stopped at a man in black dark guard uniform, then casually played with Xiaoyao's fingers.
The night was dark, and there might be a heavy rain tonight. The sky was covered with dark clouds. Xuan urged them to pack up quickly and return before the rain came. Everyone quickly packed up and put all their things into the space. Fengbei, Xiaoyao, and Xuan got into the carriage, and the others rode horses. Xiaoyao's ten secret guards and Xuan's eight guards went back together.
It's a dark and windy night, a perfect time to kill someone.
Xiaoyao leaned against Fangfengbei and dozed off. Xuan glared at Fangfengbei and gnashed his teeth. Fangfengbei looked smug and provocative. He touched Xiaoyao's face and looked at Xuan with a playful look that looked like he was about to spit fire.
More than a dozen arrows flew towards them at an extremely fast speed.
"There's a killer, Master, be careful!"
An arrow was not blocked and shot straight in through the carriage window. Fang Fengbei protected Xiaoyao and dodged it sideways. Xiaoyao immediately woke up. With a shock of Xuan's spiritual power, the carriage suddenly broke into pieces. Three people flew out of the carriage. Of course, Xiaoyao was held by Fang Fengbei!
Xuan looked around and saw that there were more than thirty assassins, and there were archers in the dark shooting arrows from time to time. Were they going to kill them all?
Xuan and Fangfeng Bei protected Xiaoyao tightly and were on guard. Seeing the secret guards fighting fiercely, they had no time to protect them. Only Yinyue and Xiaoxiao were still protecting them closely. Fangfeng Bei spent most of his time looking at one of the secret guards, paying attention to whether she could handle it.
These were members of another assassin organization. To make the play more realistic, Xiaoyao thought about it and decided to have Yinyue reject her organization's offer, forcing the man to target another assassin organization. The risk was enormous! However, Xiaoyao gave each of the secret guards spiritual power recovery and life-saving elixirs to ensure their safety.
Arrows kept coming, and Fangfeng Bei held Xiaoyao's hand and kept changing positions. If you noticed, you would have noticed that Fangfeng Bei was moving towards a female secret guard. Xuanxuan didn't understand why, but in order to protect Xiaoyao, he also followed. Yinyue and Xiaoxiao also followed tacitly. The killers' target was Xuanxuan and Xiaoyao, and all the arrows were directed at them, making it very difficult for them to deal with it.
Fang Fengbei held a long sword in his hand, which was made for him by Xiaoyao. She said that Fang Fengbei was always without a weapon, which was a great disadvantage. Even if he couldn't reveal his identity, he couldn't let himself be too passive.
Fang Fengbei kept cutting down the arrows shot at him, and together with the female secret guard, he protected Xiao Yao. He also had to deal with the constant attacks from killers from all directions. It was quite "stressful". The killers in the dark were very mysterious, appearing and disappearing, and hard to figure out. They were in the light, and the killers were in the dark. They were at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and it was very difficult to cope with it.
The situation was deadlocked for nearly an incense stick of time. Seeing that they could not take down the enemy, the killers used more and more killing moves, as if they were determined to win. Suddenly, more than 20 arrows were concentrated towards Xiaoyao and Xuan. Seeing that the female secret guard had no time to dodge an arrow shot from the side, Fangfeng Bei let go of Xiaoyao's hand. A burst of spiritual power hit the arrow to make it change direction, but it hit one of the killers in the throat. The killer fell to the ground and died in disbelief.
After Fang Fengbei released his hand, Xiaoyao rushed towards Xuan. There was a sound of an arrow hitting the flesh. Xuan turned around and saw blood oozing from Xiaoyao's mouth. Her chest was pierced by an arrow and she fell straight down.
"Your Highness, I'm here to help you!"
Tu Shanjing's voice sounded from the front. Tu Shanjing was passing by and happened to see this scene. He quickly joined the battle with a dozen of his own secret guards.
"Xiao Yao!"
A heart-wrenching sound echoed through the dark night. Without caring about anything else, Xuan rushed forward to hug Xiaoyao, who was about to fall to the ground, but Fangfeng Bei caught him in his arms first. Xuan glared at him and asked sternly:
"Why didn't you protect her?!"
"She blocked the arrow for you, and now you come to question me! Who is incompetent?" Fang Fengbei's cold voice came.
"Brother... don't blame me... it's me... who's afraid... you'll get hurt... I'm willing to do anything for you... Brother... Brother, be careful... Seventh Prince... your sister... can't be with you anymore..."
"Xiaoyao, you can't leave me, how could you leave me! Ah ah..."
Xuan fell to his knees helplessly, howling in agony. He looked at Xiaoyao's drooping hands and tightly closed eyes, feeling heartbroken and unable to breathe. His entire body trembled constantly, as if all his efforts had lost their meaning.
"Yuyang! I, Xuanxuan, will never give up on you!"
