Chapter 574.2: Fu Rong’s Determination, Bloody Path
Once Fu Rong walked far, “Gong Jiu, if Fu Rong has any injuries, just take some medicine and let Hei Mei help her apply it. Also, on Sun Yi Lin’s side, reduce tonight’s burden as much as possible.” Jing Wan said as such. In any case, she didn’t believe that the two of them were really perfectly fine.
“Yes.” Gong Jiu responded, not even bothering to look at Li Hong Yuan’s expression. With wangfei present, wangye can only be secondary.
For the sake of recuperating, Jing Wan also went to sleep early. Because Li Hong Yuan was present, even if knowing that the second half of the night might be extremely chaotic, she wasn’t worried. As such, she very easily just fell asleep, also sleeping very soundly.
When Jing Wan got woken up, Gong mama and Hei Mei, as well as Fu Rong, were all serving by her side. All the things for washing up were all properly prepared, and once everything was completely in order, Jing Wan also fully woken up.
This while, her entire attire was also very simple, leaning towards the neutral gender. And regardless whether it was on her hair, or on her body, there all weren’t any ornaments. The only accessory was probably just the buddhist beads on her wrist. However, in the end, Jing Wan still let Gong mama have the dagger tied to her arm. Although the sleeves became much narrower, it was still very easy to pull up the sleeves.
“With me present, what does Wan Wan still need it for?” Li Hong Yuan was slightly displeased. He had an injury, so won’t rashly use force. Moreover, he simply wasn’t comfortable with having Jing Wan given to others. That’s why, his greatest task was just protecting his wife.
“I naturally trust you. This is merely in case of an emergency.” How was Jing Wan not necessarily worried for him. Sometimes, even if knowing one’s ability was limited, even possibly being more of a hinderance, one still had the feelings of wanting to protect one’s lover. Of course, in Jing Wan’s past life, she’d also learned self-defense before, and that time when traveling to the northwest, she further studied with Gong mama. Because her foundation was good, although unable to compare with those that were highly trained, she wasn’t that far off either. That’s why, she certainly won’t be a hinderance.
Li Hong Yuan furrowed his brows, but ultimately didn’t say anything.
Everything was in order. Jing Wan stood up, slightly stretching. Just, when lowering her head, she suddenly discovered that her stomach seemingly grew quite a bit, not knowing whether it was because the clothes were more close-fitting, or because in the previous period of time, she all didn’t pay attention to her stomach. Carefully calculating, from getting pregnant on the eleventh of the sixth month, it’s been five months already. In another four some months, the child will be born.
Jing Wan slowly exhaled a breath, turning back to look at Li Hong Yuan, saying with a smile, “Let’s go.”
Li Hong Yuan caressed her face, leaning over and kissing her on the lips. In any case, these last two days, he would just kiss Jing Wan from time to time, without the slightest misgiving. Jing Wan was used to it, and the people by their side were also all used to it———–when seeing, it was also just turning the head. Even Hei Mei, who was the most pure, all won’t blush.
Torches were already lit outside. It wasn’t considered many, but it also wasn’t considered few, for the most part controlled at the level where the enemy won’t be able to see too clearly, but also won’t affect their own way forward. And at a glance, Jing Wan just saw Sun Yi Lin. Compared to the others’ practically uniform air, he ultimately was a bit unique. His spirit appeared very bad, much worse than Fu Rong. It can be seen that a certain someone sure enough still let someone specially take care of him.
However, compared to on the way here, that strange air on Sun Yi Lin weakened by a lot. Even if still that ugly face, there won’t be that uncomfortable feeling.
The abnormality on Sun Yi Lin can only be looked into later. Although unforgivable, for Sun Yi Jia’s sake, Jing Wan was still willing to look for an excuse for him. From Sun Yi Lin’s standing right now, it was on the opposing side of Jing Wan. That’s why, by his side, there was also someone ‘escorting’ him. However, don’t count on this person being diligent. If there’s the need, then he perhaps will just directly kill Sun Yi Lin————towards an enemy, when unable to take away, could it be to even let him go back? How simple of a reasoning.
Li Hong Yuan guarded Jing Wan, and around them were a few others separately guarding, not too many, more or less like a side formation. If guarding too tightly, then it will just be more conspicuous. When time comes, they might just become the target. Additionally, Hei Mei and Fu Rong walked together, similarly having people guarding around them. In a certain sense, they were also considered Jing Wan’s substitutes.
Jing Wan silently focused on walking. The clamor outside the mountain cavity also gradually entered the ears. The amount of people actually weren’t few, but compared to the cries of the battlefield, it was still much weaker.
At a certain moment, their pace picked up, almost a light jog. And seemingly because of their appearance, the clamor suddenly increased, even able to feel the pressure of a stream of people suddenly rushing forth.
TN: All
When at the northwest, the closest Jing Wan was to the battlefield was still in the rear, not personally witnessing that scene. Right now, perhaps can’t compare with vastness of that time, but it wasn’t considered too far off either. Especially when getting closer, it was like as if able to hear the sound of the sharp blade entering the flesh and drawing out fresh blood. Also, that exceptionally obvious bloody scent made one faintly nauseous.
Jing Wan was unsure whether or not she can withstand. That’s why, she just buried her head and tightly followed by Li Hong Yuan’s side the whole time. In reality, right now, as the special member that needed to be protected, one should avoid randomly glancing around. Jing Wan still wouldn’t go as far as to make this kind of low level mistake.
Li Hong Yuan’s feet never once stopped, the direction also very clear. And from beginning to end, Jing Wan all didn’t hear any talking sounds nearby. It was obvious, between him and his subordinates, there was a way to communicate without using words.
The Kingdom of Zhang was determined to take Li Hong Yuan’s life. The various directions outside the mountain cavity certainly will all be blocked to death. However, because of the terrain, as well as the other side’s arrangements, there were ultimately areas that were relatively weaker. These things, the people under Li Hong Yuan certainly will have already figured out clearly. Without communicating, how can they be this firm and unswerving.
Jing Wan felt the stickiness under her foot. Under the circumstances of not having rain or snow, it goes without saying that it certainly must be contaminated with blood.
The light of the torches was limited. At a certain moment, Jing Wan stepped on a soft object that had a hard center, her feet even slightly staggering. Jing Wan’s first reaction was, that was an arm.
Clearly, previously she’d already personally killed someone before, and regardless whether it was physically or mentally, there all weren’t any reactions, yet now……..
Sure enough, whether it was killing someone, or someone dying, all needed to select the target.
Li Hong Yuan hurriedly supported Jing Wan, “Wan Wan.”
“I’m fine.” She pressed down the discomfort inside.
Li Hong Yuan frowned in the dark, and without saying a second word, had Jing Wan picked up horizontally.
Getting caught off guard, Jing Wan’s body somewhat tilted backwards, but her mouth was tightly shut. She hugged his neck, and for the sake of preventing the enemies nearby from hearing, lowered her voice, “Ah Yuan, put me down. This way will be too conspicuous.”
Walking on one’s own, the torches swaying, perhaps still not that easy to be seen, but walking while carrying someone, as long as the torches slightly sway, getting seen by someone, one loud shout, and they will just be exposed.
“Wan Wan don’t worry, this husband will definitely have you taken back safely.” Li Hong Yuan subconsciously kissed the corner of her eye again.
In the middle of nowhere out in the wilderness, the path was just rugged and uneven to begin with. For ordinary people, even in daytime, when walking, it all won’t be that smooth, let alone now when unable to see clearly. But, walking on her own will indeed drag down the speed. Jing Wan pursed her lips, her arms holding a little tighter, no longer opening her mouth.
In this way, she didn’t need to focus on walking, so can check out the situation nearby. Weapons interlocked in the outer circle, while the middle layer followed-up in attacking at any time. However, after carefully examining, they seemingly had her figure perfectly blocked, and the torch could only illuminate a square inch area. As such, her worry seemingly was excessive.
Compared to the people of Zhang that were shouting to kill, the people surrounding the two of them appeared very quiet.
“Jin Wangfei is over here!” Don’t know who loudly shouted.
Just, this direction clearly was in the complete opposite of theirs. The enemies directly in front instantly just reduced by half. With the pressure suddenly reducing, their speed in breaking through distinctly increased.
Jin Qinwang wasn’t willing to let his wangfei get hurt——-even if that harm was just a possibility, he still would rather get controlled. It can be seen, just how important his wangfei was to him. Under this kind of circumstance, even if the two of them travel separately, if Jin Wangfei meets with danger, it was impossible for Jin Qinwang to be indifferent. And Zhang’s plan was just when they are breaking through, tightly keep an eye on the two of them. If able to directly find Li Hong Yuan, then even better.
One must know, previously, the person from Zhang that was in charge of intercepting and killing Li Hong Yuan this time had already set a large reward, whoever can take Li Hong Yuan’s head will be rewarded with a high position, generous salary, and beauties, not a single one lacking.
For the ordinary soldiers, how was this not enticing? It was merely killing a person, yet can just reach the skies in one step. Compared to strenuously struggling for a lifetime in other places, yet might still be stuck at the lowest level, how to choose, simply don’t even need to think.
That’s why, the appeal of these words were absolutely formidable. The people that got drawn over in fact didn’t even hesitate once.
Jing Wan’s heart couldn’t help but tense up, turning her head towards the direction of the sound just now. Under the dim light, she could only see shadows moving, with more and more people rushing over, still constantly crossing swords. It can be seen, there were the people from Zhang, and also their own people. Using her identity to draw away the enemy, if not Fu Rong, then it was just Hei Mei, and the two of them were together.
The two of them perhaps had the intention of becoming her body double, but it wasn’t deliberately arranged.
Jing Wan didn’t know whether they’d gotten inadvertently discovered, or had deliberately done this.
Her fist gripped tighter and tighter. If possible, she didn’t wish for anything to happen to them. If possible, she hoped that everyone can be fine, but in this kind of situation, how can there not be casualties.
Jing Wan tightly clenched her teeth, her breathing becoming somewhat heavy, yet still not speaking. She was very clear inside, as long as the two of them escape, the others will more likely be able to survive. If they get caught, then that will just mean that all of them will die here.
The people around them were all fighting for her, giving their all for her, even sacrificing their life. That kind of feeling absolutely won’t be good. As long as not the type of person that was absolutely selfish and self-serving, cold and heartless, then all won’t be able to be indifferent, let alone Jing Wan. That impact was absolutely unprecedented.
Li Hong Yuan was able to understand Jing Wan’s current feelings. After all, that kind of feeling, he’d already tasted before in his past life. Afterwards, his heart just grew increasingly cold and hard, although not to the extent of being completely indifferent, it nevertheless can’t affect him anymore, let alone make him do something irrational.
He was extraordinarily calm, his pace increasing more and more. And the people guarding around them were also like so.
