Chapter 40 (II) Farewell
Some masked people dressed in white instantly poured out of the mountain, and they killed forty or fifty people in three strikes and five divisions, and their movements were clean and neat, without any panic. The rest were all frightened, and kept moving backwards, not daring to step forward. Seeing this, the leading general-looking person frowned, as if he was unwilling, and finally waved his hand and announced his retreat. The group received orders from above, and retreated to the nearby hillside, and in a short time there was no one to be seen.
The white-clothed masked man cleanly examined the corpse and confirmed that none of them were alive, and several people came over and saluted Yelan with their swords, "Superior." β
Yelan nodded, looking calm, "Things are done cleanly, go investigate the origin of those people, and report to me on a certain day." β
"Yes, upper. After speaking, the few people disappeared.
The only two remaining members of the Red Banner Crusader Shadow Guard had large and small cuts on their bodies, and their clothes were stained with blood. - It's really not easy to survive.
Yelan turned to Lie Beiyao and said, "It's okay." After finishing speaking, he reached out and touched Lie Beiyao's cheek, "Do you have an appointment?" After speaking, he glanced at the two shadow guards standing aside with his eyes, suggesting that it would be uneasy to hand over Lie Beiyao to them to protect himself.
Lie Beiyao glanced at the two shadow guards and asked, "Where is my brother?"
One person said strongly, "His Royal Highness is nearby, and his subordinates will release the signal." β
"Whoosh!" a signal was released, and a moment later, more than a dozen people dressed as Red Banner Crusaders came down from the mountain, and the leader was dressed in black, with a dragon tattoo on his clothes and a jade pendant pinned to his waist. - It is not difficult to guess that he is Lie Yu, the prince of Beixuan.
As soon as Lie Beiyao saw Lie Yu, his body trembled slightly, his eyes stared straight at him, and tears were rolling in his eyes. When Lie Yu saw Lie Beiyao, he first paused, and then ran over quickly and hugged Lie Beiyao, and Lie Beiyao threw himself into his arms. Lie Yu smiled, gently stroked Lie Beiyao's long silky hair, and touched her head with his hand, it took a long time to let go, looked at her, and sighed lightly, "Yao'er, you have lost weight, it's my brother who is not good, and my brother is late." β
Lie Beiyao didn't speak, tears came out of her eyes very uncontrollably, Lie Yu gently wiped away the tears for her, and smiled at her...... At that moment, when he saw his dearest sister, he felt that everything in the world did not exist, as long as she was well, he could give up anything, even the position of the crown prince......
The two talked about the relationship between brother and sister, and Lie Yu knew that he could not stay here for a long time, and suddenly remembered one person......
He turned to look at Yelan who was standing there, and Yelan was also looking at him. "Your Excellency?"
"Jiuchen, the King of Light. Yelan said lightly.
Lie Yu's expression changed, and he subconsciously moved his right hand to the handle of the sword, and when Lie Beiyao saw this, he hurriedly pulled Lie Yu's sleeve, and said softly beside him, "Brother, His Royal Highness the King of Light is here to help us." It was he who deliberately led the army away and killed the enemy just now. β
"There was another wave of people just now?" Lie Yu looked flustered, but he was much less wary of Yelan, and his right hand was withdrawn from the scabbard.
"Yes, Your Highness. Shadow Guard hugged his fists, "Wearing Jiuchen's military uniform, his martial arts are very good." There were forty or fifty of them, and fifty or sixty of them were standing on the mountain. Our people were no match for them, and when the whole army was about to be wiped out, it was the men and horses of the King of Light who appeared, and there were not many of them, and they were very neatly killed, so that Her Royal Highness the princess was safe. β
After hearing this, Lie Yu hugged Ye Lan, "Thank you King Guang for your help, if you need help in the future, Lie Yu is willing to help." βFlame Feather alluded to the fact that he could help him take the throne in the future.
Yelan was not a fool, he naturally understood what Lie Yu meant, he just bowed his head slightly and did not answer.
Lie Yu raised his head, and there was still a trace of doubt in his eyes that could not be dissipated. "His Excellency King Guang's men and horses must be first-class masters, and their martial arts should be much higher than those of the Red Banner Crusader. The martial arts of the Red Banner Crusader are considered to be first-class in the world, but I didn't expect the martial arts of the guards raised by Your Excellency to be so high. β
"They are not raised by me, and their martial arts are only mediocre, and His Royal Highness has a good reputation. Yelan said flatly.
Lie Yu secretly thought to himself: It is rare in the world to have such martial arts...... Could it be ...... This His Royal Highness the King of Light is really not simple.
Ye Lan continued, "I'm afraid that the signal just now has also been received by my Jiuchen army, Prince Lieyu might as well go first, it's too late, even if it is, I can't help you." β
Lie Yu clenched his fists, "Thank you." I will take this to heart and take my leave. After finishing speaking, he pulled Lie Beiyao away, and when he left, Lie Beiyao's expression was a little gloomy, and finally turned his head and nodded at him. Yelan nodded silently, with a hint of hidden feelings in her eyes......
......
Lie Yu and his party had just left for a moment when Ye Fan's army arrived. Yelan was so clever that he made a few cuts on himself, and then he got blood from the ground and smeared it on his clothes. As soon as Ye Fan saw Ye Lan, he hurriedly dismounted, stumbled, and almost fell, he ran over worriedly, and saw that Ye Lan was fine, but the injuries on his body were not light, he clenched his fists angrily, and his tone was cold and full of anger. "Go check! Seal the scene!"
The reserve officer was very obedient by Yelan**, and after listening to the order from above, he immediately ordered his men to search and be on guard at the same time. Ye Fan glanced around and found that only Ye Lan was left alive with the entourage, he couldn't help frowning nervously and lowered his voice, "It's really Ye Shu's people......
Yelan didn't nod or shake his head, "There are two groups of people, and Princess Beixuan has been robbed. They got off the **, I lost most of my martial arts, and the second group of people and horses were wearing border guard uniforms, although the possibility of Ye Shu was great, but he had no friendship with the border guards. β
"Han Yue, the deputy commander of the border guards, is in the neutral faction, but he has some friendship with Yeshu. Ye Fan suddenly said, "It is possible that he called the border guards to cover himself." β
Yelan pondered for a moment, and suddenly raised his eyes to look at Ye Fan, "How do you know?"
Ye Fan replied casually, "Brother Yejun's shop is open at the border, and the third brother has gossiped about it. As long as it's about Yeshu, heh, I should remember it firmly, but I didn't expect it to come in handy today. β
Ye Lan nodded, Ye Fan glanced at the blood stains on Ye Lan's body that had not yet coagulated, and said with some concern, "How is the fourth brother's injury? β
"Good. β
