In the middle of the moon, the entire Dangyang City was hidden under a pitch-black canopy, which seemed extraordinarily quiet.

In the dark environment, Xie Qingning suddenly heard a very slight sound from the tiles overhead, and she immediately woke up, who had not completely fallen asleep, looked up at the black roof, and after narrowing her eyes slightly, she quietly rolled up from the bed, and laid Xie Huazhao and Lan Yongzhi who fell asleep without alarm.

The window of the attic on the second floor was silently pushed open a narrow gap, and Xie Qingning quietly looked around through this gap, only the continuous ridges of roofs and the shadows of the dark trees came into view, and the streets were empty, except for the occasional faint barking of dogs, nothing could be heard.

But the more calm and inconspicuous the atmosphere was, the more fine goosebumps poured out of Xie Qingning's skin, and she felt that in a dark corner, someone was silently watching every move in this house, and she had no way to tell where that person was hiding.

Xie Qingning pondered for a moment, and was about to extend his spiritual sense to explore the surrounding environment, when a row of black-clothed people suddenly jumped out of the roof in front of him, all of them holding sharp knives in their hands, the sword light was huo, and it exuded a cold glow in the moonlight.

As soon as his eyebrows jumped, Xie Qingning immediately restrained his breath, but a piece of sweat involuntarily gushed out of his palms.

After all, this is Dangyang City, the territory of the Wu family and the Kuang family, the so-called strong dragon does not suppress the ground snake, not to mention that she is not too strong now. Xie Qingning watched the black-clothed people approach this side silently, and at the same time took out a bottle of medicinal powder from the brocade bag hanging from his waist, uncorked the bottle, and quietly reached out his fingers to spill the medicinal powder out of the window.

A faint aroma quietly spread with the night wind, making the black-clothed people who had just jumped into the backyard wall almost unconscious and fell to the ground, the dull sound woke up the half-asleep Lan Yongzhi, when he turned over and sat up, he saw Xie Qingning hiding by the window and peeping outside, and was stunned for a moment before he swept over and asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?" ”

"We might ...... was discovered. Xie Qingning didn't have time to turn around and explain to him, because a figure appeared on the roof opposite, the figure was very burly, wearing an inconspicuous linen robe, with white hair fluttering, looking very weird.

The air in the quiet night suddenly tightened, as if someone had cast a huge net to completely seal off the surrounding space, Xie Qingning felt a strong crisis, and unconsciously took a few steps back, almost knocking Lan Yongzhi to the ground.

"What's going on?" Lan Yongzhi felt her soft body hit his chest hard, the tip of his nose was suddenly haunted by a faint fragrance, his brain was uncontrollably dizzy for a moment before he reacted, and hurriedly held her shoulders to keep her balance before asking.

"Someone." As soon as Xie Qingning's words fell, the oppressive aura quickly approached, and the entire courtyard was enveloped by it, making it difficult to breathe.

Lan Yongzhi also felt that this terrifying aura was rapidly approaching, and his face couldn't help but change greatly.

At this moment, a gray figure appeared in Xie Qingning's field of vision, the person had been hiding in the alley on the first floor, and when the linen-robed man fell silently in the backyard, he rushed out of the darkness, and raised his hand to be a dark dark arrow, instantly blocking the person's way.

Xie Qingning secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that with Liu Yingjie here, it shouldn't be too difficult tonight. But why is the man in the hemp robe not afraid of the incense she just spilled, is he also a master in the medical way?

Just when she was distracted, the two people in the courtyard were already entangled together, the linen-robed man didn't seem to want to cause too much movement, and tried to use martial arts to fight, but Liu Yingjie didn't care about making the movement bigger, while dodging the opponent's attack, secretly released cold arrows, and threw a few fog bombs from time to time, so that the radius of a hundred miles was gradually covered by a thick white smoke.

Xie Qingning understood what he meant, and hurriedly woke up the sleeping Xie Huazhao, and the three of them quietly left through the front door, passing through the cobweb-like streets under the cover of night, and soon moved away from the range of the pawnshop.

"Who was that guy just now?" Xie Huazhao, who was still a little sleepy-eyed, was blown by the cold wind for a while before he was completely awakened, and he took a deep breath of the cold air of the late night before asking.

Of course, Xie Qingning knew who he was asking, but she couldn't tell Liu Yingjie's identity, so she had to shake her head and answer, "I don't know, that Mai man should have come to kill us, but he was stopped by another gray-robed man, that person should be the person sent by Xue Hongchen to protect us." ”

As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden sound of dense footsteps from the opposite street, and there were many people rushing towards the street where they were hiding.

Xie Qingning's expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly pulled Xie Huazhao and the others towards the alley behind him.

Looking at the wall in front of them, which was more than five meters high, the faces of the three of them turned pale at the same time, and before they could think about it, they turned around and ran towards the exit of the alley.

It's a pity that they have just escaped from the alley, and they have heard those footsteps approaching quickly, it sounds like they are less than two streets apart, and even half of the sky in front of them is lit up by flames, it seems that the Wu family has sent at least more than a hundred people to search for them in the city, this night in Dangyang City is destined to not be peaceful!

Xie Qingning and the three of them didn't think much about it, turned their heads and ran towards the empty street on the left.

However, they had just run less than 100 meters when they heard a dense sound of footsteps directly in front of them, and the light around them gradually brightened, and the people who searched for them had quickly narrowed the encirclement, and it seemed that it was impossible to escape!

Xie Huazhao, who was panting, simply stopped and said angrily, "If you don't run, just fight with them, isn't it just death, what is there to be afraid of?" ”

"Hua Zhao, this is Dangyang." Lan Yongzhi also had to stop and calmly remind him of this ruthless fact.

"So what? I don't believe that the Wu clan can block the sky of Dangyang City with one hand!"

Xie Qingning looked at the brighter and brighter sky around him, and immediately decided, "You guys hide first, the person they want to arrest is me, there is no need to bother you." ”

"Then how can it be ......," Xie Huazhao hadn't finished speaking, when he heard the sound of horses' hooves slowly coming from behind him, and the three of them turned around at the same time, only to see a wide black carriage slowly driving out of which lane, Xie Qingning's eyes fell on the face of the driver, his expression changed suddenly, and his pupils were slightly dilated, showing the incomparable shock and fear in his heart.

Xie Huazhao and Lan Yongzhi glanced at each other, and they couldn't guess who it would be, whether it was an enemy or a friend!

I only heard the driver of the car say in a low voice, "You still don't get in the car?" Are you waiting to be killed by the people of the Wu family? ”

Xie Qingning took a deep breath, his slightly pale face faintly revealed a few terrifying traces of blue light against the background of the night light, but after the knife's gaze swept over the hesitant Xie Huazhao and the others, he finally made up his mind and walked towards the carriage first.

She knew the person who was driving the car, it was Sun Li, the personal guard of the Six Princes, but it was self-evident whether they appeared in this place at this moment deliberately or accidentally.
