Chapter 188: Assassination

Seeing that Lian Yan's face was pale and anxious, Ji Ketian and Xiao Jin's intuition predicted that something must have happened.

"What's wrong?" They asked in unison, looking at Lian Yan with the same eager gaze.

Pointing in the direction of the door, Lian Yan replied, "There are assassins in the inn!" That's for us! He gasped for breath, just as he noticed that he had come to inform them soon.

Ji Ketian and Xiao Jin's expressions turned pale in an instant, those people moved so fast...... But they didn't have time to think.

"Lord and Princess, you go quickly!" Lian Yan pushed the two of them away, preparing to go out alone and fight alone.

But before he could go out, the assassin kicked the door open and appeared in front of them, and when he saw the three of them gathered together, he sneered: "Heh, it's only three, it's not enough to kill."

The assassin's tone was arrogant, and the companions who came one after another saw the three of them, and they all smiled lightly. Before they came, they thought that there must be thousands of troops around a prince, but it seems that this is not enough.

"Kill!" At this time, the assassins showed murderous intent, flashed their swords, and unceremoniously attacked the three of them.

Ji Ketian looked at the picture of more bullying and less and couldn't help but feel a lot worried about their escape, but before she could react, Xiao Jin and Lian Yan teamed up to deal with them, just because they had a common object to protect!

Their fight with the Assassins caused him to be deeply worried, and in the end, he couldn't get entangled, and Lotus Death sprinkled the last bag of "*" in his sleeve between them.

*The plan was successful,* so that they all retreated in fright, and hurriedly covered their noses, only to hear Lian Yan shouting: "Go!"

Before he could turn around, Xiao Jin had already taken Ji Ke's hand, and when he turned around and saw it, he could only follow them with gloomy eyes.

The Assassins watched them flee and did not dare to chase after them, only to slowly feel as if they had been fooled.

"Why* we don't feel it?" The Assassins noticed something was wrong, and cautiously tested the smell in the air, only to realize that all he had sprinkled was a packet of pepper.

The assassin felt very unhappy about being tricked, and shouted angrily, "Give me chase!"

The group of them chased along the direction of the trio's escape, and Ji Ketian was dragged by Xiao Jin to run around, and when he looked back at Lotus Death, he found that he was followed by a group of assassins.

"They're catching up." Ji Ketian reported to Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin also looked back at the group of assassins, and felt full of trouble, why did they stay ghostly? He could only speed up his pace.

However, before they could escape the Assassins, the Assassins caught up with them, and they had nowhere to hide but to fight.

"Heh, I really underestimated you, and then you will give me a good death!" The assassins flashed their swords again, stabbing at them with a fierce stab in the eye.

The sword hit Ji Ke directly, but fortunately, Xiao Jin reacted quickly, pulled her to the side gently, dodged the fatal sword, and then showed his sword and fought with them.

The sword and sword shadows, the fight was very intense, and a person who did not understand martial arts could only be protected by them, faintly worried about their success or failure.

With a "boom", the assassin's swordsmanship was faster than Xiao Jin's, and a fierce sword stabbed him on his left shoulder, blood oozing out, and it looked terrifying.

Ji Ke leaned forward to help him, looked at his wound in surprise, and said with concern: "Are you okay?"

Xiao Jin shook his head, but his old wounds on the battlefield had not healed, and now he had added new injuries, how could he not be in pain? I just put up with it.

After dealing with the assassins, Lian Yan suddenly looked back and found that Xiao Jin's shoulder had been pierced, and immediately stopped fighting and returned to them.

"How's it going, lord? You okay? Lian Yan looked at the steady stream of blood oozing out, and was a little at a loss.

However, just when they wanted to treat him, Xiao Jin grabbed the hands of the two of them and said helplessly: "Now the situation is tense, you two go first, leave me alone!"

He thought that now he was suffering from a new injury and an old injury, and if he stayed with them, he was afraid that he would become a burden, but he didn't want to be hurt by this.

But Ji Ke's temperament is also quite hard, and he turned his head and said, "I don't, I won't allow you to be abandoned."

Husband and wife share weal and woe, but now what does it mean to fly separately when disaster comes? Ji Ketian insisted on staying by his side.

Xiao Jin looked at Ji Ketian's distressed eyes, felt a little relieved in his heart, and patted her hand with a strong will, and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine, it's too dangerous here, you go first."

After speaking, he also raised his head and gave Lian Yan a look, motioning for him to let him take her away quickly, and Lian Yan was also worried about Ji Ke's safety, so he nodded.

Lian Yan and Xiao Jin persuaded Ji Ke to say: "Princess, it's too dangerous here, you don't know martial arts, if the prince doesn't have you by his side, he will be more at ease, and he won't have to worry about the future."

The implication is to remind her that she is a trouble. When Ji Ketian came to his senses, although he was helpless, he also nodded sadly.

"It's better for you to be careful in everything, if you escape, join us as soon as possible, and we'll see you in the imperial capital!" Before leaving, Ji Ketian left a message for Xiao Jin.

Then, the assassins swarmed in, and when Lian Yan saw it, he quickly pulled Ji Ke and dumped away, and Xiao Jin escorted them behind.

Ji Ketian looked back at Xiao Jin's back, his heart was painful, and he kept rushing forward desperately with tears, never being his trouble.

After running for about half an hour, they were relieved that they didn't see the Assassin chasing after them.

Ji Ketian was still faintly worried about Xiao Jin, and asked uneasily: "You said he ...... Something could happen to him? ”

Lian Yan comforted her: "The prince has learned martial arts since he was a child, and those assassins can't do anything to him, so you can rest assured."

She nodded, and suddenly thought of the agreement with Xiao Jin, so she hardened her heart, endured her worries, and then went to the imperial capital with Lian Yan.

A day later, in the imperial capital, Lotus and Ji Ke were walking in the market, and they couldn't see the road in the sea of people, so they could only move with them little by little.

Suddenly, a hand grabbed Ji Ketian, she was so frightened that her eyes widened, and she turned her head to meet Xiao Jin's deep eyes.

"Xiao Jin!" When Ji Ketian saw him, the uneasiness in his heart gradually disappeared, and only the joy of excitement remained.

Lotus also noticed him with the cry of the stinger, and was glad that he was still alive.

Xiao Jin fought with the assassins that day, rushed out of a bloody road, and came all the way to the imperial capital, but he didn't expect to meet them as soon as he entered the city.

The three of them eventually met in the Imperial Capital.
