Chapter 170: A belated confession

In the vast world, the two of them faced hundreds of guards, Xia Qian's heart was like a boulder, and he didn't even dare to get angry in a panic.

Feeling the arm around her tighten, she thought he would take her in his arms again and fly away dozens of feet away, but he didn't, he just flew into the air and inspected the surroundings.

When he landed, he whipped the horse's ass hard, and flew over to fight the guards.

Xia Qian lay on his horse's back and stared at the man with his eyes firmly on him, watching him being besieged by hundreds of people, until a group of archers rushed over and drew their bows and opened arrows at him.

"Don't-"

Before she could finish her sentence, she heard a scream from the horse, which flew over a boulder and rushed towards the cliff.

"Ahh

She screamed in panic, thinking that she would fall into a cliff and fall half to death, but she didn't expect to see a group of iron horsemen in mid-air, and they were caught by the person in front.

The man was in blue armor and white clothes, with a cold and handsome face, hugged her for a moment, spun around in the air for a few times, and then entered her embedding into her arms, and slowly fell to the ground.

A similar scene had occurred a year ago, when she was assassinated and lunged at him, and he grabbed her neck so hard that her cold face and murderous gaze frightened her into missing two wisps of soul.

Now, people are the same people, but what has changed is the look on their faces and the actions that greet her.

She wanted to take another look at the look on the man's face, but her mind was groggy and unconscious.

She was awakened by a nightmare in which the man in black, covered in blood, still held her tightly behind her, and a group of archers drew their bows and opened their arrows, and silver arrows flew towards his heart like raindrops.

"Huo Zun—"

Xia Qian sat up suddenly, and when he saw Huo Zun with blue armor on the side of the bed, he remembered that the iron-faced night was not him.

"I broke out in a cold sweat, and I was frightened a lot today, what happened? Why did you fall off a cliff? Huo Zun looked at her with a serious face.

She looked around and found herself lying in an inn, dark outside the window, faintly visible in the faint moonlight.

"Nothing, the horse I rode was frightened."

There are so many things that happened today, she didn't want to say more, and she didn't want to say more.

The identities of their master and servant could not be told to him, and the mysterious man in black could not even tell him how to mention it to him. Besides, she and him have long been separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, and there is nothing to tell.

Xia Qian tugged at the quilt and turned over after lying down.

"What about Bai Bing and Yu Nuan?"

Hearing this, Xia Qian sighed in her heart, and she was so frightened that she forgot about the two maids.

When she turned around, she looked at him with panicked eyes, and said worriedly, "I...... We got separated, and I don't know where they were. ”

Seeing a figure flashing outside, Huo Zun replied unhurriedly: "Oh, I'll send someone to find it!" ”

Looking at his back, Xia Qian's uneasy heart regretted it again.

In case the people he sent found out that Bai Bing and Yu Nuan were strong in martial arts and hidden from the depths, what would he think and kill them all?

Is there a choice? Who are those men in black, sent by Bai Bing's brother? Did they save them too?

Xia Qian curled up in the quilt, thinking over and over again.

"Did you find out? Who are those black-clad people? Huo Zun stood in another guest room and asked the person in front of him.

"Listening to our informants who stayed in Nankang, like people in the rivers and lakes, their martial arts are very good. The strange thing is that they did not kill the killer, but only covered the escape of one of them and the young lady. ”

Huo Zun looked at the hazy moonlight above his head, and asked the man, "Have you found the two maids beside the young lady?" ”

"Not yet, there are so many pursuers today, maybe ...... It's gone! ”

"Keep looking!" He commanded, turned and walked out of the house.

The sound of heavy footsteps came, and Xia Qian shrank into the quilt and pressed her face tightly against the pillow.

She felt the wooden bed sink to the ground, and she knew that he was sitting on the edge of the bed, breathing involuntarily slow.

Huo Zun looked at the thin figure in front of him, and his eyebrows couldn't help but screw.

"Don't be afraid, it's safe."

She didn't say anything, just silently moved towards the bed. Because she heard the sound of the other party's shoes falling to the ground, she felt him pull the north foot next to the bed she made.

"You...... When did you learn to pick up a horse? How did you get separated from the two of them? ”

Knowingly, he asked with a serious face, although she couldn't see the expression on his face with her back to him, even though he knew that it was not appropriate for her to ask these questions in shock. But thinking that this might be her best chance to speak to her, he continued to ask cautiously.

"I don't know how to ride, that's why I scare the horses silly. It was probably when it ran around that we got separated! ”

The answer was full of loopholes, and she regretted it as soon as she said it. The situation of those three people made her more and more panicked the more she thought about it, and she didn't have the heart to think about his words, and she didn't have the heart to answer.

She was silent on the last few simple questions.

"What do you want to eat?" He looked at her silently and asked softly.

"If you don't eat, I'll sleep!"

I haven't eaten for a day, but I really can't eat at the moment, not because I'm not hungry, but because my heart and stomach are churning badly after a day of upside down, and her mind is full of bloody pictures, not to mention that she can't eat it, even if she eats it, she will definitely vomit it.

He knew that she was scared stupid today, so he didn't ask any more questions, and lay down next to her with his clothes closed.

"Don't be afraid, I won't put you in danger again!"

When Huo Zun said this, she remembered a question - why is he here? And with his battalion of 100 horsemen? Is it here to pick her up?

This string of questions swirled in her mind for a long time, and finally they all fell on the same point, the emotion that she could no longer love him.

The reality is so ridiculous, obviously in love, but being told that there is no past, no present, and no future, just coming out of the pain heartbreakingly, but having to be tied up with that person.

"Come home with me, in today's situation, you can only be safe if you stay in Qinglong City, I will protect you and prevent you from being in danger."

"After finding Yu Nuan and Bai Bing, if you don't hurt them, I can go back with you, but ......"

She didn't go on with what she was saying, because she suddenly realized that she was making a deal of negotiation with him, and she was making herself a bargaining chip.

What a ridiculous reality, when she fell off the cliff, it was obvious that he saved her, and she even made herself a bargaining chip to negotiate terms with him. What qualifications does she have? Not all the time!

Xia Qian smiled self-deprecatingly, and swallowed the next few words back into her stomach: But I won't love you anymore.

"But what?" He leaned over against her back.

Her back stiffened, her fingers slowly closed, and she replied in a low voice, "Nothing! ”

"Between you and me, you don't have to see each other!"

Huo Zun said and wrapped her into his arms through the quilt, feeling his body curl up suddenly, his arm stiffened, slowly moved his arm and turned around to look out of the window.

The moonlight was hazy, reflected in his cool eyes, a little more clear and clear.

From the moment he saw her, he felt his hollowed-out heart coming back one by one, and when he heard his name called in his dream, his heart jumped even harder.

At this moment, after being numb for many days, he already has joy, sadness, and throbbing.

"Xia Qian, I love you!" He smiled happily, turned around, and hugged her tightly.
