Xiu's idea was simple, she definitely couldn't fight more than a dozen enemies, so she could only control one of them first, and then negotiate with the others with that person's life. Not to mention that the entire convoy should be saved, at least let himself and Zoya be able to leave.

As long as you leave their control, in your own capacity, you can easily get help from the hall.

However, the first step in her plan failed. The man who opened the door easily grabbed Xiu's hand, and with a slight twist, the dagger in Xiu's hand slipped into the man's hand. At this moment, a huge sense of despair surged into Xiu's heart, and she knew that once her sneak attack failed, then there would be no chance next.

She closed her eyes and waited for the judgment of fate.

"It's been a long time. A rather familiar voice sounded in Xiu's ears, "When will you play with knives again?" ”

Xiu was stunned, this voice didn't seem to be those robbers. So she opened her eyes and saw that her dagger was playing with a brilliant knife flower in the man's hand, and the man was smiling at her, and the smile carried the memory of Xiu's heart.

"Ian?" she subconsciously called out the name of the person who came. At this moment, the dagger came out of Ian's hand, slashed a silver fox in the air, and landed at Xiu's feet. The rope that bound the legs snapped at the sound.

"The rope below is not untied, and the movement will definitely be half a beat slower. Ian said lazily, "No hunter should ever make such a mistake. ”

"I'm not a hunter. ”

"But I am. After Ian said this, he turned and left, "Deal with the others, I don't want to open the door from room to room." ”

Xiu wanted to catch up, but Ian's last words reminded her. She was not the only one in the carriage, and Zoya, who was blindfolded, didn't understand what was going on, so she hid in the corner and shivered. Xiu hurriedly went to untie the restraints on her body, and the little girl who regained her light hid in Xiu's arms and sobbed, Xiu gently patted her shoulder and said, "Don't worry, it's okay, we are all rescued." ”

"Sister Xiu, is the person who just saved us your friend?" Zoya asked, "Who is he?"

"Who ......?"

Xiu remembered that day two years ago, when everyone in the Alchemy City was immersed in the joy of successfully hunting the Dragon King, the hero who had hunted the Dragon King left Alder silently alone. At that time, he was covered in scars, and his back when he left was lonely and lonely.

Xiu touched Zoya's head and said, "He's a very powerful person. ”

"Can he help us, then?"

"Yes, surely. Xiu said firmly, "He can do everything." ”

......

When Zoya, who left the carriage, saw the corpses all over the ground outside the carriage, she realized that what Xiu had just said was not to comfort her. Blood stained the road beneath his feet, but the sticky smell was carried away by the wind and rain. The man who had done this sat alone in the carriage at the front, looking up and not knowing what he was looking at.

Zoya had never seen such a person, obviously his back was so small under the rain curtain, but the pressure was so great. It was as if there was a small mountain floating in the air chest, and she was almost out of breath.

Xiu patted her on the shoulder, "You go and get the others out." ”

Zoya then remembered what she should do, and hurriedly turned around and ran towards the carriage behind.

After taking Zoya away, the shock in Xiu's heart calmed down slightly. In fact, these corpses shocked her no less than Zoya. Ian was just one person to get rid of so many people, and it didn't take him long, it was only a few minutes from the time Xiu heard the commotion to the time it calmed down. And Ian actually solved dozens of robbers in the prime of life in these few minutes?

How the hell did he do it?

Xiu remembered that a year earlier, her brother had told her that the boy who had shot Naga, the Dragon King of Fire, had been crowned the new Lord of Thorns by the Hall. At that time, the shock in her heart was even stronger than it is now. Thinking of this, Xiu Cai calmed down slightly.

She couldn't think of Ian as the rookie hunter she had been two years ago. Now he is the Lord of Thorns, the most powerful human on this Big 6.

"What are you thinking?" Ian said suddenly, "Are you afraid of me?"

Xiu took a deep breath and walked over to him, "Why am I afraid of you? ”

"I'm not afraid of my best. Ian said, "There are so many people who are afraid of me. ”

Xiu didn't quite understand what Ian meant, but she could feel the loneliness in the latter's words. Xiu didn't know what Ian had been through in the past two years, but there was no doubt that it must have been painful and difficult.

The reason why the Lord of Thorns is enshrined as the first king, and the name has been passed down from generation to generation, is precisely because the road to becoming the "strongest" must be full of thorns.

Xiu was a little confused, she didn't know what she could say to Ian. Can flowers that grow in sunny and warm soils have a common language with grasses that live in extremely cold and frozen soils?

She hesitated for a long time, and only asked, "What's wrong with your eyes?"

That's the question she wants to ask the most. She had never seen that human eyes could be red, which was the color of blood, and the color of fire.

"Something happened. Ian said casually, "You can understand it as a disease. ”

"Are you going to get sick too?"

"I've been sick for a long time. "It's been almost twenty years." ”

Silent. Xiu didn't know how to talk anymore, and asked what the disease was? She thought to herself that Ian didn't seem to be a chatterbox, not as good as his companion, by the way, speaking of his companion......

"How are Dennis and Nicole?" Xiu asked with a smile, "I heard that they got married, what a surprise, and I haven't ...... for a long time"

Xiu's smile froze little by little. She saw Ian's hand on the roof of the carriage, and he had made a deep handprint. She looked at Ian's face, and although the latter was still expressionless, she could feel the oppressive aura that permeated the air, almost making people almost breathless.

"Ian. Xiu called Ian's name softly, "What's wrong with you?"

The oppressive aura died down, and Ian remained silent during the entire process. Just then, a scream came from behind. Xiu subconsciously turned around and saw a person with a hideous face, strangled by Zoya's neck.

"I just want to go!" the man yelled at Ian, "let me go!"
