His Rui

The silence forests surrounded the carriage sitting stilled on the road.

The deep black eyes examined every corner like a hawk.

No one came out.

It didn't take Xi Ying even a moment of hesitation to look at his shadow guard, An Ping and sign him that they would start this battle.

No …actually the battle had started already when one of them killed the coachman driving the carriage.

Now what they had to give was a very quick and unforgettable response to that start.

It was not long that An Ping jumped towards the tree …where he was sure that one of them was hiding himself behind very nicely. However, he couldn't save himself from An Ping's sharp eyes. After all, Xi Ying's shadow guards were trained by him.

To smell the danger from far away something they were qualified with.

The fight started soon.

Just when An Ping jumped on the tree and kicked the hiding shadow guard down the tree, many more came out.

An Ping still looked very calm.

An Ping jumped down from the tree as he unsheathed his sword that pointed down and soon pierced the shadow guard's stomach who was lying on the ground before he could even try to step away.

A few steps away, Xi Ying killed two shadow guards at the same time and fought with third one.

They were many.

Xi Ying thought as he looked at the increasing number of shadow guards just in a moment.

His gaze went to the carriage as he used the third shadow to guard himself against the sword that was coming towards him.

There also, An Si was fighting with a few shadow guards alone.

Xi Ying's eyes narrowed a little for a second.

There was another carriage behind the carriage in which Li Rui was sitting. In that carriage, Li Rui's maid was sitting with the gifts that Li Rui's mother especially prepared for her daughter.

However, the reason behind the annoyance in Xi Ying's eyes was something else.

It was the figure whom he could see getting out of the carriage even though he was far away.

Li Hua was getting out of the carriage.

From her eyes that looked constantly towards the carriage, Li Rui was sitting inside, Xi Ying knew that she wanted to go to her mistress. However, the maids' considerate thoughts and worry for his wife didn't make Xi Ying happy at all at this moment.

Didn't she understand that she could be used as a great bait by the people who want to harm her mistress?

The annoyance in Xi Ying's eyes increased but it soon was replaced with panic when Xi Ying saw a figure suddenly jumping out from the other side of the road.

Xi Ying instantly glanced at An Ping.

He was managing very well here.

And after that, Xi Ying immediately flew towards Li Hua.

It was only when Xi Ying reached there, he realized that why he couldn't sense the shadow guard who jumped from the other side of the road.

The shadow guards an expert martial artist …the same level as him.

Only then did he understand that it was a trap.

All other shadow guards hid on one side of the road to distract his attention while the strong one was hidden on the other side.

The most threatening person was the shadow guard in front of his eyes because except Xi Ying no present at the moment could defeat him.

Xi Ying cursed inside his mind as he understood everything during the moment he flew towards Li Hua.

But no matter, how fast he flew, the other shadow guard was close to Li Hua and hence caught her before Xi Ying.

"Ahhh…"

A very loud shout escaped from Li Hua's lips as the shadow guard held him against his body in a very tight and firm hold.

Xi Ying's eyes flashed with panic immediately and he signed Li Hua to shut her mouth who was already looking at him with wide eyes when he reached on the other side of the road.

Li Hua perhaps understood why he was saying that and instantly shut her mouth.

However, the work was done.

It didn't take look for the curtains of the carriage to slide sideways and a figure soon stepped out of the other carriage.

Xi Ying who had been looking at the carriage from the corner of his eyes shouted immediately.

"Rui, go inside."

However, somewhere he also knew that Li Rui now would not go inside. After seeing her maid in danger, she will not step back.

And sure enough, she stepped forward in their direction as An Si who was fighting with shadow guards…doing his best to keep them away from her looked at his master.

He knew that Li Rui was pregnant.

He just wanted his master's permission to take away Li Rui from there. After that, he knew that his master was very able to manage everything here.

The idea seemed quite tempting to Xi Ying when he saw An Si looking at himself.

After keeping Li Rui away from here, he would be able to concentrate more on the current situation.

So he blinked his eyes indicating An Si to take Li Rui away.

An Si sighed in relief and hurriedly killed the shadow guards who were trying to approach Li Rui. With every dead shadow guard, he stepped closer to the still-standing Li Rui who was coldly looking at the man holding Li Hua.

"My Lady"

An Si whispered in a low voice when he was behind Li Rui.

"My Lady, I need to take you away from here. Master will manage everything here."

Li Rui didn't respond to An Si's words. She was still looking at the shadow guard who was holding Li Hua. Seeing her cold eyes fixed on himself, he seemed to have found some fun and raised his eyebrows questioningly.

When he saw that Li Rui still didn't move her eyes away, he laughed loudly and the next thing Li Rui heard was Li Hua's loud scream.

"Ahhhhh…"

Her hand behind her body was twisted so hard that Li Hua found it hard to bite her lips and keep the shouts of pain within herself.

And at that moment, Li Rui's eyes fixed on the shadow guard only became colder and she said calmly

"Leave the girl.. Isn't your target Lady Li? That person is me."
