The Scheming of a Prosperous Age

  The wounded man let out a muffled cry of pain and hastily retreated two steps, then quickly raised his large knife and, together with the man beside him, charged forward to meet the attack.

  He was actually injured by a woman with no martial arts skills because of his own distraction. If this matter were to spread throughout the Jianghu, how could he still hold his head up in front of others?

  Thinking of this, his anger burned even more fiercely, and he only wanted to hurt the woman with his own hands, to avenge the grudge she had caused him.

  Two large knives emitting dazzling cold light were raised above her head, chopping down towards her. Jiǔ Yīn was terrified in her heart, but she still held up her dagger and desperately tried to block the closest knife.

  With a loud "thud", Jiuyin suddenly felt a shock in his tiger's mouth, and a severe pain in his chest.

  The large knife on her head knocked the dagger out of her hand and cut down to her skull without any resistance, the fierce wind from the knife struck her face, like a sharp blade cutting into flesh, it hurt so much that she almost cried.

  As the blade approached her face, her legs softened and her slender body was forced to retreat step by step under the powerful inner force. As she fell to the ground, she still wondered what would happen to the eighteen riders behind her after she fell.

  A flash of silver light streaked across the sky, and in the instant when the desperate person closed his eyes, he suddenly saw a faint green figure appear before him.

  When he appeared, the oppressive feeling that had been lingering around him suddenly dissipated, and the turbulent waves in his chest could no longer be suppressed. His thin lips parted slightly, and a mouthful of murky blood spurted out from the corner of his mouth.

  The big knife didn't hurt her, but the wind from the knife had already injured her meridians.

  But she still felt her way on the ground, finally finding the dagger that had been dropped to the ground. She then struggled to get up and stood behind Feng Chenye, holding the dagger in her hand, with a stubborn gaze fixed on the front. Her target was not those Qinglongmen people who were knocked down by Feng Chenye's palm, but a batch of black snakes that kept rushing forward.

  Suddenly, she felt a little moved in her heart. It seemed that as long as she was weak, the poison would dare to move forward a few more steps. If she was knocked down, these poisonous snakes would surely rush up together.

  Her legs felt a bit weak, she subconsciously reached out to grab onto Feng Chenye's clothes, before he could shake her off, panting and saying firmly: "They... are afraid of me, don't let me... fall down."

  Seeing him not resisting her touch, Jiuyin felt at ease and gradually leaned against his back.

  My body feels weak all over, if I don't find something to lean on, I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on.

  Fortunately, Feng Chenye still didn't show any resistance. Seeing the increasing number of people from Qinglongmen approaching, he ignored the pressing snake troops and sent out a palm wind that seemed gentle but could be fatal at any time, with his sleeves fluttering lightly.

  She felt a sudden pain in her legs, and they finally regained their sensation. By the time she came to herself, she had already been pulled into Feng Chenye's arms.

  She still held the dagger tightly, but she put all her weight on him, hurting his heart and meridians. At this moment, she was very tired, physically and mentally exhausted.

  As expected, there are nine sounds here, and the snake team doesn't dare to get close. Feng Chenye only deals with the people from Qinglongmen who come to provoke him, and the rest don't need to be bothered with.

  The Azure Dragon Gate had over a thousand people this time, but the poisonous snakes were countless. At first, the people in the convoy were trapped by the snake array and couldn't escape. After Feng Chenye and Zhan Qingcheng forced out the hidden Azure Dragon Gate members from the dense forest, those who controlled the snake troops also became disordered.

  The snake array gradually became chaotic.

  The people of Yiwangfu saw this and gradually killed a bloody path in the snake array, and the people of Qinglongmen were short-armed and immediately started fighting.

  The strong wind howled and blew against him nonstop. After a period of time as long as it takes to burn an incense stick, Jiu Yin gradually felt exhausted, his body went limp, and his two legs didn't have any strength left.

  The corners of her mouth were still oozing fresh blood, yet she was still desperately clutching at Feng Chenye's collar, her half-closed eyes fixed intently on the black gleam spreading across the ground.

  A wave of dizziness hit her and she swayed, almost falling to the ground.

  As she swayed, the snake team, which had originally dared not to come forward, actually moved a few steps closer.

  The dark starry eyes of Feng Chen Ye flickered slightly, his gaze cast downward at the woman who had already fallen into a semi-conscious state. His thin, cool lips finally cracked open to reveal a hint of warmth.

  "So fragile!"

  Although it was a reproachful remark, Jiu Yin somehow heard a hint of warmth in it.

  A thick palm landed on her waist, and in an instant, a warm breath emanated from his palm, seeping into her body bit by bit. Her scattered consciousness gathered again, she opened her slightly relaxed eyelids, and looked up at him with a glance.

  Feng Chenye continued to stare at the enemy in front of her, ignoring her completely.

  The cliff wind swept past him, lifting his head of almost night-colored black hair, a body with a clear and cold aura, an inexplicable charm, yet at the same time, also inspiring fear.

  She slowly withdrew her appreciative gaze and paid attention to the situation in front of her.

  They had already been far away from the green dragon, and those who approached were still countless black snakes.

  But because of the nine sounds, the black snake just blocked around and did not make further invasion.

  "You have many enemies." A soft voice suddenly sounded from the quiet cliff.

  Actually didn't want to talk to him, just afraid of falling asleep in that warm atmosphere, so casually found some topics.

  Of course, he may not necessarily understand himself.

  The wind and dust did not care about the surroundings, still blowing over the cliff wind, in front of them were the miserable cries of killing each other and the sound of swords colliding.

  Jiuyin took a deep breath, tried to stand up straight, and felt that he could support himself with his own strength. He then looked at Feng Chenye again and said calmly: "I'm fine, you can go back and help."

  She didn't notice her tone of voice when speaking, obviously just treating him as an ordinary partner, but Feng Chenye noticed.

  His eyes, darker than polished stone, flickered slightly as he gazed deeply at the woman who clutched a dagger, wary of the black snake's invasion. His lips, pressed together, suddenly curled up into a sly and charming smile.

  "Is this an order from Your Majesty?"

  A mere female slave, yet she dares to speak to him in such a tone.

  Who gave her the right to be so presumptuous in front of him?

  A faint voice successfully caught Jiu Yin's attention.

  She took a deep breath and thought for a moment before remembering what he had said to her.

  Order! Does she dare?

  But she couldn't bring herself to call herself a slave in front of him.

  She wasn't born a slave, and in the world she lived in for twenty years before, there was no distinction between aristocrats and commoners, let alone rich tycoons having the right to be called master by others.

  Her five fingers tightly grasped the hilt of the dagger, she just stared at the black snake in front of her, without saying a word.

  Feng Chen's dark eyes narrowed slightly as he looked down at her, and unexpectedly, this little woman actually dared to despise his power and ignore him!

  He was born accustomed to being looked up to by others; when had he ever been so neglected?

  But he didn't get angry, instead his thin lips curled up slightly, and a continuing evil glint flashed in the bottom of his eyes.

  In their line of sight, a figure in white emerged from the crowd and was walking towards them...

  The snake array is already in disarray, and the overall situation has also been decided. It's just that this little woman by my side still can't see things clearly.

  The large palm that landed on her waist slowly moved upwards, and before Jiuyin could react, it suddenly grasped her.

  Jiǔ yīn was startled by a strange sensation and looked down at himself in front of him, he simply couldn't believe his eyes.

  At this moment, a black snake might attack them at any time. With the great enemy in front of them, this shameless prince actually became rude to her.

  For a moment's distraction, she sank her gaze, and the bottom of her eyes quickly covered a layer of raging flames. Her idle small hand fell on his large palm, using force to try to push him away.

  This man has bullied her time and again, even if he were a king of a country, he cannot behave like this.

  "Let go! Let... Ah!"

  If she didn't know how vicious this prince was before, now she could see it clearly.

  The big palm in front of her not only didn't let go of her for half a second, but instead became even more reckless.

  Under the pressure, she stumbled and almost fell down.

  In front of it, a white figure sways gently in the wind...

  Why does she always have to appear in front of him in the most undignified posture? What he hates, is it her or Qing Cheng?

  Just now, I still felt a hint of warmth from him, but now it has all turned into a cold and desolate sea.

  "Stay back, there's a snake pit!" Ignoring her own wolf-like instincts, she saw the warrior swinging his sword to drive off the approaching enemy, and took a step towards her. She was startled, and suddenly shouted out loud.

  The current situation is not like before, he has always relied on his moves, but there is no sword aura in his sword moves. Moreover, he is good at using a large knife, not a sharp sword. In this case, facing a large number of venomous snakes, she fears that he will be injured by the snake's poison.

  It was unclear whether it was due to her warning or seeing the intimate behavior of the two people at the edge of the cliff, but War Equinox stopped in his tracks and actually turned around and returned to the war circle, ignoring them.

  It was clear that she had asked him not to come over, but now as she watched him turn and walk away, Jiuyin suddenly felt a pang of injustice.

  Her chest was instantly filled with a sense of grievance.

  "Women, how pretentious!" Feng Chenye let out a cold hum, suddenly releasing her. With a light tap of his foot, he turned and disappeared into the darkness in an instant.

  Having lost his support, Jiuyin almost fell to the ground, but seeing the dense black snakes still on the ground in front of her, she took a deep breath and forced herself to stand up, still guarding this side, no longer paying attention to the evil king's emotions that changed instantly.

  Women, indeed, are sentimental, she admitted.

  With Feng Chenye's arrival, the situation turned around in an instant. The people from Qinglongmen were clearly no match and some of them had already begun to flee in all directions.

  Jiuyin also clearly felt the black snake in front of him slowly retreating, the speed looked slow, but in just a blink of an eye, all the venomous snakes had retreated tens of meters away.

  The enemy fled, the snake array retreated, and the eighteen riders behind were still working hard to repair the broken bridge... A chaotic battle lasted for half a night, and finally subsided.

  The people of Yiwang Fu were cleaning up the scene, watching as body after body was carried away in the distance. It wasn't until then that Jiuyin started to feel a little scared.
