Di Ronghua’s face changed as he violently pushed her.
A feathered arrow just shot through the place where they had just been standing, and the beautiful flowers were immediately zapped in all directions!
Su Miao and Di Ronghua glanced at each other, both seeing shock in each other’s eyes.
However, before they could come and wait for them to remind the crowd to be careful, they heard a shouted, “There are assassins, protect us!” suddenly coming from the crowd.
Screams and sounds of fleeing all mixed together at once.
The ladies and many of the court ministers did not know martial arts, so even though the officials and soldiers were pouring in at every level, there was a steady stream of assassins dressed as boys, and then there was a second wave of black-clad assassins.
Di Bei Yu did not know when he had already arrived in front of her, and with him were several guards, the man frowned and sized her up, “Are you alright?”
Su Miao immediately shook her head, “It’s okay, are there enough people brought out today?”
“Well.”
“You quickly go and take a look …… at the Empress Dowager.”
But before she had time to exit those two words behind her, she noticed that the Empress Dowager’s side was protected by a large group of people, there would not be a problem. However, in the next second, she saw the man staring intently at a certain direction, his face suddenly changing.
By the time she looked over, the man beside her only had time to hastily leave a sentence, “Protect Consort Xian!”
All the people who had just surrounded the emperor stayed behind to protect her, favouring the man who had just been by her side to leave alone, having quickly gone to Consort Liang who was surrounded by assassins in the direction she had just seen.
Perhaps it was because the sunlight was too harsh, set off by the surface of the various reflective swords and knives that were dancing about, so it seemed particularly harsh, so much so that her heart also contracted slightly.
What was she thinking at that moment?
Oh, why would Empress Liang, whose body was so weak that she would faint at any time, come so far away to see the flowers?
“What are you froze for!”
A low voice suddenly came from beside her, pulling back her thoughts.
Su Miao twisted her head to look over, a face covered in coldness was reflected in her eyes, she was surprised and said, “How …… did you get here?”
She had never seen such a cold expression on Cheng Ying’s face before, and as far as she could remember, the few times they had met, he had been smiling.
“The assassins were sent by the Jedi Palace, and they are all coming for you.”
Meeting her shocked gaze, the man spoke faster and faster, “I know I can’t take off my suspicion, but I’m no longer a member of the Jedi Palace, so even if you want to suspect me you should get out of danger first.”
As expected, the moment he finished saying this, all the cold arrows all reversed their direction and shot in her direction.
Su Miao’s face changed.
“Don’t worry, you can’t die.”
The man’s words just fell, has blocked in front of her, holding a long sword in his hand, blood splattered in all directions between killing and decisive, such as the bloodthirsty Cultivator God in hell, but on the other hand, he was wearing a white brocade robe and seemed to have fallen into the mortal world of the exiled immortals.
Su Miao clenched his teeth, suddenly snatched a sword from the hands of the assassin beside him and joined the battle.
Out of the corner of her eye, she just swept over the bright yellow figure not far away, and for the first time, she really saw that his martial arts was so strong.
But at this moment, there was no time to be distracted, and she quickly used her sword to separate those arrows from the rain.
At the same time, countless thoughts flashed through Su Miao’s mind.
If it was really as Cheng Ying had said, since the Extinction Palace had organised a group meeting, it shouldn’t be so bad as to make a big fuss because she had taken away a single blade of grass.
But other than that, she also had no dealings with the Extinction Palace, so why would she risk being hunted down by the entire royal family to assassinate her?
