Xiao Bai burst out from the carriage and directly pounced on the man in black. Seeing the sudden appearance of Xiao Bai, the man in black’s eyes were full of shock. However, he reacted quickly. When he saw Xiao Bai pounce, he immediately drew his long sword.

Directly aiming for Xiao Bai’s heart.

Jiang Peihuan, who was on the carriage, saw this scene and quickly shouted, “Xiao Bai, dodge!”

Xiao Bai, who was almost grown up, was fast. Seeing the man in black draw his sword, Xiao Bai jumped aside, not only dodging but also biting the man’s arm.

When bitten by Xiao Bai, the man in black grunted, but his sword directly targeted Xiao Bai again.

Jiang Peihuan, from the carriage, swung her long whip.

The whip wrapped around the man in black’s arm.

With his arm entangled by Jiang Peihuan’s whip, the man’s eyes showed a hint of gloom. With a strong pull, he dragged Jiang Peihuan off the carriage.

At this moment, he raised the sword in his hand again.

“Xiao Bai, come back!”

Upon hearing Jiang Peihuan’s voice, Xiao Bai rushed to her side.

The man in black glanced at the wound on his arm, his expression growing worse.

Turning to Jiang Peihuan, he coldly said, “Move aside if you don’t want to die!”

“Who sent you? The Great Empress Dowager?”

Jiang Peihuan stood in front of the carriage, her eyes coldly fixed on the man in black.

After hearing Jiang Peihuan’s words, the man showed a hint of surprise but soon regained composure.

He didn’t speak further but aimed his sword at Jiang Peihuan.

While engaging with the man in black, Jiang Peihuan’s eyes were filled with shock. ‘This man’s an expert in martial arts, and I’m no match for him.’

Yet, she showed no sign of backing down.

Fortunately, Xiao Bai was always by her side, assisting even though it couldn’t stop the man.

“I wanted to spare you, but if you seek death, I’ll oblige,” the man said, approaching Jiang Peihuan on the ground.

Just then, a cold wind blew, and Zhao Yong appeared.

He stood in front of Jiang Peihuan and said, “Queen, you go first. I’ll handle this!”

Jiang Peihuan hesitated, but Zhao Yong insisted, “Go!”

As he spoke, Zhao Yong charged at the man in black. Both were stunned upon clashing.

Their eyes met, and Zhao Yong was shocked.

Their eyes met, and Zhao Yong was shocked.

“My Queen, let’s go!”

At that moment, Rong Mo and Ye Xiao came to Jiang Peihuan’s side. Ye Xiao pushed her onto the carriage, and they rushed out of the temple, with Xiao Bai jumping on too.

Seeing the departing carriage, the man in black ordered, “Chase them!”

“Stop them!”

At Zhao Yong’s command, his men blocked the attackers.

Only when Jiang Peihuan’s carriage vanished into the darkness did Zhao Yong turn to the man in black, “Father?”

Hearing Zhao Yong, the man’s expression shifted, but he coldly responded, “You’ve mistaken.”

Without saying more, Zhao Yong, holding his sword, stood at the temple entrance. “Whatever the reason, I can’t let you pursue. 1 owe this to the Queen.”

Seeing Zhao Yong’s stance, the man in black smirked, “Even if you stop me, can you stop the others?”

Hearing this, Zhao Yong looked grim.

Without further words, he readied his sword again.

An hour later, many of the black-clothed men had fallen, and Zhao Yong’s side also suffered significant losses.

Looking at the man in black, Zhao Yong said to his men, “Let’s go!”

The man in black instinctively wanted to give chase but were stopped by another group appearing from behind, “Don’t chase them.”

“Master, what about the palace?”

“I’ll handle the Great Empress Dowager,” the man in black man said. As he removed his mask, it revealed the face of King Huainan.

Inside the carriage, Jiang Peihuan sat silently, her expression cold and indifferent.

Suddenly, the horse neighed loudly.

Then, the carriage came to an abrupt halt.

As Jiang Peihuan lifted the curtain, she saw black-clothed men blocking their path. They were not from the same group as before, but she deduced that their intentions were the same.

Upon seeing these men, Rong Mo drew his long sword.

Ye Xiao also quickly prepared to defend.

Standing in the carriage, Jiang Peihuan surveyed the scene. After a careful observation, she realized that the lead man in black was intently watching her.

Their eyes met, and a surge of animosity welled up within Jiang Peihuan. To her astonishment, it was Xiao Junhao.

Seeing her reaction, Xiao Junhao lunged towards her, his long sword aimed straight for her heart.

“Xiao Bai, protect Xiao Nanye!”

As Xiao Bai prepared to leap into action, It heard Jiang Peihuan’s command. It let out a howl, indicating it’s understanding.

Facing the attacking Xiao Junhao, Jiang Peihuan drew her sword. She had anticipated this for a long time.

In her previous life, it was only towards the end that Jiang Peihuan discovered Xiao Junhao’s martial arts skills, which were impressive. So, in this reincarnated life, she had trained even harder.

This was why, even when clashing with Xiao Junhao now, she was holding her own.

Seeing her impressive skills, Xiao Junhao’s eyes widened in shock.

While fighting, Jiang Peihuan’s moves were deadly. Indeed, she wanted to kill Xiao Junhao directly.

“You want to kill me that badly?”

Xiao Junhao blocked her sword, gripping her wrist tightly. With a twist, he pulled her close to him.

He looked down at her, his voice cold.

Without responding, Jiang Peihuan raised her leg and aimed a kick at his face.

Seeing her movement, Xiao Junhao instinctively stepped back.

The man looked down at the person in front of him and said coldly.

Hearing the voice in her ear, Jian Peihuan did not speak. Instead, she raised her leg and kicked back hard, straight at Xiao Junhao’s face.

Seeing Jian Peihuan’s actions, Xiao Junhao subconsciously took two steps back.

Jiang Peihuan swiftly turned away from him, drawing her whip. With force, she lashed it out.

The black whip struck Xiao Junhao’s face, tearing off his mask and revealing a face marked with blood..
