Chapter 7: If it weren't for the speed, I would have lost my first kiss.
The Fox Shadow Guards stood in opposition to them, and they were clearly the elite among Zhong Liyu's elite troops.
They spared no expense in dealing with this inexperienced young girl.
But looking at He Yuhuan beside her, she didn't seem afraid at all.
But even with her high level of magic, she couldn't withstand such a relentless attack from so many people.
Zhongli Yueluo looked in the direction of the main road and took two steps back.
He glanced at He Yuhuan again: "Yuhuan, run!"
He Yuhuan's eyes darted around. She had eaten countless people like these before, so why should she be afraid?
But Zhongli Yueluo had already taken off running.
He Yuhuan, without understanding the situation, chased after them, and the ten Fox Shadow Guards also followed suit.
Finally, they were stopped on the main road. Since things had come to this point, they had no choice but to take action.
Now that Zhongli Yueluo has no magical artifacts, she is no match for them in hand-to-hand combat.
He Yuhuan sensed Zhongli Yueluo's worry and handed her one of his golden maces.
Despite its hollow appearance, Zhongli Yueluo almost couldn't hold onto the golden mace; it must weigh at least a hundred pounds!
Gather all your strength and hold the hammer in your hand.
Staring at the Fox Shadow Guards, they formed an encirclement and gradually approached.
It's unclear who threw the spinning scimitar first, but He Yuhuan swung his hammer and knocked it back at them.
The force was so great that the curved blade embedded itself directly into the chest of the Fox Shadow Guard!
"Another brain to eat." A greedy look appeared in her eyes.
Zhongli Yueluo finally understood that the purpose of the golden mace in her hand was to open up skulls!
After several rounds of fighting, He Yuhuan was completely unharmed.
Zhongli Yueluo's body was covered in bloody cuts from the curved blade. He Yuhuan glanced back at her, her eyes blazing with anger.
"You dare to bleed her! I wouldn't even drink a little more than that! I'm going to eat your brains today!"
With a flick of her wrist, the golden mace that Zhongli Yueluo was holding flew into her hand, and when she picked it up, it felt as if it weighed only a few ounces.
He swung the sledgehammer in circles, creating a column of wind.
Her face was shimmering with multicolored light, as if she was about to unleash a powerful spell!
Those Fox Shadow Guards were all injured in the battle just now, so they couldn't withstand a few swings of her hammer.
One of the fox shadow guards outside the whirlwind circle was very cunning. He took a curved sword and flew towards He Yuhuan's weak point.
Seeing this, Zhongli Yueluo knew something was wrong, picked up the knife that had fallen to the ground, and stepped forward to block it.
He barely blocked the attack, but his shoulder was also cut. This distracted He Yuhuan, and his powerful move, which he was about to unleash, was interrupted.
Several wounds were also cut on his body, all emitting purple aura; this was a special fox technique of their fox clan.
Zhongli Yueluo felt a little embarrassed that she had hindered He Yuhuan's healing.
How could they have had the nerve to doubt them in the first place?
"Run!" It wasn't actually that far from the Heartless River.
As long as they return to He Yuhuan's home turf, those who are chasing them will not dare to act recklessly.
After traveling for a long time, the Fox Shadow Guards pursued them relentlessly, but were eventually stopped again.
Zhongli Yueluo felt a burning and painful sensation in her shoulder wound, while He Yuhuan's colorful feather robe was also torn to shreds.
Gongshu Liangliang watched from the shadows, thinking that he should also go out and save the day.
If the torture had been inflicted even more severely, the marriage proposal would certainly not have been able to explain the numerous scars covering her body.
A long, red-clad procession approached from not far away.
Zhongli Yueluo thought there was hope, wondering if it was because He Yuhuan had drunk her blood and had some kind of telepathic connection.
At the same time, he took off running into the long queue.
Gongshu Liang secretly glanced at the clan emblem and realized it was the Zheng clan's marriage selection procession. He couldn't confront them directly.
The people at the front of the line saw that it was the same girl in tattered blue clothes again.
And then there was Miss He, who seemed a bit silly on the river, darting into their group as if fleeing for her life.
Several masked men in black followed behind, their menacing presence filled with murderous intent.
It was clear that the Fox Shadow Guards were about to clash with the Zheng Clan.
Without saying a word, Zhongli Yueluo immediately climbed into the most conspicuous sedan chair.
Because of the speed, it pounced directly into the arms of the person in the sedan chair.
Yan Ruoyu held her Xuan Bone Fan between her lips and Zhongli Yueluo's.
If he hadn't been so fast, his first kiss would have been stolen by this girl!
Just as the Zheng Clan outside were about to engage in a fierce battle with the Fox Shadow Guard, they heard a whistle.
It was Gongshu Liang secretly signaling them to retreat.
Zhongli Yuelu didn't even look at who was in the sedan chair before grabbing his collar and sitting on his lap.
He strained his ears to listen for any sound outside, then peered out through the curtain.
Everything seemed normal with the group; the Fox Shadow Guard who came to kill her had left.
That's true. Without her, how could this marriage selection process continue?
They probably want to cripple her so she can't take care of herself, so they can keep him firmly in their grasp.
"Young lady, how much longer are you going to hold onto me!"
Blood soaked into his red robe. Zhongli Yueluo recognized the voice so well. She turned her head and realized that this was her future husband!
"Young Master Yan, it's been a long time."
Feeling extremely awkward, she loosened his clothes and slowly moved her buttocks off his lap.
Seeing his once magnificent clothes now stained with blood, she remembered that she herself had been stabbed several times, and the wound on her shoulder was still bleeding profusely.
The guards outside asked warily, "Young Master, should we arrest this man?"
"It's alright, our group is large, let's not linger here, let's keep moving forward."
"Who are you to the Zhongli royal family? Why are the Fox Queen's Shadow Guards hunting you down? This golden deer token of yours is a symbol of the royal family."
As he spoke, a golden deer token appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Zhongli Yueluo touched her waist, only to find it empty; it really was hers that had fallen.
Just then, the voices of guards sounded outside again, and judging from their breathing, they seemed to have just returned.
He didn't know what had just happened: "Young Master knows the identity of the owner of that deer token."
Yan Ruoyu stared at Zhongli Yueluo, as if to say, "Are you going to tell me yourself, or listen to your subordinates' report?"
Before Zhongli Yuelu could speak, the guard outside replied, "It is Zhongli Yuelu, the second princess of the Yaolu tribe, who is also the person the young lord is choosing for marriage."
A slight change in his expression revealed that the second princess of the Medicine Deer Clan was quite different from the rumors. Wasn't she supposed to be a fool?
Zhongli Yuelu gave an awkward smile, but her lips twitched due to the pain from her wound.
Now that she already knew his identity, and since they would be family in the future anyway, she moved closer to Yan Ruoyu.
Yan Ruoyu turned her body slightly to the side, her eyebrows furrowed, her eyes cold as she stared into her bright, clear eyes, which resembled a pool of autumn water.
Although the girl appeared innocent, there seemed to be something in her eyes that he couldn't understand.
He put away the Xuan Gu Fan, sat up very straight, and began to ponder his own little scheme.
At least he held the initiative; he was always one step ahead of the Wind Spirit Ghost Clan.
Before he could speak, Zhongli Yueluo stroked his hair and placed her hand on his collar.
"I've never seen you this close before, you're so beautiful."
