Since Adela's father has been in poor health, the family affairs have fallen on the shoulders of Vera and Adela. Now that Vera has died in the battle, the elite of the Salanaar family are all under the Iron Fist Castle. The family was wiped out, and the Seremis family was eyeing the edge of the family territory. If Adela could not rush back to take charge of the overall situation, then the entire family might collapse. Even if she turned back to kill Vivian now, it would only be a mistake. It's just a breath of bad breath, it's insignificant to the overall situation.
Thinking of this, Adela clamped the stirrups hard, letting the spikes on the inside of the stirrups go deeper into the belly of the war horse. Adela had always loved the war horse she was riding on as much as her life, and she was reluctant to even whip the whip. But now, Adela has abandoned everything. She has only one thought in her mind, which is to escape back, accumulate strength, and make a comeback.
The crisp sound of horse hooves floated on the road. Adela watched the trees on both sides of the road quickly retreating. She felt more and more sad in her heart. She ran away in embarrassment. Her brother, who had always loved her, couldn't even get back his body. What's more, Or, even if he returns to his family, he will still face a greater crisis.
The rapid sound of horse hooves came from behind, and Adela turned her head to look. She was riding Juechen from a distance. It was Vivian. When she saw that Vivian was alone, the one in Adela's heart The thought became hot again: "Capture Vivian, or kill her, and then exchange my brother's body."
"Exchange my brother's body with Vivian, exchange my brother's body with Vivian." This idea completely filled Adela's brain. At this time, her horse was also running slower and slower due to the injury. So Adela jerked the reins in her hand, and the horseman stood up, let out a long hiss, and stood up.
Adela sat astride the war horse and looked at Vivian who was getting closer and closer to her. Her right hand subconsciously went to pull out her long sword, but missed it. Only then did she remember that she had already taken the long sword with her. She was given a guard. How could she go back and fight Vivian without weapons? Moreover, Adela also knew that her martial arts skills were only slightly better than Vivian's. In a life-and-death fight, this slight difference could not determine the outcome at all. ,
Adela felt a little anxious, but she quickly took out a crossbow from the pocket on the back of the horse. Adela held the crossbow in her hand as if she had found a treasure, then slowly tightened the mechanism and pulled a crossbow. The crossbow was placed on it. Vivian didn't seem to see what Adela was doing. She still rushed forward on her horse.
Adela waited until Vivian entered the range of the hand crossbow, then used her left hand as a support to set up the flat end of the hand crossbow. After taking a slight aim, she pulled the trigger without hesitation. The short crossbow arrow " It shot out with a swish, hitting Vivian's chest impartially.
Vivian let out a scream, fell off the horse, and fell heavily to the ground. The war horse she was riding ran a few steps after losing its owner and then slowly stopped. Ad When La saw that she had hit the target with one blow, she felt a lot more relaxed. She was afraid that Vivian's men would rush over and her success would be defeated, so she ran toward the place where Vivian fell.
Adela jumped off the horse, pulled out the dagger, and approached Vivian cautiously. But at this moment, there was another sound of horse hooves in the distance. This time it was Ryan who came over. Adela When she saw Ryan's unforgettable face again, her pupils shrank for a while. However, at this moment, Vivian, who was lying on the ground, suddenly moved, and she rushed towards Adela with a huge impact. The force directly knocked Adela to the ground,
Adela knew something was wrong. She fell to the ground, but she clenched the dagger in her hand and stabbed Vivian's lower abdomen. She knew that Vivian's armor did not protect that part, but Adela's hand As soon as she moved, Vivian guessed her intention. Vivian's hand grabbed Adela's wrist much faster than Adela, and then slammed it on the ground.
Adela was in pain and couldn't hold the dagger in her hand, so it fell out. Adela picked up her free left hand and punched Vivian, and Vivian also used her right fist to meet it. The left fists aimed at Adela collided hard together. Adela felt a sharp pain in the bones of her hand and let out a mournful scream.
Vivian took advantage of the situation and grabbed Adela's left arm and twisted it back violently, trying to subdue her. Of course, Adela couldn't be captured without restraint. She also tried her best to fight against Vivian. Originally, Adela and Vivian's power is almost the same, but today, before joining the battle, Vivian was blessed by Ryan with multiple magics such as "The Power of the Barbarian Bull" and "The Sensitivity of the Civet Cat", which completely suppressed Adela in terms of strength. So Adela only felt severe pain in her arm, and was involuntarily pushed behind her by Vivian.
As soon as Vivian succeeded, she immediately put her body weight on Adela to prevent her from breaking away. At the same time, she held Adela's left hand firmly with one hand and pulled out a stick from her boot with the other hand. Putting the cold edge of the dagger on Adela's face,
Until this time, Vivian breathed a sigh of relief. She said to her captive in a teasing tone: "You should be more honest. I don't want the majestic Saranal Rose to turn into a hateful witch."
"Kill me, Vivian, kill me quickly." Adela shouted loudly in anger, and she didn't care about her beauty, and even touched her face hard to the sharp knife. Vivian was startled by Adela's action. She quickly retracted the dagger and pressed Adela firmly with both hands.
Vivian felt much more relaxed when she saw Ryan getting closer and closer to her. Looking at Adela struggling underneath her, Vivian suddenly felt that fate was so magical. In a few years, In the past, the prosperous Adela was not something a mercenary from a humble background like Vivian could look up to. But today, the two of them have reversed each other's positions. Adela has become his prisoner, and he, Then he became the lord of the Emilio family,
Ryan, who changed everything, rode up to Vivian's side. He tightened the reins and stopped the horse. After seeing Vivian firmly suppressing Adela, Ryan shook his head and said : "You are so brave, you actually chased me here all by yourself."
"Oh, why are you still standing? Why don't you help me quickly?" Vivian rolled her eyes at Ryan and said, "I didn't bring a rope."
Ryan searched for a while and found that he didn't bring such a thing, so he jumped off the horse and squatted next to Adela. He raised his right hand and was about to put his hand on Adela's face. Thinking that Ryan was going to take the opportunity to insult her, she shook her head desperately to prevent Ryan from touching her.
Vivian rolled her eyes and threatened Adela: "Do you want to leave your brother's body intact?"
Vivian's understatement immediately made Adela's whole body stiffen. She glanced at Vivian with a vicious look, stopped struggling, closed her eyes in pain, and a tear flowed out of her eyes. , fell to the ground,
