Shen Ershiqi was right. Xiao Changyan's first priority was to deal with him, so he should not stay here any longer. He had basically explained everything he should have explained to Shen Ershiqi.
Nodding at Shen Ershiqi, Shen Yun'an turned around to look at the official ship whose outline was gradually becoming clear.
He couldn't just dive into the water like that, as that would give Xiao Changyan an advantage. After all, his pass was presented by Shen Ershiqi in the capacity of the Prince of Southern Shu, and he suddenly absconded. Xiao Changyan took this opportunity to detain Shen Ershiqi and his group.
With a flash of his eyes, Shen Yun'an locked onto the shadow guards in front of him who were fighting with the young men brought by Zhapu.
The shadow guards that Xiao Changyan had spent a lot of effort and money to train were by no means ordinary people. Even if there were only four or five of them against the dozen or so people brought by Zhapu, they were not at all inferior.
Shen Yun'an raised the corners of his lips, a cold light flashed across his crimson lips, his sharp starry eyes quickly burned through every part of the fight between the two sides, a feasible route flashed through his mind, and his feet and body had already moved along the trajectory in his mind.
The sun is shining brightly in the sky, and sparkling golden light spreads across the river surface.
It should have been a hot summer with dry air everywhere, but countless cold lights flashed across everyone's eyes.
They only felt that Shen Yun'an's body movements were so fast that an afterimage was left. With his lightning-fast speed, he ran straight to the other end from one end through countless two fighting parties in the blink of an eye. It seemed that those people who were fighting with swords and sparks flying had slowed down.
By the time Shen Yun'an fell to the ground, many shadow guards had a bloody mark on their necks or backs of their necks, and blood was dripping down in an instant. They only felt the sudden pain, and before they could raise their hands to touch the wound, their bodies stiffened and they fell down with a bang!
Shen Yun'an's move shocked everyone, especially those in Zhapu who had fought with the shadow guards before and knew how agile the other party was. They subconsciously felt a chill on their necks.
Six enemies were killed in one move. The remaining shadow guards were only frightened for a moment. The leading shadow guard immediately jumped up and rushed towards Shen Yun'an with his sword. The other shadow guards also came to their senses and fought with Zhapu's people again.
Shen Yun'an looked at the sword that seemed to be breaking through the air. He quickly jumped back, tapped his foot on the sword's edge, and nimbly flipped in the air and dived into the river.
Just as he dived into the river, a long arrow flew over, pierced through the air as he was tumbling, passed through his body, and hit the boat.
Shen Ershiqi quickly walked to the side of the boat and stared at the river surface where Shen Yun'an was splashing water. He didn't see whether Shen Yun'an was hit by an arrow. After a while, the ripples gradually calmed down and no blood floated up. His complexion looked slightly better.
At this time, the shadow guards also saw the situation and jumped into the river one by one. Xiao Changyan's official ship approached. Shen Ershiqi looked at Xiao Changyan, who was only a few steps away, with a sullen face and said, "Your Highness, why did you shoot arrows at my people from Shunan?"
Xiao Changyan raised his eyebrows: "You were actually from Shunan?" He pretended to be surprised, then clasped his fists to Shen Ershiqi, "Please forgive me, Your Highness. We were too far away, and I didn't see clearly. I thought it was someone who wanted to assassinate you."
After a pause, Xiao Changyan raised his hand and waved: "Go and find the prince's followers quickly, and bring them back safely."
At his command, people jumped into the water one by one as if they had been prepared. Waves arose on the surface of the river, and Shen Twenty-Seven could only keep a cold face.
