Zi'an could sense the murderous intent behind her. She knew she couldn't fool him, so she turned around coldly with a chill in her eyes.
The sword flashed before her eyes, and the tall guard approached her, pointed his sword at her and asked sternly, "Where are the rest of the people?"
Zi'an smiled coldly, and thinking of the dead villagers, she could no longer bear it, and suddenly made a move, swinging the Scar Rope. The Scar Rope directly wrapped around the long sword of the imperial guard. She raised it with force, and the long sword flew out and landed on the grass not far away.
"You are not a villager from Muzhai, you are from Da Zhou." The two imperial guards were immediately delighted. The emperor would reward heavily for anyone who captured or killed someone from Da Zhou.
Zi'an didn't want to waste time talking to them, so he made a quick move. The scar rope pierced through the chest of the short imperial guard, and flew back covered in blood.
This move shocked the tall guard, and he shouted, "Help, it's someone from the Great Zhou..."
Before he could finish his words, Scarlett had already pierced his throat. He could hardly believe it, his eyes widened, staring at Zi'an.
Blood spurted out from his neck. Zi'an pulled back Scar Rope and saw that the imperial guards on the opposite mountain had been alarmed and were chasing them viciously.
Zi'an picked up the sword of the imperial guards, cut his finger, and stained the scar with blood, and said, "If you have a spirit, summon all your poisonous snakes."
Scarlett's stripe was originally stained with the blood of two imperial guards, but strangely enough, the blood was quickly absorbed, while the stain that Zi'an had applied was still there.
Zi'an didn't run away, and a ferocious hatred appeared in his eyes.
She couldn't run away. If the venomous snake hadn't come out, she could have taken down at least dozens of people with Scarlett Johansson. In that case, even if she died, she would have avenged a little bit of Rouyao. It was worth it to be buried with these demons!
The imperial guards soon swarmed in, all of them were bloodthirsty and ferocious. She took Scarlett in her hand, feeling anxious and hateful.
No Viper showed up, which meant that she and Scarface had to deal with at least three hundred imperial guards alone.
"Who are you?" A man in a purple military robe walked out from the surrounding soldiers, staring at Zi'an with cold eyes, looking him up and down.
He looked at An for a moment, then at the bodies on the ground, and immediately became furious, "Did you kill them?"
Zi'an stood up straight and stared at him. He looked a bit like Empress Cao. "What's your name?"
"How dare you ask our master's name? Tell me, did you kill them?" an imperial guard asked sternly.
Zi'an suddenly laughed, his laugh was very ironic, "Isn't this obvious? I didn't kill them, could it be that they committed suicide?"
The imperial guard was furious and was about to draw his sword, but the purple-robed general suddenly stretched out his hand to stop him. There seemed to be a hint of understanding and excitement in his eyes. If she was the Regent Princess, that would be great, and it would not be in vain for her sister to support her. It would be a great achievement at least.
"Who are you?" he asked.
Zi'an did not answer, but asked him, "Who are you?"
The purple-robed general said, "My name is Cao Le."
"Who is Cao Ji to you?" Zi'an tilted his head and suddenly laughed. The laughter was very pleasant, as pleasant as wind chimes.
"Do you know my elder brother?" Cao Le was stunned.
Cao Ji died last night. The brothers split into two groups. After learning the news, one of them went to intercept Qin Zhou, while Cao Le led his men up the mountain. Therefore, Cao Le did not know that Cao Ji was dead.
Zi'an took a step closer and saw the imperial guard who had just spoken shout angrily, "Stop!"
Zi'an stopped walking, still smiling, and stared at Cao Le.
Cao Le looked at her and saw that she was in a dishevel, with large bloodstains on her clothes and disheveled hair. Her face was extremely pretty, and her eyes were like two deep ancient wells. She had a terrifying aura. It seemed that she was undoubtedly the Regent Princess.
No one else has such momentum.
"Do you know my eldest brother?" Cao Le asked again, but he had a bad feeling in his heart. He learned the news yesterday that Qin Zhou and Xia Zian went down the mountain, and his eldest brother led people to intercept and kill them. Now that Xia Zian is here, did his eldest brother fail
Thinking of this, his brows were covered with a layer of ice, "Where is my eldest brother?"
Zi'an laughed loudly, her laughter was so loud that the birds on the branches were startled.
"Do you want to know what happened to him? Come here and I'll tell you!" Zi'an was delaying time. Scarface had never made any mistakes. Why didn't Viper come this time
Cao Le didn't go over, but just frowned, with a hint of hostility flashing in his eyes.
"Will you tell me or not? If you don't, I'll kill you." The imperial guard saw Zi'an delaying again and again, and he shouted angrily, unable to hold back his anger.
"Kill me?" Zi'an chuckled. "You won't kill me, at least not now. Ask your Lord Cao, is he willing to kill me?"
The imperial guards hadn't guessed her identity yet. When they heard her say this, they suddenly drew their swords and approached fiercely, "Don't think you can flirt with me here just because you are pretty. Our Lord Cao has seen all kinds of beautiful women. How could he be reluctant to kill you?"
Zi'an reached out and removed the sword, looking at Cao Caole with a smile, "Why don't you ask your Lord Cao if he really doesn't want to kill me?"
Cao Le waved his hand, signaling the imperial guards to retreat.
The imperial guards were startled, thinking that Cao Le really liked the girl's beauty, and they could not help but get anxious, "Sir, this girl must be from Muzhai, we must kill her."
Cao Le shook his head and said in a cold voice, "She is not from Muzhai, don't you know her? She has been to the palace and met the emperor and the queen. You have all worked in the palace, but you didn't recognize her?"
When everyone heard this, they all stared at Zi'an.
However, among so many people, not all of them had seen Zi'an. Only a few of them had seen her. That day, Zi'an was dressed in luxurious clothes, noble and generous. They identified her for a long time before they finally recognized that the dusty woman in front of them was the Regent Princess who entered the palace with the Regent of the Great Zhou that day.
"You are Xia Zian, the regent princess of the Great Zhou!" Someone recognized her and shouted.
The imperial guards present were stunned when they heard this. The regent princess of the Great Zhou? Her? How could she look like that
But no matter whether she looks like her or not, if it is her, then they have done a great job.
The imperial guards immediately became excited. They looked at Zi'an with bloodthirsty eyes, as ferocious and excited as hungry wolves seeing food.
Zi'an sneered and was about to speak when he saw several figures suddenly appear on the opposite mountain. Although Zi'an could not make out clearly, he could tell from their running posture that they were Xiaosun, Liuliu and others. He thought that the imperial guards must have shouted and were seen by Liuliu and others who were hiding.
Her heart was in her throat. It would be easier if she was alone. Even if Scarlett failed to summon the poisonous snake and could barely protect her, it might be possible to delay until Qin Zhou arrived.
However, if they came, the three hundred imperial guards would chop them into meat paste in an instant, and Scarface would not be able to save them at all.
She didn't dare look again, afraid that they would follow her eyes.
