Chapter 666: Lan’er, Let Me Play with You!
CHAPTER 666: CHAPTER 666: LAN’ER, LET ME PLAY WITH YOU!
Under the moonlight, Zhan Lan looked carefully and saw Ye Xiuhan.
"General Ye, why are you here?" Zhan Lan asked.
Ye Xiuhan’s eyes fell on Zhan Lan, "I was a little uneasy."
Zhan Lan was taken aback, and Ye Xiuhan explained, "Since Mu Cheng’an took Asi Han and the others, I’m worried they might escape."
Zhan Lan nodded, "Then General Ye, you’ll have to wait a little longer. The city’s soldiers have been searching all day. After midnight is when people are most fatigued. I guess they might choose that time to escape."
Ye Xiuhan nodded in agreement, "I’ll wait with you."
The two stood side by side. Zhan Lan looked at the full moon in the sky. On such a beautiful night, they were going to kill.
Another quarter of an hour passed, and sure enough, one of the grave mounds loosened. Then, the earth was pushed out from inside, and after two planks were separated, a person crawled out from the grave.
He poked his head out and looked around before he came out first.
Zhan Lan’s eyes brightened, and Ye Xiuhan’s eyes showed appreciation. This time, Zhan Lan had made the right bet again.
Zhan Lan’s mind was very meticulous in battle, often able to spot weaknesses. It had been hard for him in the past, and he had escaped death several times.
Now they stood together, dealing with a common enemy.
Moye was a bit excited. She pressed her hand on the hilt of her sword, just waiting for the Madam’s order.
Before long, several carriages came, seemingly to meet Mu Cheng’an’s party.
Finally, Mu Cheng’an and Asi Han hurried towards the carriages with Liu Yu.
In the woods, all the Hidden Guards drew their bows and arrows. Zhan Lan gave the order, "Shoot!"
Around the eerily atmospheric graves under the moonlight, in an instant, Mu Cheng’an saw countless arrows with a cold glint shooting towards them.
People kept falling, even Liu Yu was hit, and Asi Han gritted his teeth, "Damn it, we’ve been ambushed!"
"Counterattack!" Mu Cheng’an shouted calmly.
Ye Xiuhan, Moye, and a group of Hidden Guards drew their swords and charged out.
Zhan Lan moved to the side, drew, and aimed his bow at Asi Han. With a thud, Asi Han was hit in the leg.
He had already been shot in one leg by Zhan Lan and was limping. Now, with both legs hit, he tried hard to endure the pain and continue fleeing while cursing loudly, "Damn it, it must be that bitch Zhan Lan!"
With a thud, another arrow hit his thigh, and Zhan Lan coldly looked at Asi Han. He must be cursing her!
Curse all you want, you won’t hear anything in the future anyway.
"Ah! Zhan Lan, you won’t die a good death!" Asi Han was in so much pain he couldn’t walk anymore.
Moreover, he saw Liu Yu had been killed by Ye Xiuhan.
That unfaithful Mu Cheng’an got on the carriage trying to escape, without caring about his life or death.
Asi Han raised his curved blade, enduring the pain, and fought his way through. Today, he was going to kill Zhan Lan!
Otherwise, he would die with regrets!
The firelight bathed the graveyard like daylight. Just as Zhan Lan drew her bow again, suddenly her hand was held from behind. A familiar voice whispered warmly in her ear, "Lan’er, your husband will play with you!"
Zhan Lan turned around abruptly and saw Mu Yan standing behind her. With a thud, Asi Han’s felt hat was shot off his head by an arrow from Mu Yan.
Asi Han was so scared his face turned pale, because that arrow had grazed his scalp, and when he touched it with his hand, it was stained with blood.
"Ah!" Asi Han finally broke down.
"Mu Yan!" Zhan Lan was both surprised and delighted.
The sound of the fighting was too loud, and only a master like Mu Yan could silently come up behind her.
"Why are you?" she hadn’t finished speaking when Mu Yan, while drawing another arrow, said, "I arrived not long ago and saw my little girl having quite a bit of fun."
With a thud, Asi Han was hit by another arrow.
Mu Yan watched Asi Han in agony, smiled slightly, "It really does seem quite fun."
Zhan Lan watched Mu Yan draw his bow again, twitching at the corners of her lips. In his next life, Asi Han might as well be a porcupine!
With a thud, Asi Han was hit again on the shoulder.
Zhan Lan was held from behind by Mu Yan, holding her hand and shooting arrow after arrow, almost playing Asi Han to death.
"Mu Cheng’an has escaped, won’t you go after him?" Zhan Lan asked.
Mu Yan raised an eyebrow, "Isn’t Ye Xiuhan there?"
Zhan Lan’s lips twitched again. When it comes to being devious, Mu Yan was second to none.
Sure enough, he saw Ye Xiuhan and Moye chasing after Mu Cheng’an’s carriage.
In the firelight, Asi Han knelt on the ground and saw the couple in the small forest who were almost toying him to death. He gritted his teeth and said, "Zhan Lan, Mu Yan, it’s you!"
The man who could hold Zhan Lan and had such excellent archery skills could only be Mu Yan.
He had also come to the Beiyue Imperial City!
"Lan’er, have you had enough fun?" Mu Yan stared at Asi Han’s head and said.
Zhan Lan nodded, and Mu Yan drew the last three arrows from her quiver, held her hand, drew the bow, and fired them suddenly.
The next moment, Asi Han’s forehead, eyes, and mouth were simultaneously pierced by arrows.
Asi Han spat blood, filled with anger, unwillingness, and died in despair.
Mu Yan had just heard Asi Han curse Zhan Lan, and if not for having to deal with Mu Cheng’an, he would have cut his tongue out and skinned him alive!
Zhan Lan smelled the blood in the air and almost vomited.
Mu Yan saw her discomfort and immediately supported her, asking, "Lan’er, what’s wrong?"
"Nothing, just stomach discomfort." Zhan Lan waved her hand.
Mu Yan supported her out of the graveyard, away from the blood, and knitted his brows, saying, "Make sure to see a doctor as soon as we get back."
"Okay." Zhan Lan reminded, "Be careful of Yun He!"
Mu Yan’s gaze instantly turned cold, and holding her hand, he said, "Don’t worry, Lan’er."
Zhan Lan felt assured. It seemed Mu Yan already knew Yun He was a traitor.
Before long, they heard the sound of horses’ hooves. They saw Mu Cheng’an being brought back by Ye Xiuhan and Moye not far away.
Mu Cheng’an looked at Mu Yan and Zhan Lan walking hand in hand with a gloomy expression.
His years of planning had turned to bubbles overnight.
These two were really too difficult to deal with!
Ye Xiuhan was first surprised to see Mu Yan, then his gaze fell on their joined hands.
Mu Yan knew he was different towards Zhan Lan than with other women, which is why he was so confident!
He suddenly felt used by Mu Yan, but he was willing to do it, as long as Zhan Lan was safe; he didn’t care about anything else.
Mu Yan looked at Ye Xiuhan, knowing he could trust Ye Xiuhan to help Zhan Lan when in peril. He would use anyone he could trust, who could genuinely protect Zhan Lan.
Of course, he would repay any favors owed himself!
Under the firelight, Zhan Lan looked at Mu Cheng’an, gritting his back teeth. He was an upright middle-aged man, only ten years older than his niece Mu Xiyao.
Although he was over fifty years old, he still looked very young. It seemed the Mu Family all aged gracefully, including Mu Yan. Over the years, his appearance hadn’t changed at all compared to the earlier years.
Mu Cheng’an looked at Mu Yan, maintaining calm, "Mu Yan, if you kill me, the old associates of Zhongzhou will not follow you. My people, along with the old associates, will seek revenge against you!"
