Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 422

Chapter 422 Get Married
With a flash of exhaustion on her body, Yun Xiao immediately jumped up and sat up. With a happy expression, she said, “Did I succeed?”

The chaotic sound of horse hooves outside was completely different from the uniform sound of horse hooves from before.

At this moment, the sound of horse hooves was messy. Thinking back to the formation he had set up earlier, he would naturally think that his own formation was working.

Yun Xiao’s palm-sized face was covered with a blush, and her face was filled with unconcealable joy. This was the first time she revealed such a joyful smile throughout the night.

If the formation succeeded, it would mean that her painstaking efforts over the past few days had not been in vain. The formation she had laid down had succeeded. This was the best proof!

However, the smile on her face quickly dissipated.

It was only because Rong Jin said calmly, “No.”

The smile on Yun Xiao’s face immediately froze at the corner of her mouth. Her face was still flushed, and the joy on her cheeks was frozen.

Yun Xiao didn’t seem to believe it. She looked at Rong Jin with a gloomy expression. She thought that she had heard wrong. “No?”

Rong Jin said resolutely, “No.”

A trace of decadence appeared on Yun Xiao’s face. It turned out that the things she had learned in the past few days could not reach the point where she could use them. She sighed leisurely, and a trace of disappointment appeared on her little face.

However, she remembered that Zhou Jingxu had studied formations for a long time before, and it wasn’t done overnight. She had only been studying formations for a few days, so she couldn’t be so disappointed and lose her fighting spirit.

This also made Yun Xiao’s determination even more bitter. She believed that as long as she continued to learn, one day, she would be able to set up a formation, just like on New Year’s Eve when she used the formation to save her entire family’s life.

Rong Jin had been staring at the change in expression on Yun Xiao’s face. Seeing that Yun Xiao had returned to her normal state in the blink of an eye, she was filled with fighting spirit again. The corner of her mouth also slowly drew out a trace of a calm smile. This was the true Yun Xiao. She would not give up because of a temporary failure. Those who give up lightly will not achieve much.

But now, what Yun Xiao needed to do was to maintain a normal mentality, and not to drill her entire body into the formation.

After Yun Xiao recovered her normal state of mind, she remembered that since her own formation did not work, what was it that caused the black-clothed man’s formation behind her to be in chaos?

Yun Xiao turned her head and looked back, but there was nothing in front of her other than darkness. “Then how did those people become chaotic?” Although she knew that Zhou Jingyan’s hidden guards were well-trained, if nothing had happened, they would definitely not have become chaotic. However, the sound of horse hooves behind them was very chaotic without looking. However, this made Yun Xiao even more curious about what had happened.

“That was when Qing Liu sprinkled some medicine on the spot when he passed by. When those horses smelled the medicine, they were in a crazy state,” Rong Jin said without changing his expression. There was no change in his eyes at all.

Outside, Qing Liu happened to hear these words. Even though he gritted his teeth, he looked at the carriage in disbelief with an inexplicable expression in his eyes.

Did he clearly not do anything good? Those horse clubs were in a mess. It was all because of Fourth Young Lady’s formation that the horses were surrounded, alright?

However, these were Rong Jin’s words, and he couldn’t refute them. Moreover, since Master had said this, he must have his own intentions, so Qing Liu didn’t say anything.

Hearing Rong Jin’s words, Yun Xiao, who was inside the carriage, gave up with a faint gratitude. Since it was Qing Liu’s credit, she didn’t say anything.

Anyway, those black-clothed people were indeed stopped, so Yun Xiao was still very happy. The smile at the corner of her mouth became denser with this happiness, and then her entire body fell down. She chuckled and said, “Alright, I’ll rest for a while then.”

He didn’t doubt Rong Jin’s words at all, because Rong Jin knew that Rong Jin wouldn’t lie to her, but this time, it was an exception.

Rong Jin stared at Yun Xiao’s face, which had been closed for only a moment. The expression in his eyes was inexplicable. He sighed in his heart and reached out to rub Yun Xiao’s hair.

Sure enough, he had made an exception for Yun Xiao time and time again, but he did not regret it at all.

Rong Jin knew that the horses behind him were all blocked, so he let out a sigh of relief and lay beside Yun Xiao, his black eyes surging.

She pulled a strand of Yun Xiao’s hair in front of her. Seeing that Yun Xiao was sleeping soundly, she tried to tie her hair to Yun Xiao’s. With a light turn of her wrist, the two of them tied their hair together. Looking at this knot, the smile in Rong Jin’s eyes became even more intense.

Marrying was a husband and wife. Now, they were considered husband and wife. However, there was still a gap in status. However, he would supply Yun Xiao.

Looking at the concentric knot tied with his hair in his palm, the smile in his eyes grew thicker and thicker.

She gently pulled Yun Xiao into her embrace, placed her head on top of Yun Xiao’s head, held Yun Xiao’s shoulder with her big hand, and gently fell asleep.

However, Rong Jin’s sleep had always been very shallow.

Not long after, he suddenly felt the carriage tremble. His expression changed slightly. He immediately opened his eyes. Dark currents surged in his black eyes and a harsh expression flashed. Hearing the sound of horse hooves in front of him, he frowned and said, “What happened outside?”

“Master, Zhou Jingyan assassinated Ma. Ma is crazy. Qing Mo and I are trying to find a way.” Qing Liu’s respectful voice came from outside, but there was already a hint of anxiety in his voice.

Rong Jin listened to the commotion outside, his brows knitted tightly, and his expression became slightly gloomy. How could Zhou Jingyan stab the horse? Looks like he underestimated him.

Qing Liu and Qing Mo were just trying to comfort the horse and calm it down. They didn’t expect that their carriage would need horses to kill the horse. If they killed the horse now, the carriage wouldn’t be able to move.

However, his hesitation caused the horse to go even crazier.

On the other hand, Qing Mo held Zhou Jingyan tightly in his hand. A long sword was tightly pressed against Zhou Jingyan’s neck. His small face was ice-cold, as if it could penetrate into people’s hearts. Anyone who saw her face couldn’t help but gasp.

However, even though Zhou Jingyan had been grabbed by Qing Mo and held back by the sharp sword, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he used his greatest strength to say, “Let go of me, otherwise, this will be your burial ground!”

As Zhou Jingyan finished speaking, many black-clothed men suddenly appeared around him. Each of them held a sparkling sharp arrow in his hand. Under the faint moonlight, he was like a devil from hell, howling for his life.

Qing Mo naturally saw those people, but she didn’t care at all. She only snorted coldly and said, “I want to see if those people’s swords are faster or mine are faster. The Third Prince is buried with me. Even if they die, it’s worth it.”

Zhou Jingyan frowned. He felt that this woman was really confused. Looking ahead, the horse was no longer on the official road. It deviated from the official road and ran towards the cliff. If it went any further, the entire carriage would fall off the cliff.

Thinking of this, Zhou Jingyan was even more ruthless. His hand went deep into his body and used his fingernails to scratch his body. He felt that there was already more blood on his fingers. A dense glint flashed through his eyes and a dense smile flashed across the corner of his mouth. Then, he reached out and used his fingernails to scratch Qing Mo’s wrist with lightning speed.

This time, Zhou Jingyan had used up all of his strength, so he didn’t show any mercy at all.

Accompanied by the moonlight, Zhou Jingyan’s fingernails could be clearly seen interweaving red and black.

Qing Mo glanced at his wrist and saw that there was a little more black on his wrist. His expression changed slightly and his brows furrowed tightly.

It was she who underestimated Zhou Jingyan. He could actually think of such a method to scratch himself with a hand that carried snake venom and poison himself. How vicious!

There was a burst of numbness on her wrist, but Qing Mo did not let go of the grip on Zhou Jingyan because of this. She only pulled Zhou Jingyan harder and harder. At the same time, the sharp sword in her hand stabbed Zhou Jingyan’s neck a few times. Zhou Jingyan was still alive, so she would not let him die.

However, not letting him die did not mean that there was no way to avenge him!

Qing Mo snorted coldly. Then, the sharp sword in his hand flipped, and with a miserable scream from Zhou Jingyan, he withdrew it.

Zhou Jingyan didn’t expect Qing Mo to be so ruthless. He glanced at the blood flowing out of his hands. His face was pale and even more so, it didn’t have any color. The corner of his eyes followed a pink shadow and he saw that one of his fingers had been broken.

His eyes were filled with anger as he stared at Qing Mo. However, although he endured the pain on his fingers, he still couldn’t help but gasp for a breath of cold air.

Qing Mo ignored Zhou Jingyan’s hatred and muffled snort. He glanced at the cliff not far away and didn’t have time to think about it. If he hadn’t stopped the carriage earlier, all of them would have fallen off the cliff.

He immediately made up his mind and stabbed the sword in his hand at the crazy horse. This time, he didn’t show any mercy.

Under the pain, the horse raised its front hooves and struggled forward, then fell down. However, because the carriage was very fast, even without the horse to pull the carriage, it still slid forward for a long time because of inertia.

Seeing that the carriage had already reached the edge of the cliff and half of it was already suspended, but it did not fall down, Qing Mo and Qing Liu heaved a sigh of relief.

However, Zhou Jingyan, who was still being carried by Qing Mo, looked at the carriage angrily, and his expression was filled with fury and revenge.

Afterwards, he glanced at Qing Mo’s hand and transported all of his strength onto his legs. When Qing Mo was not on the dike, his feet exerted all their strength and kicked Qing Mo’s body. With the aid of elasticity, he jumped onto the land. However, due to this change, the entire carriage was no longer able to hold on and fell down the cliff …
