After being reborn, I was won over by the heartfelt words of my loyal bodyguard.

Chapter 224: Capture

"Commander, what do you think? Should we follow them?" Yuan Zheng's guard couldn't help but ask.

Yuan Zheng shook his head, indicating that they should just stay here and guard the princess's residence. Yuan Zheng believed that Gan Luo would definitely be able to capture the two people.

Lin Fengmian and Gan Luo chased the two to a desolate wilderness. Unexpectedly, the two ran quite fast. Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi had never imagined that Lin Fengmian and Gan Luo's lightness skills were so good.

"Brother, what do you think we should do next? I feel like we have no way to escape their clutches."

If the two of them ran directly to the Prime Minister's residence, they would definitely expose the Prime Minister's identity. Therefore, they could not return to the Prime Minister's residence. The further they ran, the more they saw a cliff ahead.

Xiaoqi then made a decision. As the saying goes, survival in danger is perhaps the answer.

"We'll find a way to lure the two of them off the cliff."

They spoke in a voice only they could hear, when Lin Fengmian and Gan Luo circled around to the front of them. "Heh, I'd like to see where you can run to. I advise you not to run any further."

Xiao Qi was holding a whip, and the rope was brown. Gan Luo could sense that the rope was poisoned, so he immediately took a few steps back.

"Guard Lin, be careful."

At this moment, Xiao Qi waved the whip in her hand without hesitation. How could Xiao Qi possibly take out such a whip unless absolutely necessary?

Gan Luo and Lin Fengmian kept retreating, but Gan Luo was distracted and almost got hurt by the whip.

Fortunately, Lin Fengmian managed to grab the whip, but now his hand was injured by it, and brown blood was flowing from it.

Gan Luo was shocked when he saw this. He immediately tore off a piece of his clothes and hurriedly wrapped it around Lin Fengmian's neck.

Xiao Qi felt this was a great opportunity and decided to kill Gan Luo and Lin Fengmian. When Xiao Qi rushed forward, Gan Luo was very fast and circled around to Xiao Qi's back, stabbing him with his sword.

"Brother!" Xiao Qi shouted loudly from here.

Xiao Qi grabbed Gan Luo's legs and told Xiao Liu to leave quickly. Xiao Liu had no choice but to leave and ran away. Tears streamed down her face. At that moment, Gan Luo chopped off Xiao Qi's hand. Xiao Qi screamed.

Gan Luo's eyes were bloodshot. He crouched down and tightly gripped the man's neck. "How dare you injure my people here! Who gave you the audacity to do so? I also want to ask you, who sent you? Was it the Prime Minister, Xin Ruyu, or perhaps the Emperor?"

Gan Luo named everyone he could think of, but Xiao Qi remained silent. Xiao Qi glanced at the sword beside him, picked it up, and plunged it into his abdomen, dying instantly.

Gan Luo hadn't expected this person to commit suicide, but death is death, what does it have to do with Gan Luo? Gan Luo walked up to Lin Fengmian, looked at the injuries on Lin Fengmian's hands, and cursed Lin Fengmian: "Why are you so stupid now? I told you not to worry about me."

Lin Fengmian was pale, but he tried his best to stand firm and told Gan Luo, "I am the princess's personal bodyguard. I must protect her from injury. If the princess is injured, I am not a qualified bodyguard."

At that moment, Gan Luo thought Lin Fengmian was incredibly stupid. He then took Lin Fengmian back and found a doctor. However, the doctor told Gan Luo, "The poison is extremely potent. Even if I can cure him, this young master's hand may be ruined."

Gan Luo was a little shocked, not expecting such a thing to happen, but he didn't care and told the doctor to stay and treat Lin Fengmian properly. Gan Luo wanted Lin Fengmian to live, and he didn't care whether his hand was ruined or not.

“Go to the outskirts of the capital and bring his body back to me from a dense forest.”

Upon hearing Gan Luo's words, Yuan Zheng understood that Gan Luo had dealt with one of them.

A gentle breeze blew by, and Yuan Zheng was no longer there. He had arrived at the place Gan Luo had mentioned, and there he found a man who was badly injured. Gan Luo had even cut off the man's hand. It had to be said that the man's condition was indeed quite tragic.

Yuan Zheng carried the man on his back and eventually left.

Meanwhile, Xiao Liu returned to the Prime Minister's residence, covered in blood. As soon as he returned, the maids and servants around him cried out in alarm.

Xiao Liu's eyes were terrifyingly gloomy, and the maids and servants around him all retreated to the back, not daring to provoke him at all.

"Do I look scary? Do I need to back away like this?"

At that moment, Xiao Liu killed the maid in front of him. The maid stared wide-eyed, seemingly unable to die in peace.

The Prime Minister heard the screams and came to the scene, where he saw Xiao Liu covered in blood. He had no idea what had happened.

"Why would you do this out of the blue..."

The prime minister frowned, never expecting that his trip would turn out like this, and more importantly, what about his brother?

"Your subordinate has brought back news that Lou Yan has been placed in the suburbs by Gan Luo, and as for my brother, he has already been killed by Gan Luo."

The prime minister was speechless, unsure how to answer. He had never imagined that assigning them this task would result in his brother being killed by Gan Luo.

At this moment, the Prime Minister immediately apologized to Xiao Liu in front of him.

"We subordinates are only doing things for the Prime Minister, and we would die with honor. I just mistakenly killed a maid, and I hope the Prime Minister will punish me."

The prime minister glanced at the maid beside him and ordered her to be dragged to the mass grave.

"I understand your inner suffering. I will not blame you. Get up quickly. You've worked hard."

Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi were the Prime Minister's right-hand men, but unexpectedly, Xiao Qi was killed by Gan Luo. He will definitely remember this and will get his revenge one day.
