The transmigrated wife is crazy and ruthless.

Chapter 135 My Lord, I'll Protect You

Qi Yushuang and Mu Guangcheng left the Qi family mansion, and night enveloped the ancient residence.

They thought everything was going well, but little did they know that the gears of fate had already begun to turn.

In a corner of the mansion, Xiao Cui stood by the window, clutching a flying pigeon tightly in her hand.

She gazed in the direction where Qi Yushuang and Mu Guangcheng had gone, her heart filled with unease.

Although she had promised to help Qi Yushuang deliver messages, she could never shake off her fear and awe of Li Maozhen.

In the end, Xiao Cui decided to report everything to Li Maozhen.

She tied a short letter to the pigeon's leg and whispered, "Please make sure it reaches its master."

The pigeons flapped their wings and soared into the night sky, disappearing into the darkness.

Xiao Cui breathed a long sigh of relief, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from her heart, but at the same time, she also felt a vague unease.

A few days later, Li Maozhen was reviewing documents in his study when a guard handed him a letter.

Li Maozhen quickly unfolded the letter, and after reading it, his expression changed drastically, a flash of anger appearing in his eyes.

"This girl actually dared to elope!" Li Maozhen was furious. "We absolutely cannot let them succeed!"

Li Maozhen immediately ordered his trusted confidants: "Gather the experts stationed in Yangzhou immediately and pursue Qi Yushuang and Muguangcheng with all our might."

Make sure to bring them back.

Inside Yangzhou, Li Maozhen's henchmen quickly organized an elite squad to set off in pursuit of Qi Yushuang and Twilight City.

Meanwhile, Qi Yushuang and Muguangcheng had already left Yangzhou City and were traveling along a secluded road.

The morning sun shines on the earth, bringing a touch of warmth.

The two relaxed a bit and began planning their future itinerary.

However, Twilight City suddenly stopped and his expression turned serious.

"I always felt that something was wrong."

He said in a low voice, "We've made it too easy. I'm afraid someone will come after us."

Qi Yushuang's heart tightened, and she asked, "What are your thoughts?"

After a moment of contemplation, Twilight City said, "We must speed up and try to avoid the main roads."

Qi Yushuang nodded, admiring Mu Guangcheng's thoughtfulness and vigilance.

The two resumed their journey, quickening their pace.

A few days later, Li Maozhen's men inquired around the city and soon learned the direction Qi Yushuang and Muguang City had left in.

The pursuers dared not delay and immediately followed in the footsteps of Qi Yushuang and Muguangcheng.

Meanwhile, Qi Yushuang and Muguangcheng had arrived in a remote mountain forest.

The terrain here is complex and the roads are rugged, but it provides them with an excellent hiding place.

The two stopped and found a secluded spot to rest. "We might encounter pursuers soon," they said.

Twilight City cautiously surveyed its surroundings. "We need to be prepared for a response."

Qi Yushuang held his hand tightly and said firmly, "No matter what happens, I will stay with you."

Sure enough, not long after, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard in the distance.

Qi Yushuang and Mu Guangcheng exchanged a glance, realizing that the pursuers had caught up.

"Are you ready?" Twilight City asked.

Qi Yushuang nodded: "Ready."

The two quickly found a favorable location and hid well.

The footsteps of the pursuers grew closer.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves pounded the ground, breaking the tranquility of the valley.

Twilight City immediately became alert. He grabbed Qi Yushuang's hand and whispered, "Wife, quickly hide in the stone cave over there. I'll go and meet the enemy."

Qi Yushuang shook her head, a hint of worry flashing in her eyes: "My lord, how can you handle so many people by yourself?"

Twilight City said firmly, "You're pregnant, you can't take any risks. I have a way to handle this, you go and hide!"

Seeing that Mu Guangcheng was adamant, Qi Yushuang had no choice but to obey his arrangements and hide in a stone cave not far away.

She was extremely anxious, but could only pray that Twilight City would be safe and sound.

Twilight City stood at the entrance to the valley, facing the approaching pursuers.

He took a deep breath, drew his longsword from his waist, and prepared for this life-or-death battle.

The pursuers, riding swift horses and wielding swords and spears, charged forward menacingly.

"stop!"

Twilight City roared and swung his sword to block the attack from the leading soldier.

With his superb martial arts skills and agile movements, he temporarily held off the pursuers' attack.

However, with a large number of pursuers, Twilight City gradually felt overwhelmed.

Despite his valiant resistance, he was outnumbered and gradually forced back into the depths of the valley.

Just when Twilight City was in dire straits, Qi Yushuang could no longer suppress her anxiety.

She gripped the steel knife tightly in her hand, a strong urge to protect her welling up inside her.

She knew she couldn't stand idly by any longer.

"My lord, I will protect you!"

Qi Yushuang shouted and rushed out of the stone cave to join the battle.

Twilight City was taken aback. He had never seen Qi Yushuang wielding a weapon before, and he never expected her to be so brave.

He cried out anxiously, "Wife, go back quickly, it's too dangerous here!"

Qi Yushuang did not respond, but quickly threw herself into the battle.

The steel knife in her hand moved with lightning speed, each move swift and precise.

To Twilight City's astonishment, Qi Yushuang's martial arts skills were surprisingly high.

She not only has a mastery of various sword techniques, but also possesses extremely high combat skills.

The pursuers had initially thought Qi Yushuang was just a weak woman, but they hadn't expected her attacks to be so fierce.

Under Qi Yushuang's fierce offensive, the soldiers began to retreat in disarray, fleeing to avoid her.

Twilight City stared in disbelief at the scene before him, his heart filled with surprise and emotion.

He had always thought Qi Yushuang didn't know martial arts, never expecting her to be a hidden master.

"My wife, I never expected you to be so amazing."

Twilight City finally couldn't help but praise him.

Qi Yushuang smiled slightly and replied, "My lord, I have been hiding in the Qi family for many years. In this chaotic world, one must learn more skills to protect oneself."

A warmth filled Twilight City's heart; he knew he had found a partner who was both gentle and strong.

The two fought side by side, jointly resisting the pursuing troops' attack.

After a fierce battle, the pursuers were finally routed by Qi Yushuang and Muguangcheng.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the remaining soldiers turned their horses around and fled in panic.

Qi Yushuang sheathed her steel knife, walked to Mu Guangcheng's side, and asked softly, "Are you alright?"

Twilight City nodded and held her hand tightly: "Thanks to you, we were able to escape safely."

The two smiled at each other, their gratitude and love overflowing.

They realized that they hadn't cherished the past, and now that they had a child, they would stay by each other's side no matter how difficult the future might be.

After a short rest, Qi Yushuang and Muguangcheng continued their journey to the northern frontier.

They knew that the road ahead was still full of unknown challenges, but they were no longer afraid.

With each other's support and trust, they believed they would definitely find a home that belonged to them.
