Chapter 250 Fighting
Yingyue remained silent for a long time before slowly saying, "I come from a distant family, and we bear a special mission. But our family was betrayed and almost wiped out." As he said this, he clenched his fist, a trace of pain flashing in his eyes.
The boy's eyes widened; he never expected Yingyue to have such a tragic past.
"I escaped alone and drifted all the way here. Here, I just want to live a peaceful life." Yingyue's voice was low and indifferent.
The boy couldn't help but ask, "Then why are you always so cold?"
Yingyue stood up, walked to the window, and said with her back to the boy, "If I show too much emotion, it will only bring more danger. I don't want to implicate others."
A feeling of admiration welled up in the boy's heart. He stood up and said earnestly, "Perhaps you don't have to face this alone. I can be your friend and share the burden with you."
Yingyue slowly turned around, her gaze falling on the boy's sincere and earnest face. In that instant, her heart was like a still lake tossed with a pebble, rippling with delicate waves. Time seemed to freeze at that moment, and after a long, long time, she nodded gently and almost imperceptibly.
However, just as this tranquil atmosphere was broken, a sudden commotion arose outside. Yingyue's nerves tensed instantly; her previously gentle gaze sharpened like a sword, as if piercing through all fog and darkness. The boy beside her also sensed the unusual atmosphere and involuntarily tensed up. He quietly leaned closer to Yingyue and asked in a low voice, "What happened?" Yingyue gently shook her head, indicating that she knew nothing about it.
As if by unspoken agreement, the two tiptoed toward the door. Through the crack, they saw a group of mysterious figures dressed in black striding menacingly toward them. Their figures appeared particularly sinister and terrifying in the moonlight, sending chills down their spines.
"It seems I still couldn't escape their pursuit after all..." Yingyue bit her lip and murmured softly. The boy looked at her with a puzzled expression, his eyes full of confusion. Yingyue took a deep breath, composed herself, and explained to the boy, "These people must be the assassins sent by those villains who betrayed my family back then to hunt me down." Hearing this, the boy didn't hesitate at all, resolutely stepping forward and standing firmly in front of Yingyue.
"Now that we've become friends, I will never stand by and watch you face such great danger alone!" The boy straightened his body, his gaze fixed firmly ahead. His voice was as loud as a bell, each word carrying immense weight, echoing in the air for a long time.
Upon hearing these words, Yingyue was slightly taken aback. She slowly turned her head to look at the brave and fearless young man before her. She saw that the young man's fists were clenched tightly, his eyes revealing an unprecedented determination and courage. At that moment, a rare smile gradually appeared on Yingyue's icy face.
Just then, the men in black pressed closer, approaching swiftly like ghosts. Seeing this, Yingyue immediately began forming hand seals rapidly, chanting incantations. In an instant, a mysterious energy surged around her, making her appear like a war goddess descending upon the world.
However, despite his fear, the boy did not back down an inch. He gritted his teeth, clenched his fists tightly, and silently encouraged himself.
Suddenly, a powerful, suffocating aura erupted from Yingyue. This aura, like a surging, overwhelming wave, swept towards the men in black with tremendous force. Sensing the impact of this terrifying power, the men in black were involuntarily shaken, their steps slowing down.
Seizing the opportunity, Yingyue leaped forward without hesitation, rushing towards the man in black like lightning. Her moves were incredibly fierce, each attack containing boundless power, forcing the man in black to retreat steadily.
Meanwhile, the boy wasn't idle either. He nervously looked around, searching for an opportunity to help Yingyue. Finally, he spotted a pile of stones of varying sizes not far away. So, he quickly ran over, picked up a few of the larger stones, and then aimed at the men in black and hurled them at them. These stones, like cannonballs, hit the men in black accurately, successfully distracting them and creating more space for Yingyue to attack.
Thus, with the two working in perfect harmony, after a thrilling and intense battle, the man in black was finally unable to withstand the onslaught and could only flee in a sorry state.
After all the enemies had disappeared, Yingyue took a few light breaths, then turned to look at the other woman beside her, who was also panting heavily.
