He drew a circle with his feet, catching the knife and pushing the sword in one smooth motion. Dian Qing lost his balance instantly and was thrown away by Bai Yuan, who used the force against him.
The mechanism was successfully activated, and this time Xuan Jian's white sword did not shatter.
"go!"
He turned back to remind Bai Yuan and Wuming, then carried Wei Qianqian and walked ahead.
Bai Yuan and Wuming reacted quickly and followed closely behind, leaving Wengcheng.
Dian Qing could only watch them leave, unable to give chase.

Chapter 38 is for the Assassins, what does that have to do with me, Bai Yuan?
?
Once Bai Yuan and the others left, Dian Qing turned his attention to Wei Yong, who had been knocked unconscious by Wuming.
At his command, he ordered his men to tie up Wei Yong.
The burly man, who was observing everything from the shadows, knew that the matter was clear. Although there had been some twists and turns that allowed Xuan Jian to escape, the real culprit, Wei Yong, was still there.
He no longer concealed himself and jumped down from the pavilion of the barbican.
"Brother!"
Upon seeing the burly man who suddenly appeared, Dian Qing instinctively tensed up, but only relaxed his guard after recognizing the man.
"Junior Brother Wei Gang? Aren't you working for Lord Xinling? What are you doing here?"
The burly man Wei Gang took out Lord Xinling's token and showed it to Dian Qing, then began to explain.
"I came here on Lord Xinling's orders to investigate Wei Yong's treason. Lord Xinling had previously received information that Wei Yong was secretly colluding with assassins from the Luo Wang organization to assassinate loyal generals of Wei, but he had been unable to find concrete evidence. I have witnessed everything that happened tonight, and Wei Yong will surely be punished accordingly!"
Upon hearing this, Dian Qing felt a surge of inexplicable anger. He stepped forward, grabbed Wei Gang by the collar, and questioned him, "You say that Lord Xinling knew beforehand that Wei Yong was secretly colluding with Luo Wang? Then why didn't you come out to stop him when Master was killed?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Gang also showed a sorrowful expression.
“I am also very saddened by Master’s death, but we cannot blame the Emperor. He did not know that Wei Yong would dare to harm Master. By the time we received the news, it was too late!”
After hearing his explanation, Dianqing finally accepted the facts and calmed down.
He glanced at Wei Yong, who was still unconscious, and wished he could tear him to pieces right then and there.
However, he was still rational enough to know that he should be brought before King Wei so that King Wei could deal with him and give his master justice.
"Senior brother, I would like to ask you to hand Wei Yong over to us."
At this moment, Wei Gang suddenly made a puzzling request.
"Give it to you?"
“That’s right! Now that our master has passed away, the Wei Wu Corps is leaderless, and the Qin army is eyeing us covetously at the front. At this time, we need a suitable commander to lead the Wei Wu Corps to resist the Qin army. Lord Xinling is the most suitable candidate, but as you know, the King is concerned about the sovereign.”
Wei Gang didn't spell it out clearly, but Dian Qing already understood what he meant.
The situation at the front is extremely critical. Under these circumstances, Lord Xinling is indeed the most suitable person to take command of the Wei Wuzu. However, given the extent to which the King of Wei is wary of Lord Xinling, it is difficult for him to hand over control of the Wei Wuzu.
Therefore, Lord Xinling needed an opportunity to make everyone believe that he had exposed Wei Yong's true colors.
In this situation, if any more ministers submit petitions, the King of Wei will have no choice but to agree.
Lord Xinling led the Wei elite troops to defeat the Qin army twice, and led the allied forces of five states to attack Hangu Pass, making the Qin army dare not talk about going east for many years. His fame and prestige shook the world.
With him as commander, the army's morale will surely be boosted, and they will be able to hold off the Qin invaders.
Thinking of his master's dying wish, Dian Qing took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and nodded.
"Wei Yong can be handed over to you."
Seeing that Dian Qing had agreed, Wei Gang's face lit up with joy.
"Then, senior brother, I'll go back and report to the Emperor first."
Now! ”
After saying that, Wei Gang unceremoniously ordered two Wei Wu soldiers to take Wei Yong back with him.
On the other side, Xuan Jian and the others who escaped the city ran for quite a distance until they could no longer see the city walls before they stopped.
At that moment, snowflakes began to fall from the sky, making the air feel even colder under the icy moonlight.
It's only late autumn, but it's already snowing in Daliang.
The group arrived at a small river, and Xuan Jian was the first to express his gratitude to Bai Yuan and Wuming.
"Although I don't know why you're helping us, thank you very much for today!"
Xuan Jian, the assassin from the Luo Wang organization, was no longer the ferocious man he once was. He gave Bai Yuan and the other two the feeling of being a responsible and virtuous man.
"No need to be polite. You've learned to protect, and you've put aside your bloodlust and turned over a new leaf. You deserve our help."
Wuming shook his head slightly. Although it was the first time he had met Xuan Jian in person, after what had just happened, he was certain that he had not helped the wrong person.
A husband who knows how to protect and a killer who only knows how to kill are completely different concepts.
"So where do you plan to go next?"
Bai Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly and inquired about the two's plans for the future.
At this moment, Wei Qianqian tugged at Xuan Jian's clothes, a hint of worry in her eyes.
"The child is still in the father's hands."
After hearing this, Xuan Jian patted her hand to reassure her, and then replied to Bai Yuan and the other two, "We cannot leave yet. I must go back and rescue my child."
At this moment, a hint of hesitation appeared on his face. He glanced at Wei Qianqian and then bowed deeply to Bai Yuan and the other person.
"I would like to ask you two for another favor!"
"Tell me."
“I’m a little worried about Qianqian being out alone, so I would like to ask you two to take care of her for me.”
Upon hearing this, Wei Qianqian nervously grabbed Xuan Jian's hand and refused to let go. Although she was worried about the child, she didn't want Xuan Jian to take any more risks.
Bai Yuan and Wuming exchanged a glance.
"We're afraid we can't help you with this."
Xuan Jian was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this, but he also knew that the other party was already acting out of kindness by helping them this once.
But Bai Yuan hadn't finished speaking.
"Because we also need to go back to Daliang, we won't be able to help you take care of Wei Qianqian."
"Are you also going back to Daliang? If nothing unexpected happens, you will also be wanted by the Wei Wu soldiers."
Xuan Jian and Wei Qianqian were somewhat puzzled.
"Don't worry about us, we have plenty of ways to evade the wanted list."
Bai Yuan didn't care at all. In the end, it would be the Assassins and their accomplices who would be wanted. What did it have to do with them?
He pointed at Xuan Jian.
"As for you, although Wei Yong is the mastermind behind this matter, you are the one who carried out the mission. Wei Wuzu must hate you to the bone. If you go to Daliang at this time, it might not be appropriate."
"But."
"Alright, let's help each other out completely. If you trust us, then you should take good care of your wife outside the city. We'll be leaving the city in a few days and will bring your children with us!"
Bai Yuan waved his hand, interrupting Xuan Jian.
Rescuing the two children was no big deal for them. They had made an agreement with Lord Xinling that Wei Qianqian and her child would not be implicated because of Wei Yong. They would find a reason to get Wei Wuji to give them the child.
Xuan Jian and Wei Qianqian were unaware of their deal with Wei Wuji, so they discussed it further.
Ultimately, they chose to accept Bai Yuan's method.
"Then we will wait for news from you two in the village to the east!"
"Okay! We'll be going now."
Bai Yuan and Wuming calculated the time and realized it was time for them to return. They used their lightness skills to fly back towards Daliang City once again.

Chapter 39 A Rising Star
Before dawn, Bai Yuan and Wuming successfully returned to Xuanxin Pavilion.
Upon returning, Bai Yuan took off his bright red clothes and changed back into his usual attire.
Tuk Tuk!
Bai Yuan had just changed his clothes when he heard a knock on the door.
"Enter!"
Squeak!
The door was slowly pushed open, and Bai Yuan could see who it was.
"Ningyan? You haven't slept all night?"
"Yeah, I can't sleep. Did you guys just get back?"
Jingni was already used to hearing Bai Yuan address her by that name.
During this time, she also began to try to forget her previous identity and immerse herself in the role of Ningyan.
"Yeah, what's wrong? Worried about us?"
Bai Yuan poured himself a glass of water while jokingly saying this.
"You think too much."
Jing Ni replied without changing her expression, her eyes fixed on the mask on the bed.
Wow, so he was concerned about the mask after all!
Bai Yuan waved his hand helplessly: "Take it!"
