Chapter 373: Don ‘t misunderstand

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Niaoniao rode the horse all the way. When she arrived at the temporary camp of the bridal procession, she realized that Xiao Juan, Princess Tao Ran, and Han Chengxi were all gone.

After asking, she learned that they had been gone for a long time.

Yu Niaoniao immediately had a bad feeling.

She asked Yan Nanguan to gather all the Eagle Guards and search the surroundings with the camp as the center.

Yu Niaoniao also participated in the search.

As the search area increased, the distance between her and the Eagle Guards widened.

But she was not worried that she would get lost. She continued forward without hesitation.

After an unknown period of searching, she saw light ahead.

She perked up and rode quickly forward.

Soon, she saw Xiao Juan. He was pressed to the ground. Someone raised a saber and looked down at the back of his neck.

The next moment, his head would fall to the ground.

Yu Niaoniao was anxious, but her brain was surprisingly calm.

She raised her right hand on the horse’s back and the buckle expanded.

Whoosh.

A small crossbow bolt shot out and sent the saber flying.

Xiao Juan looked up at her.

He watched as Yu Niaoniao rode towards him.

In the night, everything was dark except for her. She crossed barriers and overcame numerous challenges to dash toward him recklessly.

Han Chengxi’s expression changed drastically as he shouted sternly, “Catch her!”

The killers were about to attack Yu Niaoniao.

At this moment, Xiao Juan suddenly exploded and threw all the Chen Nation

guaras wno were suppressmg mm to me grouna.

Then, he picked up the No Return Saber on the ground and appeared in front of Han Chengxi in the blink of an eye.

Han Chengxi did not carry a saber.

He could only retreat quickly.

Unfortunately, he was too late.

The No Return Saber had already fallen, cutting a wound on his face. The wound stretched down the left side of his forehead, past the bridge of his nose, and to the jawbone of the left side of his face.

In an instant, blood overflowed and flowed down, dying most of his face red.

He cried out in pain.

Seeing this, the Chen Nation guards could only give up on the mission to capture Yu Niaoniao and run to protect Han Chengxi.

Seeing that one move failed to take Han Chengxi’s life, Xiao Juan,though regretful, did not continue fighting.

He quickly retreated and distanced himself from the Chen Nation guards.

Yu Niaoniao rode up to him and extended her right hand.

“Get up here!”

Xiao Juan grabbed her hand and flipped onto the horse’s back, sitting steadily behind her.

He casually sheathed the No Return Saber and held Yu Niaoniao’s waist with one hand. With the other, he took out a small and exquisite quiver.

He lit the fuse of the quiver with a match, then raised it high.

Accompanied by a sharp siren, a small fire rose into the night sky, then suddenly exploded into fiery fireworks.

This was a signal between the Eagle Guards. When the Eagle Guards, who were still searching in the forest, saw this firework, they all stopped searching and ran in the direction of the explosion.

Seeing this, Han Chengxi knew that his plan had completely failed. He covered the wound on his face and ordered through the pain.

“Retreat!”

The Chen Nation guards covered Han Chengxi’s retreat.

Princess Tao Ran originally did not want to follow them, but Han Chengxi refused to let her go. Before he left, he did not forget to get the guards to capture her.

Yu Niaoniao raised her right hand again and aimed the crossbow at Han Chengxi’s retreating back.

Han Chengxi seemed to have sensed the danger behind him. He specially asked the guards to stand behind him.

In this way, his figure was tightly covered by the guards. Yu Niaoniao could only put down the crossbow regretfully.

“Tsk, how cunning.”

Soon, Yan Nanguan rushed over with the Eagle Guards.

They were all frightened when they saw the corpses all over the ground. When they looked at Duke Lang again, they saw that he was also covered in blood and looked extremely sorry.

With the crisis resolved, Yu Niaoniao heaved a sigh of relief.

She was about to turn to speak to the man behind her when he collapsed. His tall body pressed against hers, almost crushing her. Yu Niaoniao called Xiao Juan twice, but there was no reaction.

The man had clearly fainted.

Yan Nanguan hurriedly said, “Hurry back to the camp. There’s a physician there!”

They hurried back.

When they arrived at the camp, the Eagle Guards carried Duke Lang into the tent on a stretcher.

The doctor took Duke Lang’s pulse and checked his injuries.

“He didn’t hurt his vitals, but he lost too much blood. He needs to recuperate well for a while.”

He bandaged Xiao Juan’s injuries and gave him a few more instructions before leaving with the medicine box.

Knowing that Xiao Juan’s life was not in danger, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

It was not until this moment that Yan Nanguan had a chance to ask. “I wonder how the Princess Consort found this place?”

Yu Niaoniao quickly said, “Little Meng and Wei Liao escorted me all the way here. We were intercepted on the way. I wonder how they are now. Hurry up and send someone to help them.”

She described the location of the interception in detail.

Yan Nanguan nodded and said, “I’ll remember. I’ll bring people to find them now. ”

With that, he turned around and left the tent.

The curtain was lifted and lowered.

In the end, only Yu Niaoniao and Xiao Juan were left in the tent.

Xiao Juan was still unconscious. His eyes were closed and his face was pale. His clothes were covered in blood. It was impossible to tell which was his blood and which was someone else’s.

Yu Niaoniao got someone to bring over a basin of water.

She first helped Xiao Juan take off his dirty clothes, then wiped the blood off his body with a wet handkerchief.

After wiping the front, Yu Niaoniao carefully lifted his body, wanting to wipe his back.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Juan suddenly opened his eyes.

He looked straight at Yu Niaoniao, scaring her.

“Y-you’re awake?!”

Xiao Juan did not respond. He continued to look straight at her without even blinking.

Yu Niaoniao felt that something was wrong.

She waved her hand in front of Xiao Juan’s eyes, but there was still no reaction.

Yu Niaoniao could not help but panic.

“Xiao Juan, can you hear me? Don’t scare me.”

After a while, she saw Xiao Juan’s eyes move slightly. He asked hesitantly as if he couldn’t be sure.

“Niaoniao?”

Yu Niaoniao hurriedly replied, “It’s me. I’m Niaoniao!”

Xiao Juan slowly turned his head and looked around. Then, he lowered his head and looked at his body.

“What’s going on?”

Yu Niaoniao blushed and hurriedly let go of him. She stood up and explained.

“You’re so dirty. I want to wipe you down. I don’t mean anything else. Don’t misunderstand.”

Xiao Juan propped himself up on the bed with one hand and rubbed his temples with the other. His voice was low and hoarse.

“I thought I was dreaming. I didn’t expect it to be true.”

Yu Niaoniao blinked, clearly not following his train of thought.

“What dream?”
