Yin Chujin woke up from the pain of her body hitting the ground. She struggled to open her eyes. She had just been thrown to the ground without any warning. The back of her head hit the ground and she felt a dull pain. It took her a while to remember what had happened before she fainted. She heard the sound of fighting. She looked over and saw black and white figures intertwining. All kinds of moves were thrown at each other.

The white figure was surrounded by five or six black shadows, but he seemed to be at ease. The folding fan in his hand opened and closed at times, flying non-stop. The five or six black-clothed men holding sabers could not break through his defense.

Yin Chujin clicked her tongue. It turned out that a folding fan could become such a powerful weapon. What surprised her even more was the owner of the folding fan…

Why was Sheng Yiming here?

She reached behind her head and rubbed it. Sure enough, there was a big bump there. Looking at the current situation, she could not understand the situation at all. However, seeing that the men in black were focused on Sheng Yiming and no one noticed her, she pushed herself up from the ground and identified a direction to escape.

It was not that she was disloyal, but she could not help much if she stayed here. When she woke up just now, she habitually looked for the poisonous powder hidden in her sleeve, but she did not find anything. Moreover, looking at Sheng Yiming’s skills, although she did not know martial arts, she knew that those men in black were not his match. It was only a matter of time before he defeated them. She did not want to be pestered by him after this, so she could only come up with a plan… Leaving was the best plan.

However, not long after she ran, seven to eight men in black descended from the sky and surrounded her, blocking her escape path.

“B*tch, if you dare to run, I’ll chop you up!” One of the men in black glared at her fiercely and raised his saber to slash at her.

Yin Chujin didn’t even blink as she stared at the saber in his hand. She didn’t believe that he would really chop it down.

With a whoosh, the white shadow rushed into the encirclement. With one hand, he pulled Yin Chujin into his embrace and with the other, he waved his fan.

Other than the few men in black who had fallen to the ground, there were more than ten people attacking him together. Yin Chujin was led around in circles by him and felt dizzy. No matter how good Sheng Yiming’s martial arts were, it was difficult for him to deal with more than ten experts at the same time.

He turned around and Yin Chujin was exposed to the men in black. One of them was slashing at them with a knife in his hand. When she saw the knife coming at her, she seemed to know that she could not dodge it. She did not even bother to scream and closed her eyes to wait for death. However, in the next moment, she was pulled away. Soon, the smell of blood filled her nose, but she did not feel any pain. She frowned and opened her eyes. She realized that she was still tightly protected in Sheng Yiming’s arms. The fight had not stopped, but there was a glaring wound on his left arm. Blood gushed out and stained his white clothes and hers.

Yin Chujin raised her head and looked at him. He didn’t even frown, but because he was injured, his face started to turn pale again. He still fought calmly with the man in black, his injured left arm still protecting her tightly.

She was still in a daze when she heard him say leisurely, “Do you dare to have some reactions that a normal person should have?”

Because he wasn’t facing her, Yin Chujin didn’t know if he was asking her.

“Stand firm!” After saying that, Sheng Yiming let go of her. The next moment, he snatched the man in black’s knife and gathered his inner energy…

Yin Chujin blinked and saw a silver saber turn blood-red in his hand. Sheng Yiming waved his hand gently, and the bright red saber transformed into countless blades. The saber lights and sword shadows flew around them with a furious roar. The men in black who were slow to dodge were all beheaded. The few men in black who escaped widened their eyes in disbelief.

“Blood… Blood Sacrifice… Shadowless Childe?” After saying these words with a trembling voice, the men in black used their lightness skills to escape in a sorry state.

In the blink of an eye, other than the corpses lying on the ground, only the two of them were left in the desolate mountain range. Yin Chujin lowered her head to look at the blood on her white dress, then looked at Sheng Yiming’s left arm, which was gushing with blood and his pale face. In the next moment, she saw him stab the saber in his hand into the ground and seal the major acupuncture points around his left arm to stop the blood from gushing out. Then, he grabbed the saber hilt with his right hand and bent over, panting heavily. It was obvious that he was in pain.
