away from the heart

Chapter 110 Falling off the Cliff 1
A smoke bomb pierced through the faintly bright sky, and it was gone in a flash, and Tang Ben couldn't help but pause at his feet.

The Qingyun family has already fled in this mountain all night.He had already calculated that since Xue Yao resigned from the military power, all he had in his hands were soldiers from the family generals, and even if they all came after them, it would definitely not be possible to spread them all over the back mountain.As long as the tribe is scattered and the pursuers are restrained, they can escape.

The first half of the night went smoothly, but in the second half of the night, Xue Yao borrowed a strange army from somewhere, including some capable men and strangers in the Jianghu.Even though the entire Qingyun Clan has been mobilized, the situation is still taking a turn for the worse.

Every smoke bomb means that a tribe hiding in the mountains has been killed or injured.Calculating with his fingers, almost all of his Qingyun clan fell into this mountain tonight, which made him feel like a knife was twisting his heart.Look at the sky again, if he doesn't break out again, it will be even more difficult to hide his whereabouts after dawn, and he may even be buried here.

One of his subordinates was putting his ear to the ground, suddenly jumped up, and said in panic: "Patriarch, someone is chasing you from behind!"

The group of people continued to flee like frightened birds. Unexpectedly, when the forest came to an end, there was a cliff in front of them. It was the end of the road.Tang Ben grabbed Chuyue: "Princess, I have to wrong you!"

After the Shun Palace sent reinforcements, they finally had enough manpower to encircle and suppress the assassins in the mountains.Xue Yao and Xing Chen each led their troops to strangle several fleeing assassins, and they became more and more frightened: there are so many assassins tonight that it seems impossible to kill them all.Who is the person behind the scenes, who has such great ability and is determined to catch Chuyue?

Xue Yao followed the traces all night, and passed through a dense forest. Suddenly, a cliff appeared in front of him.A group of Qingyun clansmen surrounded the cliff, but when they saw him, they had no intention of fleeing. Instead, a person came out from the crowd: "Meet you again, General Xue."

"You are Tang Ben, the Patriarch of the Qingyun Clan?" Xue Yao Jianfeng pointed at Tang Ben, "Where is Chuyue?"

"General Xue is concerned about his wife at this time? Since I am already in front of my eyes, why didn't General Xue ask about Brother Ling's death, if there is another hidden story?" Seeing Xue Yao choked up at the words, Tang Ben felt very happy in his heart, " Xue Yao! Countless members of my clan lost their lives at your hands today. Now that I have reached this stage, I can just go with them. But I am afraid of being lonely on the road to Huangquan, so I have to prepare a companion for myself..."

Tang Ben waved his hand, and the Qingyun people behind him separated one after another, revealing a dead tree on the edge of the cliff.The dead wood sticks out far away, and a figure hangs below it, hanging on the cliff with only one rope, which is extremely thrilling.Chuyue!Xue Yao's eyes widened suddenly, his heart beat wildly, but his throat seemed to be tightly grasped, and he couldn't make a sound.

Tang Ben walked to the edge of the cliff: "Since General Xue cares about his wife, he will naturally recognize who is hanging over there. Ask your men to put down all their weapons, make way for retreat, and let me leave. Otherwise—" He raised his sword Come, make a gesture to chop.

Frightened and angry finally broke through the shackles in his throat, Xue Yao blurted out: "Wait a minute!"

Tang Ben stopped in mid-air, looking at Xue Yao with interest.

Xue Yao's gaze turned to Chuyue, and he couldn't look away.She was hung on the cliff, her slender figure swayed with the wind blowing between the cliffs, her life was hanging by a thread.Once the rope breaks, she will fall off the cliff, disappear without a trace like a falling leaf, and no trace can be found again.

Xue Yao felt that the blood all over his body was rushing up, and he couldn't help clenching his teeth: Brother, forgive me, I can't lose her.The cause of your death... I will try to find out.

He raised his hand and ordered everyone behind him: "All put down your weapons, retreat and make way for retreat!"

Bai Liqi wanted to say something, but seeing his red eyes, he knew it would be useless to talk too much, so he led the crowd, put down the sword in his hand as he said, and retreated far away.

Tang Ben led the remnants and fled into the dense forest again, and instantly disappeared into the sea like a drop of water.Xue Yao had no other intentions, so he rushed to the edge of the cliff, leaned on the sloping tree trunk, and stretched out his hand: "Chuyue!"

Chuyue was hanged on the edge of the cliff, she was so frightened that she couldn't even cry.Looking up and seeing that it was actually Xue Yao, tears immediately flowed down my face.She grabbed Xue Yao's hand, choked up and couldn't speak, but suddenly heard a slight "click".The two looked at the same time and saw a break in the bottom of the dead wood, they froze immediately and did not dare to move.
