After nine lifetimes of reincarnation, the yandere villainous heroine descends.

"Wen Qingning, even if you had wings, you wouldn't be able to leave now. You'd better come with us obediently."

"It is a man with a hideous scar on his face on the right," he said coldly.

The girl named Wen Qingning had beautiful features and wore a light green embroidered dress. Her slender waist trembled slightly as she held onto the hand of an equally beautiful woman beside her.

"Who sent you?"

Wen Qingning's voice was as clear and melodious as a nightingale's song.

"Miss Wen, there's no need to ask such a foolish question. In this situation, even a god can't save you. Just face reality and come with me."

The scarred man said.

Wen Qingning's face was pale and she gritted her teeth: "I'll go with you, but can you spare my sister?"

"If we die, we die together; if we go, we go together."

The girl beside her said with tears in her beautiful eyes.

Wen Qingning looked at the scarred man with a resolute gaze, hoping he could give her a satisfactory answer.

Unfortunately, the scarred man simply shook his head and said, "Someone specifically requested the two young ladies from the Wen family, so neither of them can leave."

Wen Qingning's beautiful face was deathly pale, and her eyes held an abyss of despair.

"Young Miss, Second Young Miss, you must leave quickly! I'll hold them off!"

At this moment, the guard holding the knife resolutely rushed towards the scarred man opposite him.

The next moment, the scarred man slashed forward with his long sword at an extremely fast speed.

tear.

The sound of a blade slicing through flesh rang out.

The guard's body immediately collapsed to the side, warm blood flowing from the cut on his neck.

"A mere fourth-rank official dares to wield a sword? Take the two young ladies with you and leave! Remember to be gentle."

The scarred man gave the order in a cold voice.

Seeing the crowd closing in, the two Wen family women were completely plunged into despair.

The area was surrounded by green forests, and the two of them were weak women; even if they ran, where could they run to?

In despair, Wen Qingning secretly reached for the hairpin in her hair. She would rather commit suicide than let these people take her back.

"Is Yu Ning afraid?"

Wen Qingning said resolutely.

"Sister isn't afraid, and neither is Yu Ning."

Wen Yuning shook her head, her face pale, while clutching a hairpin in her hand.

"Stop them!"

The scarred man noticed something amiss with the two women and quickly spoke up to stop them.

The two young ladies of the Wen family immediately grabbed their hairpins and were about to commit suicide.

"oops!"

In the midst of this tense situation, a clear, crisp sound suddenly rang out from the woods.

Everyone froze for a moment.

The scarred man's tiger-like, bloodthirsty gaze swept over them instantly: "Who's there?"

Shen Shuchou turned around and looked at Jiang Qianqiu, who was covering her mouth.

Jiang Qianqiu knew she had done something wrong, and dared not look at her husband.

She had just accidentally stepped on a tree branch, and the tense atmosphere made her heart race, which is why she unconsciously cried out "Ouch!"

"I'll say it again, whoever's there, come out right now." The scarred man's cold voice continued.

Shen Shuchou suddenly felt somewhat helpless.

He genuinely didn't want to get involved in this mess, and even though the two women were about to be arrested at any moment, Shen Shuchou intended to remain indifferent.

They were only going to come out after they left, but now that they've been discovered, they have no choice but to get involved.

Sigh! Never mind.

Shen Shuchou thought to himself.

Then he told Jiang Qianqiu to stay where she was.

Shen Shuchou, dressed in simple white clothes, calmly walked out of the woods.

As Shen Shuchou came into view, the scarred man's eyes remained fixed on him.

The voice that just spoke was clearly female, so why did a man walk out?

The scarred man's eyes were full of vigilance, but as he looked him over, he couldn't sense anything about him that posed a threat.

Could this just be an ordinary person passing by?

However, even ordinary people are not spared by the scarred man; anyone who witnesses this scene will die.

The two young ladies from the Wen family were also puzzled, saying, "Oh dear, it's a woman's voice. Why is a man coming out?"

Wen Yuning suddenly remembered something and whispered, "Sister, isn't this the man we saw passing by here half an hour ago? I remember he was followed by a little girl."

Upon hearing Yu Ning's words, Wen Qing Ning immediately remembered as well.

"It's a pity that we dragged them down with us."

Wen Qingning sighed.

"Sis, I feel like this is like a hero rescuing a damsel in distress in a book."

Wen Yuning's eyes sparkled with excitement, and her beautiful face was filled with anticipation.

Wen Qingning shook her head and didn't say anything. Her younger sister usually liked to read popular novels when she had nothing to do.

What kind of expert would appear here and happen to run into her and save her?

"If one comes out, don't hide the second one either."

The scarred man said casually.

Since they're just ordinary people, it's easy to deal with them; we can just kill them.

It's like accidentally stepping on an ant while walking down the street.

Would you care? No, I wouldn't care.

They wouldn't even glance at it, and even felt that it might have soiled their shoes.

Shen Shuchou remained calm, his eyes seemingly devoid of any emotion, and said indifferently, "I am enough on my own, why do I need two?"

Shen Shuchou's relaxed demeanor made the scarred man sneer.

"I hope your mouth stays as hard as this when you die, kid."

The scarred man revealed a cruel smile.

The already ferocious face, coupled with the wide-open mouth, became even more terrifying.

"Brother, let me handle this guy. I guarantee he'll suffer a terrible fate."

A man carrying a knife walked toward Shen Shuchou with a fierce look in his eyes.

Shen Shuchou's eyes remained unmoved as he casually picked up a blood-stained longsword from the ground.

Then, with a casual flick of the wrist, the bloodstains naturally fell off.

The sword's blade, as smooth as a mirror, gleamed with a chilling light.

Clang!

The sound of swords cutting through the air echoed through the forest.

The scarred man's pupils contracted sharply, and the hairs on his body stood on end.

A sense of impending death loomed over him.

Shen Shuchou, who had just appeared utterly insignificant in his eyes, now resembled a dragon emerging from the sea, carrying with it a terrifying force.

The subordinate who had been there earlier was now three steps away from him.

Seeing Shen Shuchou pick up his sword, a cold smile appeared on his lips. He immediately prepared to end this arrogant ant with a single stroke.

"slow."

The scarred man was about to speak up to stop him.

Then they saw the sword in Shen Shuchou's hand move.

The sword strike was unremarkable, its trajectory seemingly slow, yet the scarred man couldn't even catch it with the naked eye.

Click!

The sword was drawn, but something seemed to have broken off.

Bright red blood splattered through the air, and a huge head was tossed high into the air.

boom!

He fell to the ground headless and disemboweled.

The scene was completely silent.

Everyone stared in shock at the white-clad man holding a sword not far away.

What's even more surprising is that there wasn't a single drop of blood on him, and even the sword that had slain him was now completely dry.

How is that possible? He clearly used a sword, so how come there's not a drop of blood?

Gurgle.

The scarred man swallowed hard, his face looking as ugly as if his mother had died.

At this moment, Wen Yuning excitedly shook her sister Wen Qingning's arm vigorously.

His face was excited, as if to say, "See, I wasn't wrong."

"Who exactly are you, and why are you getting involved?"

The scarred man's face turned grim.

"Didn't you call me out?"

Shen Shuchou asked curiously.

Upon hearing this, the scarred man instantly wanted to slap himself twice, thinking, "Serves you right for being so foul-mouthed."

"If you leave now, you can pretend nothing happened. Otherwise, the people behind me won't let you off the hook."

"I'm nervous," the scarred man said.

"Are you out of your mind? You called me out, and now you want me to leave. What do you want from me?"

Shen Shuchou said calmly.

"Pfft."

Wen Yuning smiled slightly, but when she noticed someone looking at her, she immediately covered her mouth.

The scarred man's face was as black as charcoal, and he knew in his heart that this person was definitely not someone he could handle.

Because he really could kill them all by himself.

This person is someone who cannot be unknown in the martial arts world.

No matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn't figure out who this master on the martial arts ranking list was.

Damn it! How come I can run into a master in this godforsaken place?

Do these masters all prefer to live in seclusion in the mountains?

The scarred man broke down in his mind and cursed loudly.

Then he thought of a way to save his life and immediately looked at Wen Qingning and said, "Miss Wen, it is Lin Yuan who wants to arrest you. We are just doing our job for money. I hope you will be magnanimous and let us go."

Upon hearing Lin Yuan's name, Wen Qingning's expression stiffened, as did Wen Yuning's.

She never expected that the person who wanted to capture her would be Lin Yuan, because this person was her childhood betrothed, that is, her nominal fiancé.

Now her fiancé wants to capture her. Why is that?

Why did he do that?

Wen Qingning's face turned ashen as she asked the scarred man.

The scarred man shook his head and said, "I'm not entirely sure either, but it seems they're offering you up to someone to curry favor with, but I don't know who that person is."

These words struck Wen Qingning like a thunderbolt, and in an instant she understood the whole story.

They also knew who Lin Yuan wanted to curry favor with: the Third Prince Zhao Hongye.

Zhao Hongye was obsessed with women and harmed many women in the countryside.

He left behind a trail of sins, but since he was the Third Prince, almost everyone turned a blind eye.

Even the emperor couldn't be bothered to care about his son.

Zhao Hongye had pursued her, but she had rejected him every time. After a while, Zhao Hongye made a bold statement that one day he would get her.

Wen Qingning didn't care at first, because her father was the prime minister and she thought Zhao Hongye wouldn't dare to do anything to her.

But to her utter surprise, her itinerary was revealed when she traveled with the Chamber of Commerce, a fact she had only told her fiancé, Lin Yuan.
