Warm medicine emits fragrance

Li Qiuping tightened his grip on the reins. He knew Fan Liuer was a headstrong person; she was even willing to run away, so she might actually jump out of the carriage.

Stopping the car disobeyed Li Chenbi's orders, but what if Fan Liuer jumped out and got injured...?

Gritting his teeth, he tightened the reins and stopped the carriage.

Fan Liuer lifted her skirt and stepped down from the carriage.

When Li Chenbi saw Fan Liuer walking towards him, the gloomy expression on his face began to crumble, and a hint of panic appeared in his eyes.

His Adam's apple bobbed as he spoke to Fan Liuer, his voice hoarse, "You go with Li Qiuping first. I'll explain this to you. Be good."

Fan Liuer stopped and looked at him, then turned her gaze to the person standing on him.

Fearing that Fan Liuer would really turn around and get back on the carriage, Qi Weiming immediately jumped off his horse and ran past Li Chenbi towards Fan Liuer.

Li Chenbi reached out to stop him, but Qi Weiming ran fast and he missed.

Li Qiuping jumped down from the carriage, drew his sword, rushed in front of Fan Liuer, and blocked Qi Weiming's path.

"Get out of the way!" Qi Weiming shouted sharply.

Li Qiuping pointed his sword at him, "General Qi, please do not overstep your bounds."

The moment Li Qiuping drew his sword, Qi Weiming's men jumped off their horses. One of them drew his sword and stood in front of Li Chenbi, shouting at Li Qiuping, "Let go of my master!"

This scene happened in the blink of an eye. Fan Liuer had never seen anything like it before and was so frightened that she took a step back.

Qi Weiming originally intended to draw his sword directly, but seeing the fear on Fan Liuer's face, he held back.

He turned to look at Li Chenbi, "You can't stop me today. I don't want to scare her. Have your men move aside."

Li Chenbi's eyes darkened, and his gaze upon him carried a sharp killing intent.

"Can't stop you?" With that, he raised his hand and struck the soldier who was pointing his sword at him. The force of his palm hit the soldier's abdomen, knocking him back and causing him to loosen his grip on the sword hilt.

Li Chenbi flicked his finger on the blade, causing the sword to flip upwards. He used his wheelchair to flip and leap up, catching the sword as he landed firmly on the ground.

Two quick-thinking soldiers reacted and drew their swords, rushing towards him. He twirled his sword, and the silver light flashed as a sharp blade streaked past. The two soldiers were wounded and fell to the ground, their blood splattering onto him.

He was also thrown forward by the backlash of his internal energy, and only managed to steady himself by using his sword to support himself on the ground.

He looked up at the remaining soldiers.

Several soldiers immediately retreated, their eyes filled with fear. At this moment, Li Chenbi's face was stained with bright red blood, his eyes were red, and he stared at them like a vengeful ghost.

They didn't expect Li Chenbi to actually do it, after all, they were all on the same side.

No one dared to step forward anymore.

Li Chenbi turned around and looked at Qi Weiming, "If you don't want your people to die, then get lost."

Qi Weiming was also astonished. He hadn't expected Li Chenbi to be so utterly unscrupulous. His voice turned cold, "Do you know what you're doing?"

"If I report this to General Yan..."

Li Chenbi interrupted him, "If you don't leave, you'll die before them."

Qi Weiming gripped his sword tightly. He had finally seen Fan Liuer, and he was unwilling to leave like this.

He stared at Li Chenbi, his gaze lingering on his legs.

He clearly saw when Li Chenbi landed that his injured leg did not exert any force.

Moreover, he is not in good condition right now; he is just putting on a brave face. If he were to forcefully exert his internal energy again, he would definitely suffer a backlash.

As for Li Qiuping, he would inevitably be distracted with Li Chenbi injured.

I am not without a chance of winning.

"Then let's see if you can stop me." With that, he drew his sword and swung it at Li Qiuping.

Li Qiuping immediately accepted the challenge, and the two swords clashed, producing a piercing sound.

Fan Liuer was so frightened that she immediately took two steps back, afraid that she would be affected.

If this fight hadn't started because of her, she would have run away as fast as she could, getting as far away from such a dangerous situation as possible.

Li Chenbi used his sword as a crutch, leaning on it as he slowly walked towards Fan Liuer.

Seeing this, Qi Weiming tried to stop him, but the next second he was entangled by Li Qiuping and was pulled to the side.

Fan Liuer looked at Li Chenbi approaching, and saw the bloodstains on his face that were still wet. Fear and resistance welled up in her heart.

She knew Li Chenbi was not a good person; he was notorious for his ruthlessness. But knowing was one thing, seeing it with one's own eyes was another.

Li Chenbi walked up to her, his gaze falling on her face, taking in the fear in her eyes.

My heart felt heavy and depressed, and a hint of anger and grievance rose within me.

Are you afraid of me?

Fan Liuer couldn't answer, and the look in Li Chenbi's eyes made her afraid to reply.

She had always thought that Li Chenbi wouldn't really do anything to her; no matter what she did, he would never kill her.

But just now, it was as if she was meeting Li Chenbi for the first time.

He really would kill; he would not hesitate to draw his sword and take away those who stood in his way.

Li Chenbi suppressed his pent-up emotions and softened his voice, "Go inside first, I'll explain to you after I've dealt with this."

His tone was suggestive.

The person in front of her seemed to have transformed back into the Li Chenbi she knew.

Fan Liuer knew she should listen to him now, obediently go inside, and wait for him to give her an explanation later.

This is the best choice.

This is the safest option.

But that also means she will completely lose her freedom, and her fear, dread, and compromise will become the cage that Li Chenbi uses to imprison her.

She didn't want that.

She looked at Li Chenbi, forcing herself to ignore the bloodstains on his face, "If you don't want me to be afraid of you, then let me know what the truth is."

Li Chenbi's eyes flickered slightly, his gaze fixed on her, and his voice lowered further, "Does it matter what the truth is? No matter what the truth is, it won't change anything."

"Then why are you afraid to let me know?"

Li Chenbi remained silent for a moment, then looked away, his voice turning completely cold.

"Go in."

Fan Liuer bit her lip, her hands unconsciously tightening around the money box.

"If I don't listen to you, will you kill me?"

Li Chenbi suddenly looked at her, his eyes filled with disbelief and anger. "You think I would kill you?"

"Fan Liuer, do you have any conscience at all?!"

Beneath the anger lay an uncontrollable bitterness.

Fan Liuer breathed a slight sigh of relief; Li Chenbi's reaction gave her some confidence.

"Then don't hide it from me. Can you hide it from me forever?"

Li Chenbi stared at her, their eyes met, and Fan Liuer did not back down.

Li Chenbi remained silent, his emotions growing increasingly complex.

Fan Liuer glanced at his back and saw that the fight behind him was getting more and more intense, and both of them were injured.

She didn't care whether Li Chenbi agreed or not, and spoke to the two of them.

"Stop hitting him!"

"Stop!"

Upon hearing the sound, Qi Weiming dodged Li Qiuping's sword and withdrew his hand.

Li Qiuping took advantage of his moment to stop, then secretly kicked him before he finally stopped.

Qi Weiming was kicked and staggered back two steps, glaring at Li Qiuping, "You!"

Li Qiuping said calmly, "Sorry, I couldn't stop myself."
