Seeing this, Liu Yue frowned and swiftly moved her hand. A small arrow instantly shot out, arriving first even though it was shot later, and struck away the arrow darting toward the Emperor, Xuan Yuan Yi.
Although Xuan Yuan Yi’s martial art skills was not really proficient, he was still an Emperor. He did not lose his management capabilities even in such a chaotic situation.
Turning his head, he saw that Liu Yue and Du Gu Ye had arrived. Immediately overjoyed, he exclaimed, “Liu Yue, quickly go. Xuan Yuan Che is still behind. We were ambushed just now. Xuan Yuan Che stayed behind to deal with the assassins and let me escape first. Quick, go to him!”
Xuan Yuan Yi explained the situation concisely with a few sentences.
Liu Yue instantly put on a cold expression when she heard the Emperor and realized that this was a real assassination attempt against Xuan Yuan Yi.

Riding on the horse, Liu Yue dashed forward without looking back into the dense forest.
Roars and war cries were heard as shadows and flashes of swords and blades flew everywhere. The strong odor of blood permeated the dense forest.
Only his two sons, Xuan Yuan Cheng and Xuan Yuan Che, along with General Mu Rong, General Fei and a few Royal Guards had followed the Emperor Xuan Yuan Yi during the hunt. There were not many people by his side.
Who would have thought that in their own territory, they would encounter such a large-scale assassination attempt? Xuan Yuan Che was obviously undermanned, as many royal guards retreated with Emperor Xuan Yuan Yi and Crown Prince Xuan Yuan Cheng. There were only about ten people left to fight with Xuan Yuan Che in the dense forest, while reinforcements had not arrived yet.
The assassins wore green clothes. It was a light green that could easily blend
