Xue Liang murmured, "Pardon the intrusion."
With that, he prepared to lead Xue Tao and the others away.
However, in her panic, Xue Tao happened to catch sight of Su Qing, who was being protected by the Hidden Guards near a wall.
Su Qing heard the commotion and casually lifted his gaze for a glance.
Xue Tao didn't know where she found the courage, but she suddenly shouted,
"Brother, someone's trapped! We have to save him!"
Such a loud shout immediately drew the attention of both the Hidden Guards and the black-clad Assassins.
Su Ye watched from a distance. 'This is more than just a little foolish.'
As Xue Tao's words faded, Xue Liang knew there was no longer any way to make a safe retreat.
He even saw a few black-clad men instantly turn to charge them.
The black-clad Assassins rushed over in an instant, but the Hidden Guards were right behind them.
SCHLICK! A long saber instantly lopped off the head of the nearest black-clad Assassin.
