This sword is blood red all over.

A closer look revealed that it was soaked with dripping blood.

A strong fishy smell assaulted my nostrils.

Jiang Wancheng's face turned pale, he almost wanted to vomit, and his whole body was trembling, but he gritted his teeth and did not scream.

Orion instantly raised his hand to deflect the sword edge.

"Be careful, the sword has no eyes."

Orion suppressed the murderous intent in his eyes and looked at the people in front of him who were drawing swords. It was King Duan and his bodyguard Hei Er.

King Duan also recognized the two of them and raised his hand to signal Hei Er to step back.

At this moment, in Qingyue Tower, blood was already flowing all over the ground, and corpses were lying everywhere.

A dozen assassins attacked the inn from all directions, but who knew that the person they wanted to assassinate had already quietly left the hunting center.

King Duan was calm and composed, as if he had already concluded that those assassins would have nowhere to escape today.

So he was not in a hurry to leave here. Instead, he stared at Jiang Wancheng and asked suspiciously: "Is it you? How did you escape from Qingyue Tower?"

The girl was clearly shaking with fear just now, but she didn't scream.

If she had screamed, she might have become a dead soul under the Black Second Sword.

Duan Wang's eyes flashed with amusement, considering how brave she was.

Orion swayed forward, blocking Jiang Wancheng behind him.

His expression was calm, but his eyes were slightly lowered, "It turns out to be you, young master. I heard that the restaurant is looking for someone noble. We ordinary people can hide and leave, but we are lucky."

Only then did King Duan look at the hunter in front of him carefully.

This man was nothing more than a tall, rough man.

That day at his home, although he felt that he was a little too vigilant, this girl could be easily kidnapped, so King Duan decided that this hunter was just a stupid villager who saw no use for her.

But what he just said was too calm and meant something.

What did he notice?
Hei Er raised his sword lightly, as if he would kill the hunter in front of him as soon as the prince gave the order.

Jiang Wancheng grabbed Orion's sleeve and looked nervously from the back.

She looked at Prince Duan and said softly: "Brother and I just want to go home."

Orion's hand behind his back made a crunching sound and was clenched into a fist.

The tense atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out, but at this moment, a sharp shout came from somewhere: "Prince Duan is not here! Chasing--"

Hei Er's expression changed upon hearing this, and he immediately whispered: "Master, it's time for us to leave."

King Duan suddenly looked at Jiang Wancheng and the two of them coldly, his eyes full of determination and murderous intent.

They must already know his identity.

Can't stay any longer.

So, an order was given: "Kill them."

It's like squeezing two ants to death, nothing serious.

After saying that, King Duan turned around and walked away quickly into the alley.

Jiang Wancheng's hands and feet suddenly felt cold, and he felt that the blood in his body began to flow backwards.

Hei Er came slowly with a blood sword in hand and an expressionless face.

Orion grabbed Jiang Wancheng and backed away step by step.

Suddenly, Hei Er's long sword was raised fiercely and stabbed straight at Orion——

Jiang Wancheng took a breath, and he didn't know where he got the strength to pull Orion away!

But Orion seemed to have set a stake, and just led her back quickly to avoid the sword wind, and only touched her waist when watching the sword stabbing her.

"Ding--"

A crisp sound.

Orion raised his arm, took the blade with his bare hand, and punched Hei Er's sword open.

Hei Er looked shocked.At this moment, they had retreated to the main street.

Hei Er's sword caused the already panicked people to watch and point.

He could only lower his eyes to temporarily suppress his murderous intent.

No longer eager to fight, he quickly turned around and left quickly and invisible.

He left so neatly that even Jiang Wancheng didn't expect it.

Although Jiang Wancheng breathed a sigh of relief, he quickly looked at Orion's left hand.

If her eyes hadn't been blurred just now, she seemed to...see something dark wrapped around Orion's hand?
It is no longer suitable to stay here for long.

Orion dragged Jiang Wancheng and said, "Let's go, it's time for us to go home!"

Jiang Wancheng also knew that they were in trouble and had to leave this bloody town as soon as possible.

The two quickly returned to the backyard of Qingyue Tower.

The assassins have all left.

The entire Qingyue Tower seemed to have been washed with blood, dilapidated and fragmented.

The waiter in the shop was seriously injured.

The shopkeeper went to invite the doctor and the able-bodied young men to carry out the corpses from the house one by one.

Manager Liu was sitting at the gate with a dead look on his face. Seeing everything completely destroyed, he also wanted to die.

Seeing Jiang Wancheng and Orion coming to pick up the donkey cart, Manager Liu came up and said a few words.

"Girl, I wanted to ask you about that pheasant and hare thing, but now it seems... ugh!!"

"What kind of bad luck did I have for eight lifetimes to end up in this kind of thing!!"

Not to mention doing business, if the restaurant is going to reopen, I'm afraid it won't be until March or May.

Jiang Wancheng could only comfort him: "Don't be too sad. Originally, I thought the price you paid for my brother's prey was too low. Now... forget it."

"Manager Liu, if you think about it, you are still alive, which is more important than anything else."

"Leave the green hills without worrying about no firewood."

Manager Liu stared at her with wide eyes: "You...you girl! You are thinking about this in your heart! Besides, what kind of comforting words are you talking about?"

"Hey!! That's all. It was your brother who asked me to keep all these rabbit furs for him, so I gave him this price!"

"Now it seems that I can't kill this rabbit for the time being, so I'll give it all back to you!"

Jiang Wancheng looked at Orion.

He wants to keep all the fur?

What?
When Orion heard this, he looked at Manager Liu: "Do you want to return the goods?"

Manager Liu shouted angrily: "Why retreat? Wait a while, when our Qingyue Tower reopens, and you can bring them all back to me!"

That was also after March or May.

This batch of pheasants and hares should have been eaten long ago. Wouldn’t it be necessary to send a new batch by then?
Orion frowned and took out the silver bag from his arms.

He took out five taels from it and gave it to Manager Liu.

"In that case, let's talk about the rest later. I will take back all these hares and pheasants, but please keep the deer deer manager here."

Manager Liu didn't shirk anymore and quickly took back the five taels of silver and moved the pheasants and rabbits back to the donkey cart.

In fact, the three of them knew it very well.

Keeping these pheasants and hares now is also a loss-making business for Qingyue Tower.

Orion was willing to take the initiative to refund five taels of silver and keep the deer, which was a great favor to Guanshi Liu.

From now on, Manager Liu will owe them once.

After loading the prey, Jiang Wancheng and the Orion no longer stayed any longer, and quickly left Qingyang Town with a whip.

On the way back, Jiang Wancheng remembered something. She hadn't even had time to buy cotton and cloth yet!
Thinking of this, her face turned bitter.

How will she survive this winter?
The animal skin draped over the shoulders belongs to a hunter, so you can't just... steal someone's love directly, right? (End of chapter)
