"No Wedding Unless Enemies and Lovers" 《不是冤家不拜堂》Chapter 139

 Lian Xin never imagined, having been locked up in the carriage for so long there would be a day where she would see the daylight and had not been sent to death on coming out.

Ji Ling Xue told her about finding the gotu kola, in front of Yuchi Gong Ru, she immediately declared: "I've been living in the mountains all my life, I know a bit about finding herbs, I will do my best to help you find it."

Yuchi Gong Ru nodded, looking at Lian Xin, this girl had been brought back by his men to help his poison, this was the first time he had seen her, she was rather delicate and pretty, if his poison acted up, he really would be hesitant to take her blood.

Yuchi Gong Ru nodded, letting Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin take the lead, the other guards followed behind them, Yuchi Gong Ru was supported up the mountain, that girl in blue had a frail body, with a few steps she would be overwhelmed with tiredness, paralysed on the ground unable to move.

Yuchi Gong Ru glanced at her in disregard, giving a subordinate by his side a look, Ji Ling Xue who was in front turned her head to see a bloody scene, the girl in blue laid on the ground eyes wide open, a trace of blood lingered on her lips, her hand was held by a guard, blood flowing into the water pouch in his hand.

She was already used to the perverted Yuchi Gong Ru's murderous methods, Ji Ling Xue turned to look elsewhere, silently grieving over that girl's short lived life.

"Ah!" Lian Xin turned pale, she let out half an ah before her mouth was covered, Ji Ling Xue pulled on her hand, shaking her head, indicating for her to not look.

Facing such a calm Ji Ling Xue, Lian Xin composed herself, tugging her lips into a smile, the two of them continued forward, but the way up the mountain wasn't as easy as before, Lian Xin lowered her head not speaking, her gaze fixed on the grass beside the path.

Two days before it had snowed, the temperature in the mountains was a little low, the thick snow had not melted, rustling noise coming from under their feet.

Behind them, Yuchi Gong Ru impatiently urged: "Have you found it?"

Ji Ling Xue turned her head, sticking out her tongue: "Don't rush, when nervous its easy to forget what you're looking for."

Yuchi Gong Ru bared his teeth, not saying anymore, he only used his eyes to signal two guards to watch them closely, don't let Ji Ling Xue run off, that woman was still useful.

Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin stooped in front of an underbush pretending to look for gotu kola, Yuchi Gong Ru's guards were staring at them from behind, because they couldn't communicate with each other.

The further the two of them climbed up the mountain, the snow beneath their feet were thicker, maybe because they were thinking a lot, they didn't feel the cold, in a blink of an eye the two of them had reached the mountain top, in the piercing wind the sound of a wolf howling was heard.

Soon three grey wolves ran towards Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin, the guards didn't need Yuchi Gong Ru to give the order, they rushed forward to attack those wolves, Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin held hands and ran to hide behind the snow covered trees to watch the fight.

Yuchi Gong Ru's guards were rather talented, the wild wolves were very strong, finding that they were no match, immediately it howled into the sky calling for its companions.

Maybe these wolves had been starving for too long in the mountains, now it was heavily snowing, the prey in the mountain were naturally hibernating, they were worried about not having food to eat, these guards were the perfect meal for them.

Yuchi Gong Ru's face sank, his mood was already bad, the wolves were like a spark, lighting up the rage in his mind.

The remaining two guards looked at Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin, he took out a short blade from his waist, heading towards the wolves.

Ji Ling Xue narrowed her eyes calmly looking at the scene, praying in her mind for the king of the wild wolves to appear, bite that perverted Yuchi Gong Ru to death, it would be good to just injure him to vent her anger.

Lian Xin saw there were more and more wild wolves, Yuchi Gong Ru had a finite number of people, no matter how good they were they would be worn down by exhaustion, the wild wolves were currently winning, she was rather impatient, even though she really hated Yuchi Gong Ru, but if they died, the wolves would target them next.

Lian Xin asked: "There are so many wild wolves, will they win?"

Ji Ling Xue said: "They should, facing death, a person's potential is unlimited, what's more Yuchi Gong Ru is like a wolf himself."

"Ah!" A guard had his arm bit by a wolf, the green eyes of the wolf behind him flashed, suddenly jumping onto his comrade's back, opening its mouth to firmly bite that unfortunate guard's neck, in a split second blood spurted out, the wild wolves became more feral on smelling the fresh blood.

Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin took a cold breath in on seeing this, observing a moment of silence for that guard, inside they couldn't help take joy in the calamity.

Yuchi Gong Ru's eyes had already turned red, slicing off the head of a wolf nearby, hearing the tragic scream, he cut off the wild wolf's head like slicing a melon, raising his foot to kick the wolf away, afterwards he turned around throwing the knife out, hitting the wolf who was biting the guard's neck right in the neck.

That movement was smooth, incomparably accurate, Ji Ling Xue's eyes sparkled seeing this.

Lian Xin couldn't help blurt out an assessment: "So brutal."

Ji Ling Xue smiled, towards Yuchi Gong Ru's perverseness, she no longer wanted to evaluate him.

That guard used his strength to push off the dead wolf, pulling out the short blade from the wolf's neck, turning to throw it back too Yuchi Gong Ru, Yuchi Gong Ru heard the short blade cut through the air, raising his hand to catch it, the next moment stabbing it into the wolf's stomach in front of him, the sharp blade split open the wolf's stomach, a long trail of blood coming out, the intestines inside could be seen, the wolf raised its head in pain giving a hoarse mournful howl.

"Ahwooo..." The faint sound of a wolf came from a distant.

Ji Ling Xue said: "The alpha is appearing."

Lian Xin said: "How are there so many wolves on the mountain top, I heard that where there are a lot of wolves there must be treasure, I wonder if this rumour is rue."

Ji Ling Xue said: "Once these wolves have died, we can go to the mountain top and see."

She was very interested in rumours, but...with this pervert Yuchi Gong Ru here, she couldn't think about it.

Ji Ling Xue raised her head to look at the overcast sky, wondering what that Xiao Yi Chen was doing.

"Aichoo!" A certain prince walking along a mountain road gaze a loud sneeze.

Carrying a bamboo basket on his back, Bai Mo who was using a bamboo stick to poke around in the underbrush turned to say, "Prince, are you alright?"

The wind was strong in the mountains, wearing so little to keep your demeanour, see, you're sneezing.

Xiao Yi Chen rubbed his nose, waving his hand: "It's nothing, this prince thinks it must be Ji Ling Xue cursing me."

So many days had passed, Ji Ling Xue must be anxious? If she had fallen into the hands of the perverted faceless women murderer, she has been with them for so long, she must be so tired.

Bai Mo said: "The faceless corpse who was wearing the princess's clothes, are you sure its not your princess?"

Xiao Yi Chen said: "Of course it's not." Ji Ling Xue couldn't be dead.

Bai Mo didn't say anymore, if he did, Xiao Yi Chen would be even more anxious.

"Ahwoo..." The mournful cry of a wolf from a distance made Xiao Yi Chen halt in his steps, Bai Mo said: "Something seems to be going on at the mountain top, let's go see what's happening."

Bai Mo and Xiao Yi Chen used light martial arts, without using much strength they arrived at the snowy mountain top, from afar the two of them there were wolves all over the waist of the mountain, also a few people in black were facing off the wolves.

Bai Mo said: "Such a violent way to kill wolves, who are they?"

Xiao Yi Chen narrowed his eyes for a moment: "They're too far, I can't see them, let's go down to take a look."

At this moment Yuchi Gong Ru's men were weary as they fought the wolves, there were a lot of wolves here, killing a group there was another group, they had killed no less than a thousand wolves, their eyes red from the killing, their hands and feet were already numb.

The two guards watching over Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin saw Yuchi Gong Ru was fighting the alpha, they were anxious, they no longer cared about Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin who knew no martial arts, they rushed to help him.

Ji Ling Xue and Lian Xin on seeing there was an opportunity, they turned and ran, if they ran faster, they would be able to escape.

The two of them ran for a quarter of an hour, Lian Xin panting, stopped and looked back, she couldn't see Yuchi Gong Ru or the others coming after them, "We're currently safe?"

Ji Ling Xue pursed his lips, because behind Lian Xin was a graceful snow wolf bearing its teeth, seeing Ji Ling Xue's peculiar expression, Lian Xue turned her head sensing something behind her, the coldness of the wolf made her body turn cold, Lian Xin didn't even have the strength to cry out.

"Wolf...wolf...what are we going to do?" Lian Xin quickly retreated to Ji Ling Xue's side, they weren't that perverted Yuchi Gong Ru, they didn't have assistants or weapons, what's more she didn't even have poison powder on her.

Ji Ling Xue took the hairpin from her head as a weapon, firmly staring at the wolf in front of her, it really was too difficult to use such a short hairpin as a weapon to defend herself, but she had not choice.

"We're not going to die here right?" Lian Xin's cry came from behind her.

Ji Ling Xue pursed her lips without replying to her, the wolf suddenly leapt up waving its claw at Ji Ling Xue to attack her, Ji Ling Xue took on a stance unafraid to die, holding high the hairpin in both hands.

The wolf was mid-air, with Lian Xin's plaintive shriek, Ji Ling Xue closed her eyes.

The image of being torn to pieces by the wolf didn't appear, Ji Ling Xue opened her eyes, seeing the wolf on the ground still in an attacking stance, a long branch pierced into its body, struck in the heart to death.

A trace of reluctance could still be seen in the wolf's eyes.

Ji Ling Xue sighed in relief, they were safe.

Ji Ling Xue turned her head to look at the direction of the branch, seeing Xiao Yi Chen standing on a tree, wind blew about his cloak wildly, Ji Ling Xue was extremely moved at this moment, Xiao Yi Chen had finally come.

Xiao Yi Chen floated in the air landing beside Ji Ling Xue, pulling her into his arm, wrapping her trembling body in his cloak, "This prince came late, princess has been startled."

Ji Ling Xue waved her white hands to hit Xiao Yi Chen's chest, the next moment she opened her arms wide embracing him because she could see him alive.

Ji Ling Xue said: "You came a little late, you ought to be punished."

Xiao Yi Chen smiled: "Wait until we return to the prince's residence, princess can punish me whatever way."

Lian Xin: prince...princess...I am hearing this! 

Bai Mo opened his mouth to praise, his line of sight fell on Lian Xin who had her mouth wide open in shock, how come there was another girl here? Wasn't Ji Ling Xue with the faceless corpse's murderer? 

Bai Mo coughed once, can you not be so lovey dovey in front of his single self?
