Chapter 1138: 555 Counterattack (second update)_3

Fortunately, those men didn’t stop him.

He quickened his pace and dashed into the post station.

It wasn’t until he was inside that Mo Qianxue slightly parted the curtains, "Who are you?"

The grey-robed man leading them said, "The young master sent us to pick you up. Have you brought the person?"

Mo Qianxue opened the curtain further, revealing someone unconscious inside, "I have brought them."

He said, "Hand them over to us."

"Hold on!" Mo Qianxue pulled out a dagger and pressed it against Gu Jiao’s neck.

He frowned, "What are you doing?"

Mo Qianxue replied, "I think my life is probably in danger too. To prevent you from turning on me after using me, I need to get to a safe place before handing the person over to you."

The grey-robed man narrowed his eyes dangerously.

Mo Qianxue said coldly, "The young master needs her alive. If she dies now, you won’t be able to explain it to the young master. As for me, if I escape, that’s my own business, and the young master will hunt me down later. It won’t be on your heads!"

The grey-robed man gripped the reins tightly, "Fine, where do you want to go?"

Mo Qianxue responded, "Fen County, thirty li from here. A quick horse and a lashing whip, half a 2 hours should suffice."

The grey-robed man signaled to his men, and a group of them surrounded the carriage, with one dismounting to act as Mo Qianxue’s coachman.

The group sped toward Fen County on their horses. Halfway there, Mo Qianxue suddenly shouted, "Wait! Stop! She’s going to throw up! She’s drugged with ’Seven-Day Drunkenness’; if she chokes while vomiting, it will be troublesome!"

Those skilled in martial arts naturally knew that vomiting while semi-conscious was very dangerous, so the group had to stop the carriage.

The grey-robed man, mounted on a fine horse, said to the man acting as coachman, "Check on what’s happening."

The subordinate turned to lift the curtain.

A shiny silver needle whizzed out; it was too close and too fast for him to dodge, and it was already too late to avoid. He screamed in agony as he tumbled down from the carriage.

"It’s a trick!"

The grey-robed man drew the treasured sword from his waist.

Another volley of silver needles was fired, and the men waved their swords to block them.

And Mo Qianxue, she swiftly cut the reins of the carriage and rode away on a horse at breakneck speed!

Just as the grey-robed man was about to give the order to stop her, a sudden fire erupted inside the carriage, engulfing it in flames!

"The hostage!"
