"Charge together! Cut them down!"
Some soldiers echoed with fervor.
Guard Captain Liu took the lead, charging out ahead, and the rest of the soldiers, also fired up by hot blood—mainly because they saw Gu Jiao carrying an injured person on her back and truly thought she was helpless.
Little did they know, Gu Jiao had tied the old marquis tightly to her back with cloth strips. She freed her hands, one clutching a spear tightly, and the other tossing a small backpack to Gu Chengfeng.
Immediately after, she swung her hand backward, throwing a black fire bead, blasting a bloody path!
The huge commotion shocked the entire Governor's Mansion, even the soldiers of Chen Country stationed outside were alarmed by the series of loud bangs. However, Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng moved extremely quickly. By the time a large army arrived to encircle them, they had already scaled the walls of the Governor's Mansion and mounted horses hidden nearby in advance.
