Bai Ruozhu looked at him, her eyes brimming with tears that she couldn't hold back anymore, spilling down her cheeks. She herself didn't notice, still trying to offer him a smile that was somewhere between crying and laughing.

Jiang Yichun's heart clenched suddenly. He hadn't protected her after all; he had been too careless. He hadn't expected that the enemy would prepare such a giant stone and even tamper with it, dousing it in an ample amount of kerosene.

The whistle was the assassin's signal; the killers had lost their advantage and were now retreating in defeat. But having been poisoned, their speed was reduced; many were killed or injured, and some were captured, only to immediately take poison and commit suicide.
