However, they had no time to deal with Gu Qingyu now; to survive, they had to rely on themselves. No matter how loudly they shouted, it would be futile.
"Gu Qingyu, if you want to live, kill."
Brother Zhen shouted sternly at her and, without paying her any further attention, he took the lead and charged at the assassins.
"No, no, they... they're too frightening," Gu Qingyu shook her head violently.
At the moment, all she could sense was the fearsome killing intent emanating from those people. As for anything else, she couldn't feel it at all. How could they possibly fight them? They were nothing like the demonic beasts.
Moreover...
Even if she extremely disliked Empress Qian Jiyun and her husband, she had to admit that the couple was truly capable.
With both of them absent, how could they possibly win against so many assassins with just the people present? It was simply a path to certain death. If she resisted, she would surely die a horrible one.
