Chapter 1401: I Don't Want Him to Die

exts and naturally knew that a woman's body would experience many discomforts after pregnancy. He also wondered if the people around his mother could take good care of her.Uncle Wu is such a rough and...Daliang had lived for so many years, even now as just a guard of the Ye Mansion, but in his life he'd never encountered anyone who yelled at him.

So after Xiao Qin called out, he was a little dazed and stood there for a moment.

From Xiaoqin's perspective, it seemed that Daliang had been indifferent all along, not even thinking about taking Ye Er to see a doctor. She instinctively wanted to call Qingya, at least Qingya would listen to her orders.

But the moment he thought of Qingya, his mind flashed back to her being struck on the neck by a black-clad man’s palm and fainting immediately.

She really couldn't think of any way out, the more she panicked, the more tears flowed from her eyes.

Ye Er couldn't bear to see her crying like this, wanting to go over, but was stopped by Da Liang who had come to his senses, "Sir, it's dangerous."

Xiao Qin also saw Ye Er's actions. After Da Liang finished speaking, she almost cried and begged, "You...don't come over."

The man in black roared at Xiao Qin, who had spoken up, "Shut your mouth if you don't want to die!"

He was too lazy to watch these people dawdle. His intention wasn't focused on the woman beneath the sword anyway. Right now, he was staring intently at Ye Er, "If you want her to live, come here and exchange yourself for her."

Ye Er's gaze lingered on the sword pressed tightly against Xiao Qin's neck for a moment, his expression dark and grim.

But he couldn't just stand by and watch Xiaoqin get into trouble. After a moment of silence, he gestured to Daliang to step aside.

"Master, it is not permissible."

Daliang looked very disapproving. These people were obviously here for their elders' lives. Their elder was already injured, and if they fell into this group's hands again, they would surely die.

Xiao Qin also cried out, "Don't listen to him, run away quickly, Daliang, quickly take your family members away!"

"Shut up." The man in black had completely lost his patience with Xiaoqin. After yelling, he pressed on her acupuncture point to silence her.

He then turned to Ye Er, coldly saying, "Make your men stop and throw their swords aside."

As he spoke, the sword at his neck shifted slightly, making the blood trickling down Xiaoqin's throat even more visible.

The tone was threatening.

Before Ye Er could speak, Daliang nervously lowered his voice and said, "Sir, absolutely not."

Yet Ye Er knew full well that once he stopped them, once the people around him threw their swords aside, he and those beside him would be at the mercy of others, left vulnerable to slaughter.

But he couldn't bear to see Xiaoqin treated like this.

Then, with almost no hesitation, he told Daliang as well as Xiao Liang who was still fighting the black-clothed man and several brothers from Qingyun Pavilion, "Stop it, you all go."

To make them stop and lay down their swords would be the same as making them die with him, which he didn't want to see. So the best way he could think of was to have them all leave.

Daliang and the others stared at him in shock. After all, their master and Miss Xiaoqin were both helpless individuals. Now that he was asking them to leave, it meant their master was prepared to die.

Before Daliang could retort, they heard the adults say again, "Daliang, I will take over the governorship and you bring her back to the Hou residence. Ensure her safe return."

Xiaoqin listened to Ye Er's words, every word and syllable. Her lips moved, wanting to tell Ye Er not to be so foolish, wanting him not to care about her, wanting him to leave immediately.

She has eyes, and it is clear to see that she has the large and small brothers, Liang and Xiao Liang, along with those four people who came later. They have the ability to safely escort Master Ye away from here.

Now, because of her, they are all held back.

Now the person holding her hostage is still trying to use her life to exchange for the lives of Lord Ye and those people.

She admitted she didn't want to die, but thinking about Ye Er and the others perishing because of her, she didn't want to, didn't want to see such an ending.

If she must die today, she would rather die herself than see Ye Er get into trouble because of her.

But now she couldn't make a sound, could only cry with her eyes, shaking her head desperately at Ye Er.

Even as the shaking of her head caused the swordsman in black to cut her deeper, she didn't feel a single bit of pain.

The man in black frowned. "It seems you truly don't want to live. If that's the case, I wouldn't mind fulfilling your wish. However... County Princess, your face is so beautiful. To have it sliced and diced before death, wouldn't that be a rather pleasant way to torment someone"

"As he spoke, the sword in his hand truly surged towards Xiao Qin's face. Ye Er was startled and immediately raised his hand, “Stop! Let her go. You can do whatever you want to me, after all, your target is me. Just let her go.”

A cold killing intent flashed in Daliang's eyes. He was considering whether to seize the opportunity while the man's sword had left the county magistrate's neck and charge forward directly.

But he was worried that if he rushed forward, he might not be as fast as the man's sword strike, and the county princess could very well die under his blade.

Just as he hesitated, a sharp arrow pierced the air and instantly transfixed the black-clad man who had held the county princess hostage.

Xiaoqin reacted extremely quickly at this moment, immediately pushing away the man in black and running towards Ye Er with all her might.

As an arrow appeared, followed by many more, they shot straight towards the black-clad people in the crowd.

They had wanted to seize Xiaoqin again, but now there was no opportunity.

Xiao Qin had already run to Ye Er's side, and before she could react, Ye Er hugged her tightly in his arms.

Xiao Liang, having broken free from the black-clad men's grasp, rushed to Ye Er's side and, along with Da Liang, shielded Ye Er and Xiao Qin behind them.

Now they also saw that the arrows were shot from the roof. Some people had been standing on the roof at some point, and with their help, the men in black realized that today Ye Er could not be killed. They immediately fled.

The four men from Qingyun Pavilion bowed to the people on the roof, who turned out to be brothers from their own pavilion.

Before the men in black made their move, the people of Qingyun Pavilion guessed that today's visitors might not be just the few men in black who arrived at first. So, before they showed themselves, they sent a signal to other members of Qingyun Pavilion requesting support.

Fortunately, they arrived in time, or else Lord Ye would have been in grave danger today.

Ye Er didn't care about his own injuries at this moment. Thinking of how he had almost lost Xiao Qin just now, he was terrified. This time, for the first time, he followed his heart and did what he had only dared to do in his dreams: holding her tightly.

Xiaoqin also had a moment of fear, but she recovered faster than Ye Er. She realized that Ye Er was injured and the wound was still bleeding non-stop. She suddenly came to her senses.

But she was afraid that her movements would worsen Ye Er's injuries, and she didn't dare to push him away with force. She couldn't speak because someone had silenced her acupoints, so she couldn't tell him to let go.

Just as she was crying frantically, Ye Er suddenly lost his strength and collapsed onto her. a talkThe more Xizi Ke'er thought about it, the deeper her eyes became. She stared at Bai Han for a long time, as if thinking about something. Suddenly, she agreed:"Well then, since this young master...
