His Rui

Chapter 521 Fight Between Gu Li And Li Rui

No one had expected Li Rui to have a dagger in her hands let alone attack Gu Li so suddenly who was about to fly in the sky to follow An Ju who had flown away with Xi Ling.

Gu Li's eyes widened and because of shock, it took him a few moments to react to the attack. However, those few moments were enough for the dagger in Li Rui's hands to make a deep cut on Gu Li's arm.

With wide eyes full of shock and rage, Gu Li looked at his arm.

How long exactly it has been since he had been injured by someone else like this. The shadow guards in the Youxio organization were so capable that they rarely get hurt when they completed their missions.

So not only Gu Li but the other three including the leader were also shocked as they looked at Gu Li's arm. The black sleeve of his black upper cloth was soaking with blood so easily and hurriedly.

When Gu Li raised his head, his eyes were so cold and indifferent that Li Hua who was scared for her mistress couldn't help but shiver on seeing them.

There was a psychotic smile on his lips as he looked at Li Rui's small frame from up to down and said

"You are just a woman with such a beautiful and innocent face that no one would be able to believe that you can even know how to use this small dagger."

He smiled coldly as he looked at the dagger in Li Rui's hands that had his blood.

"But in the end, those rumors are true."

Behind this beautiful and innocent face, the woman had a very vicious heart.

Gu Li concluded inside his mind silently.

His companion shadow guards were also looking at Li Rui with cold and indifferent eyes, However, Li Rui didn't seem to be fazed by this coldness in their eyes at all. She stood there with calm and indifferent eyes with the dagger ready in her hands that was ready to take anyone's life who tried to step closer to her or her people.

Her fear had flown away with her son. After she knew that her son was safe and well protected by An Ju, she could fight with anyone freely.

It was not that Li Rui cared for Li Hua or the old physician who had come to Xi Manor just a few days ago meant any less to Li Rui. She just didn't wish for Xi Ling to witness a fight at such a young age.

Her son had already suffered enough in Xi Manor at such a young age, she didn't wish him to have any other memory from his childhood that could make him have a shadow inside his heart.

She wished that he would just have happy memories of his childhood unlike her.

"Master, you are not telling me that we are going to keep this woman alive after whatever she has done?"

Gu Li asked his master coldly.

It could be seen that Gu Li was very angered by the fact that Li Rui could harm him. He was just waiting for his master's order to attack Li Rui.

The leader looked at Li Rui with cold and indifferent eyes. As his eyes fell on her slightly protruding stomach, he looked a little conflicted but then that hesitation was there only for a moment …until he remembered how she had attacked Gu Li just a moment ago.

None of them noticed that Li Rui's trick seemed to work very nicely.

The four of them were here inside the garden all the time after An Ju flew away with Xi Ling. This much time was enough for An Ju to find some safe place for Xi Ling where the invaders won't be able to find him.

And that was what Li Rui wanted.

Without any fear in her eyes, she took a step back taking a defensive stance as Gu Li stepped forward with his sword in his hand to fight with her.

He had a sword and she had a dagger ...this kind of fight looked ridiculous in the first place. Anyone with eyes would say that Li Rui will definitely lose her life in this battle.

Even Li Hua, who had seen her mistress's good skills in swordsmanship and fighting with a dagger, was worried.

"My Lady…"

She whispered and Li Rui looked towards her just for a moment and blinked her eyes in assurance.

The old physician also looked worried.

He, of course, had sensed that one in four of them was their leader. So he stepped forward and pointed his fat finger in front of the leader's face and said

"Shameless man, how can you be so cruel enough to attack a pregnant lady?"

His eyes were filled with anger as he looked at the leader.

However, the leader just gave him one of those cold and indifferent glances and then moved his eyes to look at Li Rui and Gu Li's fight.

They just killed the people they were assigned to kill. They were too lazy to kill the rest and unfortunately, the old man was just included in the list of these rest of the people at this moment.

The old physician was left furious as well as helpless as he understood that this won't work.

When he looked back at Li Rui, his eyes flashed with surprise.

Li Rui was fighting so well.

She would defend herself from Gu Li's sword and then look for some chance to attack Gu Li with her dagger. At this moment, the fact that she had a dagger even though it was small, seemed to be in her favor.

However, the old physician was still very worried.

Li Rui was in her third month. She should not be doing this kind of thing when she is in the most sensitive period of her pregnancy.

It could harm her child.

When the old physician was just thinking this, his eyes brightened suddenly and he looked toward Li Hua suddenly whose eyes were filled with fresh tears as she looked at her mistress.

He ran towards Li Hua and then whispered something in her ear.

Li Hua's eyes also flashed with some hope and she suddenly looked toward the table placed inside the garden.

Both of them then looked at the rest of the shadow guards. When they saw that none of them was looking at them, they were relieved and they silently moved towards the table.

Gu Li's forehead was knitted in a frown as he attacked Li Rui without any pause. However, regardless of which kind of trick he tried to use on her, she would always come out safe.

Frustrated, he tried to use the last trick and suddenly lowered his sword.

His sword went from right to left as if to cut Li Rui's legs. However, who had expected that the woman who was pregnant would make a jump and save herself again.

This time, however, Li Rui's eyebrows knitted together to form a frown.

She could feel pain…sharp pain. Swallowing the tears that we forcing to cloud her eyes, she put her hand on her belly and readied her dagger again.

This time, her eyes were filled with deathly coldness.

Her child was her bottom line.

They didn't know this. She would destroy this whole world and then herself if something happened to her children.

That was the power a mother holds.

With her dagger ready to attack Gu Li, Li Rui had just stretched out her arm when she felt an arm hugging her waist.

Li Rui's flickered as she was ready to make a cut on the arm around her waist when she noticed that all the four shadow guards were in front of her only

"My Lady."

She frowned in confusion when she heard Li Hua's voice.

"Li Hua."

She had just said this when she noticed the old physician standing in front of Gu Li and throwing some powder in his direction.

Li Rui's eyes flashed when she looked at the packet in the old physician's hands carefully.

Li Hua also moved her arms away as she stepped forward and ran to the other three shadow guards who looked confused.

Her hand had the same kind of packet.

With a cold smile on her lips that Li Rui had never seen on her maidservant's face, she saw her saying

"You wanted to kill My Young Miss, right?"

With these words, Li Hua started to throw the powder toward the remaining three shadow guards one by one.

Gu Li, who didn't feel anything, still looked confused as he looked at the old physician and the maidservant.

Was it some kind of poison?

But he couldn't feel anything.

It was only the leader, Xu Li, who was carefully looking at the packet in Li Hua's hands.

His eyes flickered when he read the few words on the packet and he immediately stepped forward and threw away the packet in Li Hua's words before she could throw it at him.

After that, he took out his sword in one swift motion and pointed it toward the old physician's neck.

"Throw it away."

The old physician was shivering to see the sword but didn't want to throw away the packet in his hands. At this moment, it seemed to be the only thing that could save him.

He wanted to throw it at Xu Li, however, as if Xu Li could see his thoughts he said coldly

"Don't even think about it. I will be faster than you…just that I will cut your arm that is holding the packet."

The old physician's eyes flashed with fear hearing this and he swallowed audibly.

"Throw it away."

He heard Li Rui's calm voice from behind and didn't hesitate for a moment to throw it away.

"Master…what is it? Does M…"

Gu Li stepped forward as he seemed to sense that his master knew something. However, before he could finish his words, he felt as if ants were crawling on his whole body and soon he was lying down on the floor as well as his companion shadow guards except Xu Li.
