Chapter 823: He's Here

“It’s all of you, not including me.”

Nan Jiaojiao emphasized, “Once Tuantuan is in a safe place, I’m leaving.”

Yeh Hannian just smiled without saying anything.

She was already on the pirate ship, so it was out of her hands.

Li Jian was close on their heels, and Yeh Hannian’s men were caught wave after wave, until he had only a few left beside him at the end.

Only a few hundred meters left to the desert, and there was no one left by his side.

Yeh Hannian turned back once and could already see the figure of Li Jian, cursing under his breath, “Why is he so relentless!”

Nan Jiaojiao glanced at him, thinking that if he hadn’t caused so much trouble, people wouldn’t hold a grudge so persistently.

Until they reached a dead end with no retreat.

Yeh Hannian leaned back, scanned the people gradually enclosing them, then looked at the approaching Li Jian.

He handed Tuantuan to Nan Jiaojiao and whispered, “Later, I’ll figure a way to hold Li Jian off.

The others aren’t your match.

I’ll create an opening for you, take Tuantuan and leave, wait for me back in Mingzhou.”

Nan Jiaojiao’s eyelid twitched, “Don’t make it sound like a will.”

“Isn’t it a will?

It’s just a pity for you, if I die, you’ll be a widow.”

To be able to smile at this moment, his mindset was really good.

If they weren’t so outnumbered, Nan Jiaojiao might have given him two whacks.

“Be careful, I won’t save you.”

Yeh Hannian raised an eyebrow, “Don’t need to save me, just protect my daughter.”

With those words, he swiftly darted out, breaking through the encirclement, heading straight for Li Jian.

Unfortunately, he was intercepted.

It was Li Jian who had all his men withdraw; he came personally.

There were only three people left, with one of them being a woman and the other a child.

Li Jian’s men breathed a sigh of relief, thinking they had it in the bag this time, but upon engaging, they were shocked by the pair’s fighting strength.

Nan Jiaojiao, with a child in her arms, was somewhat hindered, but since the troublesome ones were drawn away by Yeh Hannian, she found an opportunity to escape.

Suddenly, a flying dagger pierced her shoulder.

Blood was drawn on the spot.

Her hand dropped slightly, almost losing grip, but in that instant of distraction, she switched Tuantuan to her right arm and held a whip in her left.

Tuantuan clung to her shoulder, glanced at the wound on her left arm, and cried out with concern, “Mommy, can you put me down?

You’re bleeding a lot, will you die?”

Nan Jiaojiao gently patted her, “I won’t die, hang tight and don’t move.”

She lashed out with the whip, repelling three people.

Just in time to create an opening, and before the others could fill the gap, Nan Jiaojiao dashed through it.

Suddenly, she heard a male voice, “Third Master, the southwest direction’s trap…”

Though not far, the male voice on the phone was clear and distinct to Nan Jiaojiao.

“Activate.”

Bo Yanching?

He’s here?

He’s the real master of this safe zone?!

Nan Jiaojiao gritted her teeth and suddenly turned back, whipping towards Yeh Hannian.

He noticed in advance and instead of pulling against her, moved in the direction Nan Jiaojiao tugged, leaving Li Jian’s encirclement.

“Foolish girl, what did you come back for.”

“Stop fighting, let’s go!”

Yeh Hannian was bleeding, the wetness clinging to his body, mixed with sweat.

He wrapped the whip a few loops, handed it back to her, and mimicked a shape with his fingers before blowing a whistle with his mouth.

Soon, a group of people appeared out of nowhere.

Even Li Jian hadn’t anticipated that there’d be hidden men.

Nan Jiaojiao was also stunned for a second, having just fought like that, those lying in ambush were just watching with open eyes?

“Yeh Hannian.”

Yeh Hannian: “Don’t scold yet, hear my explanation.”
