After Mistakenly Binding The Matchmaker System

Tyrant's Beloved (14)

If someone hadn't suddenly released an arrow, Li Shu wouldn't have noticed the presence of hidden individuals around. 1314 was reflecting on itself— it failed to give the host a timely warning.

Due to the limitations of the small world, most of Li Shu's powers were restricted. But even if he could only use a small portion of his strength, he shouldn't have missed the presence of people around him.

How did these people manage to almost completely blend into the environment?

Of course, now wasn't the time to ponder that question. Li Shu leaped up, evading the arrows that kept coming. Seizing the opportunity, he glanced in the direction of the small dilapidated temple. What were the identities of the two children, and why did they attract a group of well-trained assassins? Or perhaps, were there others in the temple?

[1314, check the situation inside the temple.]

While giving instructions to the system, Li Shu swiftly deflected the continuous rain of arrows. Finding an opening, he rushed towards the temple.

[The situation doesn't look good,] 1314 spoke faster. [Both children are injured, and the male protagonist is here too. He has several wounds, and there is a poisoned arrow in his shoulder. The male protagonist is enduring it without passing out.]

Li Shu's steps slightly paused, then he accelerated. [You said Qi Mingxuan is here? Why is he here? There doesn't seem to be such a scene in the plot.]

[It indeed isn't there. The plot line got messed up since the male protagonist left Xian Guo Temple unscathed. Host, don't worry; as long as there's no warning from above, everything should be fine.]

Squeezing through the unclosable door crack, the moment Li Shu entered, he smelled a strong scent of blood. The temple was small, and even without the system's guidance, he quickly spotted the three people who were not in the best condition.

The boy he met earlier stood protectively in front of Qi Mingxuan and another girl, watching the approaching figure warily.

"Don't come any closer!" The boy warned sternly.

Seeing this scene, Li Shu felt somewhat helpless. Why did he always encounter the injured male protagonist?

"Who are you?" Qi Mingxuan frowned, trying not to show weakness. The people outside were wary of him, so they didn't dare to come in. This newcomer, he didn't know if he was a friend or foe, so he had to be cautious.

"Someone entrusted me to come and rescue you." Li Shu deliberately lowered his voice, he had no intention of revealing his true identity.

Upon hearing this, Qi Mingxuan looked at the masked man in front of him with suspicion.

He was cloaked in a blue robe, wearing a silver mask with intricate patterns covering half his face, only revealing his lips, chin, and a pair of cold eyes.

Those eyes...

Qi Mingxuan calmed down and patted the boy in front of him. "It's okay, he's not a bad person."

Upon hearing this, the boy moved aside a bit, but his gaze remained fixed on Li Shu, fearing that he would do something inappropriate.

Li Shu quickly reached Qi Mingxuan, crouched down and asked, "How are you feeling?"

He was clearly not well, his face was pale, and his lips were tainted purple due to poison from the arrow lodged in his left shoulder. A pair of eyes as sharp as an eagle's showed no signs of weakness. It was no wonder those people outside didn't dare to attack recklessly.
