Chapter 353: I Won't Leave You.

Zhao Lin heard this, and hurriedly tried to get up to apologize, but Zhao Xiyan hurriedly told him not to move.

So he remained seated but still managed to make a gesture of lifting his hand in salute.

"My lord is insightful. They are from Nanyue. If I am not mistaken, they should be the Emperor's Longting Guards."

At the mention of "Longting Guards," Zhao Chong and the others tensed up.

Qi Yue, seeing this, couldn't help but ask, "Are the Longting Guards of Nanyue very formidable?"

Zhao Chong and the others glanced at Zhao Xiyan before they began to explain.

"My lord may not know this, but the Longting Guards are a rank higher than the Emperor's personal guards. Usually working in pairs, these people possess extraordinary skills, and ordinary people are no match for them. If Zhao Lin hadn't been the one we encountered but rather me and Zhao Tai, I'm afraid we wouldn't have made it back."

"That formidable?" Qi Yue was surprised. "You mean, you couldn't defeat them either?"
