Seeing that they all turned their gaze away from her, Su Yan paused for a moment, then sprinted towards the nearest horse at full speed.
She drew the long knife from the horse's back, cut the rope, and mounted, charging out recklessly.
However, the reaction of the dozen guards was swift. As soon as Su Yan mounted the horse, they rushed over with weapons in hand.
Su Yan swung her knife to fend them off, then urged her horse into a wild gallop.
"Stop!"
"Don't run!"
"Quickly, chase her, don't let her get away!"
...
Behind her came their frantic shouts, a few guards forgetting their horses, chased her on foot.
Some reacted quickly, immediately mounting horses to pursue her.
Su Yan stole a glance back at them, seeing that they were haphazardly catching up, she panicked and sped up even more.
If she fell into their hands, both she and her child would be doomed...
