Chapter 173 Big Fire
The two gongzis of the Shangguan farown up One had even received the title of young lord, but the two’s situations were totally different When the war between the Kun and Qiu Society was in full swing, the ninth young lord Shangguan Fei had alotten
He had seized the least territory and recruited the fewest sabremen The best aspect about him was that all eleven of his killers were still alive, whereas three killers of his little sister Shangguan Ru’s had died
Thus, all parties agreed to have the negotiation on Shangguan Fei’s territory Shangguan Ru believed in her brother, while Meng Mingshi+ also had a good opinion of the ninth young lord
Each party would send one unarotiation, and the rest of the sabreuan Fei would send three killers to guarantee the safety of the negotiator
Gu Shenwei should have thought of it earlier, but he had focused all of his attention on Ye Silang, only thinking about how to kill the swords the most obvious fact It was not until the reminder of the patrol commandant that he finally understood
To guarantee a perfect assassination, Meng Mingshi+ had not only sent out his uan Fei’s three killers to look on with folded arms
Shangguan Ru believed that the assassination would take place while Gu Shenas travelling to the negotiation because she trusted her brother, not thinking that he would dare to ‘betray’ her
For the first time ever, Gu Shenwei carefully examined the relationshi+p between the twins and found that they see o, after the conclusion of the ‘stealing’ the Black Jade Palame
At that tireat thieves’ had been trapped in a roo, and in order to save Servant Huan and Yu Gongzi, Shangguan Ru had to pretend to put a sabre on her brother’s neck Although she didn’t attack in the end, Shangguan Fei was still thoroughly frightened
Froer followed his little sister and Yu Gongzi Shangguan Ru wasn’t even aware of his new feelings and even felt happy about his disappearance
No one could have iuan Fei’s resent on the side of his sister’s enemy
This was an intricate network and pulling at one thread could unravel the whole situation Gu Shenas just a slued to it, whose position happened to be in the way of several lords
And so his life and death had suddenly beco the whole situation around
No uan faahter, just like how he had used the slaughter ahtened players would not be in danger, as the ones whose lives were being bet were all insignificant minions
Gu Shenwei isolated hiashi+ and Shangguan Yushi+ and their relationshi+ps kept floating around in his mind
Gu Shenwei heard some noises outside so he pushed open the door and walked out He saw Tenth Gongzi standing in thenearby with lanterns People kept running into the yard to report to her
“It has started!” Shangguan Ru said excitedly to Servant Huan with her head held high “Come, watch some fun with me”
The servants with lanterns walked in the front, while Gu Shenalked beside Shangguan Ru with ten footzi purposely didn’t ask for more servants, but unconsciously, people from the castle had come to Northern Jade City one by one She would see theot used to it
The group stopped at a tall pavilion at the border of Northern Jade City The servants were stationed downstairs while Shangguan Ru went upstairs with Servant Huan
Many people had gathered upstairs All the south-facing ere open now, and so that it was too cold and asked the servants downstairs to bring thicker coats and hand warmers
Shangguan Ru’s arrival had caused a sreet her, and the strangers begged others to introduce theuan Fei, who came over and whispered a feords to his sister The two smiled at the same time and they seemed to be no different frozi was also there, but he didn’t go over to greet Tenth Gongzi With a cold face, he pretended to not have noticed her arrival
This place was filled with nobles and scions of the rich while the rest were their close servants who carried lanterns and were intently watching their lords’ every move, ready to be called upon
“There’s a movement, look!” someone called out Everyone crowded to theand looked at Southern Jade City on the other side of the river
On the opposite side of the river was the base camp of the Qiu Society A faint flash of fire could be seen fro streets and
and alleys Suddenly, people started shouting louder and louder, and the noises beca was accompanied by the sounds of weapons collisions, curses, coe screams
The great counterattack of the Kun Society at the last zis
“It sounds intense, but we can’t see anything,” someone complained
“Wait till you see it,” Shangguan Ru replied coldly
The first stage of the battle didn’t look good for the Kun Society The base ca took place on the periphery, indicating that the attack was not as favourable as expected No wonder Tenth Gongzi was unhappy
