With Xiao Qingqian's ability, he naturally would not let Chu Yin do whatever he wanted!
The dark guard's eyes dimmed. ”Prince Qi's Concubine, rest well!”
Looking at the candle flame swaying unwillingly a few times as the hidden guards left, he said in her heart: Wei Qing, do I hate you or do I pity you?
In the villages at the border of the Southern Kingdom, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly broke the silence of the night.
Some of the villagers with sharp hearing heard the voice, and secretly opened the window a small crack, and when they recognized Xiao Qingqian, they immediately rushed out to welcome him.
”Prince Chu!”
Xiao Qingqian frowned, ”You can still recognize this king?”
The villagers quickly replied, ”At that time, the Southern Kingdom was plagued with a plague. If it were not for Prince Chu and Princess Chu, this commoner would have already died in that plague!”
Xiao Qingqian only nodded slightly.
”Princess Chu had come here before, but she did not stay for long.” The villagers continued.
Xiao Qingqian had been feeling really unsettled these past few days, and was always worried that something would happen to Wei Qing.
”Prince Chu, the sky is cold, why not go in and warm up, and drink some hot water along the way?”
Xiao Qingqian looked at the horses that were also exhausted and followed the villagers into the house.
After slightly warming up, he asked about the matters of the Southern Kingdom. After dawn, he departed for the capital of the Southern Kingdom.
Just as he arrived at the second village, Xiao Qingqian acutely sensed a ghastly cold killing intent.
He exchanged a glance with the hidden guards, and everyone became wary.
Carefully advancing forward, just as they were about to leave the village, several figures descended like ghosts.
Xiao Qingqian pulled on the reins, staring at the leader Qing Mu.
Qing Mu held onto her sharp sword, with a wave, her ice cold sword drew an arc in the air, straight at Xiao Qingqian.
”Long Xiaotian is really interesting.”
On one side, he was using the subGu to control his consciousness, while on the other side, he sent Qing Mu here to ambush and kill.
This person really turned hostile faster than flipping a book.
Qing Mu did not reply, he only gave a meaningful glance to the few people beside him. In a moment, everyone had flown towards Xiao Qingqian and the hidden guards.
In the silent night, only the clashing of the sword blades could be heard, accompanied by the faint sound of sparks.
The Greenwood Tree galloped its stallion and attacked Xiao Qingqian.
Xiao Qingqian nimbly flew backwards, avoiding Qing Mu's sword which was filled with killing intent.
Soon after, the horsewhip in his hand lapped towards Greenwood.
Qing Mu tilted his body, barely dodging the attack, and then thrusted at Xiao Qingqian.
The whip in Xiao Qingqian's hand seemed to have transformed into a nimble hand, it directly wrapped around the sharp sword in Qing Mu's hand and moved behind him forcefully. Qing Mu leaned forward, and took the chance to slap towards Qing Mu's chest.
Greenwood's pupils became cold as he hurriedly let go.
The sword was taken away by Xiao Qingqian and stabbed into the ground.
”Go back and tell Long Xiaotian that this king is not afraid of him!”
The Greenwood Tree killing Xiao Qingqian here today, was not under Long Xiaotian's orders. Since he was unable to kill Xiao Qingqian, he was unreconciled and worried about Long Xiaotian's punishment when he returned.
Seeing that Qing Mu wanted to retreat, the whip in Xiao Qingqian's hand seemed to have been granted life, he forcefully pulled the sword on the ground and threw it towards Qing Mu's back.
With a ”sou” sound, the sword deeply embedded itself into Greenwood's back.
”Puff …”
