Chapter 1241 - Taking Everyone’s Breaths Away (1/2)

Lu Yeming did not appreciate her help at all.

Even so, Jun Xiqing wasn’t bothered at all, her eyes crinkling into a smile. “West Duke, as long as you’re happy.”

When he saw her beautiful smile, Lu Yeming only sneered back at her.

“Hurry up, go inside and search the place, we must find the assassin!” Murong Fu’s voice could be heard.

“Master, what should we do now?” Fan Men asked.

A handsome figure appeared. “Follow me.”

Lu Yeming and Jun Xiqing turned back to look, it was Murong Ling!

Everyone left the Linyuan Stage and entered the forest. “My father will be coming for you in no time, I can only help you this much.”

“Master!”

Fan Men was stunned, seeing Lu Yeming kneeling on one knee, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

“Tsk tsk.” Murong Ling shook his head. “The toxic gas has invaded your bloodstream. West Duke, if you insist on doing something you know you clearly shouldn’t, you have to bear the consequences of your own actions.”

Lu Yeming wiped away the blood around the corners of his lips, his expression dark and thunderous. He lifted his eyes, glancing at Murong Ling.

In an instant, Murong Ling fell silent.

“Hurry up and chase after them, the assassin can’t possibly escape that quickly. Search the forest!” Murong Fu brought with him an army, chasing up to them.

“My father is here,” Murong Ling said.

“Master, I’ll take our men with me and draw Murong Fu away. In the meantime, you can leave together with Third Prince,” Fan Men suggested.

“No way,” Lu Yeming said.

“Master!”

Lu Yeming gave Fan Men a glance. “Do you still treat me as your master?”

Fan Men instantly knelt down before Lu Yeming.

They heard a pleasant voice. “I’ll draw the army away.”

Lu Yeming lifted his head, looking at Jun Xiqing.

As Jun Xiqing walked over, she bent over and her eyes met with his and she smiled. “West Duke, I’ll be in charge of drawing the army away.”

The corners of Lu Yeming’s lips raised, pinning her with a piercing gaze. “You take me as a fool? You’re thinking of escaping.”

“This is a fair deal. I’ll be drawing the army away and if I manage to survive, I’ll escape and never come back,” Jun Xiqing sounded calm as she said.

Lu Yeming glared at her, his eyes turning bloodshot.

Lowering her eyes, Jun Xiqing’s fingers touched the Red Spider Lily in his palm. “Everyone has to make a choice. In one hand is a life mission and responsibility while on the other hand, it’s love. No one has the right to criticize you for whatever decision you make. I’m constantly making choices too. I’m going to save your life so that we can have world peace.”

She leaned forward, kissing his pale lips.

“Oh my god!”

Murong Ling quickly turned around, covering his mouth. Even now he was fed dog food[1] forcibly and so suddenly without any warning!

Fan Men instantly lowered his head, he didn’t dare look.

She kissed him.

Lu Yeming didn’t close his eyes, she could feel her soft lips on his, her tongue was out. So he opened his mouth, letting her tongue in.

With furrowed brows, his breathing turned heavier and kissed her passionately. He used so much force that she started bleeding.

The faint bloody scent filled their breaths. Stretching out his arm, he wanted to hold her hand.

But he hadn’t managed to.

Jun Xiqing pushed him away, getting up and she moved backward. She continued moving backward, shouting loudly as she did, “Hey, General Murong, I’m here!”

Her voice echoed through the forest.

“There! I hear some sounds, hurry!”

The army rushed over in her direction.

Jun Xiqing took one last glance of Lu Yeming and she gave him a smile before whistling.
