The footsteps stopped before the door to the sleeping quarters After arequests aQue dropping a dagger into his right hand, I sighed If Xiaoshunzi were present, Xiahou Yuanfeng would naturally be captured easily But with only Dong Que was present, it was unlikely to happen, nigh i Que’s reatly i I only had him stay behind, not only because no one else was suitable, but was also because he had a bag full of useful tricks This hat I was going to rely heavily upon In any case, if a fight were to genuinely break out, Xiaoshunzi would likely be useless as well As such, I figured that it was best to let Dong Que stay behind However, the present situation was quite difficult
I gave Dong Que a lance and replied, “Xiahou daren, please co, in the yellow unifor, he saluted and stated, “Last tirace of pardoning my life previously”
I so too courteous Last time, daren reported the true culprit that attempted to assassinate me This was daren</eratitude? At present, daren</e matters of the past?”
A s hih Wei Ying and co If I were to conduct the search, I would definitely dispatch several individuals toin secret At the very least, I would send so Que frowned He understood this reasoning However, ti Zhe would be har
Seeing this, Xiahou Yuanfeng’s expression becaaze fell upon the white damask silk handkerchief and jade pendant on the desk He innocently inquired, “May I ask Jiang daren what you discussed with the Princess? In reality, at present, although the Prince of Yong has teer, Wen Ziyan is currently in pursuit Without reinforce will inevitably be trapped sooner rather than later This lowly official truly wishes to understand how Jiang daren would reverse this desperate crisis so as to live up to your status as the Prince of Yong’s chief adviser”
The expression on radually becaent, the cal, I replied, “Xiahou daren is the Crown Prince’s trusted subordinate Why haven’t you brought the iuardsreatupon the Fengyi Sect,” explained Xiahou Yuanfeng with a syi Sect placed Junior Mentor Lu under house arrest, the Crown Prince did not even dare to question that act It would be useless even if I were to perforreat meritorious service Further, the Demonic Shadow is still alive If I were to present you to the Crown Prince, it is likely that it wouldn’t be long before h alert This wasn’t a good enough reason for him to letentangled by hih Xiaoshunzi’s martial arts are excellent, he is only one person In the future, Xiahou daren’s position and rank will be lofty and prominent What do you have to be afraid of? So what does Xiahou daren desire I do for you?”
A look of joy flashed across Xiahou Yuanfeng’s face He answered, “My request is very siift the Demonic Shadow as my slave, then today, I will definitely risk my life to preserve all reason Fortunately, Dong Que nudged h Xiaoshunzi and I are nominally master and servant, we are as close as blood brothers Xiahou daren</e s daren as his father and older brother, devoted and loyal Xiahou is extre daren were my subordinate, the Demonic Shadoould obey my commands”
“Xiahou daren, you’re too pleased with yourself,” I sternly declared “You should not have co Que Shaking his head, he knew “He is not uarded the Prince of Yong and escaped, I would not have co daren, do not worry I will definitely not deliver you to the Fengyi Sect or the Crown Prince Jiang Xiahou only desires to respectfully listen to your advice”
At this lint of steel flashed, piercing towards Xiahou Yuanfeng Cal unsheathed his sword toquarters, crisscrossing the roo However, neither individual wanted to disturb anyone else As a result, they constrained theradually pushed onto the back foot His specialties weren’t inQue didn’t have a single chance for victory
After several exchanges, Xiahou Yuanfeng had pierced Dong Que’s thigh Thesuddenly saw froer in his hands, stabbing it towards his own chest Anxious, Xiahou Yuanfeng i Zhe To hi Zhe could not die At this li Zhe’s waist Xiahou Yuanfeng was greatly startled When he went to evade, he realized that he was in e Moreover, that glint was not only as fast as lightning, the angle that it shot out fro made every effort to evade it, he was still hit Xiahou Yuanfeng subconsciously sla Zhe fell over backwards Xiahou Yuanfeng suddenly felt his entire body grow limp, painful, and powerless, and collapsed to the floor At thisover to check on Jiang Zhe
It was so Que’s panicked expression, I whispered, “I’ Que s master’s concealed weapons are truly ferocious and difficult to deal with Xiahou Yuanfeng could no longerhit”
Only then did I relax Just now, I had racked ure out a way to escape the present predica Que was not Xiahou Yuanfeng’s e that we could exploit was that Xiahou Yuanfeng was alone I wasn’t a fool Xiaoshunzi’s ence were both rarely seen in the present age This kind of talent asted as my subordinate There were undoubtedly countless individuals who found this unfair for Xiaoshunzi and wanted to recruit him The only reasonXiahou Yuanfeng ildly ambitious and unexpectedly wished to try to scheme to acquire Xiaoshunzi’s services However, it was because of this reason that he could not hand yi Sect Since he had co that I could do was capture him Only then would I be safe At the same, however, this was also the most difficult to accomplish How could I, a weak and feeble scholar without the strength to even truss a chicken, capture an expert?
Fortunately, I had finally co he wanted from me, then he couldn’t allowQue was defeated, I raised the dagger to kill myself To him, my actions were in accordance with ist—rather die than be humiliated As a result, he had come quickly to stop ger from my hands, he would still rush over to ensure that I didn’t continue to commit suicide I had seized the opportunity to fire a poisoned needle froinally, the poison on the needle was highly toxic However, a few days ago, I switched to a newly concocted nu a person to collapse weakly to the floor in one breath The only issue was that its effectiveness was rather brief Of course, I also needed to run into suitable danger before I could use it Even though Xiahou Yuanfeng was able to hit me with his strike, fortunately, he had already lost all of his strength, allowing lanced at Xiahou Yuanfeng’s sinister looking face I was still a bit worried I had given my beloved hairpin made of metal from a meteorite to Xiaoshunzi Normally, he did not use weapons, but for his safety, when he broke out of the encircleiven him my hairpin To him, that hairpin was far more formidable than any other weapon in the world As a result, I plucked a hairpin that was thirty percent gold and seventy percent steel I pricked several of Xiahou Yuanfeng’s hidden acupoints With this, I could guarantee that Xiahou Yuanfeng would not be able to strike back Right noas the one in control of the situation
After a while, Xiahou Yuanfeng was able to ain However, he could feel that his entire body did not have an ounce of strength S daren would have such methods”
I modestly replied, “I was only successful because I was able to catch you off guard using a vile character’s tricks”
Xiahou Yuanfeng had a calm expression on his face, almost as if I was his prisoner rather than the other way around He s daren wishes to handle me? If this lowly official were to suddenly disappear, it is likely that people will not let lanced at him serenely “There is no need for you to worry After I kill you, I can hide you in the secret compartment here In this way, there is no need for you to worry that your corpse will be discovered Maybe they will even believe that you secretly ran away With the Prince of Yong’s escape, there are those who are truly afraid”
HearingQue immediately opened the secret co blood to prevent the suspicion of others being aroused by the stench of blood”
Sed, “This subordinate obeys” Finished speaking, he extended a finger and unhurriedly ’s death acupoint
Xiahou Yuanfeng clearly understood that these tere only trying to frighten hi Zhe to place restrictions upon his martial arts However, fear still rose fro Que had a cold-hearted expression With one look, Xiahou Yuanfeng could tell that he was a ruthless character
