C14 (1/2)

It was not that she did not have the ability to protect the family, it was just a banquet that could not be left in the world, who could protect anyone for the rest of their lives! As a marquis of a country, and a rich man, if he himself was not strong enough, once his protective umbrella fell, then any small fry would be able to kill him!

Today, they met the crown prince, who had come to threaten them. It was a perfect opportunity for them. She had to take this opportunity to let him know that only by constantly improving himself could the enemy not take advantage of her!

Although teaching a child to stand on his own feet was not something she should do, as the wife of a Marquis, if her husband was too weak, it would only cause her to lose face. After all, a husband doesn't teach his wife!

This time, Che Lingjun listened to every word Guan Xiaoyu said and was suddenly enlightened!

His strange lack of roots was a secret within the Marquis' Mansion, and Madam Jun had allowed him to learn it ever since she found out that there was something wrong with his bones. It was even less likely for her to force him to learn those profound techniques.

Over time, even Che Lingjun himself had decided that he was a waste. He had given up even the most basic of cultivation techniques. This was the reason why he had such a stupid reputation.

At this moment, he repeated Guan Xiaoyu's words to himself over and over again in his heart, but he still couldn't come up with an answer no matter how much he thought about it.

Seeing him act like this, Guan Xiaoyu suggested, ”Master Hou, master Hou, you're not stupid. Why do you love being so picky?” Protecting oneself wasn't something that could be accomplished by one's own strength. I remember that your medical skills are quite good, but I wonder what your ranking will be if you were to be ranked in the entire Fountain Continent? ”

As soon as he mentioned his expertise, Che Lingjun immediately became full of confidence and said, ”On the continent, if my medical skills were to be ranked second, I'm afraid no one would dare to call me number one!”

Hearing that, Che Lingjun's eyes lit up, and said excitedly: ”What you mean is! You want me to protect myself with poison? ”

”That's right!” The Crown Prince will come looking for us in a short ten days. The best and fastest way to retreat is to use poison! ” Guan Xiao Yu frowned, deep in thought, ”However, using poison is only a temporary measure. Once the crown prince is done, you have to start from the very beginning, and you have to lay a good foundation!” When the time comes, I will ask Master Purified Disc to help you have a good look. Other than practicing the techniques here, is there any other possibilities!? ”

However, Che Lingjun was not confident, and even gave up, ”I know to build a good foundation, but my foundation is not good! Other people would be able to cultivate this technique after a few months of practice. Even if I study it for a decade or eight years, I still might not be able to learn it! Jiu'er, can you not leave me? As long as you are by my side, I am not afraid of any enemies! ”

Guan Xiaoyu humphed and sincerely broke his wishful thinking, ”Che Lingjun, the key issue is not whether or not I will stay by your side, but your ability to stand on your own two sides! Don't forget, you're the Steadfast Marquis! ”If even you are not willing to lay a solid foundation for this family business, then the only thing I can give you is — If your foundation is not strong, then the earth will shake and the mountains will shake!”

Guan Xiaoyu's words made Che Lingjun ashamed. However, he felt that he was not up to the task. He could play some tricks, but when it came time to get serious, he couldn't even compare to a finger of that person!

Guan Xiaoyu knew that she couldn't rush things, so she didn't say anything further. The best way to get him to deal with the poison was to apply it onto his body. The moment someone touched the corner of his shirt, the poison would come out.

After Guan Xiaoyu's several attempts at helping out, Che Lingjun knew very well of her abilities. Without a second thought, he immediately went to refine his unique poison.

Five days later, Che Lingjun was finally done refining the poison, and he tested them one by one to show Guan Xiaoyu. Guan Xiaoyu was finally relieved. If the crown prince, that mad man with high eyes, wanted her to compromise, then he would have to see if his men could even take half a step into the Marquis Mansion!

Guan Xiao Yu was brimming with confidence, but she did not know that the crown prince, Yi Qian, had long snuck into the Residence of Marquis Zhenyuan.

The person Yi Qian had called was precisely the Young Master Wu Hen whom he had mentioned to Sky Shrouding. Wu Hen was called Wu Hen by his full name. He was the No. 1 Assassin on the continent!

According to Jianghu news, this Young Master Wu Hen was extremely mysterious. When he came into contact with people, he dressed up as a scholar, allowing his swordsmanship to flow smoothly. It was rumored that there had once been an expert who had been so infatuated with his beautiful posture of dancing that he had forgotten to resist. In just a moment, his throat had been slashed open! Some people even said that he knew evil arts. Before killing someone, he would use the evil arts to control the mind of the person who was killed and make the person give up on resisting and be slaughtered by him.

The rumours in the martial arts world about this Young Master Wu Hen were too complicated. In the end, it was impossible to verify which rumor was true and which rumor was false.

He had snuck into the Marquis' Mansion the day after Yi Qian came back from Zhen Yuan Marquis' Mansion, and according to Yi Qian's instructions, he had found a person called Qi Jiabao.

Wei Jiabao was the steward of the Marquis' Mansion. When Wu Hen found him, he just casually threatened him and allowed him to do as he pleased.

Wu Hen felt that this mission was extremely retarded! The other party actually wanted him to observe the movements of a youth wearing a fox mask inside the Marquis' Mansion. If the masked youth was still unwilling to leave the Mansion even ten days from now, then he would kill the Marquis in the middle of it.

To be honest, Wu Hen had never taken on such a ridiculous mission before!

What a joke, his first assassin wasn't for nothing. His reward of two hours was already as high as a thousand gold! ”Who would pay such a high price to do such a tactless tracking mission? It would be a waste of money!

However, he would not go against the money once he got Wu Hen. Since he was willing to be a big shot, he was willing to work while at the same time finding some fun.

Thus, with Qi Jiabao turning a blind eye to him, Traceless Aftermath was successfully assigned to the outer court of Guan Xiaoyu's residence as an attendant.

The Traceless Servant was guarding the outer court all day and had very few chances of entering the inner court. However, he wasn't annoyed. With his abilities, he wouldn't be able to keep an eye on anyone!
