Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 101 Part 4: Bloom

His hand supported Jiang Li on her back. Jiang Li was not as tall as him, thus, seen from afar, it seemed as if he had taken her into his arms. As long as he lowered his head, his chin would touch the top of Jiang Lis head. However, he didnt look at Jiang Li at all, his pair of long and narrow almond-shaped eyes smiling lightly, containing endless colors while looking at Little Peach.

Jiang Li leaned to the side to look at Little Peach.

Naturally, the expression of the woman whose face had been painted fully could not be made out. Only the coldness and stiffness of her eyes were like iron, the mellow and moving look she showed while she was performing could not be seen at all.

Who sent you? Ji Heng asked softly.

His voice was also very gentle, as if the person facing him was a friend, or a delicate and charming beautiful woman he didnt wish to startle, containing infinite tenderness.

Little Peach did not say a word.

I know even if you refuse to say. The corner of his mouth had a light smile, carrying a kind of exotic enticement. He said: If you say it out, Ill let your end be a bit quicker.

Jiang Li trembled inside, using this type of intimate tone to say such dreadful words, this person was truly too terrible.

Right at this time, looking at the approaching actors in the surrounding, Jiang Li abruptly realized something. Such a huge mansion, yet not a single bodyguard can be seen. She absolutely doesnt believe that Ji Heng has no bodyguards.

In the middle of her thought, Little Peach snorted coldly. Then together with the others actors, they pounced at him simultaneously.

All around, each of them was a powerful enemy. Couldnt escape and couldnt stay. Jiang Lis mind was in a jumble, she might as well throw herself beside Ji Heng. She believed Ji Heng, this cunning person, absolutely would not wait for death on the spot. Theres always a way, but she could not hold Ji Heng, leaving her back open to Little Peach. If she was treated as a human shield by Ji Heng and was pushed out, that would be the greatest injustice.

During her distraction, she heard something resembling a laugh from Ji Heng. Soon Jiang Li felt her body move, following Ji Hengs sudden move. Then she saw an actor with white painted face pointing a sword from behind Ji Heng.

Careful! Jiang Li exclaimed.

This was completely not because she had kind intentions and couldnt see blood, rather, it was for her own consideration. If Ji Heng were to die here, she would also have no way to live. Just as he was about to stretch his hand into his sleeve, the white faced actor holding the sword suddenly paused as if his acupuncture point was hit. Blood flew out from the corner of his mouth and his body fell down slowly.

In his chest, a silver arrow passed through.

Rustle rustle, following the sound, Jiang Li looked up and saw black dressed bodyguards had unknowingly appeared on the four corners of the eaves. They were holding bows and arrows, with expressionless faces, their hands continuously released arrows.

Screams immediately rang out in the courtyard.

These screams, compared to ordinary people, were much softer, thus it went unnoticed by the surrounding neighbors. Jiang Li guessed all the people of Jin Man Tang were people who passed special training and were ready to sacrifice their lives. Their movements at deaths door were much smaller.

Little Peach wanted to assassinate Ji Heng, but she absolutely did not anticipate Ji Hengs arrangements in advance. She was disturbed upon seeing with her own eyes how each and every one of her companions collapsed, but with red eyes, she disregarded everything and rushed towards Ji Heng.

Jiang Li sighed in her heart.

She wasnt able to clearly see Little Peachs expression, but based on her action, Little Peach was confused. However, this was indeed beyond anyones imagination, how the people from Jin Man Tang were dead soldiers who came to assassinate Ji Heng. This was enough to make people surprised. It was even more amazing that Ji Heng had since earlier arranged people to lie in wait. Little Peachs drama was done exquisitely and incomparably, yet no one expect that Ji Heng had seen a lot of plays, and he could distinctly see that the truth was still fake.

The people in Jin Man Tang thought they were acting in a play for Ji Heng to see, but Ji Heng truly treated Jin Man Tang as the play.

The beautiful, mischievous and flirtatious young mans motions were especially graceful. His figure was not as quick and violent as Little Peach, but was more like a poisonous animal hunting, unhurriedly closing in to his prey. So much so that Jiang Li could not even make out their fighting at close range. She only felt that Ji Heng had effortlessly used that gold threaded fan to strike Little Peachs dagger.

Without any hesitation, he broke the four limbs in Little Peachs body and removed her chin.

Jiang Lis whole body felt a chill when she saw.

Even though she had died once, even though she was tormented by Princess Yongning and Shen Yu Rong, seeing Ji Hengs unfeeling and even appearing to enjoy the bloody circumstances at the moment, Jiang Li could not be glad. She only wanted to leave.

Little Peach was restrained, and the jade-like beauty completely lacked image as she was paralyzed on the ground, just like a dog that can be trampled on. With the situation before her, she could not even commit suicide.

Ji Heng took two steps forwards, walking in front of Little Peach. Little Peachs body was filled with mud and blood, yet Ji Hengs gorgeous gown did not have the slightest trace of dust.

Just like before, he was still aloof and remote, a person watching the play who did not eat the human worlds fireworks.

I gave you a chance. Ji Heng leaned over slightly, as if taking pity. He spoke quietly: Unfortunately, you refused.

A trace of fear flashed through Little Peachs eyes. Jiang Li could see it clearly.

Even if a person was ready to sacrifice his life, in the end, it depended on not being the least bit afraid in the face of death. But having no fear of death did not mean that there were no other things beside death. The trump card that they lose in the end, after their voluntary termination of life, what they had to face was even more frightening than death.

This has been the principle since ancient times.

Jiang Li recognized the bodyguard called Wen Ji who came over. He said to Ji Heng: Master, ten living people are left alive.

The fear in Little Peachs eyes grew even deeper. In these circumstances, Ji Heng was actually able to leave ten people alive. This was too formidable. The most important thing was the meaning behind the ten living people. It meant that there were more opportunities available. Human nature was that they could not stand being put to the test. The same as ten dead soldiers entering a private prison, compared to one dead soldier entering a private prison, the truth could be pried much more.

Ji Heng would not let the opportunity slip by.

You guys sang pretty well. Ji Heng laughed, what a pity.
