Flashes of swords reaction was within Leng yuqius expectations. However, his strength Was far beyond her expectations.
Leng yuqiu did not intend to draw her sword at the two people in front of her. She did not think it was necessary.
However, the moment young master Jians hand touched the hilt of his sword, the moment his battle intent and sword intent burst out from his eyes, Leng yuqius expression Changed.
Instinctively, Leng yuqiu took a step back. By the time he realized it, his hand had already grabbed his sword.
How is that possible? At that moment, Leng yuqius mind was filled with confusion and shock.
But before he could think about it, flashes of sword had already attacked.
Wuwuwuwu
The blades of the swords collided in the air.
Anyone who could see this confrontation would certainly be amazed by the strength and speed of both sides.
However, the sound produced by this blow Was neither loud nor heavy.
The sound was like two gla.s.ses gently touching each other, light and gentle.
After this attack, young master Jian and Leng yuqius expressions changed and they both took a few steps back.
I see Leng yuqiu thought to herself,its not because his internal strength is weak that I cant detect his internal force. Its because his cultivation technique is unique and I cant detect it.
Are you kidding me This guy is actually this strong? Or is this the average level of the NPCs in this scenario? Young master Jian was also bewildered.
I havent asked for your name Leng yuqiu rarely asked for someones name, but this time was an exception.
Huangfu mingkang, Young master Jian reported his real name without missing a word. His real name did not sound out of place in this Wuxia World.
Alright, he said. Leng yuqiu did not mention her name, nor did she ask if the other party knew her. She only said,okay. Then, she sheathed her sword and took out a Silver Note from her pocket.Ill pay for it.
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and handed over the silver notes.
However, young master Jian didnt take it.
No need. Flashes of sword coldly replied,we have the money.
What he meant was that regarding Wanwans matter, they were being reasonable. As long as you were willing to compensate, it was fine. As for the money It didnt matter if you gave it or not.
But I still think its better to compensate you. Leng yuqiu did not retract her hand.Just do me a favor.
What he meant was that Yingluo, to him, this matter would only be considered over after he paid the money. Otherwise, he would feel that he owed someone something.
Alright, then. Young master Sword quickly understood what the other party meant. At the same time, he also realized belatedly that When he decided to pull out his sword, he had already lost the opportunity to cooperate with this NPC. Now, he could only accept the money, end this incident, and accept that the other party would continue to maintain a neutral relations.h.i.+p with him.
Hence, the two players from world of martial arts accepted the money and left the second floor. They immediately went to the shopkeeper to change rooms.
They had only found out who Leng yuqiu was and what role he had played in this incident after they had talked to the innkeeper.
However, it was too late for them to lament about their poor ability to deal with NPCs.
Meanwhile, in w.a.n.g Qiongs mansion.
The smell of grains, cotton, straw, and firewood, as well as a hint of burning, mixed together and drifted into the house.
w.a.n.g Qiong was sitting on the brick bed, eating pastries and drinking hot tea.
Most people who saw him for the first time would think that he was an ordinary farmer. They would never think that he was a living G.o.d of Wealth with wealth comparable to a country.
Villa Lord. Cheng Weis voice came from outside the door.
He stood at the door with his back straight. Even though no one was looking around, when he said the word villa Lord, he maintained a serious and respectful expression.
Come in, w.a.n.g Qiong casually replied. As he spoke, he didnt even finish the food in his mouth.
Yes. Okay, Cheng Wei replied and then lifted the curtain to enter the house.
What did the midwife say? w.a.n.g Qiong knew what the other party had come to report, so he asked directly.
Heightslord, shes a Virgin without a doubt. Cheng Wei also gave a direct answer.
Mm w.a.n.g Qiong nodded. After a few seconds of silence, he asked,Cheng Wei, what do you think?
Cheng Wei was stunned for a moment.You mean He really didnt know what this question was asking about.
For this woman, I spent a lot of money, time, and connections You know it all. w.a.n.g Qiong continued,arent you the least bit curious about what Im doing this for?
Villa Lord, as servants, we shouldnt ask about things we shouldnt Cheng Wei lowered his head and replied.
Hey! w.a.n.g Qiong interrupted him with a wave of his hand.Youre not the one asking me questions. Im the one asking you. He paused for half a second.What do you think Just tell me.
This question was not easy to answer.
Although Cheng Wei had always been at w.a.n.g Qiongs side, he knew very little about this woman.
In this subordinates opinion After a moment of consideration, Cheng Wei replied,does the villa Lord intend to marry this girl?
Although this speculation sounded shallow, it was actually very reliable.
Indeed, w.a.n.g Qiong did not lack women, but lover and wife were two different things.
w.a.n.g Qiong was over forty years old and had never officially married. He had never spent so much effort on a woman before. In addition, he had specially arranged for a midwife to verify her ident.i.ty
Based on all these signs, Cheng Wei came to this conclusion.
Hehe w.a.n.g Qiong laughed.Its reasonable He paused,but its not right.
Then Cheng Wei raised another hypothesis,is it to give it to others?
Youre half right. w.a.n.g Qiong shook his head with a smile.Youre half right.
Im slow-witted, please enlighten me, villa Lord. Cheng Wei stopped guessing. A shrewd subordinate knew when to stop asking questions, even if it was his master who asked him to do so from the start.
I want her to help me kill someone. w.a.n.g Qiong said.
Her martial arts is very high? Cheng Weis eyes moved slightly.
Its not high, w.a.n.g Qiong said,in the words of the pugilistic world Third-rate.
But the amount of money you spent on her is enough to hire at least ten first-cla.s.s experts to work for you, Cheng Wei said.
Heh But the people I want her to kill, even if I hire twenty first-cla.s.s experts, will still not return, w.a.n.g Qiong said.
Cheng Wei was silent.
By right, he should be asking who?
But he didnt ask. He didnt dare to ask, and he didnt want to know.
Why dont you ask who that is? w.a.n.g Qiong asked.
Your subordinate Wouldnt dare, Cheng Wei replied.
Heh That means youve already guessed it, w.a.n.g Qiong said.
Yes, Cheng Wei couldnt deny.
But I want you to know 100%, not just a little, w.a.n.g Qiong said.
Thank you for your trust, villa Lord, Cheng Wei said. He had no other choice but to accept it.
I want to kill the current Emperor, w.a.n.g Qiong said.
Even though he had faintly sensed that he would hear such an answer, when he heard it, Cheng Weis mind still buzzed, and the huge pressure instantly made his stomach churn.Villa Lord May I ask why?
Because he wanted to kill me, w.a.n.g Qiong replied.
Cheng Wei nodded. He didnt ask how do you know? he knew very well that w.a.n.g Qiong would have his own way of finding out
Therefore, if w.a.n.g Qiong said the Emperor wanted to kill him, then the Emperor would kill him.
Why hasnt he made a move yet? Cheng Wei asked.
This was indeed a problem If the Emperor wanted to kill someone, did he have to wait?
Hmph! w.a.n.g Qiong snorted coldly.Hmph Hes already made his move. He clenched his right fist and said angrily,and Youre one step ahead of me.
What? Cheng Weis expression changed.Youre saying His a.s.sa.s.sins have already been dispatched?
Theyve not just moved out, theyve already come to me,w.a.n.g Qiong said.
Villa Lord! When Cheng Wei heard this, his face turned pale and he knelt on the ground.Could it be that you suspect that I
Hey, Im not talking about you w.a.n.g Qiong looked impatient. He turned his head and said,dont be so surprised. Get up and talk.
Cheng Wei wiped the cold sweat off his face and stood up again. After calming down a little, he thought for a moment and said,Then youre referring to That Zhang San?
He is indeed in cahoots with the a.s.sa.s.sin, but his mission has already been completed, w.a.n.g Qiong said as he stuffed another piece of pastry into his mouth.
What? Cheng Wei didnt understand.Villa Lord Who is that a.s.sa.s.sin?
Thats the woman,w.a.n.g Qiong shrugged.
Before he said this, Cheng Wei didnt understand, and after he finished, Cheng Wei was even more confused.
You dont understand? w.a.n.g Qiong said,youll understand when I tell you.
Villa Lord, please speak. Cheng Wei cupped his fists.
w.a.n.g Qiong finished the rest of the cake in his mouth with tea, cleared his throat, and organized his thoughts. He said,First of all, let me ask you Do you know about the Mirage?
Your subordinate does not know. Cheng Wei shook his head and replied.
Although he had once been a member of the pugilistic world, he had followed w.a.n.g Qiong for so many years that Cheng Weis relations.h.i.+p with the pugilistic world had long since become very faint. Unless w.a.n.g Qiong had given him instructions, he would not deliberately inquire and understand those more secretive news.
There are four killers. After a short pause, w.a.n.g Qiong continued,four a.s.sa.s.sins who are unknown but never fail.
These words were a very high evaluation.
For an a.s.sa.s.sin,few people know was more terrifying than never failed.
Its said that these four people each have an ability that is unparalleled in the world. w.a.n.g Qiong said,and the four skills are The mirror disguising technique, the flower beauty, the water internal strength, and the moon Qinggong.
Disguising technique? Cheng Weis reaction was quite fast.Could it be that Zhang San is
Yes, he s Jing . w.a.n.g Qiong continued,the woman he sent over was flower.
He pursed his lips as if he was reminiscing about the dessert he had just eaten. After a short silence, he spoke again,And flower is the only one among the four who has a chance to kill the Emperor.
Hearing this, Cheng Wei gradually caught up with w.a.n.g Qiongs thoughts.Is this the reason why the village head spent so much money to capture him?
Yes, w.a.n.g Qiong nodded and said,if we want to kill the Emperor, we have to find flowerIllusionary flower and moon in water are all very difficult to find. But half a month ago, I accidentally found flower s whereabouts due to an unusual incident. He raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Wei.That matter You should know about it.
Half a month ago Cheng Wei mumbled,are you referring to King Yu s hunting Fox meets immortal incident?
Not many people knew about the matter he was talking about because it was not considered a Jianghu matter or court matter. If one had to cla.s.sify it, it was probably a romantic story
The general plot was not complicated. A rather powerful Prince once went out hunting and accidentally met a beautiful fairy by a Lake. Then he invited the beauty back to his mansion and treated her with courtesy as a distinguished guest, hoping that one day he could move the Beautys heart.
Of course, there were many logical problems in this story. There were two main ones: Firstly, even if King Yu was l.u.s.tful, the people around him should understand This womans appearance was very strange, and her background was unknown. Why would he bring her back to the kings residence? Second, even if everyone accepted that setting, how difficult would it be for a Prince to take a commoners daughter? No matter what, he couldnt enter the rhythm of chasing a G.o.ddess like a spare tire, right?
In short, the unreasonable part was quite prominent, which also greatly reduced the authenticity of the story. It was just that In that era, communication was basically based on shouting. It was pa.s.sed on by word of mouth and spread with false words. In the end, there were many stories that were spread beyond recognition. There were even more ridiculous stories than this. Therefore, not many people knew about this story, and not many people questioned it.
Untilw.a.n.g Qiong heard the story.
w.a.n.g Qiongs intelligence network was spread all over the martial world, the court, and the people
As a result, he knew many things that others would never know in their entire lives, and he could also make many conjectures that others would never think of.
Although w.a.n.g Qiong wasnt 100% sure, he was at least 50% sure that the fairy that Lao Ai was currently visiting at King Yus mansion was the flower in the mirror and the moon, and King Yu was her target.
After coming to this conclusion, w.a.n.g Qiong immediately used his connections to carry out a mission to kidnap a woman from the residence of King Yu.
w.a.n.g Qiong understood that once King Yu died, that woman would also disappear. An a.s.sa.s.sin like her would definitely disappear as soon as the mission was completed. Therefore, he had to be quick, to find that woman as soon as possible, or he might miss this rare and only opportunity.
Therefore, he went to the four unique of Yu Ling. The four of them might not be the best candidates, but they were the most suitable choices at that time.
However, it had been almost ten days since the four of them had set off. In the end, the person who had brought the flower to w.a.n.g Qiong was not one of the four unique of Yu Ling, but rather Jing.
I Still dont understand. Cheng Wei pondered for a moment and said,according to what the heightslord said, the mirror and the flower are here to kill you?
Yes. w.a.n.g Qiong said.
But you were the one who sent someone to bring the flower back. Cheng Wei said,and Isnt her target King Yu?
Her target From the very beginning, was me. w.a.n.g Qiong said, almost word for word.
Hearing this, Cheng Weis thoughts were once again disrupted. He followed the villa Lords instructions and went over the matter again. Finally, after three minutes, he suddenly realized,Then the matter of King Yu s hunting the fox and meeting the immortal Was it arranged by the Emperor?
Youve finally thought of it, w.a.n.g Qiong nodded his head.I told you. The Emperor wants to kill me. But if you want to kill me, w.a.n.g Qiong It wont be that easy. He knows very well that once I sense his killing intent, Ill immediately take action, striking first to gain the upper hand.
After thinking through this, he laid this trap
Only the Emperor can make a PRINCE Act for him.
This show was for me to see, because only I could tell from the show that the flower is going to a.s.sa.s.sinate King Yu.
And I Did fall into their trap.
This time, Cheng Wei followed w.a.n.g Qiongs train of thought and continued,As for that mirror It should be a kind of guarantee. If there were no accidents, he wouldnt have to make a move. But obviously An accident happened.
Well w.a.n.g Qiong replied.Its said that a man who can charm the world with a flower will be completely mesmerized by her with just a glance. Some men might even be willing to be killed by her. Therefore, even with her third-rate martial arts, she has never failed He paused. Although Ive told the four unique of Yuling not to let men confirm the appearance of the goods, and not to look at her on the way, Ive already told them that Im not allowed to see her. But I think They probably didnt do it.
His deduction was very accurate When he s.n.a.t.c.hed the flower from the kings residence, the head of the four unique, zou ting That big brother Really did not see the goods from the beginning to the end. As the one with the highest Kung Fu among the four uniques, he was responsible for bringing up the rear, while the goods was quickly taken away by the other three.
The problem was with their third brother. This person was usually quite lecherous and often visited the brothels. However, it was precisely this kind of person who felt that his self-control was particularly good. It was as if his dog-like behavior in the face of ordinary women would turn into a state of calmness in front of a real beauty.
Things changed just like that. When the third brother saw Huas appearance, the second brother, Zhu Cheng, who was impersonated by Jing, knew that this person could not be kept alive. Otherwise, he would definitely cause trouble. As a result, he killed the third brother before zou ting could meet up with them.
Fourth sister didnt have much to say about this. Third brother was indeed seeking his own death.
As for what happened after zou ting rushed to mi Luan Inn, it was just as he had written The third brothers death had also aroused his curiosity. The difference between zou ting and the third brother was that the third brother thought that he was a person with a strong self-control, while zou ting was really a person with a strong self-control.
Unfortunately, after seeing the flower, zou tings heart was in a mess.
He started to think about his mission
w.a.n.g Qiong naturally wouldnt tell him something as heaven-defying as I want this woman to kill the Emperor. He used an even simpler reason to urge me to sleep with this woman.
It was very simple and very convincing, but after zou ting saw that woman, this reason and purpose became an extremely unstable factor.
Huas beauty was enough to make a man like zou ting give up a huge reward and give her freedom And his goal was only to occupy even an inch of her heart.
When this thought became clearer and more resolute, zou ting also lost his life.
Since things had come to this, there was no need for Jing Ye to continue pretending It was logical for him to kill the third brother, but to kill zou ting The real Zhu Cheng did not have such high martial arts skills.
Thus, he went all out and killed all of the four unique of Yuling. He burned these people and the innocents in the inn to the ground, then personally delivered the flowers to w.a.n.g Qiong.
Villa Lord After Cheng Wei thought through the whole matter, he took the opportunity to flatter,Divine foresight, this subordinate is impressed
Ha w.a.n.g Qiong laughed and said,if hes really smart, I should have figured it out when I was talking to Jing. He held his chin with one hand and grabbed another piece of pastry.But in fact When you told me that she was still a Virgin, I just managed to sort out my thoughts.
Uh Cheng Wei didnt quite understand.Right, this subordinate doesnt know Whether that woman is a Virgin or not, what does it have to do with that?
I know a few more things about the Mirage, w.a.n.g Qiong said. For example The four of them are biological siblings
When he said this, Cheng Weis other question,why didnt Jing fall for the flower, was also solved.
For example Flower has never allowed any man to have her w.a.n.g Qiong continued,another example Other than her voice and appearance, Jing can also imitate other peoples martial arts moves and even their internal energy He gave a few random examples and did not finish them. He then continued,in short, considering King Yus character There is nothing more convincing than this about the ident.i.ty of flower.
With this reminder, Cheng Wei also came to his senses King Yu was famous for being lecherous, and people called him the devil of l.u.s.t, the devil of flowers. He basically wouldnt let off any woman who was slightly more beautiful. It was abnormal for a woman to be taken from his residence and still have a pure body.
En Cheng Wei muttered,now I understand everything. He paused for half a second and continued,since villa master already knows that the other party is here to kill you, its easy to handle Ill arrange a group of strong people Of course, theyre all women Immediately go and get rid of those flowers
Wait, Who said anything about killing her? w.a.n.g Qiong interrupted him.
This You mean To lock him up first? Cheng Wei was stunned again.
w.a.n.g Qiong picked up his teacup, took a big gulp of tea, and rinsed his mouth with it. Then, he got down from the brick bed.No, Ill go talk to her first.
What? Cheng Wei almost shouted out these two words, but he held back in the end.
Villa Lord Cheng Wei said,didnt you just say That as long as a man sees the appearance of a flower
Ha w.a.n.g Qiong laughed.Its not that I want to say it, but it s legendary . He put his hands behind his back.That kind of nonsense I dont believe it.
But Cheng Wei revealed a worried expression.The four unique of Yu Ling
Hahaha w.a.n.g Qiong laughed out loud.Theyre them, and Im me. Im sure that the legend is fake, and Im going to find out whats going on now.
Then what if Cheng Wei said.
w.a.n.g Qiong shook his head with a smile. He turned around and walked out of the room.If its true, then whats the harm in me dying in this legend?
