The grass in the factory should be plucked

Chapter 118 Assassin

The villa of Prince Qi's palace.

Nangong Xihe was lying on the ground trembling with fear. There was a tall man with handsome features sitting leisurely above him.

The man was wearing a wide robe with big sleeves and looked lazy. His long hair was mixed with many silver threads. His delicate face looked exceptionally young, which made him seem even more mysterious and unpredictable.

"Saint Envoy Gong died because of you. How does Your Highness intend to compensate me?"

The hoarse voice made Nangong Xihe feel like he was falling into an ice cellar.

"King of Gu, please understand! It was that little eunuch Xie Changan who killed the Holy Envoy Gong..."

It turned out that the man sitting in the upper seat was actually the feared Southern Xinjiang Gu King in the martial arts world!

The Gu King smiled coldly: "No matter who killed her, it was all because of you. Don't you want to admit it, Your Highness?"

Nangong Xihe was sweating profusely: "I admit it, I admit it! I can offer all the wealth of the palace to you! I only ask for your life!"

"What do I need your entire fortune for?" The Gu King said slowly, "I want the Holy Envoy."

Nangong Xihe said tremblingly: "The dead cannot be resurrected, and the Holy Envoy Gong has been..."

She has turned into ashes, where can I return the Holy Envoy to you? Nangong Xihe wanted to cry but had no tears.

"Since you can't pay it back, then," the Gu King smiled, "give me your body instead."

Nangong Xihe was shocked: "Sir...what do you mean?"

"I'll give you two choices." The Gu King's eyes were cold, "Become my Holy Envoy, or die."

“I am willing…” Nangong Xihe gritted his teeth and knelt down, “I will become the Holy Envoy of the Gu King and follow His Excellency the Gu King until death!”

This Southern Xinjiang Gu King gave people a terrifying feeling of being on the edge of an abyss. I wonder what kind of terrible situation one will face if he becomes his holy envoy?

But right now, the most important thing is to save your life!

“Hahahaha…” The Gu King laughed, “Okay!”

He stretched out a slender hand, and there were two small winged insects on his fingertips!

"Plant this pair of Gu worms, and you will be the Holy Envoy under the throne of my Southern Xinjiang Gu King."

Nangong Xihe was trembling with fear: "Is it necessary to do this?"

"Words are not enough." The Gu King smiled, "How do I know if you are lying to me?"

He added, "Plant this pair of poisonous insects, and I will teach you the art of poison."

"Really?" Nangong Xihe's eyes flashed with desire. Does this mean that he can also become a master of witchcraft?

Then wouldn't he be able to take revenge and seize the throne?

"I am willing to follow the orders of His Excellency Gu King!" Nangong Xihe said excitedly, "If Gu King can help me ascend to the throne, Da Chu..."

He gritted his teeth and said, "It's yours!"

“Hahahaha…” Seeing him being so smart, the Gu King laughed heartily.

"Good, good! Saint Envoy Nangong really pleases me."

He flicked his fingertips and two poisonous insects flew towards Nangong Xihe.

The poisonous insect entered his body, and Nangong Xihe suddenly felt a heart-wrenching pain. He screamed and struggled on the ground...

Three days later.

Late at night, a tall black shadow flew lightly into the imperial palace.

He hid in the darkness, figured out the direction, and then flew towards the East Palace.

A team of guards were patrolling outside the East Palace.

A black shadow floated down from the roof, and with a wave of his long sleeves, the team of guards fell to the ground with a plop.

The sound was not loud in the dark, but it alarmed the shadow guards of the East Palace.

Yingba immediately released a warning signal, and a red firework exploded in the sky above the East Palace.

"Liao Yangou's lackey, what a trouble!"

The black shadow made a "tut" sound and killed Ying Ba, who tried to stop him, with a palm strike.

"There are assassins!"

The palace guards and secret guards immediately took action, some to protect the emperor and some to rush to the rescue.

Xie Changan happened to be on duty in the palace that night. He was surprised to see red fireworks rising above the East Palace. He immediately gathered all his internal strength and rushed forward like lightning.

Outside the imperial city, Jiang Li and Yin Twelve had just completed their mission and were about to return to the East Factory when they saw a red firework explode in the sky.

"Oh no, there is an assassin in the palace!" Yin Twelve's face changed.

"That's..." Jiang Li identified the direction and his face changed drastically, "That's the East Palace!"

"Twelve Brother, I'll go first!"

She used all her light skills to fly away like a shooting star.

Yin Twelve hurriedly chased after him.

In the East Palace, Ying Qi protected Nangong Qinghe and hid in the secret room of the study.

Nangong Qinghe asked in a trembling voice: "Who is this assassin who could break into the imperial palace?"

Ying Qi comforted him, "Don't worry, Your Highness. Ying Ba has sent out a signal. Lord Liao, Lord Xie, and the secret guards will be here soon."

He felt gloomy in his heart, Yingba... was probably in great danger!

When Xie Changan arrived, the guards and secret guards were surrounding the assassin.

The assassin was wearing a wide robe with big sleeves, his long hair mixed with silver threads was flying, and his beautiful eyebrows and eyes made it impossible to tell his age.

Even when surrounded by numerous guards, he walked as if he was strolling in the garden. With a flick of his long sleeves, the guards fell to the ground.

"Shoot!" Xie Changan ordered in a deep voice.

Feather arrows and crossbow arrows were fired at the same time, but the man did not dodge or evade. He flicked his long sleeves lightly, and the rain of arrows fell one after another, but they could not hurt him at all!

Xie Changan's face froze. This man's martial arts had reached perfection. He was no match for him!

I just hope I can hold on until Lord Governor arrives.

He let out a low shout, drew his sword and rushed forward. With a flash of sharp light, the assassin's sleeve was actually cut by the blade!

The assassin uttered a "huh" sound, as if he was quite surprised, and looked at him intently: "Xie Changan?"

"Exactly!" Xie Changan said coldly, "Who are you? How dare you break into the imperial palace at night! Why don't you surrender now!"

The assassin looked at him with great interest. He saw that he had a handsome face, a tall and slender figure, and a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes. Even though his eyes were cold, they were still sparkling and seemed to be able to captivate people.

Such a handsome, evil, yet heroic person is really rare.

He was fond of beautiful women and originally wanted to take the King of Qi's life, but when he saw that he was as beautiful as an orchid and a jade tree, he could not bear to kill him and instead took him under his command.

Now that he had seen a figure like Xie Changan, he was even more excited and said with a smile, "If you leave Liao the eunuch and join me, I will spare your life."

"Stop talking nonsense and look at the knife!" Xie Changan's eyes became fierce and he swung his knife to attack.

The assassin flicked his sleeves lightly, and a powerful internal force attacked, and Xie Changan was immediately forced to retreat a few steps.

"Go!" he ordered the secret guards.

The secret guards rushed forward to besiege the man. Xie Changan used the divine body-refining technique to suppress the internal energy running wild in his chest. With a flash of knife, he also joined the battle.

With the help of the Divine Movement Body Refining Technique, his sword light became even sharper.

The assassin laughed and said, "You are quite skilled, I am reluctant to kill you."

"Who are you?"

"I am the Southern Xinjiang Gu King. Do you want to become my disciple?" The Gu King smiled slightly.

The Gu King of Southern Xinjiang!

Everyone was suddenly frightened and pale.

Rumor has it that anyone who has seen this Southern Xinjiang Gu King will die alive!

Xie Changan said sternly: "You Nanjiang Miao Gu have repeatedly provoked me. Do you think there is no one in my Great Chu? Since the Gu King has come in person, then stay!"

"All secret guards, listen up and form a formation!"

The secret guards immediately formed a sword formation and surrounded the Gu King.

Xie Changan secretly bit his tongue, gathered all his internal strength, and the sword light was as fast as lightning, carrying the power of wind and thunder, and merging with the sword formation of the secret guards, like a long sword that could break the sky, and chopped towards the Gu King fiercely!
