Chapter 141: Forest Assassination 3

stand the seriousness of this matter, please be at ease.""Alright, it's late. You should rest now. Make sure you don't be late tomorrow.""Well, brother emperor, farewell."After Su Ziyixing left, Su Qi...On the other side, Su Ziyi and Shangguan Jinghong, who had been searching for the two since the afternoon, returned late at night. Their faces were grim, radiating an aura of coldness that kept people at bay.

Huan Yuan Che looked at their team until the very end, but he still didn't see Su Qingying's figure. His sword eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he said nervously, "East Yue Crown Prince, I wonder if the Fifth Princess has been found"

"The vastness of the forest makes it so difficult to find them!" Su Ziyi felt anxious. Inside the tent, the firelight flickered, illuminating Su Ziyi and Shangguan Jinghong's handsome faces in a dim, heavy light.

Though I had the answer in my heart, seeing Su Ziyì shake his head, my face paled involuntarily. An unprecedented sense of powerlessness swept over me, "Then her…"

"Look, isn't that the Prince of Nanjiang He seems badly injured!" As soon as Su Ziyi and his group stepped out of the forest, Zhao Tianqi was carried out on horseback, unconscious.

That bloody body, with arrows straight through his right thigh and heart, the sharp tips exposed, was a terrifying sight.

Fresh blood flowed in the rain, filling the air with the stench of iron. A heavy gloom settled over everyone's hearts.

For a time, many people gathered around. Now Zhao Tianqi was unconscious, and it was unknown whether he was alive or dead. Xuen Yuan Luocheng quickly ordered someone to carry him down and called for the imperial physician. “Come here, call for the imperial physician.”

Having soothed the anxieties of people from all nations, Xuan Yuan Luo Chen had to take this matter seriously. Now that Zhao Tian Qi had met with an accident, Jun Li Ye Su Qing Ying could not possibly have any more incidents, "Dragon Shadow Guard, gather a few thousand soldiers and horses immediately to follow me into the forest."

Su Ziyi automatically stepped forward, “Wait, this palace will go with you.”

"Consider me one of you." Shangguan Jinghong also rode his horse to catch up with the team. It was both night and raining, and Shangguan Jinghong couldn't help but worry about Jun Liye's safety.

"Well, Mo, you stay here," With many people having left, Xuen Yuan Luo Chen ordered Xuen Yuan Mo to remain and preside over the situation, lest anything else should happen. He then turned with the rest and headed into the dense forest.

Su Qingying and Jun Liye were driven to the edge of a cliff by Lan Xiny Yao's relentless attacks. They both sustained injuries all over their bodies, despite their impressive skills. Even with their strength, they couldn't withstand such relentless assaults, especially since Lan Xiny Yao never made a move, always watching them intently for any sign of weakness.

The rain intensified, blurring vision. Corpses littered the ground, blood flowing like rivers, the cloying stench of death filling the air.

Lan Xin Yao coldly watched them struggling in their death throes, the bloodthirsty smile on her lips only highlighting her madness.

She didn't expect Su Qingying to be so agile, her decisive and ruthless hands were like a natural killer, which surprised her.

But who cares, she'll be dead at her hands soon enough!

"Damn! Where the hell did Lan Xin Yao find these people They're all reckless fighters, killing one wave and another keeps coming!" Su Qingying fiercely wiped the blood splattered on her face. The non-stop fighting left her breathing ragged.

His sword-like brows furrowed, Jun Li's eyes held a menacing glint. His blood-red eyes were as dark and deep as if stained with blood, reflecting an eerie light. "If my guess is right, they should be the Blue Clan's most important trump card - elite assassins cultivated for years. They fear neither death nor life, stopping at nothing until their goals are achieved. The most troublesome kind."

"Damn it! The Lan family are truly insane!" Su Qingying cursed inwardly, and suddenly caught sight of a horde of people swarming from all directions. She drew her sword and charged towards Lan Xinyao, slashing at her.

They exuded a palpable sense of killing intent, their movements swift as ghosts, their strikes sharp and lethal. They pressed the attackers relentlessly, forcing them to retreat step by step.

Suddenly, Su Qingying felt a strange feeling in her heart. This was very similar to her own methods!

Su Qingying couldn't help but point at them, saying, "Well Alì, look, aren't these your reinforcements"

"No, my reinforcements aren't that fast." Jun Liye naturally saw it too, his expression slightly stunned. Su Qingying was dumbfounded, "Then they..."

"Falling Moon Palace." Although he didn't know why, Falling Moon Palace felt so familiar to him. He wouldn't mistake it for anything else.

Upon hearing this, Su Qingying let out a snort, her voice icy as she spoke, the vinegar of jealousy churning in her heart, "Looks like your little lover doesn't want you to die!"

"......Jun Liye was choked by this inexplicable sourness and couldn't breathe. "

"Great protector, this matter has nothing to do with your Luoyue Palace. Don't meddle!" The sudden intervention of the Luoyue Palace caught Lan Xinyao off guard. She hadn't expected them to interfere, and she didn't dare provoke the renowned Luoyue Palace. She could only suppress her anger and speak out.

"Too bad to disappoint you, this matter is under the jurisdiction of Luyue Palace!" Under the rain curtain, a blurry figure stood straight on the high rock, a blue robe swaying freely. The voice carried an unrestrained evil but was not diminished in domineering aura. The sharp and fierce demeanor around her inexplicably made Lan Xin Yao feel oppressed, "Whoever you want to kill, Luyue Palace has nothing to do with it, but if you want to touch Su Qingying, Luyue Palace must intervene!"

Upon hearing this, Lan Xinyao's face turned as white as paper, her blood draining away. She gritted her teeth unwillingly and asked, "What is Su Qingying's relationship with you Why do you defend her so much"

She had finally waited for this opportunity. In order to ambush Su Qingying, she had almost used up the power hidden by the Lan family for many years, suffering heavy losses. If she stopped now, she wouldn't know when she could have another chance to kill her! She was unwilling, she really couldn't bear it! Why could Su Qingying always be so lucky Everyone helped her!

"Arli, it seems your little lover has abandoned you. Look, she doesn't even want to save you." With someone helping her kill enemies, Su Qingying finally had an easier time. She took the opportunity to tease Jun Liye and casually smeared Yun Ling's reputation.

"..." Jun Liye's mouth twitched.

This vengeful girl!

Without getting a response, Su Qingying nudged Jun Liye with her elbow and continued to chat nonchalantly, "What do you think the Falling Moon Palace wants me for Could it be because of you If that's true, what do you think Yun Ling would do to get me away from you Would she give me a hefty sum of money That's how all those melodramatic soap operas go nowadays, you know."

"So, are you choosing money or me Hmm" Having grown accustomed to her peculiar vocabulary, Jun Liye mirrored her gesture, crossing her arms and meeting her gaze. Her bewitching blood-red eyes narrowed meaningfully.

This is definitely a topic worth discussing, otherwise with her greedy nature, who knows if she'll be scammed one day and left helpless

His ears twitched, and he listened intently to their idle chatter word for word, a black line forming on his face. "Hey hey," he thought, "this isn't the time for chit-chat! You're being assassinated here! Can you be serious What do you think this is doing to these assassins"

However, Yu Feng couldn't help but perk up his ears. He was quite curious about her answer as well.

"As for this—" Su Qingying playfully winked, feigning profundity. "Naturally, it depends on how much the other party is willing to give. If they offer too much money, I might have to consider it, after all... Hey! Jun Liye..."

"Looks like you're itching for a beating!" Jun Liye laughed, a chilling sound. He pulled her over and had her lie on his lap, then slapped her plump buttocks with the back of his hand.ence among the crowd. Everyone's head was adorned with a few thick black lines."I've seen people throw stones down wells, but I've never seen anyone do it like this! To gloat so openly in front of som...
