Clash Of The Sword Titans
Chapter 58 Trial
It wasn't until this moment that Lu Li realized Mu Hongxiu's sinister intentions, but it was too late.As Ge Xinyue said, in the next month, he will indeed get injured often.
Because what is waiting for him is the assassination missions that have been piled up for a long time.
In the Yan King's bedroom, Mu Hongxiu calculated the time for a while. Lu Li should have guessed the truth by now. When he thinks of the expression on his face, Mu Hongxiu can't help but smile happily, "Xiao Huatou, this is you. No wonder I chose the path."
...
Compared with the atmosphere of King Yan's Mansion, there is a gloomy mood in the Shen family at this moment.
Shen Fangge was severely injured by Lu Li, and in front of the entire imperial capital, Shen Fan could be said to have lifted a rock and hit him in the foot.
After all, he personally invited those people to watch the battle, and he almost didn't need to think about it. Shen Fan knew all about the faces of those people afterwards and his evaluation.
When he thought of this, Shen Fan slowly closed his eyes, endured the irritation, and asked the housekeeper beside him: "Is the ancestor yet to leave."
The old housekeeper sighed and did not answer the question.
He almost grew up watching Shen Fan. During this period, the old housekeeper knew how Shen Fan defeated everyone step by step and sat in the position of the head of the Shen family.Although Shen Fan was not solely responsible for this big defeat, the old housekeeper knew that Shen Fan could no longer suppress the voices inside the Shen family.
To put it simply, before the ancestor came forward, he was back to the pot.
The silence of the old housekeeper made Shen Fan more aware of his situation, and he was a little unwilling to say: "This matter was arranged by King Yun and the ancestor. It turned out to be my fault?"
"Patriarch, be careful." The old housekeeper slowly said, "The ancestors meant that after the meeting, you should listen to your majesty's opinion before making judgments."
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, when has the ancestor been so afraid of your Majesty!?" Shen Fan was furious, with a terrifying face: "Shen family is a rich clan and lost such a big face, should he obey his majesty's decision in everything? Then why don't I take refuge in King Cang and be a true minister from the dragon?"
"Patriarch!"
The old butler suddenly drank sharply.
Shen Fan also woke up like a dream, leaning against the back of the chair, his lips trembled, and after all, he said nothing.
"A defeat means nothing. The Shen family can afford to lose. The Patriarch must not lose too much because of a small loss." The old butler calmed down his tone, with a bit of admonition.
Hearing this, Shen Fan nodded heavily, and then said, "Mr. Xun has left the imperial capital?"
Upon hearing this, the old housekeeper knew that he was worried about Shen Fangge, and explained: "The fate of master and apprentice between the young master and Mr. Xun was determined by the master of Meishan himself. It is expected that Hanshan Academy will not treat him badly."
Shen Fan was worried: "With his temperament, how can he learn those principles in Hanshan Academy? What's more, this Meishan master is not easy to follow. The cause and effect left by my Shen family and Hanshan Academy , The future is a blessing or a curse yet to be known..."
"The Patriarch can rest assured that, according to the temper of the ancestor, willing to ask the young master to study for a few years, there must be his deep meaning."
The old butler could only say a word of relief.
Shen Fan whispered: "The ancestor's thoughts, no one can guess except himself."
"But the ancestor will not harm the Shen family." The old butler lowered his head and said in the most respectful tone.
"Yeah, he won't harm the Shen family." Shen Fan did not deny it, but there was a trace of evil spirit between his eyebrows: "But except for the Shen family, he can sacrifice anyone, even if this person is himself. ."
"Indifferent and unfeeling, treating the people as chess pieces is my ancestor's masterpiece."
Shen Fan stood up, stopped the old butler's intention to follow, and said lightly: "There are still a few days left before the court meeting, before the Yanwang Mansion settles the accounts, it's time to visit the big winner."
After all, Shen Fan sorted out his clothes, did not ask anyone to accompany him, and went to the Yan Palace alone.
Looking at his back, the old butler couldn't help feeling a little chilly when he recalled the resentment when he mentioned the ancestor.
This veteran, who had served three times as the head of the Shen family, was the first time he noticed that the inside of the Shen family had become such a fragmented scene unknowingly.
The old butler bowed his head and sighed, and silently said in his heart: "Old ancestor, have you really regretted these years?"
...
"A month's time, asking me to be a killer, is this trying to force me to change my mind?"
Sitting in the room, Lu Chengli kept thinking about Mu Hongxiu's real plan.
After learning about the respective positions of the four divisions of the Heaven and Earth Wind and Thunder, he almost determined where he was going, which was the place that was mainly responsible for killing people.
As for the second wind and thunder that looks the most comfortable?
Lu Li didn't think Mu Hongxiu was so kind.
But even so, Lu Chengdi didn't have any resistance, and he was actually not qualified to resist.
During this period of time when he has not fully grown up, whether he is attached to King Yan's Mansion or other forces, he is actually similar.
If he was allowed to choose, it would be more appropriate to stay with Mu Hongxiu instead.
Although this woman has a bad temper, she has clear rewards and punishments, and there is nothing tricky.Whether it was the reward for putting him into the treasure house or the ointment sent by Toge Crescent, it was a real benefit.
In other words, after spending this period of time together, Lu Li had a certain degree of understanding of Mu Hongxiu's character. Although going to the area as a killer was not the result he wanted most, it was not the worst place to go.
'Tuk tuk'
At this moment, there was a slow knock on the door outside, making Lu Qizhong immediately vigilant.
He didn't notice any aura, indicating that the people outside were using a certain method of concealing their own aura. Obviously, it was a bit unkind to the person who came.
"But Lu Li's residence." Seeing that Lu Li did not respond, the voice of the person outside the door was low and slowly said, "In the name of King Yan, I will take you to complete the trial."
When Lu Li heard this, he did not relax his vigilance, and replied, "His Royal Highness, what else?"
The people outside did not answer immediately.
After a while, the man imitated Mu Hongxiu's voice, and said coldly: "You are a place where anyone can get in when you are King Yan's Mansion? I am afraid of death for your sake, and want to enter the power?"
After saying this, the people outside the door resumed their low tone and said: "The King Yan said that if you refuse to follow me, let me convey this sentence to you."
Lu Li licked his lips, got up and opened the door to the other party.
I saw an ordinary young man standing outside the door, wearing clothes that were indistinguishable from ordinary people, neither looked poor, nor did it attract attention.
And on that ordinary face that couldn't make any impression on people, there was no expression at all, just a glance at Lu Li, and then took out a letter of jade slip from his sleeve, "This month, you have to kill two targets every day. A total of sixty targets, no errors or omissions, no identity disclosure, the time, place, and method of killing are all up to you. Select the target, I will provide you with detailed information about the other party, and come to me to report after the killing ."
Hearing this, Lu Li took the jade slip in his hand, only feeling heavy, and said helplessly: "If I don't finish or miss, there will be no punishment, right?"
The young man looked at Lu Li and said calmly: "If you fail to complete the trial, you won't be able to enter the power of God. As for the punishment for failing..."
He paused slightly, and said sternly: "At that time, it means you are dead, so what reason is there to punish you."
