The coldness from the blade seeped into Shang Yao's fair skin and reached her heart!
Xiao Zheng dared to attack the Vatican at night and kill the strongest expert of the Vatican. He also dared to go alone and kill the peerless expert, Itō. Even Shang Jingtian "surrendered" when facing Xiao Zheng who was holding a heavy blade!
Perhaps it was not a complete surrender. But it was obvious that Shang Jingtian did not want to be enemies with Xiao Zheng!
At this moment, Xiao Zheng, who was enraged by the Yan Family's trap, had a ferocious look in his eyes. He placed the blade on Shang Yao's neck and used his other hand to scratch Shang Yao's skin like an eagle's claw. Blood flowed down!
Shang Yao frowned. Maybe it was because of the pain, or maybe she could be killed by Xiao Zheng at any time. Shang Yao's expression was solemn, but she did not say anything.
What could she say?
At this moment, what else could she say?
Even if Xiao Zheng killed her on the spot! It was also her "just deserts"!
Everything that Xiao Zheng did recently was to pave the way for her to take down Yen Teng-kuei.
But on the contrary, she could not protect Xiao Zheng. Instead, she was almost killed by her grandfather's trap —
Maybe it was out of guilt, or maybe it was out of spite. Shang Yao cooperated with Xiao Zheng. Not only did she not move, she even moved closer to Xiao Zheng so that he could control her more easily. So that Shisan and Nangong Ning did not have a chance to attack!
She knew how powerful Xiao Zheng was. But at the same time, she also knew how terrifying the two of them were.
One of them was one of the Eight Absolute Experts. The other was a true peerless expert. What were the chances of Xiao Zheng winning when facing two experts of the same level? What were the chances of him losing?
She did not know what Xiao Zheng's real intention was. But at least — she was in his hands, and he could leave safely!
This was the only thing the guilt-ridden Shang Yao could do for Xiao Zheng!
"Xiao Zheng! Are you courting death? "Yen Teng-kuei, who had been kneeling on the ground, suddenly stood up and shouted furiously. "If you dare to harm a single hair on my cousin's head, I'll make sure you die a horrible death!"
At this time, he was actually excited?
Putting aside the fact that he had tried to assassinate Shang Yao, would he be able to deal with the current Xiao Zheng?
How was he better than Xiao Zheng? How could he defeat Xiao Zheng?
If not, where would he get the ability to kill Xiao Zheng?
Then, why did he suddenly make things difficult for her? Even spouting nonsense?
Because he was putting on a show!
Putting on a show in front of Yan Shichang!
He no longer had any trump cards. His official position was gone, and his father and aunt could no longer support him. The only thing he could do was to please Yan Shichang, his grandfather, who could decide his fate!
As he knelt, he tried his best to put himself in a humble position. He thought about what he had done in the past few years, and all of Shang Yao's decisions.
In comparison, Shang Yao was indeed more qualified to inherit the Yan Family than he was.
Why?
Because everything he had done was for himself, and he had never cared about the Yan Family!
What about Shang Yao?
She looked like she was doing it for him, but she was actually doing it for the Yan Family, acting as their spokesperson. That included working with Xiao Zheng to assassinate the Yan Family's most hated enemy, Itō!
In fact, no matter who killed Itō, Shang Yao had avenged Yan Shang. She had killed this enemy with her own hands!
Just based on this, Shang Yao was more powerful than him. Moreover, she had her undefeatable uncle, Shang Jingtian!
He lost.
He had lost completely!
But he did not give up!
Because he knew that if he gave up, his life would be ruined!
He wanted to fight!
How could he fight?
Fight for his grandfather's approval! Fight for Xiao Zheng's killing intent!
"Who do you think you are?!" Yen Teng-kuei walked closer, as if he was not afraid of the powerful Xiao Zheng. He took a few steps and passed Shisan and Nangong Ning, standing at the front line.
"You dare to touch my cousin?!" Yen Teng-kuei shouted. He was full of energy.
Was he afraid of Xiao Zheng?
He was scared to death!
But if he did not fight now, he would not have the chance to fight in the future!
If he could infuriate Xiao Zheng, causing Xiao Zheng to kill Shang Yao in a fit of rage. Then, he would be the only heir of the Yan Family, and his grandfather would have no other choice!
This was a vicious and cold-blooded plan, but it was also Yen Teng-kuei's last resort!
Shang Yao quietly listened to Yen Teng-kuei's threat. It sounded like he was trying to save her and intimidate Xiao Zheng. But who could not tell that Yen Teng-kuei's real motive was to infuriate Xiao Zheng?
But since things had come to this, she did not want to say anything else.
Shang Yao was not Yen Teng-kuei. She had great wisdom, not petty tricks. If she could see it, who else could not?
Grandfather?
Shang Yao laughed in her heart. If her grandfather could not even see through Yen Teng-kuei's intentions, would he deserve such respect from her father?
With the blade in his hand, Xiao Zheng coldly glanced at the aggressive Yen Teng-kuei. He curled his lips and asked coldly, "Since when did you become so brave?"
Yen Teng-kuei raised his head and puffed out his chest, "I, Yen Teng-kuei, respect heaven and earth. I am not afraid of a despicable and vicious person like you!"
"Then take two more steps forward."
Suddenly, Xiao Zheng expressionlessly spat out a sentence. In an instant, it stirred everyone's heart.
You, take two more steps forward!
Hearing this, Yan Dengkui's expression changed abruptly, and his body trembled slightly. His lips quivered a few times, but in the end, he could not say a single word.
Take two more steps forward?
Although Yen Teng-kuei was not a martial artist, he was not a fool!
Take two more steps forward, and he was only two steps away from Xiao Zheng. Even if there were two powerful figures from the Yan Family standing behind him. He was not confident that he could escape from Xiao Zheng's saber. This b * stard's martial strength was definitely not a joke!
"You don't dare?" Xiao Zheng's eyes were cold, but his voice was as deep as a mountain. "Afraid?"
Yen Teng-kuei's expression was complicated, but he did not dare to answer.
Yes.
He did not dare. He was also afraid.
Other than those on the same level as Xiao Zheng, who wouldn't be afraid of him?
Even his uncle, didn't he admit defeat on the night when Xiao Zheng came with his saber?
"You can't avoid the problem even if you're afraid."
Suddenly.
Xiao Zheng changed the topic as he scanned the crowd with a cold expression. He held the blade in his hand even tighter. Finally, he fixed his eyes on Yan Shichang's face.
At this moment, the old man's expression was rather complicated. He could not tell if it was anger or something else. But he could imagine that after so many years, Xiao Zheng was definitely the first person who dared to threaten him!
"Yan Shichang. I have a multiple-choice question here. "Xiao Zheng opened his thin lips and said word by word. "Please give me an answer."
"Hmm?" Yan Shichang's expression was cold. "What?"
"She's dead." Xiao Zheng stared at Yan Shichang expressionlessly. "Or him?"
She. It was Shang Yao!
It was him. It was Yen Teng-kuei!
Xiao Zheng was going to start a massacre in the Yan Family today!
