While Song QingShu was in a daze, Guo Jing, who was beside him, had already reacted. He had always been an upright person and was extremely loyal to his friends. Moreover, Song QingShu had saved his life, so how could he just stand by and watch?
With a roar, he flashed between the two and blocked the maid assassin. Although the maid seemed to be good at martial arts, how could she be a match for a master like Guo Jing?
After exchanging several moves, the maid cried out in alarm and the dagger in her hand was knocked out of her hand. Guo Jing did not give her any time to catch her breath and used the 'Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms' to attack. His palm strength was extraordinary, if she did not die, she would be seriously injured. As for the fact that the other party was a woman, he did not think too much about it. In his eyes, she was a vicious assassin. He had been tempered in the flames of war for many years and experienced many assassinations, so he instinctively showed no mercy to assassins.
Just as Guo Jing's palm was about to hit the maid, suddenly there was a dragon's cry from the side, and a cold light attacked. Guo Jing's martial arts were so high that he had long been trained to see and listen in all directions. He hurriedly used the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms to try to block the opponent's long sword.
Unexpectedly, the opponent's sword technique was so mysterious that she dodged his palm strength at an incredible angle and attacked him like a maggot in a tarsal bone.
"Good!" Guo Jing shouted and did not dare to be careless. He used 120% of his energy to meet the opponent. The two of them fought back and forth. One's sword technique was exquisite and light, the other's palm technique was simple and heavy. It was a very exciting fight.
Huang Rong saw that her husband was caught off guard and lost the upper hand. The opponent's sword technique was too magical, and the attack was like a tide. She was worried that her husband would have an accident. She was about to help him despite her pregnancy when she suddenly saw the appearance of the sword user. She could not help but angrily say, "General Wu, why are you helping the assassin?"
It turned out that it was Linghu Chong who was pretending to be Wu Tiande.
After her interruption, Linghu Chong took the opportunity to withdraw his sword and jump out of the battle. Everyone present looked at him, even Han Xingzhou and the others who were on the same side as him, frowned and stared at him, waiting for a reasonable explanation.
Linghu Chong sheathed his sword and said in a very lonely tone, "Because this assassin is Song Qingshu's married wife."
"Ah?" Cries of alarm rang out in the hall, and a group of people turned to look at the assassin. At this time, the assassin had already been restrained by the guards who had rushed over.
Even though she was dressed like a maid, everyone could still see that she was extremely beautiful. The knife on her neck shone with a cold light, making her skin look so white that it was almost transparent, and there was a faint layer of redness. The group of people secretly praised in their hearts, "What a beautiful woman."
"Sage Nun?" After all, Huang Rong was a Jianghu person. She quickly recognized the woman's identity. It was Ren Yingying whom she had not seen for many days!
At this moment, Ren Yingying's delicate body trembled as she looked at Linghu Chong. She muttered to herself, "Brother Chong, is that you?" It was fine if others couldn't recognize it, but how could she not recognize Linghu Chong's swordsmanship?
Just as she was about to ask him, she immediately realized that since the other party was in disguise, he must have his own difficulties. If she were to expose his identity, it might bring unpredictable danger to him.
At this moment, she heard Linghu Chong say, "The assassin is Song Qingshu's married wife." She immediately felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and all her hopes turned to dust.
Song Qingshu also spoke at this time, "My wife and I have always liked to play this kind of joke. We are very sorry to have disturbed everyone's mood." As he spoke, he walked to the side of the guards and gently waved his sleeve. The guards immediately felt a soft force on their hands, and the long knives in their hands fell back.
Song Qingshu stepped forward and took Ren Yingying's small hand to sit back at the main table. Because he had heard Linghu Chong's words earlier, he felt as if his heart had been cut by a knife. At this moment, it was as if his soul had left his body, and he allowed Linghu Chong to pull him.
Seeing this scene, Linghu Chong, who was not far away, narrowed his eyes slightly. He only felt annoyed and wanted to vomit. He picked up the wine cup in front of the table and drained it in one gulp. When he first heard Song QingShu's words in Yangzhou, he did not completely believe it. After that, he specially went to investigate and was shocked to find that Yingying had indeed bowed to heaven and earth to marry Song QingShu. At first, he guessed that she might have been forced, but when he found out that the officiator of the wedding was Wudang's Zhang Sanfeng, he completely despaired.
After all, Zhang Sanfeng was a person of virtue and prestige, and his character was also well known. If there was any forced circumstances involved, he would definitely not officiate the wedding for these two. When he thought of this, Linghu Chong drank another cup of wine in one gulp.
Song Qingshu pulled Ren Yingying to sit down and introduced her to the crowd, "This is my wife, Young Miss Ren of the Sun Moon Sect."
"As expected of a talented man and a beautiful woman ~" Since the main character had spoken, how could the others not be tactful enough to mention the assassination just now? They all took the opportunity to compliment each other. However, only they knew what each of them were thinking in their hearts.
Prince Yi glanced greedily at Ren Yingying's stunning face and thought to himself, "I originally thought that the women in Jianghu were all that kind of country bumpkins. I didn't expect there to be such a beautiful woman in Jianghu besides Huang Rong. Right, that Yue Fei's daughter from last time also seemed to be an outstanding beauty. It seems that I have to collect more from the White Lotus Society …"
Han Xingzhou secretly shook his head. Lust was like a knife above the head, and a young man really couldn't control himself. It was a pity that the mother and daughter of the Chen family had been sent to the palace. Otherwise, it would be good to use them to win him over.
If he knew that Chen Yuanyuan was now living in the Inner Residence, who knew how excited he would be.
Jia Shidao, on the other hand, was deep in thought. The power of the surname Song was really not to be underestimated. If the Golden Snake Camp joined forces with the Sun Moon Sect, then the Isle of Heroes' control of the Central Plains would be slowed down again.
Shi Miyuan secretly frowned. Judging from his daughter's reaction when they entered the door, it was obvious that they had a special relationship. He didn't know if Wei Ruolan knew …
Guo Jing couldn't help but whisper to his wife next to him, "Brother Song is good at everything, except that he is a little too much of a playboy."
"He is indeed a little pervert." Huang Rong's face was as white as a sheet, and under the candlelight, she looked especially delicate and beautiful.
After that, the banquet returned to peace. Song Qingshu chatted with the guests while looking at Ren Yingying from time to time. He couldn't help but secretly frown when he saw that she looked so heartbroken.
At that moment, he felt as if there was a little black devil beside his ear inciting him. The reason why Ren Yingying was so restless was mainly because he had indulged her too much. As long as he could have her body, she would resign herself to her fate. After all, the seniors had said that Dao was the fastest shortcut to a woman's heart.
Although Ren Yingying was the Saintess of the Sun Moon Sect, which was out of reach for ordinary people, it wasn't difficult for Song Qingshu to have her body. He just needed to inject some Joyful True Qi into her body, and he was sure that she would change her personality and become extremely passionate. He could also use Linghu Chong to threaten him. After all, Linghu Chong was at a critical stage before the martial arts competition. If he did something to him, he could guarantee that his future would be ruined. For the sake of her lover, she was likely to sacrifice her innocence. All the villains in TV dramas did this, so they had obtained many women from the main characters …
The more Song Qingshu thought about it, the more tempted he became. However, in the end, he gave up on this tempting impulse. After all, a melon that was forcefully picked wouldn't be sweet …
Of course, he wouldn't be so kind as to help the two of them. He just thought that the first two methods were too inferior, and he might not be able to win Ren Yingying's heart in the end. If it were an ordinary woman, Song Qingshu only needed to have her body, but Ren Yingying was different.
Looking at Yue Lingshan from the corner of his eyes, Song QingShu immediately came up with a plan.
At that moment, Han Xingzhou was looking at Guo Jing meaningfully, and Jia Shidao was also looking at Linghu Chong with a serious expression. Before, the two of them had subconsciously wanted to increase their chances of winning, but after watching the short competition between the two of them, everyone was more and more determined to play tricks.
Jia Shidao, in particular, had originally thought that Guo Jing had the upper hand in terms of martial arts, but when Wu Xi had the upper hand, she had actually made Guo Jing feel a little breathless. That sword technique was really amazing, and he also noticed that Wu Xi's inner strength had improved a lot recently. If it was a real fair competition, Jia Shidao wasn't as confident as before.
Glancing at Lady Beijing, Jia Shidao decided to speed up the implementation of his plan.
Linghu Chong didn't even realize that he had been involved in the center of the storm. At that moment, he only felt disheartened, as if he had been abandoned by the whole world. He just subconsciously poured wine into his mouth. At first, he drank one glass at a time, but later, he felt that it wasn't enough. He even grabbed the wine pot and drank directly.
Han Xingzhou frowned and finally couldn't help but remind him, "Tiande, you drank too much today!"
Linghu Chong didn't want to stay there anymore, so he took the opportunity to stand up and say, "I'm a little uncomfortable, so I'll leave now." After saying that, he couldn't help but burp loudly, which made the people around him frown and avoid him.
"Do you want me to send someone to see you off?" Song Qingshu asked with a smile.
Seeing his smile, Linghu Chong felt irritated for no reason. He waved his hand impatiently and said, "No need!" After saying that, he turned around and staggered away.
At this time, Yue Lingshan, who was not far away, suddenly looked in Song QingShu's direction with a puzzled expression, as if she was listening to something. Then, she revealed a look of surprise and delight, and quietly chased after Linghu Chong.
Seeing that Linghu Chong had left, Ren Yingying's body stiffened. She subconsciously wanted to stand up, but then she realized something and sat down again, biting her lip and not saying a word.
While others were chatting, Song Qingshu quietly said to her, "You don't have to be so cruel. You want to kill your husband as soon as you see him?"
Hearing that, Ren Yingying's face flashed with a trace of anger. "You lied to me."
"But I didn't force you." Song QingShu shrugged. "Back then, you were willing to marry me."
Ren Yingying held her breath, not knowing how to refute, so she simply turned her head away.
"Do you want to talk to your Brother Chong?" Song Qingshu suddenly asked.
Ren Yingying's body trembled, and she looked back at him in disbelief.
