The old man felt a chill run down his spine as he looked at the ninja in front of him. He had heard in Persia that the Dong Ying people were a bit abnormal in this aspect, but he had thought it was just a rumor. Now that he had seen it with his own eyes, he was really … speechless.
Guard Lin suddenly sighed, his voice full of regret. "It's a pity that she was taken back, otherwise I could have had a taste of the number one beauty in the pugilistic world. Now, she can only benefit others."
The old man suddenly had a thought. "The one who saved her from your hands was Song Qingshu?"
Guard Lin nodded. "That's right. I don't know how he found me so quickly."
"That's good." The old man suddenly laughed.
"Good?" Guard Lin didn't think there was anything good about this, but the other party's martial arts were too high, so he didn't dare to question it.
The old man continued, "Just now, I was ninety percent sure that I could kill Huang Rong, but who knew that Song Qingshu would suddenly appear. Now that I think about it, he should have been in the room at the time. A man and a woman together in the middle of the night, what good can happen?"
"You're saying that the two of them had an affair?" Guard Lin's eyes flashed with a hint of jealousy. Recalling Huang Rong's voluptuous body, he thought that the Song guy was really lucky with women.
The old man in the mountain replied, "Nothing might have really happened, but it's true that there's an ambiguous relationship between the two parties. Now that this has happened, the window paper between them will be broken, and we'll be able to clear our names."
Guard Lin quickly understood what he meant. If they killed Huang Rong or destroyed her chastity, it would indeed help the Princess and the Golden Sabre Prince Consort, but the Golden Sabre Prince Consort would definitely rise to the top in the future. When that time came, wouldn't he seek revenge?
Now, as long as they went back and reported that Huang Rong had cheated, Guo Jing naturally wouldn't blame them. For the Khan, this would avoid some potential risks, and they might even be rewarded more.
"The Song guy seems to be quite famous in the Central Plains. This can be said to be killing two birds with one stone. Not only did we solve the problem of the Golden Sabre Prince Consort, but we also dealt a heavy blow to the spiritual leader of the Han people. Senior is indeed wise." Guard Lin immediately flattered.
The Old Man of the Mountain smiled, but he began to hesitate. If he no longer wanted to restore the headquarters, then this would not be a big deal. But he was not willing to serve Temujin. Would this really be beneficial to him?
He was at a loss. As the King of Assassins, his mind could be said to be extremely tenacious. But in the past few years, he had organized thousands of assassinations and had failed. Now that he had become Temujin's subordinate, he finally realized how terrifying the Mongolians' true strength was. It made him feel a sense of despair.
"Let's take one step at a time. Let's find the Hierarch first." The old man in the mountain knew that his heart was wavering, so he quickly collected his thoughts.
On the other side, Song Qingshu was shocked when he heard Huang Rong say that he was poisoned. "What poison? Let me take a look." Over the years, he had been poisoned many times. It could be said that a long illness made a good doctor. Coupled with his current cultivation, it was not difficult for him to help people expel the poison.
Unexpectedly, Huang Rong retracted her hand as if she had been electrocuted. "No … It's nothing serious."
Song Qingshu was startled. If she was poisoned, why was it that she was fine? But then he remembered that she was once the Leader of the Beggar Sect, and her father, Huang Yaoshi, was an expert in alchemy. Her family was very knowledgeable, so she should have her own judgment. Since she said it was nothing serious, then it should not be anything serious.
"Alright then, I'll take you back to the palace first. When we get there, I'll call the imperial physician to take your pulse." Song Qingshu guessed that she probably did not want to have skin contact with him, so she was resisting.
"No, I can't go back." Huang Rong's voice was filled with panic as she shook her head vigorously.
"Why?" Song QingShu was confused. What was wrong with the other party?
"Anyway, I can't go back." Huang Rong's voice was trembling, as if she was trying to restrain herself. "Take me to the nearby river."
"River?" Song Qingshu was puzzled. Suddenly, he felt the strangeness of her body and could not help but exclaim, "Why are you even hotter than before? This shouldn't be the case. I've just helped you unblock the knot in your body. Logically speaking, your body should have cooled down by now."
Huang Rong seemed to have never felt so helpless before. Her voice carried a trace of sobbing. "That person fed me … fed me a lowly medicine."
"Lowly medicine?" Song QingShu was not a hothead, and he quickly understood what was going on. When he first noticed that the other party's body was a little strange, he thought that it was just an illness from before, so he did not pay too much attention to it. But now, he noticed that the other party's usually bright and beautiful eyes seemed to be dripping water, and her cheeks were abnormally flushed.
"Rong 'er, don't worry. This kind of medicine can be washed with cold water and you'll be fine." Song Qingshu thought of the famous Yin-Yang Harmony Powder. Washing it with cold water would be fine. This poison could not be more powerful than the Yin-Yang Harmony Powder, right?
Huang Rong was seriously ill and weak. Now that she was frightened, she did not have the strength to walk. Song Qingshu carried her and then began to look for a nearby water source.
Seeing the panic in her eyes, Song Qingshu felt pity. No matter how smart and witty she was, she was a woman after all. In the face of such a thing, women were born weak.
Being held in his arms, Huang Rong felt an inexplicable masculinity around her, which made her heart tremble. She hurriedly said to divert his attention, "Thank you. If you didn't save me in time, I'm afraid what happened to me …" When she was caught by the ninja, he said a lot of obscene words on the way, saying that he wanted to find a place to enjoy her body and so on … Thinking of this, she was scared.
"I was careless and caused you to meet with this disaster." Song Qingshu said apologetically.
Huang Rong shook her head. "No, they came for me."
"Oh?" Song Qingshu had always been curious about their background. Hearing Huang Rong's tone, it seemed that she knew something.
"When the Dong Ying people kidnapped me, they revealed some information. Although they didn't say it explicitly, I guessed that the Mongolian Khan sent them to get rid of me for the sake of his daughter's marriage." Huang Rong did not know whether to be happy or angry. From the words of the ninja, she could tell that Brother Jing's life was not in danger. Otherwise, Temujin would never want a half-dead son-in-law.
Song Qingshu had already guessed it before, and now that he heard her analysis, all the clues connected. He couldn't help but praise, "Rong 'er, you are really quick-witted. Even in that kind of situation, you could still deduce so many things from just a few words."
The corner of Huang Rong's mouth rose slightly. She felt a bit proud, but it was quickly replaced by an inexplicable surge in her body. She subconsciously clamped her legs together and asked with a red face, "Still haven't found a water source?"
Song Qingshu looked into the distance and suddenly his eyes lit up. "There's a pool over there." With a few leaps, he arrived at the edge of the pool.
"I'll go see if there's any danger around." Placing her on a rock, Song Qingshu did not wait for her to speak and turned to leave.
Seeing him so considerate, Huang Rong's heart warmed, but she had no time to think about anything else. The heat in her body was making her feel more and more uncomfortable. She quickly took off her dress, revealing a body whiter than the moonlight, and slowly soaked herself in the cold pool.
