"I am the Wind Maiden of the Shuiyue Sect!" Hua Yuyan declared proudly. Her tone was full of reverence when she mentioned the Shuiyue Sect. It was obvious that she was very proud of her identity.
"Shuiyue Sect?" Xue Baochai's eyes flashed with confusion. "You're from Dong Ying?" If it were anyone else from the Southern Song Dynasty, they probably wouldn't have heard of the Shuiyue Sect. However, she was part of the Imperial City Department and was in charge of intelligence in the Southern Song Dynasty. Naturally, she had heard of the top masters around Temujin.
"Why are people of the Shuiyue Sect here?" A voice suddenly came from behind her.
The Wind Maiden turned around. When she saw that it was Jia Baoyu, she let out a sigh of relief. She also felt a little strange. She had clearly seen him here, but why did she keep forgetting that there was someone else here?
Song Qingshu, on the other hand, was in a very bad mood. This was not the first time he had heard of the Shuiyue Sect. Last time in Xiangyang, Huang Rong had been kidnapped by his subordinate, Guard Lin, and he had even drugged her with that despicable thing.
To a certain extent, he had to thank him for drugging her … but that was not the main point. The main point was that Guard Lin had been too despicable.
Now that the Wind Maiden had also come to play these kinds of tricks, were all the disciples of the Shuiyue Sect like this?
Seeing that it was Jia Baoyu, the Wind Maiden was relieved. According to the intelligence she had received, he did not know any martial arts. Furthermore, when they had been in close contact, she had not sensed any internal energy fluctuations from him.
"Our master has invited all of you to the North as guests, so he has sent me to welcome you." The Wind Maiden replied with a smile. Now that the situation had been decided, she did not mind enjoying the leisure of a victor.
Song Qingshu frowned, then understood. "So it was Xu Liewu who lacked confidence and sent his subordinates to get rid of the other competitors first."
The Wind Maiden had a look of fear on her face. "Of course not," she said hurriedly. "The Prince is a genius, wise and mighty. How could you good-for-nothings be a match for him?"
Song Qingshu could not help but wonder at her attitude. "From your tone, it seems that you are quite afraid of him?"
The Wind Lady's expression changed, and she said solemnly, "The prince is invincible, and we, as his subordinates, are sincerely convinced. Naturally, our tone will be more respectful."
Song Qingshu nodded, "I understand. Xu Lie Wu's pride wouldn't stoop so low as to do such a thing. The Water Moon Great Sect must have made the decision on their own and sent you to deal with the other candidates, doing Xu Lie Wu a favor."
The Wind Maiden was infuriated by the fact that he wasn't afraid in the slightest. "Why do you have so many questions? You have to understand your situation. You're my prisoner!"
Xue Baochai couldn't help but look at him worriedly, afraid that he would anger the Wind Maiden.
Song Qingshu smiled. "Just now, you clearly said that you would invite us as guests. Have you revealed your true colors now?"
"You talk too much." The Wind Lady's expression was dark as she approached Seiji with a knife. "It's better to tie him up."
Song Qingshu shook his head. "I'm so calm. Don't you wonder where my confidence comes from?"
"Where?" The Wind Maiden tightened her grip on the knife in her hand. She had wanted to ask this question for a long time.
Song Qingshu suddenly let out a long sigh. "If you don't come out, I'm going to be killed by this angry woman."
As soon as he finished speaking, the window of the room was suddenly smashed open. A figure rushed in, but what was even faster than the figure was the flash of a sword. A sword that glowed with a cold light!
The sword danced, and with a "whoosh, whoosh, whoosh", it stabbed out three times in an instant.
These three stabs were not only fast and hurried, but all of them were aimed at the Wind Maiden's vitals. His swordsmanship might not be at the peak, but there were very few people in the martial world who could compare to him in terms of viciousness and cruelty. His eyes also flashed with a cruel, beast-like green light. It was as if his greatest hobby in life was to kill, and his only purpose in life was to kill.
The way he swung his sword was also very strange. Everything above his elbow didn't seem to move, and he only used the strength of his wrist to stab out. He was never willing to expend any energy when it wasn't necessary.
The Wind Maiden cried out in surprise. She held a long and a short sword in her hands and protected herself impenetrably.
Song Qingshu secretly nodded as he watched. The Water Moon Sect was indeed the number one expert in Japan. Even their disciple's swordsmanship was so impressive.
However, she had lost the initiative, and the Central Plains Red's sword was too fast and too ruthless. She dodged seven consecutive strikes, but she couldn't dodge the eighth.
Blood blossomed on her chest, and the Wind Maiden screamed in pain. She raised her wrist, and several cold sparks shot towards Song Qingshu.
The Central Plains Red frowned. It was obvious that she had been struggling internally. Only then did she turn around and block in front of Song Qingshu with her sword, blocking the cold sparks.
The Wind Maiden took this opportunity to throw a smoke bomb. While the room was filled with smoke and the Central Plains Red's vision was blocked, she quietly escaped.
Song Qingshu could naturally make her stay, but he didn't do anything. There was no need to expose himself.
After the smoke in the room dissipated, the Central Plains Red stared at the hidden weapons on the sword and sighed regretfully, "Saving people isn't as interesting as killing people."
Song Qingshu knew what the Central Plains Red was implying. If it wasn't to save him, the Central Plains Red wouldn't have given the Wind Maiden a chance to escape. He couldn't help but smile and say, "You're willing to kill such a charming little beauty?"
The Central Plains Red licked his lips, and a hint of excitement appeared in his eyes, "She's an expert. It's more enjoyable to kill experts."
Song Qingshu was speechless. This person was really a monster, "It's just that her master is the Water Moon Sect. You can't defeat her."
The Central Plains Red frowned, "I heard that the Water Moon Sect is the number one expert in Japan. Their Water Moon Saber Technique is unpredictable. I'm a little curious. Is his saber faster or my sword faster?"
Song Qingshu couldn't help but be surprised, "You know about the Water Moon Sect? And you know his martial arts so well? "
The Central Plains Red said proudly, "As an assassin, I naturally have to investigate the famous experts in the world in advance, in case I encounter a target one day and have no idea where to start."
"Oh?" Song QingShu's curiosity was suddenly piqued. "No matter which expert it is, will you accept them?"
The Central Plains Red's eyes shone brightly, "The higher the martial arts, the more interested I am."
Song Qingshu was even more curious, "If there's a mission for you to assassinate Song Qingshu, how do you plan to do it?"
The Central Plains Red held his breath for a moment. After a long time, he said in a muffled voice, "I won't accept the mission to assassinate him."
"Why?" Xue Baochai couldn't help but ask.
The Central Plains Red replied, "I can't defeat him."
"Huh?" Xue Baochai didn't expect such an honest answer.
Her attitude hurt the Central Plains Red's pride a little, and he couldn't help but feel embarrassed and angry, "If Song Qingshu was so easy to kill, those big shots wouldn't be so troubled. I'm an assassin, not a fool. Why would I accept a mission that I know is suicide? "After saying that, his figure flashed and disappeared out of the window.
Song Qingshu couldn't help but laugh, he laughed very happily.
