Song Jiong looked at Murong Ke, who was standing on the roof. Although he thought that the moonlight tonight was very beautiful, the weather was very good, and the spring breeze was very charming, it was, after all, the middle of the night. Standing here and feeling the night wind was really not good at all.
"Master, you have been here for almost two hours. No matter how long you stand, you can't drive the Jin Emperor away. Why don't we go back to sleep?" Song Jiong whispered.
Murong Ke took a sip of wine and said, "It's rare to have such a free time to drink. Of course, I have to enjoy it."
Song Jiong thought to himself, "Master, isn't it because he can't be alone with Lu Yaoyao?"
"Master, are we really going to Anhe City?" Song Jiong asked.
"Yes." Murong Ke nodded without hesitation. This was his decision and nothing would change it.
"You are so selfless. In order to reunite the husband and wife, you even fought for the Emperor …" Song Jiong muttered.
Murong Ke looked at him indifferently, "Did you learn your talkative habit from Teng Ye?"
Song Jiong hurriedly covered his mouth and shook his head vigorously.
"I heard that Qi Ruoshui is in the inn?" Murong Ke asked indifferently.
"Yes!" Song Jiong's expression tightened, "I heard that the Emperor sent someone to Anhe City to catch her. Qi Ruoshui's two guardians were not there. They were caught by the Emperor's secret guards."
Murong Ke smiled and threw the wine pot to Song Jiong, "Then let's go and see this Witch King of Western Liang."
"Master, that Witch King is very evil. What if she still has venomous insects?" Song Jiong said.
"If she still has the ability to use venomous insects, do you think the people guarding her are still alive?" Murong Ke asked.
"…" Song Jiong realized that he had asked a very stupid question.
After Qi Ruoshui was captured by Wu Chong, in order to prevent her from using her Gu to kill people, her hands were already crippled. Her clothes and belongings were all burned, and now she was only wearing a coarse linen dress.
She had never been so embarrassed in her life. Even when she was tortured by Chue Luan, she could still live well. Now she could only be locked in a broken woodshed.
If she could escape this time, she swore that she would make Mo Rongzhan pay.
"Is Qi Ruoshui inside?"
"Yes, Sixth Wangye."
"This King wishes to see her."
"Sixth Prince, please."
Qi Ruoshui listened to the voices outside and slightly narrowed her eyes. She felt that one of the voices sounded familiar, as if it was …
The door was pushed open and a tall figure appeared in her line of sight.
Murong Ke!
"Are you a human or a ghost?" Qi Ruoshui asked in a sharp voice.
"How long has it been since we last met? Why is the Shaman King's eyes so bad?" Murong Ke smiled faintly. Seeing Qi Ruoshui like this, he could imagine how angry this proud and arrogant girl must be.
Qi Ruoshui stared at him in disbelief. "You're not dead. You've been in the Insect Cave for so long, yet you're still alive."
Murong Ke laughed. "That's right. This Prince is just that lucky."
"Who saved you?" Qi Ruoshui asked in a sharp voice. She thought that Murong Ke had died long ago. That was the Gu Insect Cave, a place that only she could enter and leave in the entire Priest Hall. How did Murong Ke survive?
He was the first person to survive after being poisoned … No, he wasn't the first. There was also Lu Yaoyao.
Qi Ruoshui's expression changed drastically. "Lu Yaoyao healed you! How did she have such an ability? Lu Yaoyao is definitely not human. She must have some unspeakable secret. "
Murong Ke said coldly. "Qi Ruoshui, you refuse to admit that you're not as good as others, so you only know how to slander others?"
"Whether I'm slandering her or not, Lu Yaoyao knows it herself. Murong Ke, you know it too. You should be a dead person. It's impossible for you to still be alive. How did you survive?" Qi Ruoshui asked. "What about the Gu Insect in your body?"
Song Jiong was annoyed listening from the side. "Our Pavilion Master's Gu Insect was forced out long ago. Do you think an old woman like you can do anything about it?"
Force it out? Her Gu Insect was not something that could be forced out. Qi Ruoshui looked at Murong Ke sharply. "Murong Ke, I don't believe that you don't have Gu Insect in your body. I don't believe …"
"Qi Ruoshui, what do you think you'll face next?" Murong Ke asked indifferently. He had never doubted Yao Yao's medical skills. When he was in Dongqing, he had already seen her ability to bring the dead back to life. As for what Qi Ruoshui said, it was just another method to deal with Yao Yao.
This woman would only bring harm to others if she lived in this world.
"At most, I'll die. I've never been afraid of death." Qi Ruoshui sneered. "Kill me if you have the ability."
"Kill you?" Murong Ke raised his eyebrows and smiled. "Wouldn't that be too easy for you?"
Qi Ruoshui said, "Murong Ke, you're such a failure. You even risked your life to save Lu Yaoyao. In the end, how did she treat you? Mo Rongzhan came to find her. How could she still remember you, a person who risked his life for her? Was it worth it? "
"In my opinion, it was quite worth it." Murong Ke smiled. "As for you, now that you've suffered a crushing defeat, I wonder if you regret it?"
"I regret it. I should have killed you and Lu Yaoyao earlier." Qi Ruoshui regretted not killing Lu Yaoyao first.
Murong Ke looked her up and down. "Although you are wicked beyond redemption, I feel that even if I want to execute you, I should think of a way to make you suffer. Looking at you now, you don't seem to be afraid of death at all."
"Kill me if you can." Qi Ruoshui sneered.
"No, I think there's someone more suitable than me to decide your life and death." Murong Ke said with a smile.
Qi Ruoshui frowned slightly. "Who?"
"Huangfu Chen." Murong Ke said. He turned around and ordered the secret guard who was guarding Qi Ruoshui outside the door. "I see that the Witch King is in good spirits. It seems that she's been living too comfortably. For such a sinner, in order to prevent her from escaping, it's better not to eat too much."
"Yes, Sixth Marquis."
Murong Ke looked at Qi Ruoshui with a faint smile and turned to leave the woodshed.
Song Jiong hurriedly followed and asked Murong Ke's back, "Pavilion Master, why didn't you kill Qi Ruoshui?"
"Compared to death, there's a way to make him suffer more," Murong Ke said indifferently.
"What way?" Song Jiong asked.
Murong Ke stopped. He knew that Qi Ruoshui could hear their conversation outside the door. "Only Huangfu Chen knows."
Qi Ruoshui's face instantly turned pale when she heard this.
That's right! Huangfu Chen indeed knew a way to make her more afraid than death. She didn't want to be brought back to Ox Village. She would rather die than go back.
"Murong Ke, you coward. Kill me if you dare!" Qi Ruoshui shouted.
"Pavilion Master, she's really afraid …" Song Jiong laughed softly.
