An assassin?
A complicated look flashed past Ning Cheng's eyes. Coldly, he asked, "What's going on?"
"Reporting to Master, we discovered an assassin at Yan Ling Palace. It's just one person, and he's highly skilled in martial arts!" The guard reported truthfully.
Ning Cheng looked at Bai Yanqing and discovered that Bai Yanqing was also looking at him. He sneered, "Another one sent by Long Fei Ye to kidnap the princess, right? Why does he believe that the princess is with me? "
The word 'another' let Ning An know that it was purposely said for Bai Yanqing to hear.
After Ning Cheng brought the princess back, it was the first time an assassin had broken in. Moreover, whether or not the assassin was targeting the princess was still to be investigated.
Ning An hurriedly persuaded, "Clan Head, the princess is clearly not in our palace. Why don't you make an announcement to reveal the truth? What if Long Fei Ye released the news and slandered us? If the world doesn't know, they might really think that we've kidnapped the princess! "
Bai Yanqing smiled, "That's not right. Even if the princess is in the hands of the Ning family, it's still the Ning family who saved the princess. What about kidnapping? The Long Fei Ye can't slander the Ning family. "
Ning An smiled bitterly, "Uncle Bai, gossip is a fearful thing! The Long Fei Ye is very good at winning over people's hearts! If the world believes in the Long Fei Ye and we still haven't hung the Western Qin flag, the world will scold us for keeping the princess under house arrest and harboring evil intentions! "
Bai Yanqing smiled, "You're worrying too much. Why don't we hang the flag first? If the imperial seal is placed on the flag, it will definitely convince people. "
Ning Cheng immediately refused with a cold expression, "Hanging the flag and placing the seal is the authority of the imperial family. The Di family and the Feng family don't have this right! Uncle Bai, this Clan Head will pretend that I didn't hear your words. Please don't speak nonsense again! "
Bai Yanqing could not refute. If he did, it would be the greatest disrespect to the royal family of Western Qin. He sneered in his heart. Ning Cheng, this brat, would one day fall because of the word "blind loyalty".
Han Yunxi was hiding in the dark room, so she heard every word clearly.
She was right. Ning Cheng was not only a wolf, but a wolf as cunning as a fox!
He and Ning An were able to use the unexpected assassin incident to their advantage. After hearing what they said, Bai Yanqing would be even more convinced that the Western Qin princess was not in Ning Cheng's hands.
Making Bai Yanqing believe them was the first step in exposing Bai Yanqing's scheme!
After all, Ning Cheng was more anxious than anyone else to hang up the Western Qin military flag. Bai Yanqing would never have thought that Ning Cheng would be so calm on this matter.
This time, Ning Cheng was willing to let the child trap the wolf!
Just as Han Yunxi let out a sigh of relief, a terrified cry almost made her heart stop beating.
"Master, Master, the assassin is Xiao Qi from Medical City. He's coming to kill us!"
Gu!
Han Yunxi's first thought was to rush out and see Gu. She wanted to follow him and let him take her to see Long Fei Ye.
Her body reacted faster than her brain, and she had already rushed to the stone door.
However, Ning Cheng's words made her stop abruptly and calm down.
Ning Cheng said, "He came at the right time. This Clan Head will let him search however he wants! Otherwise, Medical City will misunderstand that our Di Clan is disrespectful to the princess! "
Ning Cheng, this brat who had acted rashly in front of her several times, was able to calmly deal with all the unexpected situations.
Han Yunxi silently leaned against the door and closed her eyes. She told herself, "Calm down!"
Once she went out, Bai Yanqing would definitely see through Ning Cheng's lie. Not only would all their previous efforts be in vain, but the consequences would also be very terrible.
Bai Yanqing had just said that Jun Yi Xie would bring back nearly a hundred thousand war horses. In other words, Bai Yanqing's forces were enough to drive straight down and destroy Ning Cheng and Long Fei Ye!
At this moment, whether it was the princess of Western Qin or Han Yunxi herself, she had to calm down.
As the princess of Western Qin, she had to protect Ning Cheng. As Han Yunxi, she had to protect Long Fei Ye.
Long Fei Ye and Ning Cheng were facing the same enemy, the Feng Clan!
Besides, if she rushed out like this, what would Ning Cheng think of her? Ning Cheng would definitely see through her selfishness. With Gu's strength, how could he fight against Ning Cheng's thousands of ambushes in the palace? She and Gu couldn't escape.
Han Yunxi was actually not calm at all. She wanted to see Long Fei Ye more than at this moment, but she gritted her teeth and endured.
If two people loved each other for a long time, how could they be together day and night?
However, Long Fei Ye, do you have feelings? Do you have feelings for each other?
Even Gu Qishao is here, so where are you, Long Feiye?
Han Yunxi closed her eyes. Her eyebrows were full of fatigue.
She had to feign civility with Ning Cheng. Not only did she not arouse his suspicion, but she also had to find a way to delay him from personally leading the army.
She had to rack her brains to come up with a plan to expose the Feng Clan's conspiracy while hiding the black-clothed assassin's Tianshan Swordsmanship.
She had to take a risk and think of a way to do something to Long Zun's servant to send out the question she was obsessed with.
How could she not be tired?
In this world, who could she really trust?
Gu Beiyue? When did the Shadow Clan's protection begin? Was it the first time he appeared in Tiankeng, or even earlier?
Gu Qishao? She had been so persistent in Medicine Ghost Valley, but hadn't she been fooled by Mute Granny in the end?
Even if she was tired, Han Yunxi still stood straight and did not fall.
Not for anything else, but because she was not only the princess of Western Qin, but also herself!
She wanted the truth, she wanted an explanation.
Only then could she make a choice that she would not regret!
Han Yunxi, hang in there!
Outside the secret chamber, before Gu could kill his way over, Ning Cheng personally went over. Ning An chased after him, deliberately ignoring Bai Yanqing and Bai Yuqiao. The master and disciple naturally followed.
As soon as Gu saw Ning Cheng, he stabbed at him with his sword. Ning Cheng also drew his sword to meet him.
"Hand over Han Yunxi, or I'll slaughter your entire palace!" Gu was furious and could not keep his cool.
"Han Yunxi is not in my hands!" Ning Cheng did not budge an inch. "If you want to slaughter my entire palace, you'll have to ask the sword in my hand first!"
Gu sneered but did not say anything. "Ning Jing, your younger sister admitted it herself. Han Yunxi was taken out of Medical City by you!"
Ning An was shocked. "What did you do to Jing 'er?"
Ning Cheng was also shocked. When he left, Ning Jing and Tang Li were still in a cold war. What happened between the two of them?
Gu directly ignored Ning An's question. He did not care about the relationship between Long Fei Ye and the Tang Sect, or the relationship between Ning Jing and Tang Li. He only wanted Han Yunxi.
A thorn seed shot out from the tip of his sword and fell at Ning Cheng's feet. Ning Cheng did not have time to escape and was instantly trapped by the wildly growing thorny vines.
Gu's loose red robe fluttered wantonly in the wind. The thorny vines danced in the air, baring their fangs and brandishing their claws.
"Hand over Han Yunxi, or else this old man promises to tear you to pieces!" Gu warned coldly. The hostility in his eyes was even more terrifying than when he faced Gu Yuntian.
Ning Cheng stood in place, not flustered at all. He was still as imposing as before. Cold as before, he said, "Gu, if you kill me, Long Fei Ye will laugh! Think about it. Before Long Fei Ye finds out about Han Yunxi's background, how can he keep her by his side? "
"I don't care! I only want Han Yunxi! "Gu said angrily.
"No! If you want to kill me, then do whatever you want! "Ning Cheng said Cold.
Up until now, Bai Yanqing's gaze had never left Ning Cheng.
"Uncle Bai, I'm afraid he really doesn't have her," Bai Yuqiao said in a low voice.
"Mm," Bai Yanqing responded in a low voice.
"Then who kidnapped her?" Bai Yuqiao asked again.
"That's strange. We can't be sure." Bai Yanqing said in a low voice.
Gu was a man of his words. Under his control, the thorny vines quickly bound Ning Cheng tightly. Ning An's heart ached when he saw this. He hurriedly ordered, "Someone, bring me the Pearflower Storm Needles!"
Ning Cheng spent a lot of effort to learn how to use the Pearflower Storm Needles. However, he couldn't bear to use it even once. It was because he wanted to save the Pearflower Storm Needles to kill Long Fei Ye personally on the battlefield.
"You're not allowed!" Ning Cheng said angrily.
"You'll die!" Ning An was really anxious now.
Ning Cheng laughed out loud. "Gu Qishao, think it over clearly! Even you want to be used by Long Fei Ye? "
No one knew what Gu was thinking. He looked at Ning Cheng coldly, almost going crazy.
At this moment, the guards escorted Mu Ling 'er over.
It turned out that after Mu Ling 'er entered the palace, she didn't manage to catch up with Gu. She could only search for him in the palace. With Mu Ling' er's mediocre skills, how could she not be discovered?
Ning An was overjoyed. Without hesitation, he pulled out the guard's sword and pointed it at Mu Ling 'er's heart. He angrily said, "Gu, let go of Ning Cheng. Otherwise, I'll kill her right now."
Mu Ling 'er originally wanted to say something, but when she heard this, she fell silent. She stared straight at Qi Brother, not saying a word.
Mu Ling 'er originally feared Long Fei Ye, but now, she hated Long Fei Ye!
In her opinion, Qi Brother was being used by Long Fei Ye! Long Fei Ye was guarding Medical City by himself, but with one sentence, he provoked Qi Brother and made him rush here day and night.
Why didn't Qi Brother listen to her advice?
Han Yunxi was the princess of Western Qin, which meant that she was Ning Cheng's master. How could she be in danger?
Why didn't Qi Brother figure out the truth of the matter first before making a decision?
Love could make people blind.
How could she not be blind? She had clearly lost Qi Brother, but she was stupid enough not to leave first. She was stupid enough to search all over the palace, hoping to help him find her.
Qi Gege, Ling 'er's life and death have finally fallen into your hands.
Ling 'er will wait.
She will wait until you want Ling 'er to live or die.
In the face of Ning An's threat, Gu didn't even look at her. All his attention was on Ning Cheng.
It wasn't that he was stupid to listen to Long Fei Ye.
In this world, Ning Cheng was the most likely person to expose Han Yunxi. He had taken the initiative to expose his identity. If Han Yunxi was treated politely by Ning Cheng, she would have come out to see him, right?
There were only two possibilities. Either Han Yunxi was really not here, or Han Yunxi was under house arrest. The Di Clan and the Nether Clan had ulterior motives!
Everyone assumed that Gu Qishao had lost his mind, but his heart was clearer than anyone else. He was testing Ning Cheng!
Blood flowed out of the thorny vines. It was Ning Cheng's blood. Ning An couldn't bear it anymore. "Gu, you'd better not regret this!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she stabbed Mu Ling 'er's abdomen with her sword.
Mu Linger was on the verge of tears from bravery. She ignored the sword awn and continued to look at her Qi gege with deep feelings …
