Jiang Liechen smiled and said, "Very good, our guest has arrived. I knew that he would be anxious, but I didn't expect it to be so fast. The effect of your blood letter is indeed extraordinary. Let's see how he will save you and how he will lose his life in the end. His stiff corpse will fall in front of you and his blood will splatter on your clothes, blooming into the most beautiful flower of blood, washing away all the filth. As for the Broken Love Sword, don't think I will forget it. He should thank me for seeing such a shocking scene before his death. "
Nangong Xue cried out, "Shixiong … Shixiong … Can you hear me? Don't come in, don't worry about me, run! Run away! "
Jiang Liechen said, "It's no use, I will let you scream as much as you want. Unfortunately, even if you scream yourself hoarse, you won't be able to call Li Yijie back to life." He lifted his hand to seal her acupoints and turned around to leave. As he hurried through the courtyard, he couldn't help but feel excited when he thought about how his long-awaited plan had finally come to fruition.
Shangguan Yaohua finally arrived at this place. As he turned around a pavilion, his eyes met Jiang Liechen's and both of them were startled.
Jiang Liechen was the first to regain his composure. He leaned against the pavilion pillar and smiled, "How could it be you? My humble abode is simple and crude, how could I trouble the Little Prince? It's my honor. " I wonder if it was your father's order, or your own idea? "Shangguan Yaohua quickly calmed down and said," Cut the crap, this has nothing to do with you! Just tell me, where is Xueer? Let her go! "
Jiang Liechen ignored him and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Have all the people in the Wulin died? Li Yijie is hiding behind the scenes like a coward, but he wants you to be his pawn. Are you willing to be used by him? The soldiers who came with you are hiding nearby, aren't they? Don't think I don't know about your little tricks. "
The Shangguan Yaohua sneered, "What do you think those people can do? It's precisely because this prince knows that to you, killing a few people won't take any effort at all. You don't want them to die for nothing, so you might as well hide in the back and watch. "
Jiang Liechen said, "He is indeed a soldier who loves nurses. Cheng Wangye's reputation is indeed well-deserved. For your sake, I can spare those peddlers and pawns. How did you manage to get yourself into such a sorry state? "
The Shangguan Yaohua did not need him to remind him. He knew that his clothes were torn and his body was covered with bruises. He said indifferently, "That's enough. In order to keep my appointment with her, I was beaten up by my adoptive father and almost lost my life. So what? Laugh at me all you like. Hey, every injustice has its perpetrator and every debt has its debtor. If you want to avenge the Cruel Fiend Star, why don't you just go and find Li Yijie? Taking it out on his fiancée and bullying a defenseless girl like this, what kind of future did he have? Don't you feel embarrassed? Tell me, where is she? "
Jiang Liechen said, "What do I have to be embarrassed about? The two of them are both sinners. Only by using each other's blood can we wash away this sin. For this reason, I won't be lenient on anyone's behalf. By the way, since you hate listening to me, why are you still asking me for information? Isn't that self-contradictory? "
The Shangguan Yaohua was furious. He said, "You damned thing, you shameless good-for-nothing! You can only bring pain to others! Just because of your laughable ambition, so what if you obtain the world's hegemony? I simply look down on you! "
Jiang Liechen sighed and turned his gaze away as if nothing had happened. He placed one hand on the Shangguan Yaohua's shoulder and slowly walked to his side. He stood behind him and placed both hands on both of his shoulders. He gently placed his chin on them and said in a low voice, "Can't you treat me a little better? In my opinion, you're even more arrogant than An Yesun. He was disrespectful to me at every turn and put on airs. Now you're doing the same. Like teacher, like disciple … "
Shangguan Yaohua felt strange and his hair stood on end. He raised his elbow and said angrily, "You filthy corpse, don't touch me. Get lost!" He raised his hand and swung it a few times, fiercely brushing away Jiang Liechen's arm. He was full of disgust as he brushed the clothes on his shoulder, as if they had been stained with filth. Jiang Liechen casually adjusted his sleeves and said with a faint smile, "What, do you really hate me that much?"
Shangguan Yaohua was still angry. He suddenly turned his hand and unsheathed the sword at his waist. He moved as fast as lightning and aimed it at Jiang Liechen's neck. Their gazes collided in the air, creating a series of sparks.
Jiang Liechen did not seem to care about life or death, or perhaps he was confident that his opponent would not be able to harm him. His life was on the line, but he did not care. He glanced at the sword and said with a faint smile, "Oh? This is the Afterimage Sword? I'm honored that you have it with you. "
Shangguan Yaohua knew that it would be difficult to succeed, but he did not expect Jiang Liechen to have such an attitude. If he was not toying with him like a monkey, then what was he? He said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense! Since you know that this is the Afterimage Sword, you should know its effects. Quickly tell me Xueer's whereabouts, or I'll kill you! "At the same time, he increased the force of his hand and the sword moved a few inches closer.
Jiang Liechen raised his head slightly, increasing his arrogance. He said indifferently, "If you beg me, maybe I'll consider it. But I advise you to think carefully before you act. If you kill me now, I'm afraid you won't be able to see her for the rest of your life. "Shangguan Yaohua shouted," Don't try to fool me! You think I don't know? Xueer is in one of the rooms in this mansion, right? As long as I kill you, I'll be able to leave this place unimpeded. Who can stop me from taking her away? "
Jiang Liechen said, "The world is full of changes. Nothing is absolute. Of course it's possible that she's in this mansion, but what if she's not? If you want to kill me, you can do it at any time. But right now I'm the only one who knows her whereabouts. How are you going to shoulder this responsibility? If you fail at the last hurdle, how are you going to explain it to your companions? Do you dare to make this bet with me with a fifty percent chance of success? "
Shangguan Yaohua's fingers holding the sword trembled slightly, a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead. In that instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but he was hesitant and unable to make a decision. From his expression, he looked relaxed and at ease, not a single clue could be seen. Whether or not he could rescue Nangong Xue, he had already investigated all the way to this point. In this final move, he was unwilling to give up just like that.
But he was faced with two difficult choices. The Afterimage Sword was in his hand. If he moved it slightly, even if he could not kill him, he would at least be able to severely injure him. But if he had other plans and hid Nangong Xue in a secret place, killing him would cut off all clues. Presumably, it was because Jiang Liechen was certain of his weakness and could not make up his mind in this desperate situation that he dared to test him. He was so angry that the roots of his teeth were itching. Several times he wanted to raise his sword and chop it down, but when things came to a head, his arms weighed more than a thousand catties, making it difficult for him to raise them.
Shangguan Yaohua's hesitant attitude made Jiang Liechen even more pleased with himself. He laughed loudly and said, "Yao Hua, I didn't misjudge you. It's the same for everyone. As long as you can grasp his weakness, you can freely control him. The Afterimage Sword is an invincible treasured sword. With just a slight movement, it can make your enemy's blood splatter three feet. This kind of opportunity does not come by often. If you miss it once, perhaps there won't be a second time. That woman has no status and no status. What's wrong with letting her become the sacrifice to get rid of me? "
Shangguan Yaohua's hand was slightly stinging. The sword hilt was like a piece of burning coal, burning his fingertips and at the same time burning his entire body. He was almost unable to hold it. In the end, his reason was defeated by his emotions. He said word by word, "This time, you win. But remember, this is the only time you can use a bargaining chip to threaten me. The next time I want to kill you, I will definitely be the first to bear the brunt! "
He raised the sword hilt and moved it away from Jiang Liechen's neck inch by inch. He hesitated for a moment in midair. Suddenly, like a sudden clap of thunder, he fiercely chopped down with the sword. A piece of golden-yellow armor that was embroidered on Jiang Liechen's shoulder fell to the ground. The top of the cloth split open.
Shangguan Yaohua did not expect this attack to go as smoothly as he wished. Since he had succeeded in one move, his morale increased even more. He raised the sword hilt high and then went straight down. At this time, he did not pay attention to the movement of the sword. Like a saber or an axe, he chopped down three times on Jiang Liechen's shoulder.
Jiang Liechen frowned and fell half a step. He finally stabilized his body and did not lose his composure. Three arrows of blood shot out, and in the darkness of the night, they were startled by the bright red color. When the blood splashed down, it covered his long robe and dripped down to the ground. A puddle of blood formed on the ground. Half of his body was dripping with blood. It was scattered everywhere, as if it had been stained with blood. Jiang Liechen raised his hand to press on the wound on his shoulder. He gritted his teeth and said, "You … you brat … impudent …" At this time, his imposing manner was indeed not as imposing as before.
Shangguan Yaohua said, "Even if I am impudent, so what? To a devil like you, nothing is too much. Remember that this time, I am being merciful and sparing your life. The situation is under my control, not yours! I advise you to first bandage your wound. Don't think that you will bleed to death before I kill you. "He stabbed the Afterimage Sword deep into the ground. Without looking back, he turned around and walked away. Jiang Liechen staggered and leaned on the sword's hilt. With great difficulty, he held on to it with both hands. He said, "Thank you for your concern … this sword, you don't want it anymore?"
Shangguan Yaohua did not look back. He coldly said, "That belongs to you. It is beneath my dignity to take it." Jiang Liechen's face revealed a bitter smile. After a series of battles in his heart, he suddenly said, "Hold on. What if I say … what if I agree to let you see her? " Shangguan Yaohua's feet suddenly froze in place. He knew that Jiang Liechen was full of tricks and that this was most likely a trap, but he still could not resist. He said, "Fine! Then take me there right now! "
Jiang Liechen coldly laughed. "I can tell you that your guess just now was not wrong. She is indeed in a room a few steps away. Unfortunately, you did not dare to take the risk and missed the opportunity to kill me. How about it? Do you regret it now? It's a pity that time can't be reversed. "
Shangguan Yaohua's facial muscles twitched. He wanted to turn around and scold him, but he knew that Jiang Liechen was deliberately provoking him. The more obvious his emotions were, the more Jiang Liechen would like it. He forced a smile and said, "I already knew. Just treat it as me being lenient to you. If I want to kill you, I can do so at any time. There is no need to use your weapon. Alright, lead the way. "
Jiang Liechen's vision was faintly blurred. His wound was still bleeding profusely. The Afterimage Sword's wound went straight into his meridians. Even if it was not a vital point, it could still inflict a wound a hundred times worse than a normal dagger. He slowly said, "Tomorrow at this time, come back here and wait for me. Let me prepare first …" Shangguan Yaohua impatiently said, "Do you think I am an idiot? She gave you time so that you could take her and run away? Since I am here today, I will not leave until I see Xueer. "
Jiang Liechen sighed softly. As if he was angry with him, he said, "Wait for a moment … at least wait for me to bandage my wound first!" As he said that, he used the Afterimage Sword as a crutch and slowly walked away. In the past, he had always valued his power and prestige. He would never allow his image to be tarnished. Only in front of Shangguan Yaohua did he deliberately show weakness and put on airs.
Shangguan Yaohua stood still and stared at Jiang Liechen's back. He thought about how Jiang Liechen often treated him like a child, but he was actually a savage devil in the outside world. Shangguan Yaohua did not know whether to laugh or cry. He thought that it was because of An Yesun.
Nangong Xue was shocked to see Jiang Liechen return to his room. His black robe was stained with blood. He pressed one hand on his shoulder. Blood continuously seeped out between his fingers. Although she quickly noticed the Afterimage Sword in his hand, when she carefully examined him, she did not feel the slightest bit of murderous aura. He looked more like a patient who urgently needed to be treated. She was speechless.
As soon as Jiang Liechen looked up, he saw that she was staring at him. Obviously she was looking at his unusual wound. He humphed coldly and walked over to the bed to sit down. Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, he fell straight down. Nangong Xue could not help but feel even more surprised. She cupped her cheek and sized him up in detail.
