A hundred steps away, a gray-clothed, bony figure hiding behind a tree immediately became alert and wanted to leave. However, the guards of Prince Nanping's Mansion were even faster. They all flew out from their hiding spots and blocked Gray Mage Lurker's path of retreat.
The urn was ready and waiting for the turtle to enter.
Seeing this, Gray Mage Lurker clenched his teeth and raised the bow in his hand. Three sharp arrows were shot toward Xiahou Qing.
Xiahou Qing tilted his head and listened to the wind. He raised his folding fan and knocked down the three arrows with the slender ribs of the fan. Gray Mage Lurker quickly changed his target and raised three more arrows toward Ning Shu.
After three arrows, another three arrows flew toward Ning Shu. The arrows weaved into an inescapable net and flew toward Ning Shu. She was unable to resist at all. Ning Shu was exhausted from running for her life and was unable to dodge in time. Soon, her arm was grazed by an arrow.
As it turned out, this move of his was indeed effective. Seeing this, Heaven's Inquisition immediately led his men to protect Ning Shu. After diverting a portion of the firepower, Gray Mage Lurker immediately put away his bow and prepared to attack from the loophole.
Hearing that, Xiahou Qing slightly creased his brows. Holding the paper fan, he was about to stand up when Jiu Si respectfully said, "Lord, let me do it."
He took out a heavy blade from the guard beside him and politely nodded his head toward Gray Mage Lurker, "Please excuse me." Then, he raised the blade and ferociously slashed toward Gray Mage Lurker with lightning speed.
This was the first time Ning Shu had seen Jiu Si in action, which was completely different from his usual gentle and cold temperament. When he raised his saber, his posture was like that of a ferocious and hungry wolf. He would not let go of his prey once he had bitten it to death.
Ning Shu was greatly shocked. Only now did she understand why Hui Mo, Heaven's Inquisition, and She Yan, these three brats, were willing to obediently lower their heads and acknowledge Jiu Si as their boss. Good heavens, they were simply two different faces. Never offend him in the future.
When Tianwen saw Jiusi intervening, he immediately put away his sword and stood aside to watch the show. At the same time, he whispered to Ning Shu, "Among the four of us, although each of us has inherited some outstanding skills from His Highness, in fact, the one who learned the most is still Jiusi. This guy worships His Highness like a god. Not only did he learn strategy and martial arts, but he also delved into a particularly domineering saber technique to protect His Highness. This is his secret weapon, which is usually not used easily. Lady Ning, just you wait. In less than the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, you will have him. "
Reality proved that Heaven's Inquisition was not boasting.
Today, they had already set up an ambush ahead of time. On top of that, Gray Mage Lursk's arm was injured two days ago. No matter how good his qinggong was, he wouldn't be able to use it if he were to fall into a trap. Furthermore, he had encountered the Dark Jiu Si today.
After the time it takes for two incense sticks to burn, Gray Mage Lursk fell in front of Ning Shu and the others with several saber wounds all over his body. Jiusi put away his saber and said, "Excuse me." He kicked away the crossbow that could take someone's life from a hundred steps away. Then, he stepped forward and sealed Gray Mage Lursk's acupuncture point.
Ning Shu stepped forward with a smile on her face. She removed the cloth covering Gray Mage Lursk's face and looked at his pale and gloomy face. She raised her eyebrows and said, "If you didn't appear today, I might have to continue racking my brains to figure out your true identity. However, since you have appeared today, you have saved me a lot of trouble. Gray Mage Lursk, Xin Chen, I have wanted to see your true appearance for a long time. Perhaps I can call you by your second name — Xue Ran. "
Gray Mage Lursk's body stiffened when that name that had been dead for many years was mentioned again after more than twenty years. Then, as if he had received a great insult, he roared with a voice as hoarse as a vulture's, "Don't call me by that name! That trash Xue Ran had already died twenty years ago and turned into a pile of bones! He is already dead! "
Ning Shu said, "Then, the one who survived is the Gray Mage Lursk who betrayed the Third Prince's Residence for glory? Or is he the most trusted aide of the mastermind behind the Plum Blossom Kiss? No matter which one it is, I wonder what your Xue Family's loyal and courageous founding general would think when he saw his descendant in such a state. "
