Chapter 281
Qin Shiyue was very close to Murong Jian and had already let down his guard. The black light from the mechanism came so quickly that Qin Shiyue didn't even have time to react before it pierced his heart. Qin Shiyue's right hand immediately covered his chest. A stream of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth as he fell limply to the ground.
"Little Yue!" Xu Jiaotong finally called out and ran to Qin Shiyue with tears streaming down her face.
The Xu Jiao King and the others were also furious. Just as they were about to step forward and surround Murong Jian, Murong Jian did not panic. He swung his right hand upwards and a whistling arrow shot into the sky. When it reached midair, it exploded with a "pa" sound. After that, a faint clamor could be heard from outside.
Xu Jiao asked, "Lord Murong, the Southern Sea Serpent Palace has treated you well. What do you mean by this?"
Murong Jian sneered, "Old Man Xu, your Southern Sea Serpent Palace has been in the Southern Sea for too long. Isn't it time to consider changing owners?
I'm soft-hearted so I'll help you share your responsibility. From now on, I'll take care of everything in the Serpent Palace. "
"You!"
Xu Jiao couldn't believe his ears. He looked at Murong Jian and couldn't help but laugh, "Little Murong, I respect you as the navy commander of this city and have treated you well. Although I haven't personally dealt with you, Jiaotong and the others have always been respectful to you. I didn't expect you to be so ambitious and have been plotting against my Serpent Palace for so long."
"Hahaha, your Southern Sea Serpent Palace is nothing but a nobody in the Jianghu. In the future, you'll be recruited by the government and have a bright future. It's better than riding on the Tenryū Sect's boat.
Moreover, after you've submitted to the government, I'll take back the Southern Sea Serpent Palace's name. It's better than being a serpent under the Tenryū Sect! "
Xu Jiao didn't let it go and said, "The government and the Jianghu have always minded their own business. Everything in the Jianghu is decided by the people of the Jianghu. You're just a small commander and you dare to say such big words? Aren't you afraid of biting your tongue?
Little Murong, if you know what's good for you, let go now. You go your way and I'll go mine. I won't say anything about you in front of General Lu. What do you think? "
"Hahaha, do you think I'm a three-year-old?
Wait until I take you all down, then what's done is done. What can General Lu say?
I'll first offer the wealth of the South Sea Dragon Palace. In the future, the income of the South Sea will be increased by 85%. Do you think he will still remember your friendship? "
"You want to take us down?
Haha, do you think you're Situ Yueming? "The Xu Jiao King found it funny.
Before the Xu Jiao King could finish his words, Murong Jian's figure flashed, leaping towards Qin Shiyue. When Qin Shiyue collapsed on the ground, Xu Jiaotong was the first to rush over, followed by Ying Fei, whose face was filled with grief and indignation. At this time, seeing Murong Jian rushing over, Ying Fei pulled out his sword and blocked in front of him, thrusting his sword towards Murong Jian.
In Ying Fei's mind, his sword would definitely force Murong Jian to retreat. Unfortunately, reality always exceeded his imagination. Murong Jian's figure spun and dodged to the side. He took out a dagger from his bosom and casually flicked it. It was precisely Ying Fei's wrist. Ying Fei's heart jumped. How was this the clumsy and ugly man he saw at the city gate? He quickly retracted his hand and drew a sword flower with his sword, guarding an opening. However, Murong Jian didn't even bother with him. He flashed past him and moved to Xu Jiaotong's side. Xu Jiaotong was facing Qin Shiyue who was lying on the ground. Why would she care about anything else?
Murong Jian reached out and grabbed Xu Jiaotong. The dagger was pressed against her throat. He turned around to face the crowd and said with a smile, "Naturally, I don't need to take you all down. I only need to follow Miss Jiaotong and wait for my subordinates to take over the manor. What do you all think?"
While he was speaking, Xu Jiaotong struggled forward and bumped into the dagger in his hand. Murong Jian was shocked. He quickly exerted strength in his hand and firmly held Xu Jiaotong in his hand so that she couldn't move.
Then, he looked at the crowd whose faces had changed and said, "Old Man Xu, look at you all. This commander originally wanted to take the soft path and start with Miss Jiaotong. First, I will let you enjoy being a father-in-law. However, this Xu Jiaotong didn't fall for this young master's trick and didn't give this commander a chance.
Hehe, if it wasn't for the Righteous Alliance's Situ Yueming, I wouldn't have known that Qin Shiyue had also come to Jingyue City. I originally wanted to use the opportunity when Situ Yueming got rid of Qin Shiyue to persuade you with a betrothal gift. However, I never thought that my flawless plan would be ruined by a random person. However, fortunately, I still had a backup plan. Father-in-law didn't want to accept the betrothal gift, so I could only let Qin Shiyue accept it.
Hehe, you think I don't know that he is Qin Shiyue? You still want to act like an elder in front of me. If I don't kill him, who will?
He still wants to snatch a beauty from me. He must be tired of living.
Alright, Father-in-law, this commander won't talk too much with you. Miss Jiaotong, come with me first. After we consummate our marriage, we will return to pay our respects to your family. "
After speaking, he hugged Xu Jiaotong and was about to walk out. How could the crowd be willing to comply? They all pulled out their weapons and ran forward. Murong Jian used a dagger to point at Xu Jiaotong's throat and said, "All of you stop. If you take half a step forward, I will make my move and slit Jiaotong's throat."
Seeing this, the crowd didn't dare to go forward. Xu Jiaotong struggled with all her strength to get closer to the dagger. However, Murong Jian was pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. Only now did he reveal his true strength. How could Xu Jiaotong struggle?
Zhang Xiaohua was also standing behind the crowd. She was considering whether or not to make a move to save Xu Jiaotong.
At this time, a gentle voice sounded from behind her, "I have long since found you an eyesore. Murong, Situ, Huangpu, Shangguan, I hate these compound surnames the most. Do you think you are acting in a garden?"
Murong Jian was shocked. This voice was very familiar. Could it be?
He didn't dare to imagine. He quickly turned around. What entered his eyes was a smiling face with a head full of white hair and a sword light that slashed horizontally towards him. This was also his last impression in this world. Immediately, his big head flew into the sky along with the sword light. Blood splashed all over Xu Jiaotong's body. When Jiaotong heard this unforgettable voice, she was already in a daze. How could she care about this? She flew into Qin Shiyue's arms. Her blood also stained Qin Shiyue's body.
Qin Shiyue smiled and stroked Xu Jiaotong's black hair.
After a while, Xu Jiaotong understood what was going on. She grumbled coquettishly and pushed him away. She moved to the side with a shy expression on her face. Ying Fei was the closest to her. He also moved closer and asked with concern, "Sir, what's wrong?"
Qin Shiyue looked at Ying Fei, then looked at the Xu Jiao King and the others who were also filled with confusion. She opened her left hand. In her hand was a short arrow. There was no trace of blood on the arrow. Qin Shiyue then used her hand to pull out a hole in her clothes. She smiled and said, "I have frightened everyone. When I went out, my master gave me a treasure to protect my heart. I originally thought that my master was being too careful. I didn't expect that I would use it here.
This Murong Jian is really a bastard. He actually acted so well. I didn't expect him to have such skills. Moreover, he has such big ambitions. I really didn't expect him to have such great skills. "
The Xu Jiao King smiled and said, "Lord Qin is wise and resourceful. You have really opened my eyes. However, this Murong Jian's tricks are like child's play in front of Lord Qin. Lord Qin easily resolved it and even managed to get so many secrets out of him. This old man and the others are full of admiration."
Then, he listened to the sounds outside and said, "However, this guy also has some influence in Jingyue City. The people outside the villa must be his subordinates who are attacking. Lord, this old man's villa is only a temporary residence in Jingyue City. We are also familiar with the government's forces. We don't have much defensive power. After attacking for a while, we must have reached our limit. Although we are not afraid of the soldiers, we do not fight with the officials. Moreover, they are using the government's name and have other plans.
Moreover, we killed Murong Jian. It will be difficult to explain to General Lu. The guards of Jingyue City won't let us go. In this old man's opinion, Lord Qin, why don't we hide for a while and talk to General Lu after these things have calmed down? What do you think? "
Qin Shiyue said apologetically, "Xu Jiao King, I acted quickly and killed Murong Jian. It seems that I have provoked a troublesome matter. The matters here have always been managed by the Xu Jiao King. Naturally, I will listen to the Xu Jiao King. We will do as you say."
The Xu Jiao King said, "It's not that we are afraid of the government. Murong Jian has been killed. Our Dragon God Sect has never been afraid of anyone.
It's just that we are in their territory. It's difficult for two fists to fight against four legs. A wise man knows better than to fight when the odds are against him. Let's leave the city first. "
Qin Shiyue smiled and said, "We will follow the Xu Jiao King's arrangement."
When the Xu Jiao King heard this, he turned around and said, "Everyone, let's go. Follow this old man out of Jingyue City. Let's go to the South Sea and have some fun."
The other two seas and seven waters laughed and said, "Let's go. We all live on the water. We don't feel at ease on the ground. It's better to go back to the water."
After that, they followed the Xu Jiao King to the back of the hall.
When everyone moved, Zhang Xiaohua was revealed behind them. When Qin Shiyue saw this, he smiled and said, "Ren Xiaoyao, thank you for saving my life. I will not forget it. However, you still have the cauldron, so I don't dare to make the decision to let you go. Follow me back to the Dragon God Sect. I will report everything to the Sect Leader and ask my master to put in a good word for you. As long as you tell the truth, I guarantee that the Sect Leader will not make things difficult for you.
As long as your sect can hand over the cauldron, or you can just tell me your sect, the Sect Leader will naturally let you go. What do you think? "
Zhang Xiaohua laughed in his heart. The cauldron is in my arms. What do you want me to say?
I can't take it out. It's really difficult for me. "
In fact, ever since Zhang Xiaohua discovered the wonderful use of Divine Sense in martial arts, he was no longer afraid of Qin Shiyue. He was confident and capable of escaping from Qin Shiyue's pursuit and even winning. However, looking at the current situation, there must be a lot of navy outside. He would not be stupid enough to leave Qin Shiyue's protection and make trouble for those soldiers.
Therefore, he said with a smile, "Since Lord Qin said so, I will follow you. Please put in a good word for me in front of your Sect Leader in the future."
