C179 The Late Killing Intent

"Hey, I said, doesn't food need to be tested?"

In the room, Xiao Yue looked at Guxing, who was eating heartily at the table, and asked helplessly.

"Ms Yue, you are looking down on the bearing of a king. "

Guxing struggled to swallow the beef sauce in his mouth and licked his lips in dissatisfaction. He glanced at Xiaoyue and said, "For a commander who has been on the battlefield for many years and has never been defeated, poisoning is a despicable act. Is it possible to make him give up his usual iron-blooded methods and use such despicable actions?"

"Not to mention that he is a soldier, will the pride of a soldier allow him to do so? As the king of a country, he still has some backbone. Compared to that, I would rather believe that he would choose to send someone to assassinate me. "

As he spoke, Guxing picked up the wine in the cup and drank it all in one gulp. The unique spicy taste of the royal wine instantly bloomed on the tip of his tongue. The carefree feeling that arose in his heart could not help but make him exclaim in satisfaction.

"Hiss ~ Good wine!"

"Then you can still eat it?"

Hearing this, Xiao Yue was so angry that she couldn't help but glare at him. However, seeing his calm expression, which didn't seem like he was pretending at all, and his composure that didn't change even after Mount Tai collapsed, Xiao Yue secretly admired his courage.

"This fool, let's not talk about anything else, just his bearing alone is enough to carry the words' young hero '. Even if his temper is a little too stubborn, don't even think about it. At this kind of crucial moment, how can I allow you to force yourself? "

Xiao Yue worriedly looked at the gradually darkening sky outside the curtain. Knowing that it was useless to persuade him, she could only angrily say in her heart.

Time passed bit by bit, and the sky gradually darkened. The Imperial Palace, which was shrouded by the night sky, was silent and fake. Similarly, Guxing's calmness was terrifying.

He drank up all the hard liquor in the jar, and then he collapsed on the bed drunk. He even started to snore in satisfaction.

Hearing the snores and then looking at Guxing who was drunk and unconscious on the bed, Xiao Yue had no choice but to hide by the side as a guard. Cann Yue's sword, which was cold and restrained, quietly stood in front of the bed. Although it had not been unsheathed, the cold sword intent had already been released and revealed killing intent three feet away.

Compared to the tense atmosphere in the room, the Imperial City outside the room was even quieter to the extreme. Tonight, there was not even the sound of birds, but in the extreme north direction. Under the cold moonlight, a group of uninvited guests were relying on their clever movement techniques to continuously approach. These people were all dressed in black and had their faces covered, their figures different. The only similarity was that the killing intent that could not be concealed, everyone moved together. It caused the surrounding air to almost solidify.

"Three to kill, five to kill, what do you think, sir?"

In the northernmost direction, a man dressed in fine clothes was standing in the great hall, looking at the starry sky in a daze. Behind him stood a stooped old man.

"It's more than enough to deal with ordinary people, but we can't be careless against him. "

The old man was already very old. This could be seen from his white hair, as well as his white eyebrows and beard. What was strange was that his face was exceptionally young. It was as smooth and red as a child's. His long eyelashes flickered with wisdom, but his eyes were indescribably strange. This person actually did not have pupils. . .

"But this is already the greatest amount of power that can be sent out. "

The man paused and said, "Try not to alert the enemy and try to cover up. "

The old man thought for a while: "Even so, you must not let your guard down. After all, this child is not an ordinary person, but Son of Misfortune! "

The man turned around when he heard this, and a trace of hesitation flashed across his resolute face. If Guxing was here, he would definitely be able to recognize that this person was the current emperor of Great Chu, Chu Rouer's Royal Father, Chu Feng. He unconsciously clenched his fists, then sighed deeply and said, "Does he have to die?"

The old man blinked his pupils and said in a deep voice, "When Gu Sha comes out, the world will be thrown into chaos, and all living beings will be killed. The children and the people are first, and the country is later. Our emperor should prioritize the overall situation. "

"But what if he isn't? Wouldn't we kill the wrong people?"

Chu Feng didn't seem to want to kill Guxing, and he was still trying to excuse him.

The old man shook his head and denied it. "Since Son of Misfortune was born, he said. The stars in the sky have been circulating in reverse, the old man said, shaking his head. The stars in the sky have been circulating in reverse, causing disasters among the people. The heavenly secrets are unpredictable. In order to determine this kid's identity, the old man said. The old official once used the remaining lifespan as the price to make a deduction in three days. According to the divination, the cold was hidden in the north every day. The Unmatched Shadow. The heavenly stones had fallen, and the world was ruined. According to the divination, The first three lines of the poem are: Night, Lonely, and Star. From this, it means that this person is the person we are looking for. "

"Especially after this old official hid by the side and witnessed this child leave with his own eyes. That figure that I barely managed to see while muddle-headed in my dreams truly resembles this child. This old official is even more certain from this!"

After saying so much and seeing that Chu Feng still had a troubled expression, the old man's expression became serious again. "With righteousness in front of us, we would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. Not to mention anything else, just this little suspicion is enough for us to make a move a hundred times, a thousand times. Everything is for the sake of the common people of the world. There is no need for our emperor to feel guilty!"

Chu Feng muttered to himself, "Righteousness? How can I not know? He was just a little worried about that girl. I wonder if she'll blame me? "

"His Majesty is worried about Her Highness?"

When Chu Rouer was mentioned, a rare gentle expression appeared on the old man's cold face. Immediately, he consoled, "Your highness is still young. When she grows up, this old official believes that she will also understand what your majesty has done today. "

"I hope so. "

Chu Feng sighed again and waved his hand, "It is late at night. You are not feeling well. You should rest early. I will make arrangements for the rest. You don't have to worry about it. "

"In that case, this old official will take his leave. "

Before leaving, the old man gave Chu Feng a deep look and turned to leave.

In an instant, there was only Chu Feng left in the huge palace. After a sigh, there was no one left.

At this moment, the group of men in black had all stood still outside Guxing's room. The cold blade of the sword was shining with coldness, and their killing intent could almost be felt through the doors and windows.

"Hmph, they are finally here!"

Xiao Yue stood in the corner and snorted coldly. She was about to grab Cann Yue from afar but was stopped by another pair of hands. Only then did she realize that Guxing had woken up and was looking at her with a smile that was not a smile.

"You are awake?"

For some reason, seeing his smile, Xiao Yue's tensed heart suddenly relaxed.

"Heh, such heavy killing intent, if I don't wake up, wouldn't I be smothered to death by them?"

Carrying Cann Yue's hand and grasping a few circles, Guxing looked outside the door with a bit of ridicule. His eyes narrowed into a line as he said, "There are a total of eight people, huh, their strength isn't bad. But as assassins, they are not qualified. "
