C9 Another Soul

It was an ancient book covered in dust, lying in a corner, apparently long forgotten.

If Rann Shuang had not accidentally revealed it when she flipped the bottle, she would not have seen the light of day in a few decades.

However, such an inconspicuous appearance seemed to contain a huge amount of energy that attracted Rann Shuang, making her almost unable to move her feet away.

She had always liked to hunt for strange things, so she did not hesitate to bow and pick it up.

After blowing away the dust on it, a strong sense of age hit her face. She picked up a thin paper page and opened it. It was filled with densely-packed small pieces of paper, and beside them was a pill furnace as well as a drawing of the human body's meridians.

- - It was actually a book that talked about pill refinement and the circulation of meridians? Could it be some sort of secret manual?

Rann Shuang thought of this and could not help but curl her lips and laugh lightly. How can there be such a good thing in the world?

That paper was too fragile and she did not dare to flip it again. She understood that this place was not suitable to stay for long so she simply stuffed it into her lapels and conveniently grabbed a handful of incense. Only then did she consider the situation and return from another path.

In the sky, qi Xing had already tilted to the west, and Yin Shi's air was wet.

Rann Shuang walked quietly on the roof. When she passed a room, she heard some whispering sound from inside.

At this time, there was still someone who had not slept yet?

She was a little surprised. She looked around and her face gradually became cold.

Wasn't this the School of the Emperor Star that Consort Hui lived in!? However, it was late at night and when she looked down, she almost did not recognize it.

She did not think that they would meet again so soon. Rann Shuang clenched her fists and steadied her mind. She crawled on the roof and quietly lifted a corner of the tile to look through the gap.

The interior of the house was luxurious. The lamp was like a bean and it was obvious that someone had deliberately hidden it.

Consort Hui was leaning on the small bed under the beam of the house and opposite her sat a black clothed person. His back was straight and it was obvious that he was a martial arts practitioner. It looked like he was a man. But his back was facing Rann Shuang. So his face could not be seen clearly.

"A trash and a slut actually escaped from them!"

Consort Hui drank a mouthful of tea and suppressed her anger to lower her voice, but she could still hear the hatred that could not be concealed, "If there is a delay, there will be more dreams. Three days, I will give you three days to finish off that little hoof!"

The black clothed person did not speak and only faintly nodded his head, not knowing if he was listening seriously.

Rann Shuang who was on the roof heard it very clearly. She pursed her lips and her eyes shot out a gloomy cold light as she grabbed Consort Hui without moving.

Of course she knew who Consort Hui was referring to with her 'little hoof'!

This woman challenged her limits again and again and Rann Shuang was already too lazy to deal with her. In just an instant, she made a decision. She might as well assassinate Consort Hui today and get rid of her previous shame and snatch back the antidote!

She touched the incense in her arms and at this moment, a voice suddenly popped up in her head.

"I can't kill her! The Rann family has hundreds of lives in her hands. You can't waste the Rann family's life!"

A very urgent female voice made Rann Shuang completely stunned. - - How could there be such a clear and distinct consciousness? Could it be that the original owner of this body has not left yet?

But she quickly denied this speculation, because she couldn't feel the existence of another soul at all.

It was probably the obsession left behind by the original owner in her consciousness. Rann Shuang lightly sneered. She had never met the Rann family before, so why would she care about the survival of the Rann family?

With this thought, the killing intent on Rann Shuang's body spread out once again, and she removed the tiles even more, preparing to release the incense.

Everything went smoothly. However, the moment she lit the sedative and reached into the hole, her footsteps could not help but stagger!

Rann Shuang was shocked. This was completely her subconscious trying to stop her!

With a bang, the tiles closed. The incense fell from the roof beam and onto the floor inside the room.

"Who?!" This soft sound immediately attracted the attention of the two people in the room. Consort Hui looked up at the roof and asked sternly. Then she hid the man in black and shouted, "Someone is coming! There is an assassin! Catch the assassin!!"

Very quickly, the surrounding lights were lit up. Hearing the sound, the royal guards rushed over at the fastest speed!

Rann Shuang secretly cursed in her heart that the original owner was not a bad person. Her feet were already running on the roof like the wind.

Her footsteps were very light but her speed was fast. It was just that the Royal Guards seemed to be well-prepared to defend the assassins. They had already set up an inescapable net. When she got close, they raised their bows and shot at her!

She was surrounded!

After changing directions a few times, Rann Shuang finally realized this problem. Beads of sweat trickled down the tip of her nose.

If she was caught this time, there would only be death... Xiao Chenshun was still sick, so naturally he would not come to save her. He could only rely on himself. It was just that this iron wall formed by soldiers, even if she had wings, she wouldn't be able to fly!

"Rogue, surrender now!"

A row of shining arrows were aimed at them. The commander of the Royal Guards shouted, "Shoot!"

Swoosh! Swoosh!

She barely managed to dodge a few arrows, but she still could not. Rann Shuang's heart turned cold and she slowly closed her eyes.

"Stupid guy." The cold and low male voice was mixed with helplessness and slight indulgence.

Suddenly, his waist tightened and a cold wind pounced on him! Rann Shuang opened her eyes in disbelief and found that she was already several feet high in the sky! Looking back, it turned out that they had already gotten out of the tight encirclement and came out from a small space in the sky!

The wind whistled, but the chest behind her was wide and warm. It steadily brought her out of the city.

This... was the legendary Light-body Technique? And this voice...

Rann Shuang turned her head and saw that the man was wearing a pure black night robe and his face was covered and his hair was tied. Only his eyes were shining brightly. He looked at her like the stars in the sky, neither happy nor angry.

She immediately felt guilty, "You... Aren't you still sick?"
