Chapter Twenty-Three: The Best Assassin Is To Kill Everyone
Princess Cui Shuo of the Moon Art is the most talented child in the royal family over the years, and the only one who has the opportunity to hit the heavenly level! She is the sister of the first emperor Cui Xu, who is only half a year older than the old emperor! But compared to Cui Xu, who was barely promoted with all kinds of genius treasures, Cui Shuo's top-level product is real and genuine!
And she was ready to attack the Heavenly Ladder early, and worked hard for most of her life - and then, in vain.
This is also the fate of most earth-level cultivators, the opportunities and talents required to advance to the heavenly level are not available to everyone, some have talents but can't meet opportunities, some encounter opportunities but don't have the talents needed for promotion, and even more neither! Not everyone is a monster like Ruan Yin, not everyone can climb to the sky at the age of twenty and rank on the heavenly list!
Cui Shuo is a very typical kind of level with talent and no chance, her talent can be described as a rare genius in the royal family, but Rao is like this, but she is still trapped in chance and can't find a chance to be promoted! However, her talent is indeed a little unreasonable, she spent half her life understanding the fact that it was difficult for her to advance to the heavenly rank, so she spent another half of her life doing wantonly, eating, drinking and having fun, leaving behind the royal shackles, and becoming the freest royal family in this era! However, Rao is like this, she is still getting stronger step by step, constantly studying in the framework of the ground level, and finally came to the fifth position on the ground list. In the vast rivers and lakes, second only to those Heavenly Ranks and only four Earth Ranks!
However, no matter how famous this guy is and how strong his strength is, this Tianshan Tong grandma who can be Yan Yuan's grandmother (Cui Shuo: Get out!) None of them have any combat capabilities at this time! Her injuries are very serious, and she is okay with her daily life, but she is too reluctant to fight! Yan Yuan didn't think she would be able to protect him and herself as she boasted at all!
- To be honest, if she hadn't dragged her feet, she would have exceeded expectations!
To sum up, Yan Yuan didn't pay attention to this guy's boasting about his strength at all (because no matter how she blew herself, she couldn't make a move now), and she didn't pay attention to this guy's praise about her appearance (because no matter how beautiful she is, this guy can't compare to his fiancΓ©e - if he chooses her, why doesn't Yan Yuan choose the younger and more beautiful Cui Xiyao?!) If you choose to fight the princess of Song, Yan Yuan will even save the time for the strategy, and he will be able to have another wife directly! Ignoring this guy's optimistic assessment of the situation, he took care of himself and lived in Cui Shuo's resting room, saying that he wanted to protect her from assassination.
Cui Shuo didn't agree with this matter at first, she was a young girl (self-certified) eh! How can you share a room with a man? What kind of system is this?!
- Besides, this man is not handsome enough, not tall enough, not the number one he likes at all, and he can't be interested at all...... Really! Those love books are fake!
Of course, Yan Yuan didn't know that Cui Shuo was complaining about his height and face in his heart, if he knew, he would probably be angry on the spot!
The place they were staying in at this time was a small town not far from Youzhou City, which was not affected by the rebellion caused by Huo Bin, and it was quite quiet! On the same day, Yan Yuan escaped from Youzhou City with Cui Shuo on his back, ran all the way to this town, and took Princess Yueyi to find the local area
The doctor did professional treatment and finally brought it to the inn to rest! According to Yan Yuan's plan, Cui Shuo would be able to recover his basic combat strength in about three or four days, and it would not be a problem for the two of them to fight all the way back to the capital by then!
He also thought about contacting the six local gates, but the Su Nu Dao was known for its pervasive infiltration, and no one knew if they had extended their minions into the government mansions around Youzhou City! For the sake of insurance, he decided that it would be better not to contact.
As for Huo Bin, according to Cui Shuo, one of the culprits had been ambushed that day, and his head was cut off by Father-in-law Qi himself, and he was crushed into a piece of meat puree! It's a pity that this hero didn't gamble all the way to the end to make a contribution, and could only regrettably fall before the most difficult step threshold!
β¦β¦
It's night.
Cui Shuo fell asleep deeply, while Yan Yuan sat on the chair next to her bed, a little groggily dozing.
In the whole room, only the sound of Cui Shuo and Yan Yuan's slow breathing sounded, and a needle could be heard clearly when it fell quietly! And at this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared outside the window of the hotel room, and then two black-clothed people broke into the room at once, and two sharp sword lights pointed directly at Cui Shuo, who was lying on the bed!
Cui Shuo opened her eyes suddenly, she suddenly turned over and got up, as if she was going to make some movement, but in the next moment, the instant pain stopped her movements, making her have to stop for a moment! And it was this momentary stagnation that made it difficult for her to dodge the sharp two swords......
In the next moment, the two black-clothed men were suddenly pressed to the ground, and the sword light they swung out was also pressed down together, as if they had never appeared!
"Hey, where did you come from?" Yan Yuan frowned and scolded, then glanced at Cui Shuo again, and said angrily, "Do you know how weak you are now?" If you want to recover soon, just lie in bed honestly! β
"Ah......" Cui Shuo was a little weak-hearted by Yan Yuan's words, and he was a little embarrassed when he thought that he wanted to refuse Yan Yuan's vigil just now, but this Princess Yueyi was indeed an atypical princess, and she didn't have the elegance and reserve that a royal family should have, but was full of market atmosphere! She thought about it for a while and decided to change the subject so that Yan Yuan forgot about letting her go to bed - she had been lying in bed for a whole day! For her, who is lively by nature, this is really an ordeal, "Hey! Yan boy! How strong are you? I think you're pretty neat and tidy! β
"The middle grade of the ground level is almost high-grade."
Cui Shuo shut up and was silent: "......"
Cui Shuo wanted to speak and stopped: "...... How old are you this year? β
"Twenty-one? The difference between the top and bottom is less than one year old. Yan Yuan shrugged, "So I shouldn't call you grandma too much, right?" How is it, grandma, can you lie down in peace? β
"Twenty-one-year-old middle grade is about to get up?! Oh, my God! You're a wicked boy! Cui Shuo lay down unwillingly, and shouted in amazement: "I wasn't so terrifying back then!" Are you human? I thought you were at most a low-level grade, who knew you had such a high realm! Yan boy, you have a chance to impact the Heavenly Ladder! β
"Hey, I know." Yan Yuan pursed his lips, stretched out his hand to cover Cui Shuo, and then said angrily: "I don't count this at all."
What, there is a more wicked guy in this world than me! You're so rare and weird! β
"Impossible! How can there be such a wicked guy in this world! β
"My fiancΓ©e, Ruan Yin, is twenty years old, a Heavenly Rank cultivator."
Cui Shuo: "...... Am I falling behind, or is the world changing too fast? The Age of Mythology is coming again? Or is it that geniuses of your model can now be mass-produced? β
- Twenty-year-old Heavenly Rank Monk?!
Cui Shuo has never heard of this kind of demon in his life! Even those geniuses who are on the top of the heavenly list don't have this horror! Even Mr. Yat-sen didn't reach the Heavenly Ladder so early!
"Maybe it's a product of the times, when the great era comes, there must be some signs!" Yan Yuan suddenly said thoughtfully: "Speaking of which, my sister ...... Ahem! I mean, the drunken fairy of the Hunting Sect is only less than twenty-five years old, and now he is also a real cultivator, and there have indeed been more and more such geniuses over the years! β
Cui Shuo didn't care about Yan Yuan's slip of the tongue, but his face showed an expression of vicissitudes, and he sighed with an expression that was slapped to death by the back waves on the beach: "Is the drunken fairy so young?" Ouch...... I'm so old! β
"Well, you've finally admitted that you're an aunt, right?"
"Hey?!"
"Hey, hey! Just kidding. Yan Yuan laughed, then stood up, stretched out his hand and knocked Cui Shuo's head, "Good night." β
ββ¦β¦ Are you leaving? β
"Well, get some rest." Yan Yuan nodded, then patted the broken knife hanging from his waist, opened the window that had just been broken, and smiled, "I'm waiting for you to recover and protect me, Grandma Cui." β
Then he jumped out! Cui Shuo looked at his back as he left, and after a long time, he muttered softly: "Don't say that this kid is quite good at flirting with girls!" If it weren't for my grandmother, I'd be old...... Cough! Phew!! I'm not very old! β
β¦β¦
"Okay, I've had enough of my grandson's love, it's time to work." Yan Yuan yawned, then squinted his eyes at the few black-clothed people in front of him, "You guys are too unprofessional, aren't you?" The two who broke in directly and cut people before were stupid enough, and you were even more stupid than the two of them! The two of them at least know how to strike first, but what about you? What are you doing here? Meeting? I don't have the ability to hide my breath, why dare to stay here? β
"You are?" "You!" "Who are you?!"
"Me?" Yan Yuan shrugged, "I'm just a passing assassin, a very caring assassin. β
He pulled out the gem broken blade, held it in his hand, and aimed it at the men in black.
"Tell me, how many of you are assassins sent by Su Nu Dao? Or are they assassins sent by other powers? β
The people in black looked at each other, and then unanimously reached a consensus, and then pounced on Yan Yuan in unison, as if they were planning to fight this thin guy to the death! But Yan Yuan smiled, and then disappeared out of thin air in front of everyone's eyes, blending into the shadows.
Then, an ethereal voice sounded as if it was blending into the night wind, and the voice that couldn't judge the direction or distance said lightly: "I'll give you some insight into what an assassin is." β
