Chapter Ninety-Seven: Assassination
A gorgeous platinum palace with bright lights.
In the dim light, staggered figures surged, smiling and looking forward to it, and it was another glamorous encounter.
Mu Shi seemed to be out of place with it, leaning on the white jade railing on the edge of the open-air balcony and drinking a glass of fruit wine boringly, by the way, looking at the rare bright full moon tonight.
"The moon here is really exactly the same as the earth." Mu Shi saw that his neck was sore, so he lowered his head and drank the last sip of wine, wiped his mouth and muttered softly.
Beiye noticed Mu's loneliness, but he didn't say anything, after all, the little wild cat's mood is very rare, and he is still very interested in observing it for a while.
Mu Shi didn't know why she was suddenly sentimental, maybe the trouble had finally come to an end, making her unload her burden, but she became uncomfortable.
"The dew is white from tonight, and the moon is the hometown of Ming." For no reason, Mu Shi remembered the poems he had read before, read them softly, and couldn't help laughing, he was still not suitable for such a literary crepe.
"Good poetry!" A delicate voice came from behind, accompanied by crisp applause, Mu Shi was stunned, stood up straight and turned around, seeing that the person who came couldn't help but have a headache, he saluted and said, "See Her Royal Highness the Princess." β
"You're welcome." An Xian's face was a little red, I don't know if it was because of drinking fruit wine, she wore a very beautiful pink white palace dress tonight, her long black hair was coiled up by delicate jewelry, and she wore a princess crown that symbolized noble status, which was very dazzling.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Mu Shi straightened up and looked at An Xian with some doubts, "Your Highness is looking for me, is there anything wrong?" β
"You're a man!" An Xian was a little speechless, he came to him with condescension, how could he not feel it at all like a wood!
Seeing the princess's angry face, Mu Shi suddenly felt that her head was big, she was not a fool, she naturally felt the change in An Xian's attitude, but the problem was that she was a woman, and she would have to recover her female body sooner or later. If the princess knew about it, I was afraid that she would be beaten to death.
An Xian took a breath gently, suppressed his anger, looked at Mu Shi who looked up at the sky and refused to look at him sadly, and bit his lip, "I'm here to congratulate you on winning the first place." β
"Your Highness said that I laughed, I just touched the light of Si Li Gongzi." Mu Shi waved his hand and said modestly.
"It's not like that! I've been watching you in action in the Uncharted Realm! An Xian immediately retorted, and immediately realized that he was too excited, his little face was hot, and he lowered his head and stirred the handkerchief in his hand, "That..... I mean....... I know you've made it to the end on your own. β
"It's over......" Mu Shi shuddered, An Xian's posture as a child, it seems that she feels good.
"Ahem...... Doesn't Your Highness blame Mu Shi for hurting you? Mu Shi coughed lightly, relieving the increasingly awkward atmosphere.
"That's all in the past, and this princess hasn't been so careful!" An Xianliu raised her eyebrows and crossed her waist and said, "Am I such a person in my eyes?" β
"No, no, no!" Mu Shi hurriedly explained, she was good at fighting and making bad guys, and she was really powerless to deal with this kind of innocent little girl, Mu Shi even sweated a little on his forehead, "That...... I remembered that Si Li Gongzi came to me to discuss the matter of Tianchi! Excuse me! After speaking, Mu Shi didn't wait for An Xian to speak again, and hurriedly slipped away.
"Wait! You! ......." An Xian stretched out his hand, subconsciously wanting to stop Mu Shi, but he slowed down and watched Mu Shi disappear from his sight.
"Am I so unattractive!" An Xian stomped her feet and muttered to herself with some anger.
"An Xian, you are really here~" A soft voice sounded, making An Xian's face change, "Who?" β
A figure in a white dress walked out of the curtain by the windowsill, and looked at An Xian with a smile, "Don't be afraid, it's me~"
"Sister Xiaoxue!" An Xian was taken aback, "Why are you here?" Immediately, An Xian thought of something, and her little face burned again, "You, you won't hear everything, will you?!" β
Mu Xue nodded lightly and elongated her voice, "I remember someone said that Mu Shi would never have a good time in this lifeββ"
"Hey! I hate it! An Xian pounced on Mu Xue angrily, and her little pink fist gently hammered Mu Xue's shoulder, "Don't say it, you are not allowed to say it to anyone!" β
"Don't worry, I won't say it." Mu Xue smiled and hugged An Xian's small waist, bit An Xian's ear and said softly, "However, someone's road, I'm afraid it's difficult to walk~"
"I, I'm not in love with him anymore, I just think he's good now!" An Xian argued.
"Yes, yes. Do you want me to help? Mu Xue said temptingly.
"No, you don't! I believe in my own charisma! "An Xian has a head like this, proud like a white swan.
"Yes, yes, the people who want to marry our An Xian are all lined up at the gate of Yunqi City-"
"Nasty! I like Sister Xiaoxue! An Xian stretched out his hand to scratch the soft flesh on Mu Xue's waist, and the laughter like silver bells echoed on the balcony, and the two beautiful girls who were playing were a touch of beauty.
It's just that when An Xian couldn't see it, Mu Xue's soft smile faded, and a touch of viciousness and determination flashed in her beautiful phoenix eyes......
On the third watch of the month, dark clouds crept in, blocking the bright moon, and the dormant world fell into boundless darkness.
"I'm tired!" Mu Shi pushed open the gate of his yard and complained, "What kind of celebration banquet is it, it's like a blind date meeting!" "This kind of multi-person socialization is more tiring than playing ten games!
"You're good-looking, I've counted the number of people who secretly sent you Qiu Bo tonight, all of them are in double digits." Beiye appeared, leaning against the door with his arms crossed, a slight smile on his lips, and sighed, "The apprentice has grown up-"
"But I don't like to be gay!" Mu Shi glared at the northern night that was almost in the darkness with annoyance, and after saying viciously, he walked to the bedroom and pushed the door open to go in to rest.
"Be careful!" At the same time as Bei Ye reminded him, he had already come to Mu Shi's side, and with a wave of his wide sleeve robe, the unique elemental power of the demon clan instantly gushed out, and the originally soft sleeves became as hard as steel.
"Dangdangdangβ"
There was a clash of metal, and white spots appeared on the black sleeves. Beiye's dark red eyes narrowed, looked at the dark bedroom, and chuckled, "In your room, rats have come in." β
"I've only been gone for a few days and someone can't wait?" Mu Shi was a little angry, and she was exhausted from this nobleman's celebration, and now she just wanted to sleep well and regain her spirits.
A soft sound sounded, and then a dark shadow broke through the window to escape.
"Run there!" Mu Shi snorted coldly, and the power of the elements gushed out without reservation, instantly mobilizing a large number of wind elements. The tiny green wind instantly rushed towards the black shadow and tied it up.
"Huh? Intermediate magic made her use it in a fit of rage. Bei Ye raised his eyebrows, although this Wind Lock is the most basic kind of intermediate magic, but with Mu Shi's current strength, it is still very difficult to release it instantly.
"Bang." The shadow was trapped and fell to the ground, letting out a cry of pain. Because Mu Shi forcibly sent an instantaneous intermediate magic, his face was like gold paper in an instant, and a trace of blood flowed out of the corner of his mouth, and he was actually counterattacked.
"Calm down." Beiye floated behind Mu Shi, stretched out a hand and pressed it on Mu Shi's back, and a trace of warm energy was transmitted to Mu Shi's body, repairing his injured body.
Mu Shi felt a trace of warmth in his body, which was originally full of pain due to the backlash, slightly hooked his lips, and closed his eyes to repair his injured body with peace of mind.
And the man in the night suit turned his head and saw the appearance of the northern night, and suddenly his eyes widened in horror, and he opened his mouth wide and was about to scream.
The northern night naturally didn't let him be alarmed, the dark red pupils looked at the eyes of the man in black, a trace of black light flashed, the body of the man in black stiffened, his eyes lost concentration, and he quieted down.
"Don't bother us." Bei Ye hooked his lips and whispered, and continued to treat Mu Shi's body injuries. Although it is impossible for him to use magic alone, the contractual relationship between the demon clan and the law clan is the best healing medicine.
After a stick of incense, Mu Shi opened his eyes, exhaled a breath of turbidity, and his face returned to ruddy. Seeing this, Beiye withdrew his hand and coughed lightly, his breath a little unsteady.
"You shouldn't have pumped me so much energy." Mu Shi got up and helped Bei Ye and reproached.
"Are you distressed?" Beiye looked down at Mu Shi with a smile, not caring at all about the poison fluctuating at the moment.
"I finally woke you up, but I don't want to fall asleep again in two days." Mu Shi didn't have a good airway, so he immediately looked at the man in black lying on the ground, a strong killing intent flashed in his eyes, and he let go of Beiye and walked towards the man in black, "I want to see who wants to kill me!" β
Bei Ye comprehended, flicked his fingers, and a black light dotted on the man in black, and then pinched a complex trick to hook up a purple-black enchantment, including the entire small courtyard.
Mu Shi sighed at Beiye's carefulness, raised his foot and kicked the man in black who was still confused, "Wake up, have you slept enough?" β
"Ahh The man in black screamed in pain, came to his senses, and the first thing he saw was Mu Shi, and he couldn't see Bei Ye, who was indifferently leaning against the pillar behind Mu Shi, and shouted, "Demon!" There are demons! β
"Shut up! You're noisy! Mu Shi couldn't help but cover his ears and kicked the man in black hard, this kick was not light, and the man in black wailed and his voice was lowered.
"Tsk." Mu Shi squatted down and ripped off the mask of the man in black, snapped his fingers and rubbed out a ball of light to look at the face of the man in black, and found that it was a man with an ordinary complexion, with a hideous scar on his face, showing his identity as a killer, "Tell me, who sent you to assassinate me?" β
The man in black relieved the pain and stared at Mu Shi in shock, what did he see?! Light Element! As Master Mu's secret guard, how could he not know Mu Shi's strength.
"Are you scared?" Mu Shi waved his hand in front of the man in black and said tentatively.
"Mu Shi, you actually colluded with the demons!" The man in black looked in horror at the northern night, half of his body melted into the darkness, and roared angrily, "You traitor to the Terrans! β
"Since you see my biggest secret-" Mu Shi stood up, looking at the black shadow man with a cold and condescending gaze, and the white-gold dagger fell into his hand, glowing with cold killing intent.
"You! You can't kill me! The shadow man trembled and shouted forcefully, "Kill me, and you'll die too!" β
"If I don't kill you, I won't die." Mu Shi looked at the man in black like an idiot, his hand was raised, and the dagger was plunged straight into the thigh of the man in black.
Mu Shi smiled and held the handle of the dagger, and said softly, "If I pull it off, I can enjoy the blood fountainββ"
"Don't!" The man in black trembled, the pain made him collapse, and then he was about to grit his teeth with a ruthless heart, Bei Yeyan quickly shot out a stone, hitting the man in black's cheeks, Mu Shi's first mercenary made a move, naturally understood, reached out and took out a poison from the man in black's mouth, and said with a smile. "Pretty heartfelt, huh? It's a qualified killer. β
"As a killer, you should also understand the consequences of suicide, right?" Mu Shi gently turned the dagger, and the sound of muscle tearing sounded, which made people's scalp tingle when they listened.
Seeing that the man in black still gritted his teeth and refused to make a sound, Mu Shi squinted his eyes, pulled the dagger suddenly, blood surged, and the man in black howled, his body trembled, "I, I will never betray my master's ......."
"Oh?" Mu Shi raised his eyebrows and whispered, "I don't know if you know that there is a way to torture people, shave people's hair, and then step into the land and only keep their heads." Then cut the skin on the top of the head, pour molten iron, and because of the pressure of the land, you can completely peel off a piece of human skin. β
The black-clothed man's pupils shrank, and his body shook violently.
"Then smear your body with honey and throw it on the ground, guess what?"
Beiye's eyebrows couldn't help but tremble, looking at Mu Shi's gaze was a little strange, I didn't expect this woman to be so ruthless, even he couldn't help but look sideways, how did this torture method come to mind?
"Devil! You devil! Kill me! The man in black howled in horror.
"Tell me who is behind the scenes, and I'll give you a good time." Mu Shi smiled lightly, and took out a dagger to pull the hair of the man in black.
"I say, I say!" The man in black listened to the sound of his hair splitting, only felt that his liver and gall were split, and shouted, "It's Miss Mu Xue!" I'm Miss Mu Xue's secret guard! β
