Chapter 21: A Failed Attack
There was no suspense, of course he was here to kill her.
A few hours ago, when he watched Bai Ling help her into the wing room with the poisoned, he had not yet had such a plan to take advantage of others. Hearing Feng Wenlun say that the poison was incurable, but there seemed to be some power in her body that was cleaning up the toxin on its own, and he suddenly became alert.
Because he realized that Lan Yin was much more complex and powerful than he had imagined.
He was now basically sure that she was not the daughter of the Emperor of Heaven, otherwise the Emperor would not have ordered her to be killed. And the reason why the Heavenly Emperor and the eldest princess could both give her a killing order, Su Huaizhang thought about it and came up with only one - Lan Yin's existence is likely to be a threat to the entire immortal clan.
When he first came up with this possibility a while ago, he still felt that this reason was a little untenable, but now it seems that Lan Yin's immortal power is really abnormally strong, she is obviously not good at healing immortal arts, but she can even dissolve the poison without an antidote.
Who the hell is she?
At that moment, in addition to the orders of the Heavenly Emperor and the eldest princess, Xu Huaizhang had an idea of "eradicating Lan Yin for the safety of the fairy world", and the belief in killing her, which had not been firm enough, was also a little firm at that moment.
So he rushed over after Feng Wenlun and Bai Ling left, wanting to take advantage of this gap to make a move.
But he didn't know why he didn't do it now, he just sat in front of her.
"General Huaizhang, how long will we be silent like this?"
- Even Lan Yin asked.
Originally, she was just silently thinking about what was in her heart, even after Xu Huaizhang came in. But when she saw that he was also preoccupied, her attention was inevitably attracted.
"What are you thinking?"
She asked again.
Xu Huaizhang withdrew his sloppy gaze and focused on Lan Yin's face. She looked back at him expressionlessly, but with the candle flame as a backdrop, her meaningless eyes were clouded with a simple meaning, so that Xu Huaizhang couldn't do anything to her.
At this moment, his ears seemed to echo when he was a teenager and practiced with his clansmen, and the master often said to him, "He is too kind-hearted and soft-hearted, and a woman is kind." ”
He frowned, discarding those thoughts in his heart, and only looked at Lan Yin as an enemy he wanted to kill.
He raised his hand and slashed at her.
Lan Yin was really defenseless, she never thought that Su Huaizhang, who was in charge of protecting her safety, would actually do something to her. But the body's reaction was still very fast, and she raised her hand to take the palm, so that Xu Huaizhang's attack could not hit her directly.
But now her body is still weak, and after receiving this palm, she began to cough, coughing up some blood.
Xu Huaizhang should have taken the opportunity to attack again, but he couldn't make a second move anyway. He told himself that this was only because it would allow Lan Yin to suffer the injuries she hadn't suffered when she returned, and it would reveal that she hadn't died of poisoning, and in that case, he wouldn't be able to fulfill what the Emperor said about concealment.
He told himself, it's not that I don't kill Lan Yin, it's just that I'm not in such a hurry.
"You ......" Lan Yin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and raised his eyes to look at Xu Huaizhang, but he didn't attack her again, which made her a little confused, and she didn't know what to ask for a while. After a while, he said, "Are you going to kill me?"
The overly simple question sentence made the seeming simplicity in her eyes more obvious.
Xu Huaizhang quickly looked away, so that the guilt in his heart would dissipate a little, and the lies when he opened his mouth would be more natural.
"What do you think, Wen Lun said that the residual poison in your body has not been cleared, and you must be slapped while you are unprepared. Who knew you reacted so quickly, and just raised your hand to take it. ”
He wasn't a good liar, and he wouldn't have told this lie so badly. However, at this time, Lan Yin happened to be not a person who was good at detecting lies, and her mind was all elsewhere, so she didn't have the energy to think too much.
She blinked at Xu Huaizhang and asked him, "Do you have to fight again?"
“...... No, no. ”
Su Huaizhang wanted to do something to relieve the strange atmosphere, he went to the table to find water, but every cup was empty, and the teapot was not there.
Fortunately, Bai Ling, who had gone to boil water at this time, came back, she pushed open the door, and when she saw Xu Huaizhang, she was shocked and said, "Why are you here?" ”
"It's nothing, I'm just here to see Lan Yin. Su Huaizhang replied, and then said, "Then I'll go." And he exited the chamber.
Bai Ling, who returned to the wing, began to busily pour water for Lan Yin, but Lan Yin gradually eased up from the confusion just now.
- When Xu Huaizhang raised his hand to attack her, it was clear that he had murderous intent.
- But he didn't take advantage of the situation to make up for it, why is that? Could it be that she is thinking too much, and he is just helping her to clear the remaining poison as he said?
Bai Ling took the cup containing half a cup of hot water and handed it to Lan Yin, and the moment his fingertips touched the warmth, Lan Yin's thoughts finally came back a little from the many disturbances.
Anyway, she and Belltron really killed those two blackbird demons today.
As for the background, as for the Xu Huaizhang......
Lan Yin sighed and put a little hot water into his mouth.
The things of her life have been bothering her for too long, and she is not in a hurry.
On Xu Huaizhang's side, it was best that he didn't really have any strange thoughts, otherwise when she got better, the first thing she would do was to peel off his dragon skin and then carry the dragon skin to her so-called father, and ask him what kind of general he sent her.
Of course, she still believed in Xu Huaizhang in her heart at this time, and she didn't expect that the person who ordered Xu Huaizhang to kill her was Lan Bingguang, even when she faced many truths many years later, she couldn't believe that Lan Bingguang had been plotting to get rid of her since she first arrived in the fairy world.
