Chapter 158 She is a despicable person
She must be crazy to like this ugly man.
To dislike such a stunningly handsome man is an insult to him!
"When you go up there later, kill that man first, and bring that short woman to me!"
The people downstairs were stunned for a second. Wasn't their purpose in coming here to deal with Qi Zeyun?
How did it become a matter of prioritizing killing the man and capturing the woman?
"Your Highness Zexuan, let's deal with Qi Zeyun first. Those two lackeys are not worthy of Your Highness's attention!"
"I have my reasons, and you can't make decisions for me!"
These people dared not defy this madman, knowing he was unpredictable and acted on a whim.
Then send a few trusted confidants to do this, and the rest of the effort should be focused on dealing with Qi Zeyun.
Qi Zeyun simply waved his hand, and many more people jumped down from the carriage.
Those people were all carrying crossbows with plum blossom arrows, which could fire six arrows at a time, and had decent lethality and attack range.
With ranged weapons and melee combat, it's not even in the same league.
All I could hear was a flurry of short arrows flying past my ears.
If Wu Ziyan and Chu Qiu hadn't ducked quickly, he felt the arrow would have pierced their foreheads.
Qi Zeyun is a ruthless person; he doesn't care whether his teammates are in front of him or not.
Those archers were quite accurate; at least their accidental injury rate was low.
The henchmen below were fighting amongst themselves when Qi Zeyun spurred his horse toward Qi Zexuan.
They look quite alike, but their personalities are completely different.
"Little brother, you haven't improved at all! Do you think that what you gain by sacrificing your body will last? You're far too naive!"
"That's something I earned through my own hard work, sister!"
During their conversation, both of them drew their curved swords from their waists, producing a clanging sound like metal striking stone.
The two stood on horseback, swords flashing and shadows swirling, leaving Wu Ziyan stunned.
With a single strike, they fought, from horseback to the ground; neither side was to be underestimated.
They were evenly matched, with neither able to gain the upper hand.
No, no, no, if one of them dies here, the Wu Dynasty will have a hard time explaining itself.
Wu Ziyan rummaged in the bundle at her waist, where she found the group-damage poison that Mo Baiyun had prepared for her.
It's not really a poison, it's just a muscle relaxant. If you get this stuff, you might feel weak all day and even have trouble carrying water.
Turning his head to Chu Qiu, he said, "Use the cover to cover your mouth and nose, then urge the horse to go faster and run a lap around the outer perimeter."
Although Chu Qiu felt somewhat ashamed of this behavior, he didn't care about bad people.
He slapped his sword sheath against the horse's rump, and the horse neighed and galloped away.
Wu Ziyan controlled the reins, letting them drift away in the air.
It was colorless and odorless, but after a while, the sounds of fighting subsided.
Wu Ziyan stood at a distance and shouted, "Stop fighting, all of you! I've already poisoned it. If you want to live, stop fighting!"
Upon hearing this, Qi Zexuan's anger flared up.
This woman is good at these kinds of underhanded tricks; she doesn't act like a righteous woman at all!
They poisoned them again; it's really impossible to guard against, but the medicine works so fast.
They did feel their aggression gradually dissipating; even holding a knife felt strenuous, and they just wanted to sit down and rest.
The guards had anticipated Wu Ziyan's move and had taken precautions.
They now only target those who are strong, skilled in martial arts, and not just average-looking.
This can be considered a blow to Wu Chengye's arrogance.
After all, the people Wu Chengye gave to Qi Zexuan were all the elites among elites.
Not to mention taking on a hundred, but even taking on ten would be more than enough, but unfortunately, they were all killed by these secret guards.
Those who were weaker actually escaped unscathed. Wu Ziyan felt the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end as he looked at the bloody scene.
The air was thick with the smell of blood, after all, they had slit throats one by one.
But Chu Qiu, a man, was not afraid; she felt her body trembling slightly.
Perhaps because he had never seen such a scene before, he covered Wu Ziyan's eyes with his hand: "Don't look."
Wu Ziyan leaned against his chest and rested against his back.
She could feel his warmth coming from her body, which did relieve her chilly back considerably.
At that moment, she understood the meaning of "the victor is king, the loser is villain."
Qi Zexuan sat down on the ground unwillingly. Fortunately, his sister was also poisoned, otherwise he would definitely have become a victim of the knife.
"My sister, do you really want to cooperate with this despicable person? Judging from her behavior, do you think you can get away with it?"
“I think she’s quite smart. This is Wu Dynasty territory. If either of us gets into trouble, they will all be implicated.”
"Then let's see who comes out on top!"
"At least not between you and me right now."
Wu Ziyan ordered his guards to tie up Qi Zexuan and the others.
They threw them all onto Qi Zeyun's truck, stuffing their mouths with smelly rags.
Then they helped Qi Zeyun into the carriage. Since they didn't have the antidote for the time being, they could only drive slowly into the city.
"You woman, I never thought you'd like such an ugly guy. Are you mentally twisted? You like him!"
Qi Zexuan hadn't been gagged yet and was still cursing.
Wu Ziyan led Chu Qiu over: "I like him, so what? You are very beautiful, haven't you heard of 'beauty is a curse'? Beautiful women have short lives!"
"I acted so well, why did you..."
"If you don't like someone, you just don't like them. Why ask so many questions? It's like how I just don't like you."
"And my second sister may not necessarily like you. It's probably because you're very skilled and make her happy."
"you!"
"You seem to be very good at using your body to get something in return, but unfortunately, some people don't care."
"Alright, gag him with your stinky socks!"
Qi Zexuan wanted to curse again, but his mouth was shut up by the smelly socks he had worn for several days of marching.
The pungent, sour smell shot straight to the top of my head, making me want to vomit but unable to. All I could do was glare fiercely at her retreating figure.
As the host, she still had to explain things to Qi Zeyun to avoid any misunderstanding.
Qi Zeyun sat inside the carriage, his hands resting properly on his knees, staring at her with wide eyes.
She gave a formal smile: "Oh, don't be angry. There's no antidote for now, and this is for your safety."
"who are you?"
“I am Wu Chengji’s family member, and she trusts me a lot.”
Seeing her nonsensical answer, he didn't want to ask any further questions.
She could roughly guess her identity, and the man beside her seemed very wary of her.
May you keep your promise.
"Don't worry, if I were to break my promise, I could have killed you all just now and thrown you across the border. Who would have known? Then I could have framed Bei Rong. Do you think your Xiao Rong could have survived?"
