Office worker Chen Jingxi transmigrated to become the timid and weak Princess Consort Su, who had been a living widow for three years.
A living widow, a princess consort? Isn't this the i...
Chu Jinghuai watched him swing his palm towards Chen Jingxi, anger already welling up in his heart. The long sword in his hand instantly burst into a cold light, and with the force of breaking through the air, he attacked Ouyang Jian.
Ouyang Jian had just been hit by a sword, and was provoked by Chen Jingxi, so his breath was in chaos and he had no way to dodge the sword.
However, Ouyang Jian is a top master in the martial arts world after all.
As Chu Jinghuai's sword stabbed at him, he also used all his strength to send out a palm strike, which directly knocked Chu Jinghuai away.
"Jing Huai!"
When Chen Jingxi saw Chu Jinghuai fall, she didn't care about anything else and ran up directly, holding her stomach. She squatted down with difficulty, "Jinghuai, Jinghuai, how are you?"
Chu Jinghuai clutched his chest, enduring the pain as he soothed her, "I'm fine. He was hit by the sword first, and his breathing became chaotic, so he lost a lot of his internal energy. This move didn't hurt me. I'll just need to regulate my breathing and I'll be fine."
Chu Jinghuai looked her up and down again and asked, "How are you? Are you hurt?"
"I'm fine."
Hearing that she was fine, Chu Jinghuai felt relieved and looked at Ouyang Jian who had also fallen to the ground not far away.
His injuries were much more serious than Chu Jinghuai's. Chu Jinghuai's sword pierced his chest directly. His entire upper body was stained with blood. He was gasping for breath and it was obvious that he was not going to survive.
Even if he could survive, Chu Jinghuai would not let him go.
Ouyang Jian kept coughing up blood, staring at Chu Jinghuai and Chen Jingxi with unwilling eyes, and said sternly: "What a Su Wang, what a Su Wang Fei. I never thought, I really never thought that this old man would..."
Ouyang Jian died with his eyes open before he could finish his words.
Chen Jingxi breathed a sigh of relief.
Chu Jinghuai helped Chen Jingxi up and picked up the sword. He suddenly shot it out. With a loud "bang", the sword was firmly inserted into the window of a tall building in the prefectural mansion. The tip of the sword trembled slightly.
Chen Jingxi looked in the direction the sword was pointing. The window was half-open and the curtains were swaying gently, indicating that someone was watching their every move.
At this moment, Chu Jinghuai's voice rang out in the empty courtyard, carrying a barely perceptible chill: "Ninth brother, why haven't you come out yet?"
Before he finished speaking, a figure jumped down from a tall building, as light as a swallow, and landed steadily in front of them.
Chu Jingyue wore a cynical smile on his face and bowed, saying, "Congratulations, Third Brother, for defeating Senior Ouyang. Now Third Brother is the world's number one expert. I'm afraid no one will have the courage to come and seek death again in the future."
Chu Jinghuai sneered, his eyes as sharp as a torch: "I have to thank my ninth brother. If it weren't for my ninth brother, I would not have known the truth about Ye Nandie's child swap."
Chu Jingyue's expression froze slightly, but he quickly regained his composure and said with a smile, "It seems that Third Brother already knows."
"From the moment you surrendered, I began to doubt it."
Chu Jingyue's smile was a little bitter: "It seems that I have lost this round after all."
Chu Jinghuai waved his hand, and dozens of secret guards immediately surrounded Chu Jingyue. The atmosphere instantly became tense and solemn.
Chu Jingyue just smiled faintly, and with a slight shake of his body, he easily escaped from the encirclement of the secret guards.
Chen Jingxi watched Chu Jingyue leave calmly and couldn't help but ask, "Is he good at martial arts too?"
Chu Jinghuai nodded slightly, "His Qinggong can indeed be regarded as unparalleled in the world."
Chen Jingxi recalled at this moment that when they were in Waishi Village, Chu Jingyue had proudly said that his lightness skills were invincible in the world. It turned out that it was not an exaggeration, he really did not lie to her.
Thinking about how he had played her all along, she couldn't help but get angry and asked, "Why didn't you tell me?"
Chu Jinghuai was slightly stunned, then revealed an innocent expression and said, "Princess, I remember reminding you many times."
Chen Jingxi thought about it. Chu Jinghuai had indeed said something like, "Chu Jingyue isn't a simple person. He's not simple," but that was all. He never mentioned how amazing his Qinggong was. She couldn't help but feel a little annoyed. That's it? This is also called a reminder?
She continued to ask: "What exactly is going on? Why don't you explain it to me clearly?"
Seeing this, Chu Jinghuai suddenly covered his chest and said with a bitter face: "Princess, my chest hurts."
Chen Jingxi looked at him and said through gritted teeth, "Your chest hurts, doesn't it? Let me give you a good massage when we get back!"
