The man didn't say anything, fearing that the other party would do something bad to him, so he took up his weapon and started fighting with him.
When this man's opponent saw that the other side was fighting each other, he thought that there was a change in the martial arts examination, so he rushed forward without thinking much.
What was originally a one-on-one fight turned into a three-person fight after the man joined in.
The man who came on the field was also very upset. He was clearly planning to assassinate the emperor and empress, so why did he rush onto the field for no reason?
What’s even more infuriating is that these two people didn’t even ask him any questions and just kept pestering him, leaving him no chance to escape.
Ye Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Lingyun stopped, and Wang Xiao and Tianxuan came over immediately.
"Master, are you all right?"
The two shook their heads at the same time, while Ye Xiaoxiao smiled faintly.
"It's okay. We discovered that he was up to something when he was on a bye just now."
In fact, it was not because the two of them were too vigilant, but because when Ye Xiaoxiao looked at the other party, she accidentally heard the other party's thoughts.
Ye Xiaoxiao was stunned at first, and then she was sure that the reason why the other party participated in the martial arts examination was to assassinate the two of them.
At the moment when the man attacked, Shangguan Lingyun dodged with the help of the force and kicked him directly behind.
The man was unable to control his strength at first, but was then led by Shangguan Lingyun and naturally rushed into the battle circle of the two most powerful men.
Seeing this, Wang Xiao immediately wanted to order the secret guards to capture the man, but was stopped by Ye Xiaoxiao and Shangguan Lingyun at the same time.
"Wait, this guy is quite skilled, just the right time to test the other two contestants."
Seeing this, Wang Xiao ordered the secret guards to surround the three of them to prevent any accidents.
The three men on the field had different thoughts in their minds, but Wang Xiao spoke out to remind them.
"The man with a bye is an assassin. You two can work together to kill him."
The two people who were originally restraining each other were suddenly shocked after hearing Wang Xiao's words.
However, both of them were skilled fighters, and after a brief shock, they quickly recovered.
The original mixed fight quickly turned into a two-on-one mode, and after the other two players discovered the abnormality, they had to stop temporarily.
The male protagonist who was given a bye had not used his full strength before, but now that he saw the two of them working together to suppress him, he no longer hid.
For a moment, the man was fighting two people and the fight ended in a draw.
However, he was inevitably distracted as he was fighting and looking for an opportunity to escape at the same time.
One of the men in black saw this and shouted.
"I'm going to kill you while you're sick, boy. Just surrender."
As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his long sword towards the opponent's exposed flaw.
Seeing that he was about to be chopped into two pieces by the opponent, the man suddenly flew into the air and changed direction in the air.
However, although he dodged the man's fatal blow, he fell into the attack range of the other man.
"Puff!"
With a muffled groan, the man who was not in the rotation vomited blood and fell to the ground.
The two wanted to continue fighting, but were stopped by Shangguan Lingyun.
"Stop, don't kill him."
As soon as the words fell, the two of them withdrew their hands at the same time. Wang Xiao also stepped forward quickly and directly controlled the man.
The martial arts examination was temporarily disrupted because of this episode, and Shangguan Lingyun glanced at Qin Lei who was not far away.
"You continue the competition, I will take this man away."
After Shangguan Lingyun finished speaking, he hugged Ye Xiaoxiao and left.
Behind him, Wang Xiao and others took the injured man to the imperial study. In order to prevent him from committing suicide, Wang Xiao directly removed his jaw.
Shangguan Lingyun sat on the dragon throne, and Ye Xiaoxiao sat beside him. They both looked at the man at the same time.
"Tell me, who sent you?"
The man rolled his eyes at the two of them when he heard that, and it was obvious that he had no intention of saying anything.
Ye Xiaoxiao chuckled, then looked carefully into the man's eyes and smiled faintly.
"Let me guess, who sent you?"
"Is it the Liu family?"
The man wanted to nod, but Ye Xiaoxiao slapped him in the face.
"Think it over before nodding. Otherwise, I don't mind disposing of your family members who are hiding in your old house outside Beijing."
When that person heard it, his eyes widened immediately, and Ye Xiaoxiao's lips curled up slightly.
"Are you curious about how I know where your family is?"
The man forced himself to calm down, then closed his eyes and didn't look at Ye Xiaoxiao.
Ye Xiaoxiao didn't care and spoke again.
"Even if you don't say anything, I know you were sent by Shangguan Yu."
"And your goal is to assassinate me and prevent me from developing the antidote for Lian Xin. Am I right?"
The man's face showed no sadness or joy, but a huge wave was surging in his heart.
[How did she know where I came from? How did she know where my family lived? Could it be...?]
Ye Xiaoxiao sneered, "Are you curious about how I knew this?"
"I might as well tell you that from the moment I started looking for the antidote, I already knew he would stop me."
"It's just that I really didn't expect him to be so stupid, and you are even more stupid than him."
"Now, you are no longer of any use to us, but do you know why I insisted on bringing you here?"
The man still had no expression on his face, and Ye Xiaoxiao was not angry either.
"Because I want Shangguan Yu to know that it was you who betrayed him."
"And your family will be wiped out by Shangguan Yu because of his anger."
"In this way, I don't have to do anything, and you can make yourselves disappear in front of me."
