Xiao Jinghan clenched his fists tightly, his voice cold: "The weapon Xiao Jingyi is using now is a sword, and I have never seen him use a spear!"
Ji Daoyuan's eyes flashed with anger. "Perhaps he's trying to cover up what happened back then, so he doesn't dare to use his spear! Can we really expect such a heartless person to feel guilty?"
Xiao Jinghan carefully wrapped up the spear tip and warned Ji Daoyuan, "You must be careful of Xiao Jingyi's spies. If he wants to attack you, you can ask for help from the Soul-Seizing Sect or the Dark Moon Pavilion!"
Ji Daoyuan nodded repeatedly and replied, "I understand!"
Xiao Jinghan held Ji Daoyuan's hand tightly, his eyes full of determination: "Uncle Yuan, the people my father trusted the most when he was alive were you and Uncle Xu. You are both the elders I respect the most, so you don't have to be so modest in the future!" His tone was sincere and genuine, which made Ji Daoyuan's heart warm.
Ji Daoyuan's eyes were slightly moist, tears glistening in them. He said excitedly, "Young Master, we've been worried about your safety all these years. Now that you've grown up and are still so brave and resourceful, it's truly gratifying! If the prince were still in heaven, he would surely feel immensely relieved!" As he spoke, he couldn't help but burst into tears.
After Xiao Jinghan and Dark Moon Demon Princess left Zhongyi City, Ji Wushuang came to Ji Daoyuan's study. Ji Wushuang said to his father, "Dad, Xiao Jingyi has been sending assassins to look for the young master. Should we take action?"
Ji Daoyuan frowned and asked, "How are you going to attack?"
A hint of ruthlessness flashed across Ji Wushuang's eyes, and he said, "Father, why don't I ask the people in the martial arts world to intercept and kill Xiao Jingyi's men! This way, we can weaken his power, and secondly, we can protect the young master."
Ji Daoyuan's eyes flickered with hesitation after hearing this, but he nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead and make the arrangements. But be careful not to reveal your identity."
Ji Wushuang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Dad. I will take care of everything." After that, he turned and left the study.
Ji Daoyuan looked at Ji Wushuang's departing figure and sighed in his heart: Back then, he also swore to protect the prince at all costs! But the prince he respected the most was killed by the thief Xiao Jingyi!
Xiao Jingyi has been in a bad mood recently because there has been no news about the secret guards and assassins he sent out, as if they had disappeared at the end of the world.
He was restless, but he had no way to vent his frustrations. So every night he would go to his concubines to seek happiness and forget his troubles. However, this not only made him weaker and weaker, but also gradually lost his judgment.
One day, Xiao Jingyi felt unwell and called the court doctor.
After examining him, the court physician frowned and said in a serious tone, "Marshal, you are in your prime and should be full of energy, but now you are so weak. This is really not right! Although you are young and energetic, for the sake of your health, you can't indulge in partying every night, otherwise it will affect your health."
After hearing this, Xiao Jingyi sighed inwardly. He knew that what the court doctor said made sense, but he couldn't control his behavior.
Every night, he would feel an overwhelming urge in his lower abdomen. He began to wonder if he was ill or cursed. This situation worried him greatly, and he didn't know how to solve it.
So Xiao Jingyi gave up the idea of assassinating Xiao Jinghan. He thought that Xiao Jinghan would die sooner or later anyway, so he just wanted to keep alive for a few more days.
Without Xiao Jingyi's men obstructing them, Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy quickly arrived at Fengying Village, the border between Dazhao Kingdom and Youli Kingdom.
Xi Ruming stood at the entrance of the village early in the morning, anxiously waiting for Xueying's arrival.
Finally, a carriage slowly approached and stopped at the village entrance. Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy stepped out of the carriage, their figures becoming particularly eye-catching.
Xi Ruming hurried forward and greeted him respectfully: "Young Master! Young Master's Wife!"
Xueying smiled slightly and said gently, "There's no need to be so polite, father-in-law!" His eyes revealed his respect for Xiruming.
Dark Moon Fairy stood quietly by, her beautiful face attracting the attention of the surrounding villagers. However, her eyes were always fixed on Blood Shadow, full of love and tenderness.
The three of them walked into the village together, and the villagers cast curious and awed glances at them. The appearance of Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy brought a touch of mystery to the small village, as if foreshadowing an unusual event.
Dark Moon Fairy lowered her head in thought, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes: "Divine Doctor Xi... is he your man?"
Blood Shadow looked at Dark Moon Fairy, smiled slightly, and explained, "Yafu is not my subordinate, but the high priest of Youli Nation, and also my mother's senior brother. If it weren't for Yafu's help, I'm afraid I would have died long ago."
After hearing this, Dark Moon Fairy's mind suddenly became clear, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. "I see, no wonder Divine Doctor Xi is so devoted to you. Then, was it also your idea that Divine Doctor Xi took my sixth brother as his apprentice?"
At this time, Xi Ruming laughed and interrupted, "Haha, that disciple of mine is the one I like myself, it has nothing to do with the young master."
Blood Shadow gently touched his nose, then lowered his voice and said to Dark Moon Fairy, "Actually, if I didn't agree, he wouldn't dare to accept me as a disciple so easily. After all, Sixth Brother will be assisting His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin in the future, so having superb medical skills would be a good thing for him."
Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Enchantress smiled at each other, then continued walking forward with Xi Ruming.
The further they went in, the more surprised Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy became.
Because they found that every villager in this village walked with a very steady and powerful pace, and looked like a martial artist.
