Chapter 180 Nine Nether Purgatory
Jun Li knew what was going on. How could Xiao Li let it go after being defeated by Jiang Xue? In the past, he was happy to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the tigers. After all, Jiang Xue was just a chess piece in his eyes.
But now, he found that he couldn't just stand by and watch! When he thought of her smiling so sweetly at Xiao Zhan, he felt upset. That smile should have belonged to him!
He had to find a way to take back what belonged to him!
"Ask Brother Shui if he wants to join me?" Xiao Min asked.
"Yeah." Jun Li thought about it and responded.
"This is what happened..." It was rare for Xiao Min to see Jun Li take the initiative to offer to travel together, so he excitedly moved closer and whispered in his ear.
"Changle, are you very familiar with His Royal Highness Prince Gong?" Lu Linyi asked while holding Jiang Xue's hand in the carriage.
This girl was very attentive. She saw the eye contact between the two of them at the poetry meeting. They were so in tune with each other that they were like one person. Especially the way Xiao Zhan looked at Changle. Although his eyes were gentle as water, she always felt that there was a fire underneath.
"Just partners with interests." Jiang Xue smiled.
"Partner with interests?" Lu Linyi blinked his big eyes, looking confused.
This cousin was too well protected by her uncle, and she didn't understand the intrigues in the capital. It was normal for her not to understand. Jiang Xue patted her hands and said, "It's okay if cousin can't figure it out for a while. I will explain it to you slowly later."
"Oh." Lu Linyi nodded obediently, looking naive and lovable.
"Although Miss Lu is older, our princess looks more like a flower protector."
Fudong quietly moved next to Xiaochun, lowered his voice, and a sly smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
"Fudong, don't be disrespectful." Jiang Xue heard her mumbling and rebuked her helplessly, but her tone was full of pampering, not real blame.
Fu Dong shrugged, stuck out his tongue, and smiled embarrassedly at Lu Linyi.
"Watch out!" Xiaochun exclaimed as the carriage shook violently. He steadied Jiang Xue with one hand while reaching for the hilt of the sword at his waist with the other!
"What happened?" After the carriage stabilized, Jiang Xue calmly asked the driver.
It was quiet all around and no one answered.
Jiang Xue felt something was wrong and nodded slightly to Xiaochun.
Xiaochun drew his sword and lifted the curtain of the carriage, and was surprised to find that the coachman had disappeared without a trace!
The carriage veered off the road, rushed into the woods, and hit a big tree!
"Princess!" Fu Dong quickly got out of the car to check and found the driver's body not far away. He had already stopped breathing.
An arrow pierced his throat, and a "lotus" bloomed on the arrowhead.
Jiang Xue examined it carefully and found that the arrowhead was in the shape of a lotus. After entering the body, it would extend barbs and was usually coated with poison. There was no chance of survival for those who were hit by the arrow.
"Princess, this is a lotus arrow." Fu Dong was familiar with all kinds of hidden weapons, and was particularly familiar with the lotus arrow.
"In Yujing, there is only one place that has this thing." Jiang Xue asked Xiaochun to cut off the arrowhead, wrap it in a handkerchief and hold it in his hand.
"Anguo Marquis Mansion."
A few months ago, the Anguo Marquis Mansion purchased new weapons, including a batch of unique lotus arrows.
It is said that Marquis Anguo had it custom-made with his own money, and he even showed it off in front of Xiao Li.
Naturally, I heard this information from Jun Li.
There were rustling sounds all around, and a group of men in black suddenly appeared and surrounded the four people.
The tip of the knife was pointed at them, and the leader had a ferocious look on his face!
Lu Linyi was so scared that he hid behind Jiang Xue, while Xiaochun and Fudong stood vigilantly on both sides with serious expressions.
Jiang Xue looked calm, like a lake. She glanced around and accidentally caught the shadow of a carriage not far away. She raised her lips slightly and thought to herself, since someone wants to play, she will accompany them to the end.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Lu Linyi panicked and raised his voice a few degrees, hoping that someone would hear him and come to rescue him.
The group of men in black remained silent, their eyes became wandering, sometimes flashing with evil light, and from time to time they let out a few malicious chuckles, which made Lu Linyi even more afraid.
"Don't be afraid, cousin. They can't do anything to us." Jiang Xue comforted her softly, holding her hand tightly to convey her strength. Then she turned to the men in black, and said in a calm tone with a force that could not be ignored: "I have limited patience. I'll give you a quarter of an hour to get out of here, or don't blame me for being ruthless."
Jiang Xue smiled as she spoke, as if she was just chatting rather than threatening, which made the men in black misjudge the situation. They thought she was just a weak woman and ignored her warning.
The leading man in black was even more rude: "Haha, I love taming wild horses the most! Princess, you are walking into a trap!"
The other men in black laughed. If it were a normal woman, she would have been ashamed and angry, but Jiang Xue remained calm, as if it had nothing to do with her. But upon closer inspection, the coldness in her eyes seemed to come from the Netherworld.
"Xiaochun, Fudong, I don't want to leave them alive." Jiang Xue sighed softly. She gave them a chance to live, but they didn't cherish it. She turned to the two maids and told them that they had suffered so much from following her, and it was time for them to take action to vent their anger. No one in the forest would know, so let them give it a try.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaochun and Fudong cooperated tacitly and subdued the man in black in an instant. Fudong's hidden weapon was coated with a poison specially made by Jiang Xue, which immediately numbed the skin and made him unable to move.
Xiaochun was as agile as a cat. Although he was not very strong, he was very fast and easily took control of the situation. In a few moves, half of the enemies were lying on the ground, and the rest were naturally cleaned up by Fudong.
Outside the woods, Xiao Min leaned comfortably on Jun Li's shoulder, waiting for the show to begin. Judging by the time, the guys inside should have been dealt with almost immediately.
When the time comes, she will go in leisurely, but she must make sure that Jiang Xue's scandal spreads throughout Yujing City. By the way, that Lu Linyi, the little bitch who always helps Jiang Xue, will not be able to escape either!
Soon, Xiao Min felt that the time was right, and got up with satisfaction, taking Chen Xiner with her, ready to watch Jiang Xue's miserable appearance. But before she even landed, Chen Xiner's scream almost broke her eardrums!
"What soul are you calling?"
Xiao Min lifted the curtain and angrily asked Chen Xiner, but was also shocked by the scene before him!
"ah!"
Her scream was louder than Chen Xiner's!
Jun Li lost his patience with the two women's sudden movements. When he got out of the car, he saw corpses all over the ground!
There were six of them, exactly the number that went in. All of them had no heads and were neatly placed in front of the carriage, like some kind of weird welcome ceremony.
Boom!
Jiang Xue's carriage came out of the woods and sped away along the road without looking back. The driver was Xiaochun, and Jun Li saw it clearly.
"Ask Brother Shui!"
When Xiao Min saw Jun Li get off the car, he immediately rushed over and buried his face in his chest, not daring to look at the six heads.
Jun Li instinctively wanted to hide, but Xiao Min's arms were tightly around his waist, so he had nowhere to hide. He had to endure the discomfort and let her hug him.
"What are you still standing there for? Get rid of these!"
Xiao Min held on tightly and refused to let go, leaving Jun Li helplessly waving his hands at his men and giving orders.
