The soldiers stared dumbfounded at Ziyan, who was leading the group, speechless: "........"
Ziyan stared in disbelief at the hundreds of soldiers directly opposite her, stunned: "........"
The air freezes for a brief moment.
Everyone held their breath.
"you--"
"you--"
How did you end up here?
"We've come to rescue Miss Cheng/Master!"
The leaders of both sides shouted this in unison.
Then, an awkward and dead silence fell over them again.
Green Smoke from Cheng Gui Pavilion felt her heart leap into her throat as she looked at the group of people who had suddenly appeared. She immediately turned to Purple Smoke and said, "They don't look like the enemy. Who are these people? Have they been exposed?"
Ziyan wiped the cold sweat from her forehead: "The soldiers of Pingyang City are shamelessly following Young Master Zhou, begging him to take them in. Whether they will be caught or not is unknown, but there's no way to clean up the mess."
As soon as the explanation was finished...
The soldiers then turned their attention to the members of Cheng Gui Pavilion and asked in astonishment, "Miss Ziyan, are they... here to rescue Miss Cheng?"
"You, aren't you Miss Cheng's weak and helpless maid? You, them? So many of them? And they're carrying knives? What, what is going on??"
Ziyan: "........."
She never expected that she would run into this group of soldiers while on a mission.
Not only did they run into each other, but their true identities were also exposed!
She simply couldn't imagine what her master would do if he found out about this—he would skin her alive!
That's enough!
Ziyan, her face ashen, swept her gaze across the assembled soldiers and said angrily, "What's there to ask? Is this the time to be asking such trivial matters? Get out of the way, kick the door open, and kill everyone inside!"
"master!"
"Your subordinate has arrived!"
"Bang."
“Boom—”
The door to the dark room was violently kicked into pieces by Ziyan.
This earth-shattering scene astonished the soldiers, their eyes wide with disbelief.
Ziyan, carrying a long sword, lifted her skirt and charged in with an imposing aura.
The group exchanged glances and immediately followed suit.
Meanwhile, inside the dark room...
Senior Brother Lu, Senior Brother Hao, and the rest of the academy were still in shock. They stared at their junior sister, whose throat had been pierced by a needle, and at her unseeing corpse. They were completely bewildered.
Then look at Cheng Xianyi, she actually has the leisure to wipe the blood off her hands at this time?
have a look,
have a look!
Could this be a delicate noblewoman raised in the capital, unable to lift a finger or do anything heavy? This is clearly a ruthless killer!
"You, you...you are the only daughter of Grand Tutor Cheng of the capital? Impossible! This is impossible! Who are you! My junior sister has extremely high martial arts talent, how could an ordinary person take the silver needle from her hand?"
"How could it be possible to strike her through the throat before she even had a chance to react! And at the Jinjin acupoint! You even know about acupoints on the throat?"
"You also know strength?!"
Senior Brother Lu was so shocked that he almost lost half his soul.
He never expected that this young lady, who was so frightened that she didn't even scream for help, this naive and innocent girl, would actually strike her junior sister's fatal weakness.
In response to Senior Brother Lu,
It was Cheng Xianyi's casual remark: "I can."
