Chapter 189: The Killing Tower
suddenly.
Sharp arrows whizzed in from all directions.
Xuanyuan Jing and Xiao Fuguang leaped up at the same time, moving lightly through the rain of arrows like two dancing butterflies, easily avoiding the dense arrows.
Until he dodged three waves of arrows.
A black shadow rushed out from the villa and rushed straight towards Xuanyuan Jing.
The owner of Juesha Tower finally showed up, wearing a half mask on his face, revealing only a pair of sinister eyes.
"How dare you break into the Juesha Building."
Xuanyuan Jing snorted coldly, not afraid at all, holding a sharp sword and fighting with the owner of Juesha Tower.
The sword flashed like lightning, and the sword shadows were heavy. The two men fought back and forth, and the fight was hard to determine.
"As expected of Jueshalou, this hospitality is truly special."
The host spoke while fighting with Xuanyuan Jing.
"As expected of the Prince Regent and Princess, they actually came to this villa."
Xiao Fuguang watched the two fighting and spoke slowly.
"It's just a few formations. This princess barely knows a thing or two."
The host's attack became more and more fierce, and each sword was aimed directly at Xuanyuan Jing's vital points. It was obvious that he was unwilling to delay any longer.
Xuanyuan Jing also tried his best, his sword moves were exquisite, and every move gave him the upper hand over the enemy. The battle between the two became more and more intense, and the sword wind whistled, blowing up the fallen leaves around them.
Finally, when the owner of Juesha Tower pointed his sword at Xuanyuan's left shoulder, Xuanyuan Jing's sword also cut through the owner's mask, and the sword rested on the owner's neck.
A handsome face appeared.
Xiao Fuguang smiled and clapped his hands.
“Pah pah pah…”
"This is the most wonderful swordsmanship this princess has ever seen."
"Thank you for your hard work, Your Highness and the host."
The poster took a look at Xuanyuan Jing. No wonder he was called the God of War of Xuanyuan. His swordsmanship was even better than his own.
"Thank you both for coming to this place to ask for tea."
After saying that, he put away the sword in his hand.
Xuanyuan Jing also put away his sword.
The host walked inside.
"Let's go, I'll treat you two to a cup of coarse tea."
Soon several people entered the hall of the villa.
The people from Juesha Tower also served hot tea. Xiao Fuguang noticed that even the people who served tea and water had high martial arts skills.
The host looked at the two of them.
"The Prince Regent and Princess Regent's visit to this OP shouldn't be just for a cup of tea, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Jing picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly.
"The Killing Tower."
"Underworld forces survive by selling intelligence and taking orders for murder."
"But they secretly kill the rich to help the poor. Most of the people they killed in recent years were wealthy and unscrupulous businessmen."
Upon hearing this, the host looked at Xuanyuan Jing and spoke.
"The Regent knows a lot."
"Could it be that the Regent also wants to kill someone?"
"If you offer enough money, I can consider it."
Xuanyuan Jing looked at the host with sharp eyes.
"I came here today to ask the owner of the building a question. Is it true that the Juesha Building does not attack women and children?"
The host's eyes flickered when he heard this, as if he hadn't expected Xuanyuan Jing to ask such a question. He gently turned the teacup in his hand, pondered for a moment, and then slowly spoke.
"Juesha Tower does have this rule. Women, children, the elderly, the weak, the sick, and the disabled are all excluded from our orders. Although the world may be chaotic, the bottom line cannot be broken. This is the foundation of our Juesha Tower."
Xuanyuan Jing continued to speak after hearing this.
"But recently, nearly a hundred members of the Yao family were killed on the road of exile between the imperial city and the border, including women and children."
"A handkerchief embroidered with the words 'Jueshalou' was found at the scene."
Upon hearing this, the host spoke hurriedly.
"That's impossible."
"Jueshalou has not received any orders regarding the Yao family."
Then his eyes darkened.
"It seems someone is using Juesha Building to do something."
Xuanyuan Jing glanced at him and continued speaking.
"Over the years, the court has turned a blind eye to Jueshalou. Firstly, Jueshalou belongs to the underworld forces and does not interfere in the affairs of the court. Secondly, Jueshalou robs the rich to help the poor and does not attack women and children. Most of the nearly 100 people in the Yao family are women and children. This matter has now begun to spread in the imperial city. If Jueshalou is now known to have killed the Yao family, I am afraid the court will have no choice but to turn a blind eye as before."
"What's more, Prince Rong is the grandson of the Yao family. Although all the Yao family members are dead, there is still a Concubine Yao in the palace. I know that everyone in Juesha Tower is a master, but can you guarantee that Juesha Tower can withstand the imperial court's stranglehold?"
The host's face darkened when he heard this, and then he looked at Xuanyuan Jing again.
"Then the prince and princess broke into the Juesha Tower at night to tell me who is behind this building?"
Xuanyuan Jing chuckled and spoke upon hearing this.
"What are you going to give me in exchange?"
The owner of Juesha Tower spoke upon seeing this.
"If I'm not mistaken, the prince and princess have already broken into this Juesha Tower. I think it's because this incident has implicated the prince or princess."
No wonder the Juesha Tower has been able to exist in the martial arts world for so many years. The owner of this tower is indeed not simple, Xiao Fuguang said slowly.
"As expected of the host, you are very sharp-minded."
"However, even if I am involved, so what? A jade pendant cannot convict me, but Juesha Loulou's reputation will be..."
The host looked at the two of them.
"What do you two want?"
Xiao Fuguang and Xuanyuan Jing looked at each other.
Xiao Fuguang spoke slowly.
"At the Yao family's crime scene, besides the handkerchief from Jueshalou, there was also a jade pendant that this princess had lost. So the person behind this plot wanted to slander this princess and then use the court to get rid of Jueshalou. They were able to locate the Yao family and obtain this kind of physical evidence. The two best suspects are Prince Rong and Su Yan, the Supreme Court Justice."
"The Yao family is Prince Rong's maternal family. Even if Prince Rong is ruthless, he wouldn't do anything to the Yao family. Therefore, the biggest suspect is Su Yan, the Junior Justice of the Dali Temple. His motives are, firstly, a minor conflict with the Regent Palace, and secondly, he wants to climb the social ladder. If this person wants to climb the social ladder, he must make achievements. If he can eliminate the Juesha Tower, that would be a great achievement."
Xuanyuan Jing also spoke from the side.
"The message has been delivered. As for whether the OP believes it or not, I believe in the OP's ability to check messages. He will soon be able to verify the truth of what the OP and the princess said. As for what we want, let the OP owe us a favor."
