Chapter 317 Fear
itch!!!
This is the only feeling of the assassin leader!
It was an indescribable itch that felt like it had penetrated into the bone joints and rubbed into the marrow.
The assassin leader's hands and feet were sore and weak that his fingers had little strength. Even if he wanted to scratch, it was a luxury for him now!
"Ah...ah...ah..." Finally, the assassin leader endured it again and again, but finally couldn't bear it anymore and rolled over: "Give me a quick death! Give me a quick death!"
As he spoke, the assassin leader banged his head hard against the ground to relieve the pain caused by the strange itch!
After a few hits, his head was broken and bleeding!
But the itch that makes one's life worse than death still does not get any relief, but instead tends to get worse!
"Ah... Kill me! Kill me!" The assassin leader's voice changed and he collapsed on the ground powerlessly. There was a hint of pleading in his eyes when he looked at Huo Xifei and others, and there was a hint of fear in his eyes when he looked at Yuan Ziyu.
Over the years, he has lived on the edge of a knife, experienced cruel tests, and lost countless lives. He originally thought that he was used to life and death and had no fear of anything.
However, the man in front of him easily broke his will, which he thought was extremely strong. At this moment, his only wish was that these people could end his pain as soon as possible.
"Who sent you?" Yuan Ziyu had a smile on her face, but there was a cold chill in her smile. Today's assassination completely touched her bottom line.
Even Pingshan and others were shocked by the coldness in Yuan Ziyu's smile!
The assassin leader pursed his lips and refused to speak!
That person saved his life. If it weren't for that person, he would have died long ago!
"Don't say it?" Yuan Ziyu's smile grew even wider, but a hint of hostility slowly overflowed from his eyes.
Seeing that the assassin leader still didn't say anything, Yuan Ziyu pursed his lips and sprinkled some medicine powder at the assassin leader.
At this moment, the assassin leader felt itchy and painful all over his body, as if something was drilling out of his skin.
If the assassin leader looked down at his skin at this moment, he would find that his skin was now covered with blue-black blood spots. Every time a drop of black blood flowed out of those blood spots, it would burn the surrounding skin, and then the burned skin would slowly begin to rot.
This was the first time Yuan Ziyu used poison after becoming Gu Ma's disciple.
"Ah...ah..." The assassin leader screamed until his voice broke. He felt so itchy and painful that his consciousness became a little blurred.
"Speak!" Yuan Ziyou gritted his teeth and said, "Who sent you to assassinate the Marquis Xuanping's son?"
"It's the Grand Tutor... It's the Grand Tutor!" The assassin leader was in so much pain that he couldn't care about anything else. Upon hearing Yuan Ziyu's question, he followed her lead and said, "It was Grand Tutor Liu who sent me to assassinate... to assassinate the son of the Marquis Xuanping. Ah... Ah... Kill me, kill me!"
Master Liu!
Liu Heng!
Yuan Ziyu gritted his teeth and looked at the assassin leader rolling on the ground. The hostility in his eyes spread to his face little by little!
"You'er!" Seeing this, Huo Xifei hurried forward and held Yuan Ziyu's hand. Yuan Ziyu like this suddenly made him feel a little unfamiliar. For some reason, Huo Xifei felt a little panic in his heart, as if he was afraid that Yuan Ziyu would suddenly disappear!
The moment Huo Xifei grabbed Yuan Ziyu's hand, Yuan Ziyu paused, and the hostility on his face slowly dissipated.
She turned to look at Huo Xifei, her eyes flashing with unknown emotions, then turned back to look at the assassin leader: "Besides Master Liu, who else is there? Is it Xuanyuan Xiao?"
"And Prince Ning... Prince Ning!" The assassin leader was tortured by pain and didn't care about anything else. He just poured out everything he knew.
"Very good!" Yuan Ziyu narrowed his eyes, pulled out the dagger from his boots, broke free from Huo Xifei's hand, stepped forward and killed the assassin leader.
After killing the leader of the assassins, Yuan Ziyu was still not satisfied. He raised his knife and slashed. In an instant, more than a dozen assassins were killed by Yuan Ziyu's dagger.
Standing among a dozen corpses, Yuan Ziyu gasped heavily, as if he wanted to release all the depression in his heart.
Everyone in Pingshan was stunned. Since they met Yuan Ziyu, they had never seen her like this. At this moment, they seemed to get to know Yuan Ziyu all over again and stared at her blankly.
"Pingshan!" At this time, Huo Xifei called out.
"Prince...Prince..." Pingshan came back to his senses after hearing the voice and responded quickly.
"Deal with all these corpses. Also, calm down the people in the inn." Huo Xifei ordered, "Also, clear everyone around this room. No one is allowed to approach."
"Yes, Prince!" Pingshan responded quickly, and then he and Huo Twelve and others hurriedly dragged the bodies of the assassins out of the room!
When only Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu were left in the room, Huo Xifei closed the door tightly and slowly walked to Yuan Ziyu's side.
At this time, Yuan Ziyu seemed to be immersed in his own world, and did not react at all to Huo Xifei's approach.
"You'er!" Huo Xifei grabbed Yuan Ziyou's hand again: "You'er, look at me!"
Seeing that Yuan Ziyu still didn't say anything, Huo Xifei worriedly called out, "You'er!"
Finally, Yuan Ziyou reacted. She turned around woodenly and looked at Huo Xifei for a long time. After a while, she said, "Brother Xi, am I too stupid?"
"You'er, it's okay now, everything is okay!" Huo Xifei felt that Yuan Ziyu must have been upset by the assassin's incident, and hurriedly comforted her softly.
"No, something's wrong!" Yuan Ziyu shook her head gently: "I was too stupid, too self-righteous, thinking that I could turn everything around just by coming back, but, I seem to have made things even more complicated!"
In the previous life, there was absolutely no such thing as Tutor Liu assassinating Huo Xifei.
It was her return that complicated everything!
"No, You'er, no, these things have nothing to do with you at all!" Yuan Ziyu's words frightened Huo Xifei. He hugged Yuan Ziyu tightly and said, "You'er, don't think like that. Don't leave me, don't leave me!"
Yuan Ziyu leaned in Huo Xifei's arms, still muttering to himself: "No, it's all because of me. I'm back, but it seems like nothing has changed. Perhaps, at some point, the emperor will issue an imperial decree to execute the entire Yuan family. And, I actually caused you to be assassinated by Grand Tutor Liu. If it weren't for the Qiongjiang Pavilion today, if it weren't for those drugs..."
Without these, could they have killed these assassins?
Would her brother Xi be seriously injured or even lose his life?
Yuan Ziyu didn't dare to think any further. She was so scared that she was trembling with fear.
Feeling Yuan Ziyu's trembling, Huo Xifei felt extremely distressed: "You'er, listen to me, don't be afraid, it's not your fault, it's really not your fault! Liu Heng wants to kill me, and it has nothing to do with you!"
