Chapter 394 Assassination
Tuoba Hun suddenly felt a palpitation in his sleep. He opened his eyes abruptly and was about to shout when he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
The next moment, Tuoba Hun was terrified. Although his heart was in unbearable pain, for some reason, he couldn't utter a word.
Could it be a nightmare?
No, this felt too real, someone was trying to assassinate him!
"..." Tuoba Hun had been lying prone due to his injury. At this moment, he tried to stay awake and turned his head, staring at the two people in front of the bed with wide eyes - Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu.
He was not familiar with Yuan Ziyu, but he recognized Huo Xifei.
Huo Xifei!
He actually came to Chi Le and tried to assassinate him!
Tuoba Hun was both shocked and angry. He was angry that Huo Xifei came to Chi Le in person to assassinate him regardless of his status, and he was also shocked that Huo Xifei could enter his bedroom quietly. You know, the guards of the Grand Prince's Mansion are all carefully selected. The defense of the entire Grand Prince's Mansion is not as solid as a rock, but it is not something that anyone can enter and exit easily.
Tuoba Hun raised his left hand tremblingly, wanting to scold Huo Xifei, but his gradually fading strength made it impossible for him to do so.
Being stabbed in the heart, Tuoba Hun could only die helplessly, no matter how unwilling he was. His eyes were wide open, expressing his unwillingness and anger.
Huo Xifei quickly took out a black jade pendant from his arms and stuffed it into Tuoba Hun's hand. This black jade pendant belonged to Tuoba Qiong. Before coming to the eldest prince's mansion, Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu specially went to the fourth prince's mansion and took it out when Tuoba Qiong was not paying attention.
After erasing all traces of their presence, Huo Xifei and Yuan Ziyu entered the Qiongjiang Pavilion again. During the entire process, no one in the Grand Prince's Mansion knew about it.
In the Qiongjiang Pavilion, Yuan Ziyu held a bloody dagger in his hand, quietly looking at Tuoba Hun's corpse outside the Qiongjiang Pavilion.
The revenge that he couldn't take in his previous life was taken with his own hands in this life, and Nanny Gu was also taken as well. Yuan Ziyu felt as if a huge stone had been lifted from his heart, and he felt a lot more relaxed.
She wiped the blood off the dagger and turned to look at Huo Xifei: "Brother Xi, thank you."
"I said, you never have to say thank you to me." Huo Xifei stroked Yuan Ziyu's hair lovingly. He could see that after Tuoba Hun died, the girl was obviously much more relaxed.
"Okay." Yuan Ziyu nodded with a smile.
The two of them rested for a while, and then searched around the Grand Prince's Mansion, trying to find the person who made the Soul-Capture Device.
Unfortunately, the two searched the eldest prince's mansion thoroughly but found no clues, not even the medicine to capture the soul.
"Could it be that I'm mistaken?" Yuan Ziyou originally thought that the person who could make the Soul-Snatching Medicine must be in Tuoba Hun's hands. "Could it be that Tuoba Hun just got this Soul-Snatching Medicine by chance?"
"Maybe." Huo Xifei wasn't quite sure either.
"But." Yuan Ziyou was still a little confused: "The Soul-Snatching Technique has been extinct for a long time. Even if Tuoba Hun obtained it by chance, how did he know it was the Soul-Snatching Technique, and how did he understand its purpose?"
No matter how Yuan Ziyu thought about it, he felt something was wrong.
"Okay, don't think about it. If there really is such a person, he will show up sooner or later." Huo Xifei comforted.
"That's all we can do."
On the second day, Chi-Le revealed something that shocked everyone - the eldest Chi-Le prince Tuoba Hun was assassinated by the fourth prince Tuoba Qiong.
