Ji Ying couldn't help but gasp. His entire arm and shoulder went numb for a moment, and he could barely hold the sword.
But Ji Ying had been left in the military camp by Ji Mulin since he was a child, and had been toughened up as he grew up. He would never let go so easily.
But this wolf cub in front of him was clearly too ferocious. His kung fu was wide and powerful, and every move was a killing blow, clearly aimed at taking his life.
Ji Ying gritted his teeth, finally seizing an opportunity to raise his sword, but Ji Linyuan dodged it with a sidestep, his longsword flashing out—
They cut a large gash directly into his abdomen.
A sharp pain struck, and Ji Ying was unsteady on his feet. But Ji Linyuan clearly wasn't going to give him a chance to retaliate. He immediately stabbed him several more times, leaving him on the verge of death, before kicking him off the stage.
Then, he leaped up, ripped off the silver unicorn mask that was the prize on the high platform, and waved to the old king above: "Father! I won!"
Old Lord Wang: ? ? ?
Who is this kid calling?
The old king had been pressured by Ji Mulin and his son, and now he couldn't react to this sudden change. The white pieces in his hand stopped as he reached out, and he didn't know how to react.
Si Jin bowed his head and took the white piece from the old king's hand first, placing it on the chessboard and instantly changing the deadlock.
This caused the old king's pieces to surround Ji Mulin's pieces.
At this moment, the cunning young master of the Gu King finally spoke calmly and composedly: "The deadlock is broken, Your Majesty, you have lost."
Because of his high vantage point, Ji Mulin could clearly see that Ji Linyuan had brought back not only soldiers from Miao territory, but also cavalry, wolf warriors, eagles, and falcons from the grasslands.
If things continue like this, the 60,000 troops he stationed on the Miao border will be like a drop of water flowing into the ocean, unable to cause any ripples.
Seeing Si Jinwen's gentle and beautiful smile, Ji Mulin's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly realized: "You lied to me!"
He said, "You venomous snake, you lied to me! You pretended not to dare to fight back and let me do whatever I wanted, but you actually wanted to buy time for Ji Linyuan so that the grasslands and Miao regions could join forces to attack me from both sides!"
"Yes, it's a pity you found out too late." After saying this casually, Si Jin slowly stood up, adjusted the silver ornaments around her neck, and gave the order with the air of a king.
"Guards! The Emperor of the Central Plains is so magnanimous that he is willing to go to Miao territory as a hostage in order to forge peace between the two countries. Now, lock Ji Mulin and Ji Ying in the post station. No one is allowed to release them without my permission!"
"Anyone who disobeys will be killed without exception!"
Damn it! You Sijin had planned everything all along. Now he just wanted to force him to hand over the throne. He thought he was so powerful, and he happily held a martial arts contest to find a husband!
Ji Mulin panicked, so anxious that he almost bit his lip. The wounds all over his body from being stabbed by Si Jin started to ache again, making his heart even more chaotic.
After thinking it over, I decided to go and look at Ji Linyuan: "Yuan'er!"
Ji Mulin shouted, "I am your royal uncle! As long as you help your royal uncle conquer Miao territory today, the whole world will belong to our Ji family. Wealth and beauties are yours to choose from!"
If Ji Linyuan were willing to help, he could legitimately abduct You Sijin back to the Central Plains and lock her up for his own amusement.
He wanted to see if the young master of the Gu King, known as the "poisonous snake," would still dare to act arrogantly towards him then.
"Yuan'er!" Ji Mulin continued to persuade, "You Sijin is a poisonous snake, don't believe him, we are family..."
However, before he could finish speaking, Ji Linyuan raised his hand and thrust his long sword onto the high platform. The tip of the sword, stained with Ji Ying's blood, pierced straight through Ji Mulin's abdomen.
The man's eyes widened instantly, blood trickling from his mouth. He no longer had the strength to shout and could only lie on the ground, staring blankly at Ji Linyuan.
It seemed unbelievable that this once simple-minded, foolish boy would believe in Si Jin, a venomous snake whose mouth never utters a word of truth.
