Sweat immediately broke out on Su Donglou's forehead. Gritting his teeth, he was about to take action to stop Feng Gu, when he suddenly heard a "hiss" sound. The next moment, the communication fireworks that Feng Gu had just thrown out were cut in half in mid-air and fell down helplessly.
At the same time, a figure jumped out from the woods a few dozen steps away, and came close in a blink of an eye, fighting with Feng Gu without saying a word.
"stop."
Lu Fengyu shouted loudly. The next moment, the two people who were entangled into afterimages really stopped. But soon, Feng Gu fell on her back, and a little blood slowly oozed from her forehead. Her beautiful eyes were still wide open, as if she couldn't believe that she, with all her martial arts skills, would be killed so quickly.
Duan Tingxuan put away the sword in his hand. Only then could he feel his heart still beating.
The reason why he killed her right away was because Feng Gu wanted to kill Su Nuannuan. If Su Donglou had not rescued Su Nuannuan in time, the young marquis knew that he would be exposed in advance. At that moment, he could not control himself and wait for the opportunity rationally.
"It's you." Lu Fengyu didn't seem to be flustered at all, and even clapped his hands twice, laughing: "I told you long ago that if one day you become successful, I would be very proud to think that you once served me so respectfully and called yourself a slave."
Duan Tingxuan narrowed his eyes dangerously, but did not respond. Instead, he turned to Su Nuannuan and asked with concern, "Are you okay?"
"Hahaha, what a joke, didn't you see she was..." When Lu Fengyu said this, he suddenly felt something was wrong. It was obvious that Su Donglou could subdue Su Nuannuan with just a wave of his hand, but why didn't Duan Tingxuan rescue his lover first, but instead rushed to kill Feng Gu?
He is not stupid. When he thought of this, he felt a chill rising from the bottom of his feet. He turned his head suddenly to look at Su Donglou, and saw that the other party pointed the sword at him. When he saw him looking over, he smiled lazily and said, "I have tried my best and almost got fooled by you, a venomous snake. Finally, all my efforts have not been in vain. Today, I have you in my hand."
Lu Fengyu stared at Su Donglou blankly, as if he could not accept this fact until now. He just kept repeating: "How is it possible? How is it possible? No... this is impossible. I can't be wrong."
Now it was Su Donglou's turn to be surprised. He smiled and said, "Why not? Well! That's right. I really tried my best to win your trust. I killed that fake Long Pingzhang without hesitation. I took a risk and told you Tingxuan's identity. If you still don't believe me after all this, it's simply unjust."
"Humph! Hahaha..." Lu Fengyu suddenly laughed, and after a long while, he suddenly stopped laughing and looked at Su Donglou coldly. He said sarcastically, "I have been suspicious all my life. I have never trusted anyone except the prince. I have never had any friends. Why do you think I would trust you? Although these two things have earned you my trust, I still don't trust you enough to bring Hongluo and Luqi with me to Suzhou to enter Shenxianling. Don't be so self-righteous."
"Lüqi and Hongluo? Well, do you want them to come over to help?" Su Donglou raised his eyebrows. After being bullied for more than a year, he finally waited for this day when he could crush this cunning and poisonous snake and play with it to his heart's content, so he didn't mind saying a few more words to the other party.
"Since Duan Tingxuan has appeared and you have revealed your true colors, how could you possibly give Hongluo and Luqi a chance to appear? If they still have the possibility of taking action, do you think I would mention their names to remind you?"
When Lu Fengyu said this, his voice was somewhat lonely. Luqi Hongluo had been in the bamboo building, but had not shown up yet. I was afraid that she had been tricked by Su Donglou, and now she was not sure whether she was dead or alive.
"I'm really curious. You just said that it's impossible for you to trust me to this extent without any precautions just because of those two things. Then what is the reason? What makes you trust me to this extent?" Su Donglou looked at the sad and angry Lu Fengyu jokingly. No matter how he looked at him, he felt that this person was really pleasing to the eye at this moment.
"If it weren't for the fact that you had feelings for me, I would never have considered you my confidant in my life."
Lu Fengyu sneered, his clear eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were full of disdain, looking at the shocked Su Donglou, he smiled instead of getting angry: "What? You didn't expect it, did you? I had seen through your mind a long time ago. In addition, you did perform perfectly in those two things, so I was relieved to hand over my life to you. But I didn't expect that I was still one step behind, forgetting that in this world, many people regard wealth and glory as more important than love."
Su Donglou was truly shocked. He asked himself that no one could know what he was thinking. Even in front of Lu Fengyu, he tried hard to control himself and not reveal any flaws. However, he never expected that even so, his thoughts were still seen through by the other party. Such keen insight, how could he not be shocked.
The only person who was more shocked than Su Donglou was Duan Tingxuan. As for Su Nuannuan, she was just stunned at first, then she spread her hands and thought to herself, "I told you that Donglou was not right with Lu Fengyu, right? So what? Sure enough, I was right."
"Donglou, what he said...isn't true?"
In the silence, the young marquis finally asked, but saw Su Donglou looking at him calmly, nodded and said: "He is right, I do have feelings for him, Tingxuan, will you look down on me for this?"
"This is not something I look down upon, but something I absolutely cannot do. For a person like this, you... you know how despicable and insidious he is, you... well, in this world, homosexuality is not uncommon, just for fun, but if you fall in love with such a person... No, absolutely not. Not only can I not allow it, I think the Crown Prince and the Emperor will not agree either, so give up on this idea as soon as possible."
Su Donglou did not argue, but suddenly changed the subject: "The three brothers from Laoshan are coming back. Let's go in and talk. By the way, clean up this place and don't let them get suspicious."
This is indeed an important matter. Duan Tingxuan nodded, and watched Su Donglou holding Lu Fengyu hostage into the bamboo building. He and Su Nuannuan dragged Fenggu's body into the building. Because only the sword on the forehead was fatal, the bleeding was not much, so it was not difficult to cover up the traces of the smell, and it was done in a short time.
When they returned to the bamboo building, they saw Lu Fengyu sitting in a chair with a pale face, and Lu Qi Hong Luo was still unconscious. The two were in the teahouse when Su Donglou tampered with their tea. After entering the bamboo building, they found that something was wrong and fainted as soon as they practiced their Qi. Because the opportunity was rare and Lu Fengyu was just an ordinary scholar, he did not get the treatment of being drugged.
