Chapter 228



“Since His Majesty of the Southern Kingdom is so difficult to deal with, even if we send assassins, it will only be a waste of their lives.” The money shop owner frowned and said, “Given the current situation, the emperor’s martial arts skills must be unfathomable. Capturing him alive is even more difficult than killing him!”

Neither of them wanted to give up the 500 contribution points and the unknown reward.

Those sitting here are the most outstanding figures in the martial arts world. If they all give up, no one will be able to complete this mission.

At this moment, Xiao Su felt completely relieved.

Rewards? Nothing is more important than life!

She chimed in, "Actually, we can also win over other people and have them lead the charge. Once most of their men are dead, we can get more information about His Majesty of the Southern Kingdom."

At this moment, the three of them all looked at Xiao Su.

She truly lives up to her reputation as a heartless abandoned woman in the martial arts world.

This is no ordinary poison.

But what Xiao Su proposed was indeed a good plan for them.

After all, by sending insignificant people to their deaths, and once they're mostly dead, you don't even have to share the rewards with them.

Seeing the hint of attraction in their eyes, Xiao Su smiled gently beneath her veil.

As long as these people get together

She and His Majesty of the Southern Kingdom took precautions in advance.

It doesn't matter whether these people live or die, as long as she can survive.

Unexpectedly, the leader of the martial arts alliance shook his head: "This is not a good idea."

It didn't matter if others agreed with Xiao Su's suggestion, but the leader of the martial arts alliance was, after all, the master of the Jianghu, and still had to save face: "I have a new plan."

When Xiao Su heard that the leader of the martial arts alliance disagreed, her smile froze on her face.

She clenched her fists, wanting to say something.

But I still held back.

Those sitting here are all old foxes; if she shows even the slightest excitement or eagerness, they might see through her.

"Then, Alliance Leader, what is your proposal?" Xiao Su asked softly.

“We can start by targeting those close to His Majesty the Southern Kingdom.” The leader of the martial arts alliance revealed a meaningful smile: “As everyone knows, the Empress is incredibly beautiful, and His Majesty the Southern Kingdom and the Empress have a very close relationship. If… we capture the Empress of the Southern Kingdom and use her as leverage to force His Majesty to come to our designated location alone, do you think he will come?”

No one answered.

But everyone knows it will happen.

His Majesty of the Southern Kingdom was able to instantly kill three experts and lead an army that was half the size of the Eagle Kingdom to destroy the Eagle Kingdom. Such a person is definitely not someone who would be afraid of trouble.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Su was suddenly taken aback.

The hand clenched tightly inside the sleeve suddenly loosened little by little, clenching and loosening again, as if pondering and hesitating about something...

Under the veil,

A smile finally appeared on her face.

Her hand remained in a relaxed, extended position, no longer moving.

...

That evening,

Gu Mu then received a message from Xiao Su, saying that a group of people, led by the leader of the Jianghu Alliance, would gather the next day at the mansion that the leader of the Jianghu Alliance had bought in the Northern Frontier to discuss a plan to capture Gu Mu alive.

This message was conveyed by Xiao Su throwing a dart into Gu Mu's study.

She simply couldn't face Gu Mu.

Gu Mu took down the dart and looked at the letter in his hand.

Only then did he push open the study door and come out.

He could sense that Xiao Su was hiding on the roof of the study, but because she had almost died at Gu Mu's hands, she didn't dare to appear directly in front of him.

She feared that Gu Mu might suddenly change his mind, or that the information she conveyed might not satisfy him, leading him to kill her.

Nevertheless, she underestimated Gu Mu.

When she sneaked into the palace and arrived around the study, Gu Mu had already sensed Xiao Su's presence.

He sat on a chair in the garden and said calmly, "I want you to put a drug in their wine glasses tomorrow."

Although Gu Mu is very strong, it doesn't mean he's stupid. If something can be solved in the simplest way, he will never challenge the difficult mode.

Unless there is a huge benefit involved.

Xiao Su knew that Gu Mu was talking to her.

Hiding on the rooftop, Xiao Su gasped. She knew that His Majesty had finally discovered her presence: "But... the Alliance Leader is a very cautious person. This sleeping potion is not so easy to administer. If they find out, I will definitely die at their hands."

"Then we'll just make sure they don't find out." Gu Mu said without any emotion, "If you can't even handle this simple thing, you'll die by my hand, even if you don't die by theirs."

A wicked smile appeared on Gu Mu's face.

Since Xiao Su was so blind and dared to offend them, she should be prepared for the terrible consequences she will face today.

“But…” Xiao Su seemed to want to say something, but looking at the man sitting in the garden, she knew he… wouldn’t care about her life at all. Gritting her teeth, Xiao Su said, “Fine.”

"I look forward to your good results tomorrow."

Gu Mu's face was cold. He stood up and glanced at the roof.

That one glance sent a chill down Xiao Su's spine.

Gu Mu turned around and walked towards Kunning Palace.

It's late at night.

At this moment, Shen Ling arranged for Lu Ming to be next to Gu Mu, which was something he had already sensed.

Now, Shen Ling has almost no experts around her.

Although Gu Mu had already arranged for the sheepskin scroll to protect Shen Ling closely.

However, he still felt more at ease seeing it in person.

...

And at this very moment.

Shen Ling suddenly woke up from her dream.

She heard many footsteps coming from around the room.
