Dai Lingyuan and Yu Jing'er stood below, watching the chair turn around, and were especially shocked when their gaze fell on the person sitting on it.
no.
Why is it Murong Jin?
Murong Jin held a cup of tea in her hand, the aroma of which filled the air, as she looked at the two people below with shocked expressions.
"oh?"
Dai Lingyuan glanced around to confirm that this was indeed the Lingjiu Pavilion, then couldn't help but ask Murong Jin, "Wait, what are you doing here?"
Murong Jin grunted, his expression indifferent, even somewhat bewildered. "I am the head of the Lingjiu Pavilion, why can't I be here?"
Dai Lingyuan fell silent, and Yu Jing'er was stunned.
"Brother! Brother! Brother, brother!"
Hearing the cheerful sound, Dai Lingyuan looked over and saw Huo Yun'er hanging in the air.
I couldn't help but curse.
Murong Jin also looked up and asked, "Why are you climbing so high?"
Huo Yun'er: "Looking at the stars, I have to say, the Lingjiu Pavilion is built so high, it must have cost a lot of money."
A few days ago.
Huo Yun'er looked at Murong Jin, who had just left the house, and asked, "Brother, where are you going?"
Murong Jin: "Let's go check out the Lingjiu Pavilion."
"I want to go too."
A glint of light shone in Huo Yun'er's eyes, and her voice carried a hint of mystery, "Or, if you let me come along, there might be an unexpected surprise."
Murong Jin looked somewhat puzzled and said, "Oh, so confident?"
Huo Yun'er grinned, "Of course."
So, Murong Jin took Huo Yun'er to another part of Lingjiu Pavilion's territory.
When Huo Yun'er arrived, she saw Jin Jiu and the others fighting with the people from Lingjiu Pavilion.
"I'll go, I'll go help too."
Murong Jin stopped her instead, saying, "No rush, let's wait for someone to come out."
The two waited in the distance, and the last thing they saw was Yi Liu coming out.
"Sir, since you've already walked right into our trap, why not make things a little better for both sides? Tell us the whole story, and I won't kill you."
The man in black robes stood there. "Is that so? But if I tell you the truth, even if you don't kill me, someone else will."
"In comparison, you only have a dozen or so people, while I have experts from the Lingjiu Pavilion. It's not certain who will die."
Negotiations failed, and the two sides started fighting.
Yi Liu glanced at Jin Jiu, and the two of them, along with soldiers and guards, captured the man in black.
Immediately afterward, when Yi Liu suddenly felt a pain in his chest and blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, a hint of tension flashed in Jin Jiu's eyes, and then her expression changed.
It's the venomous insects taking effect.
The man in black robes smiled as he watched them kneel on one knee to support their bodies.
"As a member of the Spirit Moxibustion Pavilion, how could you forget that you were poisoned with Gu worms when you first entered?"
"I'll make you wish you were dead, and I'm not kidding."
"ah."
Yi Liu suddenly cried out, and the man in black robes stood in front of him, his voice dark and cold, "Are you in pain? Are you suffering?"
"The Gu worms were created by me, and there is no antidote."
"Besides the Pavilion Master, I'm the only one who can control this."
Just as Jin Jiu watched the sword about to stab down, her pupils contracted sharply. Just as she was about to speak, the sword was suddenly knocked away by a sharp blade.
A rustling sound rang out, and everyone looked towards the people approaching from a distance.
A gentle young man, dressed in a white robe, sat in a nanmu wood wheelchair.
"Your Excellency, those who kill me need my permission."
The deep voice, though seemingly gentle, drifted across the desolate wilderness.
"Who are you?"
Yi Liu and Jin Jiu fell to the ground, with the other guards behind them. They had stepped back and stopped fighting when Yi Liu and Jin Jiu were in trouble.
Murong Jin chuckled twice, her sharp gaze falling on the man in black robes, her lips slightly parted, "Murong Jin."
"Oh? So it's the Regent. You've come here to see how your men die in front of you?"
The man in the black robe looked at the person in the wheelchair, then at the woman beside him.
Two people dare to challenge him?
Murong Jin stared at him, naturally not missing the little bug flying towards her.
He reached out and grabbed it, then picked it up and looked at it a couple more times.
Is this little thing the one who controlled Yi Liu and the others, making them susceptible to poisoning at any moment?
The man in black robes was taken aback. "You?"
"Kill me if you will, but I only want to know the truth before I die."
After everyone was surrounded, the man in black robes glanced around and confirmed that they were now safe and capable of killing Murong Jin.
"It won't hurt to tell you."
"It's all for the sake of the Evil Eye."
"The Evil Eye of Jinling Kingdom may not seem particularly dazzling, but if given to someone who has recently died or is in a state of semi-death and unable to wake up, they can be restored to normal after consuming the Evil Eye."
"Moreover, this thing is a great tonic for those who practice evil arts, as it can enhance their abilities."
"The Western Regions are currently without a leader. The Golden Ridge Kingdom was destroyed many years ago. For the Western Regions, possessing this Evil Eye would allow them to rule the entire region."
"Oh, right, there's also that small country that frequently harasses Da Cheng; some people there want to seize this thing too."
There was an evil eye in the Western Regions before, but later the great shaman discovered its effects and cured his wife, who had turned into a living dead.
As a result, the wizards of the Western Regions all understood the function of the Evil Eye and wanted to obtain it, leading to a large number of people going to the Golden Ridge Kingdom.
However, the Jinling Kingdom was destroyed too early, and the Evil Eye no longer exists.
Currently, only one country possesses the Evil Eye: Da Cheng.
Therefore, the investigation revealed that the diplomat who took the Evil Eye back then was Lin Hexi.
If they couldn't find anything and couldn't reveal their identities, then naturally they would kill the entire Lin family.
Unexpectedly, Lingjiu Pavilion and Ruijing Sect were discovered so quickly.
Murong Jin: "I would like to ask, who is the wizard who is with you?"
The man in black chuckled, "Hahaha, that person is nothing but a cripple. The former Grand Wizard of Jinling Kingdom wasn't very capable either; I always had to solve the Gu worm problem for him."
The former Grand Wizard of Jinling Kingdom.
Um.
Murong Jin already knows her identity.
He looked at the black-robed figure and the Lingjiu Pavilion assassins who were still alive, and said, "Thank you for informing me."
Just as the man in black robes was about to move, he suddenly became unable to move.
Because there was a person standing in front of him, and his neck had already been slashed by a sharp blade.
Murong Jin lowered her head and whispered in his ear, her voice like a ghost, "Then, you should go down and meet the King of Hell too."
"you……"
With a snap, Murong Jin severed the man's head. She looked at the other Lingjiu Pavilion assassins, holding only a small dagger in her hand, the one she often used to peel fruit.
The voice was arrogant, "So, you're all coming along too?"
