C77

The pitch-black curtain of night shrouded the earth, and the pure white moonlight slowly sprinkled down in the air. It was originally a peaceful and harmonious scene, but it carried with it the feeling of a storm.

The few shadows walked through the inn's corridor one after the other. Looking at the tightly shut rooms on both sides, it was clear that they didn't notice anything amiss.

"Boss, is the person Master wants us to find really in this inn?" From the darkness, a voice that had been deliberately suppressed could be heard.

"The report from the scouts shouldn't be wrong. The Ke Yuehua must be in this inn." Another hoarse and unpleasant sound rang out. So it turned out that these two were the assassins sent by Ke Zheng to track Ke Yuehua.

It had been many days since Ke Yuehua had departed. In the past, if she had gone out on a mission, Ke Zheng would definitely be at ease, because at that time, Ke Yuehua had been obedient and obedient. It could be said that it was completely obedient to her, but now, it was different.

Since this Shi Jinchen was able to ignore his own safety and head to the broken sword cliff to save Xiao Sui, then perhaps he has some unfathomable thoughts about Xiao Sui. Furthermore, Yue Hua had stayed by his side for a long time.

He thought about it and felt that it wasn't right. Seeing that he was doing this, the Qin Yu beside him used the reason of his master's worry sharing to send his men to monitor the Keshi duo. This surveillance caused him to feel that something was amiss. This Ke Yuehua had followed Shi Jinchen to sightsee all the way, and it didn't have the slightest intention of attacking. How could this not make him jealous? However, since he couldn't leave the cliff easily, he sent a few more capable subordinates to follow the two of them all the way to the south. He repeatedly warned them that if Ke Yuehua did not act soon, they would have to lend him a helping hand. This was an opportunity for the two of them to assassinate the Shi Jinchen.

The two of them were also very sincere. After hearing their master's words, they picked a dark and windy night and sneaked into the "My Inn".

After the incense stick in their hands faded away, the two of them emerged from stealth. This incense was colourless and tasteless, and was a medicine specially made by the broken sword cliff. Even for those with profound strength, it would not take more than half a second. If this person was alert and noticed that it was impossible to hold his breath, it would be useless. This was because not only could this medicine be breathed in by a person, but once it was touched by a person's skin, it would immediately turn into a dewy liquid. It could be said to be extremely powerful.

When he thought about how the assassinated target had been killed in his dreams, he couldn't even utter a sound of alarm, much less be detected by others. Until the effects of the drug wore off, it was too late, he had been dead for a long time, and the murderer had long since escaped.

Because the two of them had consumed the antidotes beforehand, they were not affected by the mist. Master allowed them to kill without alerting them, so tonight, they had only interrupted one of the participants to take away one of his life, and once they had succeeded, they would quickly leave.

The corridor was quiet, and only the snoring of the guests could be heard from time to time. It seemed that he was sound asleep. The two of them arrived in front of Shi Jinchen's room and quietly pushed open the door. The old gatekeeper let out an ear-piercing creaking sound as he pushed open the door, but no one heard it.

The two of them wanted to slowly get closer, but before they could do so, the door suddenly opened and a pitch-black object flew into the room. The two of them were shocked as they asked, "Who?!"

"Meow ~" That pitch-black thing nimbly jumped onto the wooden table in front of him. It turned out to be a completely black kitten, and the kitten leisurely licked its front paw, as if it wasn't afraid of the two in front of it. The silver moonlight outside the window shone on its dark green eyes, making it seem even weirder in the darkness.

The two of them looked at the black cat that was staring at them and felt bewildered. Logically speaking, the cat should have been captivated by the scent of the black cat. Why did it appear in the guest room as if nothing had happened?

"Leave the cat alone." The black-clothed man who was walking in front suppressed his words, "It's better to quickly take this Fourth Prince's life, so that it won't cause too much trouble!" The two of them no longer cared about the black cat on the table, and they got closer and closer to the Shi Jinchen that was soundly asleep on the bed.

Right at that moment, a ray of silver light suddenly shot through the half-open window. Both of them were startled. Looking at the concealed weapon that poked like the head of the bed, it turned out to be an ordinary wooden chopstick. Someone was actually using chopsticks as a concealed weapon, and the chopsticks were as sharp as wood. Could it be that this person had this kind of strength, that he was in the same boat as them?!

"Aiyaya, I really didn't expect this. It's rare to be staying in a small inn, but I actually encountered such a thing." A young man's voice suddenly sounded out from the window.

Under the moonlight, the man's figure was thin and his facial features were handsome. The corner of his mouth curled up into a playful smile. He looked at the two of them slightly tilting their heads, exuding an unruly air. His right arm was slightly curled up, as if he was holding something.

"Eh? Still not leaving? " The man slightly frowned as he looked at the two of them, seemingly somewhat distressed. Thus, he threw out another three items. The two of them only heard the sound of wind in their ears. Then, they turned around and saw that there were actually three wooden chopsticks, and each of them had been cut into three pieces! From the looks of it, this person's martial arts were above theirs. Such a thorny opponent, it seemed like he would not be able to complete his mission today. Qing Shan was not afraid of being left without firewood.

"Little ball of coal, come here." Seeing that the two of them had left, the man called out to them softly. Then, the kitten on the table mewled and jumped into his embrace. "Mi?" It curiously moved its fluffy head closer to the uninvited guest, and with a moan, the uninvited guest seemed to be slightly unwell. Thus, it became even more curious, and if the man had not intentionally stopped it, it was afraid that its head would have burrowed into the uninvited guest's bosom.

"You little pervert." The man sneered, and then slowly let go of his right arm. Only then did the figure of a woman in red be completely revealed.

This woman in red was a Ke Yuehua, and because she was a top assassin of the broken sword cliff in the first place, her instincts were naturally more acute than normal. After sensing that something was wrong, she wanted to go next door to look for the Shi Jinchen, but even if there was a poison antidote given to her in the late autumn, the antidote would still be effective against all sorts of poisons.

Although she could hold on longer than an ordinary person, it was still very uncomfortable. Just as she was about to fall down in a daze, she fell into a warm embrace. She was alert and wanted to struggle free, but her body was too weak. She could only hear the chuckle of the man above her head, and then she was plunged into darkness.
