The high-ranking officer cupped his hands towards them and respectfully retreated. Afterwards, he brought his men to carry away the corpses of the black-clothed men.
"Are those men in black related to what you said in your letter?"
Entering the inn, Yan Jue could not resist and asked Yan Yuan.
Yan Yuan nodded, pointed to Liu Ruo Qing and said: "We are here to kill him."
It was only then that Yan Jue noticed the peerlessly beautiful man standing beside his brother. If he was a woman with such a face, how many men would he have to fall for?
Yan Jue did not voice out his thoughts, he only looked at Liu Ruo Qing and his heart trembled, thinking that this young man gave him a very familiar feeling, but he could not think of who it was.
Seeing that he was staring at her and sizing her up, Liu Ruo Qing gave him a warm smile. This feeling of reuniting with her after a long time had made her very happy.
Yan Jue asked casually: "Who is he?"
Liu Ruo Qing, "..."
Do you need to be so casual? After all, she had a peerless beauty now, okay?
Couldn't he give her a little respect?
Qin Xuan pressed a fist to his lips, coughed lightly twice, and said: "Xiao Niu is my personal bodyguard."
It had been a long time since Qin Xuan called her that, and Liu Ruo Qing was still not used to it. But at the moment, she could not change her mind and only glared at Qin Xuan, but Qin Xuan did not look at her and pretended not to notice her unhappy gaze.
"Your guards?"
Yan Jue looked at Liu Ruo Qing, and then looked at Qin Xuan, "They didn't kill you, but instead killed your bodyguards?"
He once again looked at Liu Ruo Qing with suspicion, "Jealous that you're too good-looking?"
The corner of Liu Ruo Qing's mouth twitched. This Eighth Brother, in this kind of solemn occasion, could you not be so funny?
"Cough, cough …"
She let out two awkward coughs and pulled the corner of her mouth towards Yan Jue, saying, "Reporting to the Eighth Prince, it's naturally not because I'm good-looking."
Seeing the interaction between Yan Jue and the "Bull Guard", Yan Yuan's heart started to ache uncontrollably.
"Those monsters under Ye Man are afraid of the Bull Guard, so Ye Man naturally cannot keep him here."
He explained with a dark face, looking at Yan Jue with an inexplicable feeling that he was inconvenient to look at.
Yan Jue didn't know that he had come all the way to look for his brother, and in the end, he was even looked down upon by his brother. Hearing Yan Yuan's words, the smile on his face disappeared immediately.
Looking at Qin Xuan, he said: "Does your little guard even have this ability?"
Qin Xuan smiled faintly, his gaze looking at Yan Yuan who had a displeased expression, and the expression in his eyes slowly became meaningful, "My Xiao Niu has a lot of abilities."
Although Qin Xuan's words sounded normal, Liu Ruo Qing felt that there was something hidden behind his words. She looked at him for a long time with a confused expression.
Seeing the interaction between Qin Xuan and his gaze, that "winking at each other" look, made Yan Yuan's heart even more uncomfortable.
On the other side, when Ye Man found out that the killer that was bought for a huge sum of money had actually died in the hands of Qin Xuan and the others, he was instantly enraged and slapped his subordinates in front of him.
"Useless thing, that's all the assassins in night gate have?"
The number one assassination organization in the world, they couldn't even kill a young man, yet they were killed instead. They were simply trash.
That subordinate felt wronged, covering his buzzing ears, but did not dare to voice his anger, "Senior Magus, the price offered by the night gate is too high, we can't even hire the tenth ranked assassin with our money."
He looked at Ye Man's livid face and explained: "They wanted the night gate to send out the top ten assassins, but they offered a price of five hundred thousand gold, and even paid it off in full. This subordinate does not have that much money, so I gave it all to them.
Although he came from night gate and his skills weren't too bad, if he wanted to kill someone in front of them, it wouldn't be that easy.
Let's not talk about the fact that the young man's martial arts weren't weak, coupled with the fact that Qin Xuan and his servant and the Easternum were by his side, how could the martial arts of these people be easy to deal with?
Previously, when Qin Xuan's internal injuries had not healed, they were able to barely hold onto Qin Xuan. Now that Qin Xuan's injuries were mostly healed, it was even more difficult to deal with him.
What was even more unexpected was that another group of experts had appeared. None of those experts were something they could deal with.
Now, if he wanted to kill that young man, he really couldn't do it without the help of the top ten assassins of the night gate.
"Five hundred thousand gold?" Why don't they just snatch it! "
Ye Man was annoyed. How could someone like him, who came from a land Magus background, have that much money? It was the tens of thousands of gold that he had on him that was given to him by Ren Dao Yuan before.
In order to kill his nemesis, he had spent all of his tens of thousands of silver to buy a killer, but in the end, the night gate had only sent out a few pieces of trash.
"How preposterous!"
His subordinate didn't dare to reply. So what if the other party was bullying too much? If you can't afford it, then don't think about him.
"Senior Magus, how about …" Tell the prime minister about it? "
"Scram!" Get the hell out of here! "
If one were to mention these people following Ye Man for the first time and seeing how he dressed up like a fairy and the monsters that came out of his hands, these subordinates still felt that Ye Man was an extraordinary person.
Now that he had been by his side for so long, he knew that besides creating those monsters, this person was also just a mysterious master. Even his eyes, which didn't have any whites in them, didn't seem that scary anymore.
However, they still had monsters in their hands that would kill without blinking. Naturally, they did not dare to offend him.
"Yes, this little one will take his leave."
In the tavern in Huiyang City, Yan Yuan and a few others had gathered together. An urgent letter had appeared in Yan Jue's hands early in the morning, "It's Sixth Brother's letter."
As Yan Jue spoke, he opened the letter. The contents of the letter were related to the few boxes of dowry in Grand Preceptor Pang Palace.
After reading the letter, Yan Jue's expression became somewhat ugly.
"What did Sixth Brother say?"
Yan Yuan frowned and asked.
Yan Jue handed the letter over to Yan Yuan, then said: "The dowry boxes, are filled with white worms."
"White bugs?"
Qin Xuan also raised his eyebrows, and as he stood at the side, he thought about how the chest was filled with bugs and couldn't help but feel goosebumps all over his body.
"Why did the Grand Preceptor Pang transport so many bugs to the Grand Preceptor's estate?"
Qin Xuan frowned and muttered.
None of them replied. Grand Preceptor Pang's way of sending the bugs into the Grand Preceptor's estate was obviously very important.
White bugs...
A word suddenly flashed across Liu Ruo Qing's mind, and she subconsciously blurted out, "Gu worm."
The moment she said that, everyone in the room turned to look at her.
"Gu worm?"
Yan Yuan looked at her and said, "Are you saying that those are the parasites?"
