C188 Bonfire Dinner(3)

Gu Qing Li's fingers were flashing with silver needles from time to time. However, the night was hazy and the flames were dancing in the air. No one had noticed the movements of her hidden weapons.

Only when Princess Lan Xun happened to have her back to the enemy did she suddenly realize that an enemy's move had missed her by a hair's breadth. The blade had missed her and fell to the ground.

Princess Lan Xun was startled. She thought to herself, why is she secretly helping me? Then, he recalled that he was an honored guest from the west, after all. If something went wrong, no one would be able to bear the responsibility. When she thought of this, she immediately felt relieved. She only gave Gu Qing Li a cold look, not much gratitude.

Naturally, Gu Qingli didn't miss her cold, arrogant expression. She smiled inwardly and didn't bother with her. Thinking of the cliff's edge, she hurriedly rushed forward, swinging her whip in an attempt to restrain herself. She understood that although this headstrong and headstrong princess had a bad temper and looked down on others, she was actually not a sinister person.

Although the dancers and musicians who had launched the surprise attack were powerful, and the princes were all experts, coupled with the fact that the number of guards were several times that of their own, the assassins were finally all taken down.

Gu Qingli looked at the two dancers tumbling in front of her. In the end, they were forced to the ground by the four bodyguards as well.

"Dead!" Suddenly, cries of alarm rang out, followed by a series of similar shouts. The dancers and musicians who were caught committed suicide without exception, looking exactly the same. Their eyes were all rolling up and their faces distorted.

"What's going on?" Even though he wasn't hit by the arrow, a small piece of his skin was suddenly burned by the flames from the arrow. Seeing that all the clues had been cut off, he couldn't help but feel the rage in his heart, causing him to straighten the sword in his hand. Facing the dead prisoner in front of him, he slashed several times with his sword, causing the corpse to be badly mutilated.

"Third Imperial Brother, this hunt and the safety of the palace guards were all arranged by you. Something like this happened …" On the other hand, Xiao Yijin didn't really mind the fact that all the assassins had died. His body was completely fine, and when he saw Xiao Yimo's embarrassment and anger, he actually started to gloat in his heart.

The defenses of the palace guards were too low. A random person had snuck into the palace and nearly injured Princess Lan Xun … When these matters were reported to royal father, there was no way that Xiao Yi Mo would not be held responsible. The anger of Xiao Yi Jin was gone, and he was secretly happy that he had encountered this assassination attempt.

As the assassins died one by one, everyone's attention was focused on the two dancers in front of Gu Qing Li.

They were the only ones left alive.

They were still tenaciously twisting their bodies, but if one looked closely, they would see that they were not struggling, but were convulsing in twisted pain. Their faces and bodies were twisted into incredible angles, and their eyes were rolling up, looking somewhat similar to those of the assassins who had died, but since everyone else was dead, why couldn't either of them commit suicide?

Princess Lan Xun walked over and glanced at the two men's twisted expressions before turning her face away in disgust. Suddenly, she remembered that they had been knocked down by Gu Qing Li. She stared at them and said, "Did you do something to them?"

Gu Qingli lightly said, "I just beat them." Could it be that I have to show mercy when they try to kill me? "

"Then how did they become like this?" Princess Lan Xun didn't believe him.

Gu Qingli smiled and replied with a question, "The princess' tone sounds like she's questioning me for them. Could it be that the princess knows them?"

"..." Of course not, don't slander people. "

"Isn't that good enough?" Gu Qingli took a step forward, bent down, and quickly patted one of the women a few times. Seeing that she had strangely calmed down, she looked at Gu Qingli with a dull expression, no longer twisting her body.

No one noticed that when the woman's eyes turned white, there were a few black lines moving within them. With her quietness, it was as if the lines drilled into her eyes and quickly disappeared.

As if he had found a precious treasure, Xiao Yi Mo walked over quickly and shouted at the woman, "Who are you? Who sent you here to assassinate them? "

The woman suddenly laughed in a weird way. She was drooling. Although her body was still motionless, it seemed as if she had gone into a daze.

"What is this?" Xiao Yimo hurriedly looked at the other woman. Gu Qingli was doing the same to calm her down.

However, that girl's situation was exactly the same. She seemed to be in a daze, and only knew how to laugh foolishly.

"What did you do to them?" Xiao Yimo glared furiously at Gu Qingli.

"I only used a unique method to point out their hidden acupoints. I can control their bodies, but it will not affect their intelligence." "Gu Qingli was calm and composed, not even looking at him." Looking at their expressions, it should be the poison in their bodies acting up. As for what it is, we should take them back to the palace and ask the imperial physicians to identify it. "

Xiao Yi Mo gritted his teeth as he looked at her, but he couldn't find a loophole in her words. He only patted it a few times, but it really did look like it was the same as poking a acupoint.

"Take it!" Xiao Yi Mo suddenly thought of something and said, "Quickly, go over there and search. See if there are any survivors from the fire arrowheads!"

At the same time, he asked in surprise, "Are there guards there tonight?" He remembered that when he had assigned night guards for the night shift, the jungle was not part of their range. After all, they were outside of the steel wire, so what they needed to guard against was the wild beasts. How could they have thought of such a large-scale assassination?

"Reporting to Prince Mu, you haven't arranged for any guards to stand guard over there." The guard captain of the palace and the personal guard captain of the Dongyuan Imperial Guard that accompanied him replied in surprise.

That... Who had handled the archers for them? Upon thinking of this question, Xiao Yi Mo's expression gradually turned even uglier. Could it be that there was a third force in this palace? Even though it seemed like he had helped them, he couldn't be sure that they were friends and not enemies.

Not long after, the guards that had been sent to bring out some corpses came out one after another. They were all in different states from the dancers. They were all injured to the point of death. Only a few of them had even killed themselves.

On his forehead, without exception, was the word "Dark Pavilion".

The influence of the martial arts world, Dark Pavilion.

The famous number one organization in the martial arts world was like a dragon that could not be seen, and no one knew the details of the Dark Pavilion.

The only method they had was to leave these two words on the foreheads of the people they killed. As time passed, the expressions of the people in the martial world changed and they called the hidden powers the "Dark Pavilion".

Xiao Yi Mo's entire body trembled. Even his fingertips were trembling.

It was just a hunt, yet it had attracted an unexpected assassination, and even attracted the Dark Pavilion?!
