"Sis, I'll be fine." Cheng Guanyue tried his best to guarantee to Cheng Xiuhua.
"No!" Warmth, the Su Family is too vicious. If they really use poison darts on you when you're not paying attention, or even use poison, then they won't be able to do anything about it. " Cheng Xiuhua was originally very confident that Warm Mist would beat the inhumane Su Junji to death.
However, from the looks of it, each and every one of the Su Clan members was more shameless than the last.
If he could even scheme against his own siblings, then he would be an outsider, to say nothing of others.
"But if we give up on this challenge, Boss's reputation will suffer." Cheng Mingyuan said somewhat unwillingly.
If they knew that their master had given up this challenge, they would definitely feel warmth and fear Su Junji. Then, they would definitely no longer be willing to follow Warmth, and might even have to go to Su Junji's side. " Cheng Shenyong immediately followed up with Cheng Mingyuan's words.
"What?" This … This … Could it be that Su Guhan has even schemed this far? " Cheng Xiuhua felt that this was extremely unbelievable.
"Since he has already calculated every step, then he will naturally be able to calculate the next few steps as well." Cheng Mingkun had to admit that Su Guhan was a talent, but unfortunately, his thoughts were wrong, and his methods were sinister and ruthless.
Otherwise, he would definitely be a pillar of a nation, a talent at the level of a general.
"There's no need to speak any further, I will definitely accept Su Junji's challenge." She hated it when people schemed against her and deceived her.
Now, she was led into a trap by Su Guhan.
He was truly infuriated.
Seeing that Cheng Guan Yue's decision was set, and that they were unable to change her decision, Cheng Xiuhua was unable to say anything. She could only hope that in the competition three days later, Cheng Guan Yue would be able to achieve complete victory, and would not be harmed in the slightest.
It was just that no one expected that Su Junji's life and death competition would actually spread throughout the entire capital on the second day.
Needless to say, he knew who was taking the walk.
"Boss, this Su Clan is too evil. I wish I could take a blade and charge in and kill them all." Yesterday, when Cheng Weiwu came back from the Academy and heard that his father Cheng Fengyang was causing trouble, he rushed over to meet Cheng Fengyang. He hoped that he could calm down and not anger his grandfather again, or else Cheng Fengyang would make him scram out of the capital.
That was why he missed the opportunity to discuss with Cheng Xiuhua and the others.
However, he truly felt that there was something wrong with the Su Clan. Why did they have to scheme against him?
Who had provoked them and recruited them? There was no reason at all.
"Xiao Wu, don't even mention you, even we were about to make a move, but unfortunately, our martial arts are too weak, and we are unable to block Su Junji's one and a half moves." When Cheng Mingyi and Cheng Mingyuan talked about him, they felt that their faces were extremely red. They were one or two years older than Su Junji, but they weren't even half his age.
"Yeah, even if the three of you were to rush in, it wouldn't be enough to practice." Cheng Xiuhua pointed to Cheng Weiwu and the other two, and shook her head.
Cheng Guanyue was listening at the side, but there was no change in his expression.
Although she was furious that Su Guhan had schemed against her, she would not show it on her face.
After all, it was a given who won and who lost. No one could guess what would happen on the day of the martial competition.
"I heard that the Su Clan has already begun to take action?" Eldest Princess asked as she dipped a brush into thick ink and wrote a few large words on the xuan paper.
"Yes, Your Highness, the Su Family is indeed taking action." Eunuch Xi replied somewhat secretively.
"Then do you think she'll be able to escape this time?" Eldest Princess waved her brush in one breath, and asked without raising her head.
"He probably won't be able to escape, after all, Su Sanlang is famous for his ruthlessness, furthermore, that Su Guhan is definitely a powerful being." When Eunuch Xi said this, his face showed a little happiness.
"Of course this old fox of the Su Clan will nurture his disciples. However, his heart is growing stronger and stronger. I'm afraid he won't be able to keep them any longer." The Su Clan's current might had already overshadowed many of the imperial court's officials.
If they allowed the Su Clan to continue growing stronger, then this great celebration might even fall into their hands sooner or later.
Therefore, even Eldest Princess himself was wary of the Su Family.
"Your Highness is worried. No matter how much this old fox of the Su Clan counts, he is still an old man. With his death, the Su Clan will probably be disbanded!" Eunuch Xi lowered his eyes and said softly.
"You speak very lightly, but this old fox from the Su Clan is definitely not as simple as you think he is. Perhaps he has already nurtured his own successor." Eldest Princess was not afraid of anyone, the only thing she was afraid of was this old cunning fox of the Su Family.
Sometimes, if they tricked him until he was at a disadvantage, he wouldn't even know what happened. Thus, when the old cunning fox from the Su Clan took action, not many people would refuse to admit defeat.
"According to Your Highness, who would be the successor to the Su Clan?!" Eunuch Xi was full of doubts, as if he really wanted to know who this sly old fox from the Su Family had groomed as his successor.
"Then you should ask that old fox from the Su Clan. But I'm guessing that his successor is definitely not the Su Clan's Dachang, nor is it the Su Clan's Erlang, much less the Su Clan's Sanlang." When Eldest Princess said that, she immediately stopped writing, and on the huge piece of paper, the word "Die" appeared.
She didn't know what she was predicting, or what she was guessing, or who she wanted to kill.
At night, a light breeze blew and the starry sky glittered.
When he raised his head, he could feel a boundless sense of comfort.
"Second Young Master, it's time to rest. It's too cold today, and your body's not well. I'm afraid you won't be able to take it." A delicate and somewhat immature little errand boy stood behind Su Guhan and reminded him.
"There's no need. You can leave first and leave me alone for a while." Su Guhan looked at the bright and wide sky, he did not know what he was thinking, but after listening to the little errand boy's words, he moved his lips mechanically, without any hint of blood.
"Yes, Second Young Master." The little errand boy knew exactly what kind of person the second young master was, so he did not dare to say anything more. He only needed to give a brief reminder, or else the consequences would not be something he could bear.
"You're here?" After the little errand boy's figure completely disappeared, Su Guhan suddenly spoke as he looked at a dark corner where no one could be seen.
Hearing that, Cheng Guan Yue immediately walked out from the corner, and stared at Su Guhan with a pair of clear and bright eyes.
"Won't you come in and have a seat? This is my study, and other than a small bookkeeper, there's no one else here. " Su Guhan didn't seem to be surprised at all when he saw Cheng Guanyue, as if he had already predicted her arrival.
He even started a conversation with Cheng Guanyue on his own and spoke very familiarly to her, not being the least bit unfamiliar with her at all.
