Chapter 871 - 872. Wei Yuanwei is always his weaknessWei Yuanwei will always be his fatal weakness, but this weakness needs to be used in the right place. I just want to tell you that everything will be carried out according to your and Mu Jin"s plans, and when the time comes, it will be the time of Mu Jin"s death! That person"s voice was still low, cold, and without any emotion.
"Then what about the poison in my body?"
With that said, the man pointed to the table beside Mu Zhi.
"This is the antidote!"
Mu Zhi immediately took the bottle that was placed on the table, and when he looked over, the person had already disappeared.
Everything was as Mu Zhi and Mu Jin had expected. If Prince An and Prince Lu failed to kill Mu Zhi, they would force the two of them to take the risk and start a coup within three months.
The more they were forced into a corner, the more obvious it became.
When the morning court arrived, Prince An and Prince Lu had already impatiently started playing, saying that they would lead their troops to attack Northern Desert State.
Mu Zhi was very clear that it was fake that they attacked the Northern Desert State, and taking this opportunity to launch a coup was real.
It seemed like they really couldn"t wait any longer.
The wide and comfortable carriage pa.s.sed by the stone road, and the clatter of the horse hooves on the stone floor seemed to obscure the bustling sounds of the market.
The carriage stopped right in front of the Jiangnan Courtyard, but Cang Chu who was sitting inside did not have any intentions of alighting. After a while, he opened a corner of the curtain.
There were many people coming and going around and it was very noisy, but Cang Chu felt that everything was abnormal, from the moment he left the palace, it had become abnormal.
"Young master." An a.s.sa.s.sin"s voice came from outside the carriage, "Those people have followed us all the way. Do you want us to take care of them?"
Cang Chu"s beautiful eyes quickly swept outside the window, and then quickly put down the curtain: "They are all deathsworn, there is no need to fight with them head on."
Just as Cang Chu finished speaking, the red lacquer door of the Jiangnan Courtyard was opened, and the soft voice of the Su"er was immediately heard.
"Master, this Su"er wants to go to the jewelry store last time to have a look. This Su"er likes all the jewelry, but unfortunately, my mother was sent back home again!"
Cang Chu frowned, he raised the carriage"s curtain again, and saw that Mu Jin, who had already changed into his original appearance, was walking out while holding onto Su"er"s hand.
Before even stepping across the threshold, Mu Jin"s expression instantly changed, and he grabbed onto Su"er"s hand, no longer moving forward.
Su"er turned her head and looked at Mu Jin with suspicion. She thought that it was because Mu Jin wasn"t willing to go, so he started to act cute. It"s not like Su"er doesn"t want to pay for it. Su"er has a lot of money, and Su"er also wants to pick out a few pretty pieces of jewelry for Mother! "
Mu Jin immediately squatted down and hugged Su"er. Without bothering to say anything, he turned around and was about to carry Su"er into the house.
However, the Death Soldiers had already moved out.
"Pa!" A sharp blade suddenly pierced towards Mu Jin"s back. Mu Jin dodged and that blade heavily embedded itself into the red lacquer door. Clang!
The dull sound, as well as the afterglow of the setting sun, shone onto the blade that flickered with cold light. The cold light it emitted instantly caused Su"er to be dumbfounded as she cried out, "Mother!"
"You guys go in first. I"ll take care of it here!" Cang Chu suddenly rushed out of the carriage and arrived in front of Mu Jin. Unknowingly, he already had a flexible sword in his hand.
"These people are Death Soldiers, you can"t deal with them by yourself!" Mu Jin looked around, and in the next moment, the Death Soldiers surrounded them.
At this moment, the dark guards hiding in the pavilion also rushed out.
The biggest difference between Death Soldiers and Dark Guards is that they don"t care about their lives.
In terms of training, the Death Soldiers were even more brutal than the Dark Guard, and many Death Soldiers took a special medicine when they were on mission. Although it had a huge side effect, it made them extremely excited and unable to feel any pain, and if they wanted to stop, the only way was to kill them!
Su"er held Mu Jin"s neck tightly with both of his hands. His pitch black eyes looked at a Dark Guard wearing a silver mask who cut the Death Soldier twice, but the Death Soldier acted as if he didn"t feel anything. A blade pierced the Dark Guard"s chest, and instantly, fresh blood sprayed onto the Death Soldier"s face.
Su"er was so scared that she covered her eyes.
Cang Chu and Mu Jin looked at each other, then their mouths revealed a faint smile.
Prince An and Prince Lu"s reactions were too excessive, they had actually sent their deathsworn to kill them.
"Is this in your plan?" Cang Chu turned his head to look at Mu Jin.
Those Death Soldiers had obviously taken two to three times the usual amount of medicine, otherwise they wouldn"t have been hacked so many times without feeling anything at all.
"No!" Mu Jin hugged Su"er tightly with one hand and hid her other hand behind her back. She spoke honestly as she looked at the fearsome Death Soldier in front of him.
"If that"s the case, then the death toll at the Clear Water Pavilion will be very heavy. When we kill them all, our bodies will probably fall apart!" Blood splattered in Cang Chu"s direction. Cang Chu did not even blink as he tilted his head, avoiding the blood drop that could be ignored.
"I mean, I didn"t think they"d send death warriors!" Mu Jin said calmly, "This way, they are not wise at all!"
After saying that, Mu Jin moved closer to Cang Chu and whispered into his ear: "Give it a try and snap your fingers at the sky, see if there will be any miracles!"
When Mu Jin said this, he was laughing, and his stomach was full of dark thoughts.
When Cang Chu heard this, he also laughed out loud. Facing these Death Soldiers that almost charged towards him, he didn"t have the slightest of worries.
Following that, he raised his hand and a clear sound rang out amidst the killing.
In less than a few seconds, another group of people appeared on the rooftop and wall. There weren"t many of them, only five or six. They were also not carrying swords, but they were holding containers with things inside.
The men reached into the container and grabbed a handful of yellow powder, scattering it into the air.
When the yellow powder fell on the bodies of the Death Soldiers, they seemed to have been possessed by some sort of magic. Their expressions started to change, and eventually, their bodies became stiff and their movements became slow.
The Dark Guard, who was on the verge of collapsing, seized this opportunity to immediately launch a counterattack.
"Su"er, Master will take you to the jewelry store. Are you still going?" Mu Jin looked at this b.l.o.o.d.y scene indifferently, lowered his head slightly, and whispered into Su"er"s ear in a gentle tone.
Su"er raised her eyes, panic and fear still flickering in the depths of her pitch-black eyes. However, when she saw Mu Jin"s calm and yet warm face, all of that panic and fear disappeared, and she vigorously nodded her head after that.
