910 Paper Figure
What right did they have to charge into battle for Li Nanchu?
Even if they were friends, they should not be so desperate, right?
Li Nanchu was suddenly at a loss for words. “Lord Ning Caichen,” he said bitterly. “If you don’t help me, the Xiaguo Kingdom will be in great danger. Besides, since you’ve used a spell that belongs to the royal family of the Xiaguo Kingdom, you should bear the corresponding responsibility. Your behavior is reprehensible.”
Seeing that Jiang Ming was unmoved, Li Nanchu decided to use another method.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Ming still did not care and maintained his att.i.tude.
“It has nothing to do with me. You can settle it yourself.”
“Ah!”
At this moment, screams were heard again and again. A giant python soared into the sky and charged directly at Jiang Ming and the others.
It shouted and greedily sucked the fragrance in the air.
When it realized that the fragrance was coming from Jiang Ming’s body, the giant python’s eyes lit up, and it wanted to eat Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming was still sizing up the giant python in front of him. There were strange totems drawn on the python’s body.
Some of the totems were clear, but some were not.
Jiang Ming did not want to let the python go. He went forward and clamped the python’s mouth.
None of them had expected this.
The pain made the giant python unhappy. It exhaled a mouthful of stinky gas and wanted to chase Jiang Ming away.
Jiang Ming felt the stench and put some special powder in his hand.
In an instant, the stench turned into the fragrance of flowers. The fragrance was so overwhelming that the python was about to faint from the smell.
It was in a daze, as if it would fall down in the next second.
Jiang Ming understood and put more powder into its mouth.
While the python was in a daze, he conjured a small knife out of his spiritual energy and made the small knife cut off its tongue.
The pain made the python react. It quickly swung its tail over, wanting to fling Jiang Ming away.
However, before the tail could touch Jiang Ming, it was cut off by him.
This time, the giant python was trembling in pain.
Yuan Hehe and Sikong Wuyuan were stunned.
This giant python was an ancient spirit beast, why did it feel like it could not hurt Ning Caichen?
How terrifying was Ning Caichen now?
He could even use the secret spell pa.s.sed down by the royal family of the Xiaguo Kingdom without any side effects.
The python realized that something was wrong and quickly retreated, circling around at high speed.
Jiang Ming did not want to let the python go.
He felt that the python’s arrival was too strange, and its target was also very specific. It was as if someone was secretly controlling it.
Li Nanchu was observing the situation from nearby, gritting his teeth so hard that they were about to shatter.
He was the one who had attracted the giant python here. It was also his pet in the palace. He usually fed it very well.
Now, he had even sacrificed his own pet, but Ning Caichen was not injured much. It really made him very annoyed.
Was there no way to kill Ning Caichen?
Jiang Ming moved forward and struck the giant python one last time. A huge knife slashed over, and the python’s head and body were separated. It died immediately.
Blood splattered everywhere. Li Nanchu’s heart ached.
This was his favorite pet.
Yuan Hehe and Sikong Wuyuan were also splashed with blood. They smelled a sweet fragrance.
Jiang Ming was about to take a shower when he turned to look at Li Nanchu.
Li Nanchu thought that he had been discovered and could not help but sweat nervously.
“What’s wrong?”
He tried to remain calm and looked at Jiang Ming.
Jiang Ming was surprised by his reaction. He said,” Get someone to prepare water. We all need to take a shower.”
He hid this strange feeling in his heart and planned to go and take a look later.
“Alright.”
Li Nanchu heaved a sigh of relief and immediately ordered the maids to prepare the baths.
As for helping the poor in the west, he planned to find someone else for the time being.
Ning Caichen was so difficult to manipulate, so it was better for him to stay here.
After taking a shower, Jiang Ming gathered Yuan Hehe and Sikong Wuyuan together and told them about the strange incident.
“I don’t know what evil intentions Li Nanchu has. I think he probably has the intention of killing us. He was the one who started everything.”
Yuan Hehe hit the nail on the head and curled his lips.
“I think so too, but that cup of blood is even stranger. Still, it doesn’t matter. Who knows if Li Nanchu gave him the blood because he felt guilty?”
Sikong Wuyuan did not think much of it.
Jiang Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry, but he did not deny it.
He felt that Sikong Wuyuan and Yuan Hehe were right.
At this moment, Li Nanchu was pacing back and forth in the main palace.
He felt that Ning Caichen had noticed his emotions and was afraid that he would suspect him.
He looked into the distance and looked around. He threw a golden coin from the rock wall.
The gold coin was embedded into the rock wall, opening a door.
Li Nanchu walked through the door.
Now, it was time for him to rise.
Jiang Ming and the other two had a visitor.
This person indicated that he was Li Nanchu’s minister, Chen Siyuan, and that he wanted to collect the lonely paper figure.
At this moment, the paper figure was standing alone at the edge of the wall.
Jiang Ming thought that he had hidden himself flawlessly, but he did not expect that the paper figure would still be discovered.
Especially when the person who discovered it was a minister they had never seen before.
“Sir Ning Caichen,” Chen Siyuan respectfully raised his hand. “This paper figure is the property of the royal family. Please be magnanimous and return him to me.”
“This paper figure is alone. It has already become ours.”
Jiang Ming felt that the paper figure was useless, but he did not want Chen Siyuan to take it away.
Moreover, it was unknown what Chen Siyuan was up to in secret. After all, he was Li Nanchu’s subordinate.
“Lord Ning Caichen, do you want to see who this paper figure will follow?” Chen Siyuan asked confidently. “As long as the paper figure goes with anyone, they can take it away.”
Jiang Ming could tell that he had other motives. He thought for a moment and said, “Why should I agree to this?”
He sized up Chen Siyuan’s body and pondered.
“Since you’re unwilling to do such a thing, then I will leave.”
Chen Siyuan was expressionless. He stood up and planned to leave.
Jiang Ming was slightly surprised to see that he was really leaving.
Chen Siyuan seemed to care a lot about the paper figure, but at the same time, he did not seem to care as well.
Sikong Wuyuan noticed that the paper fight seemed to be acting a little strange. He went over and saw a nail on his back.
The nail was deeply embedded in his flesh, and even the head of the nail was about to go in.
