Chapter 1613: True Courage >

No wonder a woman like Xiao Liu, with such a personality, could be bold enough to follow Dong Ge'er into the capital.It seems that he was moved by Dong Ge'er's actions."Although Xiao Liu's mother is n...Seeing that he finally got down to business, his eyes became serious. “Of course I remember.”

"Then why..."

"It was my fault." Shuangshuang knew what he wanted to ask, so she didn't let him speak and interrupted directly. "I know it was wrong to help the Princess of Beijang, but if I had another chance, I would still save her, without regret."

..."...

The Ming Deng's face immediately darkened, but just as he was about to question why, she heard Shuangshuang's resolute assurance, "I don't want to mention this again. Anyway, things have come to this."

But these days the people of Bei Jiang Wang Fu have eased their suspicion towards me because the princess has woken up, and they are not in a hurry to leave.

"Rest assured, I have never forgotten my identity nor the purpose for approaching the Northern Border Princess. Give me a little more time and I will bring back both the Northern Border Princess and her secret weapon to the Western Regions."

"...."

Seeing her confident expression, Ming Deng ultimately didn't ask what other tricks she had up her sleeve.

Shuangshuang is his student, and since she’s so determined to say there's a way, he believes her and will continue to let her figure things out.

After all, when these tasks were assigned to her, it was with the intention of honing her skills, not placing all hopes solely on her shoulders.

It would be great if things could work out with Shuangshuang, but it's okay if there's no progress and she doesn't succeed.

Well, this time is just for her to have some training.

So, hearing Shuangshuang's assurance, he didn't say much. He simply nodded and said, "Alright, then we'll give you some more time. But from now on, don't hide away alone to suffer. If you get hurt again or can't control the blood worm inside your body, be sure to find a way to send us a message."

"Never again should you bear such pain alone as you have these past few days, understand"

Back then, it was he who implanted the blood gu in Shuangshuang. Although he had never planted a blood gu like this before, he knew how much pain the child would suffer if the blood gu wasn't appeased.

Since An Xuetang had recovered for several days, it meant that from the day An Xuetang woke up, Shuangshuang had been relentlessly attacked by the blood gu. But she single-handedly endured it all.

If it weren't for the fact that he and Zhi'er happened to come tonight, she wouldn't have known how much longer she would have had to endure.

Such a piercing pain, I really don't know how she got through it. Just thinking about it now, my heart aches for her.

Seeing the pain in his eyes, Shuangshuang smiled nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing, nothing will happen to me."

The lantern sighed, reaching out to gently rub her long hair. "Rest now, I'll find a way to bring you more medicine tomorrow."

< "Good, thank you," said Shuangshuang with a slight nod.>

Seeing that the child clearly had some distance from him, Ming Deng's eyes dimmed for a moment, but he didn't say much.

……

And after leaving Shuangshuang's room, she turned and went to Fu'er's room in another courtyard.

At this moment, she stood beside Fu'er's bed, her eyebrows raised. She then bent down and sniffed the medicine under Fu'er's nose.

This room wasn't just home to Fu'er; there was also Fengming holding a child and Xunluo, but both were currently disoriented by Zhi'er and Ming Deng.

Zi’er and the others only recently found out that ordinary sleeping drugs couldn't drug the people of Beijiang Wangfu.

So today I emptied my coffers, taking out the less than 5 powerful pills that remain in this world.

This poison was left behind by the ancestors of the Western Regions' evil clan. Zhi'er and Ming Deng naturally wouldn't be willing to use such a treasure here, but Feng Ming and Xun Luo and others were too powerful in martial arts. If they didn't use this poison, there was no way to deal with them at all.

She and the lantern could not possibly move about this courtyard with such ease.

It's a pity that they can't replicate these medicinal herbs passed down from their ancestors, every pill is precious and irreplaceable.

They have been reluctant to use this thing for years, but today they used two of them.

When I think of her, my heart aches. But when I consider the reason for her visit tonight, it feels worthwhile.

At this moment, Fu'er in bed had already woken up. Seeing Zhi'er suddenly appear by her bedside, she instinctively wanted to scream, but she couldn't make a sound.

He could only stare with one big eye, glaring fiercely at Chier by the bed.

Chi'er, seeing that she was awake now, looked down at her with a superior air, a faint smirk playing on her lips. She spoke in a sarcastic tone:

"As fellow protectors of Xintang Valley, the other three live carefree lives, not even minding their status in front of the Princess of Beijiang. But you, you live like you're worse than a dog."

“!”

Foley naturally knew this point. Facing the provocations and mockery of the person in front of her, she could only glare back, unable to retort a single word.

Looking into her eyes, which were red with anger, Zhi'er saw the intense murderous intent lurking within them. As if she had achieved her goal, Zhi'er let out a cold smile and then moved to remove the gag from her mouth.

Finally able to speak, Fu'er gritted her teeth and said, “What do you want”

Chi'er chuckled softly, raising her brows slightly. She spoke slowly, "Of course, I'm here to help you."

Will you help her

Fu'er certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to believe such benefits that came out of nowhere. She fixed her probing gaze on the person in front of her.

Chi'er thought that by throwing out such a single sentence, Fu’er would definitely be the first to ask her what she wanted to help with.

Ji'er raised an eyebrow, "You don't believe me"

Fu'er only then shifted her gaze from her face, scanning the room. She looked at Xunluo and Fengming who were unconscious in the room. She didn't know what she was thinking, but a glint of bloodthirsty sharpness flashed in her eyes.

Zhi’er thought she would be the first to speak, asking how she could help. But the first thing Fu'er said was, “Well then, since you’re here to help me, why don’t you start by killing that person for me”

Because Fu'er's hands had been crippled, she used her chin to point at the fallen Xu Luo when speaking, wanting Zhi'er to kill Xu Luo.

Zi'er followed her gaze and naturally saw the person lying on the ground.

She could understand the resentment and murderous intent in this trash's heart. She must have been tortured beyond measure by these people during the days she was imprisoned here.

So right now, the first thing on my mind is to kill them, and I can't say it would be wrong.

But this cripple is what she considered Dare to open her mouth and want her to be her executioner Want her to kill for her

She really has the courage to make that request.acrificed her two brothersShe owes her freedom today to her two brothers paying the price for her mistakes, doesn't sheHer two older brothers are in extreme danger outside the capital, but she is livi...
