Chapter 180 I Can't Give Him Anything
The news that Nanying Zuohu was poisoned to death soon spread within Yingmen. The leader of Yingmen was furious and ordered his subordinates to investigate personally. If the situation was true, Yingmen vowed to be irreconcilable with Nanjiang Poisonous Insect Valley.
"Nan Ying Shi Xuan Yu leads all the Nan Ying soldiers to pay respect to the Sect Master."
In the dense forest, Xuanyu led several black-clad shadow warriors hidden in Chaoyun City to kneel in front of a man dressed in solemn dark red, with a black and white mask on his face, and waving a red fan in his hand. Behind this man were also several black-clad shadow warriors.
"Everyone, get up." Under the black and white mask, there was a young and feminine voice.
Xuanyu and the Nanyingshi behind her stood up after receiving the order, and then heard the sect leader continue to ask:
"Can you find out what kind of poison Zuo Hu was poisoned with?"
"My Lord, it has been confirmed that this is the poison of the red scorpion. This poison is unique to the Poisonous Insect Valley in Southern Xinjiang." Xuan Yu frowned and replied.
"Red Scorpion." The red fan tightened with a swish sound, and the pair of eyes on the black and white mask turned scarlet. The red fan was also tightly grasped in his hand, making a creaking sound. Then, as if suppressing his anger, he looked at Yan Yu coldly and asked, "Have you found the person who poisoned him?"
"My Lord, the whereabouts of those three people were mysterious, and they did not stay in Chaoyun City for long that day, so..." Before Huanyu could finish her words, the leader of the Yingmen Sect waved the red fan in his hand, leaving two blood marks on Huanyu's face. The Nanyingmen behind her were all horrified when they saw this.
I've heard that the sect leader is ruthless, but I didn't expect that he could be so cruel to a beautiful face like Yanyu, showing no mercy at all.
"Waste! Zuo Hu has been praising your intelligence in front of me for years. Is he exaggerating or have you never tried hard to find it?" A trace of murderous intent flashed in the eyes under the black and white mask as he glared at Yan Yu.
"Master, please be wise. Huanyu has been deeply protected by Master Zuo Hu over the years. He treated Huanyu like a living child. Now that Master Zuo Hu has been killed, Huanyu is heartbroken and filled with grief and indignation. She wishes to find the murderer and tear his body into pieces to avenge Master Zuo Hu!" Huanyu knelt at the feet of the Master of Yingmen without being humble or arrogant. Her eyes were red and her whole body was shaking with anger.
"Get up." The leader of the Shadow Sect stared at Yan Yu for a long time with cold eyes, then suddenly bent down and stretched out his hand to help her up. His tone became gentler as he continued, "I was angry just now and misunderstood you. Fortunately, the scratch from my fan was not deep, otherwise it would be a pity to leave a scar on such a beautiful face."
When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other in surprise. This sect leader was really moody.
"It was Xuanyu's incompetence that made her unable to find the murderer for Lord Zuo Hu and unable to comfort the heroic spirit of Lord Zuo Hu who died in vain..." After Xuanyu finished speaking, her eyes were already filled with tears and she was sobbing uncontrollably.
"Okay, okay, now is not the time to cry. The most important thing right now is to continue searching for the murderer!" The leader of the Yingmen Sect patted Yan Yu's shoulder with the red fan in his hand to comfort her twice, then looked up at Nan Yingshi behind him and said.
"Yes, Lord Sect Master!"
Afterwards, everyone dispersed, and the leader of Yingmen only left behind Yanyu.
"What do you want, Master?"
When Xuanyu took the initiative to speak, the leader of the Shadow Sect turned around and looked at Xuanyu and asked, "I heard that your elder sister is the eldest disciple of the Poison Insect Valley?"
"Master Sect Master, my sister sold me to the Shadow Sect several years ago and we have had no contact since then. I don't know what's going on with her now." I replied with a serious expression.
"No matter what, we are still blood relatives. We cannot be separated in this life." The leader of the Shadow Sect gently waved his red fan, approached Yan Yu and whispered, "Go to Southern Xinjiang for me and find out the attitude of the Poison Insect Valley towards the Shadow Sect and whether any disciples have come to Jingsong Country? The most important thing is to find the secret medicine Gu Heart for me. If you can accomplish these two things, I will help you become the new Left Protector."
"Master, Xuanyu has not yet settled the matter of the famous Li from Jiangnan..." Just as Xuanyu expected, the master left her alone just for the secret medicine Gu Xin. This condition did attract her, but she could not leave Jingsong Kingdom yet.
"There are some things that are not important. The current Lord is very angry about Zuo Hu's death. We must first solve the current problem. As for Jiangnan Ming Li, there is no need to rush. Moreover, I think your previous failure has aroused Jiangnan Ming Li's vigilance. It is better to let it go for now and take action after they relax."
"Yes, Lord Sect Master."
Huan Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief that the mission of Jiangnan Mingli could be postponed. This way, she could take some time to go to southern Xinjiang and help her sister deal with the Poisonous Insect Valley.
Before heading to southern Xinjiang, Xuanyu once again met with Zeng Si, the third in command of Yanjiaopo.
"Yu, your face...who did this?" When Zeng Si saw the two faint bloodstains on Yu's face, anger filled his eyes.
"My face was hurt by the leader of the Shadow Sect." Zeng Si was angry for himself, but Yan Yu didn't care. She sneered at him and said, "What can you do? Seek justice for me?"
"Shadow Gate?" Zeng Si was shocked when he heard it.
I heard that it is a dark organization in Xiyue Country, specializing in assassinations and intelligence trading.
"Hasn't the Third In Command always been curious about Xuanyu's true identity?" Xuanyu looked at Zeng Si with cold eyes, but there was no warmth in that smile.
"Are you from Yingmen?" Zeng Si frowned and asked softly.
Xuanyu said nothing, just nodded.
Zeng Si looked Huan Yu up and down, then took two steps back in disbelief. He had always known that Huan Yu's whereabouts were mysterious, and thought she was just a solitary person in the world, but he didn't expect that she was actually a killer from Yingmen.
"Yue Yu didn't mean to hide it from the Third Master, but my identity is special, and I dare not easily reveal it before confirming whether the Third Master is trustworthy."
"You are sure today that I am worthy of your trust?" Huanyu's sincere apology hurt Zeng Si's heart deeply. So what if she is a killer from the Shadow Gate? She is still Huanyu, the woman he loves deeply, but... but... it turns out that she has always been suspicious of him.
"Because this time you helped me kill the left protector of Shadow Gate and gave me a helping hand." She said it so calmly, as if it was just a trivial matter.
But Zengsi became panicked again after hearing this, and his originally fair face became even paler.
"Don't worry, this matter is known only to heaven and earth, and you and I know it. I will also lead all this to the Southern Xinjiang Poison Insect Valley."
Seeing Zeng Si's frightened face change drastically, Yan Yu couldn't help but sneer, raised her hand and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him. But just as she finished speaking, her waist suddenly tightened, and she was caught off guard by Zeng Si and pulled into his arms.
"What does Third In Command mean?" Zeng Si's sudden boldness surprised Yan Yu, but she remained calm and frowned.
"Do you really enjoy playing with others?" Zeng Si's face was filled with anger, and veins on his forehead bulged. He was so sad that he had given his whole heart and soul to her, but in the end, it was all calculated by her.
"Let go." Yan Yu's face immediately turned grim, and her eyes were as sharp as a cold knife. She looked at the man in front of her in deathly silence.
Zeng Si was frightened by Xuan Yu's icy eyes and quickly let go of her hand.
When Xuanyu saw Zeng Si let go of his hand, she slapped him on the shoulder.
Zeng Si was caught off guard and was pushed back several steps. His eyes were covered with mist. He could not believe that the woman he loved so much would actually hit him. Before the tears fell, he turned and ran out.
"Miss, why do you have to hurt him like this?" After a while, Hongnu walked in and sighed worriedly.
"My path will become more and more dangerous in the future. I can't drag him in anymore. Besides, I can't give him anything." Yan Yu looked at the scenery in the distance outside the temple with an expressionless face and sighed coldly.
She was also a person who was suffering from lovesickness. How could she not know the true love of the Third Master of Yanjiapo for her? However, her heart could no longer accommodate a second person.
