Chapter 251: Jun Li Ye is Destined to Not Live Past Tonight

probably been unknowingly drawn to her."Bang!" The chopsticks were swept to the ground by her, Lan Xin Yao's heart pounded wildly, she stared blankly at Xuan Yuan Che, her delicately painted face dra...In the dark of night, two agile figures moved stealthily through the heavily guarded palace, using the thick darkness as cover. They headed straight for the sleeping quarters of Emperor Beiling. 。"Little girl, where are you" Perched on the roof of Shangguan Jianren's house, Shangguan Jinghong whispered as she searched for Su Qingying's figure. 。"Darn it, I was running too fast just now and didn't notice her. This little girl isn't lost, is she" "What are you looking for I'm right here..." 。He was just worrying like this, when suddenly a sharp pain pierced his head. He raised his eyes and saw the black-clad Su Qingying standing beside him at some point, silently and soundlessly. He couldn't sense her presence at all!It seemed as if she had merged with the darkness! "When did you get here" Shangguan Jinghong covered his head in pain. 。"I've been by your side all along, you just didn't notice." 。Su lightly shrugged and gave him a big, rolling eye. 。Just now, who boasted to her, claiming their stealth skills were better than hers Tsk, even she couldn't detect it, so that face must be hurting, right Crouching low, she gently lifted two tiles, Su Qingying gestured to Shang Jinghong with a silent hand, signaling him to come and take a look. 。Shangguan Jinghong nodded. Through the opened tiles, Shangguan Jianren in a bright yellow dragon robe and a black-clothed guard appeared before their eyes. 。"Your Majesty, our men were about to capture the Regent King. Unexpectedly, he suddenly unleashed immense internal energy, overwhelming us. We were defeated and... and allowed him to escape." 。“The dark guards knelt before him, reporting the mission’s failure. A flicker of unease crossed his face.” 。“You said he suddenly erupted with powerful internal energy” Then, unexpectedly, upon hearing his report, Shangguan Jianren’s face did not show the slightest hint of anger, but rather a profound, sinister gaze flickered in his eyes, something the dark guards couldn't understand. 。Upon hearing this, the black-clad guards' hearts skipped a beat. They lowered their heads even further and said in a trembling voice, "This is true, your subordinates have been incompetent and failed to complete the task assigned by Your Majesty. We are willing to accept any punishment. Please punish us, Your Majesty." 。"I understand, you may go now." 。Shangguan Jianren was suddenly in a good mood and, without pursuing their dereliction of duty, directly dismissed them. 。Raising his head suddenly, the black-clad guard didn't react too quickly, looking dumbfounded. "But Your Royal Highness…""Don't worry, Jun Liye is destined to not live past tonight. You guys have also completed your mission." 。Shangguan Jianren’s face twisted into a strange and unreadable smile, one that held both cruelty and glee. 。"My subordinates don't understand..." 。"After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't figure out the reason. The black-clothed guards, emboldened, spoke up." 。Shangguan Jianren was not annoyed by his slander. His major concern had been removed, and he felt unusually lighthearted. He idly smoothed the wrinkles on his sleeve and nonchalantly said: “Qianju San, the world’s most deadly poison, is colorless and tasteless. Anyone who comes into contact with it dies immediately.” 。"

The black-clothed guards were astonished: “Thousand Birds Scatter It is said that this highly poisonous drug has no cure to this day. The Regent King..."

“Hmph, who says Thousand Birds Scatter has no cure I have the antidote for Thousand Birds Scatter in my hand, the only one in the world…" 。So, Jun Li Ye is finished this time. There's no antidote, I want to see how he dares to defy me. 。Shangguan Jianren burst into laughter, his smile laced with a hint of cold killing intent and mockery. 。The Emperor is wise 。The black-clad guards bowed their heads deeply, feeling a chill run down their spines at the ruthlessness of this man. 。Giving him a cold glance, Shangguan Jianren said in a deep voice, "This is none of your concern. Go down and keep watch over the Prince Regent's Mansion at all times. If there is any movement, report it to me immediately!" The black-clad dark guard stiffened and respectfully replied, "Understood." 。Having said that, he immediately vanished into the darkness, silently retreating. 。On the rooftop, Su Qingying and Shangguan Jinghong listened intently to their conversation, word for word. 。“He really does have the antidote.” 。Her phoenix eyes narrowed slowly, and Su Qingying's delicate face pulled into a chillingly cold arc, her killing intent palpable. 。"Little girl, look! My emperor is leaving." 。“Seeing Shangguan Jianren leave the bedroom with his hands behind his back, Shangguan Jing hurried to remind him in a low voice.” 。"Come on, let's follow him and see where he hid the antidote!" 。"Having said that, Su Qingying took the lead and stealthily chased after him into the darkness like a phantom." 。The two of them followed Shangguan Jianren as they turned left and right, only to arrive at a garden with artificial hills. 。"Shàngguān Sáibāo, wait!" This rock garden always gave her a strange feeling. Sū Qīngyíng subconsciously stopped Shàngguān Jīnghōng's steps, her brows furrowed. 。Sheng Hong looked at her inexplicably, "What are you doing Don't you want to save Hei Xin Ye Follow up quickly! My father emperor is leaving far!" Su Qingying's eyes flashed sharply, her expression solemn, she pointed at the layout around the garden and said solemnly, "Look closely at Emperor Bei Ling's steps and route, do you see anything strange""What are you trying to say" Shangguan Jing Hong didn't understand, and was made even more confused by her. 。

"Qimen Dunjia" 。Her lips curled into a cold smirk. Su Qingying's slender fingers lightly stroked her jawline, her pupils deep and fathomless, radiating a chillingly cold light. "This backyard is laid out according to the Bagua of the Five Elements. It appears ordinary at first glance, but it hides deadly traps. If one steps wrong, they will immediately trigger the formation." 。The Five Elements and Eight Trigrams change constantly, if we are trapped, it would be hard to escape! I didn't expect that even the Northern Emperor was proficient in Qimen Dunjia, indeed extraordinary! "Little girl, you're being too mystical! I looked for a long time and couldn't see anything special. It's just an ordinary garden!" 。Shangguan Jinghong's mouth twitched, and he secretly smacked his tongue. 。The Palace had been his home for over ten years, he'd never heard of any strange formations or mystical arrangements here. What was with this girl and her constant surprises "Don't believe me Then watch..." 。Seeing disbelief etched across his face, Su Qingying raised an eyebrow and casually picked up a small pebble. With a flick of her wrist, she imbued it with force and hurled it outwards. 。"Whizz whizz whizz—" As soon as the stone hit the ground, the seemingly ordinary rockery suddenly shot out dozens of arrows in all directions, leaving no room to escape. 。Upon seeing this, Shangguan Jinghong's eyes almost shot out like springs, his mouth gaping wide open as if a football could fit inside. 。"See, if that pebble had been you just now, you would have been shot full of holes like a porcupine." 。Su Qingying lightly patted his shoulder with a nonchalant air, her voice soft and distant. 。"Phew, phew, lucky I didn't rush in just now" 。“Shangguan Jinghong suddenly patted his own little heart. Remembering what had just happened, his heart beat wildly, with a sense of relief after the disaster. “Strange, I’ve lived in this life for over ten years, and I’ve never noticed anything strange about this garden.” 。Upon hearing this, Su Qingying let out a cold snort. Her phoenix eyes suddenly turned as cold as ice, and the dark depths of her pupils flashed with a chilling light. "It's normal for you not to know if Emperor Beiling intentionally concealed it, but since he set up such a perilous trap here, it also means that the scattered antidote is very likely hidden here." 。“ qin and with just a few light plucks, our insects were wiped out completely. Our men died under that qin.Thinking back to that nightmare, a scene of utter chaos and bloodshed, the man in black shiver...
