C522 Who is behind this
Gong Xiaoxuan sneered, and used his internal force to strike out with his palm. Baili Jinxiu heard a slight sound of something breaking through the air, and looked towards the direction of the sound.
Baili Jinxiu flung two silver needles from his sleeve, and the black shadow fell with a sound. He waved his hand and the dark guards brought him over.
The black figure's face still had a black mask, so Baili Jinxiu pulled it off immediately. Beneath the mask was a very ordinary face. Baili Jinxiu knew that the more ordinary a person was, the more powerful they would seem to be, because they were already able to conceal the unique aura they exuded.
Baili Jinxiu slightly lowered his voice and asked: "Who allowed you to follow us?"
The black shadow's entire body was covered in black clothes, and it was obvious that it could not hide anything at a glance. However, even if the black figure had some sort of residence or insignia on his body, Baili Jinxiu would not believe it. After all, this kind of mistake could only be planted.
The black shadow was nailed to its acupoints by Baili Jinxiu's silver needles and could not move at all. It only turned its eyeballs towards Baili Jinxiu to express its anger.
Baili Jinxiu chuckled, then took off one of the silver needles on his body and asked again: "Who sent you?"
The black shadow could move, but its four limbs were so weak that it could not muster up any energy. It struggled to turn its head to the side and did not say a word.
Baili Jinxiu was not annoyed, if the black figure immediately admitted that it was him, then there was really a problem.
He took out a small white bottle from his sleeve and walked over to where the black shadow had turned around. He fiddled with the bottle and whispered, "Ai, I've been making a lot of new poisons these past few days. What a pity, no one gave me a test."
Baili Jinxiu's large eyes turned, staring at the black figure with a smile like a flower: "It's good, now that I have you, I can try all of these medicine once."
Baili Jinxiu laughed very straightforwardly, but the shadow on the ground was shocked listening to him. His mission was only to follow Prince An to the dungeon and provide evidence that Prince An left the palace on his own.
Who knew that he would be caught by these two people. Needless to say, everyone knew that Gong Xiaoxuan was the savage and bloodthirsty Battle King. And this Baili Jinxiu, was the genius doctor's Princess An who had become even more famous recently.
Of course, what he was afraid of was the other nickname of the Princess An — Poison Doctor!
I heard that the Princess An's poison can let you die soundlessly and soundlessly, and can also cause you to be in uncontrollable pain.
The black shadow restrained itself from shivering a little bit, but the fear in its eyes was seen by Baili Jinxiu who was squatting at the side. Baili Jinxiu curled his lips in satisfaction, and acted as if he wanted to open the little white bottle.
The black shadow's pupils slightly widened. It swallowed its saliva and struggled to reply, "No."
"Oh? No? But you didn't tell me who sent you. " Baili Jinxiu thought for a moment, then laughed slyly: "How about this, I know you definitely cannot reveal the identity of the person behind you, but I don't want to kill you either. I'll ask you a few questions, and if you answer honestly, I'll leave you with your life.
As Baili Jinxiu seduced it with each step, the black figure seemed to be somewhat tempted. He looked at Baili Jinxiu, then looked at Gong Xiaoxuan, and his gaze finally stopped on the white bottle in Baili Jinxiu's hands.
"Can you really promise not to kill me? Nor can the question I ask concern my master. "
Baili Jinxiu nodded, smiling as he promised: "I promise I won't kill you."
The black figure actually cherished her life a lot, but when she saw Baili Jinxiu agree to ensure her safety, she did not realise the mockery in the corner of Gong Xiaoxuan's mouth.
Baili Jinxiu thought for a moment, then asked: "When did you start following us?"
The black shadow was somewhat puzzled. "Yesterday afternoon."
Yesterday noon... Yesterday night, the news of him and Gong Xiaoxuan being grounded had only spread around the upper echelons of the capital at night, so that person must have already been prepared before he and Gong Xiaoxuan had entered the palace.
Baili Jinxiu's eyes dimmed, and continued to ask: What is the purpose of following us?
The black shadow's expression showed some hesitation, as if it couldn't say. Otherwise, if it was exposed, it would be executed.
Baili Jinxiu played with the little white bottle in his hand, and from time to time, he would lift it up to look at the lid, it was filled with threat. However, there was still a gentle smile on his face, making the black figure feel as if he was a devil wearing the skin of an angel!
"Master only asked me to follow you guys to find out where you are." After thinking for a long time, the black shadow came up with this sentence. However, the panic in his eyes confirmed that he was lying.
Baili Jinxiu gently opened the lid of the small bottle in his hand and took out a dagger. With a single slash, he broke the black shadow's tendons in his hands, and fresh blood immediately gushed out.
Baili Jinxiu poured the powder from the little white bottle onto his wound, causing his blood to boil, making him look extremely terrifying.
The shadow who was gritting his teeth while the tendons on his hands were being cut off was now shouting out in pain. His hands were itchy, numb, and had a burning pain that went deep into his bones, causing many of the people who had experienced torture to be unable to hold on.
When the blood colored sun shined upon him, the unconscious Baili Jinxiu seemed to walk out from a sea of blood. She was beautiful yet bloodthirsty.
"Sigh, I don't like listening to lies. If I were to overhear them, I wouldn't be able to control myself." Baili Jinxiu said to the black shadow on the ground with a look of pity and regret, but the smile on his face could not be stopped.
The black figure's wails gradually became softer. Baili Jinxiu curled the corner of his mouth and asked again: "What is your goal?"
The black shadow was secretly angry and resentful, but she looked at Baili Jinxiu with a bit of fear in her eyes as she said in a trembling voice, "Master told me to follow you guys to the dungeon, and .. And I also have something that can help me get out of the house. "
Heh, yesterday afternoon, the only one who knew that they were grounded and had to catch something was Gong Xiaohan, the crown prince.
And since Gong Xiaohan had just ascended to the position of Emperor Storage, he naturally wouldn't have the time to cause trouble for them. So the only one left was Crown Prince Jin Nie.
If the evidence of him and Gong Xiaoxuan sneaking out of the palace were to be reported to Emperor at this time, he would definitely be furious. Moreover, the more chaotic the Grean Yan was, the happier Prince Jin Nie would be.
Now that Crown Prince Jin Nie had colluded with Gong Xiaohan, if something were to happen to Gong Xiaoxuan, then the outside world would be oppressed with Moru Country and the inside would collude with Gong Xiaohan.
Gong Xiaoxuan's eyes flashed with a cold light, he retrieved his blade from the hidden guard's side and threw it towards the black figure's neck.
"Puchi." The black shadow's neck was sliced off by the blade, and the black shadow's eyes were wide open. He never would have thought that the Princess An would clearly promise not to kill him, but now that she was actually killed by the Prince An, he did not realise that Baili Jinxiu kept on saying that he would not kill him, and did not say that the Prince An would not kill him.
