The blade was pressed against the skin, and it felt cold and biting to the touch.
It was as if the blood had stopped flowing.
Wei's eyelashes drooped down, and suddenly he turned around and kicked Ji Yue's wrist. Ji Yue's response was extremely fast, his wrist was turned over, Wei Lian broke free from the shackles, and threw the short knife horizontally.
The two completely fought each other in the sky.
Swords, lights, swords and shadows, weapons collide. After more than a hundred moves in an instant, one could not escape, and one could not fall. Ji Yue's expression gradually became condensed.
He has encountered countless assassins, but this is the first time he has encountered such a strong opponent.
While chasing just now, he had already discovered that the opponent was extremely talented, and now it seemed that his martial arts could be on par with him.
It is no exaggeration to say that there are only five fingers in the world who have this realm.
Who is this here to buy his life? So willing to pay blood.
Could it be... Tu Mi
The Seven Kingdoms have both bounty rankings and, naturally, assassin rankings. The bounty list is also known as the assassination list, the top ten most hated figures in the seven kingdoms, death notices...
The number one on this list is always Ji Yue, whose head is worth 10,000 gold, everyone wants his life, and his popularity remains high. But no one was able to kill him, so his name could never be erased from the list.
The other nine will change from time to time. After all, the unfortunate ones on the list will be targeted and killed by the top ten assassins.
This assassin ranking list is the ten most powerful killers in the world. To ask them to take action, you need to ask for a lot of money.
All of them are highly skilled in martial arts, possess unique skills, and do not recognize their identities, only bounties. Among them, the second-ranked Rakshasa has the highest attendance rate, rushing around every day in the seven countries to kill this one and the other, the success rate is as high as 99%, very dedicated.
Why not 100%
Because that 1% was planted in Ji Yue's hands.
Because of Ji Yue's difficulty, being able to kill him has become the supreme glory of the killer world and their ultimate goal. A steady stream of assassins rushed to the Qin Palace, trying to kill him to prove the Tao. Before some people washed their hands, they had to kill the King of Qin as the final piece of work, which would be considered a complete success.
Ji Yue was really miserable, pitiful, and helpless, which made him very angry.
So he can only make those assassins more miserable, more pitiful, and more helpless.
Those assassins all came and went, either died under the sword of Ji Yue or buried in A Meng's belly. More business skills were not enough, and they were shot dead by the banned army arrows before they got close to Ji Yue.
Rakshasa was the only one who could escape from Ji Yue's hands alive, at the cost of being seriously injured and dying.
Indirectly saving the heads of countless people, Ji Yuezhen is a great achievement.
From this, it can be seen that Rakshasa is still very powerful, at least he got out alive.
But the most powerful person on the list is not Rakshasa, but Tu Mi.
Compared to the Rakshasa who had been conscientiously killing countless people, Tu Mi was much more lazy. Since his debut, he has only killed seven people, each of whom is a big-name, well-known and powerful person on the side of Megatron.
The first person Tu Mi killed was the martial arts leader at the time, which shocked the world.
The second is the court eagle dog of Yan State, which caused an uproar in the whole country.
The third is the former monarch of the state of Lu, who is famous all over the world.
The top ten killers are all code names, and no one knows their surnames, their ages, their origins, and Tu Mi is even more mysterious. It's just that every time he kills a person, he will leave a saffron flower beside the corpse, hence the code name.
The flower symbolizes the beauty of the end. This person truly regards death as the beautiful end and sends people to die peacefully.
But the famous assassin never took over the task of assassinating the King of Qin.
There are rumors from the outside that the person who knows the current affairs is Junjie. He did not come to assassinate Qin in order to keep his 100% success rate and not to smash his own brand. Others said that he was afraid of King Qin and did not dare to provoke him.
No matter how many people have different opinions, Tu Mi remained unmoved and could not kill him.
Besides him, Ji Yue couldn't think of a second assassin who could draw a tie with him.
After all, the second-ranked Rakshasa has proved that his strength is not as good as him.
After such a thoughtful effort, the two fought for hundreds of rounds. No matter who came, Ji Yue always had the intention to kill, and never left troubles later. Wei Lian had no intention of hurting anyone, so he was tied up in a fight. Even if they were evenly matched, they would inevitably lose out.
It didn't take a moment for Wei Lian to have a wound on his right shoulder. He was about to evacuate, but Ji Yue blocked his way, and the three-footed sword swept over, almost picking out the guard to hold his face towel.
Wei Lian's pupils shrank slightly.
Can't be seen by Ji Yue...
Before he could think about it, Wei Lianshengsheng blocked with his left arm, blocking his face, the blade of the sword sank into his arm, and the blood stained his black clothes. Ji Yue took advantage of the victory to pursue the attack, and twisted the man's wrist violently, forcing him to let go of the weapon.
Wei Lian was in pain, gritted his teeth and restrained his groan, preventing Ji Yue from hearing the familiar voice. The short knife fell on the tile with a crisp "bang" sound.
The weapon is out of hand, and the outcome is decided.
Wei Lianzhe sat on the roof tile, Ji Yue stood in front of him, condescendingly, the tip of his sword pointed at him.
Wei Lian raised his eyes, his eyes were calm, but he couldn't hide the pain and...
and a little grievance.
Ji Yue's hand holding the sword suddenly trembled.
Why is this assassin...
Deja Vu.
However, the night was too dark, and he couldn't see the man's eyes clearly. The man suddenly raised his hand, and a few silver needles flew out from his right hand. When Ji Yue stepped back and dodged, the man in black had disappeared from sight.
Ji Yue stood there and looked around, unable to find out which direction the assassin fled from.
He leaned over and picked up the short knife dropped by the other party. It was ordinary in appearance, the most common type outside, and could not reveal any identity.
The other party is cautious.
Ji Yue put away the knife, and suddenly thought of Wei Lian.
I don't know if Wei Lian will be okay...
Ji Yue immediately rushed to Zhongling Palace.
Wei Lian hurried back to the Zhongling Palace as quickly as possible. He didn't enter through the main entrance, but turned directly into the bedroom through the window.
He had sealed several of his acupoints on the way, temporarily stopping the bleeding, leaving no traces of blood along the way to reveal flaws, but the injuries on his body were still real.
As soon as he entered the room, he used his right hand to pull back his dislocated left wrist. During the process, he was also involved in the injury on his right shoulder, and a few drops of fine sweat fell on his forehead.
Wei Lian endured and said nothing.
There was no time to delay, Wei Lian quickly changed into his night clothes, and was about to change into his regular clothes when he heard a salute from the palace servants outside: "See Your Majesty."
"Where's the son?"
"The son has rested."
Wei Lian frowned.
Why did Ji Yue come so quickly? !
Wei Lian hid directly under the quilt, covering himself tightly to cover the wounds on his shoulders and arms.
He blew out the candle again and pretended to have fallen asleep.
"Go in alone and see him."
The footsteps were getting closer.
Wei Lian tried his best to keep his breathing steady.
If Ji Yue discovers the injury on his body, it can be directly announced that the game is over.
After a while, a shadow fell in front of the bed.
Ji Yue walked in and saw that Wei Lian was still lying on the bed, and he was really relieved.
He was afraid that the assassin would be bad for Wei Lian.
"Why did you go to bed so early today?" Ji Yue sat on the head of the bed, "Sleep?"
Wei Lian was silent.
Ji Yue looked at him for a while, then got up and wanted to light the candle.
Wei Lian was surprised.
When the candle is lit, the probability that he will be found abnormal by Ji Yue greatly increases.
"Don't light the lights..." Wei Lian hurriedly pretended to be sleepy and vaguely said, "Dazzling..."
Ji Yue moved for a while, then sat back again: "Okay, okay, don't order."
"It's getting late... What are you doing here so late?" Wei Lian whispered, "Go back."
I don't welcome you now, please hurry up, hurry up, hurry out! ! !
Ji Yue said, "I came to see you alone."
I'm worried about you.
Do you know that I just got into a fight with someone, and that person is strong and I'm scared too.
I am not afraid of him, I am afraid that if he is not found, he will not be good for you.
I was so embarrassed right after the fight that I didn't have time to tidy up my clothes, so I rushed to see you.
It's reassuring to see you're safe and sound.
Ji Yue thought that Wei Lian was asleep, so he wanted to light the lamp to see what he looked like.
Since Wei Lian hadn't slept, he didn't light the lights.
He didn't want Wei Lian to see what he looked like now. The assassin didn't really hurt him, but he looked very embarrassed now, with several holes in his clothes, as if he had just returned from the battlefield.
This kind of appearance can't be seen by Wei Lian, it will damage his image.
"What's so beautiful about me... I can watch it every day." Wei Lian eagerly wanted Ji to leave sooner, "I'm going to sleep, you can go back to sleep too."
Ji Yue still cares about the escaped assassin, whose martial skill and strength are beyond his control.
He didn't dare to gamble with his sweetheart.
He could not care about the safety of others in the palace, but Wei Lianwan had nothing to do with it.
He warned: "The palace is not peaceful these few days, you just stay in the Zhongling Palace and don't go out. Especially at night."
"Understood, I've been staying in the house tonight." Wei Lian's voice became lower and lower.
"That's good, and..." Just as Ji Yue was about to talk about the antidote, he heard the young man breathe evenly.
Fell asleep
Ji Yue laughed and sighed softly: "You... The antidote is alone on the table, remember to eat it when you wake up tomorrow morning."
He got up and walked to the table, the moonlight outside the window shedding light on the dust on the ground.
Ji Yue's eyes narrowed, and it instantly became cold.
That's... crumbs on roof tiles.
From the window all the way to the bed.
The assassin is hiding in the house at the moment
No, Ji Yue was quite sure that there was no third person breathing in the room besides him and Wei Lian.
Is that the assassin who came here
just now
Ji Yue stopped at the table, and suddenly remembered that when his sword was pointed at the assassin, the assassin raised his eyes in a hurry, so familiar that he couldn't bear to strike again.
There is only one person in this world that will make him reluctant...
And the man didn't make a sound from beginning to end. Even if he wore human skin and flesh and cut off human wrist bones, he didn't hear a single sound of pain.
The conjecture is terrifyingly terrifying.
No, he shouldn't doubt Wei Xiaolian.
Ji Yue, your trust in him can't be just that.
But on the other hand, strong reason and judgment told him that his feelings were not wrong.
Wei Lian had reservations about him.
Ji Yue looked back at Wei Lian, who was sleeping on the couch. After all, he did not dare to verify his guess.
Still don't disturb people's sleep.
He almost escaped from the place.
Wei Lian didn't know Ji Yue's complicated mental journey, only saw Ji Yue standing by the table for a while, leaving a medicine bottle and leaving.
He waited for a while and saw that Ji Yue had not turned back before turning on the lamp to check his injuries.
The right shoulder is fine, just a slight scratch, just a little bit of medicine.
The hard part was the left arm, which was almost penetrated and the carpal bone was broken once.
But it didn't matter to Wei Lian. How can a martial arts practitioner be afraid of hardships? He has always had excellent endurance and has suffered numerous major and minor injuries.
For those who are used to being strong, no matter what kind of pain, patience will pass.
There is nothing to bear, and nothing to go through.
Wei Lian's face was slightly pale, and he dug out the medicine box, enduring the pain to apply medicine, bandage, and treat the wound.
The blood stains red with layer after layer of bandages.
He bowed his head and wrapped himself around in circles, biting his lips, his brows calm.
Her beautiful long eyelashes were wet with sweat, making her vision a little hazy. Wei Lian raised his eyes and saw the small white jade porcelain bottle that Ji Yue had left on the table.
On the wall opposite the table, there is the rabbit lamp from the night of Shangyuan.
He looked down at the blood that spread to his wrist, and suddenly felt the pain so unbearable.
