The tenderness of my gaze seemed to make absolutely no difference to her.
The young woman looked away from Hilo, looked at me with a bit of teasing in her eyes, and said:
"Your Majesty the City Lord is really good at digging the wall and onto our [Hidden Guard]. The target is still our Young Master. Do we really think that we can't reach this small Yuxi City?"
[Hidden Guard]...
I frowned, wondering where I'd heard this word before.
Before I tried to recall, the woman in front of me had already said:
"Let me introduce myself. I am Shuang, Frost of Baishuang, the life-delivering officer of [Yinwei] among the three guards of Lingwu, and also the direct person in charge of Hilo. To be honest, the little girl joined Yinwei at the age of eight, and has been ten years old since then. It’s been five years, and I’ve never seen anyone dare to touch our hidden guard’s idea. Should I say you’re ignorant or fearless, or that you… are looking for your own death.”
Oh, I remembered.
I remember that He Yue told me about popular science, saying that in the Yongtian Dynasty today, the three major Anbu organizations famous for "Assassination" are Lord Huai's "Nocturne", Lord Zixuan's "Luo Chen", and Lord Lingwu's "Yinwei"].
Leaving aside the first two, the Lingwu Territory is one of the top three in terms of comprehensive strength among the thirty-six territories of Yongtian. After all, it is a super territory that resists the giants in the north with its own strength and prevents those behemoths from going south. I heard from my father that if it wasn't for their family's too much effort to maintain the northern defense line, the current royal family of Yongtian would have nothing to say. But my father didn't say much at the time. Although they were both lords, they obviously looked down on us, Yunyang, and basically had no contact with each other.
Having said that, I remembered that Bai Huang also mentioned Lord Lingwu when he was sleeping together. It is said that she is the previous cloud sea oiran, with an all-powerful appearance, so beautiful that she is not like a woman in the world. Because of the existence of the Lingwu lord, He Yue can only be the second most beautiful person in the world all his life. At that time, Bai Huang also said that such a high-ranking person probably won't have any intersection with us in this life.
This is also called no intersection, has this little mouth opened up? As for Bai Huang, let's just call her White Crow from now on.
Looking at the cold and contemptuous eyes of the woman who called herself Shuang, I also laughed and said:
"Lingwu Territory. I have also heard about that lord. Being able to withstand the invasion of giants in the north by himself is naturally not an idle person. But her great cause has nothing to do with you. I will be afraid if you bring her out." Do you? There is no need for a foreign dog to bark in my Lide family yard."
Shuang looked at me, although she covered half of her face with a veil, I could feel her obviously sneering.
After just sneering, she didn't argue with me, but turned to Hilo and said coldly:
"Okay, are you brave enough? I don't even listen to what I say? Or do you think that the realm of the Seventh Great Consummation is enough to make your wings hard and go to another place to make a home? I have to ask Yama of the Ten Temples to invite you personally. Are you willing to move your nest? I don’t need to tell you at that time, you know what will happen!”
Hilo gasped heavily at first, shaking violently.
Until the words [Ten Palaces of Yama] came to his ears, Xi Luo's body stopped suddenly.
She raised her head and looked at Shuang.
Shuang narrowed her slender eyes and said:
"Do you think I'm lying to you? Your Majesty is very disappointed in you. Your teachers will be here soon. If you can't do it, someone can do it for you."
I wanted to pat Hilo on the back to appease her emotions, but my outstretched hand was in vain.
At that moment, Hilo jumped up like a cat with fried fur, and quickly opened the distance between me and me. She looked at me, for the first time there was some expression in those dark pupils, but it was indescribable panic and hesitation.
After stumbling back a few steps, Hilo suddenly turned around and fled without looking back.
The coat I put on her fell to the ground, covered with a light layer of dust.
I looked at Hilo's back and didn't chase after him. Watching her figure disappear from my sight, I asked Shuang:
"Are you considered a high-level person in Yinwei?"
Frost tilted her head, her crimson hair slid down to her shoulders, she said with a smile:
"It doesn't count. I'm just a life teller, my lord, even if you want to blackmail the little girl, it's useless? My life is not worth as much as Hilo's. Even if I die here, I should come It will come, this is an inescapable retribution, a fate that accompanies you to death. From ancient times to the present, none of the people on our hidden guard assassination list can survive."
I turned my head to look at Shuang, and said in a deep voice:
"Helo, she almost died in Yuxi City."
Shuang's expression was calm, and his tone was calm and breezy:
"Oh, is it? Then die."
I followed up and asked:
"But isn't she your young master?"
Shuang laughed, her voice was cold, and said disdainfully:
"She is our young master, but she is not our only young master. Every time the power of Yinwei is changed, there are forty-nine candidates competing. First, they grow up and experience each other, and those who survive kill each other. Finally, the remaining Only the person who is under him is qualified to inherit the hidden guard. The person who died during the training period is nothing more than a waste. May I ask if the city lord will take pity on a waste?"
As she said that, she made a look of sudden realization, and said with a smile:
"Haha, I forgot that the city lord is too. There is still a feeling that things hurt other people, right?"
I didn't talk to her again.
Just a clown.
I have already asked what I should ask, so I yawned and said lightly:
"Then open your dog eyes and watch carefully."
After speaking, I picked up the coat on the ground, bypassed Shuang, and walked towards Yuxi City.
Behind him, Shuang dragged his voice, and sarcastically said in a nasal voice:
"I advise the city lord to stop struggling. It is better to pay the lives of one or two people than to have Yuxi City slaughtered."
Yeah
Maybe a nice ending, but I don't really like it.
Shuang's level is no more than the four great perfections, and it is really impossible to say that this level is the top of the hidden guard. As she said, there was no point in killing her or using her as a threat. It is precisely because not only is it meaningless, but it will make the situation even more difficult to turn around, that she dared to come outside Yuxi City alone, and disgust people like this unscrupulously.
But what I can't refute is that I was really disgusted by her.
When I got to the city gate, I sighed.
Actually, I know it. Even if this woman named Shuang doesn't show up, the situation will deteriorate one day.
As Changqing said, it is important to have a good relationship with Hilo, but the forces behind her are also a mountain that cannot be avoided. Before there is no ability to move mountains, no matter how high Hilo's favorability is, there is no way to achieve a happy ending.
Is it Lingwu... This wall feels a little hard, and it's really not easy to dig it out.
