Fairy, Please Let Me Explain

Chapter 558 Killing someone with a borrowed knife

I have to say that the vitality of cultivators is really strong.

A big hole was opened in his right chest, and his Dantian was pierced by a knife blade. Qin Weishu was still not dead. He even had some energy left to speak, and his smiling voice was trembling because of the injury:

 “What a pity.”

ˆ “.”

 In response to these unclear words, Xu Yuan was kicked from behind.

Qin Weishu fell forward in a panic in an instant, and slid out of the hole made by the man for a few feet, with bright red blood dragging all over the ground.

 Glancing at the blood soaked in the secret agent's saber, Xu Yuan turned around and walked slowly towards Xu Mengxi's direction.

Hearing the sound of footsteps coming from near and far away, Qin Weishu struggled and turned his face sideways, vomiting out blood-soaked dust.

 This action also caused the figure in front of him to instantly overlap with a villain in his memory.

Thoughts flashed across my mind,

Four spiritual swords penetrated Qin Weishu's limbs and pinned him firmly to the ground.

Looking at the figure disappearing into the black mist, Qin Weishu's eyes were filled with a daze.

 In an instant, Xu Mengxi raised his hand and grabbed the wrist of the man in front of him without any warning.

Hearing the voice, Xu Mengxi's blurred eyes narrowed, and the other person seemed to be slapping her cheek again.

A crisp sound came to his ears. Xu Mengxi wanted to open his eyes, but the splitting headache and dizziness made this simple action extremely difficult.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　.

If he didn't agree to the old monster's request when he came to Di'an City, it would be fine if he encountered him somewhere else.

 No, she is still fighting!

 As long as he directly breaks through the Grand Master when he sees that the situation is not right, he can directly become invincible.

As the numb body sensation poured into my body like water flowing into a canal, the picture in front of me gradually became clearer.

The man's voice came faintly, but the timbre was completely different from Xu Mengxi's memory.

 As the black mist surged around him, the memories before coma began to recover quickly.

 He should not lose this battle.

“Xu Dutong, your way of thanking you is really special.”

 “Hey, aren’t you going to kill me?”

What a pity.

“Whether or not I will kill you depends on whether the female catcher is willing to cooperate.”

 His eyes fell on the man in front of him.

The cold black fog was constantly billowing around her, and a vague figure was crouching in front of her, as if a slap in the face was being slapped on her face.

 She grabbed it so hard that you could even hear the creaking sound of the bones rubbing against each other, as if she was afraid that the other person would run away.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was another "papa" sound.

  Did not continue to provoke. Provocation after defeat will only make people feel pitiful.

However, as soon as he entered the capital, he was beaten into this kind of behavior by this kid who came out of nowhere, and his life and death depended on the other person's thoughts.

At this moment, the person in front of her waved her palm in front of her eyes, and her voice came softly:

"Hello"

But even so, he actually has a chance to make a comeback.

 But there are no ifs in this world.

 The blurred vision prevented her from seeing the other person's face clearly, but she subconsciously felt that the other person was very familiar.

Qin Weishu gritted his teeth, grabbed the dust and forced his broken body up from the ground, and asked with a smile:

 After doing this, Xu Yuan took the secret reconnaissance saber and came to the place where Xu Mengxi was unconscious.

Looking at the sleeping face of the female catcher with frowning eyebrows, Xu Yuan leaned down and slowly stretched out his palm.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　.

 Four spiritual swords shot out directly from the black mist with the sound of breaking through the air!

 “Wake up.”

 That’s so ridiculous.

 “Pfft!”

 As the words fell,

As the thought flashed through his mind, Xu Mengxi suddenly turned over and jumped up. The sharp gaze in his beautiful eyes glanced around, but except for the black mist that surged from time to time, everything around him was so quiet.

Over-reliance on the locking energy of the anchor, using the Konglan Sword and Changing Kong Dao Yun too casually, and exposing the source energy reserves that exceeded the body-melting threshold directly led to the opponent's belief that he had a second Dao Yun.

These details added up to his downfall.

Thinking of these things, Qin Weishu suddenly burst into a low smile with unknown meaning.

 A casual response came from the depths of the black mist: "As for now, you'd better not move."

 Looking at each other for a moment,

Xu Yuan smiled and lifted the wrist that Xu Mengxi was holding firmly and shook it in front of her:

“Although cultivators rarely say that men and women are not intimate with each other, it still hurts to pinch you with Xu Dutong’s level of cultivation.”

ˆ “.”

There was a moment of silence, and Xu Mengxi let go of his hand in embarrassment, apologetically:

“I’m sorry. I mistook the young master for an old man from the past.”

How persistent is this woman towards him? She still misses her even after she dies.

Humbling in his heart, Xu Yuan said half-jokingly:

“Xu Dutong’s reaction seemed to be that he was afraid that he would run away?”

Xu Mengxi also didn’t pay attention to the ridicule and replied truthfully:

“A villain who relies on family affairs to show no law, but I do have some obsession with him, but it’s a pity that I heard that he had been assassinated some time ago.”

 After saying that, Xu Mengxi directly brought the topic back to the current situation:

"Sir, the situation is urgent. I wonder where Qin Weishu is now. Did he escape?"

Seeing this, Xu Yuan raised the blade held in his hand and gestured slightly to Xu Mengxi:

“I just want to tell you about this, Xu Dutong.”

Xu Mengxi's eyes instantly locked on the tip of his own sword.

There, it was soaked in traces of blood.

After a little hesitation, Xu Mengxi frowned and asked tentatively:

 “This should be my sword, but this blood”

 “Qin Weishu’s.” Xu Yuan answered simply.

Xu Mengxi's pupils shrank. The impact of the information caused many thoughts to surge into Xu Mengxi's mind instantly. There was a hint of urgency in her tone:

 “You killed him?!”

Xu Yuan looked stunned for a moment and asked pretending to be confused:

“This man openly attacked and killed an official in the street. Can’t he be killed?”

 “You can kill, but.”

Xu Mengxi’s voice rose slightly, but suddenly stopped.

 He pursed his lips and looked at the puzzled look in the brocade-robed young man's eyes, feeling a little complicated.

According to the law, those who help an official and cause the death of a criminal are not subject to punishment, but according to the procedure, they are still required to be imprisoned pending trial.

 And here lies the problem.

Qin Weishu was born in a sect family. Cases involving the life and death of the sect members could not be tried by Dali Temple, nor could the Ministry of Punishments. They had to be transferred to Xiancheng Pavilion for trial, and the prison where his killer was imprisoned was naturally also the prison of Xiancheng Pavilion. .

Given the consistent behavior of the officials in Xian Cheng Pavilion, even if they are not guilty according to the law, once they are in, it will be difficult to get out, and it is easy to "commit suicide out of fear of crime" in prison.

 According to legal procedures, she must also take this man back

Clenched his silver teeth hard, Xu Mengxi looked around at the black fog that blocked detection, clenched his fists, raised his eyes, and said:

“Sir, you were involved to save me. Please don’t spread this matter to anyone.”

As he spoke, Xu Mengxi opened his white palm, took the blade in Xu Yuan's hand, and said quickly in a serious tone:

"Qin Weishu is from a sect family. To kill him, young master, you need to hand it over to Xian Cheng Pavilion. They will never be kind. So I am the one who kills Qin Weishu today, not you. In this way, young master, you can just use Go to the prison of the Secret Investigation Department to await trial."

 After saying this long series of explanations, Xu Mengxi's serious eyes suddenly blinked, and then in Xu Yuan's eyes, he looked at the blood-stained saber in his hand bit by bit.

 No, no!

 Why did this guy use her knife to kill Qin Weishu?

Pursing her lips, Xu Mengxi turned her eyes back with a puzzled expression:

"you do this delibrately?"

ˆ “.”

ˆ “.”

"Ah"

Finally, Xu Yuan broke the silence with a smile, straightened his clothes and whispered:

"Since Xu Dutong is willing to take the blame, I don't have to waste any more words." "Wait a minute."

Xu Mengxi grabbed Xu Yuan's wrist again, and her soft voice dropped slightly:

"Since you have the strength to take my blade, Qin Weishu should have been seriously injured, so why kill him?"

He said,

She glanced at the black fog floating around:

“Besides, the aftermath that hit me just now was done intentionally by you, sir, right?”

The words fell,

Xu Yuan opened his mouth and was about to tell what he had prepared, when he saw Xu Mengxi in front of him suddenly taking action.

 At any sign, Xu Mengxi suddenly grabbed Xu Yuan's face.

 The feeling when she first woke up caused her heartbeat to speed up unconsciously.

Although Xu Mengxi was seriously injured, his speed was still very fast, and Grandmaster Qiji suddenly broke out in an instant.

Although Xu Yuan could vaguely see clearly, the incident happened suddenly and the difference in cultivation between the two meant that his body had no time to react.

He could use Tuxu Slash to hide, but he could not use Tuxu Slash in front of Xu Mengxi.

Just as he leaned back slightly, the side of Xu Yuan's face was already grasped by Xu Mengxi's slender fingers.

Xu Mengxi gritted his teeth and his hands surged with energy:

“Xu Changtian, I knew it wouldn’t be that easy for you. Eh?”

  “.”Xu Mengxi.

Xu Yuan frowned and looked at the female catcher who was pulling his face with her hands. There was a hint of dissatisfaction in her words:

“Xu Dutong, what are you doing?”

  “.”Xu Mengxi.

 “I, myself, that”

Xu Mengxi's red lips parted slightly, her face gradually turned red, and her sharp eyes instantly became erratic: "You and I... are just."

 “Don’t let go? It hurts a lot.”

ˆ “.”

Hearing this, Xu Mengxi quickly let go and took two steps back. The ponytail tied behind her head drew an arc in the air, and she bowed directly towards Xu Yuan at a ninety-degree angle:

"I'm sorry! Master, I...I'm a little confused."

Xu Yuan looked at the ponytail of the female catcher with her head lowered, her face was calm, but she was already cursing in her heart.

 Fuck, I was almost scared to death by this bitch.

 Your instinct for catching a head is so accurate?

 Fortunately, the quality of the human skin mask provided by my family did not cut corners.

I think so in my heart, but I still have to continue acting.

Xu Yuan reached out and rubbed his somewhat red face, speaking calmly:

"It seems that the third son of the prime minister is the old man that Xu Dutong is worried about, but I remember that he was assassinated not long ago. That Xu Gong killed many people for this reason years ago."

ˆ “.”

Xu Mengxi lowered her head and said nothing, the blush spreading from her cheeks to her ears.

Xu Yuan subconsciously wanted to reach out and pat the other person's shoulder to signal that he didn't care, but he resisted this subconscious habit, turned around, and said softly:

"Xu Dutong doesn't need to worry about it. I'm not the kind of person who cares about everything. I'll take you to Qin Weishu."

 After saying that, Xu Yuan walked towards Qin Weishu's place.

Seeing this, Xu Mengxi sheathed the sword and followed quickly. He hesitated a little, but apologized and asked:

"I'm sorry. But can I ask the young master why you killed Qin Weishu since you had the energy to spare?"

 “Who said I killed him?”

Xu Yuan did not look back, but led the way while saying softly:

"The Qin family in Jiangnan are not easy to deal with. The cause and effect of killing him is too involved. Killing him for a momentary dispute would be a bit too much."

“Did the young master knock him out?”

 “No, I destroyed his Dantian.”

  “.”Xu Mengxi.

Seeing that Xu Mengxi stopped talking, Xu Yuan turned his eyes and whispered:

“I didn’t want to be killed for showing mercy like you, so I just killed him.

"As for the soul skill that hit you earlier, it was indeed my doing, but it was done as a last resort. This person is very strong, and I have no time to care about him. I have already used my best strength."

 Speaking of this, Xu Yuan paused for a moment and suddenly smiled:

"Xu Dutong, if I have a conflict with the second young master of the Qin family in order to save you, you should take over this responsibility, right?"

ˆ “.”

Xu Mengxi felt that the temperament of the brocade-robed young master in front of her was a bit awkward.

 It's a bit shameless, but it's reasonable.

 Either good or evil.

Humbling slightly in his heart, Xu Mengxi nodded and said softly:

“This is natural, but he may not necessarily identify Qin Weishu as me.”

Xu Yuan smiled slightly and looked back at the woman behind him deeply.

The black eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Seeing this look, Xu Mengxi was immediately alert and said:

“Sir, although you saved me, since Qin Weishu is not dead now, he needs to be judged by the law.”

"I haven't said anything yet, right? Why do you assume I want to kill him?"

 Xu Yuan shook his head and reminded:

"I just wanted to ask you what you can do. I'm not familiar with the Great Yan Law, and I don't know if there are any loopholes that can be exploited."

Xu Mengxi felt relieved when he heard this. He subconsciously followed the other person's words and thought about it for a moment, and suddenly said softly:

“There is a way, but the certainty is not high.”

 “What?” Xu Yuan raised his eyebrows.

Xu Mengxi subconsciously raised her hand and touched the soft ponytail on the back of her head, and said reluctantly:

 “Prime Minister’s Mansion.”

“Huh? What does this matter have to do with the Prime Minister’s Office?”

“Young Master may not be aware that a major case occurred in Jingjiang Prefecture during the Beginning of Autumn more than two years ago.”

Xu Mengxi said simply: "That incident caused a lot of enmity between the Prime Minister's Office and the Qin family."

 Speaking of this, Xu Mengxi subconsciously raised his eyes and glanced at the other person's expression. After seeing that the other person's expression was as usual, he continued:

"Our biggest problem now is actually that Qin Weishu comes into contact with people from the Qin family and tells you what you have done. All we have to do is drag him to the City Defense Department and my colleagues from the Secret Investigation Department, and we will go directly without giving him a chance to contact the outside world. Take him back to prison.

"The Prime Minister's Office will definitely find a way to get involved if he knows about this. When the time comes, Qin Weishu will probably never be able to get out of prison again."

An imperceptible surprise flashed across Xu Yuan's eyes when he heard this.

Things behind the Jingjiang Mansion incident are all secrets in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Where did this woman get this information?

Thinking in his mind, Xu Yuan said with a sigh:

"I have heard about the changes in Jingjiang Mansion. Xu Xiangguo's mansion in Jingjiang was completely destroyed, but I didn't expect that there was such a secret behind this incident."

 “I also learned about this not long ago.”

Speaking of this, Xu Mengxi lowered his eyes slightly:

"If I hadn't known that the Prime Minister's Office had a grudge against the Qin family, I wouldn't have come here to arrest Qin Weishu."

 Someone specifically informed Xu Mengxi of the news

 When he contacted Qin Weishu about the time of his arrival in Beijing, it was as if he wanted Xu Mengxi to arrest him.

and,

Today seems to be quite a coincidence.

Qin Weishu happened to bump into Mu Zhiyun, a wealthy lady, who was out custom-made tattoos in Huaijiu Lane today.

With this information secretly noted in his mind, Xu Yuanshun asked:

  “Why?”

 After a moment of silence, Xu Mengxi tightened her grip on the handle of the knife at her waist. A smile appeared on her beautiful face, but the smile was a little astringent:

“Sir, if I don’t use the power of the Prime Minister, even if I arrest Qin Weishu, he will be released in a few days.”

The words fell,

Xu Yuan looked at the other party's complicated expression and did not answer any more.

 It wasn't until he came to the pothole where Qin Weishu was that his voice came faintly.

It seems like a murmur, but also like an admonishment:

“Xu Dutong understood that flexibility is not something to be ashamed of.

“The justice done by someone who kills with a borrowed knife is also justice.”
