Fighter of the Destiny

The morning light was getting brighter, the morning wind was rising, and the green seedlings that had just reached the knee no longer swayed. Xue He let go of his right hand, and the broken arm was no longer bleeding. He picked up seven knives from the ground and slowly put them back into the sheath behind him. Throughout the process, pain flashed across his pale face from time to time. It was obvious that these simple movements were extremely difficult for him now.

Su Li and Chen Changsheng had already left on the deer, but he did not leave. Instead, he just sat down, bandaging the wound and thinking about something. After the Ivy Banquet and the Imperial Examination, Chen Changsheng's reputation had already spread far and wide beyond Kyoto. His brother Xue Xingchuan specifically mentioned this young man in his letter to him. Xue He knew that this boy was the youngest dean of the National Education Academy in history, and could even be said to represent the national religion and the old royal family's voice to the Holy Queen. However, this young man should be undergoing trials in the Zhou Garden, so why did he suddenly appear here? Tianliang County North, together with Su Li?

Of course, the main reason why he did not leave immediately at this moment was not to think, but to wait for the assassin hiding in the blue field to appear. He didn't know who the assassin was. Although he got Su Li's whereabouts from the other party, he only knew that since the assassin didn't stay away, it meant that he was in danger. When leaving, Su Li said to Chen Changsheng However, the assassin would most likely take advantage of Xue He's serious injury to kill him, and then blame Chen Changsheng for this matter - Xue He himself thought so.

Suddenly, without any warning, a breeze blew up in the quiet wilderness. The green sorghum poles bowed slightly in the wind, revealing a figure that looked like a stone.

Suddenly, the figure disappeared again, and it must have been closer.

Xue He reached his right hand behind him and held the handle of the knife.

As a great general of the Great Zhou Dynasty, even if he is unable to fight anymore, he will still die in the battle. If he is really destined to die in the hands of these evil people, it is better to die under his own sword.

The breeze continued to blow, but the assassin never appeared.

I don't know how much time passed, but when the sun was getting stronger and Xue He, who had lost too much blood, could no longer hold on, he suddenly discovered that the assassin was gone.

Why did the assassin leave? Xue He didn't understand, so he stood up with difficulty while supporting his body with a knife. Then he saw someone writing a line of very clear words on the ground not far ahead with the edge of a sword.

The assassin probably saw that line of writing, so he didn't take action in the end.

Liu Qing, Zhou Tong will know what you have done.

Xue He's expression changed slightly. He did not expect that the assassin turned out to be the legendary Liu Qing, nor did he expect that Su Li and Chen Changsheng would leave such a sentence before leaving.

It was these words that saved his life.

…

…

At a lake five hundred miles north of Tianliang County, two hairy deer were drinking water with their heads down. Chen Changsheng was following Su Li's instructions to wash the grass and mountain fruits that the deer would eat later. The lake water was a little cool. He looked at Su Li who was resting by the lake and asked curiously: Who is Liu Qing?

The words outside the sorghum land were written by him with a dagger, but the content was said by Su Li. He had no idea what that sentence meant.

Su Li said: It's that guy in the birch forest and sorghum field who never dares to show his face.

Chen Changsheng was a little surprised and said, That assassin? Is he very powerful?

Su Li said casually: When those old guys in Tianji Pavilion were bored, they secretly ranked the killers on the mainland, and Liu Qing ranked third.

Third on the killer list...

Chen Changsheng thought about being secretly followed by such a terrifying assassin all the way. He suddenly felt that the wind blowing on the lake became a little cold, and subconsciously looked around.

It's just that... the terrifying assassin who ranks third on the killer list has such an ordinary name? He was a little puzzled.

Su Li opened his eyes and said: The more professional the assassin, the less likely he will attract attention. The great assassin who has always been at the top of the list doesn't even have a name.

Chen Changsheng thought this sentence sounded a bit weird. Who was the assassin at the top of the killer list? Su Li could actually praise him for his greatness? You must know that even the Holy Queen Tianhai and the Pope did not get much respect from Su Li's words. He couldn't figure it out, so he asked instead: What do you mean by asking me to leave that sentence?

Xue He is Xue Xingchuan's younger brother, and Xue Xingchuan is Zhou Tong's only friend. If Zhou Tong knows that Liu Qing killed Xue He, Liu Qing will definitely end up miserable.

Liu Qing is also afraid of Master Zhou Tong?

The more shady a person is, the more afraid he is of Zhou Tong.

Including that amazing assassin at the top of the killer list?

Of course that one is a special case.

But senior, you said before that after he killed Xue He, he could pretend that it was me. Since he is the third assassin on the killer list, there must be a way to arrange it without any doubt.

I know he is Liu Qing, so as long as I am alive, Zhou Tong will know.

Lord Zhou Tong, will you believe what you say?

There is no need to believe it. It is enough that Zhou Tong suspects that Liu Qing killed him.

But... there is no evidence.

When does Zhou Tong need evidence when he is doing something?

Chen Changsheng thought about the terrifying rumors about Master Zhou Tong, and thought that it was indeed true.

People in Kyoto say that Zhou Tong's name can stop babies from crying at night, and now it seems that it can also deter an assassin who ranks third on the killer list.

He said: I still don't understand why the assassin wanted to kill Xue He.

Su Li looked at him and raised his eyebrows and asked, I don't even understand why you didn't kill Xue He.

God General Xue He is here to kill senior, not me. As you said, after knowing who I am, he obviously has no intention to kill me. In this case, he has no way to kill senior anymore. You, why do I have to kill him? Senior... you seem to have forgotten that when it comes to camps, God General Xue He and I should be closer than you.

Chen Changsheng said: On the contrary, since senior wanted me to kill Xue He, why did he ask me to leave those words before leaving?

Su Li said: Since you are unwilling to kill someone, of course you have to let him live and be kind enough to avoid suffering a disadvantage.

Chen Changsheng didn't know how to answer this sentence, so he said instead: The assassin doesn't know when he will take action.

He looked at the lake in the sunset and was very worried. Li Shan's junior uncle's reputation would naturally be stronger than Zhou Tong's, but now Su Li no longer had that kind of intimidation, especially after he blocked Xue He's knife for Chen Changsheng in the early morning.

Assassin is the profession that requires the most success rate, so it must be the most conservative.

Su Li looked at the sunset in the lake and said: Before I fully confirm my injury and the upper limit of your ability, he will not show up, let alone take action. He will only wait like a retarded person.
