low-key is king

Chapter 86
"I... I said!"

Like Geng Lie back then, Kang Xian also failed to resist the extreme pain caused by the severe poison. After persisting for more than ten breaths, he finally compromised.

"I accidentally heard Master Huaguang mention that the City Lord's Mansion...may take action against Zhendong Wang's Mansion!"

Kang Xian felt that the numbness in his body had eased a bit, and he no longer dared to force himself, but when he told the so-called secret, he obviously saw a cold light emanating from the hideous mask opposite him.

"Is this considered a secret?"

Lu Xun was indeed a little disappointed. Originally, he had expected that this guy who was backed by the Chief Poison Master of the City Lord's Mansion would tell some secrets that he didn't know, but he didn't expect it to be such a general thing.

In fact, except for a few people, almost no one knew about the fact that the City Lord's Mansion was going to take action against the Zhendong Palace, but it happened that Lu Xun was one of the few people.

In the eyes of ordinary people in Watanabe Castle, and even martial artists of the first and second ranks, this is a big deal.

After all, the current Zhendong Prince's Mansion has not been cut off as a prince. From the perspective of rank, it must be above the Lord's Mansion of Watanabe City.

Didn't look at Gu Qi who was struggling to sit up over there, his eyes full of shock?

This is not a secret, what is a secret?
Hearing the cold voice coming from under the mask, Kang Xian seemed a little helpless, and felt that the itching in his body seemed to be about to move again, and his mind was spinning extremely fast at this moment.

"I... I also know that they want to kidnap the second son of the palace and force King Zhendong to submit!"

Kang Xian racked his brains, and finally dug out a somewhat uncertain fact from the depths of his memory, but at this time, he undoubtedly became the last straw.

Whether that's true or not, let's talk about it first.

"Kidnapping the second son of the palace?"

On the face under Lu Xun's mask, there was an extremely strange look, and he secretly thought that those big bosses of the City Lord's Mansion really have discernment.

But Lu Xun also knew that in the eyes of Yang Xun and Master Huaguang, he was just a dandy who couldn't help himself.

Their real target is Lu Mingyang, the king of Zhendong who once shocked Xuanyang Kingdom.

Logically speaking, this would be an excellent solution.

Now the prince of Zhendong is insane, if he can't be cured, the second son Lu Xun who has returned to the palace will be the only heir to the prince.

Using the heir of the palace to threaten Lu Mingyang from the Zhendong Palace to compromise, the possibility of success is extremely high, and even if it is not good, Lu Mingyang will be tempted to make a move, and the City Lord's Palace will have a great upper hand.

It's just that what the two in the City Lord's Mansion don't know is that in the current Zhendong Prince's Mansion, it may be easier to kidnap the Zhendong King Lu Mingyang directly than kidnap the second son of the Prince's Mansion, right?

Moreover, the City Lord's Mansion will definitely not make a move in the open, and will definitely make some insidious plan in secret, such as luring Lu Xun somewhere first, and then implementing the plan without knowing it.

"Well, it is indeed a secret, and you have passed the level!"

These thoughts flashed through Lu Xun's mind, and then the words that came out of his mouth made Kang Xian ecstatic.

He subconsciously felt that his life was saved, but he ignored the other sentence the other party said just now.

chap!
The sharp thorn that was already leaning against Kang Xian's throat pierced directly in the next moment, causing a look of extreme disbelief and a trace of extreme regret to appear in the eyes of this three-realm martial artist.

Originally, Kang Xian used the Shagu Banner as a bait to lure the judge out, but now even the fisherman who hooked him was swallowed up by the other party, and even his life was given here.

At this moment, Kang Xian undoubtedly hated the Master Huaguang who asked him to come. The information given by the other party was very inaccurate, and this was the key to his failure in this mission.

Master Huaguang's information to Kang Xian only said that the judge is a second-level consummated martial artist, and probably a second-rank poison master with a third-rank poison. Kang Xian didn't pay attention to these.

But today's battle made De Kangxian understand that whether it was the information he had learned or the information he hadn't learned, the master Huaguang had far underestimated the strength of the judge.

It was these unpredictable changes that brought Dekang Xian to his current fate. How could he be reconciled to the inexplicable death of a dignified three-realm consummated martial artist?

"lucky!
After stabbing Kang Xian to death, Lu Xun also summed up the gains and losses of this battle.

In the end, it was concluded that if Gu Qi hadn't suddenly made a desperate move just now, I am afraid that this battle would never end so easily, and it might even capsize in the gutter.

"This second-grade solid pill, take it quickly to recover from the injury!"

Thinking of the ancient flag, Lu Xun turned his head and approached quickly, sensing the other party's injury, he stretched out his hand and wiped it on his wrist, and a pale yellow pill appeared in his palm.

"Thank you so much!"

At this time, Gu Qi naturally wouldn't doubt it, his face was full of gratitude, the other party had avenged himself, and he himself was not dead, this was the best result.

As for the serious injury this time, Gu Qi couldn't care less about whether there was any root cause of the disease.

And when he took the yellow solid pill, he immediately felt a majestic medicinal power spread, and he couldn't help being surprised and delighted.

"This benefactor named judge, isn't he still a doctor?"

Gu Qi guessed the truth as soon as he guessed it. There are not no alchemists in the world who practice both medicine and poison, but they are extremely rare. I didn't expect that he would meet one today. It has to be said that it is an honor.

Especially when thinking that the other party is still a second-rank formation master, Gu Qi felt extremely emotional. With such a talent as Xin Dao, given time, the future is bound to be boundless.

The solid pill refined by Lu Xun himself has excellent medicinal effects, and it has reached a perfect state.

It is not impossible to sell ten to twenty thousand top-grade gold beads at the auction of the International Chamber of Commerce.

Therefore, not long after taking the solid pill, Gu Qi's injuries recovered by at least half, which made his face even more joyful, and he barely stood up, and fell to the ground with a bow towards the black-clothed judge in front of him.

"Benefactor avenged me, from now on, Gu Qi swears allegiance to benefactor!"

Gu Qi is indeed a person who knows how to repay his kindness, and he also knows that if he relies on himself, he may not be able to avenge this blood revenge in 100 years. These words are impressively from the heart and sincere.

"I said you don't need to swear allegiance to the death, do you remember what I said before?"

Lu Xun waved his hand, and then brought up the old matter again. Today's Zhendong Palace is surrounded by wind, and Gu Qi is a martial artist of the three realms. If he can be absorbed into the Palace, it will be able to supplement the strength of the Palace.

Moreover, Lu Xun could also see Gu Qi's character, it was indeed because he was blinded by hatred before, and his temper was a bit perverse.

Now that the boulder has been moved away and his state of mind has been sublimated, it must be more effective in practicing in the future.

"Yes, I'm going to pack up now, and I'm about to go to Zhendong Prince's Mansion!"

Gu Qi didn't hesitate at all, and after remembering the past, he bowed to Lu Xun again. In fact, he had nothing to clean up, and he lived alone with nothing to worry about.

"Hey, I don't know what the father's expression will be when he sees this martial artist of the three realms?"

Thinking of this, the corners of Lu Xun's mouth under the mask could not help but curl up.

In this Watanabe city, martial artists of the three realms are not Chinese cabbages. Didn't you see that the current commander of the palace, Chen Xian, is only a beginner in the three realms?

…………

Zhendong Prince's Mansion, the second son is hospitalized!

In the courtyard where Lu Xun lived, there were several people sitting or standing at the moment.

Sitting facing each other and playing chess were an old man and a young man, the younger one was Lu Linger, and the older one was Lu Mingyang, King of Zhendong.

Asha, the book boy, stood behind Lu Linger, glanced at the chessboard from time to time, and on the window sill not far from him, there was a black cat lazily basking in the sun, and glanced this way from time to time.

In addition to these three, there is also a young man, Lu Zheng, the son of the royal family, who seems to be studying a flower in the flower bed next to him at the moment, studying it with great interest.

And behind Lu Mingyang, stood the side concubine Xu Fengyi impressively.

She also seemed to be very interested in the chessboard on the table, or she had never seen such a chessboard before, but it was made by the second young master.

"Hee hee, I'm jumping!"

The smile on Lu Linger's face couldn't be concealed, she stretched out her small hand, and jumped forward obliquely with a chess piece engraved with the word "horse", making Zhendong King Lu Mingyang's brows wrinkle into the shape of Sichuan.

After coming to Lu Xun's place that day, Lu Mingyang was a bit bored while recovering from his injuries, so he often came here to play a few games of chess with his little granddaughter Lu Linger.

After being taught chess by Lu Linger, Lu Mingyang couldn't get enough of it.

It's just that his chess skills are limited, even if Lu Linger is only a seven-year-old girl, he still loses more than wins, which makes him very depressed.

"I fly like..."

"My lord, you can't fly an elephant. The next step is for her to drive a chariot, and you will be dead!"

Seeing King Zhendong reach out to pick up the left elephant, the corner of Asha's mouth on the opposite side couldn't help but twitch, but then he heard the voice of his side concubine Xu Fengyi, which made him slightly stunned.

To be honest, Asha didn't have much affection for this side concubine, and the young master would never hide anything from him, so he knew that Xu Fengyi was actually the eyes and ears of the saintess of Luoyou Mountain.

But after the two sides talked about it that day, Asha also knew that Xu Fengyi was only doing it for the good of King Zhendong, so he could only turn a blind eye.

However, when Lu Xun explained the chess rules to Asha, he emphasized the most that he was a real gentleman who watched chess without speaking. Now that Concubine Xu suddenly spoke, wouldn't it be a violation of the rules?

Fortunately, both Lu Linger and Lu Mingyang are beginners, and they don't care about so many rules.

Especially Lu Mingyang, after hearing Concubine Xu's words, he frowned even tighter, and even turned his head to ask: "Then which step do you think you should take?"

This undoubtedly made Asha curl his lips again, and even the big black cat basking in the sun on the window sill had a trace of disdain in his cat's eyes.

It's just that with its chess strength, even Lu Xun is no match for it, so why would it care about these rookies?
