At this mont.
In the family residential area of the Central City Martial Mansion.
Inside a approximately 300 square ter apartnt...
Wu Hongzhou’s face was pale as he removed his shirt, allowing Sun Qingrou to apply dicine and wrap bandages for him.
After a night of fleeing, his injuries were so severe that he collapsed upon entering the house...
Sun Qingrou was terrified, initially thinking that soone knew her husband had died and ca to bully her, a lonely widow. Thus, she hit him several tis before realizing that this was her only current support and benefactor.
Only then did she painstakingly drag him inside.
"What exactly happened? Didn’t you say you accidentally discovered Xu Lingjun’s whereabouts and wanted to capture him alive to force out the whereabouts of Old Xia’s inheritance?"
Sun Qingrou asked while cautiously applying dicine to Wu Hongzhou, puzzled: "It’s just a small matter, why is your na on the Imperial Capital’s wanted list now? Those who know will understand you went to capture Xu Lingjun, others might think you attacked the son of His Majesty, causing a great disaster."
"How would I know what’s happening?"
Wu Hongzhou angrily turned around and cursed, then grimaced in pain and said, annoyed: "I only attacked Xu Lingjun, but it was like stirring a hornet’s nest... A master even more powerful than myself sprang up out of nowhere. I used all my strength and couldn’t gain the upper hand. It was only at the very end that I realized it was all a misunderstanding."
What is there not to understand now?
At that ti, the two of them were sitting opposite each other.
My target was Xu Lingjun, and that person’s target was undoubtedly the young man opposite Xu Lingjun... But they were both behind another person, appearing to attack simultaneously towards each other.
"Damn, it was a real mistake this ti. If we both hadn’t had the thought of retreating, we might have fought to mutual destruction by now."
Wu Hongzhou breathed heavily and said with regret: "I missed the best opportunity and ended up bringing this upon myself for nothing... It’s awful, I must quickly contact the Sect and explain this clearly; if I really get hunted by the Divine Soldier Guard, I’m finished."
"Then hurry up."
Sun Qingrou said, "I just lost my husband and don’t want my lover to beco a wanted criminal. If I end up getting caught with you, what will happen to Old Xia’s assets and properties? I still need to have a kid for Old Xia... Then, I can rightfully make use of his stuff."
Wu Hongzhou exclaid, "Is it still possible to have one now?"
Sun Qingrou defended herself, "I can have a caesarean section early; no one knows the exact timing anyway. If I say the child is Old Xia’s, no one can check Old Xia’s remains for a DNA test, can they?"
At the sa ti.
Elsewhere
"Damn it, ssed up."
In a dark corner.
Roger Sparrow finally managed to shake off his pursuers.
He didn’t have the sa luck as Wu Hongzhou... He could only take out his own dicine, apply it while clenching his teeth, and feel regret for his impetuous actions just now.
He should have noticed earlier.
That person was no bodyguard at all.
With the enemy in front, he lost the basic judgnt... Ending up making such a big mistake and missing the best opportunity.
Now he was being targeted by the Divine Soldier Guard.
And that Han Yun City might also beco wary... In that case, it seems he needs to alter the assassination plan.
"Anyway, both have to die. It doesn’t matter much whom to kill first."
Roger tightly wrapped the wound torn by Wu Hongzhou’s finger with bandages. Hearing sharp barkings of hunting dogs in the distance... he knew his place was no longer safe.
He imdiately flashed away, running through the dark alley towards the distance.
The most important thing now was not revenge but to preserve his resources first.
If possible, maybe seek an alliance with the expert from the Cuowu Sect... Their targets might be the sa person.
After a busy day.
When Su Huanqing returned, dragging her tired feet, she found Wang Qingya laying idly on the sofa, watching TV, with her long slender legs hanging like noodles.
Su Huanqing quietly asked, "Where’s he?"
Wang Qingya said casually, "In the bedroom, seems to be focusing on studying Martial Skills, so I might sleep in your room tonight to give him so peace."
Su Huanqing was shocked: "Sleep with ?"
She seed a bit incredulous.
Though still a novice, hanging around with Wang Qingya for years... how could a woman remain so pure-hearted?
She knew well that won could be voracious, and Wang Qingya and Xu Lingjun, who were just together, should be extrely passionate. Yet Wang Qingya suddenly suggested sleeping with her.
Wang Qingya complained, "Who told you not to co in and help at the ti."
"Shut up!"
Su Huanqing lunged forward, covering Wang Qingya’s mouth.
This woman never knows when to keep quiet, and now Xiaojun is still here. If he hears this...
She quickly said, "You don’t need to stay with either, I’m tired of eavesdropping on you two... I was late because I was dealing with my dorm issues, and the Pavilion Master agreed to assign a dorm. I’m moving out tonight."
She scratched her head in confusion and said, "The Pavilion Master ntioned a housing shortage before. I don’t know why there’s suddenly a vacancy, and a fully furnished one at that. How coincidental."
"That’s great news, I’ll move in with you; let Xiaojun have this place. He seems to have gotten into a fight today, looking rather serious. He’s been flipping through Martial Tao classics and thinking nonstop since he’s back, likely badly bullied."
Wang Qingya sighed, "Xiaojun has grown up. I asked him, but he wouldn’t say anything... Despite having no injuries, the holes in his clothes are undeniable. He probably wants to hone his Martial Skills to recover his dignity, and as his sister, I should support him."
Su Huanqing exclaid, "Xiaojun was beaten? That guy is a bastard for laying hands on Xiaojun? He... he actually hit him?"
Wang Qingya stared in curiosity: "Why can’t it be a woman?"
Su Huanqing retorted, "Would a woman be willing to hit him?"
"True."
"Ah-choo~~!"
Miles away.
Inside a luxurious mansion.
Han Yun City suddenly sneezed, rubbed his nose, but was quickly stopped by the Imperial Physician.
"Your Highness must not move, your palm ridians are blocked; it seems to have endured a lot of True Qi impact in a short ti, causing ridian damage."
The Imperial Physician was seriously examining Han Yun City’s injuries, exclaiming: "Furthermore, there are multiple fractures throughout your body. Your Highness, who beat you so badly? Should we inform the Divine Soldier Guard?"
"No need, I’ve already inford the Divine Soldier Guard; those two culprits are being hunted."
Han Yun City vaguely said, "I mainly want to know how many days for recovery?"
"With Your Highness’s recovery speed, at least seven days."
"Alright, prescribe the dicine."
"Yes."
Han Yun City couldn’t help scratching his head in frustration. The fight was exhilarating... But why did I end up with blocked ridians after delivering so many punches?
Yet that kid remained lively, capable of tearing at with too much force for eating.
Forget it... It’s just the right ti to heal and break through to the Profound Realm.
When facing those two assassins, even if I still can’t beat them, I’ll have the ability to escape.
Han Yun City sighed, thinking he needs to work hard... Invincible in the Martial Mansion, but once out, those outside have been eating more rice for decades.
They won’t talk fairness with you!
To surpass them, trendous effort is required.
By afternoon.
A considerate servant ca to see Han Yun City, holding a parcel, respectfully saying: "Your Highness, upon hearing of your injury during the assault, the Eldest Princess has specially sent soone to deliver top-quality Blood Crystal Jade Marrow, highly effective for ridian injuries. She also sends her apologies, saying it’s her oversight, and she’ll take full responsibility."
Han Yun City paused upon hearing this, a subtle and unfathomable look in his eyes.
He said, "I understand, leave the item here, and tell her I’m not blaming her."
"Yes."
"One more thing."
"The Imperial Physician who treated today was rather disrespectful. Expel him from the mansion."
"Yes!"
The servant responded.
