Deep in the Dingzhou camp prison.

Yan Xiaoyi was stripped of her shirt and tied to a wooden frame. She was covered in blood, but she still kept cursing.

"Boss, this kid's bones are too hard. He was so seriously injured and beaten by us for so long. We are all exhausted. The more he scolds, the more energetic he gets."

The prison head drank several sips of water: "You didn't know this, but this guy is a ninth-level master. Not to mention these skin injuries, even if all the bones in his body are broken, it won't take a few months to recover."

"Ah? Ninth-level master, let's treat him like this in case he goes out..."

"Hey, look at how cowardly you are, don't worry, the boss has spoken, this kid won't survive tonight."

Although Yan Xiaoyi's vitality was wasted and all the bones in his body were broken, his hearing and eyesight were not compromised. Hearing this, he immediately shouted to the two of them: "Do you want to be promoted and make a fortune?"

"Nonsense, who doesn't want to get promoted and make a fortune? But we are born with such a miserable fate, and we are not that lucky."

"Now there is such an opportunity in front of you. It depends on whether you dare to take a gamble."

The prison head spat disdainfully: "You don't want us to let you go, do you? Stop dreaming, this is the Dingzhou Military Camp. If you have the strength of the ninth grade now, you may still have a chance, but you now

If you are a useless person, why should you escape?"

Yan Xiaoyi shook his head and said: "Don't worry, I don't want to run away. You just need to help me bring a letter and deliver it to someone."

The jailer was about to refuse, but the cell leader grabbed him, then walked up to Yan Xiaoyi and said with a smile: "Oh? What are the benefits of doing this?"

"As long as you send the letter to this person, she will satisfy you whatever you want, and even grant you a title, so that your descendants will be nobles for generations to come."

"A knighthood?"

The cell boss and the jailer looked at each other, and their hearts skipped a beat.

"You didn't lie to us?"

"I'm about to die, what good will it do me to lie to you?"

After Yan Xiaoyi finished writing the blood letter, the cell leader winked at the jailer and the two walked out of the dungeon.

"Boss, is this kid reliable? If the superiors find out, we will lose our heads."

"Nonsense, this guy is not a good guy at first glance, and he is even knighted. If we don't deliver the letter, he will be wiped out from his neck."

"Ah, what should we do?"

"Are you stupid? You must be taking this blood book to claim the reward from the general."

"Boss, you are still smart."

"That's right, the old man eats more salt than you eat rice. Let's learn from it."

After Qin Ming looked at the blood letter written by Yan Xiaoyi, his hands were shaking involuntarily. A name that he had not expected appeared in the letter. Originally, he thought that Yan Xiaoyi was just the eldest princess who intercepted Qin Hao halfway.

The idea was unexpected, but it actually involved the prince.

"Who else has seen this blood letter besides you?"

"Report to the general, we will report to you as soon as we get this blood letter."

"Yes, General, that guy still wants to bribe us. We have received so much favor from the General, how could we betray you?"

"Well, well done, go down and receive the reward."

"Thank you, General."

When the two of them exited the camp with a lot of gratitude, Qin Ming winked at his bodyguard, who nodded without a trace. Soon, two muffled sounds were heard outside the camp.

Late at night, Qin Ming came to the dungeon alone. When Yan Xiaoyi heard the footsteps, he sneered without raising his head.

"The general is finally willing to come see me."

Qin Ming suddenly realized that he had been fooled, and said with a dark face: "Did you write that blood letter to me on purpose?"

"General, do you really think that boy will let you go?" Yan Xiaoyi stared at Qin Ming with cold eyes and said word by word.

Qin Ming snorted coldly: "As long as you die without any evidence, what's more, now that the national war is about to break out, Qin is in charge of Dingzhou's 200,000 troops, even if the lawsuit goes to His Majesty, what can he do to me?"

"Haha~~~" Yan Xiaoyi laughed wildly.

"Humph, what's so funny."

"Do you know where that boy's strength is now? The ninth level peak! He is only one step away from the Grand Master." Yan Xiaoyi said with a smile: "Do you know what the Grand Grandmaster means to Qingguo?"

"The third Grand Master of the Qing Kingdom will soon dominate the world. Do you think His Majesty will use your life in exchange for the Grand Master's return?"

Qin Ming's eyes widened, as if he had been struck by lightning. He naturally knew what the great master meant. By then, Emperor Qing would probably not have to take action himself. His great-uncle would also push him out and let Qin Hao do whatever he wanted for the sake of the Qin family's century-old foundation.

.

"Grand Master, how easy is it?"

Yan Xiaoyi saw through Qin Ming's pretentiousness at a glance: "It's not easy to become a grand master, but don't forget that he is only eighteen years old now and is already at the peak of the ninth rank. Do you dare to bet on such a peerless genius?"

Qin Ming was silent. Yes, being at the peak of the ninth rank at the age of eighteen is such an amazing talent. Even the four great masters today have not reached such a state at this age, right?

"A bunch of lunatics, why do you want to provoke him, why do you want to drag me down!"

Qin Ming went crazy and beat Yan Xiaoyi with his fists like raindrops. Yan Xiaoyi, who was already scarred, almost fainted from the beating.

Although he was severely beaten, Yan Xiaoyi's eyes were full of excitement. When Qin Ming finished venting, he spit out a mouthful of blood and showed a scary smile.

"General, you won't lose on this deal. As long as that prince ascends the throne, you will be the minister of the dragon, and your future achievements may not be greater than that of your great-uncle. I think the general is not willing to succumb to others for the rest of his life, right?

"

A trace of hesitation flashed in Qin Ming's eyes: "How do I know if you are lying to me? What if all this is just the intention of the eldest princess and has nothing to do with the prince..."

"Does the general know where the five thousand black-armored cavalry dispatched by Yan came from?"

"Could it be..."

The moon was dark and the wind was high. Yan Xiaoyi put on the clothes of a messenger, took Qin Ming's token, and left the military camp alone. It was during the national war. This kind of thing was not uncommon. He guarded the camp gate.

The soldiers did not pay attention.

The horse was galloping so hard that Yan Xiaoyi's internal organs were almost shaken to pieces, but the consciousness of survival forced him to suppress the severe pain in his body.

"Qin Hao, I will definitely get this debt back from you one day!"

Just when Yan Xiaoyi turned around and continued to whip his horse and whip, a figure suddenly appeared in his field of vision.

Yan Xiaoyi stared at him as if he had seen a ghost.

He didn't come back to his senses until he stepped off the horse and let out a painful cry, causing Yan Xiaoyi to be completely thrown off the horse.

"You...why are you here?"

Qin Hao walked up to Yan Xiaoyi with a smile on his face: "You don't really think I will let you go so easily, do you?"

"So, this is all a temptation?"

"That's right. Speaking of which, I would like to thank you for proving a person who must be killed for me."

In fact, when Qin Hao handed Yan Xiaoyi to Qin Ming, there were only three outcomes, one: Yan Xiaoyi died in the Dingzhou dungeon, and the other: Yan Xiaoyi escaped from the heavily guarded Dingzhou military camp. These two outcomes

No matter which one it is, it proves that Qin Ming participated in this interception.

Only if Yan Xiaoyi is handed over to the forensic institute alive and still refuses to confess to Qin Ming after being tortured, can he be cleared of suspicion.

But obviously, Qin Ming got this multiple-choice question wrong.

"Haha~~~ Qin Ming, that idiot, always wants to get away with it..."

Qin Hao grabbed Yan Xiaoyi's neck and lifted him up: "Are these your last words?"

"Woo~~~" Yan Xiaoyi sobbed with all her last strength.

"Your Highness, Xiao Yi has lived up to his trust and will repay your kindness in the next life..."

Qin Hao used his fingers to crush Yan Xiaoyi's throat bone, and the only ninth-level archer in the world died quietly.

After leaving Yan Xiaoyi's body behind, Qin Hao suddenly stopped, pulled out his long sword, chopped off his head, and wrapped it with the clothes on the body.

Casually hanging the round head on the horse's back, Qin Hao got on the horse and rode away, leaving only a mutilated body lying quietly on the spot. He was soon stared at by a group of wild wolves and dragged in.

In the darkness where you can't even see your fingers.

........

A few days later, in the capital city thousands of miles away, there was a different scene at the moment. Although the national war was imminent, the prosperity of the capital city was not affected. The brothels by the Liujing River were brightly lit every night.

That night, Si Lili received a wooden box. Looking at the mark on the wooden box, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart.

But when she opened the wooden box, she was shocked. What was inside the wooden box was a round human head.

What shocked Si Lili even more was that this head actually belonged to Yan Xiaoyi.

"The only ninth-grade Archery God in the world died like this?"

Si Lili didn't know how to calm down her emotions for a moment, so she could only open the letter in the wooden box with trembling hands.

That night, the eldest princess Li Yunrui was suddenly awakened by the sound of hurried footsteps. She couldn't help frowning and looking outside the screen: "Who?"

"Your Highness Princess, something serious has happened."

Li Yunrui showed displeasure and shouted: "What's the decency of being so flustered? What on earth is going on?"
