"The person who sent us here is...is..." Chun Jiuniang opened her mouth, but did not say anything. Suddenly she seemed to realize something, holding her head in her hands and shaking her head desperately, with a look of horror on her face.
color.
"What's wrong with you?" Zu An's heart sank.
At this moment, Chun Jiuniang's whole head suddenly exploded like a watermelon.
Zu An: "..."
Even though he had been in this world for a long time and was used to seeing fights and killings, he still felt a little physically uncomfortable when he saw this scene.
He resisted and checked Chun Jiuniang's body. It was not poison or a poisonous insect. Could it be some kind of spiritual imprint?
These top killers have been imprinted with this kind of soul mark without knowing it, and will trigger self-destruction if they reveal any secrets.
The caster is really vicious and cruel. The one who can do this is the Shadow Tower again?
With a flick of his hand, a wisp of flame enveloped Chun Jiuniang's body, and soon burned her until nothing was left.
Only then did the other assassin wake up, lest he realize anything after seeing Chun Jiuniang's miserable condition and dare not reveal other information.
Then he used the same tactics he used to deal with Chun Jiuniang just now. As expected, the other party's psychology quickly collapsed and he was willing to do it.
But when he was about to speak, Zu An stopped him: "I ask, you answer."
The assassin was stunned, but nodded.
"I'm not asking about your organization's information, I'm just asking about this employer, do you know who the other party is?" Zu An stared at him carefully. He was thinking about the triggering conditions of the soul mark, and tried his best to avoid it to see if it would work.
"I know, he is..." The assassin breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he didn't betray the organization, he wouldn't be under so much psychological pressure.
Who knew that halfway through the sentence, his head would explode like a watermelon again.
Zu An: "???"
Isn't it possible to say this?
Burn his body again and wake up the next one.
"Don't take the initiative to speak this time, you can only answer my questions."
"good."
"Is the employer male or female?"
"yes……"
boom!
Zu An: "..."
Continue to the next one with a numb expression.
"You don't have to speak next, just nod or shake your head."
"The employer is a man?"
Shake his head.
boom!
Zu An: "???"
What kind of situation is this? You can't even answer this most basic information?
Continue to wake up another one.
"The female employer must be a woman. Is she from..."
Shake his head.
boom!
Zu An: "..."
Why did he shake his head before I finished speaking? The key is that he exploded.
From now on, without asking anything, these assassins are almost dead.
He recalled the question he had just asked, and suddenly his heart moved.
Then wake up the last one.
"Is the employer a... eunuch?"
The assassin was stunned and nodded subconsciously.
Then boom!
Zu An casually burned his body, even the blood foam on the ground was burnt clean.
Only then did he return to the house. By this time, Xie Daoyun had almost cooled down.
Zu An was about to help her, but as soon as he touched her cold skin, Xie Daoyun's shy voice came: "Brother Zu, I'm awake. I'll get up by myself."
"good."
Zu An walked outside, waved his hand, and drew the screen between the two of them to block their sight. He began to think about the information he had just obtained. Could it be...
Xie Daoyun glanced at the vague back figure outside the screen with a somewhat resentful expression. How could Brother Zu stay in someone else's room while they were changing their clothes?
But thinking that he had just seen everything about him, everything that should be seen and shouldn't be seen, and he even took advantage of it, there was no point in thinking about it anymore.
She had no choice but to take a towel and quickly wipe her body, and then put on her clothes hastily.
Ah sneeze!
Hearing her sneezing, Zu An said, "Sister Ling'er, is she feeling cold just now?"
"It's a bit cold." Xie Daoyun was a little embarrassed. She just pretended to be dizzy and could only keep soaking in the pool. In fact, the cold was already unbearable.
"You are hot and cold today. You may be a little weak and sick in the past two days. Please take care of yourself." Zu An thought for a while and took out a few nourishing elixirs. With his current status, he would have some specific pills every month.
The elixir is the standard for official positions and titles. Although it is not precious, it is more effective and versatile.
"Well, thank you, Brother Zu." Xie Daoyun came to him, with his head lowered and his face still flushed. He was so embarrassed just now, and when he thought about it, he wanted to faint again.
She hurriedly changed the topic: "By the way, you seemed to be interrogating those assassins outside just now, but what did you gain?"
"Didn't you faint just now?" Zu An half-smiled.
Xie Daoyun: "..."
Just let me die, ah ah!
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "Later I woke up and vaguely heard something."
Zu An didn't expose her, so he roughly explained the information about the interrogation just now.
"It's actually a eunuch?" Xie Daoyun was very surprised, because it meant too many things.
Seeing Zu An's heavy expression, she tentatively asked, "What does Brother Zu think?"
Seeing that the water on her body had not been wiped off, causing her clothes to become a little transparent on top, Zu An felt his energy and blood surge again.
Without answering, he ran directly to the ice pool inside and soaked in it, letting out a sigh of comfort.
"Brother Zu, what's wrong with you?" Xie Daoyun was startled, and at the same time his heart was pounding. I was the one who soaked in that pool just now, and Brother Zu actually soaked with me...
All kinds of random thoughts in her mind made her face red, and she even wondered if the effects of the medicine in her body had returned again.
"I was also hit by that kind of medicine." Zu An sighed. It was his high level of cultivation and amazing willpower that made his resistance stronger.
"Ah!" Xie Daoyun covered his face. He didn't know what to say for a moment. He only felt that his face was hot.
But some pictures began to appear in my mind. Just now, Brother Zu actually detoxified himself directly, so that both of them would be fine...
But she quickly gathered her thoughts. How could I think so? Brother Zu is a real gentleman.
She took a deep breath and continued the topic: "Could it be someone from the Crown Princess's faction? After all, she is the only one who knows your intentions when you come back."
Zu An shook his head: "It can't be her."
"Why is Brother Zu so sure?" Xie Daoyun was a little surprised.
Zu An couldn't talk about his close relationship with Bi Linglong, so he had to explain: "The Crown Princess has no corresponding motive. Everyone knows that I am from the East Palace family, and I can be regarded as the most capable general under her command. The current situation in the capital has her
How can you deal with me when you are at a disadvantage and when you are hiring people?"
"If it's not the Crown Princess's, then it's the Queen's. According to what Brother Zu said before, the Queen's faction and the Crown Princess's faction are naturally opposed. Now that the Emperor is dead and the Crown Prince is weak, whoever takes the initiative will be able to control the world.
Great power, and both the Queen and the Crown Princess have the opportunity to hold power in a legitimate manner, so they naturally want to fight for it."
"Since you are the most capable person on the Crown Princess's side, as long as the Queen's side gets rid of you, the Crown Princess' side will naturally be severely weakened and will have no capital to compete with her in the future."
Zu An shook his head: "She won't be the queen either."
"Why?" Xie Daoyun was really confused now. He was so sure when he said she was not the princess, and equally sure when she said she was not the queen. Where did Brother Zu get his confidence?
Zu An also had a headache. It would be hard to tell her that he was having an affair with the queen, right?
"The Queen and I also have quite a personal relationship. We have a good relationship. I believe she will not harm me."
Xie Daoyun was a little surprised. The queen had been living in seclusion these years, and her presence was so low that it was difficult for the courtiers to see her. Unexpectedly, she had a good relationship with Zu An. It seemed that the queen had been secretly planning it for a long time.
She had never doubted the relationship between the two. After all, as a queen, it was too unbelievable, and no normal person would think that way.
Even if Zu An said that to the emperor in the secret realm, it was probably just to save people and deliberately provoke the emperor.
"Brother Zu, although I don't understand political affairs, I grew up in a family of officials. I know that in the political arena, any personal friendship is unreliable, and you must not act emotionally." Xie Daoyun couldn't help but remind him.
Zu An fell into deep thought. Could it be that she was really the queen?
It's really hard to imagine that the woman who greeted him with such enthusiasm every time would kill him.
But after thinking about it, the reason why the two of them are together is ultimately a combination of interests. The other party needs her super-level essence and blood to help her heal her injuries. Now that she has recovered, she naturally doesn't need him anymore.
Speaking of which, she also lied to me at first. She said it would take many more times to recover, but now she has recovered from the injury ahead of schedule and is still a great master.
I didn't expect it. I didn't expect it.
If the Queen would choose this way, wouldn't the Crown Princess not?
The royal people are completely different from other people, the royal family is the most ruthless.
Your child is right, the person who knows the time and route of my return this time best is the Crown Princess.
However, he did not dwell on this issue for too long. Regardless of their various conspiracies, I will kill them with one sword.
"There are still two hours before dawn, you should take a good rest first." Zu An said to Xie Daoyun.
Xie Daoyun bit his lip, hesitated and said, "Brother Zu, can you sleep with me?"
Whoever can control the power in the world, and both the Queen and the Crown Princess have the opportunity to take control of the power, so they naturally want to fight for it."
"Since you are the most capable person on the Crown Princess's side, as long as the Queen's side gets rid of you, the Crown Princess' side will naturally be severely weakened and will have no capital to compete with her in the future."
Zu An shook his head: "She won't be the queen either."
