Chapter 43: The Dog Emperor’s people?
"Snapped!"

After a while, the door bolt fell with a sound. The person did not move immediately, but held his breath carefully. After making sure that no one was alarmed, he slowly pushed open the door.

At that time, Wei Chengyi had already laid down, and his steady breathing showed that he seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep. There was more than one person coming. They were tall and all wore night clothes. Their faces were covered with black scarves, leaving only a pair of eyes exposed. They came to the bedside silently in the blink of an eye, and after looking at him for a while with bated breath, one of them put his hand on Wei Chengyi's wrist.

【how? 】

The other person asked with a frown using secret voice transmission.

[The poison has penetrated deep into the lungs. If there is no precious medicine to keep him alive, he could die at any time.]

The man who was taking Wei Chengyi's pulse shook his head and withdrew his hand.

【Um. 】

The person asking the question looked down at Wei Chengyi and hummed in an ambiguous manner. Then he suddenly drew his sword and stabbed it into Wei Chengyi's heart.

"clang!"

The sound of metal collision was heard when the two weapons collided. Wei Chengyi had opened his eyes at some point and blocked the opponent's attack with a dagger in his hand.

"You are indeed pretending."

The man's voice was hoarse, no different from a broken gong. He turned his wrist and stabbed forward with the sword again.

"clang."

Blocking his attack again, Wei Chengyi pushed out a palm wind, forcefully forced the opponent back, jumped up from the bed, opened the window and flew out.

"Chase!"

Several men in black chased out one after another. From beginning to end, Wei Chenghe slept like a dead pig and showed no signs of waking up.

"Clang clang clang!"

After leaving the post station, Wei Chengyi no longer held back and started fighting with them without restraint. He was outnumbered five by one and was not at a disadvantage at all.

"Your Majesty!"

After a while, dozens of people, led by Qingying, flew over and broke into the battle circle with sharp blades in their hands.

"No, retreat!"

Originally, they could only fight Wei Chengyi to a draw, but with the addition of Qingying and others, they were instantly at a disadvantage. The leader in black felt depressed and tried to escape.

"Just leave one alive."

"Yes!"

Wei Chengyi was no pushover. With a flip of his wrist, dense sword flowers shot out, instantly blocking all their retreat routes. Qingying cooperated and led the guards to rush forward. The pressure on the men in black doubled, and they were soon injured.

"what···"

Accompanied by a shrill scream, the arm of one of the men in black was cut off at the shoulder by Wei Chengyi.

"Damn it!"

The leading man in black swore under his breath and stopped defending blindly. He tried to tear a gap with fierce attacks and fight his way out. However, let alone Wei Chengyi, Qingying and the others were not pushovers either. Not only were they highly skilled in martial arts, they all came from the battlefield and had rich combat experience. They blocked their retreat route from beginning to end and did not give them any possibility of breaking through.

“Bang…”

"what···"

One of them wanted to escape while the other tried its best to strangle him. The collision became more and more intense. However, soon, Wei Chengyi raised his sword with one hand and shot out a dagger with the other, instantly piercing the chest of the other man in black.

"bump!"

"kill!"

The tall body fell to the ground with his eyes open. The remaining people were all stunned. Seizing this moment of negligence, Qingying and others rushed forward.

"Ahh..."

Several sharp swords pierced through the chests of several men in black almost at the same time.

“Bang…”

As Qingying and others drew out their swords one after another, blood spurted out and the men in black fell to the ground one after another. Each of them opened his eyes wide, with fear and unwillingness still lingering in their eyes.

"You, you guys... um..."

The only surviving man in black with a broken arm was horrified and was about to fight back, but Wei Chengyi sealed his acupoints with a snap of his fingers.

"We are not good at guarding, please punish us, Your Majesty."

Upon seeing this, Qingying led the guards to kneel on one knee. They discovered soon after leaving the imperial city that someone was secretly watching the prince. In order to avoid alerting the enemy and ruining the prince's plan, they did not dare to get too close, which was why they were late.

"Get up, you're doing great."

Wei Chengyi raised his hand, put away his sword, and was about to say something when his eyes suddenly passed over them and looked at the night not far away, and his handsome brows gradually frowned.

"princess!"

In the darkness of the night, a slender figure slowly approached. Qingying, who had already stood up, hurriedly bowed again with his guards.

Yes, the person who came was none other than Shen Xiangwan.

Earlier, when she used the extension of space to go back to the post station, she accidentally saw that the windows of Wei Chengyi's brother's room were open. When she went in, she found that Wei Chengyi had disappeared, and only Wei Chenghe was sleeping on the bed. Moreover, there were some slight scratches on the door latch in the room. She vaguely realized that something might have happened, so she was worried about looking for it.

"The Dog Emperor's people?"

Waving his hand to Chong Qingying and the others, Shen Xiangwan slowly walked up to Wei Chengyi, looking past him at the corpses lying all over the ground, his deep, bright face covered with a thin layer of frost.

"···should be."

Wei Chengyi really wanted to ask her where she had been and why she came to see him, but after staring at her deeply for a long while, he finally asked nothing and turned sideways to follow her line of sight to look at the corpses.

"should?"

Turning his head to look at him, Shen Xiangwan frowned slightly, obviously not satisfied with this answer. He glanced at the man in black with a broken arm who was pinned aside, and walked towards him without saying a word: "This is for forcing a confession, right?"

It seemed like a question, but she used a positive tone.

"Ah."

Wei Chengyi did not deny it and stood beside her on tiptoe.

"Extorting a confession is so bloody, why don't we be gentle?"

Raising his eyebrows, Shen Xiangwan had a sly smile on his face, and took out a needle from his sleeve pocket. Facing the other party's eyes full of fear, he inserted the needle into the blood vessel in his neck with his backhand and pushed the liquid inside.

“Mmmmm…”

Not knowing what that thing was, the man in black became even more terrified. Even though his acupoints were sealed, his tall body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"poison?"

Ignoring him, Wei Chengyi glanced indifferently at the syringe she was about to put away.

"nice one."

Putting away the needle, Shen Xiangwan raised a finger and shook it, then nodded to the man in black: "Well, it's almost done, let's untie his mute point."

What she injected him with was not poison, but a genetic drug developed by medical researchers in the 28th century based on the hypnotic ability. After generations of improvements, the effect is very good and it works almost instantly. He can answer any question.

"Ok?"

I looked at the man in black again and saw that he had stopped struggling. The fear in his eyes turned into dullness, and he looked like an idiot.

Qingying and the others were greatly shocked. Wei Chengyi frowned barely perceptibly and untied the black-clothed man's mute point with a flick of his fingers.
