Chapter 114: Fighting in the Dark
Li Lan did not go home, but Zhou Yuntian and others went home first.
"Brother-in-law, you are finally back. If you don't come back, your wife will be taken away by someone else."
As soon as Li Run saw him coming back, he rushed over and said aggrievedly.
Seeing him like this, Zhou Yuntian reached out and rubbed the fine hair on his head, and said with a smile: "Why? Don't you believe in your brother-in-law's ability?"
"Of course I believe it. My brother-in-law is a genius of the Great Qin Dynasty."
"Haha...don't worry, my brother-in-law has already taken care of it."
"Really? Brother-in-law. Brother-in-law, you are so awesome, so manly. No, I'm going to tell grandma, dad and mom."
"Okay, I'll go with you."
"I'm going too." Li Hang hurriedly followed the two.
At this time, in the main hall, Mrs. Wang and a few others were sitting there sighing.
"Grandma, Dad, Mom, my brother-in-law has already taken care of everything that I asked for today."
After hearing Li Run's words, several people stood up excitedly. Seeing Zhou Yuntian walk in from behind, they all smiled awkwardly and sat down again.
"Grandma, uncle and aunt, don't worry, I have already taken care of this matter."
"Okay, as long as it's handled. I'm just worried that the eldest girl will find out and make a scene. You know her temper, she's always soft-hearted and never hard-hearted. Besides, from what the old woman said today about the banker, it must be a big family. I'm also worried that if the eldest girl doesn't agree, it will bring trouble to her."
"Grandma, don't be afraid, I'll take care of everything."
After hearing what Zhou Yuntian said, Wang Pozi smiled on her face which was originally full of sorrow. She thought to herself: This girl has a really good eye for her husband. In this respect, she is like me.
Li Chunping and Zhang also breathed a sigh of relief.
"However, grandma, uncle and aunt, there's no need to mention this matter to that girl. She's very busy and has a lot on her plate. Since the matter has been resolved, I suggest we don't bring it up again."
"Yes, Yuntian is right. Now that it has been resolved, let's not talk about it. Erlang, Wulang, you two too."
"Got it, Dad."
In this way, Li Lan concentrated on doing her own thing until one day in the future, when she met Zhuang Yiyang again. When he saw Zhou Yuntian beside her, the contempt he showed on his face made Li Lan a little puzzled.
……
Three days later, merchants and tourists from various villages came and went.
The back mountain of Lijia Village.
"Little Grape, I'm leaving here tonight."
Hearing his words, Li Xi's body trembled, a mocking smile appeared on her face, and she secretly thought: "See, Li Xi. You are such a slut. You were moved by someone's flirting, and now after that, you act as if nothing happened and leave again. You are really pathetic."
Thinking of this, he sneered and turned to leave.
Potian had never seen her like this before, so he stepped forward, grabbed her wrist tightly, pulled her forward, and hugged her.
"What are you doing? Let me go. Didn't you say you were leaving? Leave now."
Li Xi yelled like crazy and pushed with all her strength, but failed to move him at all.
Seeing her like this, Potian sighed softly and said in a distressed voice, "Little Grape, once I finish one more thing, I will go and ask His Majesty to allow me to leave the Anbu, okay? You know, I have always been attracted to you. I, Potian, want to marry you and have children, lots of babies."
As soon as he finished speaking, the person in his arms stopped struggling, looked up at him, tears in her eyes, and choked with sobs: "Who wants to marry you? Who wants to have children with you?"
"Of course it's you. I, Potian, don't want anyone else but you. Little Grape, are you willing to wait for me?"
Hearing his answer, Li Xi buried her head in his arms, closed her eyes, and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes. She wanted to scold him again, but she didn't say it in the end. She choked and said, "Okay."
……
Late at night, in the pitch-black darkness, a deafening roar suddenly crossed the night sky and resounded throughout the heavens.
Dozens of men in black surrounded a moving carriage, but the handsome man sitting on the edge of the carriage showed no fear or timidity at all.
"Hey, what are you trying to do? Are you using your numbers to bully the few?"
The masked man in black who was leading the group sneered and said sarcastically, "Potian, your mouth is still as mean as ever."
Potian's eyes darkened, then he smiled and said, "Who is Potian? You're not calling me, are you? Then you've got the wrong person. I won't change my name, my surname. I'm Qin San. You can call me Third Master."
"Haha, really? Potian, the leader of the Assassin Sect, the third-ranked member of the Huide Emperor's Anbu, known as Qin San."
"Wow, you're quite good at making up lies. Were you a storyteller in the past?"
The man in black listened to his words without getting angry. He gestured to the dozens of other men in black behind him. In an instant, dozens of people rushed forward with swords in hand.
Potian's lips curled up into a playful smile. Facing the surging crowd, he flashed and disappeared like a ghost. Everyone was shocked and hurriedly looked for him everywhere.
Just as the sound of breaking air was heard, Potian appeared behind a person. He gently twisted the person's wrist, snatched the sword, and swung it, and several people fell to the ground and died.
"I said that if so many of you bully me, it won't be good if it gets out." Potian said jokingly.
At this moment, the leading black-clad man shouted loudly and personally drew his sword to stab Potian. Potian dodged to the side, but he didn't expect that someone else would attack him secretly and cut his arm with a sword.
Potian's eyes flashed. Ignoring the pain, he thrust his legs together, leaping high into the air. After spinning in the air, he charged at the leader with the force of lightning. The two engaged in a fierce, drawn-out fight. Seeing this, the other men in black gathered around, attempting to trap Potian.
Just as the encirclement was about to close, Potian swung his sword with all his might, seizing the opportunity to break through the encirclement and rush towards the horses. However, the leading man in black seemed to understand his intention and blew a whistle.
Suddenly, a short black iron arrow came through the air. Potian dodged it quickly by turning sideways, but the arrowhead still left a bloody mark on his arm.
Just as he was about to swing his sword to fight again, he suddenly felt dizzy and his knees gave way. He knelt on one knee, sword in hand. His blood surged through his body, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"The arrows are poisonous."
"Hahaha, I finally caught you."
Potian held on tightly and said hoarsely, "Who are you?"
Hearing his question, the man in black laughed out loud and sneered, "Since today is the day you die, I will make you a ghost who knows what's going on."
As he said that, he pulled down his mask.
"Kui Xing, it's actually you. You're so lucky that the sword that pierced your heart didn't kill you."
"Hahaha, that's because you're stupid. My heart is different from others. Mine is right here."
After saying this, he proudly pointed to the right side of his heart.
"I was chosen to join the Anbu together with you. I'm no better than you in every way. But why did Emperor Huide value you so much? He even wanted you to take over the entire Anbu. How could that be possible? So I secretly monitored you. I never expected that one day, I would finally see your true appearance. I never thought that our cold-hearted Lord Potian was also a sentimental man, taking off his mask for a woman.
However, I have to admit that you are indeed very perceptive. You actually spotted me and pierced my heart with your sword. Unfortunately, you were careless after all."
The leading man in black laughed more and more wildly as he spoke.
At this time, a man wearing a mask, holding a long sword and wearing a green robe appeared in front of the leading man in black.
"Qing Chang Envoy."
The man in black bent down and bowed.
"The master has ordered that this person be kept for future use."
"But his martial arts skills are so strong, we are lucky to have caught him this time. If in the future..."
"Alright, Kuixing. He's been poisoned by the demon. In three days, he'll be under our control. Within a year, the poison can only be removed with the blood of someone who loves him. Otherwise, he'll die."
After Kuixing heard what he said, a white figure suddenly flashed through his mind. Just as he was about to say something, a sword energy suddenly rushed straight to his neck. Kuixing's eyes widened in disbelief. In an instant, blood gushed out and he fell straight down.
At this moment, Potian stood there, leaning on his sword, bent over and panting. A moment later, the sword fell to the ground with a clang, and his legs finally knelt down and fell to the ground.
When his consciousness was about to fade, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and sighed in his heart: Little Grape, this time, I am going to say something wrong again.
