The Demon Concubine of God

Chapter 181 Encountering an Assassin



Chapter 181 Encountering an Assassin

Madam Xing's appearance frightened the entire street into a frenzy. People spread the news from one person to another, causing quite a stir.

It was at this opportunity that the Third Master Ji, who was concerned about Shen Wen, immediately noticed something strange and ran wildly into the alley.

I saw Madam Xing biting Tian Liuer's back, and then I saw Shen Wen who had fainted.

Ji Zichu pulled out a knife and stabbed Xing Niangzi in the back, sending a chill through her heart. Then he pulled her away and rescued Tian Liuer.

Only then did he let go of his hand and picked up Shen Wen.

He checked Shen Wen's breath, then pinched her philtrum while calling him.

After calling a few times, Shen Wen woke up and he breathed a sigh of relief.

The first thing Shen Wen said when he woke up was, "How is Tian Liu'er?"

Ji Zichu turned around and looked at Tian Liu'er. He said, "She didn't suffer any serious injuries. She just had a few bite marks and was bleeding."

Shen Wen immediately stood up and said anxiously: "Those are not tooth marks. No... He was bitten in multiple places. Once the poison takes effect, there will be no cure."

With the help of Ji Zichu, Shen Wen shakily stood up and saw Tian Liuer's miserable condition.

She pointed at Tian Liu'er and said to Ji Zichu, "Hurry up and carry her on your back. Go get the best antidote for the snake venom from the doctor within two quarters of an hour. Otherwise, it will be difficult to save her... Hurry!"

Ji Zichu was worried about him, so he said, "What about you? You were also poisoned by the snake. Look at the wound on your shoulder, it's bleeding black blood."

Shen Wen said, "I only have one bite wound on my body. Besides, I am an adult and she is just a child. Don't worry about me for now. Carry her on your back and take her to the hospital first."

After careful consideration, Ji Zichu had no choice but to do as she said.

At this moment, Ji Zichu was so angry about his silly little servant that he thought things would be easier if he had someone here.

Ji Zichu remembered that next to the pastry shop was a medicine shop, so he quickly carried Tian Liuer on his back and ran to the medicine shop.

Ji Zichu had just left when the stupid servant boy and Zhinuan whom he had cursed in his heart also arrived.

Shen Wen was supported by Zhinuan as he passed by Mrs. Xing who was stabbed to the core. He kicked her and turned her over to lie on her back.

She was so curious that she wanted to check on the body of Lady Xing, but Zhinuan stopped her and said, "No, check on your injuries first! Do you know how dangerous you are now?"

When Zhi Nuan said this, she suddenly exclaimed, "Last night you asked me to ask Dr. Sun for an antidote. He gave me a few newly developed pills. He also boasted that his new medicine can cure any poison. I'll give you a few to try."

As she spoke, she reached into her waist and took out a thumb-sized porcelain bottle. She poured out a few pills and was about to feed them into Shen Wen's mouth.

Shen Wen took it and sniffed it, then nodded and said, "It contains snake gall, which should be able to detoxify."

He put it in his mouth and swallowed it hard.

Seeing that his expression was getting worse, Zhi Nuan said, "I'll take you home now, otherwise what if you faint?"

Shen Wen was worried about Tian Liuer's injuries, so he had to go to the clinic first to see if Tian Liuer was out of danger.

Zhinuan had no choice but to support him and go to the clinic to check the situation.

But just as he walked out of the alley, another man in the crowd stopped and asked Shen Wen, "Excuse me, are you Shen Wen, the seventeenth son of the Shen family?"

The man was holding a long sword in his hand, which looked to weigh at least thirty or forty kilograms. He was dressed like a knight, and his face was full of arrogance.

Shen Wen looked at him. Although the man was smiling at him, his intuition told him that this man must have bad intentions.

Shen Wen whispered in Zhi Nuan's ear: "We can't beat him. Use what Jin Sheng taught you to deal with him. We can't fight to the end. Let's split up and attack him from the east while making a feint to the west."

Zhinuan thought what he said made sense and took note of it.

Sure enough, the next moment, the man sped up, took two steps, drew his sword, and attacked Shen Wen.

Zhi Nuan pushed Shen Wen away, took out the hidden weapon from her sleeve, and shot it at the man, who dodged. Then another burst of sleeve arrows came flying at him, whizzing and whizzing, making him fall several times, unable to cope with it.

In just a blink of an eye, Shen Wen and Zhi Nuan had already run away in separate directions, leaving the man with two figures running in opposite directions.

The man was not in a panic. He smiled and naturally chased in the direction of Shen Wen.

On the other side, Zhi Nuan ran a long way, looked back and saw that the man was not chasing her, she breathed a sigh of relief, tilted her head, and then realized her master's intention. She couldn't help stamping her feet in anger and shouted "Oh no!"

Ji Zichu's servant saw it clearly and immediately chased after the swordsman.

Shen Wen had a premonition every time he was in a life-or-death situation, and he knew that this time it would be just as difficult to escape as before.

But she also has an escape route that she brought with her when she traveled through time, right?

So the place where she ran must be towards a place with trees.

There are quite a few old trees on this street. You'll see one every hundred steps.

She stopped in front of an old tree, and when she turned around, she saw that the swordsman was already a few steps away from her...

The man's knife flashed in the air...

Shen Wen dodged awkwardly without warning, and the next chopped blow quickly fell on her.

Fortunately, An Le attacked the swordsman from behind, distracting the swordsman, who then fought with An Le behind him for several rounds with his sword raised.

Shen Wen wanted to take the opportunity to escape by crawling towards the tree trunk, but he was worried about Angle's safety. He also didn't want anyone in this world to know the secret of his escape.

Forget it, I can only fight for my life.

Although Shen Wen's strength was small, his moves were tricky. When the swordsman and Ang Le faced each other head-on, he attacked them from behind. Besides, she also had a hidden weapon on her body and poison smeared under her nails.

After the three of them fought for dozens of rounds, the swordsman was cut by Shen Wen's nails, and within two or three breaths, he felt his breathing disordered. The swordsman thought he had captured the enemy easily, but his expression gradually changed. The swordsman pointed at Shen Wen and said, "You! You actually poisoned me. When did you poison me?"

Shen Wen was already exhausted and out of breath, and the people in front of him were double.

Shen Wen did not answer the swordsman's stupid question, but only muttered to himself: "Didn't they say that poisonous insects have a sense of touch? If you don't come, I will die here... This damn Chu Yanqiu, and that damn Doctor Sun, they even developed a defective antidote for snake venom... If half of the snake venom was not left in my body... I wouldn't have to work so hard."

As he said this he couldn't help coughing twice.

The swordsman became more and more irritable, and looked at Shen Wen with hatred in his eyes.

An Le wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, stood in front of Shen Wen again and said, "Young Master, please go and meet up with my Third Young Master. I'll hold the line here."

The swordsman was enraged by Angle's words and cursed, "You're looking for death!" He no longer cared about the poison in his body, and started fighting with Angle again with his sword in hand.

This time the swordsman used all his strength, a horizontal sweep and a vertical chop, causing Ang Le to spit blood again, and this time his internal injuries were more serious.

An Le's hands were shaken out of control, and when the man chopped him down again, he could only watch helplessly as he was chopped to death.

Fortunately, Zhinuan arrived in time and blocked the knife for Anle.

Zhi Nuan first said to Shen Wen in a bad mood: "Young Master, you are still deceiving me at this time. If you die, even if I have ten lives, it will not be enough to compensate you."

She didn't know that Shen Wen heard it like a devil's voice in his ears, and he didn't hear her words clearly. His eyes were blurry, but his mind was clear. Before he fainted, he still hoped that Chu Yanqiu would come to rescue him.

Shen Wen fell to the ground, and An Le spat out a mouthful of blood. He knelt on one leg and still managed to say to Zhi Nuan, "Quick and decisive battle! Young Master Shen's snake venom has attacked again. We can't waste any time."

Zhinuan was very grateful to this young man, so without further ado, she took up her stance with her bare hands and attacked the swordsman head-on.

The swordsman fought Zhinuan to a draw despite being poisoned. Even so, they fought for dozens of rounds.

The swordsman was also a shady person. How could he be willing to put his life in the hands of a woman? He pulled out his hand and set off a firework signal. In less than half a cup of tea, two more people came to help him fight.

Zhi Nuan was not afraid when she saw the two helpers. She just asked them disdainfully, "The one from the underworld, please tell me clearly. If you are a gangster, I advise you not to bully the weak with your numbers. Otherwise, I am afraid you will lose your whole family."

The two looked at her in surprise and said, "She is about to die, but she still threatens us. What a brave woman."

Zhi Nuan sneered, "Do you know who this aunt is? My master only does business of exterminating clans and families. There is no family in the martial arts world that is not afraid of hearing his name."

The two also said, "Jianghu? Little girl, do you know what Jianghu is like? You are so arrogant. No matter how you threaten us today, we will lose our lives. I might as well tell you that Grandpa and I are not only Jianghu people, but our family is also related to the Duke Shen's Mansion of the Great Jue Kingdom. Your young master actually bullied my sister. Today, I will let him go to Huangquan Road first to scout the way for my sister!"

Zhinuan was surprised this time and said, "Huang Yulian's brothers."

The two of them didn't say anything more. They answered "yes" and attacked Zhinuan together.

Half an hour later, almost all the guards of Duke Ji's Mansion were dispatched and occupied a street in the capital city where breakfast shops were sold.

All the vendors and pedestrians had already fled, leaving only a few corpses lying in a pool of blood.

Chu Yanqiu hurried to the crime scene and saw his own soldiers carrying a young man running towards him.

Chu Yanqiu personally took the young man over and immediately checked his breath.

The palace soldier said: "Second Master, this young master is not dead, he just fainted due to injuries."

Chu Yanqiu breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where are the others? What's going on?"

The palace soldier said: "It was probably a fight between two groups of people from the martial arts world, but the situation is a bit complicated. A disciple from the Golden Sword Sect was killed, and two nephews from the Snow Mountain Hu family were killed..."

Chu Yanqiu asked, "The Hu family of Xueshan? Huang Yulian's half brother?"

The palace soldier nodded and said, "It's easy to recognize. Only the swords of the Hu family's closest relatives are inlaid with black lotus jade."

The guard said, "Sir! This is not serious. There are a few beggars inside, carrying the letters and cigarettes of the three houses. I don't know which unlucky guy has offended them."
