Chapter 116 Jun Wuzui, Do You Like Me?
The War King's body stiffened slightly, and he looked at Su Jixue with some disbelief: "Ji Xue's blood?"
Su Jixue's body couldn't help but stiffen.
She would not regret what she said, although she did not expect to put the matter of the War King's life and death before Zong Kui's escape.
But if King Zhan asked, she really didn't know how to explain.
Su Jixue is not ready to reveal her identity yet.
So, she nodded somewhat stiffly.
Zhan Wang clenched his hands into fists, and blood immediately seeped out of the white bandages. He looked at Su Jixue with eyes full of unspeakable heartache: "Does it hurt?"
Su Jixue was stunned.
She didn't know how the War King's previous question turned into this one, but the look in his eyes made her feel like she was a precious treasure, being cherished and held in the heart.
When he asked this question, Su Jixue felt the burning pain in her back and left shoulder.
But she shook her head: "It's just a small injury, it doesn't hurt."
The War King's breath hitched, knowing that Su Jixue had misunderstood him. The War King lowered his eyes, and his gaze fell on the wound on Su Jixue's left shoulder. The sword wound had been bandaged so that the depth could not be seen, but the white cloth wrapped around her shoulder was also soaked with blood.
She was hit in the back by muskets three times in a row, so the injury must have been serious.
But she said it didn't hurt.
Although when the War King asked the question, he was not actually asking about Su Jixue's wound, but asking if Ji Xue felt pain at that time.
If Zong Kui came here to give Ji Xue's blood, it definitely wouldn't be just a little blood.
The War King didn't dare to think about how Ji Xue died, but he could get a glimpse of the situation from what Su Jixue had just said.
My heart aches so much.
For Ji Xue, and also for Su Jixue at this moment.
But he couldn't say anything.
Su Jixue looked at Zhan Wang in confusion. Although he didn't say anything after she finished speaking, his eyes said it all.
He felt sorry for her...just because of this injury which was not fatal.
Su Jixue had suffered more serious injuries before. When she and Zong Kui were young, the court of Nanqing was not as solid as it is now. Nanqing also had prominent families who had controlled the court for a long time.
In order to help Zong Kui, Su Jixue assassinated the leader of the aristocratic family on his own.
When she was rescued from a life-threatening situation, Zong Kui's eyes were filled with guilt, but more of it was the ambition to finally show his talents.
Despite the suspicions of the aristocratic families, she still pretended to be calm and attended the aristocratic family banquet.
When we returned, the waterproof oilcloth wrapped around us was covered in blood to avoid being exposed.
Zong Kui said with regret that he would destroy these aristocratic families sooner or later.
But afterwards, Zong Kui mediated between them with ease, and she helped Zong Kui deal with all those shameful affairs.
Many things cannot be compared.
It turns out that this is what it feels like to be truly loved by others.
Su Jixue's peach blossom eyes were filled with warmth, and she looked at the War King with a curved eyebrow: "It really doesn't hurt."
Compared to what I suffered before I died, this injury is nothing.
What's more, this time, someone really felt sorry for him.
When Su Jixue smiled, dimples appeared on her cheeks, making her look beautiful and sweet, completely different from Ji Xue's previous appearance.
"Stop laughing, it's ugly!" Zhan Wang looked away at her like this and took a deep breath. Other girls would get their hands red if they touched them, and the maids and servants would take turns applying ice to them. She might as well just be stupid!
The more Su Jixue said it didn't hurt, the more Zhan Wang felt his heart ached to death.
He wouldn't live long anyway, so Su Jixue should have used his back to gain leverage and dodge.
How could he feel at ease with her like this?
Su Jixue tugged at the sleeve of the War King and said pitifully, "You are innocent, it hurts."
"Where does it hurt?!" Zhan Wang quickly turned back and looked anxiously at Su Jixue's body: "Is there a wound that has been missed and not treated?"
"Here!" Su Jixue pointed to her heart: "You said I was ugly, and I was injured here."
"Su Jixue!" King Zhan couldn't help but grit his teeth.
"Don't worry." Su Jixue didn't let go of the hand that held the War King's sleeve, her eyes full of smiles as bright as night stars: "I'm fine."
"Jun Wuzui, do you like me?"
Su Jixue looked directly at Zhan Wang without any shyness and dropped this bombshell directly in front of him, in his ears, and in his heart.
The War King's body stiffened again, but his narrow eyes locked onto Su Jixue's like a predatory beast, with a strong sense of aggression, yet revealing a hint of annoyance that she had only just discovered. "What else?!"
"You are innocent. I am very happy." Su Jixue loosened her grip on the King of War's sleeve, but gently held his fingertips.
She was very happy about his heartache and his love for her.
Zhan Wang's tense body gradually relaxed as he looked at the stupid guy on the bed. Su Jixue's face was pale as paper, and her red lips had lost their color, but her eyebrows and lips curved, and you could see that her joy was beyond words.
The tips of the War King's ears turned slightly red, and his heart suddenly softened.
hiss~
Outside the War King's bedroom, a group of masked men with their ears pressed against the wall couldn't help but gasp.
"Master Huo, is there really zero in there?" Sixteen stared at Butler Huo with eyes wide open in disbelief, feeling like something in his heart had collapsed.
"Twelve, go and take a look." Manager Huo's expression was not very good at this moment, and it was as cold as ice.
"No way, Master Huo, you really doubt me. I was just saying it casually." Sixteen quickly stopped him.
"Eleven is in deeper trouble than I thought." Manager Huo looked at Twelve with a serious expression: "If it's Zero, then it's nothing, but if it's not—"
He paused.
In the Great Desolate Mountains, there was only one Zero. She had endured more than anyone present, more than any previous assassin, and even more than all the spirits in the Dark Prison. Therefore, her suspicions were so deep that no one but Eleven could dispel them.
Gu'an City Ling came under an alias. The War King knew it very well, and they also knew it very well.
But none of them knew what happened to Zero after becoming Ji Xue. During the battle at Dahuang Mountain, Ji Xue single-handedly sealed off the entire underground city and told them to leave without looking back.
The master of the Great Wilderness Mountain, the transformed orcs, and those chess pieces who only have killing in their eyes.
Eleven, who went there late, said that there were corpses everywhere in the mountains.
The War King searched for three full days in the Great Wilderness Mountains, and they returned one after another and searched together for half a month, looking through every corpse but finding nothing.
It was as if she had suddenly disappeared from this world.
The next person to appear was Ji Xue.
Already an enemy.
They were worried that Ling was brainwashed, so when they arrived in Gu'an City, they were testing her little by little to confirm her identity and make sure that she really came to kill the War King.
Eleven once said that Zero had exchanged blood for him, so no matter what Eleven looked like, as long as he appeared, she would be able to recognize him.
Because they had a blood pact.
But in Gu'an City, Ji Xue did not recognize the War King, so it is very likely that she had been brainwashed.
They wanted to rescue her, so they had to take it step by step.
Because of this, the War King almost lost his life.
And now, if this Su Jixue is not Zero, then he must be a top-notch master of deception who can even deceive Eleven.
Zero was already dead, and they couldn't let Eleven die again.
"If you are sure it is not." Chief Steward Huo said in a stern tone: "Kill without mercy!"
