How else could he have acutely detected my arrows if not for his profound mastery?
He underestimated me!
He initially thought I was a weak woman easily dealt with, but unexpectedly, she had some skills!
"You want to kill me?" Yun Shu's lips curled into a smile.
Because of the recent encounter with Zhan Tian Ye, she had almost forgotten about Yun Yue Yin and Zhen Xu. After failing to bribe her, the two of them intended to eliminate her.
This method of operation was indeed typical of Yun Yue Yin.
Zhen Xu snorted, his attitude extremely arrogant and haughty, looking at Yun Shu as if she were an ant. "If you don't want to suffer a fate worse than death, you'd better surrender obediently. I can consider giving you a dignified death!"
A mere woman, injuring him had already provoked his anger, and the woman before him was so plain that he wished to kill her to vent his frustration.
"Was it your wife who instructed you?" Yun Shu asked slowly.
Seeing that the woman showed no fear or plea for mercy, Zhen Xu frowned. "Do you think that with Zhen Lin and Ning De protecting you, your life is guaranteed? This is a hunting ground, and it's normal for one or two people to die accidentally. Besides, you are just a commoner!"
Quite audacious!
With no one around, she could still be so calm, which made him see her in a new light!
Yun Shu couldn't help but laugh. "What's wrong with being a commoner? Should commoners just obediently let you kill them?"
"Do you really think I wouldn't dare to lay a hand on you?" Zhen Lin rode his horse closer to Yun Shu.
As the distance between them shortened, Zhen Lin suddenly took a dagger from his embrace.
The dagger gleamed with a cold light, clearly indicating its sharpness.
An ordinary woman would have been terrified, her face drained of color, and would have cried for help upon seeing the glint of the blade.
But Zhen Xu overlooked this.
Upon seeing the dagger, Yun Shu praised in a light tone, "It is indeed a good dagger."
Hearing this, Zhen Xu suddenly felt something was strange. She wasn't afraid; instead, she complimented his dagger! It was as if she didn't believe him at all when he said he would kill her.
A surge of anger from being underestimated immediately welled up.
"You vile wretch! Do you think my words are mere child's play?" Zhen Xu cursed.
Immediately after, his hand moved with incredible speed towards Yun Shu, stabbing at her.
The smile on Yun Shu's lips deepened slightly.
Just as the dagger was about to pierce her, she leaned back.
She dodged it with ease.
While Zhen Xu was startled and hadn't even reacted, he was sent flying by a kick!
His body slammed heavily against a tree!
An unspeakable pain spread through his limbs and bones!
"Ah!"
He gritted his teeth and cried out in pain.
With a head that ached as much as his body, he couldn't think clearly for a moment.
He knew martial arts, and among the young masters of aristocratic families in the capital, his martial arts were not weak. How could he have been at a disadvantage today?
Yun Shu rode her horse to Zhen Xu's front, looking down at him without a word, a murderous intent in her eyes.
She was holding a hidden weapon in her hand.
Just as she was about to strike and finish Zhen Xu, a voice called out "Miss Ning" from behind her.
The hidden weapon in Yun Shu's hand stopped.
When she turned to look at Princess Ning De, the hidden weapon was already gone. She smiled and said, "It was me."
Princess Ning De rode closer. She hadn't noticed Zhen Xu at first, but upon approaching, she saw him.
When she saw Zhen Xu's current state, she was stunned.
"Why are you here?" Princess Ning De questioned Zhen Xu coldly.
Zhen Xu gritted his teeth, cold sweat beading on his forehead, grimacing in pain. He was furious!
A mere woman dared to kick him!
Fueled by his rage, Zhen Xu glared at Yun Shu and yelled, "You bitch, how dare you kick me!"
Seeing the situation, Princess Ning De guessed what had happened. "Zhen Xu, what did you do?"
"He didn't do anything. His wife just tried to bribe me, and when I refused, he tried to kill me quietly just now," Yun Shu said coolly.
Princess Ning De instantly understood the cause and effect.
What a cunning couple!
They wanted to kill Ning Ruan so that her brother would have no one to save him, was that it?
A sinister murderous intent flashed in Princess Ning De's eyes. "Zhen Xu, you have quite the nerve."
Upon hearing this, Zhen Xu's anger instantly vanished, as if a basin of cold water had been poured on him, making him sober up immediately.
He had been discovered!
He had been discovered by this damn girl, Ning De!
And this bitch, she had blurted everything out!
He sneered through gritted teeth and retorted, "Nonsense! The Grand Prince is my brother, he is my elder brother, and I wish for him to be cured more than anyone. It's that bitch by your side who wants to seduce me!"
"He saw that I am handsome and imposing and wanted to be my concubine. How could I possibly agree! Everyone knows how beautiful my wife is. Does an ugly woman think she can seduce me? Is she worthy! I advise you to quickly find another divine doctor. This bitch is a fraud. You must not be deceived!"
The more he spoke, the more self-righteous he sounded, as if he believed his own words.
Zhen Xu got up, enduring the pain.
He muttered to himself strangely, "How could a mere weak woman have such powerful kicking strength? I think I've suffered internal injuries! Damn it! What a bitch!"
After listening to Zhen Xu's words, Yun Shu found Zhen Xu's self-righteous attempt to twist the facts even more laughable.
Princess Ning De's face turned ashen. If she had been a moment later...
The consequences would have been unimaginable!
She could tell with her toes what had just happened!
If she had been a moment later, Ning Ruan might have been killed by Zhen Xu! Zhen Xu knew martial arts, and Ning Ruan was a frail woman, how could she resist!
Princess Ning De dismounted.
She raised her hand and slapped Zhen Xu's face a dozen times fiercely, before he could even react.
After a flurry of slaps,
Princess Ning De took out her horsewhip and began to lash Zhen Xu mercilessly. "Zhen Xu, who gave you the audacity to attempt to harm Miss Ning? You want my brother's life, so now I will take yours!"
Zhen Xu had never seen Princess Ning De go mad like this. He hadn't expected her to disregard all propriety and start hitting him!
He was hit before he could even react, and then he was being whipped!
"Ning De, are you crazy?! I am your second brother! How dare you hit me!" Zhen Xu shouted.
Princess Ning De's gaze was icy, and her blows were fierce, as if she were venting her rage. "My second brother? Are you worthy?"
"Even if I'm not worthy, I am still your second brother. Stop it! Stop it! Aren't you afraid someone will see you beating me?" Zhen Xu's heart sank as he met Princess Ning De's gaze.
It seemed he had always underestimated this princess sister!
Her blows were damn vicious!
Yun Shu, still on her horse, watched the scene unfold, her eyes flickering slightly.
What had happened to Princess Ning De just now?
If something hadn't happened to enrage her so much, Princess Ning De would never have lost her composure like this.
