Reborn to marry a playboy, the scumbag kneels down and calls me aunt
Chapter 71 Take action
"It's good for you to know."
The girl held up a lantern and advised, "So Pavilion Master Liang should not get involved in this matter, lest he suffer an unprovoked disaster."
"hehe."
Liang Heng's eyes flashed coldly under the mask, and he said slowly: "But what if this Pavilion Master must have an answer today?"
The girl holding the lantern suddenly clenched her hands viciously without saying a word, but the killer behind her did quietly draw his knife.
"Master Liang, the Blood Robe Building does not want to be your enemy, but if I tell you his identity, the Blood Robe Building will probably no longer have a foothold in the martial arts world. If you leave here today, we will not interfere with each other, and the Blood Robe Building will not appear under Master Liang's nose in the future. But if you insist on getting a result, you may not be able to leave here today."
"I see. You would rather kill me than expose the identity of the person behind this."
Liang Heng rubbed his chin and said, "So, he must be at least a third-rank official in the capital. Those of you who deal in human lives are probably most afraid of officials with law enforcement power. Let me guess... Is it Lord Xie from the Capital Patrol Battalion? Duan Chengtian, the Minister of the Supreme Court? Liu Gongquan from the Censorate? Xu Younian from the Ministry of Justice?"
When she heard Xu Younian's name, the girl's pupils shrank slightly. Although she tried her best to hide it, Liang Heng still caught it.
"Oh, it's Xu Younian, right?"
There was a hint of murderous intent in Shen Xuanheng's eyes, and his aura was grim.
The girl shook her teeth and said sternly, "Kill him!"
As soon as he said this, more than 20 assassins in the Blood Robe Building rushed forward like headhunters. At the same time, Bai Shu drew his long sword.
The candlelight on the wall seemed to have encountered a gust of wind, and the flames swayed rapidly.
"what!"
The weapons penetrated the flesh and cut the bones. There were screams and blood in the Bloody Building.
Liang Heng took a pot of wine from the counter, opened the seal and took a deep breath of the aroma of the wine, but then he remembered that Su Xuqing didn't allow him to drink, so he could only push it aside regretfully and pour two cups of hot tea.
Bai Zhu raised his sword and killed people everywhere. Not only was he not hurt at all, but no one could get close to Shen Xuanheng. Even the blood from the killings did not splash over him.
The lantern girl was so frightened that she murmured, "Grandmaster! His follower is actually a Grandmaster who has reached the highest level!"
The killers also saw Bai Zhu's martial arts level at this moment, and immediately lost the desire to fight. After a feint, they ran away.
Are you kidding? The Grandmaster is the ceiling of martial arts world. Looking at the entire Daliang, there are no more than ten Grandmasters. Even if there are thirty or fifty more of them, they will all be killed.
The girl dropped the lantern and staggered towards a stone chamber.
A cunning rabbit has three burrows, so she still has a way out!
But things were too good to be true. A gust of wind blew past her, and the next moment a black knife was across her escape route. The girl stopped abruptly and managed to stop herself, but the hair fluttering on her chest broke off the moment it touched the black knife.
The girl cleared her throat and sweat ran down her forehead. There was actually such a magical weapon in the world. If she had taken another step forward, she would have been broken into two.
Bai Zhu swung his knife horizontally and hit the girl. The girl spat out a mouthful of blood mist in the air, slid in an arc in the air in a mess, and fell at Shen Xuanheng's feet.
Bai Zhu sheathed his sword and sat down on the bench to the right of Shen Xuanheng.
At this time, the tea that Shen Xuanheng brewed for him was still warm.
Liang Heng took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Tell me, I'll spare your life if you tell me."
The girl bit her lip and said angrily, "I am just a maid in the Bloody Clothes Building. How would I know about this? If you want to ask, you should ask our building owner."
Liang Heng looked at the girl jokingly and said calmly: "Master Xue, it would be meaningless to play such tricks at this time."
"you……"
Xue Tao was shocked and angry. She was shocked that Liang Heng actually knew her identity, and she was angry that someone in the Blood Robe Building had already betrayed her.
But after a brief moment of anger, Xue Tao regained his composure.
Things had come to this point, and it was useless to feel upset. With the Grand Master by her side, she had no intention of running away.
"I never thought that it was the Bloody Clothes Building that usually pointed the knife at others, but in the end, I, the owner of the building, became a piece of fish on the chopping board."
Xue Tao stood up, holding her chest and wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth. It seemed as if a red plum blossom had bloomed on her white sleeves.
"If I tell you, can I really survive?"
"a man of his words."
The tea was almost cold, Liang Heng tilted his head back and drank it with great enthusiasm.
Xue Tao took a deep breath, and was willing to gamble his life on this possibility. "Pavilion Master Liang's guess just now was not wrong at all. The Minister of Justice Xu Younian forced the Blood Clothes Tower to kill someone. If I didn't comply, he would issue a nationwide arrest warrant. I was also forced..."
"Did he tell me the reason?"
Liang Heng raised his hand to interrupt Xue Tao, not wanting to listen to her nonsense.
"No..." Seeing Liang Heng's unfriendly look, Xue Tao quickly said, "I'm telling the truth. How could he tell me his purpose?"
Liang Heng narrowed his eyes and thought for a moment, then nodded.
"Okay, get lost."
Xue Tao was stunned for a moment, her eyes were a little hesitant, she didn't expect Liang Heng to let her go so easily...
"Why don't you leave? Do you want me to treat you to a meal?"
"Let's go, let's go now!"
Xue Tao's dress fluttered as she fled.
Turning into the escape corridor, Xue Tao looked back as she walked, and when she saw that the great master had not caught up with her, a sneer suddenly appeared on the corner of her mouth. She didn't expect that Pavilion Master Liang was so chivalrous and kind-hearted that he actually let her go like that?
You have to know that there are hundreds of assassins in the Blood Robe Building, and only a dozen people died today except those who escaped. As long as she leaves here and reorganizes, she can regroup. Then she must find a way to kill Liang Heng and avenge today's shame!
In front of the wooden table, Bai Zhu was playing with the teacup.
"Master, why did you let her go?"
Liang Heng slowly stood up and picked up the lantern that Xue Tao had dropped from the ground. He walked away and said, "As the head of Tianxing Pavilion, I am just a businessman. If I stand up for the Zhennan Palace, I am afraid it will arouse suspicion. So I can't arrest Xue Mei and send her to the Zhennan Palace... But I will let her go, and then spread the news that the Blood Clothes Tower assassinated my wife. After that, I can openly investigate the matter as the prince of Zhennan."
Bai Zhu suddenly realized, and then looked at Liang Heng strangely. Liang Heng was really a cunning man.
After opening the stone door, Liang Heng slowly walked up the stairs.
Although the mastermind behind Su Xuqing's assassination was found, there was one thing he couldn't figure out. This Minister of Justice had nothing to do with the Prince of Zhennan's Palace, so why would he want to assassinate her?
Could it be that there is a bigger fish behind this fishing?
Liang Heng sneered. Interesting, really interesting. The water in the capital is beginning to become murky.
