Xu Qingjian's fingers holding his belly trembled violently, his face was full of disbelief.

"My own life is not important, so is the child in your belly?" Xia Chen asked with a light smile.

Xu Qingjian panted heavily, subconsciously got up from the ground and wanted to escape.

But just after taking a step, Xu Qingjian felt a pain all over his body, couldn't stand still at all, and fell directly to the ground.

"Didn't I tell you a long time ago that your life is in my hands." Xia Chen stood behind Xu Qingjian and said in a cold voice.

Xu Qingjian looked back with difficulty, only to see that Xia Chen was pinching a Gu worm between his fingers, and the Gu worm was stabbed with silver needles.

This Gu worm stimulated the worms in his body, that's why he was in so much pain.

Xia Chen looked down at Xu Qingjian's lower abdomen, remained silent for a while, and said, "Let me take care of the fetus in the womb for you."

"Don't...don't..." Xu Qingjian kept shaking his head.

Xia Chen took out an extremely sharp dagger, squatted down, and slowly pressed the dagger against Xu Qingjian's lower abdomen.

"You only have one chance, kill Shen Xubai for me, or I will kill the child in your womb." Xia Chen said in a deep voice.

Xu Qingjian wanted to resist, but he was in so much pain that he couldn't even lift a finger.

His forehead was covered with cold sweat, his lips were pale from the pain, and it was very difficult to breathe.

"No...I promise you, I promise you!" Xu Qingjian replied panting.

"Very good." Xia Chen smiled with satisfaction.

Xu Qingjian clenched his teeth, his eye circles were red, and he felt that his whole body was so painful that he was exhausted.

"However, for safety's sake, you should not remember too many things." Xia Chen said again.

As he spoke, he picked up the silver needle and stabbed it forcefully at a certain position of the Gu worm.

Xu Qingjian's eyes widened instantly, and he stared blankly ahead.

This is the second attack of the poison in his body.

The originally clear memory in his head became blurred little by little, only Xia Chen kept repeating a sentence in his ear.

"Kill Shen Xubai."

He is a soldier loyal to Xia Chen and the best killer under him. Now his only mission is to kill Shen Xubai.

After Xu Qingjian woke up, his whole consciousness was blurred, and he forgot what should be forgotten and what should not be forgotten.

But what happened just now is still very clear.

He remembered that he was pregnant with Shen Xubai's child, and that he had to do things for Xia Chen.

Especially now when he saw Xia Chen, the fear that was almost engraved in his bones filled his heart again.

"Remember my request to you." Xia Chen looked at Xu Qingjian, and said in a deep voice, "Otherwise, I could kill the child in your womb at any time."

Xu Qingjian nodded with a pale face.

In those few days, he lived in a muddle, like a walking dead.

Shen Xubai also found out that something was wrong with him, and asked him several times, but he didn't say anything.

In fact, Xu Qingjian wanted to say something to Shen Xubai several times, wanted to tell him about his predicament, but every time he opened his mouth, he couldn't say anything.

After the poison took effect, he originally remembered some things, but after a few days, he almost forgot all of them, and only remembered the words that Xia Chen kept repeating in his ear, killing Shen Xubai.

He even forgot that he was pregnant.

He still remembered it when he first returned to Prince Ning's Mansion that day, and he wanted to tell Shen Xubai when he came back, but by the next morning, Xu Qingjian had completely forgotten everything.

A few days later, Xu Qingjian secretly met with Xia Yun in private.

At that time, Xia Yun's crown prince was threatened by Xia Qi, and he already felt the danger. Xia Qi was supported by Shen Xubai, so Xia Yun was thinking about how to get rid of Shen Xubai almost every day.

But Shen Xubai's influence is almost all over the court, so it is not easy to get rid of him.

Now that Shen Xubai trusts Xu Qingjian so much, he even married him and entered Prince Ning's mansion, as long as Xu Qingjian assassinates Shen Xubai secretly, then Xia Qi will never be able to threaten him.

What's more, Xu Qingjian's skills are very good, no one who Xia Yun told him to kill Xu Qingjian would miss.

So Xu Qingjian discussed all the plans with Xia Yun.

Xu Qingjian was lurking in Prince Ning's Mansion alone, and at most he could only kill Shen Xubai, but Xia Yun wanted to wipe out the entire Prince Ning's Mansion.

So Xia Yun decided to pick up Xu Qingjian in person at that time.

When the scene was chaotic, he set a fire again, and when he was found out, he said that he had come to put out the fire when he saw the palace was on fire.

Everything was done flawlessly.

But Xia Yun didn't expect that the mantis catching the cicada and the oriole were behind.

At that time, although Xu Qingjian's knife wounded Shen Xubai, it didn't kill Shen Xubai. Xia Yun was thinking of making another knife for Shen Xubai, but found that the entire Ning Palace had been surrounded by Xia Chen and his men.

In that fire, so many things happened.

After Xu Qingjian slashed and wounded Shen Xubai, he was a little delirious. He dropped his knife and ran away, while Xia Yun was arrested by Xia Chen on the charge of assassinating King Ning, and was imprisoned in the clan mansion. .

A few days later, Xia Chen used some tricks to make Xia Yun die directly in the clan mansion.

It is said that tiger poison does not eat its offspring, but Xia Chen is merciless in attacking his own son.

And Shen Xubai unexpectedly survived.

Both Xia Chen and Xia Yun planned to kill Shen Xubai at that time, but they didn't expect that Xu Qingjian's knife left too much strength.

The only chance to get rid of Shen Xubai is this time, if he doesn't succeed this time, it will be difficult in the future.

What's more, Xu Qingjian didn't know where he fled to, so they didn't have any bargaining chips to deal with Shen Xubai.

Little by little, all these memories flooded into Xu Qingjian's mind.

Xu Qingjian was in a daze, not knowing where he was.

He didn't realize Jin Xi He Xi until he saw Xia Chen sitting beside him.

He is now serving as a hostage in the enemy camp to save Nian Nian.

"Have you remembered?" Xia Chen met Xu Qingjian's gaze and asked with a smile.

Xu Qingjian clenched his teeth and stared at him fiercely.

"For the last time, help me kill Shen Xubai, and you will be free." Xia Chen said in a deep voice.

"Impossible..." Xu Qingjian stared at Xia Chen fiercely, and said through gritted teeth.

He will never do anything to betray Shen Xubai again.

"So you want to lose all your memories and know no one?" Xia Chen's eyes turned cold.

Xu Qingjian just stared at him without saying a word.

"Besides, you are in the enemy camp now, and I can kill you at any time." Xia Chen continued: "Your child is only three years old now, think about it, if he never sees him again How sad it will be if your father dies."

Xia Chen looked at Xu Qingjian's reaction while talking, and sure enough, when talking about his child, the other person's eyes changed.

So Xia Chen wanted to strike while the iron was hot, and say something to sway Xu Qingjian.

Just when he was about to speak out, Xu Qingjian suddenly rushed over with all his strength.

Xia Chen didn't expect Xu Qingjian to resist in such a situation, so he was stunned for a while, and didn't have time to react.

Soon, the jade box in his hand was snatched by Xu Qingjian and fell hard to the ground.

"Xu Qingjian!" Xia Chen's eyes widened with all his strength, and he was about to go forward and grab the Gu worm.

But his movements were not as fast as Xu Qingjian's. Before he could stop him, Xu Qingjian had already slapped the Gu worm to death.

At the same time, Xu Qingjian spat out a mouthful of blood.

When the poison is released for the third time, the Gu insect will die. Similarly, once the Gu insect dies, the poison in Xu Qingjian's body will be poisoned for the third time.

Xia Chen looked at the scene in front of him with an ugly expression, his eyes were extremely gloomy.

Xu Qingjian forced himself to get up from the ground, looked at Xia Chen, he saw that Xia Chen was about to call someone in.

So he rushed over one step faster than Xia Chen, covered his mouth with one hand, and strangled Xia Chen's neck with the other hand, strangling him to death with great strength.

Xia Chen struggled in pain and wanted to run out to call for someone, but Xu Qingjian was so strong that he couldn't break free at all, and his mouth was blocked by Xu Qingjian, so he couldn't make a sound at all.

Gradually, Xia Chen's body softened.

Xu Qingjian's forehead was covered with cold sweat, he let go of his hand slowly, panting heavily.

-

In the past few days, Shen Xubai has been ready to attack the city at any time every day, no matter it is day or night, there are people watching the movement in the city all the time.

That night, a beacon was lit in the sky above the city, which was the signal agreed upon by Shen Xubai and Xu Qingjian.

The moment he saw the beacon fire, Shen Xubai gave the order without saying a word: "Siege the city!"

Shen Xu's white-collar soldiers came to the gate of the city, and the powerful army directly broke into the city.

At the same time, Shen Xubai saw Xu Qingjian on the city wall.

He was covered in blood, with a long knife in one hand and Xia Chen's head hanging on the city wall in the other.

"Qing Jian! Come down quickly, I'll catch you!" Shen Xubai immediately rode forward.

Xu Qingjian looked at Shen Xubai, quickly dropped the long knife without hesitation, and jumped down.

Soon, he fell firmly into a warm and strong embrace.

"Are you okay, are you injured?" Shen Xubai hugged Xu Qingjian tightly and asked nervously.

Xu Qingjian shook his head: "I'm fine."

Shen Xubai checked Xu Qingjian's body worriedly, and he felt relieved when he didn't see any wounds.

"You've done a good job, Qingjian." Shen Xubai said in a deep voice.

He never expected that Xu Qingjian could directly take Xia Chen's head.

Xu Qingjian looked at Shen Xubai, and slowly smiled with his lips drawn.

That night, Shen Xubai was powerful enough to kill Xia Chen's remnants in one fell swoop.

Xia Chen was already dead, and his remaining soldiers had long been leaderless, defeated without a fight.

Xu Qingjian returned to the barracks early to rest.

He sat on the bed, closed his eyes, with a pained look on his face.

In the middle of the night, Shen Xubai came back, he stepped into the tent, his face was full of joy, he couldn't wait to share his victory with Xu Qingjian.

"Qingjian..." Shen Xubai just called out Xu Qingjian's name, only to see Xu Qingjian's face turned pale, and faintly black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

"What's wrong with you?!" Shen Xubai rushed up to hug Xu Qingjian.

Xu Qingjian's mouth kept bleeding, he hugged Shen Xubai's neck in pain, and said with difficulty: "I will never forget you...I will remember, I will remember."

After struggling to finish these words, Xu Qingjian slowly closed his eyes, and finally couldn't hold on anymore, and passed out.
