The weak princess is super fierce

Chapter 950 The Shadow Descends

Meng Shisan pursed his lips and admitted, "Since Your Highness is so familiar with my travel habits, you should also know that whether I come to see Your Highness today or not, this soft whip will be wrapped around my waist."

"My demand is that you be exchanged for him." Li Heng was fighting a desperate battle today. Now that he had met his target, there was no need for him to waste any more words. "A life for a life."

“Fine, you release him, I’ll stay.” Since Meng Shisan has come, it’s naturally to exchange for Meng Renkang’s chance to live.

Seeing that Meng Shisan agreed without hesitation, Li Heng glanced at Meng Renkang, who was both excited and remorseful, and asked, "Is Miss Meng really willing to exchange her own life for the life of Fourth Young Master Meng?"

“Your Highness is a man destined for great things, why are you acting so sloppy?” Meng Shisan pointed at Meng Renkang. “Untie him and send him out. My men will be there to meet him at the alley entrance. Once he’s safe, you can do whatever you want with him.”

"What if I don't?" Li Heng spread his hands, showing a tendency to act like a rogue.

Meng Shisan drew a soft whip from his waist: "Your Highness may break your promise. Let's see who has the last laugh."

"Hahaha..." Li Heng let out a hearty laugh. He hadn't expected that even in such a predicament, Meng Shisan could still be so calm and composed as to threaten him back. "You don't naively think that you can deal with more than twenty assassins by yourself and with just a whip, do you?"

"This isn't the first time Liangchen has encountered the Second Prince's assassins." Meng Shisan flicked the soft whip in his hand, his face and eyes full of confidence. "Last time there were ten, and I could handle them. This time there are more than twenty, and I can handle them just as well."

"Meng Liangchen, you were lucky to escape death last time, but how could I let you escape again this time?" Li Heng's words grew harsher and harsher, his face gradually becoming ferocious. "As long as you die, and die a terrible death, my dear third brother will surely be in unbearable pain!"

"Your Highness overestimates me. I don't hold such a high position in His Highness's heart." Meng Shisan shook her head, denying her importance in Li Shou's heart. "If I die, the Meng family will only lose a young lady. But the Meng family originally had two young ladies, both born of the principal wife. Even if I die, there is still my sister. I understand Your Highness's intentions, but I am the most honest person. I still have to say that Your Highness's plan is likely to fail."

Meng Renkang listened in a daze. He could understand some of the witty remarks between Meng Shisan and Li Heng, but not all of them. He only had a vague understanding of some of them, which made his mind a complete mess.

But one thing he heard clearly was that his elder sister was willing to give her life for his...

Tears streamed down his face again: "Sister..."

Hearing the call, Meng Shisan looked at Meng Renkang: "Why are you crying again? Don't worry, your older sister won't let you die."

“I’m not afraid…no, I’m afraid…” Meng Renkang was somewhat incoherent. Seeing Meng Shisan frown, he straightened his tongue and said again, “Sister, I’m not afraid that you can’t save me. Although I’m afraid of death, I’ve read the sages’ teachings and know that a man should protect a woman. I may be young, but I’m a man, and I absolutely cannot let you die in my place!”

Therefore, he was afraid of death, yet not afraid of death.

If his life came at the cost of his elder sister's death, then he wouldn't want it.

"Knowing you're young, then speak less." Meng Shisan felt comforted upon hearing Meng Renkang's words, at least his efforts to find a way out for the little fat boy hadn't been in vain.

Li Heng smiled and pointed at Meng Renkang, saying, "I just said, you can't talk too much."

"Your Highness has quite a lot to say." Meng Shisan tightened his grip on the soft whip and sneered, "How dare you talk about my fourth brother? Release him or not? If you're going to release him, release him now. If you're not going to release him, then beat him. Stop with all that nonsense."

As Meng Renkang listened to Li Heng point out something to him, Meng Shisan would point back at Li Heng in return. Although his forehead and face were still sore, he was very happy.

Having an older sister to back you up makes all the difference.

Even though Ji Jiu was bound hand and foot, he felt cheerful. But the next moment, Meng Renkang's face changed, turning pale.

“I never intended to let anyone go after I brought you here today.” Li Heng pointed at Meng Shisan and then at Meng Renkang. “Aren’t you two siblings very close? Then die together. If we can’t be born on the same day, then we can die on the same day. That would be a way to fulfill your sibling bond.”

"Sister! Go quickly, don't worry about me..." Meng Renkang shouted halfway through when he saw the more than twenty assassins who had been hiding around the house suddenly appear outside.

They entered the main room one after another, gradually filling it to the brim.

He became completely mute.

Now, even if my eldest sister wants to leave, she might not be able to!

Meng Shisan has always been the type to take action rather than talk. Even though she is constrained by the weakness of the original body and cannot fight as easily as she could when she had her powerful original body, the current situation leaves her with no choice but to fight.

Moreover, just as Li Heng said, she had indeed come prepared.

If the soft whip is no match for her, she can simply unleash her natal weapon and kill everyone except her and her brother on the spot.

Then there will be no future troubles.

As for the chubby boy, she told him to shut up and keep the secret, which he should be able to do.

As Meng Shisan's thoughts raced, almost at the same moment Meng Renkang called out for her to stop, she swung her whip, and the assassins also raised their knives. Meng Renkang was terrified, and Li Heng retreated to the back to avoid the flashing blades. Just then, a dark shadow silently descended, turning everyone except Meng Shisan into ashes.

Fortunately, in the blink of an eye, Meng Shisan changed the direction of the whip she was wielding, lashing it towards Meng Renkang, hooking him off the seat and bringing him to her side.

She held him protectively in her arms.

To avoid instant death.

Things happened very quickly, one after another, so fast that no one knew what was going on before the houses were reduced to piles of rubble.

At the same time as the shadowy figure suddenly appeared, the water snake that was guarding Taichen Courtyard sensed something, soared out of the water tank, and transformed into a streak of green light, heading straight for the place where the shadowy figure appeared.

Meanwhile, Old Ma and Huang Jing, who were guarding the entrance of the alley, witnessed a dark shadow, like a dark cloud pressing down, suddenly appear above the house, then descend below it. In the blink of an eye, the house collapsed with a crash, dust rose everywhere, and the ground was leveled. They were caught off guard by the scene unfolding before their eyes.

Huang Jing stared in disbelief: "This is..."

Old Ma seemed to be thinking to himself: "The aura is similar to that of the young lady..."

At that moment, Silver Fox arrived with Li Shou, who was dressed in plain clothes and had come in disguise.

"Make way!" Li Shou rode his Akhal-Teke horse, Qianshan, past Huang Jing and Old Man Ma, heading straight for the now-defunct house.
