Daqian Night Emperor

Chapter 61: Too old? Can’t lift the knife anymore?
Under the moonlight, a machete was thrown out in the yard, and the blade flew like white light under the bright moonlight.

The beautiful figure outside the courtyard gate had her throat pierced by Bai Hua, and her body quickly wilted and turned into a puddle.

"Ding~~"

The machete was nailed to the solid wall, and the blade was shaking continuously.

After a while, a deaf-mute old servant ran out of the yard. He looked at the shriveled human skin on the ground and then at the machete embedded in the wall. His already dark face became even darker.

He stretched out his hand and pulled out the machete that was embedded in the wall.

Then he squatted down, picked up the human skin on the ground, and turned it over and over in his hands.

Just as the deaf-mute old servant was examining the human skin, Luan Nu dragged his injured body out of the yard, leaning against the gate with blood oozing from the corner of his mouth.

She was shocked and asked, "Master Nie, did you let him escape?"

The deaf-mute old servant turned his head and pretended that he was really deaf, unable to hear anything and unable to understand lip language.

But his originally dark old face now turned a little red with embarrassment.

Luan Nu sighed softly, "Master Nie, you are old."

These words seemed to have hit the sore spot of the deaf-mute old servant.

He jumped to his feet, making an inarticulate "Ahhh" sound from his mouth.

Although Luan Nu didn't understand, she could see it.

The curse was very dirty.

The deaf-mute old servant drew his knife, rolled up his sleeves, and a fierce look appeared on his face.

It was such a disgrace to him that a little girl who was not even at the Heavenly Man Realm escaped from his command.

And being mocked for being old by another little girl!

Although because he was in Kyoto City, he did not dare to use his spiritual power without permission, for fear of being sensed by the armillary sphere of the Astronomical Observatory.

But it's embarrassing enough!
The deaf-mute old servant carried a broadsword and walked towards the outside of the mansion with murderous intent.

……

Outside the princess's mansion, Gong Xinying jumped out.

She was naked, and her already petite figure looked even younger.

It's not just the height, but also the appearance, figure, and even the development of the chest have regressed at least ten years.

The cold and beautiful woman who was originally in her twenties turned into a girl of fifteen or sixteen.

Not only that, her cultivation level, which was originally at the fifth level of Zhoutian Realm, also fell to the sixth level of Huasha Realm.

When Gong Xinying rushed out of the princess's mansion, the three salvation believers who had been lurking around and waiting immediately came up to her: "Lady Saint..."

But when they saw Gong Xinying's appearance clearly, they were all stunned and speechless.

Gong Xinying shouted sternly: "Run! Run quickly!"

The three Savior believers had never seen the Saint in such a panic, as if there was some ferocious beast hiding in the princess's mansion.

They were suddenly terrified and didn't know what was going on, but subconsciously chose to obey and hurriedly followed Gong Xinying to escape.

The four of them fled towards the outer city, running for several miles in one breath before they escaped from the inner city to the outer city.

Fortunately, we didn't encounter any officers or soldiers from the Astronomical Observatory's night patrol along the way.

But unfortunately, there is no known celebration taking place in the outer city today.

On both sides of the street, every shop was open and brightly lit.

The streets were bustling with people, colorful lights were hung along the way, and there were stalls on both sides of the road. From time to time, vendors would shout hard to attract business.

This lively scene made Gong Xinying stunned for a moment.

Why is it so lively at this time?

The night wind blew, bringing a cool breeze.

Gong Xinying looked down at herself, stopped, and reached out to a female believer behind her: "Take off your coat and give it to me!"

The female believer did not dare to disobey, and quickly took off her outer garment and handed it over, even though she was only wearing a bra underneath.

Gong Xinying put on her coat. At this moment, she had a petite figure and the coat wrapped around her body tightly like a blanket.

Fortunately, all her close confidants were women, so she didn't lose too many people.

But even so, she suffered heavy losses this time!
Ten years of life, ten years of cultivation...all eaten by the "death worms".

But if it weren't for this holy object of the religion, she would have died!
How could there be such a terrifying and powerful person in charge of the princess's mansion?

"Lady Saint, are we still going to escape?"

The three members of the Salvation Church still didn't know what had happened and looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

At this moment, the four of them were hiding in the city gate corridor separating the inner and outer cities.

Gong Xinying looked back at the long street in the inner city.

The long street was quiet, and no one was chasing after her. But she was still overwhelmed by a strong sense of uneasiness.

Gong Xinying made a prompt decision and said, "Go to the West City Pier!"

The purpose of going to the West City Pier was not to join forces with the Great Elder to deal with the person encountered in the Princess's Mansion.

Although she didn't know what kind of powerful person was hidden in Zhao Qi'an's yard.

But she knew one thing clearly, that... was definitely not something the Great Elder could handle.

Even if we count the blood slaves of the celestial warrior level, it is still far from enough!
But once the city gates are closed, the only way to leave Kyoto City is through the West Pier!
If we can get a boat, we can return to Jingzhou in two days.

The believers in Baiyun Temple and their money...can’t be taken care of!
She wanted to return to Jingzhou immediately and ask the leader to come to Kyoto in person.

If Yuzhen is still alive, then only the leader can rescue Yuzhen from the man in the princess's mansion.

If Yuzhen died, the leader would definitely avenge Yuzhen!
……

"Spread out, don't gather together and attract attention."

"Yes, Saint."

Gong Xinying separated from her confidants and walked alone in the bustling night market.

She seldom came to Kyoto at night, and had no idea that the night market in the outer city was so lively.

The lights are on, the crowds are bustling...

It was a scene that had never been seen in Jingzhou.

Listening to the noisy sounds around her, Gong Xinying seemed to calm down a lot.

There are so many people here, the one in the princess's mansion may not dare to take action in front of so many people.

……

"Lady Saint didn't even tell us what she saw, she just told us to run!"

On the other side of the night market, the Salvationist who took off his coat and gave it to Gong Xinying was secretly complaining in his heart.

She took off her outer coat and gave it to Gong Xinying, leaving herself with only a bra top.

Even though she was a member of the Red Lotus sect, she couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed walking on the busy night market street surrounded by people coming and going.

But not far from her, there was a small stall selling ready-made clothes.

She was immediately interested and walked towards the clothing stall to pick out ready-made clothes.

Just then, a vendor carrying sesame cakes passed by her, shouting: "Seed cakes, freshly baked sesame cakes."

But just as the peddler passed by the last member of the Salvation Church, he suddenly pulled out a dagger from the shoulder pole and without any warning, slashed the throat of the Salvation Church member from behind.

Blood gushed out instantly, splattering all the clothes on the clothes stall.

The Salvationist was stunned for a long time, looking down at his throat which was still bleeding, and his severed trachea made a "shaha" sound.

She didn't even have time to look back to see who had plotted against her. She staggered out, holding her throat.

But before he could run two steps, several hands reached out from behind.

Some hands covered her mouth.

Some hands grabbed her arms.

Some hands held down her legs.

She was drowned in the crowd...

When the cold corpse was hidden under the tablecloth of the clothing stall, the proprietress calmly replaced the bloodstained clothes with clean ones.

"Shaobing, freshly baked shaobing."

The hawkers selling sesame cakes are still shouting, and the people around are just as normal, all bustling and immersed in the atmosphere of the night market.

There is no night market here tonight.

Tonight's night market is prepared for them.

……

Gong Xinying was completely unaware of all this.

When she walked out of the crowded night market and went to a secluded place, she saw someone she didn't expect.

It was an old servant, standing at the other end of the long street, standing quietly like a sculpture.

Until he noticed Gong Xinying, he looked at her and couldn't help but grin, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.

But Gong Xinying's attention was not on him, but on his hands.

In his hand...he was holding a machete!
