LETHAL FLOWER

Outside the room, the clashing sounds continued for a while longer before the silence.

"Why you did not give me a hand earlier?" Gu Jingshen irritably asked the appearing figure that hidden behind the folding walls.

"The Young Miss did say to give you a hand. But those three were already poisoned the instant they entered the room. They were no longer difficult to handle, so why bother helping you if you can defeat them alone?"

Gu Jingshen was speechless. 'Not difficult? Then what are these wounds in me??? Wait, did he say poisoned? The three assassins were already poisoned the moment they entered the room?! Shit! Did he put poisons to the burning incense?!' Gu Jingshen was alarmed by the thought.

Xuyin walked near the kneeling man and put the man to sleep. Then he picked the man up before turning to Gu Jingshen.

"Now I'm doing my work so stop complaining and do your part. I'm leaving the rest to you."

'What the...' "Wait! If the incense was poisoned, then even us were also exposed by it?!" Gu Jingshen alarmingly asked.

"Worry not, the Young Miss will only rid a useless bee." Xuyin stated before his figure finally disappeared in the room.

Jingshen helplessly looked at the disappearing figure that was carrying a man over the shoulder.

Inside a certain room with no windows, Shuang put back the fine needless to the cloth holder. The middle age man sitting on the bed automatically threw up a black stench liquid. Then his complexion slowly gained some color as the remaining dark spots in his skin finally disappeared.

The door was pushed open and the handsome man entered the room. He has much resemblance to the sitting middle age man in the bed.

"Father." Gu Jingshen kneeled down the floor as he greeted the man.

"Shen'er." Gu Sheng beckoned the young man to come over and Gu Jingshen immediately stood up and walked over to his father.

"You did well son." Gu Sheng patted his son gently in the arm then turned to look at the sitting girl in purple dress.

"Young Miss Ren, my whole family was fully indebted by your grace. My Gu family will always be loyal to you. Please command us." Gu Sheng showed great respect as he gave his gratitude and words of loyalty. With no doubt, his family will really be ruin if not by this Young Miss Ren's godly skill and timely help.

"Lord Gu, praise yourself for being a good and a loving father. I can see it by your son's dedications and strong will. And about my plan here in Southern City, let the Young Master to give a hand." Shuang slowly stood up and fixed her dress.

"My family is truly blessed by your grace. From today on, the Gu family will obey to the words of Young Miss Ren." Gu Sheng solemnly stated and both he and Gu Jingshen cupped their fists as they slightly bowed their heads towards Ren Shuang.
