Heaven Scheme Palace

According to Ling Xuan Su's arrangements, today, Pei Sheng and his sister would disguise themselves and come out of the house. With only two guards, it would be a perfect opportunity to assassinate Pei Sheng, but Pei Sheng had been in the battlefield for a long time and his skills were high, so normal assassins would not be able to hurt him. Thus, he decided to choose eighteen Death Soldier to assassinate Pei Sheng.

They decided to set the location of the assassination in the forest located at the northern outskirts of Capital City. It was a remote location with a sparsely populated area, so it was a good opportunity to strike.

Dan Qing Han had been waiting in the northern suburbs for a long time. She had been waiting for Pei Sheng to appear when she was at a disadvantage.

But the reason why this was the worst strategy, was to sacrifice eighteen Death Soldier to complete this mission.

The so-called Death Soldier, was someone who would never return if he did not complete a mission, even if he died fighting to his last breath.

Ling Xuan Su's information was accurate, for tonight, Pei Sheng had passed through the northern suburbs, and in the forest, eighteen masked Death Soldier holding onto swords descended from the sky, thrusting towards Pei Sheng's carriage from all directions.

The carriage was blocked, and with a loud cry from the horses, the two guards drew their long sabers and swung them. At the same time, they pulled the smoke signals out from their pockets, and a red light shot out, piercing through the air.

Pei Sheng and Pei Jin jumped out of the carriage and fought with Death Soldier.

Dan Qing Han, who was hiding far away, could vaguely see the battle situation from the light of the moon. Pei Sheng's skill was strong, so it was easy for his to fight against the Death Soldier s, but the two bodyguards beside his were not bad, it was just that although Pei Jin knew a few punches and kicks, it was obviously difficult for him to face such a meticulously trained Death Soldier, he only barely got hit after a few moves. Fortunately, Pei Sheng stayed at the side to protect her, preventing her from getting injured.

Ling Xuan Su stood beside Dan Qing Han and did not say a word, his sharp eyes calculating something.

"When should I make my move?" Dan Qing Han was a little unable to hold back, although Pei Sheng's martial arts were high, in order to protect Pei Jin, naturally two fists were not enough to fight four hands.

"Wait a little longer." Ling Xuan Su, on the other hand, was exceptionally calm.

"Aren't you afraid of hurting them?" If the siblings were to be harmed, Emperor would be alarmed and begin to investigate the matter thoroughly. If the Prince Yu's Mansion was found out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"If we don't get into the tiger's den, how can we get into the tiger's den?" Ling Xuan Su chuckled, he had an expression of planning, "To make things more beautiful, how can Pei Sheng be grateful? Only by offering coal in the midst of a snowstorm will he be able to keep this in mind. "

Dan Qing Han was silent. What Ling Xuan Su said was right, this time they had to strike immediately, otherwise, how could they face these eighteen Death Soldier s who had lost their lives.

However, they had used such a cruel method to achieve their goal, and treated human life as grass, what difference was there between her and the killer of the Yao Family?

"Are you soft-hearted?" Ling Xuan Su turned his head and looked at the cold face of Dan Qing Han, "This is just the beginning, victory will be paved with countless blood and bones, we are only there to survive."

"I understand." Dan Qing Han saw that the two guards beside Pei Sheng had already started to run out of energy, and even though he had been hit by several swords, he was still using all his strength to protect Pei Sheng and Pei Sheng. They who were drenched in blood did not think of escaping.

When the Death Soldier saw that their two bodyguards were almost at their limits, they used all their strength to take care of the two of them, and immediately, the few Death Soldier s who were fighting Pei Sheng sneakily attacked from behind.

"Then you can attack." Ling Xuan Su slowly said.

Dan Qing Han immediately pulled out the flexible sword on her waist and was about to rush into the fighting, but she was stopped by Ling Xuan Su, and said solemnly: "Just now, they have already released a signal for help, and the rescue troops will be here soon, try to delay as much as possible."

Dan Qing Han nodded, felt Ling Xuan Su release her hand, and flew out, using his outstanding agility to quickly charge into the array and save the two guards who were at the brink of death.

"Who are you!?" "How dare you kill under the watch of the Son of Heaven!" Dan Qing Han's sword was so strong that it surrounded Death Soldier, "If you don't want to die, scram."

Seeing the lady who suddenly barged into the array, Pei Sheng and Pei Jin looked at each other with surprise.

The two guards who had just returned from a walk through the gates of hell were now limply lying on the ground, unable to move.

"There's another one suicidal." A cold voice came out from Death Soldier's mouth, "Then it's just nice, I'll send you to the west together."

"Who are you?" Pei Jin gasped for breath and asked with a puzzled expression.

Dan Qing Han turned to look at Pei Jin whose body was drenched in blood. She did not know how to answer this question, so she answered stiffly: "A passerby."

"Leave, we don't want to implicate the innocent." Pei Sheng said coldly, killing intent flickering in his cold eyes.

"Since you've seen it, you can't sit idly by." Dan Qing Han spoke passionately, as if he wanted to share life and death with the two of them.

Seeing her like this, although Pei Jin did not know why she suddenly appeared to help, his eyes had a look of "with your little body, can you do it" expression.

On the other hand, Dan Qing Han secretly counted, there were only twelve people left, looks like Pei Sheng still had some strength, he had already taken care of six.

The Death Soldier s lost their patience, holding their swords, they rushed forward, amongst the blade and sword lights, sounds of battle, weapons clashing, and sparks flying.

The clashing silhouette gradually became more and more intense, and the fierce fighting and sword Qi vibrated until even the leaves on the branch were blown away.

Dan Qing Han's soft sword was like a swimming dragon, drawing out a beautiful light in the night sky, her figure was graceful and her moves seemed normal, but every single one of them were sharp and deadly.

Dan Qing Han easily defeated a Death Soldier as she pressed the tip of her sword against the black clothed man's neck and whispered to him, "You can fall now." With that, she kept his sword, but the Death Soldier swung his sword towards her again after she let go of his hand.

She wasn't paying attention. She had already been cut on the arm. She took a deep breath from the pain and cursed in her heart, "Do you want to act so lifelike?"

She held onto her bleeding wound as she retreated towards Pei Sheng, but Pei Sheng was doing his best to protect Pei Jin, while the other Death Soldier s were focusing all their firepower on Pei Sheng, leaving only three or four people to pester her.

"Leave her to me." Dan Qing Han pulled Pei Jin, so that she could fight with all her might.

Pei Sheng only coldly looked at Dan Qing Han, and did not let go of Pei Jin. He still did not quite trust this woman who appeared out of nowhere.

Dan Qing Han understood that Pei Sheng did not trust him, so she did not persevere and released Pei Jin's hand.

Death Soldier fell one by one, in a mess on the ground. Pei Sheng's body was also hit by a few sword strikes, but Pei Jin remained safe and sound. She understood that although Pei Sheng's stamina was gradually decreasing, the orders that the Death Soldier was carrying to kill Pei Sheng was something that would only exhaust him to death by using his sword moves.

This won't do, if this continues, Pei Sheng's reinforcements will arrive soon, and at this time, even if she were to charge into the array and fight alongside him, he would not be able to gain Pei Sheng's trust.

She could not let tonight's plan fail!

Thinking about that, Dan Qing Han took the chance and whispered a few words into the ears of a Death Soldier. Death Soldier's eyes turned cold, she instantly turned, and rushed towards Pei Sheng who was fighting against one opponent ten times.

"Be careful!" Dan Qing Han saw that the sword was going to stab Pei Sheng's heart from his back, so she threw herself at Pei Sheng without a care.

Pei Sheng sensed the sharp Sword Qi behind his, he turned back, only to see a figure blocking his, and a sword had pierced through her chest, causing blood to spurt out all over his face.

Dan Qing Han was at a loss at the surprised, confused and confused look in Pei Sheng's eyes. Her legs went soft, and she fell down to the floor.

The pain that spread throughout her body caused her vision to gradually blur. Only the sounds of fighting could be heard, but it seemed as if they were too far away.

Gradually, she felt a deafening sound coming from the surroundings. Was it reinforcements?

Fortunately, he had arrived in time.

She laughed softly as she felt the pungent smell of blood rush into her nose.

No, she won't die, she and the Death Soldier had planned for this to happen. One inch away from the heart, it would prevent her from dying.

But what if the blood ran out?

But what if Pei Sheng left her here in the wilderness?

She had every reason to believe that the ice cold Pei Sheng had an extremely high possibility of doing such a thing.

The deputy commander of the General's Estate guards, Lei Zhi, led several hundred reinforcements in time. Seeing that Pei Sheng was safe and sound, he heaved a sigh of relief and immediately ordered for the Death Soldier s to be killed without question.

Pei Sheng glanced at the woman who was on the verge of death, although he had countless suspicions and precautions, he blocked a sword for her in the end, and after thinking about it, he said to Pei Jin: "A Jin, bring her back to the house, and ask for the best doctor."

Pei Jin was someone who had seen a lot. In the moment of life and death, he did not have the slightest bit of fear, he ordered his men to help Dan Qing Han who was lying on the ground.

When Pei Sheng saw these masked men dressed in black fall one by one, but did not have any signs of escaping, he knew that these people were all Death Soldier and would definitely fight to the last breath of life, thus he did not instruct them to stay alive.

"General, these are all Death Soldier." After Lei Zhi inspected all the masked men, he immediately went up and reported, "Who exactly dares to be so bold as to make a move against the general at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and even know your whereabouts as though he knew them well.

Pei Sheng's cold eyes swept across all the dead Death Soldier s. At that moment, a guard found a badge on one of the Death Soldier's bodies and handed it over, "General, this subordinate found this on Death Soldier's body."

Pei Sheng took it and looked at it from the front and back. However, Lei Zhi said with a face full of shock: "Isn't this the order badge from the Prince Chu's residence? Could it be the killer sent by the Prince Chu? "

Pei Sheng gripped the command medallion tightly, laughed coldly, and said: "Strictly instructing officers, do not reveal anything about what has happened tonight."
