Zhang Dequan had been with the Emperor for many years and had his own system for measuring the Emperor's anger levels. The fact that the Emperor was willing to wait until they returned before dealing with the former Crown Princess showed that while he was on the verge of exploding, he hadn’t completely lost control yet.


Perhaps... it was because the Emperor didn’t know he had gone bald yet?


Zhang Dequan silently withdrew his gaze, deciding to wait for the Emperor to discover it on his own. He wasn’t going to be the one to expose that last layer of the Emperor's dignity.


Zhang Dequan looked at the coachman.


The coachman shuddered. No way, if you don’t say it, I won’t either!


The Emperor asked coldly, “Did you recognize the assassin's martial arts style?”


The coachman respectfully replied, “In response to Your Majesty, the assassin’s first two sword strikes seemed to be from the Tang Sect’s sword technique. But later, during the fight, he switched to a much more common sword technique, one that practically every swordsman in the martial world knows.”


This clarified everything for the Emperor.


At first, the assassin didn’t know who was inside the carriage, so he used his deadliest sword technique. But later, after likely recognizing the Emperor, he switched to a more ordinary style to conceal his identity.


Unfortunately, those two moves were enough to give him away.


The coachman continued, “Your Majesty, as far as this servant knows, in Shengdu, only the Han Family has hired a Tang Sect disciple as a guest retainer.”


A dangerous glint flashed within the Emperor's eyes.


The coachman added, “Also, when this servant fought with him, this servant noticed a wound on his left forearm, as if a piece of flesh had been torn off. This servant doesn’t know who did it.”


The Emperor coldly stared into the deep night, “Han Family!”


……


Han Residence.


Han Ye used his qinggong to return to his courtyard.


The moment he entered his room, he collapsed in pain onto the floor!


“Ye'er!”


Qi Xuan forced the door open!


Han Ye had been acting mysteriously for the past two days, not even telling Qi Xuan, his master, what he was up to. After the family meeting tonight, Han Ye disappeared for quite some time. Qi Xuan, feeling uneasy, came to check if he had returned.


Unexpectedly, he stumbled upon this scene.


He helped the collapsed Han Ye onto a chair.


Han Ye's left forearm was stiff, his face pale, sweat pouring down like rain as he endured immense pain.


He hadn’t been injured in his fight with the two martial experts, but the place where the gyrfalcon had bitten him was becoming increasingly painful.


As a martial artist, injuries were common, so at first, he didn’t take it seriously and only hastily bandaged the wound.


But when he forcibly ripped off the blood-stained bandage, he realized the injury wasn’t as simple as he had thought.


“What happened to your arm?” Qi Xuan asked, holding his left forearm.


Han Ye, pale-faced, replied, “I was bitten by a gyrfalcon.”


Qi Xuan frowned, “What kind of gyrfalcon could bite this deep?”


It had gone so deep that the bone was visible!


Realizing something, Qi Xuan asked again, “Wait, how could you be bitten by a gyrfalcon out of nowhere?”


He was the greatest martial artist of his generation in Shengdu!


“I was careless.” Han Ye said, sweating profusely, “But now isn’t the time to talk about this, Master. You may need to go into hiding.”


“What’s going on?” Qi Xuan asked while pulling out medicinal wine and wound ointment from a drawer, “Hold on, I’ll treat your wound first.”


Han Ye closed his eyes and said, “Let’s deal with my injury later… Tonight, I may have exposed the Tang Sect’s sword techniques… They’ll trace it back soon… I’m worried you’ll be implicated, Master.”


Qi Xuan glanced at Han Ye, who was wearing night clothes, and said seriously, “Ye’er, even now you still don’t trust me? If you don’t tell me what happened, I’m not leaving.”


Han Ye’s mind was in turmoil. The Crown Prince’s instructions echoed clearly in his memory, but his master was also a very important person to him.


In the end, he revealed the details of his mission.


Qi Xuan sneered, “So, this is why Nangong Li entered the imperial palace back then. The Crown Prince talks a good game, claiming he doesn’t want to involve the Han Family, but didn’t he just put the Han Family’s heir at risk all the same?”


Han Ye said, “Master, you should leave quickly and hide for a while.”


Qi Xuan sighed, “It’s too late to hide now. You were caught red-handed by the Emperor while assassinating the Eldest Imperial Grandson. If the Emperor hadn’t recognized you, that would be one thing, but both he and Eunuch Zhang identified you. From this moment on, not even a fly will be able to leave Shengdu’s inner city.”


Han Ye clenched his fists in frustration.


Qi Xuan asked, “No one else knows that I taught you swordsmanship, right?”


Han Ye shook his head, “Master secretly taught me martial arts and even told me not to tell my father. I’ve never mentioned it to anyone. They all think I only learned hidden weapons from you.”


Qi Xuan said, “Even though there might still be suspicion cast upon you, I’ll do my best.”


Han Ye: “Master!”


Qi Xuan smiled slightly, “I’ll leave the Han Family today. After that, don’t contact me or try to find me.”


“It’s useless.”


Second Master Han, Han Yong, suddenly strode in.


Han Ye’s expression changed, “Second Uncle!”


Han Yong said, “I heard everything you were saying. Now, do you want to hear what I have to say?”


Qi Xuan asked, “Has something happened outside?”


Han Yong replied seriously, “Just now, my father, Ye’er’s grandfather, was summoned to the imperial palace.”


Both of their expressions changed.


They had expected the Emperor might act, but not this quickly.


Han Yong said gravely, “This is no longer something a Tang Sect guest retainer can bear. Attempting to assassinate the Eldest Imperial Grandson, even though it failed, won’t the Han Family still have to die to quell the Emperor’s anger? Even if the Han Family had nothing to do with this, the Emperor will still place the blame on us!”


As he spoke, he turned to Han Ye, “Which two moves did you use?”


A sense of foreboding surged in Han Ye’s heart, “Second Uncle…”


Han Yong grabbed Han Ye’s left hand, closely inspecting the wound. Suddenly, he drew a dagger and sliced off a piece of flesh from his own left forearm, perfectly matching Han Ye’s wound!


Han Ye's face changed drastically, "Second Uncle!"


Han Yong tore off the hem of his robe to bind the wound, suppressing the pain, "Teach me, which two moves?"


Han Ye's throat tightened, his eyes reddened, and he choked, shaking his head, "I won’t teach... I won’t teach..."


Han Yong no longer hesitated with his nephew and turned to Qi Xuan, his gaze firm and resolute, "I must trouble you, Hero Qi."


Han Ye, with reddened eyes, roared, "Master! You can’t!"


Because his father was always busy with official duties, he had been raised by his second uncle since childhood. In his heart, his second uncle was closer to him than his own father.


He didn’t want his second uncle to take the blame for him; he didn’t want to watch helplessly as his second uncle went to his death!


That was more painful than facing death himself!


Qi Xuan fixed his gaze on Han Yong without blinking, "Even if you take the blame, you may not be able to save the entire Han Family."


Han Yong nodded, "I know."


"Alright, I’ll teach you." As Qi Xuan finished speaking, he struck Han Ye's acupoint, drew his sword, and stepped into the courtyard, "Watch closely!"

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:



Description:


In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.


When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.


The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.


From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.


***


Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.


After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"


Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"


Jiang Baiyan: ...?



After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"


Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"


Jiang Baiyan: ...?



Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”


Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."


Jiang Baiyan: ...?


He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
