Chapter 90: Nong Yu's Assassination
Wei Zhuang finished the wine in his glass, stood up, walked to the window and jumped down.

Han Fei and Zhang Liang looked at each other and smiled. They were already used to Wei Zhuang's habits.

Han Fei and Zhang Liang said goodbye, leaving only Zi Nu and Cheng Jiao in the room.

Nanyue walked in holding the Yaoqin.

"Sister, sir, do you need me to play the piano?"

Zi Nu declined, "No thanks, Nanyue."

Nong Yu felt a little guilty and said, "Okay, sister."

She was too embarrassed to admit that she just wanted to come and see how Sister Zi Nu and Young Master were in love.

"Shall we go over and take a look too?"

Cheng Jiao took the initiative to invite.

Zi Nu thought for a moment and shook her head: "Zi Lan Xuan is unattended, and Nong Yu and the others are not very skilled in martial arts, so I am not too reassured."

Nanyue, who was about to close the door, was startled and slowly closed the door.

After returning to her boudoir, Nanyue looked at Hongyu who was cleaning the house and made up her mind.

Cheng Jiao and Zi Nu were affectionate for a while, and then he thought about it and felt that he should go.

What if Wei Zhuang is stubborn and tries to fight three people alone, and accidentally falls to his knees? If Zi Nu finds out later, she will definitely regret it.

After all, he is my brother-in-law, so I still have to take care of him.

Cheng Jiao told himself about his worries.

Zi Nu frowned: "The Hundred Poison King and the Corpse-Driving Demon?"

Cheng Jiao nodded: "They are not strong, but with the blessing of those strange skills, they are no weaker than ordinary masters."

Zi Nu picked up the red silk and said, "Let's go over there too and tell Wei Zhuang the news. If we run into them, Wei Zhuang may not be able to take them down."

The sky was getting dark and night was approaching.

When Zi Nu and Cheng Jiao quietly went out from the side door, a sword with a cold glow stabbed towards Cheng Jiao, sometimes fast and sometimes slow.

Zi Nu was shocked. Who was lying in ambush here?

This side door is very hidden, and even the sisters in Zi Lan Xuan rarely know about it.

Is there someone who rebelled?

Zi Nu's mind raced, and the Red Snake Sword in her hand had already blocked the long sword that was stabbing towards Cheng Jiao.

Cheng Jiao did not sense any murderous aura from the sword. Looking at the masked killer, he felt that he looked vaguely familiar from his features.

Yan Lingji noticed the movement here, and she dodged and stood not far from Cheng Jiao. The Fire Spirit Hairpin in her hand shot out, forcing the man in black to dodge.

"Ji Yan Ling, please show mercy."

Cheng Jiao had already recognized who the man in black was. With his slender and delicate figure, the sword that carried no murderous aura, the face as small as a palm, and the watery eyes, it would be strange if he didn't recognize him.

Zi Nu shouted, "Nong Yu, what are you doing?"

Cheng Jiao could see that Zi Nu, who lived with Nong Yu day and night, would naturally react.

Nanyue's lips were slightly open under the black mask.

"Sister, I have grown up and I am not weak anymore."

Her voice was light and pleasant, soft and mellow with a hint of rustling. She had wanted to say this for a long time but had been holding it in her heart.

After hearing Cheng Jiao's words, Yan Lingji didn't use much force when she attacked, and her attacks on Nong Yu were mainly blocking.

"My sister is quite capable."

Yan Lingji exclaimed in admiration, saying that Nong Yu had the strength close to that of a second-rate master at such a young age, which was indeed worthy of praise.

Nanyue had a resolute look on her face and held the hilt of the sword firmly.

Zi Nu was a little helpless, after all, Nanyue was still a girl with her own opinions.

"I'm sorry, sir, I frightened you."

She was apologetic.

Cheng Jiao smiled and said, "No problem."

He said to Yan Lingji: "Yan Lingji, let me play with Nong Yu."

Cheng Jiao drew out his sword, and Yan Lingji retreated three or two steps behind Cheng Jiao. She and Zi Nu stood one in front of the other, looking at each other.

"Is this sister from Baiyue?"

Zi Nu spoke, she was a little confused as to when Cheng Jiao had such a beauty by his side.

"Sister, your observation is so accurate. I am from Baiyue and have become the master's subordinate." Yan Lingji smiled and crossed her arms across her chest, with flames flashing on her fingertips.

Zi Nu was slightly startled. Master? Many questions flashed through her mind, but she couldn't speak them out.

Cheng Jiao and Nong Yu were fighting with each other, and the two sides were going back and forth, which was very lively.

If Wei Zhuang were here, he would definitely comment that it was just a bunch of noobs fighting each other.

"Alright, alright, Sister Nongyu, please stop."

Cheng Jiao discovered that Nong Yu was not weak, but just lacked combat experience.

Nanyue stopped and took off her mask, revealing her delicate and fair face with beads of sweat on her forehead.

"I'm sorry, sir."

Nongyu half-knelt on the ground in front of Cheng Jiao, feeling somewhat apologetic. After all, she had gone too far just now.

Cheng Jiao took Nong Yu's hand and helped her up: "It's okay. That sword looked sharp, but it didn't have killing intent, and it didn't use all its strength. This is not the momentum a swordsman should have."

He teased Nanyue and smoothed her messy long ponytail.

Zi Nu and Yan Ling Ji came over.

"Nongyu, you will stay in Zilanxuan. If you encounter an enemy attack, light this firework bomb."

Zi Nu did not blame Nanyue. Nanyue's willfulness was caused by her suppressing her temperament for many years.

Nanyue breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Zinu would get furious, so she carefully took the firework that Zinu handed to her.

"Don't worry, sister. Nongyu will definitely protect Zi Lan Xuan."

She said it seriously, even with some awareness of dying, which made Zi Nu laugh and worried.

"Don't be so brave. If you are in danger, run away first. Don't fight to the death."

Nanyue did not argue. She was very smart and knew that it was useless to say more.

"Okay sister, I got it."

Nanyue bowed slightly and returned to the house through the side door and changed into her nightgown.

Cheng Jiao laughed and said, "Everything was fine, but it was made to feel like a life-and-death separation."

Zi Nu was helpless: "Okay, let's go over there quickly."

Yan Lingji followed behind Cheng Jiao and Zi Nu, feeling a little jealous but unable to say anything. After all, she was now taken in by Cheng Jiao, so how could she have the right to say anything?

When approaching the Baiyue refugee camp, Zi Nu suddenly spoke.

"Be careful, it's poisonous."

Yan Lingji continued, "It's the Hundred Poison King."

Zi Nu took out three detoxification pills.

"Eat it."

Cheng Jiao and Yan Lingji took it and swallowed it.

"It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. It seems that Brother Wei Zhuang has fought with them."

The Baiyue refugees were trembling in the camp and hiding in fear.

Wei Zhuang held his breath, clenched his shark teeth, and killed the zombies summoned by the corpse-driving demon.

Cheng Jiao couldn't help shaking his head as he watched. He was not as decisive as Jing Wei, who could finish the job with just one sweep of the sword.

Tianze brandished six snake-head chains and kept surrounding and killing Wei Zhuang. If Wei Zhuang had not been poisoned by the Blood-Robed Marquis, with the strength of the three of them, they would have captured Wei Zhuang long ago.

Cheng Jiao stood calmly behind Wei Zhuang.

Tianze's expression changed several times.

"Why are you here?"

Yan Lingji took a step forward from behind Cheng Jiao.

"The master can be wherever he wants, it's not your turn to ask."

The King of Hundred Poisons and the Corpse-Driving Demon looked around carefully, fearing that the beautiful woman who was so strong and terrifying that night would kill them with a sword.

Zi Nu followed closely with the Red Snake Sword in her hand.

Wei Zhuang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and frowned as he looked at the woman next to him who was wearing a red dress, high hairpins and long boots.

He is a Baiyue person. Could it be that Cheng Jiao and Tianze are connected?
