C970 The reason to kill you!
"Kill!"
She wore a young and tender face, and had a resolute expression on her face.
The dagger in the little thief's hand directly stabbed towards Xuanyuan Wudi.
Straight at the vital parts.
His young body seemed to have released all of its potential. The speed of his movement was extremely fast, and the ice-cold dagger in his hand seemed like a streak of cold light. The little thief's starry eyes carried a cold glint, but there wasn't the slightest killing intent in them. There was only a simple and unadorned determination.
One slash was enough to kill the Emperor.
Unfortunately —
Even if the little thief's assassination attempt had happened too suddenly, even if the little thief's speed had reached its limit, he was still an eleven year old child, an ordinary youth. But who was Xuanyuan Wudi? As a earth emperor of the Zi Yun Empire, he was also a pseudo-Xuan Emperor Ranker, and was one that the little thief could not even compare to.
An assassination attempt was an attempt by an ant to shake a tree.
The moment the dagger in the little thief's hand was about to touch Xuanyuan Wudi, Xuanyuan Wudi suddenly grabbed the little thief's hand that was holding the blade.
It was difficult to advance in terms of killing weapons.
The little thief was stunned.
"Child, why did you kill me?"
Looking at the little thief in shock, Xuanyuan Wudi frowned and asked.
There was no anger, only curiosity.
"Buzz!"
The little thief's body slightly trembled.
He stared at his own arm that was being held by Xuanyuan Wudi with a look of disbelief, staring at the sharp dagger that was about to pierce through Xuanyuan Wudi. 'Just a little bit more, just a little more.' The little thief screamed in his heart, but it was also filled with unwillingness.
"Kill!"
Suddenly, the thief screamed in his heart.
He opened his mouth and looked at Xuanyuan Wudi.
He directly bit towards the wrist where Xuanyuan Wudi was grabbing onto.
He gritted his teeth and exerted all his strength.
He only hoped that Xuanyuan Wudi would let go, and the dagger in his hand could pierce into Xuanyuan Wudi's body.
"En!"
Xuanyuan Wudi frowned slightly.
There was no pain.
He didn't think that the little thief would bite him at this moment, but he didn't have any intention of making a move. Instead, he frowned as he looked at the eleven year old child that was biting him, and said, "Child, tell me, why do you want to kill me?"
The little thief didn't answer Xuanyuan Wudi.
'Shua! '
A moment later, the child let out a sigh of relief.
'Ding ding! '
Moments later, the dagger in the little thief's hand fell to the ground.
"I — have failed."
The weak voice carried a trace of disappointment. 'Bang!' The little thief collapsed onto the ground, paralyzed. His eyes were lifeless, but what he had was not despair, fear, or fear. What he had was only a sliver of disappointment and unwillingness. At the same time, the little thief no longer bothered to look at Xuanyuan Wudi.
"This …"
Looking at the little thief in front of him, Xuanyuan Wudi was slightly stunned.
He was filled with curiosity.
"Child, do you know the punishment for assassinating an Emperor?"
Suddenly, Xuanyuan Wudi bellowed.
The little thief was silent.
"You …"
Looking at the little thief, Xuanyuan Wudi was slightly stunned.
"Child, assassinating an Emperor is a capital offense, but do you know that it is punishable by death? We have no enmity with each other, and I don't believe that it was a child's idea. "Speak, who ordered you to assassinate me? As long as you say it out loud, I promise I won't hurt you." Looking at the little thief, Xuanyuan Wudi asked again.
There had to be a mastermind behind the assassination attempt on the emperor.
The assassin deserved to die, but the mastermind deserved to die.
Xuanyuan Wudi had to uncover the mastermind behind the scenes, otherwise, he would not be able to be at peace in the future.
"Buzz!"
Hearing this, the little thief's body slightly trembled.
'Shua! '
Suddenly, he looked at Xuanyuan Wudi.
"I wanted to kill you myself. It had nothing to do with anyone."
A resolute voice sounded.
Emperor slaying, capital punishment.
How could the little thief not know?
He knew that, but he did not plan to 'sell' Teng Yan out.
"You …"
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Wudi was stunned again.
The child wanted to kill him?
He didn't believe it.
"Why do you want to kill me?"
"Because — you insulted me."
"Insulted you?" Looking at the child, Xuanyuan Wudi was slightly taken aback, "When did we insult you?"
"Do you remember what I said before? I don't need charity. I can support myself with my own hands. But you? Asking your soldiers to take me to a feast is not an insult, but what is it? If you insult me, I'll kill you, even if you're the emperor. " Gritting her teeth, the thief's firm voice sounded.
"Buzz!"
Xuanyuan Wudi's body could not help but tremble.
Just for this?
Looking at the little thief, a trace of disbelief flashed across his eyes.
He didn't believe it either.
This reason was too far-fetched.
"You really don't want to say who ordered you?"
"I told you, I wanted to kill you myself. "Now that I've failed, it's up to you to kill or to scrape." As the little thief spoke, he didn't hesitate at all and directly closed his eyes. His young body sat limply on the ground, a trace of calmness on his face. It was as if he was already prepared to die.
"This …"
Xuanyuan Wudi was slightly surprised by the child's reaction.
Kill, not kill?
Xuanyuan Wudi was momentarily at a loss as to what to do.
The atmosphere froze as time passed.
Xuanyuan Wudi looked at the little thief and thought.
'Shua! '
Suddenly, the little thief's eyelids twitched, and opened up a small gap to peek at Xuanyuan Wudi.
He took another look at Dagger on the ground.
"You can go!"
Suddenly, Xuanyuan Wudi spoke out.
"Buzz!"
The young thief's body couldn't help but tremble, and that shocked expression also looked towards Xuanyuan Wudi.
"You won't kill me?"
"I won't kill you. Leave."
"Even if you don't kill me, I won't be grateful." While speaking, the little thief immediately stood up from the ground, and then, directly picked up the dagger, looked at Xuanyuan Wudi and said: "Even if I can't kill you today, I'll definitely come kill you when I grow up. Just you wait —"
With that, he turned and left.
"…"
The little thief's words caused the corner of Xuanyuan Wudi's mouth to twitch slightly.
You're still coming back when you grow up?
How much hatred must there be?
Just because of a meal?
Xuanyuan Wudi was momentarily at a loss as to how to describe this eleven year old child in front of him.
Looking at the back of the child, the Emperor was slightly absent-minded.
'Shua! '
Suddenly, the child's eyes flashed.
"Kill!"
He turned around and strode forward.
The dagger pointed straight at Xuanyuan Wudi.
The little thief pounced towards Xuanyuan Wudi like a hungry beast pouncing on its prey.
Come back when you grow up?
The child couldn't wait that long.
Teng Yan would not give the little thief that much time.
If they didn't succeed, they would die.
The oath was only for the sake of creating a second chance to assassinate him.
He swore once again to kill Xuanyuan Wudi when he was caught off guard.
Unfortunately —
The difference in strength was the biggest barrier that a little thief would never be able to successfully kill.
Xuanyuan Wudi instantly sensed the incoming blade slash.
'Whoosh! '
A claw struck out.
Xuanyuan Wudi grabbed the thief's wrist again.
"You …"
Looking at the little thief, the corner of Xuanyuan Wudi's mouth twitched.
"Ding!"
The dagger in the little thief's hand fell to the ground once more.
"I failed again."
"…"
Hearing this, the corner of Xuanyuan Wudi's mouth twitched once again.
"Kill me."
Without waiting for Xuanyuan Wudi to speak, the little thief spoke again.
"Do you really have to kill me?"
"We must kill."
"Just because I gave you a meal?"
"Yes."
"You are returning kindness with enmity."
"I don't need charity."
"You …"
Looking at the little thief, Xuanyuan Wudi was flustered and exasperated.
A fuss?
How can you argue with him?
The thief was just an eleven-year-old child.
"Xuanyuan Wudi, it seems like the core of the empire, the imperial city where the emperor is located, is not that great. It actually allowed an eleven year old child to enter unhindered, and furthermore, to assassinate you in the palace towards the sky. Do you think it's because you're too stupid, or because he's too cunning? "
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
"Who?"
Xuanyuan Wudi cried out in alarm.
He looked around.
The little thief was also slightly surprised.
"It's me!"
Suddenly, a person strangely appeared in front of Xuanyuan Wudi and the little thief.
"Young Master Yan —?"
Looking at Teng Yan, Xuanyuan Wudi was slightly stunned.
"Teacher —"
The little thief was also shocked to see Teng Yan. He had only said one word, yet he seemed to have realized something as he looked at Xuanyuan Wudi, who was in front of him, and immediately shut his mouth.
"You're not bad."
Looking at the little thief, Teng Yan said with a smile.
"An eleven year old child is able to enter the imperial city without being a martial artist. Furthermore, he has come to the Royal Palace to assassinate the head of a country. This courage, this wit, this courage is truly hard to come by. Most importantly, you have not revealed this young master's identity after failing the assassination attempt. " Teng Yan said with a smile, and then said with a serious expression: "Congratulations to you for passing this young master's test, from today onwards, you will be this young master's first disciple."
"Buzz!"
Hearing this, the little thief's body slightly trembled.1
Surprised and happy.
Xuanyuan Wudi was also slightly shocked when he looked at Teng Yan.
"Young Master Yan, this —"
"You didn't see wrong, and you didn't think wrong either. This young master did indeed send him to assassinate you." Looking at Xuanyuan Wudi, Teng Yan laughed and said, "If he wants to acknowledge me as his master, then I will naturally test him. He had kneeled outside the Teng Mansion for three days and three nights in the first stage. This young master's second trial is to have him enter the palace to assassinate the current emperor, which is also known as you. Of course, I don't want him to kill you. After all, he can't kill you. Rather, this young master wants to see if he dares to come and see how he will enter the Imperial City, or even assassinate you. "
"…"
Hearing this, the corner of Xuanyuan Wudi's mouth could not help but twitch.
Assassination? A test?
He had an urge to smash into a wall.
Now that Teng Yan said this, he finally understood the doubt in his heart from before. He was sure that the little thief didn't want to kill him because he was humiliated, but he couldn't understand who would be so stupid as to let an eleven-year-old kid kill him. That wouldn't be enough to kill him.
Now he understood.
"Young Master Yan, why didn't you tell me earlier? What if I accidentally kill him?"
Xuanyuan Wudi's helpless voice rang out.
"I'm telling you, the play isn't real."
Teng Yan said with a smile.
