Chapter 266 Assassination and Poisoning, This Is the Right Way in the Ancient Dragon World

Chapter 266 Assassination and poisoning, this is the correct way to open the ancient dragon world

Su Shaoying shrugged. Huo Xiu is really a good friend. He is not only an old friend of Dugu Yihe, but also an old friend of Lu Xiaofeng.

Unfortunately, Huo Xiu, like Huo Tianqing, underestimated Su Shaoying.

Because Lu Xiaofeng was not there, Huo Tianqing thought he could kill Su Shaoying, consume Dugu Yihe, and then let Dugu Yihe run into Ximen Chuxue tired and angry.

Neither of them is used to talking, so they will definitely fight to the death. Dugu Yihe is already a dead end.

Huo Tianqing thought so, and Huo Xiu did not appear in the mourning hall, obviously thinking so.

However, they did not expect that Su Shaoying not only did not die, but also showed weakness on behalf of Dugu Yihe, so that Ximen Chuxue, who never took advantage of others, would stop and retreat.

Now, if Dugu Yihe and Lu Xiaofeng were to meet the next day...

When Dugu Yihe and Su Shaoying had just walked out of the Jewel Pavilion and turned into the path leading to Tianquan Temple, a sound of strings suddenly sounded in the darkness.

"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!"

More than a dozen crossbow arrows, as well as hidden weapons such as darts, flying knives, and locust stones, suddenly flew out from the woods on both sides of the road, like a rain of flowers, and shot directly at Dugu Yihe and Su Shaoying.

Su Shaoying and Dugu Yihe drew their swords together, and the two swords transformed into two sword circles. As the swords swung, all the hidden weapons could not get close to them and fell one after another.

Dugu Yihe said in a serious tone, "There are at least two hidden weapon masters inside."

Those who can be called hidden weapon masters by Dugu Yihe are not ordinary people, but Dugu Yihe is not an ordinary person. He is a top master who can be called by Lu Xiaofeng together with Shaolin Dabei Zen Master and Wudang Mu Dao Ren.

If Huo Tianqing had not guessed that Dugu Yihe would not kill him immediately, and had not used his special moves to lure him and forced him with his internal strength, he would definitely not be Dugu Yihe's opponent if they really fought head-on.

Even if Dugu Yihe only had half of his internal strength left, he could not be attacked by a few hidden weapons.

After a rain of hidden weapons, the rustling sound in the woods faded away. Dugu Yihe's eyes condensed, and then he forcibly suppressed his anger and did not chase.

"Okay." Su Shaoying nodded, sheathed the sword, "Finally, it's a bit like the ancient dragon world."

"What did you say?" Dugu Yihe turned around and asked.

"I said that the real murderer behind the scenes can mobilize a lot of power." Su Shaoying said.

Dugu Yihe nodded, "Huo Tianqing is the owner of Qingyi Building, so he can mobilize a lot of power."

Su Shaoying was also speechless, "Huo Tianqing is the owner of Qingyi Building?"

"If it wasn't Qingyi Building, where would so many good players come from?" Dugu Yihe said in a deep voice, "Besides, after I found out that the mastermind behind the fake Jinpeng King last time was Qingyi Building, I have been looking for news about Qingyi Building."

"Then what?" Su Shaoying asked.

"Then I found out that Qingyi First Building is in Shanxi!" Dugu Yihe said.

Su Shaoying, "..."

"In Shanxi?" Su Shaoying blinked and said, "Such a large range?"

Dugu Yihe shook his head and said in a deep voice, "The range is not large anymore. There are not many people who appear in Shanxi and are qualified to be the owner of Qingyi Building."

"The most suspicious one is of course..."

"Huo Tianqing!"

Hearing Dugu Yihe's words, Su Shaoying had to admit that Huo Xiu hid well and listed himself as the target of the fake Jinpeng King, directly clearing himself of suspicion.

Moreover, he was not only Dugu Yihe's friend, but also Lu Xiaofeng's friend. How could they doubt Huo Xiu?

"Let's go back first. We'll know the truth after meeting Lu Xiaofeng tomorrow." Dugu Yihe said.

Then, they returned to Tianquan Temple smoothly. There were no assassins lurking on the road, and they didn't know whether they had given up.

...

It was still very late at night. There were only a few lights in Tianquan Temple, swaying in the spring breeze. The breathing sounds of the Taoists in the temple were faintly heard, and they had obviously fallen asleep.

Dugu Yihe did not disturb the Taoists in the temple, but took Su Shaoying over the wall.

When they returned to the wing room in the temple, the room was dark, and everything remained the same as when they went out. There was a pot of cold tea on the table that they had not finished drinking when they left in the afternoon, and even the half-full tea in the cup next to the teapot was not poured out.

Dugu Yihe wiped his sweat, did not take the teacup, but reached out and picked up the teapot and drank it.

As a result, before the tea was poured out, the teapot in Su Shaoying's hand was snatched away.

"What are you doing?" Dugu Yihe asked.

"I'm afraid it's poisonous." Su Shaoying said.

"How is it possible?" Dugu Yihe stared at Su Shaoying, looked at the teacup and then at the teapot, frowned and said, "The position of the teapot has not changed."

Su Shaoying glanced at the teacup, then opened the lid of the pot and smelled it, laughed, and poured all the tea out with his backhand, splashing all over the wild cat that had just walked to the window.

"Meow——"

The wild cat screamed, thorns all over its body, and flew to the roof opposite, yelled at Su Shaoying twice, and then began to comb its wet hair with its tongue.

"Meow——"

As a result, the cat licked it two or three times, and then screamed shrilly, and then fell straight down, "bang" fell to the ground, and didn't move.

Su Shaoying nodded at the poisoned wild cat, and Dugu Yihe felt a chill rising from the soles of his feet to the back of his head.

He had just competed with Huo Tianqing in the mourning hall, was stimulated by Ximen Chuxue, and escaped safely from a bunch of assassins' hidden weapons. When he returned to his temporary residence, he was thirsty and tired.

The murderer expected that he would drink the pot of herbal tea, so he poisoned the tea.

Dugu Yihe looked at Su Shaoying with disbelief, "Did you guess it?"

Su Shaoying spread his hands, "It's no secret that you settled in Tianquan Temple. I just fought in the Jewel Pavilion for a long time, and I consumed a lot. Of course, I have to drink water when I come back. Isn't this a very obvious thing?"

Dugu Yihe was speechless. Is it obvious?

Sending Sixiu out to accompany him, killing four masters, persuading Ximen Chuxue to retreat, and seeing through the poison in the teapot, each step was not something Su Shaoying could do before. Dugu Yihe always felt that Su Shaoying in front of him was like a different person.

However, Dugu Yihe was still tired despite his relief. He looked at Su Shaoying who was still calm and asked, "What do you think he will do next?"

"The enemy is in the dark and I am in the light. How can I know?" Su Shaoying shook her head. "But if you want to drink water, I think the water from the Guanzhong well is pretty good. It's icy and cool, just right for cooling off."

Dugu Yihe looked at Su Shaoying for a long time and finally sighed, "Then drink the well water."
