Chapter 108 The Truth
Who else could the person who walked out of the shadows be if not Wang Ran?
Ever since Wang Qian was killed by Han Xu with a sword, Wang Ran also disappeared.
Han Xu had Wang Feng and Bai Yiyi investigate, but they did not find any trace of him, as if he had evaporated from the face of the earth.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly appeared in this heavily guarded royal hunting ground.
Han Xu understood instantly that this must be the arrangement of the prince.
All matters of the spring hunt were planned and arranged by the Ministry of Rites, and the Minister of Rites Ning Shanzhi supported the prince, so it was not a matter of a word for the prince to insert someone in.
Wang Ran alone was not a threat, but Yingying had targeted Han Luoling before, and now Wang Ran was ambushing here. It was obvious that the prince wanted to use this spring hunt to attack Han Xu and his sister.
Who knew if he had any other back-up plans.
Thinking of this, Han Xu had already had a ray of murderous intent towards the prince. Since you are unscrupulous, then I will pull out the chess pieces you have buried one by one.
Watching Wang Ran approaching step by step, Han Xu found that he had changed drastically from two months ago.
His eyes were full of bloodshot, revealing a cold murderous intent.
Moreover, his realm had actually advanced directly from the third rank to the seventh rank. Such a promotion speed was simply unheard of.
However, Han Xu also found that Wang Ran's violent aura was not stable and fluctuated greatly. From this point of view, his realm was not stable and should have been forcibly improved by drugs.
The most important thing is that Wang Ran seemed to have strong blood and qi, but in fact, his vitality was almost gone.
"The prince asked you to kill me?" Han Xu asked directly.
"Han Xu, my father's death, my Wang family was confiscated and exterminated, all because of you. Today I will kill you and avenge the hundreds of wronged souls of my Wang family!" Wang Ran said coldly, and then drew a snow-white long knife from his waist. The blade exuded a faint frost, leaving an ice mark on the ground where it passed.
"Don't worry, after I kill you, it will be your sister's turn."
Han Xu was unmoved and said, "Ghost? Wang Qian failed to assassinate my sister and was killed instead. Your Wang family suffered this fate because of your own faults. How can you say that you are wronged?"
"You know everything?" Wang Ran was a little surprised. From Han Xu's reaction, he seemed to be a little different from the dandy waste in his impression.
He even knew about Wang Qian's assassination of Han Luoling.
"Assassinating a concubine is a matter of exterminating the family. Do you think you can hide it from the world?" Han Xu said, "Even if Wang Qian was not killed that day, after the incident, what awaited your Wang family was still extermination of the family."
"You think the queen will protect the Wang family, naive, from the beginning to the end, your Wang family is just a discarded child, including you now."
"Since you survived, you should live in shame, and maybe you can continue the bloodline of the Wang family, but now, you should have less than ten days left to live. Is it worth it?"
"It seems that you know a lot." Wang Ran suddenly sneered, "It makes me look at you with a new eye."
"No matter what you say, everyone in our Wang family died because of you and your sister, so if you want to die today, your sister will also die." Wang Ran raised his long knife and pointed it directly at Han Xu.
"It's not enough for you." Han Xu glanced at Yingying behind him and said, "Step back."
Yingying nodded and stepped back as he said.
She also wanted to see what kind of proof Han Xu would give her.
Wang Ran slashed down with his long sword, and the Snow Blade Mad Sword swung out a frost blade aura, attacking Han Xu directly.
Wang Ran had a sneer on his lips. Although he was suffering from the tyrannical power of the Seven Killings and Seven Deaths Pill and was full of pain, he was happy in his heart.
This sword was the power of the seventh rank, and a waste like Han Xu could not withstand it.
Even if Han Xu had already entered the first rank in Taoism, this sword was enough to destroy all his vitality and freeze him into a human-shaped ice sculpture.
Kill Han Xu, and then wait for the prince to kill Han Luoling, and take the heads of the two to commemorate the dead people of the Wang family to comfort their souls in heaven.
At that time, even if he died, Wang Ran felt that he had the face to go to the underworld to see his father.
But at this moment, Wang Ran saw Han Xu raise his left hand.
A touch of ice-blue spiritual power lit up in his palm, and then gradually wrapped the entire palm.
An extremely simple action, but it made Wang Ran extremely horrified.
He had practiced this action since he was a child, and practiced it hundreds of times every day. It had long been deeply engraved in his soul.
It was the starting move of his family's sword technique, Snow Blade Mad Knife.
Han Xu used his palm as a knife, bursting out a terrifying momentum, and slashed it with his palm. A more brilliant knife light came in an instant, easily tearing Wang Ran's attack apart.
The knife light penetrated his body, but Wang Ran did not feel any pain.
He only felt an extremely cold air flow through his body, as if he was standing on the top of a snowy mountain, with a biting cold wind passing through his body.
Then, Wang Ran's feet began to freeze, and the ice climbed up and spread at a very fast speed, soon covering his calves.
"This is impossible..."
"Snow Blade Mad Knife..."
"That night, it was you who killed the assassin outside Fengling Post Station!"
Wang Ran spoke incoherently, and the huge horror had overshadowed the perception and fear of death.
"Yes, it was me." Han Xu did not hide it anymore and admitted it directly.
"Han Xu, you have deceived everyone."
"I...can't accept this..."
"Han Xu, no matter how deep you hide, you can't defeat the prince."
Wang Ran wanted to say something, but it was too late. His throat had frozen, and only his eyes could move.
All kinds of past events began to emerge in his mind.
He once suspected that Han Xu had hidden his strength, but he didn't expect that he could hide it so deeply.
The power of that knife just now, even if his father Wang Qian was alive, he couldn't do it.
"Qing'er's vision is right."
"Dad, you are wrong, we shouldn't be enemies with the Han family."
Wang Ran's last thought flashed through his mind, and then he lost consciousness forever.
Before he died, he finally knew the truth, but the truth had no meaning to him.
As Han Xu said, if he didn't think about revenge, he could still live in shame, but he was still used by the prince.
Yingying looked at Wang Ran, who was frozen into an ice sculpture, and didn't know what to say for a while.
She also always thought that Han Xu was a playboy and a waste.
But everything that happened just now broke all her previous cognition.
The strength shown by that knife was definitely up to the ninth grade.
In fact, Han Xu still hid his strength. God knows how many eyes are watching here. If he reveals his extraordinary aura, he will probably be discovered by the strong in the dark in an instant. Therefore, Han Xu is very cautious to control his strength below the extraordinary.
However, even so, it is enough to shock people.
Even though Yingying has seen many geniuses, she has never heard of anyone who can reach the ninth rank at the age of eighteen.
"Is that enough?" Han Xu clapped his hands and asked Yingying.
He deliberately showed his strength to make Yingying believe that he has the ability to help her revenge.
Yingying stabilized her mind and said, "Let me think about it again."
Although she was shocked by Han Xu's strength and talent, she also knew that if she wanted to take revenge, it was not enough to have strength alone.
"Okay, let's go somewhere else."
After speaking, Han Xu got on the horse and went to the mountains.
