Chapter 41: Drinking and Chatting
Yu Liancheng explained the cause and effect briefly.
She Wang revealed a pained expression, his eyes turning bloodshot.
Xue Bing was completely stunned.
Although she already knew it was She Wang who had drugged her, she had never expected the consequences to be so severe.
She should not have believed this, but looking at She Wang's expression, how could she not?
In this instant, her whole body turned cold, as if she had fallen into an abyss.
She Wang, as a friend of Lu Xiaofeng, had actually intended to drug her and then hand her over to Jin Jiuling, to the Embroidered Bandit.
As for what kind of end she would eventually meet, she was already shivering with fear, not even daring to think about it further.
"Jin Jiuling!" Xue Bing gnashed her teeth, the sound clicking, and suddenly looked at She Wang, staring coldly as she sneered: "Good, good, good, you really are a good friend of Lu Xiaofeng."
Swish!
Suddenly, a short blade slid from Xue Bing's sleeve; the blade light danced, and She Wang's right arm was severed, fresh blood gushing out.
She Wang screamed, cold sweat pouring down his forehead like rain.
It was this hand that had brought out the wine, so she wanted to sever this hand to vent a little of the anger in her heart.
Yu Liancheng said indifferently: "He has been completely handed over to you; you are also completely free to take his life."
"No, he cannot die yet; I still need him to testify against Jin Jiuling. I also want to know what reaction Lu Xiaofeng will have after seeing the true face of his friend."
When Xue Bing mentioned the three words "Lu Xiaofeng," there was no longer the slightest warmth, as if he were just a complete stranger.
Shangguan Xueer looked at Xue Bing and shivered coldly; she suddenly felt that this Sister Xue Bing, who was usually shy, was a very terrifying woman.
In fact, there is not a single "little white rabbit" among the women who can enter the Red Shoes.
"No... I have failed Lu Xiaofeng, I don't want to see him, I cannot see him..." Pain flickered in She Wang's eyes; gathering the last of his strength, he slammed his head toward the wall.
With a "bang," She Wang was instantly bloodied.
"You are not allowed to die, you cannot die!!" Xue Bing rushed over at once, but She Wang was already on his last breath, only murmuring: "I have failed you, I have failed Lu Xiaofeng." His head tilted to the side, and he was no longer breathing.
"You think dying like this settles it? I will definitely kill all your snake descendants to the last one." Xue Bing gritted her teeth, trembling with rage.
"Dead is dead, he was just a minor character," Yu Liancheng said indifferently.
"But he is dead, who will testify against Jin Jiuling?" With She Wang dead, this lead was broken. And as the number one divine catcher of the Six Fan School, no one would dare to make a move against Jin Jiuling without evidence.
Xue Bing's hatred for Jin Jiuling was beyond imagination; using the capabilities of the Red Shoes organization, she could naturally have him assassinated.
But that would be letting him off too easily; she must make him lose his reputation and suffer endless torture and punishment, only then could her anger and hatred be fully vented.
"Rest assured, as long as I am willing, even if Jin Jiuling is not the Embroidered Bandit, he will definitely be the Embroidered Bandit." Yu Liancheng looked at She Wang's corpse, a mysterious smile suddenly appearing on his face: "What's more, corpses can also be used to make a point."
A moment later, the three of them walked out of the room.
Xue Bing suddenly said: "Let's go drink and chat."
Yu Liancheng looked at her in surprise: "You still have the mood to drink and chat now?"
"When one is in a bad mood, one must drink and chat even more. Besides, you saved my life, and you are still a very handsome and witty man; why can't I find you to drink and chat?" Xue Bing's face was still cold, but her words held a hint of warmth.
Yu Liancheng knew that Xue Bing's mood was not calm right now, so he smiled: "Drinking and chatting is certainly fine, but please don't ask me to go to bed, at least not today."
Xue Bing snorted and stamped her foot: "Am I such an ugly woman that you refuse to go to bed with me?"
After saying this, she suddenly realized that a word like "go to bed" really shouldn't come out of the mouth of a girl like her, and she couldn't help but blush.
Yu Liancheng said indifferently: "Only because I know you are in a bad mood right now and need to find something to lean on. But any action you take now is impulsive. If you went to bed with me today, you might regret it the next day."
Xue Bing spat and hummed: "Even if all the men in the world were dead, I wouldn't go to bed with you."
Yu Liancheng laughed: "That is for the best."
Xue Bing said: "Alright, now shall we go drink?"
Yu Liancheng said: "Of course."
Xue'er's big eyes blinked and blinked, revealing a cunning light like a little fox.
"Hee hee, today's events were extremely interesting; I must tell the sisters."
……
…………
Nanwang Mansion.
Lu Xiaofeng's investigation was not going very smoothly, because just as he was about to leave, he saw a white-faced swordsman with a slight beard, dressed in white.
Swish!
A sword light like a bolt of silk pierced down; Lu Xiaofeng was entirely within the coverage of the Sword Qi, a kind of Sword Qi that could chill one to the bone marrow.
This sword strike was actually even more terrifying than Ximen Chuixue's sword.
And it was completely not inferior to the sword strike Yu Liancheng had given him.
Under the pursuit of this sword strike, Lu Xiaofeng had been forced into a desperate situation.
Fortunately, he still had two fingers.
His fingers reached forward.
No one could describe the finesse and speed of these two fingers; these two fingers had shockingly clamped onto the sword blade.
Lu Xiaofeng looked at that person and suddenly said: "White Cloud City Lord."
The man in white said coldly: "It is I."
Lu Xiaofeng said: "You knew I was here early on?"
Ye Gucheng nodded.
Lu Xiaofeng said: "But why did you know I would come to the Wang Mansion?"
This question did not need an answer, because he had already seen Jin Jiuling and Hua Manlou.
A short while later, everyone had arrived at the main hall.
Lu Xiaofeng said with a cold face, "You two know full well that the White Cloud City Lord is waiting for me, ready to give me a sword strike at any moment, yet you stand on the sidelines watching the fun; is this how friends act?"
Hua Manlou laughed, "Because we also want to know if Lu Xiaofeng's fingers can catch the White Cloud City Lord's Divine Sword. Furthermore, the White Cloud City Lord does not have any killing intent."
Jin Jiuling said, "You have personally investigated the Wang Mansion treasury; did you discover anything?"
Lu Xiaofeng shook his head, "The treasury is guarded too strictly; even without the White Cloud City Lord taking action, I absolutely could not have snuck into the treasury without making a sound."
As the few were discussing the case, a guard suddenly hurried in and said, "Someone outside is looking for Hero Lu."
"Someone is looking for me?" Lu Xiaofeng frowned; besides the people in the main hall, only Xue Bing and She Wang should have known about him sneaking into the Wang Mansion today.
Could it be one of She Wang's people?
What exactly could have happened for She Wang to specifically send someone to find him?
Soon, a burly man walked in; he seemed to be injured and was leaning on a crutch. His face was pale, suffused with an indescribable sense of terror.
Lu Xiaofeng happened to recognize this person.
This was She Wang's trusted aide.
"Master Lu, She Wang... She Wang, the old man, is dead..."
