Chapter 46 Revenge

Kuang Meng was a voracious eater with an astonishing appetite. Watching him wolf down

the food on the table like a whirlwind, emptying plate after plate, Wu Tianjiao's eyes bulged out. He finally realized why Kuang Meng

had been killing people for food; with his enormous capacity, most people couldn't afford to feed him.

Kuang Meng was simple-minded but physically strong. After eating and drinking his fill, he lay down in a corner of the hall and quickly

fell into a deep sleep, snoring loudly like thunder.

Wu Tianjiao shook his head, smiled wryly, and muttered to himself, "What a big oaf!"

He thought to himself, "Let him eat well, sleep well, and in time, he'll follow me."

While pondering this, Wu Tianjiao picked up the wine jar on the table to pour himself a cup, but found it

empty; not a drop could be poured out. He realized that the wine had been drunk downed in a frenzy. He immediately

retrieved a jar of Immortal Dragon Wine from his storage ring, opened the seal, and removed the lid. Instantly, a rich, aged

aroma filled the air.

Wu Tianjiao poured himself a cup of Hundred-Year Immortal Dragon Wine, and after taking a small sip, the slightly ajar door suddenly opened, and

a huge figure walked in—it was the Crimson Dragon Beast.

The Crimson Dragon Beast ran to Wu Tianjiao's side, affectionately rubbing its body against him. Then, it sniffed the Immortal Dragon Wine on the table,

letting out a low hiss. It stared at Wu Tianjiao with pleading eyes, looking utterly pitiful

.

Seeing the Crimson Dragon Beast's appearance, Wu Tianjiao was momentarily stunned. The scene before him felt strangely familiar,

like… In an instant, Wu Tianjiao recalled how the Dragon Eagle

had looked at him with the same pleading eyes when it wanted wine.

"Does it want to drink?"

This thought had barely formed in Wu Tianjiao's mind when the Crimson Dragon Beast lowered its head, brought its mouth close to the wine

cup in his hand, and with a gulp, whoosh! The entire cup of Immortal Dragon Wine was gone, not a drop left.

Seeing this, Wu Tianjiao was dumbfounded. After drinking the wine, the Crimson Dragon Beast made smacking sounds,

as if savoring the wonderful taste again and again.

The Crimson Dragon Beast, still savoring the wine, turned its attention to the jar on the table. With a

single , like a whale drawing in water, it gulped down the entire contents. After finishing,

it squinted its eyes, thoroughly enjoying itself, and let out a joyful hiss, clearly excited and eager for more. However, it discovered

the jar was empty and could only watch longingly as Wu Tianjiao returned.

Wu Tianjiao was heartbroken. This was a century-old immortal dragon wine! Although he still had quite a bit in his spiritual ring, it

couldn't withstand the Crimson Dragon Beast drinking it all at once. He immediately said, "It's all gone. You don't need to watch me. You

drank it . I don't have any left to drink, do I?"

Hearing this, the Crimson Dragon Beast thought it made sense. It sniffed Wu Tianjiao's body, looked around, and confirmed that there was indeed no wine left

in the room . Only then did it reluctantly turn around and slowly walk out of Chonghua Palace, its tail swishing

back and forth, seemingly very happy.

Watching the Crimson Dragon Beast leave Chonghua Palace, Wu Tianjiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Touching the Nine Dragon Jade Bracelet and

the Void Ring on his hand, he muttered to himself, "Luckily, I have these two treasures. The Immortal Dragon Wine is hidden

inside the aroma. Otherwise, I would have really lost out! Damn it, what kind of world is this? Even birds and beasts drink

wine. The world has truly changed."

This kid is so petty. The Crimson Dragon Beast only drank one jar of his wine; why is he

sighing his Immortal Dragon Wine is of dubious origin and cannot be brought to light.

Night had fallen, and when Wu Tianjiao went to bed, he quickly realized he had made a huge mistake. He shouldn't have let

Kuang Meng sleep in Chonghua Palace. That guy's snoring was incredibly loud, like thunder, deafening and making

it impossible for to sleep. He had to summon Hu Liniang from the Nine Dragon Jade Bracelet's space and set up a barrier in the bedroom

to block out the sound before he could finally sleep peacefully.

Wu Tianjiao was asleep, but many in the capital were kept awake by his death. On a stormy night, assassins had attempted to kill Wu Tianjiao in

the streets , resulting in the deaths of numerous soldiers and even Lu Tong, the Nine Gates Commander

. The entire court and the public were shocked.

However, the assassins also suffered heavy losses, losing more than ten assassins, including a skilled fighter like Kuang Meng.

This deeply saddened the mastermind behind the assassination, filling them with fear, resentment, and a burning hatred for Wu

Tianjiao .

The wind howled, the rain poured down. In a dark alley in the capital, a woman in black

ran . She leaned forward, her toes barely touching the ground as she moved with incredible speed, almost as if she were flying.

She stopped in front of an inconspicuous house in the alley, glanced back, entered

the doorway, knocked lightly three times on the wooden door, waited a moment, and then knocked twice more.

With a creak, the wooden door opened gently, and a young woman draped in a black cloak stepped out—

none other than Ji Bingyan, the mistress of Liuxiang Pavilion's Liuxiang Courtyard.

Standing at the doorway, Ji Bingyan saw the woman in black outside, breathed a sigh of relief, and welcomed her in.

"A-Lian, how is it?"

Ji Bingyan's voice held undisguised anxiety. The woman

in black, A-Lian, removed her cloak but remained silent.

Ji Bingyan's face paled at this, and she took a step back, asking, "What happened?"

"The military police and the Nine Gates Admiral's troops have blocked the streets. There are soldiers everywhere,

and I dare not approach. I heard that Kuang Meng seems to have been taken to the Jin Yang Prince's Mansion!"

A-Lian said hesitantly.

"The Jin Yang Prince's Mansion…" Ji Bingyan murmured, repeating it, her brow furrowed, speechless for a moment.

The room was silent. Raindrops dripped from the cloak carelessly tossed against the wall onto the floor,

making a "tap-tap" sound.

After a while, Ji Bingyan slowly walked to the window, opened it, and a gust of fresh air rushed in.

She casually removed her veil, revealing a beautiful and refined face. Gazing up at the lightning-streaked sky, she closed

her tearful eyes and groaned, "Is it all my fault? Did I kill so many brothers?"

A-Lian looked somber and comforted her mistress, "Miss, it's not your fault. It's just that little lecher's fault for being

too and too lucky to have a mount like the Crimson Dragon Beast. We underestimated him this time. Next time, we'll find an opportunity..."

"With further arrangements, we'll definitely be able to kill that little lecher!"

Ji Bingyan said dismissively, muttering, "Next time... after this incident of alerting the enemy, we won't have

such a good opportunity next time!"

"Knock knock knock!"

A knock sounded unexpectedly at the door. Ji Bingyan and A-Lian turned around simultaneously. There were three knocks at the door,

a pause, and then two more—the pre-arranged signal.

"Go open the door, A-Lian!"

Ji Bingyan ordered, her right hand gripping the hilt of her sword.

A-Lian carefully pulled open the door and immediately slipped behind it, her weapon already drawn.

Two men dressed in black entered the room. Upon seeing Ji Bingyan, one of the men bowed deeply and

respectfully said, "Miss."

He was young, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, a lithe build, and remarkably agile movements; he was clearly a skilled

assassin . He was none other than Huan Zhongyi, the leader of the assassins tasked with killing Wu Tianjiao.

The other one merely nodded casually and said lazily, "Miss."

He was short, with a sparse mustache, bright but cold black eyes, and

a head of shiny black hair. He walked like a large cat, making no sound.

He glanced at A-Lian with a mocking look but didn't speak. For some reason, A-Lian disliked this guy; she

just couldn't stand him. His name was Suo Shun, one of the top assassins in Ji Bingyan's secret assassin organization.

"Miss, I am incompetent. I failed to kill Wu Tianjiao to avenge you, and I have disappointed you!"

Huan Zhongyi said guiltily.

"This isn't your fault, I underestimated Wu Tianjiao!"

Ji Bingyan gritted her teeth and said, "Zhongyi, how many men did we lose this time?"

"We lost seventeen brothers in total!"

Huan Zhongyi said with a pained expression, "Including Kuangmeng, it's eighteen!"

"Kuangmeng isn't dead, he was taken to the Jinyang Prince's Mansion!"

Ji Bingyan said sternly, "Fortunately, he doesn't know anything, otherwise, we would be in trouble!"

"Kuangmeng isn't dead!"

Huan Zhongyi was both surprised and delighted, saying, "Miss, we must find a way to rescue Kuangmeng, he is a

rare and powerful general!"

"Trying to rescue someone from the Jinyang Prince's Mansion is wishful thinking, a pipe dream!"

Alian poured a basin of cold water on Huan Zhongyi, extinguishing his idea of rescuing him.

The room fell silent for a moment, no one spoke again.

The wind howled through the window, blowing Ji Bingyan's white clothes, which were as white as snow. She stood quietly by the window,

her slender figure seemingly blending into the dark, cloud-covered night. Her subordinates behind her remained silent, gazing at

Ji Bingyan 's back. For the first time, they felt that this tall, slender figure looked incredibly haggard and

exhausted.

Rumors circulated that she was the most outstanding assassin leader and intelligence spy in the family's history—a figure who sounded almost

mythical . But in reality, she was, after all, a frail young woman, and the burden on her shoulders

was far too heavy.

After a long silence, Ji Bingyan finally broke the oppressive atmosphere in the room: "Suo Shun, how many men did you bring this time?"

Suo Shun walked to the door without a word and pulled it open.

"Ah!"

A-Lian exclaimed softly.

In the doorway, more than fifty men stood in four neat rows. They varied in height and

clothing; some wore straw raincoats, some raincoats, and some bamboo hats—all dressed as ordinary civilians.

From their appearance, the fifty-odd men were completely unremarkable, the

kind who would go unnoticed on the street. They were of different appearances and dressed in various styles, but they shared one common characteristic: each

stood ramrod straight, expressionless, staring straight ahead with a bright, cold gaze. Their calm and composure were

chilling .

Despite the heavy rain outside and the nearby eaves offering shelter, not one of them went in,

remaining motionless as the rain poured down on them.

Suddenly, the door to the room opened, revealing their leader and superiors, yet they showed no reaction,

no commotion, no movement, as if nothing had happened.

Ji Bingyan looked at them, her eyes filled with admiration. This was the suicide squad trained by the family—

cold as ice , unyielding as a rock. She nodded and silently closed the door again.

Ji Bingyan looked at Huan Zhongyi and said sternly, "Huan Zhongyi, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you again this time."

Huan Zhongyi bowed deeply and said sternly, "This subordinate is truly honored. Please give your orders, Miss!"

Ji Bingyan turned around from the window and said, "No matter what, I must kill Wu Tianjiao! If I can't kill him, I

will at least take revenge on him and make him suffer for the rest of his life."

"Miss!"

A-Lian exclaimed in surprise.

The Jin Yang Prince's Mansion was heavily guarded, with many experts, and Wu Wudi, the Prince of Jin Yang, was the number one expert in the world. To try to

sneak into the Jin Yang Prince's Mansion to kill someone would undoubtedly be courting death. But A-Lian dared not dissuade her, knowing that once Ji Bingyan

made a decision, it would never be changed.

Huan Zhongyi was equally surprised. He glanced at Suo Shun and found the latter cold and expressionless, his dark

eyes revealing a mocking tone, as if asking, "Are you afraid?"

Suo Shun calmly said to Ji Bingyan, "Miss, the important task of assassinating Wu Tianjiao will be carried out by your subordinates.

Your identity must not be exposed. Please return and await our good news!"

Ji Bingyan said indifferently, "With just a few dozen people, going to the Jinyang Prince's Mansion is simply throwing your lives away. Hmph!

I have no intention of sending you to the Jinyang Prince's Mansion to kill Wu Tianjiao!"

"Then what does Miss mean..." Suo Shun asked in surprise.

"Arrest his relatives!"

Ji Bingyan sneered, "I know he has a maternal grandfather named Zhao Qingshan, who currently lives at the Xuyun Temple in Dongshan.

I want you to go to the Xuyun Temple and arrest his maternal grandfather!"
