In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me!-Chapter 215: Rain and Shadows

Jin Yong followed this lecher step by step while cursing Yue Mingxuan bitterly in his heart.

If it weren’t for him, how could he as the head of the shadow guards have been forced to spend an entire night lurking inside a brothel while listening to their moaning through the wall?

The rain threads that was fine and dense quickly soaking through both of their clothes.

Yang Xiao was still immersed in memories of last night’s fragrant tenderness and had not noticed at all that someone was following him from behind.

The rain gradually grew heavier.

Yang Xiao cursed under his breath and quickened his pace.

Suddenly, a burst of cold wind rushed straight toward him and instinctively, he dodged backward.

A flash of silvery white blade swept past the tip of his nose and the force of the strike even left a thin blood mark across it.

Seeing that Yang Xiao had avoided the first strike, the masked man instantly shifted from a thrust to a cleaving motion and attacking again from below at Yang Xiao’s side.

Seeing how vicious and tricky the man’s techniques were, Yang Xiao’s heart went cold.

He closed his eyes and resigned to his fate.

When Jin Yong saw that Yang Xiao did not even attempt to resist, he cursed inwardly.

He immediately struck out with a surge of internal energy and knocking aside the masked man’s attack.

With a swift movement, he landed in front of Yang Xiao and said to the man in black, "Brother, I don’t know which path you walk, but right now, you can’t take this man’s life."

The masked man who saw how agile Jin Yong was and how fast he moved felt a chill in his heart and replied, "When you take someone’s money, you eliminate their troubles. You should understand that principle as well."

Jin Yong reached out his hand and flicked the man’s blade away with his fingertips and saying calmly, "Your skills are inferior to mine."

A hint of smugness suddenly crept into the masked man’s voice. "My martial skills may be inferior to yours, but my poison techniques are better than yours."

Hearing this, Jin Yong’s heart tightened.

When he turned back, he discovered that Yang Xiao whom he had just saved had already turned purple in the face.

His breathing also turned rapid and labored.

Jin Yong no longer wasted words on the masked man.

He grabbed Yang Xiao and sprinted straight toward the palace...

The rain continued to pour down relentlessly.

No one knew that a life and death struggle had just taken place here.

The rainwater washed away all traces, leaving heaven and earth in utter silence. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

...

Gongsun Xing loved rainy days the most.

He likes to brew a pot of fragrant tea and reclining lazily on the couch while gazing at the slender bamboo outside the window or reading a storybook in his hands.

If Wang Jian were by his side as well, that would be even better.

However, today’s tranquility was shattered by an uninvited guest.

Jin Yong who is carrying Yang Xiao almost crashed straight through the window.

From afar, one could even hear the shouts of the palace guards.

Gongsun Xing looked at the two people before him.

The slight furrow of his brows showed just how foul his mood was.

"Don’t you know how to use the door?"

"Please, Miracle Doctor Gongsun, save him," Jin Yong was truly frantic now.

He was an expert among the shadow guards, yet he had allowed a third rate assassin to nearly kill someone right in front of him.

Gongsun Xing cast him a cold glance and said, "I won’t save him."

Ruining his peaceful enjoyment of bamboo and rain, he wouldn’t save him even if the Emperor personally came to beg.

Seeing Yang Xiao’s breathing grow weaker and weaker, Jin Yong said helplessly, "Miracle Doctor Gongsun, even if only for Yue Mingxuan’s sake, please save this man."

In his entire life, he had almost never begged anyone, yet today, because of a moment of negligence, he had no choice but to lower himself before Gongsun Xing.

Hearing Jin Yong say this, Gongsun Xing finally cast a proper glance at Yang Xiao lying on the ground.

His breathing was rapid and his complexion purplish, this was a very simple paralytic type poison.

Gongsun Xing took out a silver needle from his sleeve and casually pierced several acupoints on Yang Xiao’s body before saying, "Alright, he won’t die, but don’t even think about walking for the rest of his life."

Jin Yong cupped his hands toward him and said, "Many thanks to Miracle Doctor Gongsun for your assistance. I will remember this favor."

After speaking, he picked up Yang Xiao from the ground and was about to leave.

Unexpectedly, he moved quickly, but Gongsun Xing was even faster.

With a flash of his figure, Gongsun Xing blocked the doorway. "I don’t care about whatever favor you owe me, but you must tell me how this fellow got involved with Yue Mingxuan."

Jin Yong looked troubled.

This matter was an internal secret of the shadow guards and naturally could not be disclosed to Gongsun Xing.

"Miracle Doctor Gongsun, please don’t make things difficult for me. I can’t speak about this matter."

Gongsun Xing smiled and stepped aside to let him pass. "Do as you wish. Oh, right, almost forgot to tell you. If you don’t say anything, the fellow you’re carrying has only a quarter of an hour left to live."

At that moment, Yang Xiao had already woken up.

The strange sensations in his body told him he had been poisoned and upon hearing Gongsun Xing’s diagnosis of "only a quarter of an hour left," he was instantly scared out of his wits. Even his speech became incoherent. "Mi... Miracle Doctor Gongsun, Miracle Doctor Gongsun, I beg you to save me. Whatever you want to know, I’ll say it all."

Gongsun Xing glanced at Jin Yong and then leisurely sat down by the table, he completely adopting an attitude of do whatever you like.
