Crossing the Sauvignon Blanc

Chapter 173 The Death of Tushan Hou

Xinyue's face was embarrassed for a moment, but soon returned to normal. Everyone was chatting and talking. Xiaoyao did not deliberately ask about Mu Fei, but fate always seemed inescapable.

Just like her, she had clearly made her attitude clear in front of Xuan, that she liked Fang Fengbei, but she still couldn't change Xuan's mind of letting her meet Tu Shanjing and Fenglong.

Fate is sometimes ironic

A noble lady asked curiously, "Who was that noble lady who screamed just now? She seemed to be frightened by something."

Xinyue poured a glass of wine for each of Xuanxuan and Fenglong, and replied nonchalantly, "Don't worry about her. She's also a pitiful person. Her whole family was wiped out by the evil Chichen, and she's the only one left. Sometimes she gets mad when she's provoked."

Feng Long also echoed: "That's right, Chi Chen did destroy many clans back then, so when Chi Chen died later, many people in the Central Plains applauded.

Xinyue sneered disdainfully: "He deserves it! It's his fault for committing so many murders."

Fang Fengbei was about to speak when Xiaoyao stopped him. Xiaoyao patted Fang Fengbei's hand, stood up, and sneered, "Chichen is the devil, but what is the person who started the war? A devil? Without Chichen, do you think you can sit here in peace? Anyone can insult Chichen, but Shennong can't!"

"Xiao Yao! Stop talking nonsense!" Xuan Xuan quickly stood up to stop him. If he continued talking, he would have no chance of regaining the Central Plains.

"Hmph!" Xiao Yao snorted coldly. She felt really sorry for her father. She didn't understand in her previous life, but her sister had told her everything. Her father was a bit of a bastard, but he had never done anything wrong to Shennong from beginning to end!

"Why can't I? It's a fact that he killed someone!" Xinyue was dissatisfied and retorted.

"If you don't understand, go back and ask your father and see how he raised his children!"

"Xiaoyao, talk less!" Xuan looked at her with pleading eyes. Xiaoyao turned her face away and didn't look at him, but she didn't say anything else.

"Xinyue, these fruits are delicious. Go and bring a few more plates over for Fenglong and me."

Xuan coaxed Xinyue softly, holding Xinyue's hand under the table and kneading it, persuading her softly.

"Don't be angry. I'll definitely talk to her when I get back. He's been wandering around since he was a kid and has a bad temper. Don't bother with her."

Seeing Xuanxuan's gentle expression, Xinyue's expression also relaxed a lot. She stood up and said with a smile, "Let's not talk about unimportant people, so as not to hurt the harmony. I'll go get some more fruits, and everyone can enjoy them slowly."

Everyone wisely stopped talking about it. But the atmosphere was not as lively as before.

Mu Fei heard the quarrel from a distance. Listening to Xiao Yao's words defending Chi Chen, he confirmed his guess in his heart that she was the bastard left behind by Chi Chen. His lowered eyes burst into crazy hatred.

Fang Fengbei glanced at Mu Fei intentionally or unintentionally, with a hint of amusement at the corners of his slightly curved lips, feeling that something fun was about to happen again.

Tu Shanjing left the banquet alone, leaving his clone behind as he headed towards Caoao Ridge. In this life, his Wen Xiaoliu was no longer around. Surrounded by powerful figures, he had no chance. He had considered exposing Fang Fengbei's identity as Xiangliu, but with Xiaoyao's current power, if he made a move, he'd be gone for good. He didn't want to die, so why had he returned? Now, half-human, half-ghost, he lived on the memories of his past life with Xiaoyao. He treasured her tenderness, care, and concern, even if it wasn't love, just pity. When had she seen through all his calculations? She hated him so much. It shouldn't be like this. How could Xiaoyao look at him with such coldness and distance, without a trace of pity? He was clearly worse off than in his previous life...

In the evening, a maid slipped a note into Tushan Hou's hand. Tushan Hou took it carelessly, walked to the rockery, opened it quickly, and then walked out as if nothing had happened.

Came to Tu Shanjing and patted his shoulder

"Second brother, when will you go back?"

Tu Shanjing smiled gently and replied, "Let's go back later, after the banquet is over.

At the fireworks show in the evening, Xinyue was talking and laughing with Xiaoyao again, as if the quarrel in the afternoon had never happened, and Xiaoyao did not mention it again. Fenglong looked at Xiaoyao from time to time, but was always blocked by Fangfengbei intentionally or unintentionally, so he could only helplessly stop paying attention.

After the banquet, Xuan came over to say goodbye to Xiaoyao and told Yinyue to take good care of Xiaoyao before returning. He also wanted to stay and discuss something with Fenglong. Although he disliked Fangfengbei, he still told Fangfengbei

The two of them got into the carriage, Xiao Yao set up a barrier, and then talked to Fang Fengbei about Tu Shanjing.

"He's finally stopped hiding. Let's see how long he can hold back. Did Tushan Hou find the right person for the assassination tonight?"

"Well, I sent someone to follow Tu Shan Jing. He's now in Caoao Ridge. I sent someone a note to Tu Shan Hou. I hope he's not too useless. Should we go and take a look?"

"Yes! I want to see how crazy he can go to get me!

"Yin Yue, go to Caoao Ridge!"

It was late at night, the shadows of the trees were swaying, and more than a dozen figures flashed across the silent night sky.

Tu Shanjing had been sitting alone in a daze. Faced with the dozen or so men in black who suddenly surrounded him, he showed no sign of panic. He simply stood up slowly, a faintly mocking smile on his face. He pointed to the shadows behind a large tree and said jokingly, "What, big brother, is all you can do about hiding? You're about to kill me, why don't you come out and talk?"

Tu Shan Hou, dressed in black, stepped out. His good brother seemed to have changed, so what! Tonight was his death date, and no one could save him. Moreover, he was not the only one who wanted Tu Shan Jing's life. If someone hadn't sent a message, he would have escaped tonight.

"Second brother, you're living such a pathetic life. You might as well go see your mother soon. That bitch of hers is just as disgusting as you are. Tonight is the day you die. Come on!"

More than a dozen killers rushed up at once. Tu Shanjing dodged the swords nimbly. Suddenly, Tu Shanjing's five fingers turned into claws, and the claws were dark ink-colored. Two balls of black air gathered between his fingers and kept surging. The black air scratched the killer's skin, and he froze in place as if cursed. Tu Shanjing was completely enveloped by the black air. The scratched killer opened his mouth as if controlled by poison. For a moment, the killer's blood, energy, and consciousness were all devoured by Tu Shanjing.

"You actually practiced magic?"

Tushan Hou looked at Tushan Jing who was like a devil, and felt a little timid in his heart, but he had more than a dozen people, and he didn't believe he could kill them all.

"Be careful, don't get scratched by him!"

"Hahahaha, isn't this all thanks to you? If it weren't for you, would I have become like this? You don't even leave me the most basic dignity. You said you were alive and well, why did you actively seek death? I didn't want you to die so quickly, but you all saw it, so I can't keep you here!"

The hoarse voice sounded like it came from hell, cold and evil, even with a strange laugh that made people tremble with fear.

"Go together!"

Tushan Hou also joined in, and everyone picked up their knives and started chopping without mercy. Soon, Tushan Jing was covered with wounds, but five of the killers were swallowed by him, leaving only skin and bones, and turned into mummies.

Tushan Hou did not dare to be negligent at all. After exchanging looks, several people rushed up again. They were all killers hired by Tushan Hou. They were controlled by poison every month. If they failed to complete the task, they would die.

The two sides fought for half an hour, and the last killer was killed.

It’s not that Tushan Hou doesn’t want to leave, but every time he wants to leave, there is always a dark aura that forces him to come back. Now, it has even trapped him tightly.

"Why, big brother wants to escape now?

"Second brother...I...I am your eldest brother, you can't kill me!"

“Hehehehe… Now you know you’re my big brother, so why didn’t you know I was your little brother when you were beating me up?

Tu Shan Jing picked up a sword on the ground. The tip of the sword dragged on the ground, making a sharp scraping sound, which made Tu Shan Hou feel his scalp tingling.

"Where do we start?"

The tip of the sword pointed at Tushanhou's carotid artery

"With just a slight scratch, Big Brother would have died of blood gushing out. The process shouldn't have been too painful, but how could that be? Big Brother tortured me for three whole years. Do you know how I got through it? How could I not hate you? I wish I could pull out your tendons, peel off your skin, and nail you to a wooden board so that you too could taste the pain of being tortured and slaughtered.

Four strands of black air directly rolled up Tushan Hou's limbs, and Tushan Hou's body, which was trembling with fear, was hung in the air in a spread-eagle position.

"Tu Shanjing, what on earth do you want to do! If you want to kill me, do it quickly!"

The sound of a sword cutting through flesh and blood and screams echoed throughout Caoao Ridge.

Tushan Hou's lower body was completely cut off! Tushan Jing cut his clothes, leaving Tushan Hou naked and exposed to the air! A ball of black air blocked Tushan Hou's mouth.

"Too noisy! It just started, and you can't help it, brother? Why didn't you ask me if it hurt when you cut me there?"

Tushan Jing's voice changed from evil to a crazy roar. He cut off Tushan Hou's skin one by one. Tushan Hou fainted from the pain and woke up again, until there was no flesh left on its body.

Tu Shan Jing gasped for breath, looked at the dying Tu Shan Hou, and smiled with satisfaction. Then he laughed wildly.

"Brother, I'll take you on your way!"

After a while, another mummy appeared on the ground.

Tu Shanjing returned to normal, then suddenly squatted on the ground and burst into tears. It wasn't until dawn that he picked up the body, dug a hole with his magic, buried it, changed his clothes, and strode down the mountain.
