CHAPTER 314: CHAPTER 314: THE ASSASSINS ARE REALLY HERE!

Wei Wushang has a decent tolerance for alcohol!

A jar of wine is not enough to get him drunk; at best, it helps him sleep.

Soon, Wei Wushang drank the entire jar by himself, and he was a little tipsy.

Just as Wei Wushang was about to go to his room and sleep, his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of five figures stepping on the green trees outside the manor, flying towards it.

Dressed in black, masked!

Assassins!

Seeing these five figures, Wei Wushang’s drowsiness disappeared instantly.

A moment ago, he was still using the assassins from the Star-picking Tower to scare the Fourteenth Prince, and now, not long after, the assassins from the Star-picking Tower really came.

Well, whether these assassins belong to the Star-picking Tower cannot be determined yet.

But anyway, the assassins are here!

Wei Wushang made no sound, but stepped onto the roof and leapt into the air, heading towards these assassins.

No matter who these assassins came for, they could only have come for the Fourteenth Prince.

This responsibility, the Fourteenth Prince had to bear.

Only in this way could this infatuated fool leave early.

The assassins came quickly!

But, Wei Wushang was even faster!

The moment the assassins stepped onto the manor’s wall, Wei Wushang was already standing opposite them.

"Since guests come from afar, why do you hide your heads and show your tails, do you intend to steal?"

The assassins looked at Wei Wushang, exchanged glances, and suddenly rushed towards him in unison.

Wei Wushang brushed his hand across his waist, and instantly, a soft sword was gripped in his hand. Then, the sword moved like a serpent’s tongue, and in the blink of an eye, the sword’s tip pierced the throats of two assassins.

Double kill with one strike!

And with this double kill, Wei Wushang successfully broke out of the assassins’ siege. In the instant other assassins pursued, Wei Wushang used force on the wall to rebound, slashing with his soft sword, once again slicing the throat of another assassin.

Three kills!

At this point, only two assassins remained.

The two exchanged glances and decisively chose to flee.

At this moment, the Wei Family Guards were closing in, and they had lost the primary opportunity to assassinate.

Both acted simultaneously, one throwing a handful of lime powder, the other tossing a handful of flying needles. Even if it didn’t hit Wei Wushang, it could delay his pursuit and that of the manor’s guards.

However, their underhanded tricks were easily dismantled by the Flowing Cloud Water Silk that Wei Wushang flicked from his sleeve.

The two had just escaped the manor, and one was nailed to the ground by the soft sword Wei Wushang threw.

The luckier one’s peripheral vision saw his companion killed by Wei Wushang’s soft sword. Surprised and delighted, because Wei Wushang could not have a second sword to deal with him.

Unfortunately, his joy did not last long before Wei Wushang caught up and punched him in the back.

The smile on the assassin’s face froze, blood spurt from his mouth, and he died instantly.

Once all the assassins were killed, the Wei Family Guards on the manor arrived.

"Tidy up the bodies, draw their portraits, and see if you can find out who they are!"

Having given these few instructions to the guards, Wei Wushang went straight over, pulled out his soft sword from another guard, and left gracefully.

...

While the Wei Family Guards on the manor were cleaning up the bodies, the Fourteenth Prince, who had not yet gone to bed, heard the commotion and asked Mao Shenggong to find out what happened. Upon learning that assassins had attacked, he was quite unwell.

"Mao Shenggong, do you think I should return to the Capital?"

The Fourteenth Prince looked at Mao Shenggong beside him, his expression quite grave.
