The Concubine Strikes Back: The Marquis Insists on Me to Be His Wife

Chapter 370 Tit for tat

Su Qing, who was standing by, had a bad feeling when she heard Jiang Weiyang say this. She was keenly aware that things might not be as simple as they seemed. It seemed that Jiang Weiyang had come here not just to accompany her to enjoy the scenery, but for other purposes.

"It's the Han family..." Su Qing couldn't help but frowned, her face becoming serious. She knew the Han family's status and influence in the capital, and they dared to carry out such a bold assassination, so they would not give up easily. Thinking of this, Su Qing felt a little worried.

However, Jiang Weiyang was unusually calm. He gently patted Su Qing on the shoulder and comforted her, "Don't worry, I'm here." His voice was firm and powerful, as if it gave Su Qing a reassurance. Su Qing looked at him with a look of trust in her eyes.

At this moment, a melodious flute sound suddenly reached everyone's ears. The sound was melodious and pleasant, like weeping and complaining, and it made people intoxicated. Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man in green standing elegantly on a branch, holding a flute and playing a dreamlike melody.

Jiang Weiyang's eyes turned cold the moment he heard the sound of the flute. He stared at the man on the tree and muttered to himself, "It's him..." Obviously, he knew this mysterious flute player.

Seeing this, Su Qing asked curiously, "Who is he? Why do you react like this?"

Jiang Weiyang took a deep breath and answered solemnly, "He is a killer trained by the Han family, named Han Fei. He is very powerful and has assassinated many masters. He is very cunning and has sinister means. He has always been my mortal enemy. I didn't expect to meet him here this time..."

Before Jiang Weiyang finished speaking, Han Fei flew down from the tree like a flash of lightning, holding an extremely sharp dagger in his hand, and stabbed straight at Jiang Weiyang's throat like a tiger descending from the mountain. This attack was as fast as the wind, catching people off guard!

Jiang Weiyang was indeed a master. He dodged Han Fei's fatal blow with a flick of his body. At the same time, he quickly drew out the soft and flexible sword at his waist and rushed towards Han Fei's dagger. In an instant, cold light flashed, sparks flew, and the two swords crossed each other, making a crisp collision sound.

The two sides fought back and forth, with sharp sword moves and neither side giving in. Their figures shuttled through the air like ghosts, and every swing of the sword brought a deadly threat, dazzling the eyes and making it difficult to tell who was winning. The fierce battle was so intense that it seemed as if the air around them was torn apart, forming a powerful aura.

Su Qing stood aside, anxious, staring at the battlefield with wide eyes, but she couldn't intervene because she had no martial arts skills. At this moment, she suddenly noticed that Han Fei's swordsmanship seemed to have revealed a slight flaw. So, she shouted without hesitation: "Jiang Weiyang, attack his left rib!"

Hearing Su Qing's reminder, Jiang Weiyang understood instantly. He immediately changed his sword moves and stabbed Han Fei's left rib.

This sudden change caught Han Fei off guard, and it was too late for him to dodge. The soft sword pierced his body mercilessly, and scarlet blood gushed out like a fountain. Han Fei covered his wound painfully, staggered back, and a trace of astonishment and unwillingness flashed in his eyes.

He never thought that he would reveal a flaw at this critical moment and be severely injured by his opponent. However, the battle was not over yet. Han Fei endured the severe pain and persisted.

“Is there a master around Young Marquis Jiang? Hahahaha…” The laughter spread throughout the entire valley. The laughter was eerie and terrifying, as if it contained a strange power that made people feel creepy and shudder.

"Han Fei, I don't want to kill you because you are a talented person. You'd better turn back from your mistakes. The crown prince has already fallen, and the new emperor has been on the throne for a long time. The Han family cannot shake him."

"Young Marquis Jiang sang this play very well, but you should not be happy too soon." After he finished speaking, Han Fei took out the flute, put it to his lips, and uttered a series of piercing and heart-shaking sounds.

Su Qing felt her scalp tingling instantly, and a rustling sound came from the grass.

Rufeng shouted at this time, "Oh no, there is a snake, protect the Marquis and the Madam."
