Chapter 299: Second Rework: The Princess of the Lost Country 2
While Prince Duan was traveling day and night, a mysterious man in a black cloak quietly entered the Jade Kingdom, looking exhausted.
At night, when Yuyan had washed up, changed her clothes and was about to go to bed, suddenly a cold knife was placed on her neck.
Yu Yan was stunned, looking at the knife on her neck in disbelief and fell into deep thought.
What the hell is this assassin? How could she not notice him just now? Was she taking the bath too seriously or...
Before Yuyan could think deeply, the sharp sword pressed down and her delicate neck was immediately cut. Bright red blood flowed out. At this time, the man's gloomy words were heard in her ears.
"Empress of the Jade Kingdom?"
Yuyan frowned, a little angry. If you want to talk, just say it. Why are you scratching my neck?
Yuyan responded lightly, tilted her head slightly to one side, and asked the other party calmly.
"Who are you? I don't have any blood enemies. What are you doing? Let's talk it over nicely without bloodshed."
Although she was a little impatient to unify the surrounding small countries, she never killed innocent people indiscriminately and always conquered them quietly. So what was the matter with this assassin?
The man standing behind Yuyan on the right was dressed in black and a hooded cloak of the same color. He even had a black mask on his face, which completely covered his entire body.
He held the sword to control Yuyan, looked at her lifeless eyes in a casual tone and with a hint of doubt, and muttered to himself.
"blind?"
"Hey, you scold me! Just because you have a broken sword, you can scold me casually. Let me tell you, when I get angry, even I am afraid of it..."
Yuyan spoke fiercely, but when the man cut her neck again, her arrogance immediately subsided. However, she still couldn't help but question him in a low voice.
"Okay! I'm blind. You, a strong man, are bullying a blind woman. Don't you feel guilty? Don't you feel guilty?"
"Not really. I heard that you want to be the queen of Yan Country?"
"Uh, you were sent by Yan Country? Just because I proposed the idea of marrying over there for an alliance? You want to kill people to silence them? Is your Majesty so tough?" Yu Yan was obviously stunned when she heard what the other party said.
I never thought that the dog emperor was so tough. He was just forced to marry! He actually came to kill me? He is so lacking in virtue.
"No, I just admire him and want to marry him. Is he so resistant? If that's the case, then forget it. It's not a big deal! There's no need to silence him! Go back!"
As Yu Yan spoke, she gently pinched the sword with both hands and tried to move it away, but... it didn't move.
She had no choice but to continue to persuade the man: "What's going on? Is this bite going to be destroyed today? Your Majesty is not leaving any room for him, right?"
Before the man could say anything, the system spoke first.
"Host, don't talk nonsense. Ask clearly who wants to kill you."
"Isn't it obvious? It's Emperor Xuanyuan. It's because he has no taste. I have beauty and strength, but he rejected me. He deserves to be an old man and a bachelor forever."
As soon as Yu Yan finished her complaint, the system loudly denied and refuted her words.
"He can't kill you."
Yu Yan was puzzled, but before she could speak again, another blood mark appeared on her neck. She heard the man's icy voice behind her, full of indifference and warning.
"Tasker, stop playing tricks, you..."
As soon as the man said this, Yuyan's eyes widened instantly, and she even forgot that there was a sword on her neck.
She turned her head and looked at the man with empty eyes, her face full of disbelief.
"You, you, you... Time and Space Hunter?"
Facing Yuyan's question, the man did not answer, but the sword against Yuyan's neck was pressed tighter again. At this time, Yuyan's neck was already covered with blood.
Yuyan didn't have time to care about the minor injury on her neck at the moment. She quickly discussed with the system in her mind.
"Fuck, system, how come he came to me so quickly? What should I do now? Will he refuse to admit it? But he is quite capable. Am I going to be forced to shut down?"
"........."
The system played dead and did not answer.
After thinking about it, he decided that he couldn't just watch the host get killed, so he quickly came up with another idea.
"Why don't you negotiate with him? We will have a lot of energy after we destroy this world, and we will also be able to compensate for the energy that destroyed the world before. Talk to him and ask him to give you some time and not arrest you for the time being. Otherwise, the mission will fail, and no one will be happy."
Hearing this, Yuyan quickly grabbed the man's hand and talked to him in a kind way, trying to buy herself more time.
"...How do you call me, big brother? It's hard to chase me! But you see, I'm a pauper now, and I don't have any energy to pay you back. How about you wait for a few days, and I'll try to finish this world as quickly as possible, and then pay you back all the energy without a single drop owed?"
The man didn't say anything. He looked at Yuyan quietly with his deep eyes for a while, then he put the sword back silently.
The crisis was temporarily resolved, Yu Yan breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but sigh to the system.
"You time and space hunters are quite easy to talk to!"
"…This is indeed easy to communicate with. I can only say that you are lucky. The time-space hunters I heard are all inhumane and conservative, and they only know how to follow orders."
"…I'm usually lucky. I've been tossing and turning for the whole night. I'm exhausted. Let me sleep and finish the task tomorrow."
After Yuyan finished her sigh, she was about to go to bed, but then she remembered that the man had not left and had been standing beside her, watching her quietly.
So she kindly invited him, "Brother, you haven't left yet? Do you want to stay and rest for a night?"
Yuyan thought that it was not easy for him to chase her all over the world, so she kindly wanted to invite him to stay for a night. Well, of course, he slept in the outer room.
She had good intentions, but she didn't expect to receive a cold look and a sneer from the man, who then turned around and quickly disappeared.
Yuyan curled her lips and ignored him. She took a handkerchief and casually wiped the blood off her neck, then lay down and went to sleep.
After that day, the man acted like an overseer, always appearing beside Yuyan in mysterious ways, silently reminding her to speed up the task.
Yuyan was speechless. Is it necessary to be so dedicated? I won't default on my debt. Is it necessary to stare at her all day? She is really stubborn.
The subplot of the Jade Kingdom strengthening its army and establishing a nation has been almost completed, but the main plot is all about Emperor Xuanyuan.
Even though she was very eager to complete the task quickly, all she could do was wait quietly for a reply from Yan Country.
