Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 269: Secret Assistance



Shangguan Biyue hesitated. Now the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity was right in front of her, yet, she hesitated.

What surprised her even more was that from the very beginning, her appearance had been under Xiao Tianyu's control. And Xiao Tianyu had not dealt with her for a long time, making her even more puzzled — why had Xiao Tianyu drunk the wine, knowing it was poisoned?

Now, coupled with the fact that they had shared a bed before, she could not bear to make a move, her mind was a mess, just a chaos.

Shangguan Biyue knew clearly that if she didn't kill Xiao Tianyu this time, there would be no chance later, and if the master of the Seven-Star Tower found out that she, Shangguan Biyue, let Xiao Tianyu go, then she, Shangguan Biyue, would be the one to die. After all, it was betrayal. Would the master of the Seven-Star Tower spare her?

Swish~

A cold gleam flashed, the dagger in Shangguan Biyue's hand moved an inch forward, already touching Xiao Tianyu's throat, yet stopped again.

Why?

Why am I reluctant to make a move? Shangguan Biyue, Shangguan Biyue, are you still the number one killer of the Seven-Star Tower? Why have you become so soft-hearted? Shangguan Biyue continued to struggle in her heart, two lines of tears kept falling.

However, just at this moment, a figure in black floated in through the window, moving unpredictably. Shangguan Biyue's eyebrows furrowed, her beautiful eyes turned to stare at the newcomer: "Skywalker!"

Indeed, this mysterious visitor was one of the Twelve Walkers of the Seven-Star Tower, the most formidable one, known as Skywalker. His pitch-black eyes fixed on Shangguan Biyue: "Still not making a move?"

"I..." Shangguan Biyue's right hand trembled, Skywalker frowned: "Do you intend to disobey the master's orders?"

"I dare not!" Shangguan Biyue shook her head.

"Good!" Skywalker nodded: "Then just finish him off. Once he is dead, the Seven-Star Tower will rule the entire Martial Combat Realm, and you will be the greatest hero. Don't disappoint the master!"

"What does it mean that the master sent you to monitor me?" Shangguan Biyue retorted, as Skywalker was not appearing in her villa for the first time.

Skywalker's pitch-black eyes looked at Shangguan Biyue, coldly saying: "I told you, it is the master worrying about your safety, that's why I'm here to protect you!"

"Heh heh heh!" Shangguan Biyue let out a cold laugh: "Am I a child? Clearly, the master is suspicious of me, that's why you are here to monitor me!"

"You dare to question the master?"

"I have been working diligently for the Seven-Star Tower, and what I got is the master's suspicion. It seems that if I don't kill Xiao Tianyu today, I won't have a way out when I return, right?" Shangguan Biyue said.

"Shangguan Fei, you know the master's temper, you can't blame the master. So many days have passed, and you haven't completed the task. The master's suspicion is quite normal. Now an opportunity is right in front of you!"

After saying this, Skywalker pointed at Xiao Tianyu and continued: "Kill him, you will regain the master's trust and become the biggest hero of the Seven-Star Tower. Still not making a move!"

Hearing this, Shangguan Biyue not only didn't make a move but withdrew the dagger instead, her beautiful eyes stared at Skywalker, making Skywalker's gaze extremely cold: "You intend to betray the master?"

"It's not betrayal!"

"Could it be that you've fallen for him? Let me remind you, as the number one killer of the Seven-Star Tower, you are not allowed to have emotions. If you let him go today, your fate will be a dead end!" Skywalker said.

"Failing to complete one task means death? Is this the sorrow of being a killer?" Shangguan Biyue sneered: "I will not make the move!"

With that, her beautiful eyes looked at Xiao Tianyu. At this moment, she smiled. Perhaps she had figured it out, or maybe she truly liked Xiao Tianyu, or perhaps Xiao Tianyu made her realize there is still emotion in this world.

"If you don't make a move, I'll do it in your place!" Skywalker shook his black cloak, brandishing a long sword, the cold light flickered, moving with extreme speed toward Xiao Tianyu's throat, with the intent, one strike to seal the throat.

Swish!

At this moment, a cold glint flashed from Shangguan Biyue's hand, tilting forward.

Clang!

The sound of weapons clashing resounded, the long sword in Skywalker's hand was actually blocked by Shangguan Biyue.

Skywalker's eyes flashed with a hint of killing intent: "Shangguan Fei, you dare stop me from killing?"

"This is my business!"

"You are betraying the Seven-Star Tower. Have you considered what a tragic end it will be if the master finds out?" Having said this, Skywalker continued: "If you are wise, step aside, or there will be no turning back for you!"

As the words fell, Skywalker's figure flickered, and another sword flashed out, this one even faster, reaching an invisible state.

Seeing this scene, Shangguan Biyue's heart was shocked, taking a step forward, her capturing hand extended toward Skywalker's wrist. Seeing the long sword about to pierce Xiao Tianyu's throat, Shangguan Biyue's capturing hand suddenly gripped Skywalker's wrist.

Following this, the dagger in her right hand flashed coldly, stabbing toward Skywalker's throat, causing Skywalker to be greatly shocked, retreating a step, the dagger grazed his neck, leaving a blood mark.

If Skywalker's reaction had been a moment slower, that dagger would not just have left a shallow blood mark on his throat, but rather a strike to seal the throat.

"You dare to kill me!" Skywalker's eyes revealed murderous intent as he tried to kill Xiao Tianyu, but Shangguan Biyue tried to kill him instead, it was utterly audacious.

The current Shangguan Biyue was also throwing caution to the wind. Since she wouldn't kill Xiao Tianyu, she would protect him from dying, unless Skywalker killed her. This impulsiveness, even Shangguan Biyue didn't know why.

Just now, watching Xiao Tianyu about to be sealed by a strike, she didn't think, just rushed over.

Afterward, Shangguan Biyue spoke: "It's not that I want to kill you, but you cannot touch him, or don't blame me for being ruthless!"

"You court death!" Skywalker's black cloak flew up, covering Shangguan Biyue. At the same time, his long sword flashed out under the cloak, sealing Shangguan Biyue's throat.

Puff puff puff~

The cloak shattered under Shangguan Biyue's dagger, yet the opponent's Sword Light was too fast, almost reaching her throat. Instantly, Shangguan Biyue felt a chill sweeping over, giving rise to a sense of despair in her heart, was she going to die? Tianyu, I'm sorry!

However, it was naturally impossible for Shangguan Biyue to wait for death. She wanted to employ Heaven and Earth's Longevity, even if she died, she would take them down together. Perhaps this way Xiao Tianyu would still have a slim chance of survival.

Her body lunged forward as the Sword Light was about to seal her throat, she closed her eyes, but the dagger in her hand flew out, similarly targeting Skywalker's throat, startling Skywalker. He hastily sidestepped, the dagger plunged into his shoulder, narrowly escaping disaster.

Yet, the long sword in his hand still howled forward, Shangguan Biyue knew that this strike was unavoidable, bound to result in death.

Whoosh~

At this moment, Xiao Tianyu, who lay on the table, flicked his finger, a beam of light shot out, the next second: "Boom..."

Skywalker's body was blown away by a terrible force, even Skywalker himself didn't know why, with terror in his heart, when did Shangguan Biyue's power become so profound?
