The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 766

Chapter 766: 356 Father’s Love is as Great as a Mountain (Third Watch)

Eh... can the gunpowder that fell into the water still be used?

That’s not the point; the point is that he no longer has the opportunity to fish it out. Two black-clothed men swung their swords at him, their strong killing intent wrapped in sharp sword energy, almost stirring up blades of wind from a distance, even breaking the air!

Such a deadly move could hardly be escaped even by an ordinary expert, let alone Xiao Liulang, a handicapped little guy. _{freeweɓnovēl.coɱ}

He could only watch the opponents’ swords swinging towards him with wide-open eyes until he finally closed them.

The two long swords aimed at his head swung down simultaneously, but ultimately they didn’t manage to fall. At a distance of just one inch away from him, both men abruptly halted.

Xiao Liulang suddenly opened his eyes.

The two men plunked down, not even having had the chance to close their eyes.

Behind them, Chang Jing smoothly withdrew his sword!

Then Chang Jing went looking for the black bead in the water!

He fished the black bead out as though it was really amusing, then squeezed it hard. Bang!

He was blasted to a crisp —

The Marquis of Xuanping sauntered casually from behind the hill. Dressed in a regal purple brocade robe, he ambled along leisurely with a languid expression.

That’s just the way he was. Even on a rural path, he managed to stroll as if he was on the path to becoming an immortal.

Upon seeing him, Xiao Liulang’s expression didn’t change, as indifferent as ever.

Fortunately, the Marquis of Xuanping had grown accustomed to it. He approached Xiao Liulang, sizing him up from head to toe to see if he had been injured.

Once he confirmed his son was untouched, he glanced at Chang Jing, who had been blasted to a crisp and was sitting on the ground in a daze, and kicked lightly at Chang Jing’s butt with the tip of his foot: "Who told you to kill them all? How many times have I said it, leave some alive, leave some alive!"

Chang Jing ignored him, stood up with a dark face, and walked away using light body technique.

Well, he’s angry now.

The Marquis of Xuanping watched Chang Jing walking away, then turned to Xiao Liulang: "Chang Jing is young, don’t be mad at him."

Xiao Liulang gave the Marquis of Xuanping a blank look. Who was it exactly who was mad at whom?

Marquis of Xuanping, still oblivious to Xiao Liulang’s disdain, flicked his wide sleeve carelessly: "Who did you offend that someone would want to kill you?"

Xiao Liulang also ignored him, picked up his walking stick, and walked past him.

Although it’s called a walking stick, it’s actually a pretty cane that Gu Jiao personally made. Now that his foot no longer had that heart-wrenching pain, he was no longer as incapacitated as before.

The Marquis of Xuanping, having been continuously ignored, wasn’t bothered. He had a large heart and didn’t hold grudges with kids.

He shamelessly caught up.

People who were handsome looked even more charming when they thickened their skin. The green mountains and rivers, the twilight and rosy clouds, none were as lovely as his advantageous countenance.

Sadly, no matter how handsome he looked, it didn’t work on someone who didn’t waste a glance on him.

"Sigh." the Marquis of Xuanping sighed.

As long as Xiao Liulang walked, the person behind him would keep sighing.

Xiao Liulang squeezed his fingers and frowned, "Why are you following me?"

Marquis of Xuanping raised an eyebrow, "Am I following you? Is this road yours? Did you plant this tree?"

Xiao Liulang coldly replied, "I’m heading back to the village."

Marquis of Xuanping said, "What a coincidence, so am I!"

Xiao Liulang turned and walked down a different path.

The Marquis of Xuanping smoothly caught up.

Xiao Liulang stopped in his tracks, pointed to the path they had just been on, and said, "The village is that way!"

The Marquis of Xuanping felt tricked: "..."

Haha, as long as he wasn’t embarrassed, everyone else was.

Marquis of Xuanping raised his eyebrows: "I prefer to go this way. All roads lead to the village!"

Xiao Liulang took a deep breath, deciding to ignore him, treating him as thin air.

He took a few steps back to the path they originally took. As his steps advanced, the sky darkened, the woods were eerily quiet, sporadic noises from insects and odd sounds from birds and beasts echoed through the woods, sounding blood-curdling.

The trees in this forest were tall and could conceal the sun, even the moonlight had a hard time falling.

Marquis of Xuanping was a martial artist and his eyes were especially sharp; he could see where he was going even in dim light, but the same couldn’t be said for Xiao Liulang.

Being handicapped and not being able to see the path clearly, he stumbled several times.

The Marquis of Xuanping strode over, positioned himself in front of Xiao Liulang, slightly bent down, and offered, "Hop on."

Xiao Liulang looked at the broad back hunched over in front of him but didn’t move: "I can walk by myself."

Marquis of Xuanping stood straight, turned around, and looked at him: "Are you sure? The road is so dark, can you walk?"
