Children of Loulan

At this moment, Aidil stared at her with his eyes wide open, as if he had lost consciousness. His mouth was slightly open, and blood was flowing out continuously, forming a shocking red stream of blood.

What was even more shocking was that at the position of Aidil's heart, there was actually a sharp blade piercing through his back! The blade was deeply embedded in his body, with only a small part of the handle exposed outside, which looked very terrifying.

This sudden scene completely shocked Xilin. She stared at everything that happened in front of her with wide eyes, unable to understand why this happened.

Before she could recover from the shock, suddenly, a creepy "pop" sound reached her ears. She widened her eyes in horror, and saw that the sharp blade that was originally inserted into Aidil's body was suddenly pulled back by a huge force.

Aidil's body lost its support and slowly fell in front of her like an empty shell with its soul taken away. Blood gushed out from his wounds, instantly staining the ground red, forming a shocking pool of blood.

Her mind went blank, and she was completely unable to accept what was happening before her eyes. Aidil died right in front of her, and she could only watch helplessly.

However, before she could recover from her grief, the man holding the sharp blade suddenly roared: "Avenge my lord!" Before he finished speaking, the sword in his hand stabbed towards Xilin like lightning.

Seeing that the fatal sword was about to pierce Xilin, at this critical moment, Keremu attacked with lightning speed. His movement was as fast as lightning, and he knocked the sword out of the man's hand in one go.

The man obviously did not expect Keremu to suddenly attack. He widened his eyes in astonishment, glared at Keremu, and asked, "Your Highness, what do you mean?"

Keremu's face was as gloomy as water. He looked at Aidier lying on the ground and said slowly, "She wanted to die. Death is a kind of relief for her."

Listening to the conversation between the two, Xilin's eyes widened, and she looked at the man who assassinated her in disbelief. She could never have imagined that this man would be the leader of her private soldiers! Over the years, this man has always been highly valued by her, and she has also handed over her private soldiers to him for management.

Xilin's voice was filled with astonishment and disappointment: "You...you actually betrayed me too? I've treated you well over the years! Why did you betray me?"

However, facing Xilin's questioning, the man just smiled contemptuously, as if he didn't care at all about her words. He replied coldly: "I have never been loyal to you, so how can I say I betrayed you? I stayed by your side all these years just to wait for the opportunity today to avenge my master!"

Xilin frowned and asked, "Who is your lord?"

The man raised his mouth slightly, revealing a sinister smile, and said, "It's Tohti from back then!"

Xilin's face turned pale instantly. She certainly remembered Toheti. Toheti was the father of Aidil's adoptive mother. He was exterminated by the king because he raised private soldiers. She couldn't help but ask in confusion: "But he was exterminated by the king. What does it have to do with me? If you want revenge, shouldn't you go to the king?"

The man was so angry that he was shaking all over. He widened his eyes and glared at the person in front of him. His voice was trembling with anger: "You still want to quibble? In the contest between my lord and the king, although the lord was defeated in the end, he still had a glimmer of hope. At that time, the lord's family had already fled to the city gate and were about to escape, but you forged an order at this critical moment and transferred the 5,000 troops ambushed outside the city! Because of this one step difference, the lord's family was captured by the king again! The poor lord could only watch his relatives being captured, but he was powerless! And the lord was old, he really couldn't stand living alone for the rest of his life, and finally had to choose to return to the city and accompany his family to the dead end together!"

Xilin listened quietly, her face gradually becoming solemn. After the man finished speaking, she was silent for a moment, then slowly asked: "So, from the beginning, you came here to avenge him?"

The man gritted his teeth, a trace of determination flashed in his eyes, and he answered without disguising: "That's right! After the tragic death of the master's family, I swore to avenge the master! So, when I found the group of private soldiers you transferred away, I did not act immediately, but chose to lie dormant. I waited patiently and searched slowly, and finally I found that the culprit who killed the master was you!"

Xilin's expression turned extremely ugly. She widened her eyes, staring at the person in front of her, and asked in disbelief, "Since you have already discovered that I am your enemy, why didn't you kill me earlier?"

The man raised his mouth slightly, revealing a contemptuous smile, and said softly: "I have wanted to kill you several times, but I think that would be too easy for you. So, I decided to take away what you care about most, so that you can also experience the despair of the lord before his death!"

Xilin's body trembled violently, and she said in a trembling voice: "So, when you learned that I was going to seize the throne, you joined forces with the prince without hesitation?"

The man nodded, a hint of pride flashed in his eyes. He sneered and said, "Not only that, when you ordered people to go to the royal mausoleum to assassinate the prince, I deliberately asked them to bring only 500 soldiers. Moreover, when the assassins from the Seven Stars Pavilion were about to succeed, I deliberately asked them to rush in and create chaos. This not only gave the prince reinforcements time, but also made your plan fail completely."

After hearing these words, Xilin's face turned pale as paper, and her body was shaky, as if she might fall down at any time. She said with a sad smile: "So that's how it is, it seems that all this is God's will! If God wants to kill me, what can I do? Hahahaha..."

Then, as if attracted by a magnet, her eyes slowly fell on Aidil lying on the ground. It was a lifeless body, as if all life had been taken away in an instant. Aidil's face was as pale as paper, his eyes were still staring at her direction, his lips slightly opened, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end no sound came out.

Her hand trembled as she slowly raised it and reached for her hair. It was an exquisite hairpin, gleaming with a faint light. Her fingers tightly grasped the hairpin, as if it was the last support of her life.

Without any hesitation, she yanked the hairpin off, the sharp tip flashing coldly in the sun. Then, without any hesitation, she stabbed the hairpin into her heart, her movements swift and decisive.

Maihemuti stared at the scene with wide eyes and horror. He whimpered in his throat and tried to speak out to stop it, but his mouth was tightly blocked and he couldn't make any sound. He struggled desperately, trying to break free from the ropes that tied him, but it was all in vain.
