Marry the crippled king and seize the kingdom with space!

Ye Zirou looked at the thief on the ground with contempt, her lips curled up sarcastically, her eyes full of disdain.

Her voice was as cold as ice and contained a stinging sarcasm.

"That's because your master is ignorant. Doesn't he know that there are always people better than you?"

Mo Tianyu stood aside, his brows furrowed. His patience had been completely exhausted, and his voice was low and threatening.

"Tell me, was the emperor sent you?"

"Emperor?" The thief seemed to have heard some huge joke and suddenly burst into arrogant laughter.

"Hahaha~ Are you talking about that stupid dog emperor? Is he worthy?"

Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou looked at each other, with a hint of surprise and confusion in their eyes. This thief was not sent by the emperor.

Then who sent this person?

Why did he know that Mo Tianyu was poisoned?

Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou knew very well that the poison was administered by both the prince and the emperor at the same time. Now the prince was dead, and only the emperor was left.

According to common sense, the person lurking around Mo Tianyu should have been sent by the emperor.

But from what this person said, he is not the emperor's man, so who is he?

"Who are you?" Ye Zirou asked in a cold tone.

When the thief saw the expressions of Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou, a smug smile appeared on his face.

He knew in his heart that Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou had no idea who was behind them, so he laughed even more unscrupulously.

"Hahaha, so what if you can solve the poison? My master has other ways to kill Mo Tianyu." The thief's voice revealed arrogance and confidence.

Ye Zirou smiled and said, "Oh, really? Then why don't you tell me who your master is? Let's see who will die in the end, you or us."

The thief didn't expect Ye Zirou to be so calm and couldn't help but frowning.

"You are not qualified to know who my master is."

Ye Zirou's eyes became even colder. She slowly squatted down, reached out and grabbed the thief's collar, pulled him closer, her voice low and threatening.

"You'd better tell the truth, otherwise I have a hundred ways to make you live a life worse than death."

"Go check it yourself if you have the guts!" The thief gritted his teeth and glared back at her angrily.

Ye Zirou snorted coldly, pushed him away without any hesitation, and then sat back in her chair gracefully.

She didn't expect that the thief was so arrogant. She couldn't help but sigh that she had underestimated this man.

He never expected that the master behind him would train his subordinates to be so loyal and obedient.

She gritted her teeth and said, "It seems that if I don't use some ruthless means, you will definitely not tell the truth!"

The thief widened his eyes and asked vigilantly: "What do you want to do?"

Ye Zirou raised the corner of her mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile.

"You'll find out soon enough."

After saying that, she pulled out a syringe from her sleeve, gently pushed it upwards to eject a little of the liquid inside, and then slowly approached the thief.

The thief stared at the syringe in Ye Zirou's hand in horror, his body unable to move at all, but he kept uttering cruel words.

"Don't come over here, please, don't come over here... My master will never let you go!"

However, Ye Zirou ignored his pleas for mercy and stabbed the thief in the back of his neck with the syringe without hesitation.

The thief suddenly felt a sharp pain, but he did not notice anything unusual. Instead, he smiled triumphantly.

"Humph, I thought you were so powerful, but it turns out you're just this good!"

"Really? You'll know soon." Ye Zirou looked at him calmly.

Mo Tianyu asked curiously: "Rou'er, what did you stab into his body?"

Ye Zirou replied calmly, "Tell the truth, water."

Mo Tianyu frowned and asked, "Tell the truth? What do you mean?"

The thief was also shocked when he heard it, and thought to himself: [What the hell is this? ]

He had never heard of the existence of such a magical liquid.

After thinking about it more carefully, he felt that it was unlikely and was afraid that Ye Zirou was just trying to scare him on purpose.

Ye Zirou explained, "This is a special liquid that we invented. Once it is injected into a person's body, the person will be obedient and answer whatever you ask."

Mo Tianyu opened his mouth in surprise and said in disbelief: "There is such a thing?"

Ye Zirou nodded in response.

"Well, we have many ways of using torture to extract confessions, but we developed this liquid in order to extract intelligence from the enemy more efficiently and conveniently."

Ye Zirou felt that the time was almost up. She looked at the thief, only to see that his eyes had become empty and dull, completely losing their previous viciousness.

"The medicine has started to take effect. You can start asking questions now." Ye Zirou turned and said to Mo Tianyu.

Mo Tianyu stared at the person in front of him and asked in a serious tone: "Who are you?"

The man looked at Mo Tianyu with a blank look in his eyes, and then answered mechanically: "I am a secret guard of Xiaoyao Pavilion."

Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou looked at each other, and both saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

"Xiaoyao Pavilion?" Mo Tianyu repeated the name in a low voice. He had never heard of this organization.

"Who is your leader? Why do you want to assassinate me?" Mo Tianyu continued to ask.

"Xiaoyao Pavilion is a mysterious organization in the martial arts world. No one knows the true identity of the Pavilion Master. The Pavilion Master ordered Mo Tianyu to die on the way to exile. As for why, no one ever asks. They just follow their leader's orders." The thief answered woodenly.

Mo Tianyu's face became increasingly gloomy. He always felt that Xiaoyao Pavilion was not simple. It seemed that he had to pay more attention to it in the future.

"Where is Xiaoyao Pavilion?" Ye Zirou continued to ask.

Before the man could answer.

A strange noise came from the thief's throat, and then he suddenly foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground, twitching.

"What's wrong with him?" Mo Tianyu exclaimed.

Ye Zirou hurried forward to check. After a moment, she said solemnly, "He committed suicide by taking poison."

"How could this happen?" Mo Tianyu looked at the dead thief with a gloomy face.

"Maybe his willpower is too strong," Ye Zirou said in a low voice, with a hint of complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

"I didn't expect that the secret guards trained by Xiaoyao Pavilion would have such a firm determination."

"Tianyu, don't you know Xiaoyao Pavilion?"

Mo Tianyu shook his head slightly, frowning.

Ye Zirou sighed, a hint of helplessness flashing in her eyes.

"Why did another Xiaoyao Pavilion appear? They are coming for you too, Tianyu, how many people have you offended?"

Mo Tianyu fell into deep thought. His mind was in a mess and he had no idea why someone was so determined to take his life.

Silence returned to the room. Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou stood facing each other, both feeling very heavy.
