Duan Zhengchun transmigrates to Yin Zhiping

Chapter 168 The prey that comes to your door

"Come out."

Duan Zhengchun stopped and turned to look in the direction from which the sound came, his eyes revealing a hint of coldness.

As the words fell, a figure slowly emerged from the corner, looking at Duan Zhengchun with some nervousness.

It's Guo Fu.

Duan Zhengchun frowned slightly, walked straight up to Guo Fu, and asked in confusion, "What are you doing here so late? When did you arrive?"

Guo Fu swallowed nervously and whispered, "Ah? I just... I just arrived... and happened to be passing by..."

Although she said that, her face was already flushed.

Duan Zhengchun glanced at his room, instantly understanding, and smiled wryly, saying, "You heard everything?"

Guo Fu was startled and hurriedly waved her hands, saying, "No... I really just passed by here..."

Duan Zhengchun suddenly stretched out a hand and braced it against the wall, then stared intently into Guo Fu's constantly evasive eyes, and said softly, "You like me?"

Guo Fu was stunned again, looking completely bewildered. Just as she was about to turn around and run away, Duan Zhengchun pulled her into his arms. Then, Duan Zhengchun gently lifted his finger and lifted Guo Fu's chin.

The usually willful and capricious Guo Fu had lost all her sharpness at this moment, leaving only an uncontrollable tension.

Duan Zhengchun smiled and took action immediately.

"Uncle Yin, no... someone will see us..."

Duan Zhengchun ignored him, not caring that they were still outdoors.

"Uncle Yin..."

"Shh...don't worry, it's so late, no one will be around. Just keep your voice down..."

Not long after, Wanyan Ping, who had been fast asleep, was suddenly awakened by a noise. She sat up with a puzzled look on her face and then discovered that Duan Zhengchun had disappeared from her side.

But the sound is still there!

Wanyan Ping hesitated for a moment, then slowly got up and quietly went to the door. She reached out and poked a small hole in the window, squinting as she looked outside.

She then spotted Duan Zhengchun and Guo Fu on the grass outside and froze on the spot.

To her surprise, although she saw everything clearly, she didn't blame him at all. Instead, she felt excited and her face flushed involuntarily.

After a long while, Duan Zhengchun saw the satisfied Guo Fu off from the backyard. He also managed to find out the location of the kitchen from Guo Fu before slowly leaving, clutching his hungry stomach.

Standing by the window, Wanyan Ping was deflated. She slumped back onto the bed and fell asleep again, as if nothing had happened.

...

Three days later.

Guo Jing, who was preparing for the martial arts tournament, suddenly received a secret letter from Huai'an, and then left Xiangyang with the Wu brothers.

Upon hearing this, the group of heroes who remained at the Beggars' Sect headquarters began to speculate that the Mongol army might have already launched an attack, and a major battle was likely imminent.

Meanwhile, Duan Zhengchun had already moved away from the Beggars' Sect headquarters with Wanyan Ping and settled in an inn in the city, since there were too many people and too many eyes and ears there, making it inconvenient to do things there.

However, he already knew about Guo Jing's departure from Xiangyang for Huai'an, and he wasn't too worried, because the Qingyi Guards would send the latest news about Huai'an to Xiangyang every day.

He had complete control over the Mongol army's every move.

The next morning, Wanyan Ping slowly walked into the room carrying a bowl of steaming soup, and then had Duan Zhengchun, who was lying in bed and refused to get up, dragged out of bed.

As he ate the soup in his bowl, Duan Zhengchun couldn't help but nod approvingly. He wondered what good fortune he had accumulated in his past life, because all the women around him seemed to possess excellent culinary skills, and every dish they made was delicious.

"You must be exhausted again last night."

Wanyan Ping rested her chin on her hands and suddenly asked a question out of the blue.

Duan Zhengchun paused for a moment, then casually laughed and said, "I'm not tired at all, as long as you're happy."

Wanyan Ping pursed her lips and said softly, "Isn't Miss Guo here again? Can you handle two people by yourself?"

Upon hearing this, Duan Zhengchun was stunned, his expression stiffening.

In fact, he had long known that Wanyan Ping already knew about his affair with Guo Fu, but this was the first time Wanyan Ping had brought it up to his face.

Is the sound too loud?

To make it easier for him to meet Guo Fu, he also booked a guest room in the inn, which was located at the corner of the corridor.

"It's okay, don't be nervous, I was just asking casually."

Looking at Duan Zhengchun, who was somewhat speechless, Wanyan Ping couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle triumphantly.

Seeing that Wanyan Ping wasn't there to interrogate him, Duan Zhengchun breathed a sigh of relief and changed the subject, saying, "This soup is really good! I like it!"

Wanyan Ping smiled, pursed her lips, and asked no more questions. She got up and went to the bedside to clean up the mess.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Duan Zhengchun frowned slightly, got up and walked towards the door. It was a code!

As the door opened, a woman in green appeared in the doorway and immediately bowed respectfully to Duan Zhengchun.

"What's the matter?"

Duan Zhengchun frowned slightly and asked directly.

"Sect Master, we received news last night that there are quite a few Mongol spies infiltrated Xiangyang City. I have already led my men to deal with some of them."

"However, several still managed to escape. This is all due to the incompetence of my subordinates. I beg the sect leader to punish them!"

The woman in green looked nervous and cautiously reported the news.

"They were just a few Mongolian dogs; they escaped, so be it."

Duan Zhengchun waved his hand, not taking it too seriously.

With war imminent between the two countries, the fact that the Mongol Tartars sent people to the border town to gather information was something he had long anticipated.

"But Chief Huang seems to have also discovered the group of spies, and led his men out of the city after dawn."

The woman in green then added another sentence.

"How long have you been walking?!"

Upon hearing this, Duan Zhengchun's expression changed drastically, and he asked in a deep voice.

"About... an incense stick's time..."

The woman in green answered nervously, having already noticed the change in Duan Zhengchun's expression.

"Keep giving the orders: keep a close watch on Xiangyang City. If any more Mongol spies are discovered to have infiltrated, kill them without mercy!"

"Ping'er, you stay at the inn. I have some business to attend to outside the city!"

Duan Zhengchun gave a few instructions, then quickly dressed, carried the sword box on his back, left the inn, and rode his white horse straight to the North Gate.

Wanyan Ping hurried out of the room, but it was too late to follow.

...

Fifty li outside Xiangyang City.

Below a cliff, Huang Rong clutched her stomach, looking somewhat disheveled as she gazed at the five masked enemies in black surrounding her, her expression grave.

There were already more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground, some of them enemies, and others of the Beggars' Sect who had come with her.

The incident happened so suddenly that she didn't have time to return to the Beggars' Sect headquarters to look for people when she left the city. She only took some ordinary disciples and chased after them all the way out of Xiangyang City.

But after catching up to this place, she discovered that there were actually some experts hidden among these spies, and they seemed to be people from the martial arts world.

Now she was surrounded in this desolate place, and with two poisoned darts already in her chest, her chances of survival seemed slim.

"Who would have thought that the renowned Beggar Clan leader, Huang Yaoshi's only daughter, would die at our hands today!"

"I wonder if Guo Jing, after returning to Xiangyang and hearing the news of your death, will still dare to be an enemy of the Great Mongol Empire!"

One of them sneered, looking disdainfully at Huang Rong, who was already at her last gasp, and mocked her arrogantly.

"What kind of hero is it to use a sneak attack to harm someone?!"

Even though I am seriously injured, I will never let you leave easily!

Huang Rong glared angrily at the person who had spoken, and shouted a stern rebuke.

"Hmph, you're about to die and you're still so sharp-tongued. Well then, I'll grant your wish!"

The man snorted coldly, then waved his hand and gave the final order.

Immediately afterwards, the five enemies attacked again, rushing towards Huang Rong at lightning speed.

With one hand clutching her stomach and the other holding her dog-beating stick, Huang Rong once again engaged in battle with the enemy!

But before long, she became increasingly unable to continue, her steps became unsteady, and she was almost seriously injured by enemy weapons several times!

Just as she was fighting against the four people in front of her, she suddenly felt a sharp chill behind her, and a steel knife was slashing towards her back!

She wanted to hide, but faced with the enemy charging at her head, she was simply unable to spare any attention!

Just at this critical moment, a fierce horse neighing suddenly rang out, followed by a ghostly figure that flashed by like lightning and arrived in front of them in the blink of an eye!
