I arranged a marriage for you, not made you invincible under a disguise.

When Shen Sixi rushed into the Angel Palace with Xiaohua, Zang Shiqi was not inside; he was being punished.

If he hadn't told Xiaohua that the Angel Palace was going to kill Shen Sixi, Xiaohua wouldn't have risked her life to escape from the Angel Palace.

The elders of the Angel Temple couldn't do anything to Xiao Hua, but they could easily control Zang Shiqi.

Zang Shiqi's skill level is only below average among the many assassins in the Angel Temple. When Xiao Hua was being punished, she could escape but didn't. However, when it was Zang Shiqi's turn, he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

Later, the Palace Master sent two-thirds of his assassins to Southeast Asia to hunt down Xiao Hua and Shen Sixi, which greatly reduced the number of people in the Palace, giving Zang Shiqi a chance to escape.

Most of the assassins in the Angel Temple are orphans, but Zang Shiqi is not. Zang Shiqi has parents and his family is in Southeast Asia.

He didn't dare go home immediately, fearing it would implicate his family, so he came to find Xiaohua.

Upon arriving here, he was discovered by a former companion.

Fortunately, this friend was very loyal. Not only did he not spread the word, but he also covered for him. When he learned that Xiaohua was looking for him, he told him that Xiaohua had entered Huang Lao's herbal garden.

Later, it was this same companion who told him that the temple master was coming soon.

At first, when the assassins saw Shen Sixi and Xiaohua enter the herb garden, they all thought they would definitely die at the hands of Elder Huang.

They waited and waited, but received no news of their deaths. Instead, they saw Xiaohua emerge from the herb garden unharmed. Soon after, she returned to the herb garden with two women, and shortly there, she left with the same two women again...

The assassins were stunned. Old Huang hadn't killed them?

Not only did they not kill them, but they also allowed Xiaohua to freely enter and leave the herb garden?

Wasn't Elder Huang the one who hated the Temple of Angels the most?

The assassins were dumbfounded. They looked at each other, and then tremblingly reported the current situation to the Lord of the Palace.

Despite their attempts to shirk responsibility, the temple master flew into a rage, berated them, and then decided to personally come and arrest them.

The assassins looked worried, fearing punishment from the temple master.

Zang Shiqi was even more worried, fearing that Xiao Hua and Shen Sixi would be harmed by the Palace Master.

He steeled his resolve and risked his life to enter Old Huang's herb garden.

Just to give them a heads-up and prepare them mentally.

After hearing Zang Shiqi's words, Huang Lao's expression softened: "I didn't expect that not all of you in the Temple of Angels are trash."

Xiao Hua took two steps forward, picked up Zang Shiqi who was lying on the ground, and patted him on the shoulder: "Thank you."

Zang Shiqi also had a wound on his shoulder, which made him grimace as Xiao Hua patted him.

Shen Sixi glanced at Zang Shiqi a few more times, her eyes probing.

Old Huang: "Hey, Xiaohua, are you alright?"

Xiaohua was startled, only then realizing that the intense throbbing pain had disappeared sometime earlier.

He shook his head: "I'm fine."

Old Huang strode up to Xiao Hua and eagerly reached for her wrist.

A few seconds later, he exclaimed, "The toxins are gone! The antidote really worked!"

Shen Sixi did not show any surprise, as if she had expected this outcome.

Zang Shiqi asked anxiously, "What happened? What poison? Captain, have you been poisoned?"

Xiaohua didn't say much, she just nodded.

Old Huang: "You still dare to talk! Wasn't this all done by your Angelic Temple?! You don't know, do you? Your Angelic Temple poisoned every assassin!"

"Those two assassins your temple master sent over before were poisoned by your own people. It has nothing to do with me!"

Zang Shiqi was dumbfounded.

Zang Shiqi: "Is the rumor true? If we leave the Temple of Angels, we really will die!?"

"What should I do? I don't even have a girlfriend yet. I finally escaped from that awful place. I don't want to die!"

Zang Shiqi had a long face.

Shen Sixi calmly said, "Come with me, I have the antidote."

Zang Shiqi was taken aback. "Really?"

Shen Sixi: "I just gave Xiaohua the antidote, and there's some left. You can have the rest, since you informed us."

Zang Shiqi looked at Xiao Hua, and Xiao Hua nodded to him.

Only then did he follow Shen Sixi toward the medicine hut.

Like Xiaohua, Zang Shiqi also experienced a period of abdominal pain.

Zang Shiqi's endurance was not as good as Xiao Hua's. He was in so much pain that he rolled on the ground, and he was in a daze. He even said a few words of nonsense.

"Palace Master, Palace Master, I dare not do it again!"

"I was wrong, I know I was wrong!"

"Help! Help me!"

"Ahhhh!"

Old Huang looked at him, then at the composed Xiao Hua.

"The number one assassin is quite capable," Old Huang couldn't help but praise.

Shen Sixi replied matter-of-factly, "Of course."

Xiao Hua didn't react much to Huang Lao's praise.

Hearing Shen Sixi's words, she couldn't help but curl her lips into a smile.

Although the process was arduous, the result was good.

Old Huang also checked Zang Shiqi's pulse and cast an admiring glance at Shen Sixi.

Zang Shiqi quickly asked, "How am I, Elder Huang?"

Old Huang: "You're lucky."

Zang Shiqi was very excited and thanked everyone in turn.

"Great! Great! I'm finally free! I've earned enough money over the years. I can go back, buy a few houses, get married, have kids, find a decent job, and never have to live in fear again!"

Xiao Hua was also happy for Zang Shiqi.

Just as the atmosphere was harmonious, Zang Shiqi froze, remembering the imminent crisis.

Zang Shiqi frowned again: "The Palace Master is coming soon. It's already difficult to deal with just one Palace Master, let alone with so many assassins. What are we going to do?"

Zang Shiqi: "Let's run away quickly, we can't die here, can we?"

Old Huang scoffed: "Escape? Let's see if he dares to trespass into my garden!"

Shen Sixi was not afraid at all; on the contrary, she secretly looked forward to it: "I'll wait for him here."

Shen Sixi was preparing to capture the Palace Master alive and poison him.

The arrival of the Palace Master actually suited her wishes, saving her the trouble of trying to get closer to him.

Zang Shiqi, puzzled, asked Shen Sixi, "Do you have a plan?"

Shen Sixi glanced at him: "Not for now."

Zang Shiqi: "Then why don't you run!"

Shen Sixi calmly replied, "I won't run."

Old Huang and Xiao Hua also remembered her plan and thought that the fact that the Palace Master came to capture her might actually be good news for her.

Zang Shiqi looked at this person and that person, "You must have a plan, tell me, and I will fully cooperate."

He added, "I'm quite uneasy about just sitting here and waiting for them to attack."

Neither Xiaohua nor Old Huang said anything.

Old Huang looked at Shen Sixi strangely, wondering why she didn't tell Zang Shiqi about her plan.

She gave the antidote to Zang Shiqi, which shows that she trusts him.

Zang Shiqi was friends with Xiao Hua and risked his life to come in and deliver a message, which brought a clue.

Is it because they're afraid of losing face if the plan fails?

Old Huang was full of doubts.

Shen Sixi didn't explain it to him, but simply said to Zang Shiqi, "If you're not at ease, then run away."

Zang Shiqi: "That won't do! I'll stand with the captain through thick and thin!"

Shen Sixi: "Whatever you say."

She turned and walked into the medicine hut.

Old Huang also followed into the medicine hut.

He knew that Shen Sixi was preparing to develop a new antidote immediately, and planned to observe from the sidelines and help Shen Sixi out.

Zang Shiqi asked Xiao Hua in a low voice, "Captain, where did they go?"

Xiaohua shook her head, indicating that he shouldn't ask any more questions.

Then, he dutifully stood outside and kept an eye on his surroundings.
