C4 Assassination

"Mastering!"

Liu Jin's sharp voice followed, and Zhu Houzhao went straight to the Qian Qing palace. With a dragon and tiger stride, a majestic aura spread out from him, shocking everyone behind him once again.

Moments later, Zhu Houzhao entered the palace and saw a dozen golden dining plates on the table. In order to keep them warm, they were also covered with gold plates.

Shua shua shua …

After Zhu Houzhao sat down, the maids on both sides of the table raised their lids in unison, and the eighteen exquisite dishes entered his eyes.

Tiger skin meat, chicken breast, pea yellow, lotus seed, bear paw, pearl jadeite white jade soup …

Seeing the exquisite palace dishes, Zhu Houzhao's appetite was also boosted.

The tiger's skin was glossy, fat, but not greasy...

Fresh-white, soft, light and refreshing...

"..."

As the palace maid carried the small plate and placed it into Zhu Houzhao's mouth, Zhu Houzhao started to eat. In his previous life, he had never eaten such an exquisite dish and most importantly, he had never been dressed up like this before.

Name: Long Xiu

Occupation: Assassin

Cultivation Stage: Superlative Expert

Affiliation: Luo Net

"..."

"Eh?" After eating for a while, Zhu Houzhao noticed a palace maid with a Adam's apple. He was a little confused. After carefully inspecting the dish, he received a message from the system regarding the palace maid.

"System, isn't the Dragon Cultivator from Qin Shi and Moon World? How did he come to this world?" Zhu Houzhao swiftly communicated with the system in his mind and asked.

"Ding! Due to the host entering, this world is completely different from the original world. Historical, wild, characters from movies and TV dramas can all appear." The System explained coldly.

"Liu Jin, who is the imperial food overseer?" Zhu Houzhao disconnected from the system and asked calmly.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Cao Jiaxiang is in charge of the Shang Cuisine Prison!" Liu Jin didn't know why Zhu Houzhao asked such a question, but she quickly replied anyway.

"Then what should we do if you say that someone is trying to do us harm by impersonating as a palace maid?" Zhu Houzhao looked at Long Xiu with a somewhat playful expression as he slowly spoke.

"He deserves to die!" Liu Jin followed Zhu Houzhao's gaze and saw that there was something wrong with the palace maid's voice. Her voice was ice-cold, as if she had come from hell.

Boom!

The clothing of the female disciple from the Dragon Palace was torn to shreds. The human skin mask on her face flew out, revealing her black clothing. Her eyes were vicious and her face was pale. When Zhu Houzhao asked Liu Jin a question, he already felt that something was wrong.

Now that he had been exposed, he might as well reveal his true face.

"Ah!

The other palace maids were shocked and screamed one after another. The scene immediately turned into a mess. Only three people did not move and were not affected. They were Zhu Houzhao, Liu Jin and Long Xiu.

"How did you find me?" At the moment, he was in no hurry to attack. It could be said that his disguise was flawless, but now that Zhu Houzhao had discovered it, the barrier in his heart was difficult to overcome.

As for the assassination mission, he was confident that he could kill Zhu Houzhao before the imperial guards arrived.

"He is taller than an ordinary palace maid, his beard is incomplete, and there is also his adam's apple. Do you take me for a blind person?" Zhu Houzhao had a cold look in his eyes as he said sarcastically.

"Hmph. Even if you have the ability, you won't be able to escape death today." Long Xiu descended, thrusting his long sword towards Zhu Hou.

"Ha!"

At this moment, Zhu Houguo didn't move at all. Liu Jin, who was beside him, gave a loud roar and threw a punch. The punch carried a cold air as it flew straight towards Long Xiu.

Boom!

The two collided with force, scattering in all directions. Both of them retreated at the same time.

"I didn't expect Liu Jin to be an expert!" Long Xiu frowned and said with astonishment.

"An expert isn't considered strong, but it's enough to kill you!" Liu Jin said coldly. I

Facing today's situation, Liu Jin had to protect Zhu Houzhao well. If anything happened to Zhu Houzhao, no one would be able to save him even if he was in control of the factory.

"Long Xiu, if you agree to serve me, I will pardon you today." Zhu Houzhao said slowly. He didn't have any trusted aides at the moment, and recruiting a few powerful people was the top priority.

"In your dreams!" Long Xiu directly refused.

"Since that's the case, then die!" Zhu Houzhao said coldly.

"Shoo! Shoo! Shoo!"

Long Xiu didn't waste any time as he poured his inner strength into his thin sword. Strands of inner strength shot out toward Zhu Hou.

"Boom boom!"

Liu Jin leaped forward and arrived in front of Zhu Houzhao. She threw out a few punches in a row to dissolve Long Xiu's attack.

Crash! *

The tables and chairs in the room could not withstand the force and began to fall apart.

Crack crack crack.

At this moment, the sound of anxious footsteps came from outside the palace. The fight had attracted the patrolling imperial guards.

At the same time, Long Xiu knew that even if he could kill Zhu Houzhao, he would not be able to escape death. With him being surrounded in the palace, there was no hope of survival.

"Whiz!"

Thinking of this, Long Xiu stomped his feet and his body turned into a black shadow, pouncing towards Zhu Houzhao.

Long Xiu was fast, but Liu Jin wasn't slow either. She moved and the two of them faced each other.

Boom!

The two of them struck out simultaneously, striking each other. As their inner energy gushed out, the entire room seemed to be windy. Their robes exploded, and their hair flew into the air.

At the moment, Zhu Houzhao was observing with cold eyes. When he saw that Long Xiu and Liu Jin were in a stalemate, he slowly picked up the chopsticks on the ground.

Long Xiu noticed Zhu Houzhao's actions, but knew that Zhu Houzhao didn't know martial arts, so he didn't think much of it. Liu Jin, on the other hand, had a drastic change in expression.

Slowly, Liu Jin and Long Xiu's forehead were covered in sweat.

"Liu Jin, get up!"

Seeing that Liu Jin and Long Xiu's inner strength were lacking, Zhu Houzhao shouted and quickly threw out his right hand. His chopsticks were as fast as lightning and made a sound as they broke through the air.

Liu Jin had her back facing him, but when she heard the sound, her scalp went numb. Without thinking too much, she directly gave up on Long Xiu and dodged to the side.

"Pfft!"

A few chopsticks flew over. Long Xiu didn't have the time to dodge them at the moment. He pressed his palms flat, hoping to resist Zhu Houzhao's attack.

But it was too late.

Although he was weaker than the first few chopsticks, a flash of black lightning came over like a shadow just as he let out a sigh of relief.

The chopsticks directly flew past Long Xiu's hands and shot out from his neck.

"Heh heh..."

Long Xiu's eyes were as wide as copper bells. His face was filled with disbelief as he let out a "hehe" sound. He wanted to say something, but couldn't get it out.

"Plop!"

Long Xiu fell to the ground on his back and looked up at the ceiling. He was dead beyond dead.

Then came another splash.

Zhu Houzhao turned around and saw Liu Jin kneeling down.

"Your servant failed to protect you, Your Majesty. Your majesty, please punish me!" As Liu Jin spoke, she kowtowed on the hard green brick, causing the sound of metal hitting metal to resound incessantly.
