Chapter 125: Gui Ying
Standing up from his chair, Kai Mu rushed over to grab the torn cloth from the soldier’s hand and inspected it. Seeing the half-dried blood, Kai Mu clenched it in his fist.
Gritting his teeth, he shouted, "Find out who dared to kidnap our Military Advisor! If anything happens to him, I want all of you buried with him!"
Shocked by Kai Mu’s words, the generals immediately stood up and responded, "Yes, Supreme General!"
While the Yuezhi Tribe fell into panic searching for Kong Jixing, the man himself was calmly resting beneath a dead tree.
Squinting at the sun’s position, Kong Jixing muttered, "It’s already past one sichen. Kai Mu should have seen the traces I left behind."
After saying that, he smiled and slowly traced his jawline with his fingers. Two seconds later, he peeled off the skin of his face.
The moment he removed the human-skin mask that was as thin as a cicada’s wings, a very handsome young man’s face was revealed.
Holding the intact human-skin mask between his fingers, Kong Jixing touched his smooth skin and smiled. "It’s been years since I last took off this mask."
Looking at the human-skin mask, he sighed. "This was the last one I had. What a pity I can’t use it anymore."
With that, he tore the human-skin mask into pieces and let the wind carry them away. Watching the fragments drift off, he chuckled in satisfaction.
Opening his lips, he said in a deep, smooth voice, which was very different from his previous hoarse voice, "From now on, there is no Kong Jixing in this world. Only Gui Ying."
