Chapter 65 - 54 Global Observer
Life is like a play, but while a play may have reruns, once a person makes a mistake, it is difficult to have a redo.
Left Hundred Households of the Divine Strategy Camp, a coarse Martial Artist who eats the emperor’s grain but whose monthly salary is not even as much as the doorman of Book Phoenix Pavilion, has become an insurmountable obstacle for Qin Dengming.
Qin Dengming once sent people to investigate the guards around the Crown Prince. Apart from the elderly eunuch with unknown strength, there should have been no sign of Zuo Zixiong. That Martial Artist purely encountered the Crown Prince’s carriage on the way back to the capital and volunteered to escort the Crown Prince back to the city.
How much do you earn a month, to be so ambitious?
The last scene of Qin Dengming’s life was frozen in Book Phoenix Pavilion.
That day, Zuo Zixiong faced White Guardian head-on with one sword, and then used his dual-blade technique—the Hundred-Slit Slash—against him.
Zuo Zixiong was already a Meridian Realm expert in martial arts, and the Hundred-Slit Slash was his ultimate skill. If it weren’t for the Crown Prince’s command to not damage the Mingtiao Zither, Zuo Zixiong wouldn’t have endured so long without using his best technique.
Qin Dengming felt a sudden danger, instinctively sensing something wrong. Before he could turn his head, he used the Piling Technique to switch places with the Puppet that was always by his side.
But he forgot that the Piling Technique has a limitation on transferring damage. Once the received injury exceeds the limit, the caster must bear all the excess damage.
Zuo Zixiong’s Hundred-Slit Slash was like the omnipresent fierce wind of the bitter cold land, each slash cutting into Qin Dengming.
