[Female Assassin vs. Emperor] A tragic romance of salvation and being saved, a tale of the farmer and the snake.
The moment Qi Zheng ascended the throne, he began plotting to kill his master.
Back then, he had challenged his master to a duel again and again, only to be knocked flat every time. His body would go limp, but he would still stubbornly insist, “I’ll beat you one day!”
His master had once led him through mountains of corpses and seas of blood, willingly entering the fray to help him exact his revenge.
Now that he had secured his place on the throne, he instead resented his master for having blood on both hands.
“Qi Zheng, I taught you every martial art you know. You want to kill me? Do you have what it takes?” Ling Qiu asked.
Qi Zheng said nothing, channeling his inner power as he drove his sword toward her.
At the moment between life and death, Ling Qiu let go of her strength and met his blade head-on.
When the sword pierced her chest, Qi Zheng’s eyes filled with shock and confusion.
Ling Qiu coughed softly and smiled.
“People become kind when they know they’re about to die. This way, at least you finally get to beat me once...”
Highly recommended!
