Translator: 549690339

Upon receiving the news that Lin Qingyi had returned to Pei Xuanjing’s residence with his men again, Qian Ning knew that the fish had taken the bait.

Yes, Lin Qingyi only received the news because he had intentionally had it leaked to him.

Otherwise, how could such important news be obtained by Lin Qingyi, a mere new captain? Wouldn’t that be too dismissive of the decades Qian Ning has spent in the Brocade Guards?

Since the fish was now in the net, Qian Ning no longer delayed.

He immediately gathered his forces to besiege Pei Xuanjing’s residence, prohibiting anyone from entering or leaving. He was prepared to catch both the man and his property in the act, and to accuse Jiang Bin of colluding with the Remnants of Shenxiao.

This time, Qian Ning was well -prepared. He had failed in several consecutive attempts previously.

Therefore, in order to completely kill Pei Xuanjing here, Qian Ning asked not only for a first-grade martial artist from the Brocade Guards to attend, but also spent a lot of money to invite a well -known first-grade expert from the world.

Just for Pei Xuanjing, he was prepared to use two first-grade experts, plus four second-grade experts. This clearly showed how much Qian Ning valued Pei Xuanjing’s abilities.

This time, you should be undoubtedly dead!

That’s what Qian Ning was thinking.

“Quick, quick, surround this place. Nobody is to enter without orders from Commander. Anyone who violates this order will be killed without question. Do you understand

“Yes!”

The Brocade Guards drove away the inhabitants around Pei Xuanjing’s residence and surrounded it tightly, blocking all entrances with strong bows and crossbows.

“This time, the target cannot escape!” King Chujiang, disguised as an ordinary Brocade Guard, stood next to Qian Ning, thinking.

“It seems we have made some miscalculations this time.” Pei Xuanjing perceived everything outside his residence and murmured.

Admittedly, even with a simulator that can predict certain future events, the future is truly unpredictable. The simulator can only predict one of the myriad future possibilities.

Each time Pei Xuanjing makes a breakthrough in his strength, it’s akin to the flapping of a butterfly’s wings causing a ripple effect, causing deviations and changes in his life’s simulation.

Like this time, there’s already a deviation from the original course from the moment the tour began.

After Pei Xuanjing killed Gong Xingqiu, the Vice Master of the Mire Sect, the emperor did not continue his tour, but came to Xuanfu instead of returning to Tiandu.

The subsequent assassinations by the Ghost Emperor of the Yin Realm and the Black and White Imps, and the fact that Qian Ning, who should have been in Tiandu reflecting on his mistakes, came to Xuanfu to kill him, were not shown in the life simulation.

Nevertheless, it may be due to his high level of skill or his ample strength that Pei Xuanjing is fully confident.

Even knowing that he is being besieged and the danger outside, he remained calm, without the slightest worry or fear.

Hum…

Pei Xuanjing grabbed with his five fingers, and the Shenxiao Sword in the brocade box made a crisp sound. The Shenxiao Sword rose into the air and fell into Pei Xuanjing’s hand.

“Brother Pei, hold on, things might not have come to this point yet.” Sensing the killing intent hidden in Pei Xuanjing, Lin Qingyi tried to stop him.

Lin Qingyi didn’t want to see the current situation. Whether it was for public or private reasons, he didn’t want Pei Xuanjing to act under these circumstances.

Although he had absolute confidence in Pei Xuanjing’s strength, as a member of the Brocade Guards, he knew better than many others how strong the Great Ming forces were.

Even if Pei Xuanjing could escape from Xuanfu today, what next?

Going forward, he would have no peaceful days. Instead, because his identity as a remnant of

Shenxiao was revealed, he would make more people wary and attract more experts to hunt him down.

Unless he can break out and kill until the rivers run red with blood, till the world is terrified and nobody dares to provoke him, there’s only death.

Pei Xuanjing chuckled: “Brother Lin, do you think there’s a chance for the situation to turn around at this point?”

“Perhaps… their evidence is insufficient?” Lin Qingyi said with sanguinity. However, halfway through, he himself ceased to believe it.

“Hehe, is evidence useful?” Pei Xuanjing laughed lightly, neither agreeing nor denying.

After all, the evidence is established on a basis of equality between the two parties.

If a rabbit uses evidence to accuse a tiger of the wolf’s bullying, the tiger might not only ignore the evidence, but it could also devour the rabbit opportunely.

At this point, only the acting emperor can stop this matter.

But regarding Pei Xuanjing, who is suspected to be a remnant of Shenxiao, and Qian Ning, the commander of the Brocade Guards in service of the Emperor, it is self-evident whose words the emperor would listen to.

In truth, Pei Xuanjing saw the current situation more clearly than Lin Qingyi.

The opposition had gone to great lengths to trace the origins of the Everlasting Observance and label

Pei Xuanjing a remnant of Shenxiao.

Therefore, regardless of what is said, this crime has been proven.

Yes, if it’S right, it’S right. If it’S wrong, it’S still right!

That Jiang Bin and Lin Qingyi could merely hear this news and immediately have Lin Qingyi inform him to leave, proves the sensitivity of the remnants of Shenxiao. They didn’t have much time to consider its authenticity.

This is substantial proof of the attitude of the royal family, even the entire imperial court of Great Ming, towards this matter.

If it were anyone else, there may be some hope. After all, not too long ago, Pei Xuanjing had performed a royal rescue and gained the favor of the emperor.

But from the history Pei Xuanjing learned in his past life, he remembers a saying: Throughout history, no one is more heartless than the emperor.

Whether it’s just one act of rescue or the emperor’s confidant who shares the life-and-death struggles of the emperor, if they threaten the power of the emperor, the only path they have is death.

“Brother Pei…” Lin Qingyi’s face was bitter, unsure of what to say.

Pei Xuanjing smiled and said, “Brother Lin, the situation is dangerous right now. I’m too preoccupied to look out for you. I can only fight to the death. You should take the opportunity to leave!”

“By the way, if you get a chance, please take care of Pang Hong.” Pei Xuanjing added.

In the past, he had no choice. Because his strength was weak, he had to rely on some people and use some people’s power, like when he sought the help of Gu Ji in Anping Prefecture.

But now, not to mention Pei Xuanjing’s strength is now at one of the peaks of Great Ming, he is facing a high-ranking commander of the Brocade Guards, and even the emperor of Great Ming behind him.

Therefore, now that Qian Ning and the Brocade Guards have surrounded Pei Xuanjing, the truth of the evidence is not that important anymore.

At least Pei Xuanjing doesn’t have a chance to justify himself anymore. The only thing he can do is either surrender and leave his life and death in the hands of others, or fight to the death, creating a bloody path and surviving on the strength alone.

Hence, Pei Xuanjing can only rely on himself now. He isn’t foolish enough to willingly surrender, nor is he willing to leave his life and death in the hands of others again..
