Ying Wei turned around and looked at the short sword in the Startling Salamander's hand. It was the short sword that he had just handed to her.
At that moment, he seemed to have regained his senses before his death, and extremely complicated colors flashed in his eyes.
However, the Startling Salamander realized that it had understood the complicated thoughts in Ying Wei's eyes before he died.
Confusion, confusion, realization, pain, sadness, disappointment…
All kinds of emotions crossed in his eyes at that moment, until finally, a hint of helplessness appeared in his bright eyes. Accompanied by a bitter smile, the light in his eyes gradually dissipated.
At that moment, Startling Salamander's hand trembled, and her heart wavered.
The images of him living with Ying Wei over the past month flashed through his mind.
There was the lingering pain of the first night with him in the house, the gentle words of love he whispered in her ear, the joy of lying in his arms and listening to him play the zither quietly, and the seriousness of being asked to read and write by him with a straight face.
All of this eventually turned into a corpse in front of him.
Startling Salamander had to admit that the time she spent by Ying Wei's side for more than a month was the most relaxing and happiest time of her life.
He didn't have to go through cruel training, he didn't have to kill as soon as he opened his eyes, he didn't have to rush through the mountains every moment, and he didn't have to live a life of eating and sleeping in the open.
He would prepare delicacies from an inn for himself, pour her fine wine from the palace of Qin State, accompany her to walk by the lake in the small Saint Manor, quietly listen to the wind, and at any time and anywhere, deeply entangle with her.
However, that was just a dream in the end. Now, he was about to wake up from the dream. The King of the State of Qin, Chang 'an, was just a target of his assassination.
Now, as a first-class assassin of the Network, the Startling Salamander had killed the target. She would receive the next mission and assassinate the next target.
However, the Startling Salamander felt its pulse tremble. It was as if the child in its stomach was accusing her of killing its father.
As an assassin, Startling Salamander thought that she would not be afraid. However, at this moment, she inexplicably felt a fear that suppressed her heart and made her unable to breathe.
The startled salamander suddenly made up her mind. She wanted to give birth to this child and leave behind a bloodline for him. It was for him and for the innocent child.
Just as this thought rose in his mind, the Startling Salamander suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Because Ying Wei's 'corpse' in front of her did not fall. He was still standing there, looking at her with an empty gaze, as if he was accusing her of being cruel.
Under the Startling Salamander's gaze, Ying Wei's 'corpse' started to melt like wax.
His facial features became distorted, and his body turned into a pile of soft wax mud. Around him, the heart-palpitating cries of a baby could be heard.
The Startling Salamander lowered her head abruptly. She saw her abdomen begin to bulge rapidly, as if ten months of pregnancy had been completed in just a few seconds.
Then, from the bulging belly, a baby's arm broke out, followed by the baby's head and body climbing out bit by bit.
The baby who had crawled out of the Startling Salamander's stomach suddenly raised her head. She had no facial features, and her eyes were black and hollow. Her mouth was filled with sharp teeth, and she let out a curse-like cry that stung the Startling Salamander's eardrums.
Seeing this scene, the Startling Salamander did not panic. As a first-class assassin, she had seen too many strange people and killed too many mutants. This situation would not make her panic.
" Illusion or…poison?"
This thought immediately appeared in the mind of the Startling Salamander. If it was an illusion, it shouldn't be.
It was true that there was a strange spell called 'Fire Charm' in the Hundred Yue Land that could use flames to make people hallucinate.
However, as a Heaven-grade first-class assassin, the Startling Salamander had a strong spiritual cultivation base. According to the martial arts realm set by Ying Wei, the Startling Salamander's strength had already reached the Heavenly Gate, which was a realm that only a few people in the various sects could reach.
The so-called heavenly gate was to practice one's Dao to the extreme and open the heavenly gate. The Dao of the Startling Salamander was undoubtedly the Dao of slaughter. She had indeed practiced her Dao to the extreme.
However, this wasn't a great Dao after all. If he was just an assassin, the Startling Salamander's martial arts realm could only reach this level. It was impossible for him to achieve the integration of Heaven and man like Xun Zi.
But no matter what, in the pugilistic world, the Startling Salamander was still a top expert. At the very least, if it was a one-on-one battle at this time, no one could be her opponent.
In other words, the frightening salamander's spiritual cultivation base was extremely strong, and as an assassin, it was even more extreme. The illusion definitely could not have such a huge impact on her.
Since it was not an illusion, it was poison!
The name of a certain poison flashed across the Startling Salamander's mind. She cut it off immediately and raised the short sword that Ying Wei had given her with her right hand, stabbing it into her left palm!
The sharp blade pierced through her delicate palm, and the intense pain made the salamander's eyes instantly clear.
She was still in the carriage, but Ying Wei was nowhere to be seen. There was only the open door.
The Startling Salamander slapped with his hand, and a powerful internal force shook the bottom of the chariot, revealing the items underneath.
It was a sword, a slender and beautiful sword. It was one of the eight swords of Yue Ba, the Startling Salamander!
The Startling Salamander instantly pulled out the Startling Salamander Sword and shuttled out of the carriage like a phantom. At the same time, she threw off her traditional clothes and dress and changed into her killer uniform.
When the Startling Salamander jumped out of the carriage, he saw Ying Wei standing outside the carriage, surrounded by nearly a hundred assassins from the Network.
Around Ying Wei were the corpses of the guards and the assassins from the net.
Standing in the middle of the corpses, this Lord Chang 'an of the State of Qin still had a calm expression on his face, and he was holding a wine pot in his hand.
Ying Wei's thumb moved on the wine pot, as if he was turning on a switch.
With just a glance, the Startling Salamander knew that there was a mechanism in the wine pot. Ying Wei had separated the normal wine from the poisonous wine. He had drunk the normal wine himself, but he had fed her the poisonous wine!
"Dream Devouring Spider!"
Startling Salamander held the Yue Ba Sword and pointed it at Ying Wei as she spoke in her cold voice.
She had already guessed what the poison was, which was why she was temporarily freed from the shackles of the poison. It was the secret of the network,'Dream Devouring Spider!'
But why did Ying Wei have the poison from the Network? If it wasn't for the Network assassins surrounding him, Startling Salamander would have even suspected that the Network had suddenly changed its target and was here to kill him.
Dream Devouring Spider was similar to a knockout powder. This poison did not need an antidote and would disappear over time. The most terrifying thing about this poison was its concealment. It was truly colorless and odorless.
Even the Startling Salamander did not realize that it had been poisoned.
During the poison phase, the poisoned person would occasionally fall into hallucinations. Even if the Salamander had used self-harm to temporarily wake herself up, she would still fall into hallucinations from time to time before the poison disappeared.
After being hit by Dream Devouring Spider, it could be said that it would be good if she could only use 50 - 60% of her strength. Her martial arts had already been greatly reduced.
