The Prime Minister's Darling novel Chapter 1420

Chapter 1420: 690 Assassinate Nangong Li! (Double Update)_4

Gu Jiao looked at the small eunuch and the other, larger eunuch, "Only one of the three of us can live; which of you two will speak?"

"I’ll talk! I’ll talk!"

"I’ll talk!"

The two spoke in unison.

"I’ll speak first!" Relying on his younger age and quicker reaction, the small eunuch opened his mouth and blurted out, "General Nangong is in..."

Whoosh!

A hidden weapon shot through the air, its sound extremely sharp and its speed remarkably fast, aimed directly at Gu Jiao’s neck.

Gu Jiao’s ears twitched, and with a flip of her fingertips, she shot out a Begonia Needle!

The Begonia Needle struck the hidden weapon, knocking it onto a tree branch not far away.

"It turns out to be a pebble."

Gu Jiao calmly stepped aside and turned around, her gaze coldly fixed on the direction from which the hidden weapon had come.

Unsurprisingly, she saw Nangong Li, who had used lightness skills to fly swiftly toward her.

Nangong Li had lost an arm, leaving the right sleeve of his garment empty; however, even with his left hand, the blow he had just attempted would not have been pleasant for Gu Jiao if it had connected.

Gu Jiao faced the renowned general of Dayan Country, her aura not the least bit inferior.

The two stood ten feet apart, and she walked forward a few steps without fear, speaking with a smile that was not quite a smile, "It’s been a long time, General Nangong."

Nangong Li’s eyes narrowed slightly, "You are not Xiao Liulang! Who are you!"

Gu Jiao had encountered Nangong Li twice, both times from the shadows without revealing herself.

Gu Jiao took another step towards him with her hands behind her back, "General Nangong has been investigating me, havent you guessed who I am?"

She used her own voice.

It was a woman!

Nangong Li’s pupils suddenly contracted: "You... You are Gu Jiao!"

Nangong Li was completely taken aback!

Nangong Li had investigated Xiao Hen and knew that he had faked his death to leave the Capital City, living incognito as Xiao Liulang before making his way back through the imperial examination. At that time, he had a girl from the countryside with him, named Gu Jiao. _{fɾēewebnσveℓ.com}

Kill him?

In the palace?

Where did she get the confidence that she could kill him?

Even if he had lost an arm, killing her would be as easy as crushing an ant!

However, there was indeed a risk of being discovered.

Taking this risk for Xiao Liulang was worth it, but it was really unnecessary for a girl who had assumed another’s identity.

There were footsteps coming from not far away.

Nangong Li sneered, "Girl, someone’s already coming to the side hall, don’t make me kill you."

"I know, so please, do me the favor of dying!"

After speaking, Gu Jiao toed the ground, leapt into the air, and with her "spear" in hand, the weapon surged toward Nangong Li like a roaring dragon!

As Nangong Li watched the familiar spear technique, he almost instantly widened his eyes in disbelief.

This was... the spear technique of the Xuanyuan Family!
