Chapter 52 Assassination
"You, you slave, you are full of foul language. I, I will definitely kill you." Apple cursed helplessly.
"You know what, you two are quite a match. Neither of you is a good person." The man shook his head contemptuously.
Ding Yuan was speechless for a moment. Looking at this man who looked so similar to him, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Westminster looked at Ding Yuan's face coldly, and suddenly pulled out a knife as sharp as a lens from his waist. Ding Yuan was so scared that his face turned pale and his teeth were chattering.
"Ding Yuan, you were the one who ruined my plan in the Empty Coffin Temple, right? The old bald guy in the temple told me everything. Especially the story between you and Uncle Jiu is a bit long. Now you are still hiding it, do you think I can fool you?
Ding Yuan's face was filled with fear, but he kept his mouth shut, unwilling to reveal anything about what happened between him and Uncle Jiu.
"Yes, I like such a tough guy. It's a pity that you are a dog that bites its master." Westminster slapped Ding Yuan's face with the back of the knife, and saw that his cheeks were swollen.
"Master, I don't think he has any value at all, what's worse?" The man made a gesture of beheading.
Ximin laughed and said, "Drilling Rat, you are such a bitch. You said he looks similar to you, why are you willing to do that?"
It turns out that this man is Westminster's right-hand man, known as the Sky-Drilling Rat. As the name suggests, this rat can not only dig holes, but also has some "sky-drilling" skills. It is a good gun for Westminster to contact the outside world and played a vital role in the investigation of Bai Tian's disappearance. Most importantly, he obeys Westminster's orders and can be said to be loyal to him.
Hearing Ximin's scolding, Zuantianshu scratched his head and said, "I only listen to the young master. Anyone who wants to make things difficult for the young master is my enemy, and I will kill him."
Westminster threw the knife in his hand over, and Rat stretched out his hand to catch it.
The knife in Zuantianshu's hand seemed to have eyes. It spun in his palm and flew towards Ding Yuan's face. Before he could react, he felt a sharp pain on his face. His originally handsome face was scratched by the sharp weapon, leaving several bloody marks. With a scream, Ding Yuan fell to the ground in pain.
"Oh, this is too cruel. Such a handsome face is gone. I can't imagine what a girl's face would look like if it was ruined like this?" Zuantianshu smiled sinisterly and looked at Apple.
"What do you mean, cousin? Save me." Apple was so anxious that she jumped up and down, trying to break free.
Ximin sneered, "When you framed Tian'er, did you ever think that she was also afraid? Who could she ask for help? You knew that she was mine, but you still dared to touch her and signed the soul contract of this immortal world."
Apple was so anxious that she kept shaking her head: "Cousin, what era is this? There is no such thing as a soul contract. It's all a lie. Uncle Jiu said that even if I signed it in your name, it would be useless. It's all fake." Thinking about Uncle Jiu that day, she felt that he was really a bit strange. The way he behaved seemed a bit yin and yang. The more Apple thought about it, the more scared she became. Her voice of wanting to excuse herself became smaller.
With a "bang", Westminster threw a stack of photos on the ground. Apple picked them up and saw that it was the scene when Uncle Nine signed the contract with himself. The light was dim, but the contract stiffly said "I will not be able to enter the Hundred Days Soul Contract in this life", and it was signed by Westminster.
"This is not a house transaction, cousin. It's the 1990s now. Look at this official seal, it's probably used in the underworld. Who would believe in it?" Apple was a little puzzled.
"It's fine if you say you're not good-looking, but you're not smart enough. This contract between the human and immortal worlds is the survival rule of the other world, and once it's established, it will never be changed. You knew that the young master liked her, and you deliberately messed with her, and you even sold her to the other world, and now her life or death is unknown. Don't say that the young master can't forgive you, I will kill you too." As he spoke, Zuantianshu took out the knife from his waist: "Young master, it would be a disaster if you have such a cousin. The other world says that there is only one way to break the contract, and that is to use the heart blood of the person who signed the contract... Apple was extremely terrified, and muttered to himself: "I thought you only cared for her, after all, she was only a few years old. Cousin, you actually like Bai Tian so much. If you want to avenge her, come on, I overestimated my own abilities and thought that without her, you would fall in love with me, hehe."
Ximin just looked at her coldly: "Since your blood is needed to cancel the contract, then we can put our account aside for now. Take him away and raise him. We'll talk about it when we find Tian'er."
"Cousin, you must kill him." Apple suddenly pointed at Ding Yuan who was kneeling on the ground.
Ding Yuan instinctively stood up, then knelt down again, begging for mercy: "Miss, please spare my life, Master, please spare my life. My life is worthless, but it is not worth it if it dirtys your hands."
The Rat looked at Apple's reaction and said in some confusion: "Oh, you actually want to kill your sweetheart. You have such a cruel heart, woman." Apple's face turned blue and white, as if she was enduring something.
Ding Yuan saw the hand of the rat suddenly reach for his waist, and wailed, "Master, spare my life. I will tell you everything. Actually, I, I know Uncle Jiu."
The Rat rolled his eyes and said, "Do I need you to say this? Everyone knows that you know him."
Ding Yuan seemed to have made a great decision. He suddenly shook his head seriously and said, "The acquaintance I'm talking about is not an ordinary acquaintance. I am actually him..." Before he could finish his words, he vomited blood and fell down with convulsions.
Apple sneered: "People like you don't deserve to live in this world."
The Sky-Drilling Rat probed several vital points and found that there was no breath at all. He could not help but frown and said, "Master, this man does not seem to have committed suicide. Look at him here." Then he pointed to the three inches above the throat and said, "There is a hidden weapon implanted in him. It did not hit the vital point but it was as good as the vital point. This Ding Yuan is no different from dead.
Westminster looked around and signaled that the two men be taken away.
Facing the shove of the rat, Apple did not struggle or roar for the first time. Instead, he looked into the distance with a blank look in his eyes and murmured, "Cousin, kill Uncle Nine, kill him."
Westminster exchanged glances with the Rat.
"You have no grudge against Uncle Jiu, so why do you always want to kill him?" Zuantianshu asked casually.
Apple seemed to be in a trance and said, "I don't know him, I don't know him, haha, what a great mistake! He is not a human being at all, cousin, you must kill him."
Seeing Westminster was indifferent, Apple suddenly knelt on the ground and covered her face with her hands in pain. She cried so sadly, so sorrowfully, so desperately, and her tears were like a flood that broke through the dam.
"Hmph, wasn't it great that you and Uncle Jiu united to deal with Bai Tian? Why are you being so pretentious now?" Westminster seemed to be talking to a stranger, without any emotion.
