Chapter 243: Self-invested

Zhong Jinling's eyes widened, she could hardly believe her ears. Chu Qin actually said such heartless words. Is she such a person in his heart?

How could she hope that he will die? What's more, if he really dies, not only will she not be able to take care of Shangguan He and his son, but she will also make things difficult for them?

"Chu Qin!" Zhong Jinling shouted in a sharp voice: "Are you talking about human words?"

Chu Qin said coldly: "You ask yourself, have you ever done something that helps me when you are getting married? You only know how to be arrogant and domineering. I will say this, you can do it yourself."

"Okay!" Zhong Jinling cried and shouted: "I'll leave! I won't enter your house again! Let's be ruthless from now on!"

In the Zejun camp, Gu Du was deploying troops with the generals and the guards came in to report: "Master General, Lingguo Zhong Jinling asked for a meeting."

Gu Duwei frowned and said, "You all retreat. When I finish this matter, I will discuss tomorrow's battle."

"Yes." The generals agreed in unison and retreated one after another.

Gu Du said to the guards: "Please come in."

After a while, Zhong Jinling walked in, looked at Gu Du and said, "Aren't you going to kill me? I'm here."

Gu Du laughed and said, "Madam Ru, please sit down."

Zhong Jinling replied coldly: "No need."

"Okay." Gu Du pulled out the treasure knife, Zhong Jinling was stunned and said, "Wait!"

Gu Du held back his laughter and asked, "Didn't you come to the door and ask me to kill you? Why? Do you regret it again? Then you can't leave."

Zhong Jinling said, "I'm here to my door, you have to get my wish, right?"

Gu Du raised his knife and said coldly: "It's not what I invited you."

Zhong Jinling quickly drew his sword, and Gu Du slashed over with a knife. Zhong Jinling suddenly felt his body tightening and quickly mobilized his spiritual power to fight against him. Only this time was late, he could only raise his sword to block it.

With a crisp sound, Zhong Jinling's arms were numb because of the shock, and he staggered back two steps. Instead of chasing, Gu Du took a step back and raised his knife to look at the blade.

Zhong Jinling looked at Gu Du in shock, and waited for a moment before he realized that Gu Du wanted to try her newly created sword.

Zhong Jinling asked, "Didn't you say you want to kill me?"

Gu Du replied: "Yes, but what's the matter if you deliver it to your door like this?"

Zhong Jinling said, "I said, you want to repay me with a wish."

Gu Du sneered and said, "I want to kill you. Even in the formation of ten thousand troops, it is like taking objects. Do you still need to send it to your door? Your life is not as valuable as you think."

"You bastard!" Zhong Jinling was so angry that she thrust her sword and stabbed Gu Du.

Gu Du slapped out his palm, Zhong Jinling fell out of the tent, and blood was sprayed on his mouth. Ze soldiers surrounded him, and the swords were raised at the same time. Gu Du walked out and said, "It's gone."

Zebing dispersed in response, and Zhong Jinling forced himself to hold up and stared at Gu Du viciously.

Gu Du walked to her and squatted down, approached her and whispered: "It's not enough to succeed, but it's more than enough to fail."

Zhong Jinling suddenly raised his hand, but vomited blood again. Gu Du reached out and took off the scabbard from her waist and threw it on the ground, then picked her up horizontally.

Zhong Jinling's whole body was bound by Gu Du's spiritual power and could not move. At this time, her qi and her spiritual power were blocked and her spiritual power became weak. She could not resist Gu Du at all. She could only ask in panic: "What are you going to do? Kill me quickly!"

Gu Du sneered and said disdainfully: "What do you think? If it were my senior sister, maybe I would have thoughts, you? I don't deserve it."

This sentence hurts people more than anything else. Zhong Jinling was so angry that he vomited and bleeding, and said gritting his teeth: "Gu Du! I will cut you into pieces sooner or later and tear you into pieces!"

Gu Du stopped talking and hugged her and walked towards the gate of the camp.

Zhong Jinling frowned and asked when he was about to reach the door: "What are you doing?"

Gu Du said, "Look at the distance."

Zhong Jinling turned his head and saw Chu Qin standing in the distance.

Gu Du walked to Chu Qin, Chu Qin picked up Zhong Jinling, and Gu Du said, "I'll keep Mrs. Ru's sword, and I'll use it for my junior sister."

Chu Qin nodded, and Gu Du turned around and left.

Zhong Jinling cried with her arms around Chu Qin's neck. Chu Qin sighed and coaxed, "Okay, I shouldn't say that to you, don't be wronged, are you seriously injured?"

"Ah..." Zhong Jinling burst into tears.

When he returned to the camp, Chu Qin diagnosed Zhong Jinling's pulse. Knowing that she was not seriously injured, she was a little anxious and asked, "What are you going to find Gu Du?"

Zhong Jinling stared at him and said angrily: "Didn't you say I've never helped you? I'll go to the trap and tell him not to kill you!"

Chu Qin sighed, turned around, hugged her in her arms, and silent for a while before saying, "He will not kill me unless he has to."

Zhong Jinling sneered: "I know, he likes Sister He. He said in person just now that if he changed Sister He, he would have some thoughts."

Chu Qin laughed silently, knowing where the source of her agitated heart was. It turned out that she was angry with Gu Du's words.

Zhong Jinling said annoyedly: "You are still laughing!"

Chu Qin patted her and coaxed her, "Okay, he is not that kind of person. He said this torture you on purpose. You offended him repeatedly. Now that he has the opportunity, he will naturally have to pay back to you."

Zhong Jinling pouted and lost her face, paused for a while before asking, "He said he wanted to kill me, why didn't he kill me?"

Chu Qin replied, "I think now that he said that intentionally, to incite you and then hurt me."

Zhong Jinling was stunned, and then suddenly realized that he would make an appointment to fight tomorrow and hurt Chu Qin in advance, which would be beneficial to the situation of the battle, but...

Zhong Jinling asked, "Why didn't he kill us directly? Isn't that easier? With his current ability, it's easy to kill us."

Chu Qin replied: "Whether you are killed or me is killed, it will make my grandfather take action. He is not sure about the matchup with my grandfather."

After pausing, Chu Qin said again: "And he really likes He'er in his heart and doesn't want to make He'er sad. Anyway, Lingguo is not like Zeguo. Without Zeguo, he loses the general trend. Without Lingguo, there are still many people who can lead the army, so whether to kill me or not does not affect the overall situation."

Zhong Jinling was silent for a while, sighed and said, "I really don't understand your conspiracy and calculations."

Chu Qin said: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand, but be calm when encountering things, talk less and read more, and don't show your emotions."

Zhong Jinling shook her head and said, "Forget it, take a break, I'll leave overnight."

Chu Qin lowered her head and looked at her, Zhong Jinling said, "I won't be angry with you anymore. I figured it out. Grandpa once told me that many abilities are born and cannot be learned. Just like you, like Gu Du. Grandpa also said that Li Xia is also a great soul master, but since she became the queen, she has never been to the battle formation. Grandpa said that she was not losing her spirit, nor was she afraid, but she had more important things to do."

Zhong Jinling sighed again and said, "I understand today. I can't help you, it will only drag you down. I will go home and teach the children that we must pass on from generation to generation and show glory."13
