Chapter 996: Mo Junyi's Scheme

r voice, "A Tang, just do this for your mother, leave King Bei Jiang, okay""..."An Xuetang burst out laughing in anger, "Liu Guifei, what you're saying is outrageous! First of all, now that you are th...Lei Hong just silently watched from the side, stealing glances at those guards every now and then.

Although he was indeed a bit clumsy, at this point he could clearly see that a very fierce battle was about to take place.

The fight between man and tiger.

As expected, after a short while, the prince's beloved pets stirred awake. However, it was unclear what gestures Mo Junyi had made to them. Although they were awake, the tigers remained calmly lying on the ground.

After all the tigers had woken up, Mo Junyi stood up and pulled Lei Hong aside. He lowered his voice and said, "Did you bring that kind of short crossbow I asked for"

Lei Hong nodded slightly, "Master, you can rest assured that I will handle this matter."

That kind of short and small crossbow, don't look at it being small, its power is huge, much better than those big and heavy crossbows.

He and the Crown Prince hid several of these crossbows together. These crossbows were all personally made by the Princess Consort of Beijang.

According to the prince, these crossbows were the idea of the North Border Princess, but they haven't been mass-produced yet. The ones he and the prince have are because the North Border Princess was afraid they might be in danger, so she had them made specifically for them and had someone secretly deliver them.

Today, when having dinner with the Prince, the Prince reminded him to keep his crossbow on him and to carry extra arrows.

Now that the young master had asked, he finally understood the young master's intentions.

But after months of being by the prince's side, he hadn't done anything major yet. He felt a bit panicked when he thought about what he was going to do later.

I'm afraid I'll be so incompetent that I'll drag the young master down.

Mo Junyi's eyes seemed to see right through Lei Hong's thoughts. After a moment of silence, he patted Lei Hong's shoulder nonchalantly, "Don't be afraid."

He then pulled Lei Hong aside and coldly addressed the guards, "Enough, there's no need to dig any further. Just bury my beloved pet here."

As soon as Mo Junyi spoke, the guards all responded with a resounding "yes" and immediately turned to go before the tigers.

Lei Hong's hands clenched tightly, and she instinctively held her breath, staring straight at the guards.

Just as those guards were about to bend down and start dealing with the tigers being carried, in a flash, those tigers suddenly opened their mouths and bit down on those guards without hesitation.

The guards were truly utterly unprepared. In their eyes, these tigers were dead, whether carried from the camp onto a cart or taken off one. They didn't feel anything, but the tigers were breathing.

So no one expected such a sudden situation, caught off guard, almost everyone was bitten by the tiger.

Those tigers are incredibly fierce, with all sorts of biting and pouncing attacks.

Those guards were about to draw their swords, but Mo Junyi spoke first. He remained calm and collected, raising the crossbow in his hand. The arrow shot out with precision, striking the leader of the guards in the forehead.

Lei Hong witnessed everything with his own eyes. His mouth was slightly agape, clearly showing his disbelief. ... ...The prince... did he just kill someone

Because those guards didn't expect the prince to attack them, and they certainly didn't expect the "little thing" in his hand to have such penetrating power.

After the short arrow pierced the head of the leading guard, his hand immediately dropped and, after falling to the ground, he was bitten in the neck by a tiger.

Such a bloody scene made Lei Hong extremely uncomfortable, especially watching the tiger eating the guard's flesh... he almost couldn't help but vomit.

Mo Junyi did not stop after striking the man. He remained expressionless and continued to help the tiger. However, this time the guards were prepared for him, so it was more difficult for him to aim for their heads when he made his move.

But even if it didn't hit their head directly, it could still injure their arms and legs.

They were injured, so naturally they wouldn't stand a chance against the tiger.

Mo Junyi glanced at Lei Hong who was standing there dumbstruck. He said coldly, "Lei Hong, you're just waiting for them to come and kill you"

"..."

Lei Hong regained her composure, "Young Master, I..."

He stammered, not knowing what he wanted to say.

Just then, Mo Junyi's voice rang out again, "Your life-or-death duel, if you don't make a move, you only have death awaiting you."

Lei Hong's body trembled. He had seen those cruel murder methods and witnessed many people around him being killed during this time, but now that he was asked to kill with his own hands, he found it hard to get over this hurdle in his heart.

But as he hesitated, one of the guards suddenly reacted and wanted to grab Mo Junyi.

They also somewhat understood that by capturing Mo Junyi, these tigers who only listened to Mo Junyi could stop.

When they rushed towards Mo Junyi, Lei Hong, who had been hesitant to make a move, suddenly attacked them for some unknown reason.

Lei Hong, this kid, has pretty good archery skills. He can almost hit his enemies with every arrow.

Those guards who tried to break free from the tiger to grab Mo Junyi were soon overpowered after being struck by Lei Hong's arrows and died under their ferocious bites.

With Lei Hong's arrival, those guards were soon devoured by the tigers.

After it was all over, Lei Hong ran to Mo Junyi's side and looked him up and down. "Young Master, are you... alright Those people were really overestimating themselves, daring to lay a hand on you."

Mo Junyi narrowed his eyes slightly, "You're not afraid"

"...“ Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Lei Hong was suddenly stumped. He was taken aback for a moment, then reacted. He turned his head to look at the corpses behind him, and then at Mo Junyi.

There was still obvious shock in his eyes, oh my god!

Did he actually just attack And was he successful Every single short arrow from his crossbow, did it actually pierce those people

Mo Jun Yi looked at his silly appearance, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth. Actually, in his heart, he had more tolerance for Lei Hong.

Every time he thought Lei Hong was too foolish, his mind would flash back to what his mother had told him.

His mother said, he is just a ten-year-old child. A child should behave like a child, that's how he will be happy.

So when his mother was around, he wasn't deliberately being cute or pretending to be good in front of her. He only felt like a real ten-year-old when he was with his mother.

He was the only one these years who hoped to never grow up.

It's a pity that years of hardship have long robbed him of his innocence and the ability to be innocent, otherwise he would have died in the capital long ago, that place where the royal court eats people and spits out their bones.

So, Li Hong occasionally showed him a foolish side, and he only had to think that Li Hong, like himself, was just a boy of ten or so.

To put it bluntly, a person like him is entitled to be naive, so he's also willing to let Lei Hong mature step by step, rather than having the same level of scheming as early on.

Leihong, after coming to his senses, scratched the back of his head sheepishly:

"Prince, just now...I don't know what happened. When I saw those guards rushing towards you, I panicked. In a hurry, I acted, and...I didn't know I was so capable."ppressed her emotions and slowly closed her eyes.……After An Xuetang woke up, the North Border王府 finally had a few days of peace.An Xuetang also already knew of An An's difference.This child never crie...
