Chapter 850 The Mindset of a Tyrant
Mu Jin Baiyi says: Read this book!
The Yin-Yang School disciple secretly took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve. Inside the bottle was a potent poison they had created—called "Reverse Blood Soul Powder".
This drug is extremely difficult to detect. Initially, there are no abnormalities after taking it, but after drinking alcohol, or after intense emotional fluctuations and exercise, the blood and qi will flow backward, causing death by rushing to the heart.
Moreover, after death, the poison will completely dissolve in the body, and no matter how skilled the medicine master is, no trace of the poison can be found. They will only believe that the death was caused by natural factors.
Seeing this, Shadow Scorpion quietly took out a small blowgun from his pocket, the arrowhead already coated with powder of "Reverse Blood Pill".
He blew a gentle breath, and the blowgun flew silently towards the two members of the Si family, like a ghost.
The two members of the Si family were fleeing in a panic, completely unaware of the danger behind them.
The blowgun pierced the night sky and struck one of the Si family members squarely in the back of the neck.
He was startled, feeling a chill from the back of his neck, followed by a strange heat rising within him.
"Wha...what happened?"
He cried out in terror, but before he could finish speaking, he felt a rush of blood to his head, his forehead flushed, and his face instantly turned crimson.
Upon seeing this, another member of the Si family was greatly alarmed and quickly turned around to check on his companion.
However, the moment he turned around, Shadow Scorpion fired another arrow, which pierced his throat.
His eyes widened as he felt an indescribable pain surge into his heart, followed by a rush of blood to his head, turning his face crimson.
Those spoiled young masters who had escaped with their lives also sensed something was wrong. They stopped in their tracks and turned to look at the two fallen members of the Si family.
"What... what's going on?"
"A spoiled brat asked in a trembling voice."
However, before he could finish speaking, he felt a rush of blood to his head, his forehead flushed, and his face turned as red as blood.
He clutched his chest in terror, trying to say something, but only managed a few dying gasps before collapsing to the ground, lifeless.
Upon seeing this, the other spoiled young men scattered in terror, as if they had encountered something horrific.
However, their fate was already sealed.
Shadow Scorpion and the Yin-Yang School disciple quietly followed behind them, shooting them one by one with blowguns.
Yin Jingyi, who was inside the courtyard, was immersed in the pain of losing Su Xin and was completely unaware of the commotion outside.
Therefore, as Yin Jingyi slowly withdrew from his grief, his eyes swept over the courtyard, which was in complete disarray, littered with the corpses of纨绔子弟 (sons of wealthy families who had been spoiled and dissolute), some still bearing the terrified expressions of their dying moments.
The moonlight shone on this deathly still place, making it appear especially desolate.
His gaze finally settled on the two Si family members who should have escaped but were still lying in pools of blood not far away. A chill ran through him, and an ominous premonition pierced his spine like ice.
"This...something's not right."
He muttered to himself, his brow furrowed, a hint of wariness flashing in his eyes.
As a seasoned general, Yin Jingyi possesses an extraordinary sensitivity to danger.
Therefore, he quickly realized that the series of events that happened today were probably not accidental, and that there must be a deeper conspiracy behind them.
But at this moment, regret and self-blame surged like a tide, overwhelming all his reason—making him realize even more emotionally that he had been pushed to the forefront by this unknown black force behind the scenes, leaving him in a dilemma.
He has already made a grave mistake, and now he faces the same fate whether he sticks his neck out or not!
He was now stuck on the edge of a cliff, with no way back!
Taking a deep breath, Yin Jingyi forced himself to calm down.
He knew this was not the time to wallow in his emotions; he had to make a decision and find a way to survive for himself and for the soldiers who followed him.
His ruthless nature allowed him to quickly adjust his mindset, a resolute glint flashing in his eyes.
He stared blankly at Cong Suxin in his arms for a moment, then resolutely turned around, strode out of the villa, and headed straight for the city gates, his target being the elite force of the Great Qian Dynasty under his command—the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion.
Inside the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion's main camp outside the city, a chilling atmosphere prevailed.
The soldiers, clad in heavy tiger-head armor and wielding heavy halberds, stood majestically like unshakeable mountains.
Yin Jingyi walked into the camp, his gaze sweeping over the soldiers, and a strange sense of comfort welled up in his heart.
This is his territory, and it will be his greatest source of power from now on!
He walked straight to his command tent. Along the way, the soldiers saluted him, but he only nodded slightly and did not stop.
Upon entering the command tent, he immediately summoned his trusted generals from the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion.
"Gentlemen, I have gathered you all here today because I have important matters to discuss."
"Gentlemen, I have gathered you all here today because I have important matters to discuss."
Yin Jingyi, who was at the head of the table, spoke in a deep voice, his face extremely gloomy.
The generals exchanged bewildered glances. They had never seen Yin Jingyi with such a serious expression before, and a sense of foreboding welled up within them—something terrible was about to happen.
"Today at the villa in the city, I encountered a long-planned scheme."
"Those members of the Si family, relying on the power of the royal family, dared to lay a hand on my confidante. I could no longer tolerate it and took action to kill them."
Yin Jingyi spoke slowly, his voice calm but filled with barely suppressed anger.
The generals were startled upon hearing this.
They knew that although Yin Jingyi had a strong personality, his emotions had always been extremely stable, and he was by no means a person who would kill easily.
The fact that such a large-scale conflict has been launched this time must be because those members of the Si family have gone too far.
"I, Yin Jingyi, have caused the deaths of many members of the royal family and descendants of powerful nobles due to my own selfish desires. I cannot escape blame for this, but—"
He abruptly changed the subject, his gaze sharp and intense.
"I know that there must be treacherous people behind this, who intend to stir up trouble and disrupt the order of our court."
The camp was silent. The generals looked at each other, and although they had doubts, they dared not speak easily.
"My Yin family has been loyal and virtuous for generations, and I, Yin Jingyi, am even more unwilling to bear the name of traitor."
"But now I have been driven to the brink of despair. Only by fighting with all my might can I save myself and the lives of my brothers."
Yin Jingyi glanced at his trusted confidant, who was somewhat stunned by the sudden news, and continued speaking.
"General, what should we do?"
One of the trusted generals below couldn't help but ask.
"What to do? Hmph, since they dared to lay a hand on me, don't blame me, Yin Jingyi, for being ruthless!"
"From this day forward, the Tiger Head Heavy Armor Battalion will no longer be the royal family's lackeys, but my, Yin Jingyi's, private army!"
Yin Jingyi sneered, his already somewhat gloomy eyes revealing a resolute look.
