Chapter 64 - Chapter 64 Knot

Lu 37 is the top assassin ranked 37th on the list of assassins in the world, named Lu Hanting. Skilled in using a thin sword, he has killed nearly a hundred people since his debut, all with one sword sealing his throat. No one expected him to hide in the Pure Land City and openly accept a bounty. However, this 37th person in the world is not very famous. He is known as the most unscrupulous in the assassin world, and can do anything for money. Some people jokingly say that as long as he has enough money, he can kill his own son.

Having a bad reputation is one thing, but the means are definitely not bad. This person has never failed the job he takes on, and many people think that as long as Jiang Fan dares to leave Jile City, it will be his death.

Although Jiang Fan is currently only a suspect, it is clear that Nangong Xin has identified him as the mastermind behind the execution of Liu Changqing. Most people doubt this statement for a simple reason, it's not necessary at all. When did Jiang Gongzi's song "Mingyue" shock the world and justify himself? He doesn't even bother to plagiarize, so there's no reason to kill Liu Changqing. Is it just for Liu Changqing to openly slander himself? Liu Changqing has already lost face, it is obviously illogical to do so again.

The problem is that Liu Changqing's suicide note directly points to Jiang Feng, and unless evidence is found, it is difficult to refute.

However, external attention is limited to this. As for Nangong Xin's public bounty for murder, there is not much objection, and more people are waiting to watch the excitement, which is where everyone's interest lies. After all, this is a paradise city. It is not surprising that such a thing would happen in a gathering place of criminals and bandits.

Of course, there are many supporters of Prince Jiang who have been running around for him, angrily rebuking Nangong Xin and questioning his jealousy and desire to destroy a literary genius of his time. But what's the point? This world is in chaos, although people love Jiang Gongzi's poetry very much, it is the aristocratic families who are the rulers of this era. Many people believe that in Jile City, if it were another place, Nangong Xin wouldn't have been so troublesome. He had already sent someone to directly take his life.

One is a wealthy family from the Eastern Jin Dynasty, and the other is a rising star in the literary world. What fun would they have if they were against each other? This is what the people of Jile City want to see. What reaction will that young master Jiang have? Run away with his tail between his legs, or hide in the Golden Jade Tower and not come out, or there may be other ways to deal with it, after all, it is said that Jiang Gongzi also has several bandits under his command, and countless people are waiting and watching.

Jiang Gongzi hasn't reacted yet, but something unexpected happened. No one expected that after the assassin Lu 37 took the order, he would directly send a battle message to Jiang Fan, saying that if he had the courage, he would face death on stage.

With these words, Jile City caused a sensation.

There is no other place, but the Jue Que Tai is a unique location in the Jile City, symbolizing gratitude and enmity. It was the sudden inspiration of the lord of Jile City that martial arts were prohibited in Jile City, but there were still people who repeatedly violated the ban for various reasons. In order to reduce such incidents, this platform was simply established, allowing hostile enemies to gamble on life and death in various ways. Even the use of martial arts is allowed, making it the only place in Jile City where one can engage in physical combat. The condition is that all parties involved must agree, and once on stage, one must witness life and death. The parties involved can either personally take action or hire someone to bet on the outcome.

Unexpectedly, as soon as this platform was established, many people took to the stage to gamble their lives. Jile City used this opportunity to open its doors and set up gambling games, earning enough silver.

Lu Hanting proposed the idea of facing life and death on the platform, but many people were puzzled until someone explained that the reason why 37 was in Jile City was probably due to the pursuit of enemies and unable to leave the city, and the silver money was about to be used up, so he took the order from Nangong Xin.

This is not surprising, such incidents are not uncommon in Jile City. It is interesting that the 37th assassin in the world can also be forced to do this, which has left the public amazed.

The next step is simple, it depends on whether Jiang Fan dares to confront him. If he doesn't, Lu Hanting really has no way to deal with him.

In the eyes of many people, there is no need for Prince Jiang. As a young poet with a rising reputation and a promising future ahead of him, he would not risk his life with a killer.

Unexpectedly, the young master Jiang gladly accepted and made a condition with a backhand: the name of Nangong Xin must be signed on the book of life and death.

Filling in the name means that this person must be present, and as long as they lose, those with names on the book of life and death must die.

The climax rose again, and Nangong Xin was hit by a backhand, and everyone's eyes immediately focused on him.

Before Nangong Xin could reply, Prince Jiang waved his hand and once again made a bold statement. Anyone who wanted to kill him could join forces and gamble with him. But there is only his own name on the book of life and death, so he comes if he feels it's appropriate.

Previously, someone broke into the Golden Jade Tower and was suspected by many to be related to this young master Jiang. Now, Jiang Fan's move has confirmed this matter.

Everyone was shocked inexplicably, on one hand due to Jiang Fan's boldness, and on the other hand, it puzzled everyone. Not only do I not understand why he did it, but it is clearly unnecessary. On the other hand, it is well known that Prince Jiang is not skilled in martial arts. Why did he provoke so many enemies, even risking his life to kill him in Jile City?

Jiang Gongzi's origins are unknown. Since the stunning appearance of the two poems, many people have tried to investigate what exactly this young talent came from, but unfortunately, they have found nothing. Now, it has become even more mysterious to be related to the consecutive assassinations that have occurred in the Golden Jade Tower.

Many people came to the exterior of Jinyu Tower and noticed that the young master Jiang spent his days singing and dancing in the midst of birds and swallows, drinking and enjoying himself happily.

On the other hand, Nangong Xin became silent and stayed indoors in the inn for three consecutive days without any response.

Nangong Xin was really angry and almost smashed everything he could. Lu Hanting did not consult with him about this, and Jiang Fan's future move caught him off guard.

This army is being held tightly. Whether to go or not instantly became his dilemma.

Go, it's not worth it to bet on life and death between Shaodong, the richest man in the Eastern Jin Dynasty and a young man from his own wealthy family. If you don't go, your previous vow to avenge your friend will become a laughingstock, and you won't be able to hold your head high in the future. Don't even think about the Pure Land City. Not to mention Meng Chanjuan, who is always thinking about her heart and mind. It is estimated that even mentioning him would make one sneer.

Jiang Feng! Damn it! Lu 37, you bastard

As Nangong Xin was about to smash something, an old man sneered and said, "Young master, be calm and composed. As a mere yellow mouthed child, it's not easy for you to deal with him

Nangong Xin was stunned for a moment, then put down the jade cup in his hand and said, "What advice does Mr. Cao have

The old man smiled faintly and said, "The young master's concern is nothing more than the mysterious origin of that young man. He is afraid that there may be some formidable henchmen, and Killer 37 cannot handle it. He just lost the battle

Nangong Tongdao said, "Indeed, Lu Hanting acted without the consent of this young master and made unauthorized claims. Now that I am in a difficult situation, what should I do

The old man said, "I have already told the young master that Jiang Feng's real name is Jiang Fan, and he is just a fisherman in the Qingfengxia district. It is not worth worrying about at all. Besides, as long as we guarantee that everything is foolproof and we will win the bet, what are we afraid of

Will we win? "Nangong Xin asked in confusion," Everything has its surprises, so Jiang Feng is not a good match. I don't know who organized two rounds of assassination, but both ended in failure. The body is still hanging in the South City Tower. How can we ensure that everything goes smoothly
