The Hedonist Sword God 254 Hidden message

Not showing the slightest change in expression, Jian Shen who had guessed that this would happen asked, "Who sent you?"

"What use is it to tell a dead man?"

Chuckling a little, Jian Shen said, "I was hoping you wouldn't say something so stupid."

"Huh? I'm stupid? Hahahahahahaha.. You had the chance to take possession of this beautiful body and many more and all you needed to drink was a cup of tea. You're the idiot for rejecting this opportunity by revealing unnecessary details."

Rolling his eyes, Jian Shen asked, "What use is it to have beautiful women when my own body won't belong to me?"

Looking towards Jian Shen through narrowed eyes, the woman smirked as she got down from the table and onto his waist while still holding the knife.

"Tell me, how did you figure out I wasn't the woman who was working here? I don't think I did any kind of a mistake someone like you who came here for the first time could spot."

"You mean other than poisoning the tea?"

Nodding her head, the woman who was sitting on Jian Shen's waist began thinking when did he even see her poisoning the tea, she had all of the preparations done before he even came here.

And the poison was a colourless and odourless kind which couldn't be spotted by even the one who made it if he wasn't fully alert.

"When I left the palace, there were two people trailing me. One of them was the annoying princess, and the other one was the spy that wanted to bribe me."

"Since I've already sent the princess away, you should know who you are."

Listening to all of it, the woman shook her head and said, "I don't believe you. You couldn't have figured out who I am depending on just the fact that I followed you."

"I didn't, I only found out who you are after you killed the woman who was supposed to serve me tea."

Looking towards the lake her back was facing over her shoulder, the woman said, "I was too sloppy... What you meant was how I discarded the body."

Not answering the question and just smiling, Jian Shen who had long since noticed the scent of blood in the air and the fabric inside the lake didn't bother looking towards it once again.

"For someone who figured so out so much, why did you behave like an idiot, boy? You should know what my strength isn't something that you can even defend against. So why did you do this?"

"You didn't leave me with an alternative. I very well couldn't become a mindless slave to whoever you are serving."

"Humph! It would've been your luck to serve my master, boy. But now that you've uncovered everything, it's best if I kill you. So tell me if you have any last wishes."

"I do. Tell me who it is that you are serving."

Shaking her head, the woman who no longer looked as gentle as she did before licked Jian Shen's neck and whispered into his ears, "In this world even the walls have ears."

Saying so, she was just about to begin pressing down on his neck with the short knife in her hand when Jian Shen sighed and said, "You can get her off me now."

"Huh?"

Before the woman could understand what was happening a hand took hold of the back of her neck and forcefully dragged her away from Jian Shen.

Somehow managing to turn her head and see who it was that had appeared without her being able to sense them, the woman's eyes turned wide as she quickly tried to bit the poisonous pill inside her mouth and kill herself.

But before she could do that, Jian Shen appeared in front of her like a ghost and kept her mouth open and impossible to bite.

"It would be such a waste for someone as beautiful as you to die so soon."

Cursing Jian Shen on the inside, the woman somehow spoke through her open mouth.

"You will regret this.... My master is already angry because you killed his brother.... He's definitely not going to forgive you for spoiling his plans."

Making sure to remember all of these words, Jian Shen more or less guessed who this master she was talking about was. But what he didn't understand was how he was found out so soon.

He already knew that there was someway his identity was revealed to the family of the man that he killed, but there wasn't anything placed on him which could help them track his location.

So how was he found so soon?

Unless, it wasn't him they were here for but rather he just ended up revealing himself to the woman who was here to do something else.

"You didn't come here because you knew I would be here, you came here for something else. What is it?"

As the woman snorted and didn't say anything, Lei Xifeng mercilessly crushed her neck and said, "She's here for my daughter. Her father is the master she was talking about."

"Also, it was a nice idea you used to ask for my help."

Shrugging his shoulders, Jian Shen said, "I couldn't do anything obvious like giving your daughter a note or whispering in her ears if we wanted to catch this woman."

Nodding her head, Xifeng dropped the woman and said, "I'm happy with how smart you were, but I'd appreciate it if you could find some place other than my daughter's breasts to write a message to me the next time you want to do such a thing."

Yup, when Jian Shen had entered the alleyway and had his hand pushed away by the then invisible Lei Luli, he had already imprinted the words written on his finger on the revealed part of her breasts.

Sure they were small, but he had complete confidence in Xifeng spotting them when Lei Luli went back to complain about him.
