Swing the sword at the future female devil

Chapter 284 Qin Shuangjiang: Yan Qiuxi, is this your power?

Moreover, the audacious Duan Huaige didn't intend to target only Prince Yan during his first night raid. After learning about the Old Master's plan, he also needed to find an opportunity to discuss it with Qin Shuangjiang to avoid any mishaps in the plan.

Operation codename: First slay Qiu Xi, then annihilate Shuang Jiang!

Based on the memories left from searching around during the day, Duan Huaige quickly and easily arrived at Yan Qiuxi's room. The lights inside were off, and the faint moonlight illuminated Duan Huaige's furtive figure.

Qiuqiu...I'm coming in?
Perhaps it was because the feeling of guilt was too strong, Duan Huaige actually felt a strange heartbeat and excitement. No wonder Yan Qiuxi liked night raids so much, it turns out that this feeling of sneaking around is really addictive!
Faced with the choice between the door and the window, Duan Huaige, for the sake of a sense of ceremony, decisively chose to climb in through the window. He landed silently, approaching the door little by little.

However, Duan Huaige soon discovered that in the room where there should have been only one breathing sound, there were suddenly two girls breathing. And on the large bed, there were also two figures.

Duan Huaige: ?

He broke out in a cold sweat on the spot. Perhaps this wasn't a ghost story, but to him it was more terrifying than any ghost story.

Dude, I've fallen for their trap! King Yan has ruined me!

So, the three taps on my head meant... there were actually three people waiting for me in the room!

Duan Huaige's heart pounded wildly; this was the perfect test of his mental fortitude. If he could just pretend nothing had happened and turn away, there was still a chance for things to turn around.
Conversely, if one of the girls discovers it, then you're really in deep trouble.

Fortunately, Xiao Jiang was sleeping soundly, and Yan Qiuxi was a very easygoing person. The only one in slight danger was Qin…

Before Duan Huaige could even catch his breath, he turned his head and saw a pair of deep, cold eyes staring at him in the darkness. In the dim moonlight, the girl's entire body was hidden in the shadows, and the Autumn Water Longsword that was about to be slowly drawn from her waist reflected the moonlight, making it look just like a scene from a horror movie.

Duan Huaige trembled with fright. Without even asking, he knew that with that look and that aura, it was clear that the sword immortal Qin Shuangjiang had woken up.

Not only did she wake up, but she also discovered that Duan Huaige had barged into her room!

Those who cultivate swordsmanship have keen senses, and Qin Shuangjiang's vigilance is far superior to that of Yan Qiuxi and Xiao Jiang, so it's not surprising that she discovered someone had entered the room. After all, night raids on her are the most difficult.

It wouldn't be so bad at other times, but he had just experienced a chaotic situation that morning. After the wedding invitation incident, his favorability rating was at its lowest. For Duan Huaige to encounter such a situation was no less dangerous than him directly taking on a hundred-ton king...

My life is over!

Duan Huaige cried out in his heart, but his strong will to survive quickly took control of his body, leading him to make an extremely daring and risky move.

He stepped forward, reached out and covered Miss Shuangjiang's mouth to shush her, and whispered in her ear, "Shuangjiang, don't shout, I'm here to find you."

Qin Shuangjiang: ? You came to Yan Qiuxi's room saying you were looking for me? Could your reason be any more outrageous?
The girl seemed amused by Duan Huaige's bravery, her fingers stroking the hilt of the "Looking Through Autumn Water" sword, but she didn't immediately draw it to give him a couple of blows.

I'd like to see what you're up to!

Seeing that the King of Qin did not wake the other two immediately, Duan Huaige felt relieved. The first hurdle had been barely passed. As long as Qin Shuangjiang did not make a move immediately, it meant there was still room for maneuver!

"You have one minute to come up with a respectable reason for your burial," Qin Shuangjiang said with a cold laugh. "Start the timer now."

Although time was of the essence, Duan Huaige maintained his composure. He sighed softly, turned his head, and gazed at the bright moon by the window with his hands behind his back.
"I know you must be very angry with me, Shuangjiang, after all, what I did really hurt you."

“Shuangjiang, I know you. You won’t listen to my explanation when you’re angry, so I waited until late at night to come here and explain everything.”

"You'd better explain to me why you came to Yan Qiuxi's room when you were looking for me," Qin Shuangjiang said expressionlessly. "Don't tell me you went to the wrong room."

"Huh? Shuangjiang, how come you're so quick-witted? Cough cough cough... Just kidding, don't look at me like that. Actually, there's a reason why I came to Yan Qiuxi's room!"

"Look, the wedding invitation incident during the day led the three of you to form an alliance and blockade me. Knowing Shuangjiang's personality, you definitely won't forgive me easily, but you know that Yan Qiuxi will definitely stir up trouble behind the scenes!"

"So you'll definitely be refreshing her room during this time, partly to prevent Yan Qiuxi from betraying you, and partly because I know you want to protect your childhood friend, Shuangjiang, since the demoness Taiqing might appear at any time."

"."

"I'm not that great." Miss Frostfall pouted arrogantly, then said quietly, "You said you came here specifically to find me, so why did you suddenly turn around and leave? What, you suddenly ran out of things to say when you saw me?"

"To be honest, yes," Duan Huaige sighed, "as the saying goes, the closer one gets to home, the more timid one becomes. I had a thousand words I wanted to say, but after seeing you, I couldn't say anything. I just wanted to gently hold your hand, hug you, and say sorry."

As Duan Huaige spoke, he took Qin Shuangjiang's slightly cool hand and opened his arms to hug the girl's shoulders.

Of course, Miss Shuangjiang wasn't as naive and easily fooled as Xiao Jiang. She coldly observed Duan Huaige's sophistry, and was just about to use the hilt of her sword to block his embrace before properly questioning him:

You said you had a thousand words to say but couldn't express them, so why were your legs shaking just now? Was it too cold?

You bastard, how dare you hug me? Who gave you the courage?

But as soon as this thought crossed her mind, Qin Shuangjiang suddenly remembered her sisterly chat with Miss Qiuxi that evening.
If it were Yan Qiuxi, perhaps her approach would be different from mine? Just as she said, to win love, one must focus on the big picture and keep the major strategic points firmly in mind; the gains and losses of individual cities and places are actually secondary!

The main reason she was so angry today was that Duan Huaige had actually sent the wedding invitations, which were meant for her, to other people. Her pride kicked in, and she became furious and started to break off the relationship. She even secretly kicked him a few times to vent her anger.
But Yan Qiuxi chose to slack off and not put in any effort, showing no anger at all because of this matter. That's why Duan Huaige came to her room tonight.
King of Qin: I understand now, Yan Qiuxi!
From now on, your skills belong to me!
