Yang Si rode forward to ask, "Does the lord already know who the mastermind is? What is the reason behind his actions? Why did he want to assassinate the lord?"
What was the reason?
Jiang Pengji smirked coldly and said, "This assassination attempt was neither against Xu Bei nor Xu Fei, it was directed at your lord. The target was me, not anyone else, it was never meant for anyone else. Xu Bei and Xu Fei were innocent bystanders who suffered misfortune for naught. Who would have expected them to be so unlucky that they would be around when it happened? Speaking of which, that assassin's martial arts skills were such a shame, his ability unimpressive... He only possessed basic skills, yet he dared to assassinate me? That was a complete waste of my time."
It had never crossed Yang Si's mind that the assassin had truly been after his lord's life.
Could it be the lord's enemy?
