How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 661: Uncanny Tacit Understanding of the Emperor and Empress

Chapter 661: Chapter 661: Uncanny Tacit Understanding of the Emperor and Empress

When everyone appeared, they looked at Tang Zan with deep disgust in their eyes.

"Traitor, surrender your life!"

Tang Zan chuckled lightly, his eyes full of mockery.

"I am now the legitimate Emperor, acknowledged by both heaven and the people. It is your actions that make you the traitor."

He waved his hand slightly, and hundreds of elite members of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion emerged from the shadows.

These individuals were all elites, and before the assassins could react, a massacre ensued.

The ground was littered with bodies, both of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion and the assassins.

However, Tang Zan’s expression remained extremely calm, even Pei Shu’er, who was accustomed to war, became numb.

The remaining individuals had their martial arts abilities destroyed and were kept for interrogation.

Some attempted to bite their tongues or swallow poison to commit suicide, but Tang Zan saw through it and had their jaws dislocated in advance.

He extracted the poison from under their tongues.

These people thought they were coming for an assassination at a spot perfectly suited for an ambush, but they forgot that others could ambush them there as well.

Of course, not all the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion members were ambushed here; they were also lying in wait along possible attack routes.

This time, Tang Zan aimed to eliminate the remaining faction.

Victory and defeat are two sides of the same coin; since Yan Hengyin was defeated, his subordinates only posed a threat to him.

He wouldn’t be sentimentally soft-hearted towards those who want to kill him, thinking of reforming them instead.

He wasn’t that naive.

Not everything can be resolved with just love and peace; before results are achieved, chaos is at its peak.

To swiftly end this chaos, one must cut through the mess with a quick knife.

Shortly after they departed, wild beasts, attracted by the scent of blood, arrived and devoured the bodies.

Meanwhile, the captured individuals were interrogated along the way, proceeding in the direction they indicated.

With Pei Shu’er as an interrogation tool, other Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion members had to take a backseat.

Previously, Pei Shu’er had complete trust in the people of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion, but some of these assassins were decoys thrown by the enemy, spreading false information.

Pei Shu’er immediately took several scrutinizing glances at the assassin, vaguely sensing something unusual.

The members of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion judged based on experience and went, only to be caught in an ambush.

That time, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion suffered severe losses, though these were foreseeable.

It was due to this misjudgment that Pei Shu’er, Tang Zan, and the people of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion got separated.

Only a small portion of the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion members remained with the two.

The assassin who lied and deceived, knowing their goal had been achieved, attempted suicide several times but was unsuccessfully thwarted by Pei Shu’er each time.

Simultaneously, truth serum was used on the individual.

She kept increasing the dose until she saw the individual’s pupils dilate and consciousness cloud before starting her inquiries.

This time, the information obtained was genuine.

"We had previously arranged to meet by the river."

"At the same time, due to limited water resources in this forest and the long duration, everyone is bound to replenish water."

In the hunting ground, there was only that one water source, so Pei Shu’er and Tang Zan immediately led their people to the river.

Upon reaching the riverside, they found a peaceful scene, even with a sika deer drinking by the river.

There were no signs of any human activity around.

Yet, the absence of such signs by the river was highly suspicious.

The two walked towards the river, and Xuan Liu grew anxious, lowering his voice.

"Master, should someone else impersonate you?"

Tang Zan replied, "No need, just follow my arrangements."

As Pei Shu’er and Tang Zan reached the riverbank and bent down to scoop water for washing their faces, their gazes remained vigilant of their surroundings.

When they were about to get up, a large net suddenly fell over their heads.

Tang Zan promptly hugged Pei Shu’er and leaped, barely dodging the net, but the next one ensnared them both.

Tang Zan immediately pulled out a dagger and began slicing at the net, only to find it incredibly sturdy, impervious to the knife.

Pei Shu’er was also somewhat surprised, noticing that the net contained wire.

At this point, those hiding in the shadows stepped out.

Leading them was a tall man who signaled to the others.

"Bring them away," he ordered.

Because they feared Tang Zan’s martial arts, they didn’t even open the net; instead, they dragged them away within it.

Tang Zan, seeing Pei Shu’er’s delicate skin being chafed, immediately held her tenderly in his arms, distressed.

Their captors sneered coldly, "The dog emperor is truly devoted."

No sooner had these words been spoken than nets enveloped their heads too.

Though these nets weren’t as resilient as the one ensnaring Pei Shu’er and Tang Zan, they were far sturdier than regular nets, rendering them momentarily ineffective.

As Tang Zan and Pei Shu’er quietly switched to electric saws, the enemies heard a peculiar buzzing sound, and before they could react, Pei Shu’er and Tang Zan had already escaped the net.

At the same moment, the assassins began desperately trying to break free, with some advancing towards the two, faces clearly brimming with murderous intent.

Seeing that capturing alive was impossible, they planned to kill.

Meanwhile, Pei Shu’er and Tang Zan already had another net over them, crafted by the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion; when sides were so close, it was unavoidable to be caught in it.

Pei Shu’er immediately used the electric saw to cut open the net, and as they dashed out, several more nets fell over the assassins.

The assassins were indignant, immediately pulling out hidden weapons to shoot at Pei Shu’er and Tang Zan.

Both reacted swiftly, and paired with their daily Spiritual Spring Water bath, their agility was unmatched.

Effortlessly dodging the hidden weapons, Tang Zan drew a gun and fired back, hitting one, who even as he fell, managed to fire another projectile.

With Tang Zan’s shooting posture still maintained, Pei Shu’er swiftly tackled him to the ground.

The projectile instead hit a snake, which within moments turned black and began to dissolve.

After everything settled, the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion individuals collectively broke into a cold sweat.

They dared not fathom, had it not been for Pei Shu’er, their master might have perished.

It wasn’t just highly toxic, but even corrosive.

If poisoned, their Empress, the Divine Doctor, would be able to handle it.

But if it was corrosive, and people turned into water, not even the Daluo Golden Immortal could help.

Besides, amidst such peril, the one throwing hidden weapons with the Emperor intended mutual destruction.

The timing of the hidden weapons then was hardest to avoid.

Without such tacit understanding between the Emperor and Empress, the Emperor would surely be hit.

Most importantly, their reaction speed was indeed unmatched by ordinary people.

Even they, trained for over a decade, couldn’t match the Empress’s reflexes.
