Chapter 318: The Assassins
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The Saint Divine Land was an open place, and the street was bustling on every festival.
The Mid-Autumn Festival, in particular, was a day when all kinds of lanterns were hung. It was indeed new and interesting.
Gu Chaoyan was totally attracted by the beautiful scene, as she walked out of the mansion.
Zhou Huaijin took her hand, fearing that she would get lost among the crowd. Then he said to her with a smile, “The night market would be even more shining, if we were out on Lantern’s Day!”
Gu Chaoyan was already shocked by the scene in front of her. Then she pointed at a place where they could do some lantern riddles. “Let’s go and check out there.”
Then she took hold of Zhou Huaijin’s hand and started to walk in that direction.
Zhou Huaijin was startled at the beginning, but then soon saw the slender fingers on him. He smiled brightly.
“You want a lantern riddle too?” The owner of the stand asked with a smile. The girl was dressed plainly, but a businessman like him could tell by one glance that the young master behind the girl was someone with an extraordinary status. He knew that the young master would pay however much the girl wanted, since he needed to flatter the girl.
Gu Chaoyan shook her head. She was not good at doing riddles, and the lanterns were not that pretty either. She pointed at the large lantern above her head and asked, “How can we get that one?”
The owner threw a look at the lantern, then he said cheerfully, “That is our top prize! The entry fee is 50 yuan. As long as we have ten participants ready, we are starting the contest and the first person that gets it, wins!”
Ten participants… So that basically meant 500 yuan.
Zhou Huaijin, however, did not have the intention of letting Gu Chaoyan wait.
Instead, he asked Fu Bao to pay 500 yuan to the owner, hopped up and took down the lantern directly.
Gu Chaoyan was so glad to see that. He looked extremely handsome among the patch of lanterns.
Zhou Huaijin was about to go down when several men dressed in black rushed out and besieged Zhou Huaijin. That startled Fu Bao too. He instantly stood before Gu Chaoyan and Qing, whilst Zhou Huaijin’s hidden guards also rushed out, starting a fight with them.
The civilians got all startled. They ran away directly.
Gu Chaoyan was very anxious. She intended to rush out to give him a hand when Fu Bao stopped her. Fu Bao said seriously, “Elder Miss, don’t move, I will keep you safe. Lord is fine, we have many hidden guards. We are always ready for this kind of situation which happens often,” Fu Bao said calmly as if it was not a big deal.
Gu Chaoyan, on the other hand, was not assured.
Does this happen often? How much pressure did he have to bear every single day?
She had thought about this before – the King might adore him most on the surface, but in the meanwhile, the King was also pushing him to the frontline, so he was the target for every other ambitious son. Those who had ambitions would remove him first. That was what was going on now.

Gu Chaoyan got very anxious, but she was really bad at hopping, so she could do nothing but stand by.
Fu Bao was standing in front of them all the time. That was the mission Zhou Huaijin gave to him. He had to keep Gu Chaoyan safe and sound.
After the assassins were finished, Zhou Huaijin walked towards Gu Chaoyan with a smile, still holding the lantern.
Gu Chaoyan could sense the smell of blood. Then she saw the wound on his arm, and burst into tears.
