No matter how she thought about it, all she felt was despair! She feared that she would suffer a fate worse than death soon!
"Judging from this young lady's moves... she seems to be one of the Zhu Yiwei from Anguo~" At this moment, Wei Tingyu looked at Linglong, whose expression was unpredictable, and took two steps forward, speaking with a meaningful smile.
Linglong was stunned for a moment, and then her eyes widened.
Putting everything else aside, Wei Yu's accuracy is undeniable! Who would have thought that this Marquis of Jining, so far away in the capital, would be so familiar with the martial arts moves of the Anguo Zhuyiwei?! He recognized them with just a few moves?
Thinking of this, Linglong felt even more frightened! This Marquis of Jining was far more unfathomable than she had previously imagined!
Thinking about it this way, even if I had kept quiet and not exposed myself just now, it would have been extremely difficult to leave this manor. I'm afraid that sooner or later he would have seen through my disguise and exposed my identity.
Suddenly, Linglong's gazes turned to the same one, because she saw that Ren Ruyi had transformed into a blur and was attacking Wei Tingyu at lightning speed.
At this moment, Wei Tingyu was facing Linglong with her back to Ren Ruyi. Her surprise attack was perfectly timed!
Ren Ruyi knew in her heart that she hadn't made a move before because she was waiting for this opportunity!
Right now, Wei Tingyu only had eyes for Linglong, especially since he was still investigating the origin of her martial arts routines, so he certainly had no mind to observe his side.
Although Ren Ruyi knew she was no match for the Golden Shadow Guards, she managed to grab Wei Tingyu from behind before they could react, thus giving her a glimmer of hope!
Years of experience as an assassin and her intuition told Ren Ruyi that this was her last chance to escape the Jining Marquis's mansion!
Therefore, she didn't hold back at all in this move and used her fastest movement technique.
At the same time, Ren Ruyi's jade hand transformed from a palm into a claw, heading straight for Wei Tingyu's neck!
As they drew closer, and seeing that Wei Tingyu hadn't reacted yet, Ren Ruyi's heart grew increasingly tense.
The success or failure of this matter hinges on this moment!
However, just as she was about to succeed, Wei Tingyu suddenly dodged Ren Ruyi's attack by shifting her body to the side.
Then, seeing that he hadn't moved, he simply turned to the side and lightly tapped Ren Ruyi's wrist with an ordinary folding fan.
Ren Ruyi, whose attack hadn't landed heavily, was about to change her move mid-air and attack again when her wrist was casually tapped by the other party. She then felt a tremendous force that sent her flying three to five steps to the side.
However, Ren Ruyi was light and agile, and quickly adjusted her body in the air like a nimble raccoon, landing on the ground with a graceful posture.
"Great!" Wei Tingyu couldn't help but praise it when he saw this.
His eyes lit up as he looked at Ren Ruyi's agile figure; she was exactly the kind of talent he wanted!
"As expected of the Left Envoy of the Crimson Guard! His skills are truly extraordinary!"
If that scene had happened to someone with ordinary martial arts skills, they would have fallen flat on their face, looking incredibly pathetic!
However, Ren Ruyi not only avoided that embarrassing situation, but also landed very beautifully! Her clothes fluttered in the wind, making her look like a butterfly fluttering among the flowers!
Even killing can be done with such artistry; there's probably no one else in the world like Ren Ruyi!
With skills like that, shouldn't we give them a shout-out?
However, Ren Ruyi and Linglong were stunned when they heard Wei Tingyu's words.
Linglong, in particular, stared blankly at Ren Ruyi for two seconds before she reacted.
That's right! If she weren't a high-ranking member of the Zhu Yiwei, how could Ren Ruyi have such amazing skills? It's a pity I was blind; at first, I thought she was just an ordinary little white sparrow sent from above who didn't know any martial arts.
Only now do I realize that he's the real big shot!
Compared to Linglong's shock at Ren Ruyi's identity, she was even more incredulous that Wei Tingyu had directly revealed her own identity.
You should know that her identity is top secret; there are probably no more than five people in the world who know it.
Heaven knows why a marquis in the capital, thousands of miles away from Anguo, would know his identity!
So what should we do now? Kill him to silence him?
Ren Ruyi's mind raced, but she knew that this idea was completely wishful thinking at the moment!
She knew that Wei Tingyu was highly skilled in martial arts, which was why she had been waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack, so that she would have a better chance of success.
Who knew that the opponent's martial arts skills were far stronger than he had expected! He didn't even move his feet half a step before easily repelling his full-force attack.
The most dangerous thing is that this guy didn't even look back. It seems that he knew the direction of his attack and guessed his next move just by the sound of the wind.
The more Ren Ruyi thought about it, the more desperate she felt!
"What a magnificent Lotus Steps Hand technique!" However, Wei Tingyu looked at Ren Ruyi, whose expression was unpredictable, and said with a smile, "It's just a pity... the user's martial arts skills are too weak, so they can't unleash its full power!"
"You..." Ren Ruyi was initially shocked when she heard Wei Tingyu say that his move was the Lotus Steps. She felt that there were more and more mysteries surrounding this man.
However, after hearing his next sentence, the girl's expression immediately fell.
You say my martial arts skills are weak? If they were truly weak, could I have reached the position of Left Envoy of the Crimson Guard?
However, Ren Ruyi looked at Wei Tingyu and the other Golden Shadow Guards around her, and felt powerless to refute him! Among the people in this courtyard, apart from Linglong, it seemed that she really couldn't beat anyone!
So being mocked for having poor martial arts skills... seems to be just a fact!
"What? You know there's no hope, so you've given up?" Wei Tingyu asked again as he noticed the light in Ren Ruyi's eyes seeming to fade.
"..." Ren Ruyi was stunned, wondering what was wrong with this person? Was it not even allowed for her to give up?
Or is he simply playing a trick on himself?
"Alright then!" Wei Tingyu certainly didn't want to really demoralize Ren Ruyi into a second-rate assassin who had completely lost her fighting spirit, so he smiled and said, "Go ahead and keep attacking! I'll stand here and take your moves!"
"If you can make my foot move even one step, you win!"
"Then I will let you two leave!"
Upon hearing Wei Tingyu's words, Ren Ruyi's eyes lit up! If the opponent only defended and didn't attack, then she could launch a full-scale attack without holding back!
Even if he still couldn't beat Wei Tingyu, it wouldn't be impossible to force him to move his feet.
After all, no matter how high a person's martial arts skills are, Ren Ruyi didn't believe that he could be that high!
Thinking of this, she turned to look at Linglong again, and the other girl, knowing that this battle was beyond her control, nodded silently.
The two had worked together for quite some time, so they had developed some feelings for each other. Ren Ruyi was also loyal and did not arbitrarily decide their fates on her own.
Seeing Linglong's expression, Ren Ruyi knew that the other woman was willing to entrust her life to her completely.
However, Wei Tingyu's previous bet was clearly not finished, and she didn't believe that the other party would offer such good conditions without any demands.
"What if I lose?" Ren Ruyi thought for a moment and then asked.
"If we lose..." This was exactly what Wei Tingyu had been waiting for. He looked at Ren Ruyi and gave her a meaningful smile, saying, "From now on, you two will be loyal to me! Serve me! Be my women!"
As soon as Wei Tingyu finished speaking, Luo Renruyi frowned.
At this moment, she simply could not reconcile the image of the peerless master before her with that lecherous man whose mind was only occupied with sleeping with women.
But the facts are right in front of us! And what's worse, Wei Tingyu could easily subdue me and Linglong and force them to comply.
However, he was about to start some kind of betting game, seemingly certain that the two of them couldn't escape his grasp.
Although the fact that a man was coveting her body made Ren Ruyi very unhappy, she also knew that she could only leave if she agreed to this gamble!
Presumably, this Marquis of Jining also wants to truly conquer himself and Linglong!
Thinking this, Ren Ruyi snorted inwardly, but still nodded and said, "Fine! I agree!"
Without waiting for Wei Tingyu to speak, she raised her left hand and a flash of light flew out from her sleeve, heading straight for Wei Tingyu's face!
However, Wei Tingyu didn't dodge at all, but directly raised the folding fan in his hand to block his eyes! The next second, there was a crisp sound, and a steel needle was stuck straight into the folding fan.
Wei Tingyu could even feel the considerable force behind the projectile. If he hadn't infused his internal energy into the folding fan, the steel needle would have pierced through the fan and continued to strike him.
The poisonous tail needle! Ren Ruyi's unique hidden weapon is known for its concealment and suddenness!
It has to be said that Wei Tingyu felt that the name was really appropriate at this moment, because the attack just now was really too sudden!
However, before he could even mentally complain about Ren Ruyi's ruthless methods, he heard a whooshing sound in his ear, and Ren Ruyi had already attacked from behind the poisonous needles!
It turned out that the other party had charged towards his cabinet the moment he fired the poison needle.
At this moment, Ren Ruyi was also filled with emotion! She had just unexpectedly shot a poisonous needle at Wei Tingyu, never expecting that she could defeat him with just this hidden weapon.
What she wanted was for Wei Tingyu to dodge her hidden weapon in a moment of panic, so that her follow-up attack could throw him into disarray.
Unexpectedly, Wei Tingyu didn't even try to dodge; he simply raised his folding fan and easily blocked the poison needle! While surprised, Ren Ruyi knew she had no way out!
Therefore, he could only grit his teeth and use the Lotus Steps Hand technique to attack Wei Tingyu again!
However, Wei Tingyu stood motionless in place, without even making any significant movements of his limbs, and easily blocked all of her attacks with just his two hands.
Ren Ruyi fluttered up and down like a butterfly, circling Wei Tingyu's body more than twice in a single breath, while attacks came from all directions like a storm.

Chapter 164 Ren Ruyi obediently kneels down! She's finally convinced!
Linglong was completely dumbfounded by this scene.
Linglong couldn't even see the afterimages of Ren Ruyi's attacks clearly, but Wei Tingyu seemed to be strolling leisurely, as if he were in the eye of the storm yet completely at ease, which shocked Linglong even more.
At this moment, Linglong truly experienced for the first time what it was like to compete between masters!
However, compared to the relaxed and carefree Wei Tingyu, Ren Ruyi was becoming increasingly panicked.
She had tried everything she could, but found that she couldn't force Wei Tingyu to move an inch.
Every powerful attack he launched was easily neutralized by his opponent with a single hand!
