Chapter 162 Gimmick

Wu Zhuo's few words made Han Qingzi's face turn pale.

"Han Qingzi, you are no match for Shu Huan. I advise you to get out of here as far as you can and never show up in front of us again."

Han Qingzi glared at Wu Zhuo angrily, "It's still unknown who will win or lose, don't be too proud too soon."

Wu Zhuo sneered, "No matter how hard you talk, you can't change your lonely situation. Get out of here now."

The heavy door slowly closed in front of Han Qingzi. Han Qingzi stood alone in front of the door for a long time, shook her stiff legs, and turned away.

Wu Zhuo returned to the living room and repeated his conversation with Han Qingzi to Shu Huan.

Shu Huan felt something was strange, "She left just because you asked her to?"

"Yeah, there's no evidence. She has no other choice but to lose her temper and walk away in shame."

Han Yun said sharply, "She can't leave so easily. The only explanation is that she has achieved her goal."

Shu Huan encouraged Han Yun, "Tell me about it."

Han Yun, "I can't figure out what her purpose is, but it's definitely not good for us."

The six people fell silent at the same time. Shu Huan subconsciously took out the reversing mirror and found that it was foggy again.

"It's a mirage pearl."

Upon hearing this, Ling Wangjin immediately transformed into his original form and flew straight to the dome, where he suddenly saw four little winged men carrying mirage pearls and embedding them into the grooves on the mural on the dome.

"Found it!" Ling Wangjin shouted loudly to the people below, and at the same time, he moved as fast as lightning, grabbing the four little men with one hand and falling back to the living room with the mirage pearl in the other hand.

Shu Huan bought four small bird cages in the mall and put the four little men in them separately.

Wu Zhuo picked up the Mirage Pearl, folded his fingers and then spread them out again, but the Mirage Pearl had been burned to ashes.

"Who is helping Han Qingzi?" Mu Heng was puzzled.

From the outside, Han Qingzi didn't seem to have a beastly husband and no friends, but it was such a person who could actually find a way to stuff another mirage pearl in immediately after they destroyed one. It was really strange.

Shu Huan used a reverse camera to track Han Qingzi, but found that he couldn't track her at all, which made Shu Huan feel uneasy.

Yaojia pointed at the bird cage and said, "These four little people look very much like Master Lishi."

“But they have wings.”

Ling Wangjin poked the bars of the cage with his fingers, and the little man kept baring his teeth at him.

"Are you Lord Lishi?" Ling Wangjin asked the little man.

The little man opened his mouth to spit, but was sprayed coldly by Da Xishuang.

Da Xishuang, who had just returned from playing with Wu Lie, came over skipping and jumping.

"This is not Lord Lishi, this is an elf, who usually only serves the high priest."

"How do you know?" Wu Zhuo suspected that Da Xishuang was pretending to know.

Da Xishuang said proudly, "Because I am the all-knowing Golden Phoenix."

Wu Lie said, "Da Xishuang is right. I've seen Xuan Ji with this thing before."

Da Xishuang raised his chin and said, "Well, I was right, wasn't I?"

"But why did Xuan Ji do this?"

Wu Lie shook his head. He couldn't answer Han Yun's question.

Shu Huan said, "The elves alone are not enough to determine that it was Xuan Ji who did it. It should be said that anyone who is the high priest could be the one who did it."

Yaojia added, "It also includes the high priest who was just forced to step down."

Maya and Shu Huan have some friendship, but Shu Huan did not favor her, but let Xuan Ji replace her, so Maya has enough reasons to want to deal with Shu Huan.

"Where is Maya?" Mu Heng asked Wu Zhuo.

Wu Zhuo felt guilty, and Shu Huan frowned when he saw this.

"Wu Zhuo, tell the truth."

After the duel between Maya and Xuan Ji ended, Shu Huan and his party returned to the castle first. Wu Zhuo was fully responsible for the aftermath. He wouldn't act recklessly as soon as he became the city lord, right?

The four beastly husbands looked at Wu Zhuo unkindly.

Wu Zhuo clasped his hands together and begged for mercy, "Yu Ting begged me to give him Maya. In exchange, he will give me half of the commission from Ascension."

"Doesn't Yu Ting hate Maya? Why did he come to you specifically for Maya?"

Wu Zhuo shook his head, "I don't know."

Afraid that everyone would not believe him, Wu Zhuo pointed to the sky and swore, "Every word I said is true."

Mu Heng sneered, "Yao Jia gave all the IOUs from Qi Shengtian to his wife, but his wife asked the five of us to split it equally.

And you, trading with others without your wife's knowledge, if we hadn't asked, would you not have told us at all?"

Wu Lie agreed, "Wu Zhuo is like this, selfish and self-centered, always thinking only of himself. If you become a family with him, sooner or later he will scheme against you until nothing remains."

Shu Huan looked at Wu Zhuo coldly, who was bowing his head and saying nothing. "What do you have to say?"

Wu Zhuo rushed over and knocked Wu Lie unconscious with a punch, then picked him up and threw him into a cage in the utility room. He came back and knelt at Shu Huan's feet, speaking in a sincere tone.

“You left after Xuan Ji won, and I had the honor of seeing the Sea Yaksha she summoned up close. There was a stone emitting blue light hanging around its neck, which was very similar to the blue light in the cave where Wei Yun was found.

Yu Ting told me that the stone was made of blue tears from the sea. I asked him what the sea was, and he said it was salt water that stretched as far as the eye could see.

He also said that there was a mermaid princess in the sea, and when the princess shed tears, they would turn into pearls, and the princess' tears were rare treasures. I showed him a pearl that was made from your tears, and he said... "This is the princess' tears."

Shu Huan is actually a mermaid princess from the sea?! The four beastly husbands, including Da Xishuang, were all shocked.

Shu Huan looked calm, "What does this have to do with the deal you made with Yu Ting?"

Wu Zhuo sniffed, "He said that the mermaid princess is a treasure, and everyone wants her, so I want to become strong, strong enough to protect you from any harm."

Shu Huan lowered her eyes and looked at Wu Zhuo, who had a sincere face. It was hard for her to believe that the person in front of her was the Wu Zhuo she was familiar with, who was vicious and cruel by nature.

"It's better for everyone to become stronger together than for you to become stronger alone. Aren't you really just making excuses for your greed?"

Wu Zhuo shook his head. "I will fight for you, but they are different from me. They want to accompany you until old age."

"You mean you're willing to die for me anytime, anywhere?"

Wu Zhuo nodded.

Shu Huan sighed, "Why do you think so?"

"Because my family doesn't care about me and I have no ties, death is not scary to me."

Shu Huan took Wu Zhuo's hand and placed it on her lower abdomen.

"Aren't my children your family?"

Han Yun sneered, "He is a selfish person. How can he treat a child who is not his own as a family member?"

Shu Huan didn't continue talking to Wu Zhuo, but asked Da Xishuang to capture Yu Ting.

Yu Ting was grabbed by Da Xishuang and flew to the castle, where he was thrown in front of Shu Huan with his clothes in disarray.

Shu Huan raised his foot and kicked Yu Ting, who was lying on the ground pretending to be dead, "Why did you let Wu Zhuo give Maya to you?"

Yu Ting sat up from the ground and rolled his eyes at Shu Huan in anger.

"I'm used to fucking her, isn't that okay?"

"He lied..." Da Xishuang said loudly, "The Jade Cage is reopening today, and the gimmick is to taste the taste of the high priest."
