By the time the Qilin Ancestor hurried over from the royal court, most of the poison in Qi Qiaosong's body had been removed.

The reason why there is still a small part left is not because the dragon clan's detoxification ability is not good, but because if this thing is completely detoxified, it will be difficult to explain to the Qilin clan.

In the Dragon Embassy, ​​after confirming that the little Qilin was safe and not in danger, he breathed a sigh of relief.

In any case, as long as nothing happens to the heir, everything can be salvaged.

As for Qi Qiaoan and Qi Yingzhu, these two "culprits" were taken away by people sent by the Queen before the arrival of the Qilin Patriarch.

The reason was very simple: the queen was afraid that the two men would be slapped to death by the furious Kirin Ancestor.

Qi Qiaoan took the blame and looked as if he had lost his parents. He completely lost the desire to speak.

Qi Yingzhu still wanted to try hard, and kept giving Long Long a pitiful look, begging her fiancé to help her brother-in-law.

Long Long could only pretend not to see it: Your mother took you back, could she possibly harm you?

Back to the topic, Kirin Patriarch checked Qi Qiaosong's physical condition and found that although he had eliminated most of the toxins and woke up, he had become timid. Even if there was the slightest movement around him, he would quickly pull up the quilt to cover himself - he was clearly scared.

When they wanted to inquire about the responsibility, they found that not only Long Long and Long Hu were gone, but even Qi Qiaoan and Qi Yingzhu were nowhere to be seen.

"The Longlong Dragon Fox was too frightened and is currently recuperating in the backyard." Qin Beiwang said hesitantly, "As for the two princes..."

Seeing that he was hesitant to speak, Qilin Patriarch became impatient:

"Where are the two princes? With such an urgent matter happening, shouldn't you take the initiative to come to me and explain something?"

"Ahem." Qin Beiwang followed Long Long's instructions and kept everyone in suspense. Then he said with an embarrassed look, "The royal court sent someone to pick them up. It's not easy for my dragon clan to stop them."

"This is outrageous!" The Qilin Ancestor was furious.

Not to mention that Qi Qiaosong is not dead. Even if something really happened, wouldn't your first reaction be to give an explanation to the Qilin clan, but to immediately find ways to evade responsibility?

Originally, he did not want to bring disaster to the White Tiger Clan because of this matter, but seeing that Queen Lu Ya was so arrogant and unreasonable in protecting her children, the Qilin Patriarch decided that he must teach her a lesson.

Returning to the royal court angrily, the Qilin Patriarch had just arrived at the top floor of the Shenlong Tower when he saw Queen Lu Ya standing there expressionlessly, and instructed Qi Qiaoan beside her:

"Why don't you kneel down and apologize!"

Qi Qiaoan immediately knelt on the ground and said in tears:

"The sinner Qi Qiaoan pays homage to the ancestor."

Then, he told the Qilin Patriarch everything in detail:

"...When I saw my brother leaning out of the gap at the top of the tower, I suddenly got possessed and wanted to play a joke on him."

"I thought my brother's physical strength was such that he would be fine even if he fell from the tower. Who could have imagined that there was an assassin lurking outside and took the opportunity to shoot my brother in the chest with a crossbow..."

"...Qi Qiaoan knew his crime was unforgivable, and he did not make any more excuses. He was only willing to pay for his brother's life."

"Hmph." The Qilin Ancestor snorted coldly. He could see that Qi Qiaoan, who was in tears and repenting at this moment, was obviously captured by Queen Lu Ya and tortured in advance.

The so-called "willing to pay for my brother's life", Qi Qiaosong is not dead, why should I ask you to pay for your life? You are good at saying nice things!

However, Queen Lu Ya also reminded him of one thing: Qi Qiaosong's real fatal injury was not caused by Qi Qiaoan pushing him down.

When Qin Beiwang arrived at the embassy, ​​he also briefly explained to him that the little Qilin was pushed off the tower and fell into a coma after being shot in the chest by an arrow. The arrow also contained a deadly poison... At that time, he subconsciously thought that Qi Qiaoan had ill intentions, but now he thinks that something is indeed wrong.

Pushing his brother down to vent his anger is something the daring Qi Qiaoan would do, but killing his brother with a poisoned crossbow arrow would not be so cruel as to make him lose his mind, become possessed by a demon, and have his mind no longer clear.

Considering that the little Qilin lunged forward and was shot in the chest, the Qilin Patriarch guessed that the real assassin was someone else.

So he first reprimanded Qi Qiaoan severely, then hurriedly left the Shenlong Tower and went to the Dragon Embassy again to inquire about the situation.

In the end, it was still the clan leader Qin Beiwang who came to receive them. The Qilin Patriarch felt that something was wrong and asked again:

"Where are Long Long and Long Hu? I have some questions to ask them."

Qin Beiwang silently estimated the time, thinking that they had probably left the imperial capital by now, and said with an embarrassed smile:

"The situation in the imperial capital is complicated. There have been two assassination cases within one month. I am worried about the safety of the two, so I asked them to return to Dongzhou first."

"Ah, this!" Qilin Patriarch was immediately speechless, and after a long while he said, "How can this be?!"

As soon as the question was asked, he immediately came to his senses.

The dragon clan has already predicted the current situation. In the future they will either stand on the side of Qilin and White Tiger or on the side of Black Tortoise.

Considering the interests of the family, they must wait for the right price and negotiate enough bargaining chips before calmly joining the party with the highest bid... They are also worried that if they stay in the imperial capital for a long time, they will be kidnapped by Qilin and forced to form an alliance directly!

It is definitely impossible to say that the Qilin Ancestor did not have this idea. After all, he represents the interests of the Qilin clan, so of course he would use any means necessary.

But before he could carry out this method, the other party predicted his plan and chose to run away without any courtesy, which made the Qilin Ancestor feel humiliated and unhappy.

Therefore, he was too lazy to say more to Qin Beiwang. He just went out and cast a spell to rise into the air, flying quickly towards the east!

After flying for several miles in the air, the Qilin Ancestor landed on the field and stomped the ground with his right foot.

Soon, an old man popped his head out from underground and said with a smile:

"What does the Qilin Immortal want?"

"Did you see the dragons passing through here not long ago?" the Qilin Patriarch asked directly.

"I've seen it." The old man was slightly startled, then he raised his withered cane and pointed to the right, saying, "A quarter of an hour ago, it flew over there quickly from two miles away using magic."

After roughly estimating the direction, Ancestor Qilin confirmed that Long Long and his companions did not intend to return to Dongzhou directly, but would take a detour to the border of Beizhou... Could it be that the Xuanwu clan had someone to pick them up at the border?

Thinking of this, his face became even gloomier, and he quickly flew in the direction the old man pointed.

Although the Dragon Clan's Great Elder Qin Chaocang has great magical powers, his speed is not as good as his own.

After calculating the time, speed and distance difference again, Kirin Patriarch became more and more certain that he would be able to catch up with the other party before they reached the border!
