Seeing Lu Hongyi frowning slightly, Chen An knew what Lu Hongyi was worried about and said with a smile: "Just eat and don't worry. Since your plan has failed, it's up to me now!"
Lu Hongyi glanced at Chen An and reached out to take the wine jar in front of Chen An.
Chen An glared: "This is not Guyuan wine, drink your Guyuan wine."
Lu Hongyi said unhappily, "Do you really think I'm a weak woman?"
Lu Hongyi took the wine right under Chen An's nose and started drinking.
Chen An was helpless. This woman... just wouldn't listen!
Alas, fate!
I wish I could train this woman into a caring wife!
Thinking in his heart, Chen An looked at Lu Hongyi after he had eaten and drunk his fill: "Do you want to find the murderer behind the scenes, or let me live in peace and participate in the coronation ceremony!"
"First, I want you to be safe until the coronation ceremony. Second, these people in the dark will eventually become a threat to you. Especially if you place in the top three in the coronation ceremony, you will be the center of attention. I'm afraid those people in the dark will only focus on you!"
"Then why did you let me participate? You are really cheating me!" Chen An was a little depressed.
According to his idea, he should get the Mother-and-Child Flower and the Soul-Shaping Grass as soon as possible, and not care about the coronation ceremony. He should go back to live a good life and wait for the birth of the child. That is the real thing!
Lu Hongyi glared at Chen An and said, "The Fengshen Sect is relying on you. If you don't show some strength, the Fengshen Sect will be wiped out!"
"Depend on me... uh, that's right, I'm about to become the head of the sect. Alas, with great power comes great responsibility!"
Chen An showed an arrogant look: "With this master here, who dares to destroy my Fengshen Sect!"
Lu Hongyi took a big gulp of wine to suppress the anger that wanted to beat up this kid.
She glared at Chen An and said, "You're the leader now. Do you think I'm dead?"
Chen An laughed dryly and said, "Didn't you promise me that if I got into the top three, the position of the headmaster would be given to me? I just want to get a feel for the headmaster's style in advance so that I won't be unfamiliar with it later!"
Lu Hongyi was speechless!
This kid really thinks the position of the headmaster is his!
Lu Hongyi didn't want to talk and took another sip of wine in a depressed mood.
Chen An was now a bit more serious: "Wife, tell me what happened during the days I slept. Please tell me in detail!"
Lu Hongyi was quite obedient this time and told Chen An everything that happened before and after.
…
After hearing this, Chen An frowned and said, "I have a question. You asked Liu Hu to kill someone just to lure out the person in the dark. How did you know there was someone in the dark? How did you know this person would report to the Li family?"
Chen An looked at Lu Hongyi, not quite understanding Lu Hongyi's inference.
Lu Hongyi said, "Back then, Master gave me a large amount of holy medicine, which caused me to fall into a deep sleep for ten thousand years. As a result, my soul power has surpassed my realm by a great margin. Even if someone stronger than me hides around, it will be difficult for me to sense them!"
Chen An looked at Lu Hongyi. No wonder this woman had such strong fighting ability even though she had just entered the holy realm.
If she wasn't pregnant, even the God King would have killed her!
Well, it’s still a little worse than mine!
Chen An said seriously: "What else?"
"The people who are secretly spying on me are doing this for you. They killed the younger generation of the Ji family for two reasons: first, revenge, and second, to destroy the future of the Ji family. If they knew that I ordered Liu Hu to kill Li Bushi, these secret forces would find a way to promote a confrontation between the Li and Ji families. This is exactly what they want!"
Chen An's eyes were bright, and he smiled: "Wife, I always thought you were a reckless woman, but I didn't expect you to be quite smart!"
Lu Hongyi said unhappily, "You're the only one who's smart!"
Chen An didn't take it seriously and said, "Okay, I know what happened. Now, I'll take over. You stay here and let Liu Hu and Huang Ji guard here!"
"What are you doing here? Let them follow you. The people in the dark are obviously targeting you!"
Chen An became serious. "No, they're also targeting our child. Right after you left, someone sneaked in and put a bottle of poison called 'extinction of offspring'. It's truly vicious. Not only am I in danger, you're in danger too!"
Lu Hongyi frowned: "Are they doing this to vent their anger or do they have other motives?"
Chen An frowned and said, "I originally suspected that it was someone from the Li family, but now it seems that it is not someone from the Li family!"
"Are you so sure?"
"That's right, Tu An's words are very convincing. It seems that he really saw Liu Hu killing someone, or even following him. If he is from the Li family, how could he watch Li Bushi being killed? Why not just catch him red-handed? The Li family can also use this as an excuse to make trouble!"
After saying this, Chen An said with certainty: "So, he is definitely not from the Li family!"
Chen An took a sip of wine, looked at Lu Hongyi, and said, "Besides the two possibilities you just mentioned, there is a third possibility!"
"What?"
"They don't want the Ji family to participate in the King's Crowning Ceremony. The three Ji family members who died before were all qualified to participate in the King's Crowning Ceremony. But this Ji Sheng died right after arriving. He also came to participate in the King's Crowning Ceremony, but he died right after arriving. These things are enough to show that this dark force does not want the Ji family to participate in the King's Crowning Ceremony and does not give the Ji family any possibility of increasing their status in the polar region!"
After saying that, Chen An took a deep breath and felt a little uneasy.
After all, he was seriously aware that he was in danger.
However, Lu Hongyi suddenly said, "Then why haven't you been assassinated after being here for so long?"
Chen An was stunned for a moment, then said seriously: "I guess I'm too strong, they don't dare to attack me!"
