Su Xiaoxiao nodded solemnly: "I have some friendship with the lady of Qianji Pavilion. I will go to her right away without further delay. Tianyu Hall..."

"I'll go."

The palace master's voice suddenly appeared behind Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Qing.

The two of them turned around and looked at her in the night.

"mother."

"Palace Master."

The two greeted each other.

The Palace Master had expended a large amount of his internal energy to nourish Ghost Princess's tendons and veins, and he looked somewhat haggard.

Su Xiaoxiao walked quickly to her and looked at her distressedly: "Mom."

Gong moved his lips and said, "Mom is fine. I heard what you just said. I will go find Ji Minglou."

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment and said, "Mom, why don't I go find Master Ji and you go see Madam Lou."

The palace master touched the top of her head and said, "You can't persuade him."

Wei Qing was not aware of the relationship between the Palace Master and Ji Minglou, but he vaguely guessed that there was something unusual.

Wei Qing said: "Palace Master, I will go with you."

The palace master looked at her steadily and said, "You stay here. Your talents should be used where they should be used."

For the first time, Wei Qing saw the trust and respect of a man of great talent in his eyes.

He immediately cupped his hands, bowed, and saluted: "Junior, I obey your command!"

The palace lady looked at the boundless night. The breeze blew past, shaking her purple skirt.

"I have never been out of Qianshan Island. If Baihua Palace can survive this disaster, will you take me out of the island to have a look?"

…

It's late at night and everyone is asleep.

The saint carried Su Xiaoxiao on her back, rising and falling on the roof as light as a swallow.

The cold wind was howling.

The strange thing is that Su Xiaoxiao, who had been tossing and turning in bed and couldn't fall asleep, actually felt a little sleepy at this moment.

No wonder Wei Xiaobao always needs to be rocked to sleep...

As soon as the thought flashed through his mind, Su Xiaoxiao lay on the saint's back, drooling and falling asleep.

The saint slowed down her steps.

When we arrived at Qianji Pavilion, a shadow happened to come out from the side door of Qianji Pavilion.

The saint tiptoed and jumped onto a big tree carrying the sleeping Su Xiaoxiao on her back.

Shadow seemed to have sensed something and raised his head alertly.

A crow flapped its wings and flew away from the branch.

“It turned out to be a bird.”

Shadow left without looking back.

When the shadows completely faded away, the five tigers disguised as crows flew back to the tree branches and said to the Saint who had blended into the night: "Chiya-chiya!"

It's right to let you wear black clothes! The Saint hates black clothes. -After Lou Bufan passed away, his eldest son inherited the position of Pavilion Master, and his eldest daughter-in-law became the new Pavilion Master's wife.

Mrs. Lou had just laid down for a while, her eyes slightly closed, and she said calmly: "Since you are here, why don't you show up?"

Knock, knock, knock! The Five Tigers knocked politely on the door with their beaks... no, knocked on the window.

Mrs. Lou: "Come in."

The saint opened the window and jumped in with Su Xiaoxiao on her back.

The five tigers also flapped their wings and flew in.

Madam Lou recognized this puppet and guessed who was on its back. As for the extra little crow, she didn't care.

What responded to Mrs. Lou was a series of even breathing sounds.

Mrs. Lou: “…”

It was already daybreak when Su Xiaoxiao woke up.

She rubbed her eyes and sat up with a start.

"woke up?"

Mrs. Lou's cold voice came from the side, "Is my bed still ok to sleep in?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded hesitantly: "Good sleep."

Mrs. Lou: “…”

Su Xiaoxiao cleared her throat, threw back the quilt and got out of bed, smiling, "You are so polite, you just woke me up and let me sleep all night."

Mrs. Lou, don’t you want to scream?

It's a certain puppet that won't let you shout! Madam Lou said indifferently, "Madam Second Young Master, I seem to have mentioned to you that the deal between us has already ended and we no longer have any connection."

Su Xiaoxiao said: "I am not here to make a deal with Madam Tai this time. I am doing her a favor because we have done business before."

Madam Lou said, "Don't put it so nicely. It's not certain who is doing the favor."

Ginger is spicier when it’s older.

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, "The city lord had already appointed an heir before the accident, and that person was not Xiahou Yi."

Mrs. Lou's expression didn't change much.

Su Xiaoxiao was not surprised. It would be unreasonable if these shrewd people could not guess that Xiahou Yi usurped the throne.

However, they don’t care whether Xiahou Qing or Xiahou Yi is the city lord as long as it does not harm their own interests.

Madam Lou said calmly, "The position of Pavilion Master has already been handed over to my son. He has his own decision on the affairs of Qianji Pavilion. It's useless for you to look for me."

Su Xiaoxiao said, "What if... the Assassin's Alliance, the Hundred Flowers Palace, and the Heavenly Jade Hall all support a new city lord at the same time? Madam, do you think that with the strength of the Thousand Machines Pavilion, it can deal with the three major sects?"

Madam Lou sneered, "Girl, do you think this is my first day in the martial arts world? If you really have three major sects behind you, do you still need to come to me?"

Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, "To tell you the truth, I am here to remind you because of the killing of the slave. Otherwise, what does the life and death of Qianji Pavilion have to do with me? My elder brother is the next city lord. After dealing with Xiahou Yi, he will reward those who deserve rewards and kill those who deserve to be killed. Without Qianji Pavilion on the island, there are many sects that want to replace it. That's all I have to say, Madam, take care of yourself!"

Madam Lou narrowed her eyes, looked at her back without turning back, and said, "I will give you two days at most. Tomorrow at twilight hour, if you can't get reinforcements from the Assassin's Alliance, you should prepare a coffin for yourself."

Su Xiaoxiao paused.

So, Xiahou Yi will launch an attack on Baihua Palace at 5 p.m. tomorrow? Wei Ting, you must succeed. - After a whole night of bumpy ride, Manager Chang was almost dead.

Finally, they arrived at the foot of the Killer Alliance.

The Killer Alliance has stepped up its vigilance in recent days and sent many disciples to guard the foot of the mountain.

But after Xiahou Yi became the city lord, he simply placed Chang Guanshi under house arrest but did not remove him from his position.

When Manager Chang showed the token of the chief manager of the City Lord's Mansion, the disciples of the Killer Alliance immediately took him and Canglang up the mountain.

On the other side, Wei Ting and his group were not so lucky.

Several people stood at the foot of the mountain in the cold wind, looking at the thorny cliffs, and felt a deep breath of death.

Wei Liulang's mouth twitched: "No way... How wary are they of us?"

Gui Bu asked, "Did you go up from here last time?"

Wei Liulang nodded: "Yes, climb up from here, and then carry Su Xuan down from here."

But now I can't climb anymore. The mountain walls are covered with thorns, more than ten feet high. Before I can climb halfway, only bones are left.

Ling Yun said: "Then go through the main entrance."
