Chapter 323: Mutual Probing
Daning, the Imperial Palace.
"call"
When Yan Luo, who was thousands of miles away, completely merged into the darkness and disappeared without a trace, Bai Youheng, who was sitting in a dark room, took a deep breath and slowly opened his eyes.
His face was pale and his expression was gloomy. After a long silence, he shook his head helplessly.
Although he was in the Daning Palace, he could still clearly see everything that happened tonight through the Eye of Yama.
First, Wei Changtian somehow tracked down Yan Luo's location and suddenly launched an attack.
Then, he used the three different beasts of fortune to instantly eliminate the "inner demon seeds".
Later, he learned the "Moon-Picking Sword Technique" that could hurt Yan Luo, as well as his own Heavenly Luck that was plundered. As the son of Heaven, Bai Youheng could not only see all the "divine beasts of luck", but also knew many secrets about "Heavenly Luck".
It was precisely because of this that he became even more puzzled by the various abilities Wei Changtian displayed tonight. He didn't even know whether he was lucky or unlucky.
Why? Why can Wei Changtian rob me of my luck?
How did he know the location of the Gu Diao? What about the sword technique called "Picking the Moon"?
“.”
Countless questions crowded in his mind, but Bai Youheng could not find the answer no matter how much he thought about it.
He sat on the mat for a while, then suddenly shouted, "Someone come!"
"Mr. Bai"
Soon, the door opened and a young eunuch walked in and bent over to ask, "What do you want me to do?"
"I want to see Ning Yongnian."
Bai Youheng narrowed his eyes and emphasized in a calm tone:
"Now."
A quarter of an hour later, Bai Youheng met Ning Yongnian who was still reviewing memorials in Shiqu Pavilion.
All the guards around withdrew, and the two of them sat opposite each other on either side of the table, with a thick pile of memorials in the middle.
"Your Majesty, it's about Wei Changtian."
Looking at Ning Yongnian who looked calm, Bai Youheng finally broke the silence first: "You seem to be hiding something from him."
"Um?"
Ning Yongnian smiled and asked back, "I don't know what Mr. Bai means by that."
"Your Majesty, since you and I are temporarily allies, it is too insincere for you to act like this."
Bai Youheng didn't seem to care that the person sitting opposite him was the Emperor of Daning. He just curled his lips and said sarcastically, "Wei Changtian can not only kill the second-rank, but also plunder the destiny of others. I think your Majesty probably already knows this."
“.”
The brush in his hand suddenly paused, Ning Yongnian suddenly raised his head and looked at Bai Youheng, and after a long while he smiled softly and said, "Mr. Bai, so your Gu Diao was also taken by Wei Changtian."
"yes."
Bai Youheng did not hide anything. He nodded and told the story that happened in Fengyuan tonight.
"Your Majesty, there is still more than a month until July 15th. If Wei Changtian comes a few more times, our plan will most likely fail."
"So, please don't hide anything about this boy any longer, lest you regret it when your efforts fail."
“.”
“Pah.”
The wolf-hair brush soaked in red ink was gently placed back on the pen holder. Ning Yongnian frowned and looked at Bai Youheng, who had a serious face, and asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Bai, you just said that there are three heavenly beasts hidden in Wei Changtian's body?"
"That's right."
Bai Youheng nodded: "Yingyu, Yunyan, Huanglong."
Bai Youheng deliberately emphasized the word "Huanglong", but Ning Yongnian did not show any anger or embarrassment when he heard it.
He just thought silently for a long time before he spoke again: "Mr. Bai, what else do you want to know about Wei Changtian?"
Dafeng, Princess Mansion.
Wang Qian is dead.
When Wei Changtian heard Chu Xianping say this, his emotions were naturally quite complicated.
He didn't know the specific process, but he thought the murderers must be the murderers sent by Pei Dajun.
Alas. After exchanging a glance with Chu Xianping, Wei Changtian was silent for a while and asked, "Where did the accident happen to them?"
"The Western Desert Gobi."
Chu Xianping quickly replied: "The exact location can only be known after the escorts from Shimen Escort Agency come back."
"Um."
Nodding, Wei Changtian turned and looked at Li Wutong.
"Princess, you heard it too."
"Please immediately order the nearby government offices to send personnel to search for the assassin and find the person based on the portrait."
"I see."
Although Li Wutong still didn't understand many things, he still nodded and said that he would do it.
As for Wei Changtian, "Brother Chu, Yan Luo suffered such a severe blow tonight. I'm sure he won't dare to show up for a few days at least."
"It just so happens that I'm a little worried about Old Zhang and Agou, so I'll take this opportunity to go there."
"You and my grandfather will stay in Fengyuan City. If there is any emergency, you can inform me."
“.”
It is obvious that Wei Changtian has decided to go and pick up Old Zhang in person.
Chu Xianping certainly had no objection to this, he just nodded and asked: "Sir, when are you going to leave?"
"Of course, the sooner the better."
Wei Changtian glanced at Li Wutong and said, "Pack up, we'll leave tonight."
"ah?"
Li Wutong was stunned by this. After looking around, he pointed at his nose and asked in confusion: "You, are you saying that I should go with you?"
"certainly."
Wei Changtian nodded as a matter of course: "If the local government offices find someone, they will definitely report to you, so you naturally have to follow me."
"oh"
Li Wutong blinked blankly, as if he hadn't come back to his senses yet: "Then, when are we leaving?"
"I'll give you an hour to prepare, and then we'll leave."
Wei Changtian ordered: "Hurry up, I won't wait for you."
"Oh oh oh, got it."
When Li Wutong heard that time was so tight, he agreed and immediately turned around and left.
But after she had walked about ten steps, she suddenly stopped and looked back, her face full of anger and dissatisfaction as if she had suddenly realized something.
That's not right!
How could he give me this order?! Why should I agree to him?!
The more Li Wutong thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong, so he thought about running back and having a good talk with Wei Changtian.
However, when she saw Wei Changtian frowning and discussing something seriously with Chu Xianping from afar, she unconsciously dismissed the idea.
Forget it, anyway, he also wanted to kill Yan Luo as soon as possible.
Humph! Although I won't bother with him this time, I will definitely get back at him next time! I am not someone you can easily bully! After quietly making up her mind, Li Wutong quickly walked away again, her black dress blending into the night.
At this time, Wei Changtian also turned his gaze to Chu Xianping.
His tone suddenly became extremely serious and his voice was lowered.
"Brother Chu, tell Tongzhouhui to check who Ning Yongnian has been in contact with recently. There is one person that we need to pay special attention to."
"Sir, who is this person?"
"Bai Youheng."
