Chapter 251 The Princess's Troubles
"Big brother, second brother, just listen to my advice. That little Taoist priest is not someone you can easily mess with. Don't blame me for running away. Who wouldn't run away after seeing that sword? To be honest, even if it was our father who was chopped to death by him, I wouldn't have turned my head back!"
In the secret place where the Yin family was hiding, Yin Lao San gave earnest advice.
"Then..." The eldest brother Yin Ru raised his eyelids and glanced at him, "Is this the reason why you want to change your surname to Li?"
"No..." Yin Lao San said embarrassedly: "I just put forward a feasible suggestion, which means that we don't have to go down the same path to the end. No matter how powerful Lord Yin Di is, it is a thing of the past. Can't we find a new, less evil path to take?"
"You are too naive." The second brother Yin Shi shook his head and retorted, "You know nothing about Lord Yin Di's power. It's rare for someone to suppress his peers like him in a hundred years. You're really imagining to compare a little-known Taoist priest with Lord Yin Di."
Yin Lao San was about to cry, "You guys are the ones who have no idea about the power of the little Taoist priest!"
"Third brother, there's no need to say more." Yin Ru raised his hand and said, "I understand what you mean. If Deyun Temple is not easy to mess with, there is no need for us to fight to the death with them just for a business deal with Lord Canghai. We should try to avoid their edge. If it doesn't work... we can only bear the pain and cut our losses!"
"But... you really can't have the thought of relying on others. Why do we want to find Lord Yindi so hard? In addition to his strength, the most important thing is that he is the ancestor of our family. There is an unbreakable blood connection between us! This is incomparable to any other bond. Even if there is a strong man in this world who is not inferior to Lord Yindi, if you rely on him, can you guarantee that others will treat you like a nephew of the family?"
"Brother, what you said makes sense." Yin Lao San said weakly, "I don't have to be someone's grandson, I just want to explain the seriousness of the problem to you. Anyway, I can't withstand the sword of that little Taoist priest."
"Things have come to this..." Yin Shi frowned and said, "The twelve Xuanyin bodies that Lord Canghai wanted have been gathered, and the Jiyang boy who is the core of the formation is also in place. The Xuanyin formation can be activated at any time. That little Taoist priest wants us to release all these people, which is impossible!"
"Then I can only... bear with it."
After a long time, Yin Ru finally sighed.
"Choose the lesser of two evils." He said in a deep voice: "If it really doesn't work, we can only give up Youlanxuan. What about Wei Jiangli and the Flower City Conference? Let them go."
"But..." Yin Shi was a little entangled again, "We can hardly make ends meet down there... Our family business requires a lot of resources for the children's daily practice, and the daily expenses are huge. If it were just for food and drink, it would be fine if we could endure it. But we still owe the Dongliu Gang a debt. If it weren't for the income from this Huadu Conference... we would definitely not be able to pay it back. They are a bunch of ruthless people."
Yin Ru couldn't help but get angry, "Where did so many ruthless people come from?"
Yin Lao San interrupted at the right time and said, "If the people we meet are all ruthless people, maybe we should reflect on whether we are too weak."
Yin Ru and Yin Shi glared at him together.
Yin Lao San quickly shrank his neck and pretended nothing had happened.
"Since we have to offend someone anyway, let's just offend the weakest one." Yin Ru waved his hand and showed the courage of the head of the clan, "Ask the Dongliu Gang to extend the payment of the money for another three months. If they agree, everything will be fine. If they don't agree, hmph..."
Yin Shi and Yin Lao San looked at him sternly.
Then Yin Ru continued, "Then let's go hide somewhere else and avoid the limelight."
…
noon.
Deyun Temple.
Li Chu, Du Lanke and the fox girl sat on chairs, surrounding Wang Longqi in the middle, and held a three-person trial.
Wang Longqi hung his head and squatted in the middle with his hands on his head.
This guy went to a banquet at the Princess's Mansion yesterday and only came back at noon today. As soon as he came back, he had this weird expression on his face, and anyone who saw him would become suspicious.
Little Feilong hid far behind the corridor column and watched the scene.
In the past, whenever this kind of scene happened, it was always it that was interrogated. Today, it was finally someone else's turn, and it was extremely excited. If it hadn't just stolen food from the kitchen and felt guilty, it would definitely have gone up to join in the criticism.
"Are you going to confess yourself, or do you want us to ask?"
Lao Du smiled with his eyes curved, but in fact he exuded the aura of a veteran.
"I confess." Wang Longqi said in a low voice.
"Then confess." Lao Du said.
"I...what should I confess?" Wang Longqi was suddenly stunned.
"Let me remind you, ahem." Dulanke cleared his throat, "Last night..."
"last night……"
Wang Longqi raised his head, muttered some memories, and suddenly smiled with happiness.
"Um."
"really!"
"I'm just saying..."
The three of them understood instantly.
“No…” Wang Longqi waved his hands and stammered, “Some things…are not what you think, and I’m not that kind of person…”
"Is it smooth?" Lao Du asked suddenly.
"Very smooth." Wang Longqi answered subconsciously.
“…”
"Still making excuses!"
"You bastard!"
After a beating, Wang Longqi raised his hands repeatedly in surrender, and then said: "I didn't come here to talk about this, I have something more important to say."
"What's up?"
"Oh, forget it. I'll tell you everything." Wang Longqi thought for a while and said.
"Okay." Dulanke smiled evilly, "Tell me more about it."
Wang Longqi's face darkened: "It's not what you want to hear, it's really important."
Dulanke said, "Yes, what I want to hear is very important."
So Wang Longqi began to tell what had happened.
"We talked a lot yesterday, I won't go into details, anyway... it was the first time I realized there was a woman in the world who was so compatible with me. I think... this is probably true love... Oh my!"
After another round of fighting.
Wang Longqi continued, "After listening to her, I realized that the princess also had a lot of troubles. For example, her mother died shortly after she was born, and the fortune teller said that she was doomed to be alone. The old King of the East Sea did not love her at all and placed her in foster care for many years... but he still died."
"Her recent trouble is that she was targeted by a group of bad guys. The demon cultivator who suddenly appeared that day was probably someone else's plan to plot against her. Fortunately, I... and Li Chu showed up in time to save her."
"She is a princess. Who dares to deal with her?" the fox girl asked.
Wang Longqi lowered his voice and said, "I also raised this question."
"She said... that her relationship with the current King of the East Sea is very bad."
"Why?"
“Because…” Wang Longqi said, “Isn’t it said that she is doomed to be alone? In the East Sea Palace, her father, mother, brothers, sisters, and six husbands all died one after another in the early years. Only the current East Sea King, who should be her biological brother… is unharmed and alive and well.”
"Hiss." Dulanke's expression became subtle, "This is very intriguing..."
"So the current King of the East Sea probably wants her to disappear..." Wang Longqi scratched his head and said, "And the business she inherited from her previous husbands is now very big and has been targeted by competitors. In fact, she is still in need of help. I had a few glasses of wine at the time, and on impulse, I said... you help me, and I help you."
"You?" The fox girl was puzzled. "No matter how rich your family is, you can't help her, right?"
"It's not the rich second generation Wang Longqi who is going to help her."
Wang Longqi turned his gaze to Li Chu and gave a warm and innocent smile.
"It's Young Hero Wang Longqi."
Li Chu asked, "What does she want you to do for her?"
Meanwhile, Dulank asked, "What did you want her to do for you?"
As soon as he said this, he quickly turned his head to glance at his master and stuck out his tongue.
I was careless.
