Backyard of the Inn
The icy blade pierced the wind, sending cherry blossoms scattering like falling petals as invisible energy radiated outwards. Sword-like brows and eagle-like eyes swept across the surroundings, creating a heavy, oppressive feeling.
The natural imperial aura is captivating, just like a circling dragon suddenly rushing into the sky, bound to dominate the sky.
This was what Zhou Nian saw when he entered the backyard. He was undoubtedly proud of it because that was the person he vowed to follow and be loyal to for the rest of his life.
After Huangfu Lingao stopped, Zhou Nian walked in with Zhao Chi behind him: "Your Highness, Zhao Chi is back"
Zhao Chi stepped forward and saluted, saying, "Your Highness, I will follow your instructions and safely escort the Second and Fourth Princes of Yunlang Nation to Moshi Pass... This is the letter from the Second Prince of Yunlang Nation."
Zhao Chi said this and took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Huangfu Lingao.
Huangfu Lingao handed the letter directly to Zhou Nian. In the letter, Bai Ziche first expressed his gratitude to Huangfu Lingao for his help, and then told Huangfu Lingao about the two attacks.
Finally, he reiterated his speculation about the Three Kingdoms and the people in the martial arts world who surrounded Mount Qishan.
After reading the letter, Zhou Nian said, "Your Highness, the Second Prince of Yunlang Kingdom's opinion on this matter is basically the same as what we guessed.
Instigating the three major countries and the underworld gangs to besiege Mount Qishan is not only an attempt to cause us to kill each other so that they can reap the benefits, but also has the purpose of trapping Sheng Yuan in the siege of Yunlang and Tianqing.
Although the death of the Crown Prince of Tianqing Kingdom in Mount Qishan is involved, it is not impossible for Tianqing to take advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.
Fortunately, Second Prince Yunlang promised in his letter that Yunlang Nation would not be involved. Furthermore, he was willing to step forward and help explain if necessary.
The letter only mentioned that they had been attacked twice, once by Qingsi Tower, the second-ranked killer organization in the world, and once by Pluto Pavilion, the first-ranked one.
I've heard of this Qingsi Tower, but according to reports, it's been destroyed by the Pluto Pavilion today. And Lady Nine is nowhere to be found.
As for the Pluto Pavilion, it is even more mysterious. If it weren't for the failed assassination attempt on Bai Ziche that year, the Emperor of Yunlang Kingdom would have ordered an indefinite hunt.
I'm afraid that few people in the world know about the situation, but even so, Pluto's Pavilion has not been wiped out after several years.
The Pluto Pavilion showed no signs of actively attacking back. According to His Highness Bai Er, the Pluto Pavilion was not being sold, but was taking action on their own to kill them.
I don't think that Hades killed the two princes because he couldn't stand the pursuit of the Yunlang Kingdom.
After all, when the Pluto Pavilion's power was wiped out in one fell swoop within the Cloud Wolf Nation, Pluto didn't seek revenge."
Huangfu Lingao listened to Zhou Nian's analysis and said, "Of course it's not a personal grudge. If it was, why would they wait until this time? If it's not a personal grudge, then it must be for someone else.
Someone wants to kill them both, but who can persuade the Pluto Pavilion Master to do it himself? Huangfu Lingao paused and asked, "Are there any people from the Pluto Pavilion on this trip to Mount Qi?"
Zhou Nian thought about it and shook his head: "I haven't seen him, so he probably didn't go..." An idea flashed before Zhou Nian's eyes: "Your Highness, could it be the black-clothed and masked figure who appeared last on Mount Qishan?
I have heard that the Lord of Pluto Pavilion occasionally wears a mask when traveling, but this is different from the Lord of the Ghost City Posha City who wears a mask with a face like an evil ghost.
Hades is so charming and evil in appearance that he can bewitch people's minds. If he were not wearing a mask, countless men and women in the world would be attracted to him.
Wasn't it for this very reason that Ninth Lady's Qingsi Tower was destroyed? This is what they call a male beauty bringing disaster."
"The military advisor is indeed knowledgeable and has a strong memory," Po Sha said sarcastically, but the coldness in his words pierced Zhou Nian's body like a blade in a cold pond.
Zhou Nian suddenly looked a little embarrassed. He touched his nose and glanced at Po Sha, but saw that he had already turned away. Zhou Nian opened his mouth, but in the end, he said nothing.
And continued discussing with Huangfu Lingao.
Huangfu Lingao glanced at the two of them calmly and said, "That shouldn't be the case. The last people who appeared on Mount Qishan were more like soldiers than assassins.
Moreover, although the leader is very skilled in martial arts, he has not yet reached the top level. At the very least, he is still a little worse than the Pluto who swept the entire martial arts world at the age of sixteen.
However, this doesn't mean Pluto wasn't there at the time. I have a feeling that no matter where Pluto was, he definitely wasn't isolated from this matter."
"Your Highness, do you think that Hades is also going for the Demon Sword and the Soul-Separation Pill, or is there some other reason?" Zhou Nian asked.
Huangfu Lingao frowned: "He was able to follow us secretly without any of us noticing, and then wait for an opportunity to assassinate Bai Ziyu and Bai Ziyu. No matter how you look at it, it's not that simple.
And the last person who appeared only showed up after we fought with the woman in red, and had been hiding in the dark before that.
In other words, the events at that time were beyond their expectations, forcing them to expose themselves.”
Zhou Nian couldn't help but say, "Your Highness, if that's the case, coupled with the assassination of the two princes of the Cloud Wolf Nation, I believe there must be a significant connection between the group of men in black, the Pluto Pavilion Master, or even the mastermind behind the scenes."
Zhao Chi, who had been listening nearby and was so frightened that he dared not even breathe, could not help but ask, "But the Pluto Pavilion is ultimately just a killer organization that deals in murder.
What good would it do him to stir up chaos in the world?"
Huangfu Lingao's face was filled with coldness.
Zhou Nian narrowed his eyes and said slowly, "That means this Pluto Pavilion is not just a business of killing people!"
