To everyone's surprise, Hui Nuan Pavilion was completely dark, and even the corridor lights in the inner courtyard were not lit.
Shang Beiyu scanned the entire courtyard with his divine sense, his brows furrowing immediately. He raised an eyebrow in surprise: "You little rascal, you ran away again?"
Xie Si licked his back teeth, and Shang Beiyu raised his mouth high in displeasure.
Well, it's not good that his little guy is so attached to that mortal prince.
He needs to find a way to bring her back and cultivate a relationship with her.
I want to ask Xiaojianzi to handle this matter.
After walking a few steps toward the palace, he remembered that Little Cocoon had obeyed his orders and led a large group of people to follow and kill the Ninth Prince during the day.
Li Yu (the tall, thin man in black mentioned earlier) was also sent by him to Xidan to cause trouble, and he probably won't return until the Northwest Warriors' campaign is over.
"I never expected to meet the little guy here. I still don't have enough capable people around me." Shang Beiyu shook his head and smiled bitterly, then muttered to himself, "I wonder where Shang Xie's demon shell is. If I can find him and train him properly, he'll be perfect for my use."
We arrived at the highest point in Kyoto.
As the chilly night wind of early spring blew, and he looked down upon the bustling lights of Kyoto, surveying the mortal world that was utterly vulnerable to his attacks, Shang Beiyu felt utterly bored.
"Forget it, I'll go find the little guy myself. The Ninth Prince has provoked too many little fleas this time. Maybe I can pull off a classic hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress drama for the little guy." Shang Beiyu smiled sweetly.
Finding the new idea intriguing, he turned and stepped onto a flying sword, his robes fluttering as he soared into the night sky.
In a small village called Maijia Village.
Ji Fengyao and her group finally met up with Shang Xiye, Wuying, Wuhen, and Wuzhong, who had disguised themselves, in an ordinary farmhouse courtyard.
Upon seeing Ji Fengyao, Shang Xiye anxiously grabbed her and looked her up and down, showing no disgust at her current dark and ugly male attire: "Yaoyao, were you alright on the road? Did you encounter any danger?"
“We’re all dressed up like this, so there’s definitely no danger,” Ji Fengyao said with a grin, skipping and twirling in front of Shang Xiye to prove she was alright.
Xi Que, beaming with excitement, said, "Young Master, Brother Wuhen, you don't know, Chen Xiaoyi and his gang of idiots thought we were here to kill you too, and they wouldn't even let their men argue with us!"
"Father, Fengming, Heixiao, why are you here too?" Shang Xiye rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache. This time, he was really going to fight in the Northwest.
Given the nature of Ji Chenhai and his son, if they were to go to the battlefield...
The consequences were predictable.
"So many people want to kill you, and we don't come? Are we even human?" Ji Fengming patted his chest and put his hand on Shang Xiye's shoulder: "Brother-in-law, don't worry. With me, Xiao Chen, and Father here, I guarantee that no matter how many waves those people come from, they will all be gone!"
Ji Chenhai also said, "Yes, son-in-law, we are family. We will definitely not let you bear the danger and difficulties alone. It's late at night. Everyone has been traveling all day. Let's all rest early. We can talk about it on the road tomorrow."
The group was going inside.
Suddenly, Shang Xiye felt another chill run down his spine, and he and Ji Fengyao tacitly pushed the crowd aside, saying, "Make way!"
"Bang!"
As soon as the group dispersed, a bolt of dark purple lightning struck, splitting the ground where they had been standing into a crater the size of a small bowl.
Xique stared at the pit, somewhat numb: "Miss, young master, this is the fifth time."
