After catching Athena, the old man in gray robe left quickly.
"Dong dong dong."
Two hours later, someone knocked on Athena's door. Athena entered the room after lunch and had taken a nap for too long.
"what happened?"
The maid who knocked on the door was confused.
"Your Highness, are you there?"
The maid knocked on the door again and asked.
When there was still no answer, the maid called several other people and knocked for the third time. The door was still tightly closed.
"Something's wrong, break the door open!"
The person who spoke was a young man in brocade robes. He was the Norman prince of the Shenguang Empire. He had good strength and a good status.
Qin Xuan will soon ascend the throne, and the Shenguang Empire must have important people coming over. Simply coming over as a princess, Athena, is not enough.
"Crunch."
The formation was destroyed and the door was quickly forced open.
"Her Royal Highness is not inside."
The two maids entered the room first to check. They found that no one was there, and the rest quickly entered the room.
"nobody."
A Martial Emperor from the Shenguang Empire said in a deep voice.
His consciousness carefully examined every corner of the room.
"Search the entire mansion immediately!"
The Norman prince looked gloomy.
"yes!"
Many strong men came from the Shenguang Empire, including three Martial Emperor-level masters. They conducted a comprehensive inspection of the entire mansion inside and out.
Naturally nothing was found.
"Your Highness, even a person with the level of Martial Emperor Perfection should not be able to sneak in silently and take Her Royal Highness away."
"Could it be Xiao Fan——"
One of the Martial Emperor-level experts questioned.
Prince Norman's face was gloomy, and he also suspected that it might be Xiao Fan.
If Xiao Fan wants to capture Athena, Zhuang Yan can do it easily.
"Get ready to drive, I, the prince, will pay a visit to Prince Qin Xuan!"
Prince Norman took a deep breath and said solemnly.
If he went to Xiao Fan directly, he estimated that Xiao Fan would definitely deny it, so he could only put pressure on Qin Xuan and let Qin Xuan communicate with Xiao Fan.
"yes!"
Half an hour later, Prince Norman arrived at the Prince's Mansion. Given his status, he naturally met Qin Xuan quickly.
"Prince Norman, I wonder why you came here?"
Qin Xuan asked.
Prince Norman frowned: "Prince Qin Xuan, your Shengjing City doesn't seem to be that safe. My little sister Athena actually disappeared in the mansion. I searched everywhere but couldn't find her."
"There are three Martial Emperor-level experts in our mansion, and the strongest one is the late Martial Emperor. In addition, there are powerful formations in our mansion."
"Prince Qin Xuan, I wonder if my little sister is missing under such circumstances, what kind of strong man could possibly capture her?"
Qin Xuan also frowned.
Prince Norman came over, obviously suspicious of Xiao Fan.
"Prince Norman, are you doubting Xiao Shidu?"
Qin Xuan said in a deep voice.
She felt unhappy that she actually suspected Xiao Fan.
Prince Norman shook his head: "I have no doubts about Xiao Shidu's intentions. I just came here to ask for help from you, Prince Qin Xuan."
"Athena is the princess of our Shenguang Empire. If something happens to her in Shengjing City, it may affect the diplomatic relations between our two countries."
Qin Xuan stood up: "Let's go and see Xiao Shidu."
Athena disappeared, and Qin Xuan believed that it could never be Xiao Fan's fault.
If the Norman prince disappeared, Qin Xuan felt that Xiao Fan was most likely responsible, but now it was Athena who was missing.
Athena is extremely good-looking, and catching a beauty like her would have a huge impact on her reputation if it were exposed.
Qin Xuan is confident in her relationship with Jiang Yuli and Xiao Fan. Xiao Fan will definitely not tarnish his reputation like this.
"good."
Prince Norman nodded.
Not long after, Qin Xuan and the others arrived outside Xiao Fan's courtyard. Jiang Yuli and the others were still practicing in Xiao Mansion, and Xiao Fan lived here.
"Boom!"
Qin Xuan's men stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Murong Die quickly opened the courtyard door.
"Greetings to Your Highness."
Seeing Qin Xuan, Murong Die quickly saluted.
Xiao Fan also walked towards the door.
"Your Highness."
Xiao Fan also bowed, and it was okay to hug him or kiss him in private, but now that it was a public occasion, the due etiquette was indispensable.
"Xiao Shidu, this is the Norman Prince of the Shenguang Empire. He is here for something."
Qin Xuan said.
Xiao Fan nodded: "Your Highness, Prince Norman, please come in."
Qin Xuan and the others entered the courtyard, Xiao Fan asked Qin Xuan and the others to sit down, and Murong Die and Murong Wu quickly served them tea.
"Your Highness, you don't know what's going on?"
Xiao Fan asked.
He was very surprised. Could it be that the Shenguang Empire felt that there was something wrong with the previous bet? But if that's the case, why didn't Athena come over?
Moreover, it is impossible to go back on a publicly certified bet.
Qin Xuan said: "Athena disappeared in the mansion. There are three Martial Emperors in their mansion. Prince Norman came to ask for help."
Xiao Fan quickly frowned.
It was a lie that Prince Norman asked for help, but it was true that he doubted him.
"Prince Norman, are you suspicious of me? Athena's disappearance has nothing to do with me. You are suspicious of the wrong person."
Xiao Fan said with a cold expression.
Prince Norman said solemnly: "You misunderstood. I just came here to ask for help. Athena is my sister. I am very worried about her disappearance. I hope Xiao Shidu can understand."
"This is Shengjing City. If something like this happens, if the news spreads, it will have an impact on Xiao Shidu's reputation."
Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows.
"Prince Norman, are you threatening me?"
The Norman prince shook his head: "Xiao Shidu, this prince is only telling a fact. If the news spreads, others will definitely doubt you."
The atmosphere between the two became much stronger.
Qin Xuan said in a deep voice: "Prince Norman, I believe that this matter was definitely not done by Xiao Shidu. Perhaps the enemy hopes to destroy the relationship between our Tianlong Empire and your Shenguang Empire."
"If Xiao Shidu wants to capture Athena, why should he be in Shengjing City?"
The Norman prince stood up.
He bowed to Xiao Fan: "Xiao Shidu, please help me. My little sister has a bet with you. If something happens to her, the bet will not go ahead."
Xiao Fan raised his eyebrows.
This is true.
If something happens to Athena, he won't be able to win the treasure from the Shenguang Empire.
"Xiao Shidu, maybe someone deliberately framed you in this matter."
Qin Xuan said to Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan nodded slightly.
"Little Lord."
Zhuang Yan's figure appeared, and he saluted Xiao Fan.
Xiao Fan said: "Zhuang Yan, you and Prince Norman go there. Athena is missing. See if you can find any clues."
"Yes, young master."
Prince Norman quickly left with Zhuang Yan.
Qin Xuan changed back to his original appearance.
"Xiao Fan, I feel that Athena's disappearance smells like a conspiracy. It's not good to catch Athena anywhere, but to catch her in Shengjing City."
"If you don't want to drive a wedge between the Shenguang Empire and our Tianlong Empire, I just want to make you look bad. Someone may even want to kill you."
Qin Xuan frowned.
Xiao Fan nodded slightly.
Qin Xuan's analysis makes sense.
If you simply wanted to catch Athena, it would be much safer to catch her on the road.
"Your Highness, don't you doubt that I was coveting Athena's beauty, so I asked Zhuang Yan to arrest Athena?"
Xiao Fan stepped forward and hugged Qin Xuan, smiling.
Qin Xuan shook her head slightly.
"If you were such a person, would you still wait for the wedding ceremony?"
