In the fragrant boudoir, Ling Xiao and Zhao Bingyan looked at each other silently.
For a moment, many thoughts passed through his mind, but he said nothing in the end.
Zhao Bingyan stared at the fox mask, feeling somewhat familiar, but couldn't remember where she had seen this old man.
However, she didn't dare to be careless.
Although she didn't know the identity of the person in front of her or the specific content of this operation, she knew very well that this operation was very important.
As the protagonist of the action, the strength of this fox-faced man cannot be underestimated.
Zhao Bingyan didn't dare to look anymore. She stood up and collected all the remnants of the teleportation array on the ground. Then she nodded to Ling Xiao and said, "Hidden it, Your Excellency. I will tell you when it's time to leave."
She pointed behind the screen, then pushed the door open and walked out.
The location of the boudoir was quite a distance from the front yard, but at this moment, some commotion sounds were gradually heard.
She had to get out quickly or she would arouse suspicion.
Besides, she was really curious about what the red-clothed sect's operation was about.
The door is closed.
Ling Xiao didn't say a word from beginning to end. After Zhao Bingyan left, he looked at the boudoir curiously.
It must be said that Zhao Bingyan has a very good aesthetic sense. The decoration and placement in the boudoir are very particular, and one can tell at a glance that the owner has good taste.
He touched here and looked there. After satisfying his curiosity, he sat down.
"Is this what is called 'dark under the light'?"
Ling Xiao laughed dumbly.
No one would have thought that he would still stay in the prince's palace after completing the assassination.
Moreover, the small teleportation array was so loud that it was obviously deliberately made for others to see, making people subconsciously think that the murderer had escaped through the teleportation array.
The methods of the Red Sect are indeed powerful.
However, without the help of Xiao Pingsheng's wife, none of this would have been possible.
When did Zhao Bingyan join the Red Sect?
Ling Xiao recalled his past interactions with this woman and felt that it was too magical. He had never associated Zhao Bingyan with the Red Sect.
After all, no matter how you look at it, the two have nothing to do with each other.
Perhaps, precisely because of this, Zhao Bingyan is a member of the Red Sect.
Ling Xiao took a deep breath and stopped thinking about that woman.
Recalling the assassination just now, Ling Xiao slowly digested the pleasure of killing and revenge, and then filled his heart with even greater hatred.
A long while.
He pulled out a storage bag.
His original plan was not to take Xiao Yue's storage bag. After all, any moment of delay might cause him to fall into the bottomless abyss.
I really want to thank Xiao Zi for buying time for him.
Xiao Yue has a lot of money.
In the storage bag, there is a huge sum of nearly 5,000 spirit stones, as well as some high-quality elixirs.
Although there are only a few kinds of materials, they are all extraordinary and extraordinary.
Ling Xiao felt that it was a pity that there were no secret techniques or other things in the storage bag.
He was quite interested in Xiao's skills.
As for clothes, bags, cosmetics, etc., Ling Xiao took them out without any ceremony and burned them all.
After doing this, there was a burst of noisy footsteps outside the door.
Ling Xiao remained calm, and as soon as he made a seal, water mist surged in.
The moment he disappeared, the door was pushed open, and a team of heavily armed monks stepped into the room and searched extensively, but to no avail.
"Let's go to the next room!"
Everyone rushed to another boudoir in a noisy manner.
After they left, Zhao Bingyan hurriedly turned back, quickly closed the door, and took a closer look, only to see Ling Xiao sitting leisurely, as if nothing happened.
Her already pale face turned even paler, and she stared at Ling Xiao as if she had seen a ghost.
Ling Xiao also looked at her quietly without saying a word.
In the end, Zhao Bingyan forced herself to calm down and smiled reluctantly: "Your Excellency has such a good trick, but it was not discovered."
Not only is it a good idea!
After Zhao Bingyan went out to inquire, she found out what earth-shattering thing this fox-faced man had done!
Assassinate Xiao Yue!
Moreover, in front of all the guests and all the foundation-building monks, he completed the assassination of Xiao Yue and then escaped calmly!
Just hearing about it made Zhao Bingyan feel cold in his heart.
At this moment, looking at Ling Xiao, Zhao Bingyan couldn't help but feel worried that the other party would kill her and silence her.
"It's very windy outside now. Don't move around casually. Just stay in the room for the next two days, okay? In two days, I'll think about how to arrange for you to go down the mountain." Zhao Bingyan said quickly.
Ling Xiao nodded slightly, feeling helpless.
Two days...
Then when he goes back, he will definitely be scolded like a storm.
However, he also had a happy-go-lucky temperament. He quickly gathered his thoughts, took out a pill, swallowed it in his belly, and then refined it in silence.
Zhao Bingyan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw this. He wanted to let Ling Xiao hide behind the screen, but he didn't dare, so he had to go to the bed and sit in a daze.
She had to think about what was coming next.
There are two teleportation arrays inexplicably on Chenjia Mountain. Everyone knows that there is a ghost in the house.
After a series of subsequent interrogations, she had to get rid of the suspicion.
Fortunately, she and Xiao Pingsheng have known each other for many years, and she has never revealed her secret identity as a member of the Red Sect.
Xiao Pingsheng should not doubt her.
She was just like this, quietly calculating, simulating various scenarios in her mind and thinking about how to deal with them.
Just as she expected, in the next two days, a series of cleaning operations were launched in the county prince's palace to search for the so-called mole!
However, as Zhao Bingyan was a concubine and she and Xiao Pingsheng knew each other well, they were not subject to too strict interrogation.
Even so, Zhao Bingyan's room was turned upside down, and every corner was searched.
What amazed Zhao Bingyan was that Ling Xiao disappeared out of thin air when faced with the search. No matter how he used his spiritual consciousness, he could not detect the existence of this person!
This made Zhao Bingyan feel a chill running down his spine.
If the fox-faced man has such magical powers, doesn't he just kill whomever he wants?
The Red Sect actually has such a terrifying assassin. Is this the so-called ace?
Zhao Bingyan was frightened.
Normally, she would not dare to take another look at Ling Xiao, for fear that he would stab her out of nowhere and she would die unjustly!
But what surprised her was that the fox-faced man didn't even look at her. On weekdays, he didn't do anything else except practice, just practice.
Why is he practicing so hard?
Zhao Bingyan couldn't understand.
He's obviously an old man, so it's useless no matter how hard he works, right?
At such an old age, I have no chance to build a foundation!
But her doubts were easily solved the next day.
Ling Xiao's old skin peeled off, revealing his originally young and energetic skin, which frightened Zhao Bingyan so much that he almost flew to the sky!
Actually, he's not an old man?
Zhao Bingyan was stunned.
