At night, a carriage was driving slowly on the streets of the noble gathering area south of Xujing.
Although it is already the time for the curfew to start, in this area, the travel of dignitaries will not be affected in any way, and this is the wonderful use of power in the mortal world.
In addition to Xungui District, some places in the west of the city, such as those high-end pubs or brothels, are still open at this time due to the approaching Mid-Autumn Festival, so that the light and noise are not visible in this slightly higher area. It can be faintly seen and heard from the south of the city.
Of course, those places are not accessible to ordinary people.
"..."
At this time, Han Li was also on the slowly moving carriage, sitting there with his eyes closed and meditating.
Originally, he had just made plans today and was not going to go out easily in the future. However, the master of the Qin family and the young master of the Qin family were both going out for a meeting tonight. Of course, he, the 'bodyguard' who came to protect each other under the orders of his master, was It was impossible to stay at home any longer, so I had to bite the bullet and follow him out.
What's even more unfortunate is that the destination of their trip is actually Prince Xin's Mansion?
According to what Mr. Qin said, the reason why they went to the meeting tonight was because of the attack on Prince Na Xin that happened not long ago.
Prince Xin is the younger brother of the current Holy Emperor, who is prosperous and powerful. However, two days ago, the young prince, the only son of the other party's family, was beaten to death on the street for no reason, and he was almost beaten to death. Beaten to death, that kind of scandalous case was of course the one that shocked Xu Jing and made King Xin furious and ordered the subordinate officials in the capital to solve the case within a time limit.
However, although the government office has indeed arrested a lot of suspects in the past two days, almost all the poor and idle people who usually like to hang out on the streets and are brave and aggressive have been arrested. However, after three days, , there has been no progress or clues about that case so far.
As a last resort, after hearing that King Xin's anger had subsided a little in the past two days and that the prince's health was gradually improving, the governor of Xu Jing was worried and hurriedly called on the dignitaries in the capital to go to Prince Xin's Mansion tonight to express their condolences. In the name of bringing enough gifts to visit Yi Er, the purpose is to give more gifts and let King Xin calm down his anger and give them a few more days of grace.
Mr. Qin, who was also a dignitary in Xu Jing and received the news, saw that it was the call issued by the governor of Xu Jing, and the banquet was hosted by King Xin, who was the younger brother of the current emperor and held a high position. He did not dare to refuse and offend both of them at the same time. Being a human being, he had no choice but to readily express his willingness to attend the appointment on time.
Therefore, Han Li, who was on a mission, had no choice but to follow him and could only stay bored in the carriage.
He had to follow. After all, Master Wu of Prince Xin's Mansion and the beaten Prince Xin were not ordinary people. At the same time, the water in Prince Xin's Mansion seemed to be very deep. If the time came, Master Qin and Young Master Qin would be killed. If there are three shortcomings, then he will have failed the master's trust.
"Well?"
After an unknown amount of time, the rickety carriage finally came to a slow stop. Then, Han Li, who had been sitting quietly in the carriage with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes.
"arrive!"
"Master Qin, please come down and watch your step."
"Master Qin! Master Han!"
"You two, please slow down too?"
In the flattering sound of the coachman nodding and bending, the master of Qin Mansion, Young Master Qin and Han Li got off the car one after another. Then they looked up and saw the double gate tower, stone lions and vermilion gate in front, and a row of lanterns hanging above it. The grand gate of Prince Xin's Mansion.
"..."
At the same time, Han Li also discovered that there were quite a lot of guests here, but they seemed to be just ordinary mortals without spiritual power?
Han Li couldn't help but frown as he looked at the endless line of guests who were queuing up to hand over their gifts and greetings and enter one after another.
Of course, he didn't have any objection to King Xin's changing ways of accepting gifts. He was just a little surprised and puzzled by the fact that all the people he saw were ordinary people, not even a monk.
According to Han Li's idea, there are crouching tigers and hidden dragons here in Xu Jing, and since Prince Xin's Mansion can have two immortal cultivators, the 'Wu Immortal Master' and Crown Prince Xin, then there should be more immortal cultivators among his relatives and friends or within the palace. That's right, but now it seems that the situation is a little different from what he imagined?
"Ahem!"
"Let's go."
"Let's go in first."
However, before Han Li could think more about it, Mr. Qin next to him implicitly reminded him, and then used his eyes to signal him to follow the father and son in.
"..."
Although he was a little reluctant, Han Li didn't say anything. He just followed Mr. Qin and Young Master Qin who seemed to be slightly hostile to him without saying a word, and walked straight into the gate of Prince Xin's Mansion. .
Next, after entering a certain courtyard in the palace, greetings and courtesy with the guests are naturally indispensable.
Of course, Han Li didn't pay too much attention to it. He just silently observed the people and buildings inside and outside Prince Xin's palace, while following Mr. Qin in a taciturn manner. He didn't pay much attention to the mortals who wanted to come up and talk. He dealt with it casually, letting them and Mr. Qin talk about polite words that sounded boring to him.
Of course, Han Li is not the kind of person who doesn't know how to communicate, and those people who came up to talk to him were the dignitaries here in Xu Jing, but as an immortal cultivator, he didn't want to get together with those mortals and explore That boring human-machine relationship.
After all, there are differences between immortals and mortals, and this time, if it weren't for the mission assigned by Master Li Huayuan, these mortals in front of them would not even have a chance to see him, so they would not have come to talk to him in advance.
"correct!"
"Liu Dianyi, why are you presiding here tonight? I seem to have never seen Manager Wang?"
When Han Lizi was standing aside boredly and looking around casually, Mr. Qin suddenly asked an official from Prince Xin's palace who came to welcome various important guests and chat.
"Are you asking the manager Wang?"
"I heard that he had something to do at home yesterday, so I hurriedly took leave and went back to my hometown, Lanzhou. What, Mr. Qin, do you have something to do with him?"
"No no no!"
"No, I just felt a little strange, so I just asked casually."
"I see."
"Oh! Is this the new Young Master Han from the Qin Mansion?"
"Exactly!"
"He is a nephew of my Qin family. He just came here a few days ago. I will bring him here tonight to see the world."
"good!"
"Sure enough, he is a talented person!"
"Liu Dianyi is so complimentary."
"Come on, Mr. Qin, there are many people here. Can I take you to the hall to sit down first?"
"Very good!"
In this way, although Han Li felt very bored, he still had to act like a puppet, following the old man of Qin Mansion and the clerk of Prince Xin Mansion, heading straight towards the one not far away that had been decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations. It looked big and bright. Walk to the banquet hall.
However……
What Han Li never expected was that at this time, not far from the banquet courtyard of Prince Xin's Mansion, in a dark and empty room on the high tower in the center of the lotus pond, there was a room full of people during the day. The person he had seen when he was young was wearing a red and white dress. From a distance, it looked like a misty and lively flowing cloud. She wore a bamboo hat and a scarf on her face. Her face could not be seen clearly, and The female monk in the alchemy stage, still holding a purple sword in her hand, was lurking inside and staring at him from a distance.
That's right!
At this time, who was lurking on the top of the tower, staring at the banquet at Prince Xin's Mansion, and seeing Han Li, who was it not Fairy Mo Caihuan and Mo?
During the day, she watched outside the palace, and in the evening, after cooking dinner for her master and sister and resting for a while, she sneaked back into the city, and boldly sneaked into Prince Xin's palace in the dark with superhuman consciousness. Inside, he has been watching every move in Prince Xin's Mansion from this uninhabited high-tower building that looks like it is specially used for moon-viewing.
Then, everything that happened in the banquet courtyard in the distance and a familiar figure naturally came into her eyes, and she could no longer look away.
"!!"
"That, that's..."
"Brother Han?"
First he was shocked, and then he looked at it again, and after confirming that the person was none other than Brother Han Li, whom he had always dreamed of, Mo Caihuan felt that his heart could not help but speed up several times. beat and exclaimed.
"But!"
"Why is he here?"
But then, after being excited, she almost wanted to rush over to recognize him regardless. She exclaimed in confusion and muttered to herself, then quickly calmed down again after asking and answering a question to herself.
After all, she also knew that she was now investigating the affairs of Prince Xin's Mansion and the Black Evil Sect. Since this was Prince Xin's Mansion and the other party was in the banquet hall, it was definitely inappropriate for her to come forward at this time.
Moreover, later, Prince Xin and Master Wu Xian are likely to appear, which is a perfect opportunity for her to observe in secret. Maybe she can find some clues by then. That is why she cannot let go easily. Passed.
"Alas!"
"I see!"
"Brother Han is a monk from the Yellow Maple Valley of the seven major sects. Recently, the casual cultivators here in Xujing have been disappearing frequently. In addition, I have asked Sister Cui'er to spread the news about the Black Evil Sect. Could it be that it caused He was sent here because of the attention of the seven major sects?”
In this way, Mo Caihuan continued to ponder and guess as he observed and muttered to himself.
"That's not right either!"
"This morning, I asked Sister Cui'er to spread the investigated information to the casual cultivators near Xu Jing. It's only been a day. Even if the seven major sects received the news, they couldn't react so quickly, right? "
Then, she frowned again and rejected her own guess.
"Um……"
"The time really doesn't match up. So what's going on with Brother Han? Why are you here?"
Holding the Big Dipper Sword in his arms, Mo Caihuan began to feel a little suspicious.
"strangeness!"
"Is it because he was sent here by the seven major sects to investigate before I released the news... or is it because of something else?"
"besides……"
"Who are those two people? Why does Brother Han follow them?"
"They don't seem to be immortal cultivators..."
"I can't figure it out!"
"Could it be..."
"Brother Han also came to investigate the Black Evil Cult, but he came before I released the news. And those two people were his cover for sneaking into Prince Xin's Mansion?"
"That must be it!"
"Brother Han deserves to be called Brother Han. He actually thought of such a good way to go directly to the banquet site to investigate!"
"If you don't want me, you can only hide here far away. It's really not that far away."
As he watched, Mo Caihuan continued to think wildly, but at the same time he began to feel sorry for himself.
At this time, the banquet scene gradually became lively, and there were also singing and dancing performances by the dancers and the speech of Prince Xin. The guests also began to drink and chat with each other. However, how could Mo Caihuan care about it at this time? many?
Now, she was just shocked by the appearance of her brother Han and started making random guesses about his behavior.
"Really..."
"Since Brother Han has been here a long time ago, why didn't you come to me?"
"he……"
"What on earth was he thinking?"
Then, Mo Caihuan, who was suspicious and making random guesses, began to think of other places and cast a complicated look at the figure in the distance with some resentment.
At this moment, she did not consider whether the other party knew the existence of Mo Caihuan, her 'Mo Fairy', nor did she consider whether the other party knew where she lived in Xu Jing. She just blamed the other party for coming to Xu Jing. Jing didn't come to look for her, which just made her feel uncomfortable.
"!!"
"that is……"
Fortunately, something unusual appeared in the distance at this time, and Mo Caihuan finally had to put his thoughts back together, and turned to look at the sky at the banquet site in the distance.
"ah!"
"Is it, is it a phoenix?"
After just one glance, Mo Caihuan couldn't help but exclaimed again.
Because, she saw that there, there was actually a fire phoenix flying from the distant sky to the top of the banquet site, and it just screamed and started to circle around the heads of the guests for several times.
"so amazing……"
"What kind of spell is that?!"
That kind of spell, regardless of whether it is powerful or not, and regardless of its effectiveness, she, Fairy Mo Caihuan Mo, would definitely not and would not envy it.
In fact, up to now, although she has been cultivating immortals for a year, the Seven Star Escape, Zhou Yixue, Xiaoxiang Immortal Rain and Immortal Cultivation Techniques among the basic immortal skills of the Wuzhuang Master Sect have also been very good, but she's Fairy Mo 'There is still only one 'exorcist' that can cure various poisoning conditions, two sword skills and one escape magic. As for the others, not to mention the magical one hovering over the banquet site at this time. Even if Xiao Cui'er's sister knows such simple magic, her master Anne has never allowed her to learn it, leaving her complaining but helpless.
"Um?"
Then, Mo Caihuan finally saw an old Taoist wearing a Taoist robe with white hair and white beard walking into the banquet. He raised his hand and recalled the hovering 'Fire Phoenix'.
"turn out to be……"
"That person is Master Wu Xian?"
"It looks like it's very powerful..."
And Mo Caihuan couldn't help but feel a wave of sincere admiration in his heart when he looked at the other party's fluttering clothes and his air of a master.
In her opinion, maybe only that is what the impression of an 'immortal leader' and an immortal cultivator should look like, and the 'Mo Fairy' like her, or that Brother Han in the distance, or her My master, Flame Great Immortal, and my junior sister, Carp Great Immortal, always feel that they are missing a little bit of what an 'immortal' should be like?
"but……"
"laugh!"
"Brother Han is better looking, that Master Wu Xian is too old..."
But soon, after seeing Qi Wei, Mo Caihuan no longer paid attention to the white-haired and white-bearded 'Wu Xianshi' who seemed to be very virtuous, but instead turned her attention to that man again. On Brother Han who was sitting in a certain seat.
Moreover, as she watched, she couldn't help but be in a trance, so much so that she didn't pay attention to how long the banquet lasted, what Master Wu Xian and Prince Xin and his wife said, and when they left the party. .
"ah!!"
At this time, when Mo Caihuan was still looking at her brother Han in a daze and didn't know how much time had passed, suddenly, in the brightly lit inner courtyard of Prince Xin's Mansion, a certain maid's voice suddenly sounded. A shrill scream.
"Not good!"
"The prince, the young prince and the immortal master were all killed!!"
"!!"
"There are assassins!!!"
"quick!"
"Catch the assassin!!!"
"guard!!!"
The next moment, when the guests at the banquet began to be confused, and when the entire Prince Xin's Mansion suddenly became commotion, Mo Caihuan finally came back to his senses with a jolt.
"!?"
As for her condescending position, of course she immediately followed the place where the sound came from and looked.
Then he suddenly saw: a strong guy with horns on his head, a red face and fangs, and his upper body was bare, exuding a red ominous aura. Unexpectedly, he had killed Prince Xin and his wife and Master Wu Xian at a distance. In a courtyard?
The maid who made the shrill scream was at the archway of the courtyard. At this time, the other party was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground and kept moving back.
Not far behind her, there was a group of angry guards from Prince Xin's Palace. Under the command of an equally angry commander, they were continuously surrounding the courtyard with swords, bows and crossbows.
It's a pity that their guards are just a group of ordinary people, but the perpetrator is extraordinary. Not only does he ignore the swords, guns and crossbows, but he also shoots and kills many people before jumping tens of feet. In just a few jumps, It was almost time to completely escape from Prince Xin's Mansion, which occupies a huge area.
"not good!!"
He never expected that something like this would happen to him just because he was in a trance. This made Mo Caihuan no longer care about Han Li at the banquet scene. Instead, he directly opened the doors and windows and flew toward him at the first moment. He rushed towards the guy who was about to flee after committing the crime.
She saw it, and there was no doubt that the perpetrator must be someone from the Black Evil Cult!
However, she could no longer think too much about why the Black Evil Cult people would attack Prince Xin's Mansion, which was supposed to have a close relationship with the Black Evil Cult. She also couldn't think about continuing to see her brother Han. She just wanted to do it as soon as possible. Catch the perpetrator and ask for more clues about the Black Evil Cult.
Otherwise, after Prince Xin, Prince Xin and Master Wu Xian were all killed, if that guy ran away again, the clues would be completely cut off, and then she might not be able to pursue the affairs of the Black Evil Sect anymore. .
"!!"
In a few breaths, Mo Caihuan had already chased outside Prince Xin's Mansion, and gradually caught up with him by relying on the Seven Star Escape technique and huge spiritual power.
"stop!"
"Thieves, please leave!!"
Then, of course, after seeing the two sides getting closer and closer, she drew her sword out of its sheath and scolded the opponent's back.
