"Auntie, you asked me a question and made a request. Can I ask a question?" Qianjie retracted his thoughts and spoke out to wake up the maid who had stopped in her daze.
"Ask." The maid looked at Qianjie warily, and the words were mutual.
"Why do you think I am Duke Dai Hao? Forget it if you can't answer." Qianjie is really curious about this question. Could it be that the first Holy Spirit Cult senior who died in this mission deliberately misled the Duke's Palace?
And the evil soul masters of the Holy Spirit Sect who performed the mission later also deepened this misunderstanding by default?
But based on the Holy Spirit Church’s behavior towards colleagues...
It's 100% impossible. If you don't leave a trap for those who come after you, even if they wake up before they die, Qianjie has a say in this.
Of course, it is best for this beautiful misunderstanding to continue, so Qianjie only mentioned himself and did not mention his predecessors.
The maid breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is something that everyone with some status in the Duke's Palace knows, so it doesn't matter if I answer you.
"Since the expedition, the Duke has been sending people to contact Huo Yun'er and his son.
"After you entered the Duke's Palace, you immediately used your soul skills to understand Huo Yun'er and try to understand the situation of Huo Yun'er's mother and son, so I misjudged it."
Qianjie was silent. It seemed that the other party had confused the evil soul master of the Holy Spirit Sect with the person sent by Dai Hao.
No, didn't Dai Hao never take care of Huo Yun'er and his son since he went to war? At most, Huo Yun'er came back and renovated the tomb after his death.
If it is true as the maid said, since Dai Hao keeps sending people to contact him, it means that he knows the existence of Huo Yuhao's mother and son. Why did Dai Hao not know Huo Yuhao at all later, and even forgot that he once had such a son?
It's impossible for Dai Hao to lose his memory after being hit by Tang Sanyi with a hammer, right? After suffering amnesia, Huo Yuhao was asked to recognize his father again. Was he too busy?
This is not impossible. After all, the brain circuit of a certain god king in the original work cannot be called a brain circuit. It is more appropriate to call it a fertilization place.
Qianjie threw away the messy thoughts in his mind.
The original work can only be used as a reference. This is his profound understanding over the past nine years. If everything were to be based on the original work, then this world would not be possible. There are too many conflicts, and even the underlying logic of the world is conflicting with each other.
"We're here. It's still too late for you to turn around and walk out of the Duke's Mansion."
In front of a building as luxurious as a palace, the maid turned to look at Qianjie and gave her one last warning.
Qianjie said nothing, moved his fingers, and the maid walked into the building.
Under the moonlight, a blood-colored thread is looming.
…
"Let's talk about your purpose first. As long as it's not too outrageous, I can make the decision to help you complete it. If your request is too outrageous, I still advise you to leave the Duke's Palace now."
In the study, the Duchess is reading a book.
When she saw someone entering, she didn't even need to say anything to her personal maid. Looking at the wounds on the maid's hands and the thousands of calamities that followed, combined with the commotion in the Duke's Mansion reported by her servants just now, the Duchess realized something and spoke herself.
"I want to get close to Huo Yuner and his son."
Qianjie bowed slightly.
Since others give you face like this, you should also give enough face to them.
There's nothing you can gain by attacking people right away.
The Duchess was surprised and looked Qianjie up and down several times.
"It's a pity that you should go back. I can't do it."
"Don't worry, madam, I don't want to do anything. I just want to kill Huo Yun'er and her son." A dignified duchess, now the nominal ruler of the White Tiger Palace, may not be able to kill a Huo Yun'er, but she can't even let one person get close to Huo Yun'er. Yun'er and her son couldn't do it, so they were just telling a joke.
If they really couldn't do it, how did Huo Yun'er and her son get into the woodshed?
"It's normal for you to be an outsider, but I really can't help it." The Duchess continued to look at Qianjie, and finally waved her hand to signal the maid to exit the study.
It can be seen that she is very confident and is not afraid that Qianjie will commit an assassination after the maid leaves.
A member of the Xingguan Xu family's strength would definitely not be too low.
"Whether you can get close to Huo Yuner and her son is not up to me, it's up to Huo Yuner himself, so I can't help you."
Qianjie was stunned for a moment, was Huo Yun'er so powerful? Would such a powerful person make their mother and son live miserable lives?
Seeing the look on Qianjie's face, the Duchess showed a hint of displeasure.
"That bitch's situation is indeed easy for outsiders to misunderstand, but I can tell you clearly that I did not choose that woodshed for that bitch, she chose it herself.
"Unless we really break up, there is nothing I can do against her."
After saying that, the Duchess looked down at the book in her hand again.
Qianjie also turned his attention to the book. The book was yellowed and had some curled edges. The holder should read it frequently.
The name is - "Shrek's Seven Monsters".
There is also a gilt pattern on the title page of the book, which is a hardcover edition.
Well, it doesn’t matter what book you read. The popular books on Douluo Continent today all praise Shrek thousands of years ago in different ways. Qianjie has also read some of them.
The evaluation is: It is even more outrageous than the original work in the previous life.
"My patience and kindness are limited. Do you take yourself too seriously, unknown thief?"
Seeing that Qianjie hadn't left yet, the Duchess put down her book, with a vague expression of anger on her brows.
She could temporarily compromise on some less important things because of the life of the maid that accompanied her day and night, but she really thought that she could force her by taking the life of the maid...
The Xingguan Xu family is a world-famous auxiliary martial spirit, but that doesn't mean they are necessarily kind-hearted.
"Madam, I am just a great soul master. Why don't you ask how a great soul master can control a soul emperor?"
Qianjie was tired, and he didn't want to say anything, nor did he want to undress and perform an Allah Bahuk.
The Duchess was stunned for a moment and looked at Qianjie again.
The child looks to be about ten years old, about the same age as her second son Dai Huabin, but he can't tell much from his appearance alone. Not all soul masters in this world can grow up to be great, there is no shortage of dwarfs, and there is no shortage of disguised faces. s method.
So she initially thought that Qianjie subdued her personal maid through strength. People with too low strength would not dare to lurk into the Duke's Palace, right?
"I have underestimated this young hero. A great soul master dares to enter the Duke's Palace and even come in front of me."
After calling the maid into the study again, and after the maid whispered something, the Duchess changed her attitude and faced Qianjie.
At least Qianjie has a seat, and his title has changed from a little thief to a young hero.
Two level eight fixed soul bombs were strapped to his body, and there was a companion holding a level nine soul bomb outside. A person with this kind of wealth was definitely not some wild soul master on the roadside.
