After the aunt discussed Su Yan's price with King Xuan, she did not follow Su Yan to the courtyard. Instead, she stood in front of the pavilion and watched Su Yan and Feng Shiqi enter Jun Xia's courtyard.
After the two of them walked away, the aunt turned her head and asked King Xuan: "That red fox demon... was assassinated by the water monk, right?"
"Um......"
King Xuan responded with an indifferent expression, confirming that his aunt's guess was accurate.
The red fox demon did not die of a sudden illness, but was assassinated by an assassin who sneaked in. The assassin regarded the heavy troops of Prince Xuan's palace as if they were nothing and even deceived Prince Xuan and killed the red fox who lived in the main courtyard of Luanming County. It didn't alarm anyone at all.
Even King Xuan found out the clues by observing the red fox corpse after the red fox demon died.
However, in order not to cause commotion, King Xuan, together with the imperial doctor, misinterpreted the truth and began to track down the assassin.
"The assassin's cultivation level is not much weaker than mine. We have initially ruled out the gangsters from Nightmare Town committing the crime, as well as warnings from political opponents and enemies seeking revenge..."
King Xuan said calmly: "The clues are broken. We don't have any clues at the moment. We can only start to guard against thieves."
The assassin came and went without a trace and did not leave any traces on Prince Xuan's Mansion. According to the clues and enemies, there was no abnormality in tracing him to the end.
"Shui Xiu, who is as good as your monk, should have already become famous in the world of cultivation, right?" The aunt's face turned a little strange, and she didn't know how to evaluate what happened in Prince Xuan's Mansion.
It was weird from beginning to end. King Xuan's cultivation level was one and a half levels better than that of Chong Qiong. Only those who could sneak in and commit crimes under his nose must be at least monks in the integration stage or monks in the void refining stage.
The monks in the Integration Stage and the Void Refining Stage are also at the top of the major sects. They are really not that boring to sneak into Prince Xuan's Mansion to kill a fox. It is understandable to directly kill County Lord Luanming, but they live together. The head of Luanming County in a wing was unscathed, but the red fox demon was assassinated by someone else.
All clues about the assassin have been cut off, and there is no suspect on King Xuan's side.
This made King Xuan feel extremely angry.
………………
…………
In the courtyard of Luanming County Lord.
Su Yan, who turned into a white fox, looked back at the courtyard while lying in Feng Shiqi's arms, and asked Feng Shiqi in a low voice: "That person...is King Xuan, right? Why does it feel a little strange?" Woolen cloth?"
"You said... super handsome and easy-going, right?"
Feng Shiqi seemed to have answered the question incorrectly, completely ignoring King Xuan's tired look in mourning clothes, and said with bright eyes:
"Master Xuan Wang is in our circle. It is recognized that Xia Yu is the most suitable person to marry. He is young, powerful, has great cultivation, and has the blood of Luan Bird... Many girls in Xia Yu want Princess Xuan. Where’s the name!”
"Have you ever considered Jun Xia's feelings when you say this?" Su Yan complained hesitantly.
"Of course I have thought about it! The county master doesn't know how much he hopes that the stepmother who likes King Xuan will appear..."
Feng Shiqi explained to Su Yan: "The former Princess Xuan has passed away for many years, and King Xuan has Luan bird blood in his body... The Luan bird tribe is loyal and unswerving. Typical, the death of Princess Xuan was a huge blow to King Xuan, and he has not been able to get over the sadness he felt until today."
"The county master has always been looking forward to the appearance of his stepmother to prevent King Xuan from hurting himself due to excessive grief."
The luan bird sings harmoniously. The luan bird has one companion throughout its life. If something unexpected happens to the other half, the only remaining one will follow.
This is the nature of Luanniao. Before Luanniao really fell in love with Minghe, his personality was relatively cold. Once the relationship was established, he would remain loyal until death. King Xuan did not have a relationship with County Lord Luanming because the blood in his body was not pure enough. He died directly with his wife, but he also had some physical problems due to long-term depression.
This was the reason why Su Yan immediately noticed something was wrong with his face and state when he first met King Xuan.
Others did not show anything about it, because everyone knew about King Xuan. His Majesty the Emperor even held many concubine selections for King Xuan, hoping that he could untie his knot and accept his other companion Minghe again.
But this doesn't make much sense. There are naturally some reasons why the Luannia tribe binds their partners.
King Xuan can no longer find a suitable person.
It was also because of Luanniao's bloodline that King Xuan was so worried about something going wrong with his daughter.
"The Luan bird and the song are in harmony..."
Su Yan suddenly came back to his senses and remembered an allusion in his mother's appraisal book.
Luan birds chirp. The Luan is a male and the song is a female, and the Luan bird can turn into a phoenix when it sings in harmony. This is the reason why the Luan bird is bound to one companion throughout its life. The two are almost integrated into each other. If something happens to one, the other will inevitably follow.
Su Yan hadn't heard anything before, but after Feng Shiqi's description of King Xuan's love, Su Yan remembered an allusion to the Luan bird in the appraisal book that he had read as a novel.
Seeing Su Yan's expression change, Feng Shiqi couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong with you?"
"fine......."
The war between all races began with the battle between dragon and phoenix. If a small insect on his side fell into the territory of the phoenix, it would probably only be eaten by others... Su Yan felt a little bit lucky in his heart: Fortunately it was a Luan bird.
"The County Lord is in the back room. The County Lord doesn't want to see anyone these days. Can you go in alone?"
Arriving in front of a wing building, Feng Shiqi put Su Yan on the wooden stairs and asked Su Yan to go to the county lord's bedroom on the third floor alone, using his cute fox demon appearance to enchant her so that the county lord could Get out of the psychological shadow of the sudden death of your beloved fox.
Su Yan didn't mean anything to this. King Xuan had promised to pay him 10,000 kilograms of spiritual stones. Naturally, he also needed to show Goulan's professionalism and act cute to County Lord Luanming to help her get over the shadow of the death of her beloved pet.
"This second floor...should be the den where the pure fox used to live, right?"
Su Yan glanced at the second floor, and his keen sense of smell detected the strong smell of fox demon here. After taking a look, Su Yan jumped left and right, and stepped on the stairs to reach the bedroom of County Lord Luanming on the third floor. .
"Sister Junxia, open the door quickly!"
Su Yan stood up and started knocking on the door, saying: "Master Xuan Wang ordered me to come and take care of the county master's mood!"
After knocking on the door for a while, there was no movement from the dormitory. This made Su Yan stunned for a moment. He wondered in his heart whether Jun Xia was doing something stupid in there, right?
Su Yan thought this as he stood upright and took two steps back, ready to kick the door open and leave.
He didn't notice that a head poked out from the eaves of the third floor, its big emerald eyes firmly locked on his fox body.
The next second, the figure hidden on the eaves jumped directly down on Su Yan. The figure, which was larger than Su Yan, firmly pressed Su Yan, opened his mouth and bit Su Yan directly. Behind the words, above the neck.
"Uh-huh-huh..."
Su Yan couldn't help but scream when he was frightened, and subconsciously wanted to turn around and suppress his creature with his pedals.
But there was a familiar sound coming from behind.
"嘤嘤嘤!"
"嘤嘤嘤?"
Emerald green and blue pupils looked at each other, and the two white-furred little foxes chewed at each other.
"Why do you, a fox, talk so stinky!" Su Yan could understand the fox's whispers. The fox behind him had a really stinky mouth, and he directly called himself a bastard.
