Chapter 258: Sword God
Can't you?
The last time he spoke to the Emperor, it was the Emperor who told him not to follow the young lady back to the palace. Apart from that, nothing else happened...
Thinking of Miss He, Wuqing's eyes suddenly lit up.
The Emperor has been with Miss He the whole day today. Could it be because of Miss He?
Wuqing felt that he had seen through the secret and found the truth.
He clicked his tongue twice, then took out the notebook in his arms, turned to a certain page and began to shake his head in admiration.
"Isn't this the real-life version of [The Domineering God Falls in Love with Me]? Now the God with a cold face but a warm heart finds that he has developed feelings for the girl from the human world, but he dares not express it..."
Wuqing read and turned the pages, enjoying the book very much.
"The next stage is that the God King dares not express his love, but is intercepted by the second male lead...?!"
"It's bad!" Wuqing slapped his thigh and stood up suddenly from the ground. "If the Emperor is the God in this storybook, then Miss He will be pried away immediately. I have to find a way to attack the Emperor indirectly..."
Wuqing closed the notebook of [The Domineering God Fell in Love with Me] and began to rack his brains for the important events in the life of the Emperor.
"ruthless."
Suddenly, Fu Ling's voice came from the hall.
Wuqing was shocked and immediately entered the hall.
Inside the hall, Fu Ling sat upright on a dazzling chair. His aura was like that of a god, with the power to destroy the world.
He raised his eyes and glanced at Wuqing, his fingers casually resting on the armrest of the seat, and spoke nonchalantly.
"what did you just say?"
"Your Excellency, your subordinate..."
Wuqing was startled and didn't know how to explain.
Fu Ling's tone was indifferent, his voice was cold and ruthless, "What did you just say about 'Sword God'? I don't want to ask a second time."
"Your Excellency, it's not 'drawing the sword', it's tyranny."
He twisted his thigh ruthlessly, groaning in pain.
He began to regret why he had read the storybook aloud just now, and now he could only hand in the newly bought storybook with tears in his eyes.
Wuqing took out his newly bought notebook with trembling hands and presented it to him with both hands.
The storybook automatically flew out of Wuqing's hand, came in front of Fu Ling, and began to read it automatically.
South Continent.
Lingyue Kingdom, Xia Family.
Xia Zhirou, covered in wounds, returned home dying.
There was a wound on her chest that was oozing blood, and her clothes were torn and tattered, as if she had been chased for a long time.
Because the head of the Xia family was in seclusion, several elders quickly helped Xia Zhirou into the house and asked an alchemist to treat him.
The Xia family has always been a family that values its disciples, so as soon as Xia Zhirou woke up, they asked her what had happened.
The Great Elder asked, "Aren't you in the academy? Why are you so seriously injured? And you even used up all the family's life-saving skills!"
Xia Zhirou covered her chest and coughed several times.
She tried to sit up and said angrily, "Great Elder, the academy sent us out on a mission, but someone took this opportunity to deliberately murder me."
The injuries on Xia Zhirou's body were naturally not caused by Ruan Xihe. On her way home, she was attacked by some bandits and all the spiritual weapons on her body were smashed before she was able to return home safely.
But now, she blamed everything on Ruan Xihe.
Upon hearing this, the second elder frowned fiercely.
"Who is so bold! He even dares to touch someone from my Xia family!"
Xia Zhirou's eyes dimmed, and she lied, "She didn't like the Xia family in the first place, and was jealous that I was the Xia family's genius weapon refiner. Later, she disagreed with me, so she wanted to take the opportunity to get rid of me, so that the Xia family would lose a genius weapon refiner like me."
"How dare you! Are you bullying me, the Xia family, because there is no one left?" the third elder shouted angrily.
The fourth elder slammed the table and stood up, "Rou'er, you should stay at home and recover from your injuries. Now tell us the name of that ignorant girl and where she is. We will capture her and bring her home to you to do whatever you want with her!"
The fifth elder nodded and said, "The fourth elder is right. Rou'er, don't get involved in this matter. Leave it to us. We will negotiate with Nanzhan College and get that ignorant kid back."
Xia Zhirou shook her head. "No, elders, I have to go back. If I don't take her down myself, how will others judge my Xia family? They will say that the young lady of the Xia family is just so-so. She can't even beat someone and yet she calls for help. This damages the reputation of my Xia family..."
Xia Zhirou thought to herself, if she didn't go, and the elders of the Xia family met Xia Yuanbai, wouldn't the lies she had made up be exposed?
Moreover, between her and Xia Yuanbai, these elders would definitely stand on Xia Yuanbai's side without hesitation.
So she wanted to go back with the elders, and then find an opportunity to get Xia Yuanbai away.
By then, no matter how powerful Ruan Xihe's trump card is, he can only cry out to the heavens and the earth for help in front of five elders who are all spiritual masters!
"That makes sense." The fifth elder nodded.
Xia Zhirou continued: "So, elders, I hope I can avenge this matter myself."
The fourth elder said: "Okay, but for your safety, we have to go with you!"
The great elder said in a deep voice: "Yes, you have lost all your life-saving skills. We will not leave you alone in danger. You should take good care of your injuries. When you are well, we will go back with you."
"Thank you very much, elders. Ahem..."
Xia Zhirou leaned against the head of the bed and nodded slightly, which caused another violent coughing fit.
...
When Ruan Xihe returned to the inn, Xia Yuanbai and the others had already woken up and were discussing something with everyone in the house.
Seeing her come in, Ou Ye frowned.
How is she still alive?
She was already uneasy and had a vague feeling that something was wrong when she failed to send a message to Xia Zhirou and the killers today.
But she still believed that things could succeed.
Because those killers were top-notch killers that Xuanyuan Feng had hired at a huge price. They had killed people throughout their lives and had never failed. Their skills were also very high.
But how come Ruan Xihe was okay?
Seeing Ruan Xihe coming back safe and sound, Ou Ye's heart sank like a stone to the bottom of the water, and he was filled with despair.
It seems that there is a high probability that those killers have met with an accident.
And Xia Zhirou hasn’t come back yet. I wonder how she is doing now. Has she given herself away?
