Chapter 131

Although Han Fei did not know what method he used to save his sister, Princess Honglian, Master Tian Ze had never been brought to justice and remained at large.

It was also because of the major events that had occurred one after another recently—first the death of the Han Wang, then the Great General Ji Wuye being killed by Su Xuan in public—that everyone's hatred had shifted to Su Xuan, and they intended to search for Su Xuan's whereabouts, which caused everyone to overlook Master Tian Ze.

However, even if they remembered Master Tian Ze, it would be of no use.

The envoy of the Qin Guo had already been killed by Master Tian Ze.

This was not good news for the State of Han.

When the late King was alive and Ji Wuye was still present, the State of Han could not afford to provoke the Qin Guo, let alone the State of Han after such turmoil.

Thinking of the impending wrath of the Qin Guo.

The Crown Prince of Han could only send people to seize the time to capture Master Tian Ze, who had killed the Qin envoy, and prepare to give the Qin Guo an explanation.

However, before they could find Master Tian Ze's whereabouts.

Another piece of bad news came: the new envoy of the Qin Guo had already set off and would arrive in Xinzheng in at most two days.

In two days, could they catch Master Tian Ze?

The answer was clearly negative.

From the time Master Tian Ze first appeared and set a great fire in the city until now, they had not caught Master Tian Ze for such a long time, let alone now that the Great General Ji Wuye was dead and the whereabouts of the Blood-Clad Marquis were unknown.

Not to mention the Crown Prince of Han and the Chancellor Zhang Kaidi and others who were anxious.

At this moment, Su Xuan was acting arrogantly in one of Ji Wuye's villas.

Whether the Cloaked Man was truly willing to submit or falsely willing to submit.

At least, the moment he chose to submit, he had actually made a compromise, proving that he cared about his own life, and Lady Mingzhu's Gu, as long as the Cloaked Man had no antidote, would become something that would always restrain him.

Under the cover of the Yemu organization, it was basically impossible for the Crown Prince of Han to find Su Xuan's whereabouts.

As for wanting to find the whereabouts of Master Tian Ze, the murderer who killed the Qin envoy?

It was estimated that it could not be done either.

According to what Su Xuan knew, after killing the Qin envoy, Master Tian Ze had already led the Corpse-Driving Demon, the Poison King, Wushuang Gui, and others to leave Xinzheng, preparing to leave the State of Han and return to Baiyue.

Why did Su Xuan know such things?

Of course, Yan Lingji told him.

In the original work, Master Tian Ze's motive for killing the Qin envoy was hard to say, but at this moment, Master Tian Ze's motive for killing the Qin envoy was not something difficult to understand.

It was nothing more than the fact that his two great enemies, Master Tian Ze and Ji Wuye, had died one after another, and the Han Wang had also died.

All his few enemies were dead, and he could not find anyone to take revenge on.

But he was unwilling to give up revenge just like that.

Therefore, after excluding these enemies, he placed the object of his revenge on the entire State of Han.

With his own strength, he could not destroy the State of Han, but he could bring some trouble to the State of Han.

For example, angering the Qin Guo!

In the villa, Su Xuan looked at a scroll in his hand, and then looked up, glancing at Yan Lingji.

"In other words, he feels that his revenge on the State of Han is almost over, so he chooses to return to Baiyue, preparing to recruit troops and buy horses in Baiyue? To take revenge on the King of Baiyue?"

"Yes." Yan Lingji's expression was somewhat complex; after all, Master Tian Ze did not take her away when he returned to Baiyue.

This meant that Master Tian Ze had already tacitly accepted her becoming Su Xuan's person.

How could this not be Master Tian Ze recognizing reality?

Whether it was witnessing Su Xuan kill Bai Yifei with his own eyes or secretly observing Su Xuan slaughter Ji Wuye.

Su Xuan's strength had already made Master Tian Ze feel genuine fear.

This was a person who could only be befriended, not offended.

And in fact, besides this thought, he did indeed harbor gratitude toward Su Xuan.

"He asked me to thank you. If you hadn't killed Bai Yifei, he wouldn't have been able to find the antidote for the Gu insect in the Snow-Clad Castle. At the same time, he also wants to thank you for helping him take revenge."

"Before returning to Baiyue, he felt that this thing was of no use in his hands, so he asked me to pass it to you as a thank-you gift."

"If it were you, perhaps you might be able to find the things on it!"

Yan Lingji slowly relayed Master Tian Ze's words, and at the same time, she also spoke about the object involved in the scroll in her hand.

The four words "Canglong Qisu" were something that those who were unaware had never heard of, but for those who knew, this secret was of great importance.

When Master Tian Ze first came out of the death row, he had thought about searching for the Canglong Qisu as capital for his own rise.

He had the Corpse-Driving Demon dig up the corpse of Wujiu, learned some clues from Wujiu's mouth, and then combined it with the secrets he knew to determine the whereabouts of this scroll.

That night, besides attempting to rescue Yan Lingji and then having his hands broken by Su Xuan, and in order to vent his anger, not hesitating to kidnap Princess Honglian, he actually went to the cold palace of the State of Zheng before going to rescue Yan Lingji and found this map from the cold palace.

After Bai Yifei died, besides healing his wounds and secretly going to the Snow-Clad Castle to find the antidote for the Gu insect, he had also studied this scroll, but in the end, he was disappointed.

Many years had passed since Duke Zhuang of Zheng became a minor hegemon of the Spring and Autumn period with the Canglong Qisu.

Before the State of Zheng perished, this scroll had always been in the hands of the Zheng royal family, but they had never understood the mysteries within. Was this because the Zheng royal family were all mediocre and stupid people?

Perhaps there were individual stupid people, but it was impossible for everyone to be an idiot.

This meant that the mystery of this map could not be understood in a short time, and it must require other things to cooperate. Perhaps the people of the Zheng royal family at that time had already lost those cooperating parts.

Master Tian Ze was a pragmatic person.

Since the Canglong Qisu could no longer be found, this map had no value if it remained in his hands, so he simply gave it to Su Xuan as a thank-you gift.

Su Xuan was proficient in the ways of gods and ghosts, and his methods were unfathomable. If it were him, perhaps he could understand the secrets within.
