Chapter 292
Tian Guang had always been within the territory of the Qin state. Earlier, it was he who brought the Six Elders out of the Six Sages Tomb and brought them to Lord Changping Jun to introduce them.
After the Six Elders failed to ambush Su Xuan, because their whereabouts were unknown, and Lord Changping Jun guessed that the Six Elders might have failed the ambush and fled, Tian Guang ran to look for the whereabouts of the Six Elders again.
He was not a stupid person, and of course, he also guessed another result.
That was that the Six Elders did not flee, but… were killed!
But from the perspective of the Nongjia, as the Xia Kui, Tian Guang could not accept such a result. He believed more in the strength of the Six Elders. After all, they were six top experts who, when joining forces, could even kill Bai Qi.
Su Xuan was strong, but he was only twenty years old, and each of the Six Elders had at least decades of cultivation time, not to mention that they also mastered the Ze-24.
Su Xuan retreating unscathed from their ambush and making that ambush fail was already incredible. How could he kill the Six Elders?
Tian Guang firmly believed that the Six Elders had fled, just because of some reason, they did not contact the Nongjia for the time being.
He led the Nongjia disciples to search for a long time within the Qin state, but he never found the whereabouts of the Six Elders.
It was not until he received the message from Lord Changping Jun that he came to Lord Changping Jun again. Compared to finding the whereabouts of the Six Elders, Lord Changping Jun was obviously more important. It was just that he did not know what important matter Lord Changping Jun had to find him for.
"The Six Elders, I'm afraid they have already been killed!"
After seeing Tian Guang, Lord Changping Jun spoke and directly told a piece of bad news.
"How could that be?!"
Tian Guang's expression changed slightly, and he could not accept it.
Lord Changping Jun explained, "I didn't believe it either, until today, Su Xuan found me and gave me a gift!"
After hearing the name "Su Xuan," Tian Guang's gaze suddenly focused.
He had not dealt with Su Xuan, but he was definitely not unfamiliar with this person. The earliest attention to this person was because of Yan Dan's death, and later he learned from the spies the Nongjia had planted in the Mohist School that it was Su Xuan who saved the Six-Fingered Black Hero.
It could be said that this person indirectly ruined their plan to assassinate the King of Qin.
If Su Xuan had not secretly saved the Six-Fingered Black Knight, Jing Ke would not have given up on the assassination.
Later, Su Xuan became famous throughout the world in the Battle of Daliang, which completely made Lord Lord Changping develop murderous intent toward him, leading to him inviting the six great elders to kill Su Xuan.
As a result, he did not expect that the six great elders would fail.
Tian Guang's mood suddenly became extremely complex. He looked at Lord Lord Changping and asked, "What gift?"
Lord Lord Changping took Tian Guang to a certain part of the house, and soon, Tian Guang saw the gift Su Xuan had sent.
"These things are..."
Looking at the broken weapons and the Nine-Star Pearl Grass, Tian Guang's body trembled slightly, and his expression revealed a hint of pain.
The six great elders were Nongjia seniors a generation higher than him. Before he succeeded as Xia Kui, he had also received their teachings. Tian Guang had always regarded them as teachers, but he never expected that they would come out of the mountains for his sake, only to never return, having been killed in Qin.
"Su... Xuan!!"
Tian Guang coldly uttered this name, his words filled with deep murderous intent and anger.
Even if the six great elders were killed, even if the cause was that they had ambushed Su Xuan first, Tian Guang did not care about that. What he cared about was that Su Xuan had killed the six great elders. From now on, Su Xuan was the common enemy of the entire Nongjia.
Even if he was the leader of the Yin-Yang School, even if his strength was great, if there was a chance, Tian Guang vowed to kill him.
After expressing his murderous intent toward Su Xuan, Tian Guang looked at Lord Lord Changping again, "I wonder why you called me here, my lord?"
Lord Lord Changping had said in his message that there was an important matter to discuss. The so-called important matter was clearly not just to show him the relics of the six great elders.
"The six great elders have met with disaster, and Su Xuan sent these things to me. I have likely already been exposed. Xianyang is no longer safe. Continuing to stay in Xianyang will only put me in a dangerous situation."
Tian Guang had followed Lord Lord Changping for many years and immediately understood his meaning, "I will arrange for people to escort you out of Xianyang immediately!"
Lord Lord Changping nodded and continued, "After all, I am the Left Chancellor of Qin. Leaving for no reason will likely alert Ying Zheng. I want Mr. Tian Guang to escort my family out first..."
Lord Lord Changping's family actually did not have many people, only one daughter, Mi Hong Lian.
His wife had passed away from illness long ago, and after her death, he did not remarry. Because of this, he doted on his only daughter, Mi Hong Lian, to the bone.
Tian Guang understood that Lord Lord Changping asking him to escort Mi Hong Lian out first at this time was to prevent any worries behind him.
After giving instructions to Tian Guang, Lord Lord Changping soon found Mi Hong Lian.
"Father!"
Upon seeing Lord Lord Changping, Mi Hong Lian bowed respectfully.
"Hong Lian'er, this is Mr. Tian Guang. You must not be unfamiliar with him!" He introduced Tian Guang to Mi Hong Lian.
Mi Hong Lian nodded. She had met Tian Guang a few times, but she did not know his identity or background.
Lord Lord Changping continued, "In the coming period, there may be some turmoil in Xianyang. To prevent any accidents, I want you to leave Xianyang temporarily!"
"Father?!"
Hearing this, Mi Hong Lian's expression changed instantly. She was a smart person and immediately realized something.
Lord Lord Changping did not explain much, just looked at his daughter and said in a cautionary tone, "I hope you can remember that you are a person of Chu!"
"A person of Chu?"
Mi Hong Lian sighed softly in her heart and did not say much.
As a daughter, she knew her father's obsessions all too well. Since she was very young, her father had taught her the etiquette of Chu and told her many stories about Chu.
Tian Guang's people arrived soon.
They escorted Mi Hong Lian, preparing to take her out of Xianyang secretly.
As for the escort, Tian Guang did not participate personally because after Lord Lord Changping said those words, Tian Guang realized that Xianyang was no longer a safe place. Lord Lord Changping staying here might encounter danger, so he had to stay by Lord Lord Changping's side to protect his safety.
Tian Guang did not know that the people he sent to escort Mi Hong Lian out of Xianyang were intercepted on a mountain road shortly after leaving the city.
With a burst of energy, the person driving the carriage and those escorting it all fell to the ground dead.
Mi Hong Lian in the carriage heard the screams and felt the carriage stop. She quickly pushed aside the curtain, only to see a familiar figure appearing before her.
"Miss Mi Hong Lian, where are you planning to go?"
