Chapter 357: Traveling Together to Qi

Upon seeing this figure, Han Fei's expression suddenly became somewhat complex.

Simply because this person is Su Xuan!

The State of Han was destroyed by the State of Qin. Logically speaking, Han Fei should hate the State of Qin and hate the King of Qin, but in reality, he did not.

The main reason is that the State of Qin saved many of the people of the State of Han, and at the same time, the relatives and friends Han Fei cares about are also living well in the State of Qin due to the protection of the King of Qin.

Although initially he held a grudge regarding the destruction of the State of Han by Qin, as time passed and the State of Qin destroyed several more countries, this feeling of resentment also began to fade.

Han Fei had to admit that Ying Zheng is truly the number one heroic and wise ruler in the world!

With the State of Qin in his hands, achieving an unprecedented great cause will be a matter of course.

Since the State of Han has already perished, and he himself is a person with considerable ambition, he might as well participate in it and help the State of Qin complete this task; that way, he can also feel a sense of shared honor.

But there is one person whom Han Fei has always viewed with complex feelings.

That is Su Xuan.

Years ago, during a great drought in the State of Han, he and Wei Zhuang went to the State of Wei to borrow grain. They went through great hardships to borrow the grain, but before they could transport it back to the State of Han to resolve the disaster in the country, they encountered Su Xuan, who intercepted them, causing everything they had done to fall short of success.

As a chain reaction, the price was the destruction of the State of Han.

It was only after defecting to the State of Qin that Han Fei learned that the series of events targeting the State of Han were all the work of Su Xuan. It was indeed related to Su Xuan; after all, after Ji Ji Wuye died, the Nightfall was used by Su Xuan.

In the event of the destruction of the State of Han, the Nightfall played an extremely disgraceful role.

Therefore, for a period of time after the destruction of the State of Han, he felt both hatred and resentment toward Su Xuan, but even if he hated Su Xuan, he never thought about seeking revenge on him.

The main reason was that Su Xuan's status in the State of Qin was too special. If he were to deal with Su Xuan, it would very likely destroy the peaceful life he currently had and subsequently implicate those around him.

Later, another event made Han Fei's feelings toward Su Xuan even more complex.

This matter was related to Hong Hong Lian.

Even though he tried his best to prevent Hong Hong Lian and Su Xuan from having contact, and never even mentioned Su Xuan in front of Hong Hong Lian, it still did not change the impression Su Xuan had left on Hong Hong Lian years ago.

Hong Hong Lian had fallen in love with Su Xuan!

Later, by a stroke of fate, she met Su Xuan again.

After learning that Hong Hong Lian had met Su Xuan, he had tried to stop Hong Hong Lian, but in the end, he could not. Thus, after much contemplation, he could only give his sister his blessing.

At this moment, in front of the Zhangtai Palace, after hearing Su Xuan's words, Han Fei was silent for a long time before saying: "It is Han Fei's honor to be able to travel with Mr. Su!"

"Really?" Su Xuan did not believe him. "I thought that upon hearing this, you would be saying 'bad luck' in your heart!"

Han Fei was silent. It was indeed bad luck. He really did not want to travel with Su Xuan. The last time they traveled together was when he was intercepted by Su Xuan, and it was after that journey that he heard the news of the destruction of the State of Han.

But now, Su Xuan was actually preparing to go to the Confucian school with him. What exactly was his purpose?

Based on Han Fei's consistent understanding of Su Xuan, he believed it was definitely not anything good.

Could this person be trying to destroy the Confucian school?

Destroying one of the Hundred Schools of Thought seems incredible, but Su Xuan has a criminal record; the matter of the Agricultural School is still circulating in the world of martial arts.

Many thoughts arose in Han Fei's heart, but he was powerless to stop Su Xuan from traveling with him.

Since Su Xuan appeared here and said such things, it meant that this matter was with the tacit approval of Ying Zheng.

He put away his thoughts and said to Su Xuan: "If you have time, go see Hong Hong Lian more often. She misses you!"

So, in fact, he did not approve of Hong Hong Lian being with Su Xuan.

Hong Hong Lian could not handle a person like Su Xuan.

Coupled with Su Xuan's ethereal whereabouts, no one knew where he had gone. It had been a long time since Hong Hong Lian last saw Su Xuan.

Su Xuan nodded gently.

After being reminded by Han Fei, Su Xuan also realized that he had indeed disappeared for a long time again.

Thus, he deliberately set aside some time to accompany the women with whom he had a deep relationship.

Hong Hong Lian, Yan Yan Lingji, and Lady Mingzhu, who had been the first to win his favor, were all among them. In his spare time, he also went to listen to Nong Yu's zither and watched Xue Nu's dance...

Although Su Xuan was addicted to cultivation and longed to pursue more powerful strength.

But as he was now, he was not yet prepared to give up his identity as a "human," so sometimes, he did not mind enjoying the beauty of the mortal world.

Unfortunately, the good days are always short.

Time easily casts people aside.

In the blink of an eye, the day arrived for Han Fei to go on his mission to the Confucian school.

Although Su Xuan could go to the Confucian school alone, after thinking about it, he decided it would be better to travel with Han Fei.

On this day, Han Fei saw Su Xuan. He had thought that only Su Xuan would accompany him, but he discovered that beside Su Xuan was a graceful and beautiful woman.

This caused Han Fei's eyebrows to lift slightly.

It seemed that by Su Xuan's side, there was never a shortage of women: Yan Yan Lingji from the beginning, later the Eastern Sovereign and Moon Goddess of the Yin-Yang School, the Tide Tide Siren who had attached herself to Su Xuan at some unknown time... and old friends like Zi Nu and Nong Yu who had joined the Yin-Yang School.

Han Fei also knew a little about the existence of these people.

But now, he was somewhat unfamiliar with this woman following Su Xuan; it was his first time seeing her.

"Her name is Jing Ni. She will be traveling with us this time to the Little Sage Manor."

Su Xuan introduced her to Han Fei, and seeing Han Fei's furrowed brows, he added an explanation: "She is going to the Little Sage Manor to visit an old friend."

Han Fei's brows relaxed, and he nodded slightly.

The name Jing Ni reminded him of many things.

Undoubtedly, this was not a normal person's name. Among the Eight Swords of the King of Yue, there happened to be a sword called Jing Ni. This could not help but remind him of the former Xuan Xuan Jian. If his expectations were correct, this woman named Jing Ni was an assassin, a Heaven-grade first-class from the Net.

What old friend could a Heaven-grade first-class from the Net have in the Confucian school?

Are you sure she isn't going to carry out a mission?

Han Fei could not help but think again of Su Xuan's criminal record of destroying the Agricultural School, and he felt more and more that Ying Zheng sending him on a mission to the Confucian school was just a pretext, and the real purpose was to let Su Xuan and Jing Ni carry out certain tasks.
