Why were you able to come back alive?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In the General’s Mansion, Ji Ji Wuye was furious.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Looking at Bai Feng in front of him, his murderous intent was chilling.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Admittedly, Bai Feng came back alive and brought the news of Mo Ya’s death, but some news is better left untold.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>So, why did Bai Feng have to come back alive? Why didn't he fight to the death with Mo Ya?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He ignored the many reasons Bai Feng stated for assassinating Su Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Although Mo Ya’s reasons were well-fabricated, and he even thought of a retreat—if he succeeded in killing Su Xuan, he could claim it was the Vulture’s doing, and they were acting under the Great General’s orders to capture the Vulture but arrived too late, resulting in this tragedy.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But the prerequisite for all of this was that Su Xuan was dead, and the guards following Su Xuan were also dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This matter did not succeed, and earlier, to interrogate the Vulture, Mo Ya had appeared in the palace. Anyone who had seen him knew that Mo Ya was a subordinate of his, Ji Ji Wuye.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The murderer who killed Liu Yi, the Vulture, was his subordinate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This matter already put him in a difficult position, but it could barely be attributed to the Vulture’s own agenda, that the Vulture had other ambitions.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Then how to explain Mo Ya’s assassination of Su Xuan?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Was it under his, Ji Ji Wuye’s, instruction?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Or was it because Su Xuan revealed the truth of Liu Yi’s death, and Ji Ji Wuye, as the mastermind, was so angry that he decided to kill to silence him?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>If Mo Ya’s assassination attempt had succeeded, it would naturally have been a good thing for Ji Ji Wuye.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But it happened to fail.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This made him extremely passive for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>No, to be precise, from the moment Su Xuan entered the palace, he had been in a passive state.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Passively giving up Emerald Tiger, passively bearing the crime of killing Liu Yi.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Such things would have been impossible in the past.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Night falls over the Han State; he is the master of the Night, the emperor in the darkness of this country. Anyone who dares to defy his will can be killed or spared at his whim.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Su Xuan, Su Xuan...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ji Ji Wuye kept muttering this name, with a gnashing of teeth.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However, at the moment, he could only gnash his teeth like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Mo Ya was the leader of the Hundred Birds organization, with extraordinary strength, and even he died in Su Xuan’s hands. Relying solely on the remaining few of the Hundred Birds to deal with Su Xuan was clearly a pipe dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>In other words, he did not have any experts under his command capable of killing Su Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>According to this trash Bai Feng, Su Xuan killed Mo Ya with one sword, and the Vulture also died in Su Xuan’s hands earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan’s strength made Ji Ji Wuye quite shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Let you be proud for a few days, you won't be proud for long!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ji Ji Wuye thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After Liu Yi died, he had already sent a message to the Blood-Clad Marquis, Bai Bai Yifei.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Liu Yi, as the Left Left Sima, was a heavy minister of military and political affairs. His death caused Ji Ji Wuye’s influence in the court, especially over the military, to weaken somewhat, so he had to summon his most capable assistant back to reverse the disadvantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Blood-Clad Marquis, Bai Bai Yifei, was already on his way back to the court.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As long as Bai Bai Yifei returns, the only thing waiting for Su Xuan is defeat and death.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>However, before that, he still had to do one thing, which was to deal with the King of Han’s questioning.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan was intercepted and killed on his way back to the palace, and the interceptor was his subordinate. This matter, in reason and emotion, had to be given a focus by the King of Han.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Thinking of this, Ji Ji Wuye looked at Bai Feng with anger again.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>It was all this trash!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As Ji Ji Wuye expected, the King of Han’s questioning arrived unexpectedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>When Su Xuan and Han Han Jiuli and the others brought the Vulture’s corpse back to the palace.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The King of Han was first excited that Su Xuan had killed the Vulture at Liu Yi’s residence.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Vulture’s death meant that Liu Yi’s case could be closed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The culprit hidden in the shadows had been eradicated; it was truly a joyous and congratulatory thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Immediately after, he learned that Su Xuan had been ambushed on his way back to the palace. The person who intercepted and killed Su Xuan was the leader of the Hundred Birds organization, Mo Ya, who had entered the palace earlier to be interrogated.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This was a personal guard under Ji Ji Wuye.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He appeared abruptly to intercept and kill Su Xuan; what was his intention?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For a moment, the King of Han was both fearful, worried that something might happen to Su Xuan, and couldn't help but suspect: could Liu Yi’s death really be related to Ji Ji Wuye?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Vulture who killed Liu Yi was Ji Ji Wuye’s subordinate.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Now, after the Vulture was killed by Su Xuan, Ji Ji Wuye’s people came to intercept and kill Su Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This really looked like killing to silence!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because Su Xuan was by his side, the King of Han immediately promised to seek justice for Su Xuan. He wanted to see what Ji Ji Wuye really wanted to do.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>He immediately sent an envoy to Ji Ji Wuye’s mansion to interrogate him.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Not long after, the envoy brought back Ji Ji Wuye’s words.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The meaning was roughly that he was lax in managing his subordinates, that Mo Ya and the Vulture had long been in collusion, and the two intended to plot for Liu Yi’s wealth. Today in the palace, Mo Ya claimed the Vulture had escaped, but in reality, it was him who secretly reported the news, which allowed the Vulture to escape.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After Ji Ji Wuye returned, he found clues, but before he could deal with Mo Ya, Mo Ya had already made his move.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Perhaps it was because he saw the Vulture killed by Su Xuan, and in his grief and indignation, he chose to intercept and kill Su Xuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because in his view, the matter he and the Vulture planned was originally foolproof, and it was Su Xuan who ruined their good deeds.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Dead people cannot speak.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Even if Mo Ya had worked hard for Ji Ji Wuye before and was a subordinate Ji Ji Wuye valued, after he died, he lost all value. Facing the King of Han’s questioning, Ji Ji Wuye simply pushed all the blame onto Mo Ya.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As for Su Xuan mastering the art of communicating with the netherworld and being able to summon ghosts and gods to answer questions?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>For ordinary people, the art of communicating with the netherworld is mysterious.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>But Ji Ji Wuye, as the initial planner of the Ghost Soldier case, knew very well that there were no ghost soldiers, so Su Xuan’s art of communicating with the netherworld was a complete scam, and he didn't care if this statement was exposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ultimately, all the King of Han needed was an answer.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The facts were indeed so.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After receiving Ji Ji Wuye’s reply, although the King of Han still showed anger in front of Su Xuan, he did not excessively pursue Ji Ji Wuye’s guilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Everything was thus smoothed over.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan also noticed this.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"It seems that even the King of Han is extremely wary of Ji Ji Wuye, and he is not as favored as he appears on the surface!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Why does the King of Han favor Ji Ji Wuye?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Isn't it because Ji Ji Wuye’s power is too great? If he offends Ji Ji Wuye too much, the loss will outweigh the gain.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Therefore, the King of Han pretends to favor Ji Ji Wuye while secretly supporting the opposition led by Zhang Kaidi to achieve a balance of power, thereby restraining Ji Ji Wuye, and at the same time, not letting go of any opportunity to strike at Ji Ji Wuye’s forces.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Su Xuan now sees the truth clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The King of Han, although seemingly stupid and incompetent, is after all a king, and having sat in that position for so many years, he still has some depth.\u003C\u002Fp>",1436,"2026-06-17T03:35:52.916Z","2026-06-17T08:59:55.704Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","e1b68cafa2804a2a3e732573c5877fd902bfe617050a40ce23034be1d9527522","great-qin-starting-with-earthly-fiends-and-heave-chapter-44","great-qin-starting-with-earthly-fiends-and-heave-chapter-42",617,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fgreat-qin-starting-with-earthly-fiends-and-heave-cover.jpg"]
