Chapter 64

Zi Nu brought Wei Zhuang and the complex-looking Zhang Liang to Su Xuan’s place soon.

When they knocked on the door.

After Su Xuan opened the door, the first thing they saw was the messy room.

Zi Nu’s mouth twitched.

She had just had someone clean the room, how did it become like this in such a short time!

Is this guy too sloppy?

Is he the King of Sloppiness?

Su Xuan noticed Zi Nu’s gaze and explained to her: "I brought some things out of the palace, and I didn't have time to organize them, so I just piled them on the floor for now."

Zi Nu listened to Su Xuan’s explanation, and her curiosity grew stronger.

According to Su Xuan, these things were brought out of the palace, but Su Xuan came empty-handed earlier, and it didn't look like he had brought many things.

Could it be that in this short time, he went out again and moved these things in?

Zi Nu glanced at the things piled messily in the room and recognized what they were: herbs and elixirs.

It was no secret that Su Xuan had refined elixirs for the King of Han and was skilled in alchemy, but she didn't expect him to bring so many herbs out of the palace.

Su Xuan didn't explain to Zi Nu how he brought these herbs out.

Could it be that his 'Pot Heaven' technique was not yet perfect, and the Sumeru space condensed in his sleeves with magic power couldn't last too long? After arriving at Zilan Xuan, it was already faintly unable to maintain itself, so he had to release the things hidden in his sleeves?

Since he didn't want to explain, Su Xuan could only change the subject and asked Zi Nu: "Did you come here because you have something to ask?"

Talking to smart people is easy.

Zi Nu sighed in her heart.

She didn't beat around the bush and asked Su Xuan: "Are you Tian Ze’s accomplice?"

Su Xuan didn't expect Zi Nu to ask such a question, but he answered truthfully: "The woman in the next room is named Yan Yan Lingji, and she was once a member of the Regarding Baiyue assassin group under Tian Ze!"

Hearing this, Zi Nu thought she had the answer, and her tone became subtle: "In other words, you are Tian Ze’s person?"

Wei Zhuang and Zhang Liang’s gazes toward Su Xuan also became unfriendly.

Since Tian Ze appeared, in just a few days, he and his Regarding Baiyue assassin group had caused a storm in the city.

First, there was a fire in the city, many people died in the fire, and then Tian Ze broke into the palace and kidnapped Princess Princess Honglian.

Although Wei Zhuang, Zhang Liang, and others wanted to topple Ji Ji Wuye, this didn't mean they identified with Tian Ze. No matter what difficulties Tian Ze had, Han and Regarding Baiyue were always enemies.

"I said, she was once a member under Tian Ze!" Su Xuan said calmly, feeling the unfriendly gazes of the people in front of him: "I made a bet with her. If I lose, I will serve Tian Ze. If she loses, she will serve me as her master!"

"I am very lucky; I won this bet!"

Zi Nu, Wei Zhuang, and Zhang Liang listened to Su Xuan’s explanation and learned the relationship between Yan Yan Lingji and Su Xuan. They were stunned for a long time. Finally, Zi Nu sighed: "That is truly an unexpected answer."

Wei Zhuang also asked Su Xuan in a deep voice: "Can you tell us what kind of bet it was?"

"A bet with Tian Ze’s life as the price!"

Another unexpected answer, and also shocking.

Although Su Xuan didn't explain the details of the bet, just by this sentence, Wei Zhuang, Zi Nu, and others could roughly guess the specific content.

The so-called bet was probably a battle between Su Xuan and Tian Ze. If he lost, he would have to serve Tian Ze. If he won, Yan Yan Lingji would have to serve Su Xuan to exchange for Tian Ze’s safe departure.

After guessing the general content, they couldn't help but think of Tian Ze kidnapping Princess Princess Honglian last night.

Could it be that because Tian Ze was defeated by Su Xuan and lost Yan Yan Lingji, he kidnapped Princess Princess Honglian to vent his anger?

This conjecture had some basis.

But as for the truth, sometimes before it is revealed, no one knows how twisted and bizarre it will be.

"If you have anything else to ask, it’s best to wait until Han Fei returns, so you don't have to come here again later."

Su Xuan said to Zi Nu and the others.

Zi Nu and the others did have some things they wanted to ask, but after hearing this, they decisively chose to shut up.

Such a thing happened in the palace.

Whether this matter was Su Xuan’s doing or whether it had anything to do with him, the most important thing was to see how Han Fei viewed it.

He was, after all, the son of the King of Han, the Ninth Young Master.

If he determined that Su Xuan harmed the King of Han, they, as Han Fei’s friends, would choose to stand on Han Fei’s side and become hostile to Su Xuan.

Even if Su Xuan was a very good partner before this.

Han Fei arrived at Zilan Xuan in the evening.

He looked depressed and sorrowful.

Last night, Princess Honglian was kidnapped, and her whereabouts were unknown. No one knew what her situation was.

This morning, his father had an accident.

Even though he keenly noticed that there were hidden secrets behind his father’s accident, this couldn't change the fact that his father was dying.

As an older brother, he failed to protect his younger sister; as a son, he was powerless regarding his father’s condition.

Since returning to the country, he had never been as frustrated as he was at this moment.

When he was in the palace, he gradually understood that he was powerless regarding his father’s affairs; after all, life and death are determined by fate.

But he must rescue Princess Honglian.

This was also the reason why he came straight to Zilan Xuan after leaving the palace.

He needed the help of Wei Zhuang and others; he needed them to help rescue Princess Honglian.

After arriving at Zilan Xuan and seeing Wei Zhuang, Han Fei spoke directly without any hesitation: "Brother Wei Zhuang, I need your help!"

Wei Zhuang’s expression tightened. He could hear that Han Fei’s tone was extremely complex.

After being silent for a while, he said: "Helping you is not urgent for now. There is someone you probably need to see!"

And so, Su Xuan saw Wei Zhuang, Zi Nu, and the others again.

Unlike before, this time, the four giants of Quicksand were gathered, and Han Fei had also arrived.

After seeing Su Xuan, even though Han Fei had some guesses about his father’s death in his heart, the official explanation was that Su Xuan colluded with Tian Ze and secretly poisoned his father, causing him to become like that.

Therefore, a deep coldness appeared on his face: "It’s you, Su Xuan!"

"The Ninth Young Master has such great hostility in his words. Do you also think I harmed the King of Han?" Su Xuan said in a ghostly tone, and the murderous intent toward Ji Ji Wuye in his heart became even sharper.

He really couldn't like Ji Ji Wuye.

Whether before or now, especially after Ji Ji Wuye framed him, he could no longer suppress the murderous intent in his heart.

"Whether it is or not, is it important? When everyone believes it is your doing, even if you didn't do it, no one will be willing to listen to your explanation." Han Fei said coldly.

"The Ninth Young Master sees things very clearly." Su Xuan sighed, and his tone changed: "Then, is the Ninth Young Master also like those vulgar people, unwilling to listen to my explanation?"

Han Fei was startled and fell silent. After a long time, he asked Su Xuan in a hoarse voice: "Was my father’s matter your doing?"

"No, this is Ji Ji Wuye’s frame-up!"

Su Xuan answered decisively.

Han Fei looked deeply at Su Xuan, not knowing whether he should believe him.

This was, after all, just Su Xuan’s one-sided statement.

However, he had made up his mind: no matter what the truth was, he would definitely find it out.

And currently, the most important thing was to find Princess Honglian’s whereabouts and rescue her.

He had wanted to make this request to Wei Zhuang earlier, but was interrupted by him. Now, after seeing Su Xuan, Han Fei ignored Su Xuan’s presence and said directly to Wei Zhuang: "Brother Wei Zhuang, I want to ask you to help me rescue Princess Honglian."

Wei Zhuang nodded and agreed to this matter.

Su Xuan’s voice sounded again from the side: "If it’s Princess Princess Honglian, I might know her whereabouts!"

Han Fei, Wei Zhuang, Zi Nu, and Zhang Liang all turned their heads to look at Su Xuan.

Su Xuan was stared at by the four of them and looked helpless: "Don't look at me like that. It’s Yan Yan Lingji. Yan Yan Lingji might know Tian Ze’s whereabouts."
