Chapter 500 - 351: Take Care of My Little One_2
Once he couldn’t successfully stop it, let him take out all these auxiliary flags.
Even if the main flag is set up, the array still cannot form.
"Put it here, later I’ll have your master examine what kind of array this is."
He was also very curious in his heart.
Just how did this array locate Ning Xin and the others.
"Yes!"
Qin Ke placed down these small black flags and was about to leave, but was stopped by Chen Xuan, "When you’re ready for your breakthrough, let me know, I’ll protect you."
"Got it, thank you, Master."
Qin Ke didn’t think much of it, especially since a previous breakthrough almost went awry. If Chen Xuan hadn’t intervened in time, he would’ve been finished.
Now he lives in the Three Judicial Departments, while Chen Xuan is in Prince Xuan’s Mansion.
If something went wrong, he would just have to resign himself to fate.
"By the way, do you know how the clone is refined?"
Chen Xuan looked at Gu Pengyou.
"I don’t know!"
She shook her head, then continued, "Not even my second uncle might know, we’ve just heard those three words."
"Mm!"
Chen Xuan nodded, then asked, "Has Gu Yun undergone any changes since becoming the King of Jiuyue Mansion?"
"Changes?"
"I truly don’t know, my second uncle became the King of Jiuyue Mansion before I was born!"
Though she didn’t know why he asked, her keen mind sensed something was off.
"No matter, I’m just asking casually, you two may leave now, I’ll be alone for a while."
The two saw this and then left the grand hall.
Until they returned to the room, Gu Pengyou then spoke, "Don’t you think the question he asked earlier was a bit odd?"
"A bit!"
Xian Si nodded, knowing well that Chen Xuan wasn’t one to meddle in others’ affairs.
Why suddenly ask about the Ancient King?
"Alright, enough thinking, there’s definitely no malice behind it."
"Mm!"
Gu Pengyou trusted but was deeply puzzled.
What changes did second uncle have after becoming Ancient King?
"Should we ask father?"
...
In the grand hall.
Chen Xuan sat in the chair, holding his chin.
He fell into deep thought.
After a long time, a pair of jade hands rested on his shoulders and gently massaged them.
"Thank you, my husband!"
Ning Xin was very moved.
Today, Chen Xuan instructed her to take care of Lan Meng’Er without making an appearance.
He didn’t tell her why.
It wasn’t until she overheard the conversation between Southern King and them that she understood everything.
She realized everything he’s done recently was for her.
Though they’re husband and wife, the risk he took this time deeply touched her.
"Between a couple, there’s no need to say such things. It should be fine now."
Chen Xuan patted her hand.
Though this incident thoroughly offended the Southern King, it didn’t matter anymore.
After all, knowing the truth means he wouldn’t spare them anyway.
Might as well break ties completely.
With the status of Prince Xuan, no matter how bold the Southern King is, he wouldn’t dare act rashly against him.
"However... rebuilding the Ning Family is not feasible for now, you’ll have to wait a bit longer."
After all, his current strength isn’t sufficient.
For rebuilding the Ning Family, it would have to wait until he emerges from the Burial Ground.
"No rush, this is good already."
Ning Xin understood the situation.
Rebuilding the Ning Family now would be too perilous.
Besides, in her heart, how could the Ning Family compare to Chen Xuan.
As long as Chen Xuan is fine, she’d be willing to live this way forever.
As for Ning Family... let it be!
"Rest assured, what I’ve promised you, I’ll definitely accomplish, it’s only a matter of time."
...
Pang Family.
"Father, it was too dangerous this time, last thing I expected was the Southern King showing up."
Pang Yun expressed a look of lingering fear.
Even though Pang Sida was protected by the Profound Yellow Tower, he was only at Half-Step Dao Realm, and the difference in power was too great.
If Jing Shishu hadn’t appeared at the last moment, if the Southern King decided to move against them, even with the Profound Yellow Tower, they would have died!
"What thing comes without risk?"
Pang Sida had a calm demeanor.
"In any case, at least the result was good. Now, in the entire Molan Mansion, it’s just our Pang Family that’s connected to this Prince Xuan."
"Moreover..."
"This Prince Xuan isn’t ordinary. Just being able to invite the Grand Commander of the Dragon Guard, whether it’s Qin Ying’s favor or something else, it proves his future is boundless."
"This time, our Pang Family has profited!"
Although the Imperial Capital Pang Family asked him to associate with Chen Xuan, initially he was just complying.
Now, he’s truly grateful he made a move.
Establishing ties with Chen Xuan, without relying on the awe of the Imperial Capital Pang Family, henceforth, no one in Molan Mansion will dare move against the Pang Family.
In fact... by relying on their strength, they could re-enter Imperial City.
Wash away the shame of their lineage back in those days.
Of course, this is merely his thought, the key is whether their Pang Family can hold onto Chen Xuan’s support.
"Indeed!"
Pang Yun instantly smiled.
"Father, you should have seen their expressions, truly colorful."
The families regretted, to a man.
But... there’s no medicine for regret in this world.
"Alright, take care of yourself, don’t worry about others!"
Pang Sida admonished.
At times like this, it’s crucial to remain low-key and cautious, taking nothing for granted.
"In a few days, I’ll pay a visit to Prince Xuan, you should come along."
A few days remain before Emperor Yu’s deadline for Southern King, during which he probably won’t have time to meet.
Wait until then to proceed.
"Perfect, in a few days, the elixirs from Imperial City will arrive, we can bring them along as a gift to Prince Xuan!"
"Not this time, find a suitable occasion later."
