The rules of the world were fair.
The stronger they were, the higher the price they had to pay.
Slave Xiu still said nothing.
She was wrong. It wasn’t doubled. It was several times, ten times.
Su Xiaoxiao let the little bear cub drink from the milk bottle while she took out
Wei Ting’s iron bell. “Have you seen this iron bell somewhere?”
Su Xiaoxiao had just done a genetic test on him and Wei Ting, and the results showed that he was not related to Wei Ting.
However, his reaction to the iron bell was so big that Su Xiaoxiao felt that he should have seen the exact same iron bell before. He might even have an unforgettable interaction with the owner of the iron bell. That person would not be Wei Ting or Wei Liulang.
Wei Liulang clearlv did not know Slave Xiu.
Slave Xiu still remained silent.
The little bear cub seemed to be a little dissatisfied with Su Xiaoxiao feeding it and looking at others. It raised one of its feet against the milk bottle and freed a chubby little bear claw to pull at Su Xiaoxiao. It seemed to be saying, “Look at the baby.”
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and pinched its little bear claws.
So soft.
Slave Xiu walked over, bent down, picked up the sword on the ground, and left the cave without looking back.
The man and bear who had fought at the entrance of the cave did not move.
In their timeout, they were not allowed to move.
Su Xiaoxiao came out with the baby and b.u.mped into Wei Ting, who was carrying a water bag.
Wei Ting looked at Slave Xiu’s gradually departing figure with a complicated expression.
“Are you really not going to stop him?” Su Xiaoxiao asked. “He’s very weak now. It’s very easy to stop him.” “No need,” Wei Ting said.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Oh.”
After dawn, Su Xiaoxiao bade farewell to the big black bear and its cub and returned to the temporary courtyard with Wei Ting and the Old Marquis. Yuchi Xiu continued to hide in the dark.
As for why they did not take the opportunity to a.s.sa.s.sinate MO Guiyuan after Slave Xiu left his side, it was not that they did not go.
Yuchi Xiu secretly went to the courtyard where he met MO Guiyuan, but it was already empty.
MO Guiyuan, this sly old fox, must have realized that the Medicine Master of the Western Jin had been killed. He realized that the situation was not good and hurriedly switched to another place to settle down.
The peach forest was so big. It was hard to say if they would find MO Guiyuan first or fall into the trap in the forest.
Especially since a certain someone was so unlucky.
“Don’t worry, he will take the initiative to visit,” Wei Ting said.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “How did you know?”
Wei Ting said, “I know him. He lost his chips one after another. I’m afraid he can’t sit still anymore.”
The three of them entered the courtyard and the first person they saw was Jing Yi.
Jing Yi had long discovered that Wei Ting and the Old Marquis had gone out at night. He was not surprised to see them return.
Until… he saw Su Xiaoxiao.
The young man’s cold eyes instantly lit up.
“You’re here?”
He walked forward and took the initiative to take the bag from Wei Ting and the Old Marquis.
He did not need to ask to know that these things were hers.
Wei Ting frowned. He had found this kid to be more and more unpleasant recently.
Su Xiaoxiao entered Wei Ting’s room.
Jing Yi poked her shoulder and deliberately said, “He’s a guard. Men and women shouldn’t be so close.”
The corners of Wei Ting’s mouth twitched. How could Jing Yi not tell who he was?
Su Xiaoxiao blinked. “It’s fine. I’ll have an affair.”
Ads by PubFuture Wei Ting was speechless. Was it okay for him to cheat with Su Xiaoxiao on himself?
After the two of them entered the room,
Jing Yi stood at the door with deep hatred.
Xiao Zhonghua slowly walked over and stabbed back. “She’s not yours either.” Jing Yi was silent.
Jing Yi didn’t have romantic feelings for Su Xiaoxiao, but it was precisely because of this that he grabbed the horse even more.
After all, there would not be many compet.i.tors if she only had one husband.
Su Xiaoxiao had a total of six brothers.
Jing Yi squatted on the ground and picked at the wall.
On the other side, Slave Xiu entered an underground pa.s.sage.
A disciple came forward. “Lord Slave Xiu, the Sect Master is waiting for you.” This was what made MO Guiyuan so powerful.
Unless he was willing, even Slave Xiu did not know where he would hide.
The disciple brought Slave Xiu to an underground secret room.
MO Guiyuan had not slept the entire night, and his brows were covered in fatigue and gloom.
“You’re back.”
He looked at Slave Xiu and said.
Slave Xiu nodded slightly.
“The few of you, retreat,” MO Guiyuan said.
The disciples retreated, leaving Zhang Feng beside him.
MO Guiyuan looked at his pale face. “Why were you gone for so long? I almost thought something had happened to you.”
MO Guiyuan knew that sacrificial soldiers had weak periods. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have invited a medicine master from the Western Jin to the White Lotus Society to protect Slave Xiu after he fought with someone.
Of course, with Slave Xiu’s current martial arts attainment, there were very few people who could make him seriously injured. Those harmless fighting and killing would not let him enter a weak period.
MO Guiyuan said, “Looks like my grandson is very difficult to deal with.”
Slave Xiu said nothing.
MO Guiyuan said, “Go treat your injuries.”
Slave Xiu turned around and left. MO Guiyuan said again, “The Medicine Master is dead.”
Slave Xiu paused and walked out.
After returning to his hut, he lay on the hard bed as a terrifying figure flashed across his mind.
There was a rusty iron bell hanging from the man’s waist. It would no longer make any sound.
It was old and tattered and ugly.
There was once a sacrificial soldier who wanted to pull it, but his hand was cut off by that person.
Ever since then, all the sacrificial soldiers knew that that small broken iron bell was that person’s taboo.
As Wei Ting had expected, MO Guiyuan appeared.
That night, MO Guiyuan personally came to negotiate with the Imperial Court for the third time.
Slave Xiu was also there.
He was no longer weak at dawn. He had already recovered to his peak state.
MO Guiyuan sat down at the other master seat beside Xiao Zhonghua, followed by the First Elder and the others.
The Old Marquis and Leng Tiannan sat down opposite them.
Wei Ting stood behind the Old Marquis as a guard.
Su Xiaoxiao was catching up on sleep in the room.
MO Guiyuan did not seem to recognize Wei Ting. He calmly cupped his hands at
Xiao Zhonghua. “Your Highness.”
Xiao Zhonghua smiled. “It’s really not easy to meet the Sect Master.”
MO Guiyuan said dignifiedly, “There are many common affairs in the sect. It’s my fault for neglecting the Third Prince.”
Xiao Zhonghua said calmly, “So Sect Master’s surname is MO?”
The Sect Master of the White Lotus Society was too mysterious, and everyone addressed him as Sect Master. Even Leader Chen did not know his background and ident.i.ty.
MO Guiyuan smiled and said, “I have something to say to the Third Prince alone. I wonder if it’s convenient?”
Xiao Zhonghua looked at the Old Marquis and the others and nodded slightly.
The Old Marquis and the others strode out.
The Great Elder and the others also retreated to the courtyard.
Only Jing Yi and Slave Xiu were left in the room.
Xiao Zhonghua said bluntly, “I’ve already explained the sincerity of the Imperial Court to the elders yesterday. I wonder if Sect Master MO has thought it through?”
MO Guiyuan smiled. “Your Highness, why don’t we make a new deal? My White Lotus Society is still regarded as the Orthodoxy, and the Emperor of Great Zhou will still acknowledge me as the State Preceptor.. However, why don’t we change the candidate for the Emperor?”
