Chapter 154 (1/2)
Soot up froish; he appeared to still be recovering from his emotions fro spent ether, Fan Xian discovered all the parts were in excellent condition; even the scope Only now did Fan Xian realize how stupid he was for kicking that chest
Fan Xian knew nothing of et fa to use it, he discovered that reality was shockingly different froined—when you find sunshi+ne in your dreae distance; how to ai runs se that nobody in this world knew Without a teacher, Fan Xian could only try to find out hiet, the harder it was to hit As for the effects of the wind, that was an even ood points to compensate for such difficulties Firstly, he was very calm; almost as cal zhenqi enabled his body toperiods of time Most importantly, he was patient; he had the patience of a seasoned hunter That was due to his encounters in his previous life and the ”naps” froy to do so, Fan Xian believed that he could hideup from the snow, he felt the cold had turned his body stiff and nu his zhenqi, he recovered his nu like a flagpole He shook his head, ”If I’ht not be able to shoot before he kills me with an arrow”
Wu Zhu said coldly, ”You have no need for that”
Fan Xian didn’t really understand what Wu Zhuthe sniper rifle ”I know very well that ht, but below nine You’ve been keeping the fact froant But if I have to deal with some ninth-ranked masters in the future, it would be better for me to have a weapon no one knows about”
Wu Zhu said, ”By my standards, your rank is still seventh”
Fan Xian chuckled at hi pal Dian ranks eighth, Cheng Jushu ranks seventh at most Perhaps… while I spent the past dozen years in Danzhou, the quality of one down across the world”
Fan Xian frowned and dusted the snow off his hips Although he didn’t say anything, Wu Zhu’s words still gave hie, Fan Xian couldn’t explain He shook his head, ”I , or else I can’t protect those around me; Wan’er and the royal faet, she is also a poor child who greithout a mother”
Wu Zhu was silent
Fan Xian sentle and clear light of theWu Zhu’s black blindfold, which had gathered a few specks of snow, Fan Xian suddenly had an idea and did what he never dared to do growing up
He took a step forward, carefully reaching out his hand to reentle
Wu Zhu took a step back, which brought hie of the cliff without any distance to spare Fan Xian’s right hand stopped aardly in midair, inches from Wu Zhu’s face
”Time to return” Wu Zhu took the sniper rifle fro into the place where Wu Zhu disappeared, a sense of sadness gushed forth fro and peerless person who remembered only a fraction of his past; ould he be like in the future?
The e of tireat self-discipline to train in ht, he would ht with Wu Zhu For the rest of the days, he er sister As the girls gathered in the yard to co, and play cards, days passed
Ye Ling’er and Rou Jia also dropped by and stayed for a bit Naturally, they held a sotten over her sadness fro eyes, she asked to hear Fan cohtest, Fan Xian escaped at the first opportunity
Toward the end of the year, Fan Sizhe finally got away froe up theIn his eyes, finding Lin Wan’er at a ga a worthy rival Human lives could be lonely like snowflakes
As the Fan siblings gathered, Fan Xian, being the young ’s wounds had healed, so Fan Xian asked hi party was protected by wang Qinian's group, so there probably wouldn't be any problems
One day after lunch, Fan Xian asked servants to prepare a carriage Together with Lin Wan’er, they descended down the mountains to welco party After the carriage and carts stopped, Teng Zijing quickly went forward to greet Fan Xian and the ruling Lady Lin Wan’er knew this man was Fan Xian’s first aide when he arrived in the capital, so she was exceeding kind to reply But she couldn’t help by be distracted by the carriage
”Little Xianxian”
Needless to say, that was Dabao calling Fan Xian Fan Xian couldn’t help but sreet his chubby brother-in-lahom he hadn’t seen in months Fascinated by the hed ”There's not nearly as much snow back in the capital”
Snow fell heavily in the Cang Mountains Much of it accu at the snow on her brother’s hair, Lin Wan’er walked up and brushed it off She then put the fox pelt cloak she brought onto him ”That father of ours, seriously He knew it’d be cold in the mountains, why didn’t he prepare more clothes?”
Fan Xian only smiled The prime minister was a man, and there weren’t many women in Lin manor As much as the prime minister treasured Dabao, he couldn’t cover every aspect Fan Xian then turned to ask Teng Zijing, ”Did anything happen on the way here?”
”No” Teng Zijing answered, ”Although, when entering the e They sae came from the pri the snow and avoiding summer heat; these were the favorite pasti up to the uard the passes Hearing there were no major incidents, Fan Xian o back
At that moment, the sound of horses could be heard behind thees caressive manner They were currently at a fork in the road, so for thesee said so Master, I spared you sory”
The leading carriage driver saw the pileup and began swearing Fan Xian squinted in that direction and recognized Guo You’s carriage Fan Xian s carriage driver realized he was shouting at people from the prime minister’s manor The standoff suddenly became less heated
”Even if you are from the prime minister’s manor, you shouldn’t block the path We already made way for you once Can you hurry up?” A voice canized its owner
Ie He pointed at Teng Zijing’s party and scolded, ”Why are you still in the way? Prime Minister Lin is still in the capital What are you lot doing in the Cang Mountains?”
”Guo Baokun?” Fan Xian was overjoyed and waved
Hearing somebody call out to hiht it was someone he was close with So he turned with a war Fan Xian, that s him look incredibly aard There was some nervousness and fear in his eyes ”Who is that? That’s Fan Xian…”
During the poetry gathering, at capital court, and in the Imperial palace; Guo Baokun had alienated Fan Xian numerous times To Guo Baokun’s misfortune, Fan Xian was one who stirred up the capital Every time there was conflict, Fan Xian would pay it back in full Now that Fan Xian hadmade Guo Baokun accept his bad luck Until now, all he had hoped for was to never run into Fan Xian ever again But who knew fate could be so cruel?
Looking at Guo Baokun, Fan Xian thought, ”This fellow’s luck is so bad it would ain?”
Seeing Guorabbits, Fan Xian flexed his wrists Lin Wan’er walked over and lowered her voice, ”Why do you chase them away for no reason? His rank aside, he is still a civil servant close to the prince Not toMountain is not Fan… ours If other people find out about this, they would sure to call us uncivilized”
”I didn’t chase the his wife, a mischievous so visit hiht for some tea I didn’t know they’d run away”
Fan Xian spoke those words with such gentleness he h She said, ”Oh you, who in the capital doesn’t knoas you who beat hiht? Of course he’d run away He couldn’t match you in fame or prowess What other choice did he have?”
Fan Xian chuckled ”I, too, feel bad for hiht letters In the had happened at the Imperial court But from the contents, it didn’t appear to involve the Eldest Princess, so what could it be? He then opened wang Qinian's letter and put the two letters together Everythingbusiness run politics Now it’s the Council How long is this going to continue for?” Looking at the dark, snowy sky outside the , Fan Xian shook his head
He knew that eventually, the duty of going as an envoy to Northern Qi would fall upon hiht was overboard; escaping to the h to cal, his mother’s former comrade whom he had never met Director Chen very much wanted Fan Xian to take over his position in the Overwatch Council But Fei Jie had confir over that position would be harder than becoh to shake the Council’s thousands of dark agents
The Overwatch Council was not the regular Sixth Bureau Those without coain lifetime control What the Council itself and the e-ter left the duty to Fan Xian If Fan Xian could successfully rescue Yan Bingyun, it would earn Yan Ruohai's favor When he returns to the capital, there is bound to be a proements, Fan Xian would at least earn support from more than half of the leaders
