Chapter 274 - Are You Dreaming? (1/2)

Lin Jian rolled his eyes in annoyance. ”I saw the expression from your eyes that day... when you are looking at the forbidden palace...” Lin Jian squinted his eyes at Yao Ying while laughing sarcastically.

”What happened to my eyes?!” Yao Ying asked, feeling dumbfounded. He didn't even realize that he had betrayed his thought from his eyes ah~!

”Gah! Stop pretending to be innocent! You have the same expression on your eyes just like me... That was why I knew back then that we had the same thought.” Lin Jian gritted his teeth while looking at the pretentious Yao Ying. He knew that the latter was trying to hold back his smirk.

”I don't understand!” Yao Ying still insisted that he was the innocent one.

Lin Jian couldn't stand it anymore and he pointed at him while frowning, ”It was a mixture between greed and curiosity!” They were both the same type of people, thus, he understood Yao Ying best. Both of them laid their eyes on the so-called treasures inside that forbidden place.

Yao Ying laughed a crispy laugh. ”Yes... You got it right!” He didn't try to deny it anymore. After all, the closer he was to Lin Jian, the better they knew how each other thought.

Lin Jian just rolled his eyes in annoyance once again. ”So... this really didn't have anything to do with the treasures?”

Yao Ying answered, ”Really... I won't lie to you about something important like this.” In his mind, he added, 'I just didn't tell you about it! It's different, right?'

Lin Jian knew that there was no point in forcing Yao Ying anymore. At least, no one knew that this had something to with Yao Ying and Yao Ling. However, even though they didn't know who that person was, they had a few ways to confirm that matter.

They didn't know that what Yao Ling had done... actually had serious consequences. They unknowingly had attracted two powerful forces... One of them was the Han Emperor who had been waiting for someone to come and wake the symbols up --- it meant the person that they had been searching for all this time had come.

Even though the hidden guards didn't see the glow, but two people were able to feel it... One was the Han Emperor's underling and the other one was a hidden force.

When the symbols started glowing, someone suddenly awoke from the slumber. ”She has finally come...” The person said worriedly. This person had hoped that no one would be able to wake the symbols up but it seemed like fate didn't agree with her... She needed to hide this person's existence from the Han Emperor as soon as possible. She needed to trace that person whereabouts and explain everything before it was too late.

On the other hand, someone smirked and said happily, ”Hahaha... That person has finally come out! I've been waiting for a long time!” The man frowned to himself, thinking whether he should tell the Han Emperor about this progress or not. He wasn't really the Han Emperor's underlings... they only had an agreement. That was all...

He had heard about the princess Han Xiang who had left a blood letter containing about the stupid Emperor's deeds! He was so annoyed at that useless person. It seemed like he didn't really need this chess piece anymore. Thus, he decided not to tell the Han Emperor about this new person's movement.

Besides, he needed to find out the woman's whereabouts first and confirm that he got the right person. After done exploiting her, then he would kill her! So, what was the use of telling the Han Emperor for now?

No use!
