Chapter 168 (1/2)



168 Golden Lotus Daoist priest’s Messenger (1)

Under the black robe, the hands reached out and the center of his palm stirred up a vortex. With a whoosh, monk Hengyuan flew up uncontrollably and was thrown into the death vortex.

He opened his eyes in pain. His skin quickly dried up, his qi and blood were flowing out, and his face was visibly deteriorating.

This familiar face was slowly becoming dejected in his eyes as he walked towards death … Seeing this scene, Heng Hui’s cruel face was slightly moved. His dark eyes were no longer cold and hard.

Bang … Hengyuan was thrown out and smashed into the well arm.

Heng Hui’s left hand pressed down on his right arm. He gritted his teeth and said, ” don’t kill him! Don’t kill my senior brother …

His face suddenly turned cold as he bewitched, ” Hengyuan is a warrior monk. He has strong qi and blood, which can heal his injuries … Don’t you want to take revenge? don’t you want to take revenge?”

Then, his cold expression disappeared and was replaced by a painful struggle. “No, you can’t kill him. He’s my senior brother.”

“You can kill anyone in the world, why can’t you kill him?”

“I can kill anyone in the world, but not him. He is my senior brother, the person I respect the most.”

“What about Ping Yang?”

“Ping Yang …”

His expression was one of coldness and one of pain, as if two different personalities were fighting in his body. As the stalemate continued, the blood vessels in his thick right arm glowed red and rose and fell as if he was breathing.

Heng Hui’s main personality seemed to have been suppressed, and his coldness gradually gained the upper hand.

“Henghui …” Hengyuan sounded tired. do you remember the first pithy formula that I taught you? ”

Heart cleansing spell … Heng Hui resisted the right hand that had lost control. He leaned against the wall of the well and slowly sat down. He put his hands together and chanted in a low voice.

After a long time, he gradually calmed down and his right arm was no longer restless.

Heng Hui opened his eyes, and his pupils were still black without any white. He stared at Hengyuan from the bottom of the dim well and said in a hoarse voice, ”

“Senior brother, didn’t you want to know what happened to me a year ago? I’ll tell you now.”

……

“What’s the maid’s name?”

In the interrogation room, Xu Qi ‘an took a sip of tea and looked at the Restless Hua kui.

“He. er …” Ming Yan answered obediently.

She kept peeking at Xu Qi ‘an, and at the same time, she glanced at the closed door. As the top courtesan of the Academy’s workshop, she had come into contact with many high-ranking officials and nobles, so she knew what kind of place the night watchman’s Yamen was.

Any official who was locked up in here would be skinned even if they didn’t die. A weak woman like her would probably face something more terrifying than death.

“When did she start following you?” Xu Qi ‘an’s face was serious.

“It’s, it’s been three to four years,” She looked at Xu Qi ‘an in fear. about three and a half years. I can’t remember the exact time.

The man sat there expressionlessly, with a dignified air about him. She didn’t even dare to breathe as her heart was under great pressure.

Why did this person change so much? he was still acting like a rich Playboy last night.

Three and a half years … I’ll get someone to investigate which other women have entered the Imperial Academy during this period of time. Xu Qi ‘an nodded.

“Who is she close to?”

Ming Yan thought for a long time. As he recalled, he said a series of names.

After asking a few more questions, Xu Qi ‘an looked at the clerk who was in charge of taking the record, and the latter nodded.

Thank you for your cooperation, Miss Ming Yan. You can go now.

“Ah?” Happiness came too quickly like a tornado, and she couldn’t believe it for a moment.

“I’ll send you back to the Imperial Academy.” Xu Qi ‘an stood up and made a gesture of invitation.

Ming Yan, the courtesan, followed him out nervously. When she reached the Yamen gate and saw the carriage parked outside, she felt relieved. She believed that she would really be sent back to the education workshop, and not in the Yamen …

She immediately recovered her usual bearing and bowed. “Thank you, Lord Xu.”

Xu Qi ‘an reached out and pinched her full butt. “Words can’t express my gratitude. I should express it with my actions.”

This person could turn hostile faster than a woman … Ming Yan, Hua kui, was a little shy and afraid as she glanced at the carriage.

Xu Qi ‘an raised his eyebrows and fell into deep thought as he looked at the carriage.

…..

The carriage stopped outside the alley of the Academy’s workshop. The courtesan lady got off the carriage and said softly, “”When Lord Xu is free, please come to azure pool court for tea.”

After leaving behind a few polite words, she immediately turned around and left. Her steps were very fast, and the hems of her skirt fluttered.

She was a little afraid of Xu Qi ‘an. Of course, it was not because of his hardness like 24k gold, and that nothing had happened in the carriage.

She had always been afraid of such temperamental people.

Xu Qi ‘an returned to the Yamen in a carriage and gathered the core members of the team for a meeting.

Soon, three silver gongs, Lu Qing, song tingfeng, and Zhu guangxiao, a total of six people, were summoned to the side hall by Xu Qi ‘an.

“You already know about the situation at the Academy’s workshop last night, right?” Xu Qi ‘an said.

Li Yuchun and the others nodded. They had already heard about it from song tingfeng. He also knew that it was the people from the Directorate of Celestials who had resolved the crisis.
