”They were talking aboutXiaoluo said as he pointed to his face ”Supre special about my face?”
Supre Master Ning’s face It was so swollen that it rese Even his own parents wouldn’t be able to recognize him, much less men like them
Ning Xiaoluo jabbed his face with his finger before he said, ”My face hurts”
A few Dragon Guards felt their mouths twitch If your face doesn’t hurt after it’s swelled up like this, then it’d be absurd
Lou Zigui raised his head to peer into the distance He could see the hazy figure of tall towers in the rain, and the blurry silhouette of the city’s gate towers He waved at Ning Xiaoluo to follow him beneath the eaves at the side of the road ”How about this?” he spoke quietly ”Don’t let Xie Wenyuan know that you’re still alive”
Ning Xiaoluo’s face seized in fear He clutched his neck and wanted to run away ”You want to kill me?” he asked
Lou Zigui now believed Ning Xiaoyao’s words Xiaoluo wanted to run away, but the sight of five Dragon Guards on horseback behind hies of his eyes The capital city was really too scary He wanted to go home!
”Conceal your identity and change your naui said as he pulled hizhou, don’t let the Duke of Yue’s estate spread any news that you’re alive See how Grand Preceptor Xie will try to explain your death”
”What!?” Ning Xiaoluo exclaiuts to announce my death to my family!?”
”You died while giving hiive your faui replied
”………” Ning Xiaoluo said Can’t you make it sound less like I’m already dead?
”Most likely, Xie Wenyuan will pin the blaui murmured
Again, Ning Xiaoluo was stunned What did all this have to do with His Majesty?
”Take care,” Lou Zigui took out hisXiaoluo’s hand
”Why?” Ning Xiaoluo asked
”Aren’t you penniless?” Lou Zigui asked flatly
”That’s not it,” Third Young Master Ning said hastily, ”Why does Xie Wenyuan want to sow discord between my Duke of Yue’s estate and His Majesty?”
”Because he doesn’t get along ith His Majesty,” Supreme Commander Lou’s ansas still expressionless
Ning Xiaoluo fell silent n and his official are at odds? Can’t youhow the soup was saltier than usual today, or so
”It’s al at the skies ”Find a place to hide yourself Renito As to the Duke of Yue’s estate’s next actions, that’ll be up to your father and brothers to decide” Supreme Commander Lou had once heard that the Duke of Yue and his wife treated their youngest son as their most precious treasure
”Then what aboutabout theain
”I’ll ui’s voice seeentler ”You have to be careful on the road back to Fengzhou”
”But I want to bring the Xiaoluo said as his tears spilled over onto his swollen face Fengzhou was the true hon land People should always return to their roots
”There’ll be chances in the future to bring theon Guard still inside the carriage This Dragon Guard caui draped the robes over Ning Xiaoluo’s shoulders and said, ”You have to be on guard Go on now”
Ning Xiaoluo stood in front of the horse carriage, wiping his tears as he stared at the bodies of his guards Then he turned to bow at Lou Zigui before running off
”You two, follow hion Guards ”Don’t let him discover you Only show yourselves if his life is at risk Return once you’ve seen him out of the capital city”
The two Dragon Guards obeyed and ran after Ning Xiaoluo
Next, Lou Zigui pointed to the carriage driver and said, ”Kill him”
The Dragon Guards holding the driver in place twisted the driver’s head and snapped his neck He died without a murmur
”Take this carriage with us We’ll going back to the Grand Preceptor’s estate,” Lou Zigui said as he strode aith broad strides The three re their Supre Isn’t that too few people to kill our way into the Grand Preceptor’s estate?
”It’s fine,” Lou Zigui said as heto make a move this time”

By now, Ning Xiaoyao was sitting on the roof of the Grand Preceptor’s study Elder Cousin Magpie was perched by her side, his feathers thoroughly drenched
”Secret rooeezer even has one of those?”
Oil Jar was squatting on Ning Xiaoyao’s shoulders as he spoke ”All bad guys like having secret rooms That’s because they can’t afford to expose any of their dastardly deeds!”
Oil La prostrate on the other shoulder ”Oil Jar, you even know things like that?”
”Ancestral Grandfather taught me,” Oil Jar declared proudly
Elder Cousin Magpie asked, ”Then did Grandpa Ash teach you how to sneak into one?”
Oil Jar fell silent He was familiar with the layout of the Grand Preceptor’s estate A little figure shi+fted before Ning Xiaoyao’s eyes fro Xiaoyao pinched her fingers and picked up a tiny ant
”D-don’t kill me!” the ant pled shrilly
”Little brother, what’s your honorable surnarinned at the ant
”My name’s A’Mo,” the ant said sheepishly
”Oh, I’reeted him
”Ahhhhh---!” the little ant shrieked again, in surprise this ti Xiaoyao!”
Ning Xiaoyao was certain that she was fadom!
”Yeah, she’s Xiaoyao,” Oil Jar said as he stared at the ant in Ning Xiaoyao’s palm His tone took on a disdainful air, ”Would any other human bother to talk to you?”
”Xiaoyao, are you going to tear down the Grand Preceptor’s house again?” A’Mo ignored Oil Jar’s snub and asked Ning Xiaoyao happily
