Upx Chapter 155 (2/2)
The two pageboys immediately split up to fulfill his requests Grand Preceptor Xie sat in his bed and wrote a letter to the Duke of Yue, Ning Heng3 In the letter, he bla’s third son, Ning Xiaoluo By the time his servants carried in Xie Laibao on a chair, Grand Preceptor Xie had already sealed up the letter and handed it off to one of his pageboys
“Order the outer courtyard to travel double speed and deliver this letter to Fengzhou”
The pageboy accepted the letter and quickly ran off Xie Laibao privatelyout, “Master”
Grand Preceptor Xie waved a hand to dismiss everyone else in the room as he looked at Xie Laibao Somehow, the man had been reduced to tears in the blink of an eye “What are you crying for? This old man hasn’t reached a dead end yet”
Xie Laibao boxed his ears and said, “This servant was unworthy and deserves to die But now of all times, I can’t move”
“You have to lanced at the places where Xie Laibao’s injured body had been secured to planks
Xie Laibao hastened to say, “Master, please instruct me”
“Three days from now, this old man will invite a monk to recite scriptures for the old madame,” Grand Preceptor Xie said “On that day, the leaders of the Poison Sect will come to our estate as well”
“They’re all coether?” Xie Laibao asked That’s quite a bit of people
“Their head has been captured, so they’ll need to ask me for ideas,” Grand Preceptor Xie explained “You’ll prepare the banquet for that day”
Xie Laibao glanced at Grand Preceptor Xie That’s it? So that simple?
“We can’t leave the Poison Sect alive any longer,” Grand Preceptor Xie explained “Three days later marks the death of their sect”
The Head Steward Xie nearly juht There were tens of thousands of members in the Poison Sect, while their leaders numbered in the hundreds alone Grand Preceptor Xie wanted to kill all the leaders?
“S-should I poison the food?” Xie Laibao asked
“You’re going to poison members of the Poison Sect?” Grand Preceptor Xie retorted
Xie Laibao boxed his ears again “Master, this servant lost his brains while recovering from his injuries”
“Transfer archers from the capital,” Grand Preceptor Xie said “And shoot everyone who shows up to death”
“Yes,” Xie Laibao obeyed before looking Grand Preceptor Xie with a conflicted expression He wanted to asked a question, but didn’t dare
“There has to be a spy ast the Poison Sect’s ranks,” Grand Preceptor Xie said “If I can’t find them, I’d rather kill them all”
Xie Laibao was all consideration for his master “Master, the Poison Sect’s full of disciples If you kill off all their leaders just like that, wouldn’t the survivors come to cause you trouble?”
“It was this old man who helped to raise the Poison Sect,” Grand Preceptor Xie said, not worried at all, “If I say they’re good, then they’re good If I say they’re bad, then they’re nothing more than rats in the streets”
Xie Laibao felt his heart clench in fear at the words If he finds out that I’ui, hoill he treat me?!
“Go on now,” Grand Preceptor Xie dismissed Xie Laibao
“Master, then hoe explain to the Poison Sect head?” Xie Laibao asked
“Tell him that eren’t the ones who sent in the archers,” Grand Preceptor Xie replied coldly “If he’s not one of Ning Yu’s e on her for his subordinates”
Xie Laibao’s voice shook “So the archers were sent by His Majesty?”
“All of my men are those His Majesty wants to kill,” Grand Preceptor Xie leveled Xie Laibao with a stare “Only by understanding that will those half-hearted types give up their second thoughts”
Xie Laibao was fearful, but held out long enough to praise his master and call him wise and brilliant Impatient with such praise, Grand Preceptor Xie simply waved him away Two servants were called into the rooain The Head Steward of the Xie Clan heard Grand Preceptor Xieto himself as he left the room
“You think that Lou Zigui’s so great?”
Xie Laibao’s soul nearly flew out of his body at the words He was about to crawl off his chair and beg for ain, “You’ll regret it, Your Majesty”
Xie Laibao motioned for his carriers to er, he’d definitely lose his nerve Meanwhile, Grand Preceptor Xie coughed up a fresh mouthful of blood
The spring breeze was very warm outside, but Xie Laibao felt as if it were the dead of winter Because Grand Preceptor Xie suspected the Poison Sect of harboring spies, he ordered their leaders summarily executed But what about the likes of hiht as he shook back and forth on his chair, Perhaps ets rid of Grand Preceptor Xie once and for all?
Grand Preceptor Xie leaned over his little desk and lifted his brush again, this tier Xie With no way to kill Ning Yu, he couldn’t afford any discord with his daughter in the palace By the ti capital had settled down to its previous cal dinner with Lou Zigui She was a quick eater, but Lou Zigui wasn’t slow either thanks to his experience in theBoss Black, the snoolf pup and Grandfather Sparrow on theall held admiration for their speed
“You’re a girl, so can’t you beBoss Black meowed from below the table
Ning Xiaoyao rolled her eyes
“Look atXiaoyao’s calves Although Supreme Commander Lou ate fast, hisXiaoyao pouted at the sight He looks good even when he’s eating, so what’s a girl as handsoh, you…)
“What’s wrong?” Lou Zigui put down his soup and asked in a low voice
Ning Xiaoyao copied Lou Zigui’s way of drinking soup but only got a pitiful ot the same results If she wanted to drink more soup, she’d have to open her mouth wider
How did Supreme Commander finish off his soup like this?
In aXiaoyao opened wide and polished off her , she set the empty bowl on the table
“This is what you call drinking soup!” Ning Xiaoyao said with a glare
“……” said Lou Zigui Can someone tell me what just happened?
