C180 (1/2)
”In the depths of the Imperial Court, the beautiful woman has been imprisoned!”
Jun Mohan opened the envelope and saw the short eight words on the letter.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, and a small flame that was almost invisible was ignited within the pavilion. Suddenly, he threw the letter onto the ground, and clenched his fists tightly as he chuckled.
This action frightened Ning Yan, who was standing to the side.
She quickly squatted down to pick up the letter. Her face changed as she read the contents.
He hadn't thought that the empress would be so vicious that she wouldn't even let a girl like esteemed wangfei, who stood aloof from worldly affairs, off the hook.
”We will set out immediately and head for the Xi Liang.”
Jun Mohan had already taken off her silvery-white mask at this time. Her face was gloomy, just like the dark and frightening face before a storm.
”Leng Ming, you, Ning Yan and Ao Ying stay behind to help Xi Er.”
The inside of the room was quiet for a long time. Jun Mohan raised his head and looked at the closed window on the third floor of the Red Dust Inn.
”Yes sir!”
Leng Ming glanced at the direction that Jun Mohan was looking and his heart sank. He finally understood why Master wanted Miss Bai to leave.
The one with Xi Liang was not a kind person, his wrist was iron and blood was iron, and his hands were vicious.
Perhaps Miss Bai being far away from her master was the best arrangement for her and the safest protection.
Not long later, a completely black horse carriage slowly left this city that was filled with a depressing atmosphere.
”Miss, the Blood Fiend Hall Master has left the capital.”
Bai Zhixi had just put in two bowls of blood, and was currently lying on the low ground and napping.
Hearing Zi Li say that, she slowly opened her beautiful eyes that were shining with a mysterious light.
”Where are they now?”
Bai Zhixi struggled to get up. When he heard that Mo Feihan had left, he didn't know why, but he actually felt a trace of reluctance in his heart.
Perhaps it was because she saw Jun Mohan's figure on him, which made her feel absent-minded and nostalgic. Perhaps he had been secretly helping her, but she only felt a little bit of gratitude towards him.
”I'm afraid we're at the west wall now.”
Zi Li carefully helped her up. Although he didn't know why she would ask that, he still answered truthfully.
”Zi Li, bring me to the Western City.”
Bai Zhixi's eyes were dim and gloomy, like an eggplant that had been beaten by frost, unable to look down. Dragging Zi Li along, they slowly walked out of the house.
Just think of it as drawing a perfect end to their former friendship!
”My lord, it's getting late. When are we leaving?”
At the entrance of Western City, the horse carriage quietly stopped on the official road. Qing Feng looked at the afterglow of the sun that was about to disappear, and braced himself to ask Jun Mohan.
They had already rested here for two hours. He knew that his lord was waiting for Miss Bai. However, Miss Bai did not know her master's identity. Furthermore, there had been many misunderstandings between them in the past. She really wanted to kill her lord. How could she possibly send him off?
The situation over at the Xi Liang was urgent, so they couldn't afford to be careless in the slightest, and they couldn't delay any longer.
”Let's go!”
After a moment of silence, Jun Mohan's indifferent and worried voice came out from the carriage.
After Qing Feng heard this, he waved to the people behind him, and the vast carriage team hurriedly headed in the direction of Xi Liang, causing a large amount of dust to fly and confused the people on the street.
When Bai Zhixi arrived, the carriage had already gone far away, leaving behind a dust cloud in the sky, and the lonely back of the carriage.
”Miss, if we did not live in chaos, would you still accept others after prince has left?”
Zi Li looked at the carriage in the distance. She knew that this rumor was cold and heartless, and the Blood Fiend Hall Master was different from her young miss.
And the Miss seemed to treat him differently. If possible, she still hoped that the Miss could find someone to protect her.
In the past few days, she had witnessed how lonely the young miss was. She had worked hard, felt helpless, and felt heartache just by looking at her.
”Why do you ask?”
Bai Zhixi's eyes were gloomy as he casually asked.
”Because I feel that High Lord Extinction Demon is different from the rest. ”As for Miss …”
”That's because I still owe him 100,000 silver. As a creditor, of course he would treat me differently. ”Let's go!”
There was a warm smile on Bai Zhixi's face as he pulled Zi Li into the city.
”Miss, you haven't answered my question yet?”
Zi Li watched her walk away and quickly ran up, carefully supporting her up one step at a time, and continued to ask without giving up.
”All one's life, I've only cared about one person's heart.”
Bai Zhixi stopped and said word by word, with an extremely serious and sincere expression.
After that, he patted Zi Li's innocent and blank face and displayed his Qing Gong to leave this Western City which was filled with sorrow.
”Sigh, Leng Ming also said that the relationship between my Young Miss and the Absolute Demon Lord is very deep. So that's the reason for the relationship.”
Zi Li looked at Bai Zhixi's disappearing figure and muttered softly before chasing after Bai Zhixi.
The simple-natured Zi Li never thought that he would be guided by Leng Ming to become the mistress between Bai Zhixi and himself.
