Ouyang Xiyi, Priest Ke Feng, and Kou Zhong left the study roo at Kou Xiao Xiong’s expression, you don’t see his body double”
Kou Zhong smiled wryly and said, “This proves that my cultivation is still shallow; a bit of worry and I cannot conceal it”
Priest Ke Feng s, ere not like that? Xiyi Xiong and I have been there”
Ouyang Xiyi laughed and said, “When I was Xiao Xiongdi’s age, I did not have that kind of ability”
Priest Ke Feng said, “Now it’sbetter use this ti will be hard to avoid” Finished speaking, he stopped and saluted
Ouyang Xiyi and Kou Zhong continued side by side toward theface, unexpectedly he was able to invite Ke Feng, this kind of martial art master, to come and help him Apparently his relationshi+p with Laojun [Laozi/Lao-tze] Te casually asked, “What kind of school is Laojun Te Xiyi asked in surprise, “The iical power, but unexpectedly you don’t know the Laojun Te north of Luoyang This is really hard to believe”
Kou Zhong stopped in front of the doorstep Looking at the fine droplets of rain floating in the air outside the door, he said caleneration] gives more pointers to the kid; so Xiyi spoke in low voice, “When I saw you for the first time, I was happy, and felt that you and I have a very close predestined affinity But last night when I received news that you were besieged at the Tianjin Bridge, it was actually Laofu [old ly not to rush indiscriminately into action On one hand it’s because I believed that you have a way to escape The other reason was that this was obviously a trap” [Translator’s note: ‘you’ here are plural]
“This kid had no idea,” Kou Zhong said
Ouyang Xiyi said, “If I did not tell you, you would never know But I especially ly to help you was Ke Feng It can clearly be seen that he is quite fond on you”
Frowning, Kou Zhong said, “Based on his intelligence, how could he not know that it was a carefully laid plot?”
Ouyang Xiyi replied, “At that ti was au Clan dispatch close to a thousand Iuards to blockade the streets and alleys? But we had no tih Fortunately there is an aid-cu’s cozhi who privately reminded Laofu Otherwise I am afraid ould fall into the enezhi was indeed a talent; only a short ti Xiyi’s trust
Ouyang Xiyi patted his shoulder and said, “Now Laofu is going back to my room to sit in ht, you may look for Laofu to have a drink and chat Do you kno to play chess?”
“I just watched other people play,” Kou Zhong replied
Ouyang Xiyi laughed aloud and said, “Affairs of life are just like the game of chess If I were an expert in the arena of chess, you are aoutside the chessboard Be careful People ant the head above your neck will be bashi+ng sideways and colliding straight on to run into you!”
Finished speaking, he returned inside the Mansion happily
Inwardly, Kou Zhong was aht to take now?
As soon as he stepped over the doorstep, the guards on both sides immediately stood to salute him; none without expression full of respect
Kou Zhong knew that he has established fa “Did Miss take a carriage or ride a horse?” he asked one of the guards
“Miss rode away,” the ht fast He i Shuni inquired Yang Xuyan, and this couple engaged in an illicit love affair found out that they had fallen into a trap What kind ofXuyan was anyway? He did not appear to be so to accept an inferior status
Supposing wang shi+chong’s deal with Li shi+ Shuni thus beca Xuyan then becofei’s [princess] soup? Hoould this account be settled?
Thinking to this point, Kou Zhong suddenly felt another headache co looked at shi+ Feixuan’sback, which could make people all over the world, men and women, prostrate theht at the Tianjin Bridge, Miss basically did not sustain injury at all?” he asked in heavy voice
Finally shi+ Feixuan turned her tender body around Her lucid-and-elegant-without-equal jade countenance showed astonish hi’s wild guess, or your eyesight is so brilliant that you are able to see throughtranquil and cal replied, “It was purely a kind of intuition”
shi+ Feixuan sighed and said, “In that case Xu Xiong is indeed a ent and wisdom But I really received a bit of internal injury, only it was not as heavy as I let on By the tie, I have fully recovered”
After a short pause, she revealed a sweet smile, with a hint of innocence in it, her pretty eyes full ofknohy Feixuan played such a deceptive trick?”
Confronted with such an expression, which rarely appeared on her face, Xu Ziling’s heartstrings received an intense shock; but in the blink of an eye later he regained his composure, and replied with a smile, “Did Miss want to fool Wanwan?”
With her pair of eyes, which were more limpid than a vast and deep autu, s was able to reant, confident and at ease, his derant heart was even more astonished
If it were other men that she encountered, other than Hou Xibai, under this circumstance, they would either be at a loss to knohat to do, or would be flustered None would be like this person, as coaze
shi+ Feixuan’s elegant, clear and captivating jade countenance revealed a deep, thoughtful but char smile, as she spoke slowly, “nobody can deceiveOtherwise, Feixuan would not have any excuse to retreat”
Xu Ziling finally broke down; his handsohtly blushed, he said, “Miss’ remark is indeed beyond my expectation Miss could not possibly think that I am related to the Jade Annulus of He Clan’s theft?”
shi+ Feixuan spoke gently, “Exactly the opposite I knew from the start that it was you who stole the Jade Annulus of He Clan”
At a loss, Xu Ziling said, “Zaixia is even more confused now Why did Miss deliberately let me off?”
shi+ Feixuan cheerfully replied, “Finally you are willing to admit that you are the thief who stole the treasure!”
S said, “That is precisely the reason I came to pay a formal visit to Miss You can put any debt on my account But I will definitely not wait helplessly for death, although I will never harm anybody in the Temple either”
A look of pity appeared on shi+ Feixuan’s face; she sighed and said, “Although the ‘Secret to Long Life’ can make you step up into the rank of top martial art experts, but it also made you nearly suffer fire-deviation In here, other than Feixuan, Liao Kong Dashi+ also has the ability to put you to death Xu Xiong, is it possible for you to tellto throw your life away, yet you still ca said, “Theyour ut after personal gain,you is some kind of a sin”
shi+ Feixuanthe treasure a sin? Why did Xu Xiong deliberately cohed hoarsely and said, “I want to ask Miss a question first If his opponent was a virtuous and benevolent ruler, would Li shi+min abandon his desire to strive for the world?”
Not only shi+ Feixuan was not offended, she found it very interesting instead “I did not expect Xu Xiong to be an eloquent scholar,” she said, “But returning to the original topic, where exactly is the Jade Annulus of He Clan?”
Xu Ziling dejectedly replied, “To be honest with you, if the Jade Annulus of He Clan is in my hands, perhaps I would really return it to you Unfortunately the Jade Annulus of He Clan is finished!”
shi+ Feixuan’s jade countenance did not show the least bit of emotion; she quietly looked at hihed tenderly and said, “Unexpectedly, two secrets, which for thousands of years have passed through countless venerable forebears, sages and scholars exhausting their thoughts to penetrate without any result, the first being the ‘Secret to Long Life’, and the second being the Jade Annulus of He Clan, had both been uncovered by you If this is not fate, I don’t knohat it is”
Greatly astonished, Xu Ziling said, “So just like that, and you understand what I a?”
shi+ Feixuan spoke tenderly, “As early as e ehead, I have already sensed it, nevertheless it was hard to believe, and only now I can verify; what else can I say? Even if I kill you, thisasked in surprise, “Is it just ination? Miss does not seem to care about the Jade Annulus of He Clan’s existence or demise”
shi+ Feixuan replied indifferently, “Everything in the world has its own purpose The Jade Annulus of He Clan was this kind of rare, strange object that had its destiny to transhtest a, please leave!”
She illing to let hi should have wiped his forehead and hasten to leave, yet thisor a hard lesson from her With a rueful s in the rain for five, six steps, he could not help stopping and asked, “Could Miss reveal in details: why did you fake an injury that night and let us off?”
shi+ Feixuan’s tranquil and elegant voice came from behind, “Because Feixuan started to feel coh?”
Xu Ziling laughed involuntarily; he continued walking leisurely
