Xu Ziling looked at shi+ Zhixuan, there was a strange feeling, a bit like looking at another person The shi+ Zhixuan in front of hihu, no one in the world can do anything to him No one dared to doubt that this number onee; yet he clearly grasped shi+ Zhixuan’s people rebelling and friends deserting, isolated and without help - desolate and gri betrayed by that unknown person tonight, have put hi alone, plus Yang Xuyan, in the other side vanishi+ng, I aed to take shi+ Zhixuan’s place
Even if shi+ Zhixuan could successfully assassinate Zhao Deyan, the focus of the de Xuyan ed the Bu Si Yin Fa and the Yu Jin Wan Fa Gen Yuan Zhi Jing’s martial arts, shi+ Zhixuan, with only one person’s power, even if he had the ability to know all under heaven [idio Xuyan in order
The bottom line was that the reason why shi+ Zhixuan was trapped in such a plight was because he could not let go of his father-and-daughter love toward his daughter shi+ Qingxuan, moreover, his love for Bi Xiuxin was still as deep as the sea Just like he said, in his heart, shi+ Qingxuan wasfor the hegemony over the world, and thus he could not accomplish the requirements that the demonic school demanded of him
For the first time since he raised the question, he felt pity and closeness towards this dreadful ene of closeness caxuan
Xu Ziling sighed lightly, he spoke serenely, “As long as Xie wang can lie low and notZhao Deyan, ill be able to avoid all the contradictions and the conflicts between us”
shi+ Zhixuan’s gaze sloept past Kou Zhong and Hou Xibai, before finally fell on Xu Ziling His hed involuntarily and said, “Youthat I a other people the convenience Currently, Ol’ shi+’s hostility towards Shaoshuai has couys are willing to cooperate with ood to you without any har said, “Our plan is very si Yushan out When the fortunate ti co’s banking business Otherwise, if the wind is leaked, Xiang Gui father and son will slip away With their financial resources and sche, where could we find them? If we let theh due to the whip cannot reach [idiom: beyond one’s influence] I already rand plan to assassinate Zhao Deyan will still proceed according to our earlier discussion”
shi+ Zhixuan revealed a gri expression and said, “That’s for sure Apart from this, I also want to destroy Li Family’s power completely, to see how chaotic the world will be! You can te to talk to Xibai, and I also want to spend a few days giving hiain Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling felt the helplessness of being led by shi+ Zhixuan by the nose, they looked at Hou Xibai at the same time
Hou Xibai felt that he had become shi+ Zhixuan’s only close relative in the boundless sea of people, he nodded and said, “Tu’er [disciple] obeys!”
Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling left shi+ Zhixuan’s new lair and went to a dark forested area of the Cao Canal to talk It was still two sichen before dawn, the wind and the snoere picking up, the floating snow turned into flurries of snowflakes, the heaven and earth turned vast and indistinct
Kou Zhong spoke heavily, “I have a very oreat chance that shi+ Zhixuan already saw through that we are here not just to assassinate Li shi+min, as si bitterly, Xu Ziling said, “That’s what I aest probleht, ould simply decide victory or defeat on the battlefield Ay! What do we do?”
Kou Zhong said, “Before assassinating Zhao Deyan, he can’t possibly expose us, because we still have our value of being useful to him After Zhao Deyan breathes his last, even divine iuess how Lao shi+ would fix us, the only way is to kill him first; once the main proble resolutely said, “We’ll do it that way then!”
Kou Zhong stared at hihed and said, “But how are you going to explain to shi+ Qingxuan? After all, he is her father”
Xu Ziling sighed and said, “For the sake of the overall situation, what does personal sacrifice h will be able to survive Until today, this sentence is still our golden rule”
Kou Zhong said, “In that case, tentatively, we are going to deal with him like this Know yourself and know your ene’an has becorab any infor to see Deyi, ask hiure out fro place, and then we can figure out who betrayed Lao shi+”
“Why don’t you go withto He Chang Long in West Market to try ood chance to sneak in and find out the situation clearly”
Xu Ziling put on his hood, patted his shoulder, and left without saying anything any stood blankly for a hts out of his mind, and then he left the canal bank, and leaped over the perimeter wall of the West Market Several ups and downs later, he ca Long, intending to observe the situation first Who would have thought that before he even crouched down, he heard a slight sound of the wind fro cried inwardly and looked back, only then did he breathe a sigh of relief
The newcohan He flew over to hi off his hood, revealing a grave expression, he spoke heavily, “Chi Shengchun had just entered in When he co was shocked, but he was also puzzled; he asked in astonishhan spoke serenely, “We have no other choice After the banquet, Chi Shengchun went to the Six-Happiness first, and then took a carriage to Guangfu Li [bright happiness neighborhood, rehborhood/city district] at the Ver merchant by the name of You Baisan Who do you think this You Baisan is? Unexpectedly he is a travelingChi Shengchun, this turtle egg, is going to take hi wants to get the truth Were it not for I saw that he was not going home, I would have reat chance that Xiang Gui is hiding in He Chang Long”
Kou Zhong’s heart sank straight down to the botto a headache, he said, “Other than that, is there any other good way?”
Ba Fenghan replied with a wry s-disaster-on-himself You Baisan, but this will only chunto hi said, “You Baisan only uise ca Ye has never liked to talk, and the fake Furong Ye’s voice and intonation were under Ou Liangcai’s personal instruction and adjustment, so perhaps it could still deceive hilance, the other people, like Shen Wenjiang, the Housekeeper and so on will be full of flaws, so we ’s! How did it suddenly beconorant You Baisan talks about old affair, our Furong Ye ht not remember, he would be put on the spot”
His spirit aroused, Ba Fenghan said, “On the contrary, that won’t be a proble Ye has a coyao’s affair, so that he won’t be afraid of any inquiries”
Kou Zhong did not understand, “Why won’t it be a problehan setful Do you still re a confession that I used against Guan Ping in Longquan? Afterwards, not only did he forget everything, he was even heavy on the head but light on the feet,it difficult for his shted, Kou Zhong said, “I remember, I remember! Of course, I reht be fa Ye in this regard Besides, Furong Ye is aloof and remote, and he decides what he wants to answer Ha! The matter should not be delayed, let You Baisan, because he is upholding yiqi, to suffer this catastrophe on Chi Shengchun’s behalf”
When Xu Ziling returned to the Situ Mansion, it was still one sichen before dawn, everybody has gone back to their roo to Zha Jie, who had just co to be at a loss
It was obvious that Lei Jiuzhi was extracting every detail fro with the beauty He heard hi chess with her?”
Xu Ziling stepped into the hall and said with a laugh, “Didn’t Lei Dage say you were very tired? How come you are not in bed to rest?”
Lei Jiuzhi’s old face turned red, he said, “I orried about you, so I could not sleep peacefully Now I just woke up, and when I came out, I came across this ame of chess”
Zha Jie spoke in ehtchess the e and experience [idioh and said, “So that’s how it is Why didn’t you say so earlier?”

How could Lei Jiuzhi be willing to give up? He pursued on, “Did you win or lose?”
Zha Jie was helpless against him, he replied, “We ended up in a tie”
Lei Jiuzhi slapped the table and exclaimed, “Wonderful! Wonderful! Victory or defeat has not been decided, fancy that you, this kid, could coames to play”
“Hoas Xi’er’s chess skills?” Xu Ziling asked
Zha Jie said, “Not concealing anything from Xu Ye, my chess skill is not up to par yet; fortunately, Xi’er was half-a-jin-equal-to-eight-liang [o first, because I was afraid to make a fool of myself, I dealt with it with my heart and soul, every ot a tie, not likely to be looked down upon by her”
