However, Leng Ziling could not say it.
He had to pretend not to know anyone from the Wei family.
As for the motive of Su Xiaoxiao and Wei Ting for coming to the southern border, Leng Ziling did not care or want to ask.
He only wanted to kill Wei Xu to take revenge on Wei Ting.
The Saintess was puzzled and threw a bottle of medicine to Leng Ziling. “You don’t have to carry out any missions from now on. You have to improve your strength.”
Leng Ziling took the medicine and turned to leave the cave.
Wei Ting sent Su Xiaoxiao to the Cheng family.
He should get out of the carriage.
Before leaving, Su Xiaoxiao stopped him. “Who’s the person who helped us today?”
Wei Ting looked at her. “You don’t know him?”
Su Xiaoxiao looked confused. “Why should I know him? Didn’t you arrange it?”
Wei Ting said, “It’s nothing. I thought you had seen Second Brother’s subordinates. ”
Strange, she didn’t know him. Why did the other party attack?
Was it the same person who saved her at the Northern Holy Mountain?
If so, who was he?
Su Xiaoxiao said, “Among those who know martial arts. I’ve only seen the assassin, Mei Ji, and a few Black Armored Guards of the Western Jin. That person today seems to be very powerful. I’ll spar with him later.”
Wei Ting said, “I don’t think you should.”
He didn’t say, “I’m afraid we won’t be able to keep my daughter.”
Wei Ting was also curious about that person.
The next time he saw him, he would definitely take off his mask and see what he looked like.
The night market in the southern border was prosperous, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians.
A carriage was quietly parked in an inconspicuous alley.
“Why aren’t you back yet? Didn’t you say that you would come back after I’ve finished eating the rice cake?”
The young man couldn’t wait any longer. He jumped out of the carriage and came to the endless street.
“Where is he?”
“Where is he?”
The young man looked around.
Although the young man was dressed as a man, if one was experienced, one could still tell at a glance that the young man was a woman disguised as a man.
A few burly men walked towards the young man with lecherous eyes. The leader teased, “Young Master, where are you going? We’ll bring you there.”
They had done such things many times. They would surround a girl and humiliate her. For the sake of reputation, the girl would not dare to make a fuss.
The young man said in disgust, “Go away!”
The man stretched out his hand to the young man. “Yo, you’re young, but you have a bad temper. I love your personality. I’ll make you comfortable tonight.
Later, I’ll… uh!”
He was halfway through his sentence when he suddenly froze.
His wrist was clasped by a cold hand.
He turned his head, wanting the other party to get lost, but he could not even make a sound.
The man was dressed in white and was as bright as the moon.
“Get lost.”
He said.
His voice was not loud, and his tone was not cold, but the few lecherous burly men felt that they could not move.
He let go of the other party’s wrist and took out a handkerchief to wipe his hands in disdain. He led the young man into the carriage.
It was not until the carriage drove out of the alley that the leader of the group, who had his hand twisted, woke up from his daze. Just as he was about to curse, there was the sound of bones breaking.
In an instant, he fell to the ground.
There was no intact bone left on his body.
After returning to the courtyard, the young man changed back into his clothes. Surprisingly, he wasa devastatingly gorgeous great beauty.
The two of them ate at the same table.
The girl said, “Didn’t you say that my sidekick is in the capital of the Southern Wilderness? But we’ve been here for a few days, but there’s no sign of her. Is she around?”
The man smiled gently. “I’ll look for her tomorrow.”
The girl reminded, “You must definitely find her!”
After dinner, she took a walk in the courtyard before returning to the house to wash up and sleep.
There were many snakes and worms in the southern border.
The girl slept until midnight and was a little thirsty. She planned to call the maidservant to pour a glass of water over. When she opened her eyes, she saw a small flower snake entrenched beside her shoe.
She turned pale with fear.
She couldn’t be bothered to put on her shoes. Her exquisite feet were bare as she pushed open the door next door.
“There are snakes!”
She climbed onto his bed and hid behind him. She was trembling.
The man slowly got un and went next door to throw the snake out.
But she did not dare to return to that room again.
“Then I’ll go over.”
“Don’t go.”
She pinched a little of his sleeve weakly with two fingers.
She was really afraid, extremely afraid.
He lay down beside her, his eyes calm. “Go to sleep.”
She had lingering fears. “Then you’re not allowed to leave.”
He said calmly, “I’m not leaving.”
It was unknown if she was tired from fear or if she found a trace of stability beside him, but she fell asleep not long after.
She had run over in extreme shock. Her mind was blank. She couldn’t remember wearing only a thin sleeping gown.
She rolled onto her side and caught his sleeve with her hand.
Her clothes were half open, revealing smooth snow-white skin.
With a beauty beside him, even if he did not look, the faint fragrance of the girl lingered at the tip of his nose; the air was filled with extreme charm.
However, there was no desire in his eyes.
As he lay flat and quietly looked at the ceiling, his eyes were terrifyingly calm.
“That person… should have appeared, right?”
“Who is it?” someone beside him asked drowsily.
He said, “Someone who can kill my grandfather and defeat Qin Canglan.”
“Who is it? Helian Ye… Didn’t he get killed by Brother Ting…” No, Helian Ye was not Qin Canglan’s match…
A certain someone’s voice was completely confused.
She thought that she had said a lot more after that, but it was actually all in her dream.
That night, Su Xiaoxiao slept soundly.
She had trespassed the Holy Mountain yesterday and should have been eliminated from the Holy Selection. There was no need for her to go this round. Mei Ji shook her awake cruelly. “Get up! We’re going to the Holy Selection!” Su Xiaoxiao opened her eyes and looked at her curiously. “Are you mistaken?”
Mei Ji said, “No mistake! Cheng Qingxue’s mouth is about to turn crooked from anger!”
Su Xiaoxiao was dumbfounded.
No way, could she advance like this?
Alright, she would go take a look.
After Su Xiaoxiao washed up, she accompanied Cheng Sang for breakfast and got into the carriage.
Cheng Qingxue was probably angry with her and did not deliberately wait at the door to wedge her opening gambit. Instead, she went to the Holy Maiden Temple an hour earlier.
Su Xiaoxiao was leisurely and not anxious at all.
When the carriage passed by a shop selling rice cakes, Su Xiaoxiao heard a familiar voice.
She lifted the curtain. “Stop the carriage!”
The coachman tightened the reins and followed her gaze. “What’s wrong, Young Miss? Do you want to eat rice cake? I’ll go buy it!”
“No need.”
Su Xiaoxiao alighted from the carriage and walked through the crowd to the rice cake shop with a serious expression.
She grabbed the arm of a young man.
The young man shook her off impatiently. “Who’s so rude— little sidekick?”
“HUI An…”
Su Xiaoxiao swallowed the last two words.
She had not seen wrongly yesterday. That young man was really Princess Hui
An!
She pulled Princess Hui An aside and asked in a low voice, “Why are you in the southern border?”
Princess Hui An’s eyes lit up. “I’m here for you.”
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Who brought you here?”
Princess Hui An’s eyes flashed. “It’s not your fourth brother.”
Su Xiaoxiao gasped. “Su Xuan is here too? He just finished the spring examination.. Shouldn’t he be preparing for the palace examination in the Imperial College? He skipped class again!”
