Chapter 262 Gentleman

Chapter 262 Gentleman

The north wind howls and the snow falls heavily.

On the outskirts of the capital, there is a quiet mansion.

In the steaming conservatory in the inner courtyard, there sat a woman in a light green dress, as ethereal as a fairy.

There is a pot of fragrant tea on the table, as well as several exquisite refreshments, which are all delicious and delicious, making people very appetizing at first sight.

However, she did not touch any plate of snacks, and even drank tea briefly. It had been a long time since she had even finished a cup.

Suddenly there was a soft squeaking sound.

The greenhouse door was gently pushed open.

The cold wind blew in from outside, mixed with scattered snowflakes.

The woman slowly raised her head and looked toward the door.

A middle-aged man in a high-gown uniform came in from outside and bowed slightly.

"Wen Yan has met Saint Su."

A smile appeared on the lips of the woman in green clothes, and cold words flowed from her lips, "I am only one of the three candidate saints, and I am not the real Qinglian saint. Zuo Shi does not need to be so polite.

So it’s better to call me Su Yan, so as not to make my two sisters unhappy if they find out about it, and cause unnecessary trouble.”

The middle-aged man in a high-level official uniform closed the door, but did not change his title when he spoke again, "I have been in the same boat as Su Shengnu and stood together. Is it possible that I could change the court in the middle and turn to those two women as my master?"

Su Rong sighed leisurely, put down the tea cup that he had been rubbing for a long time, and reached out to pick up a piece of snacks. "I heard that Zuo Envoy suddenly came to look for me. Is there something urgent?"

"When I come here this time, there is indeed something I need to report to the Holy Lady."

Facing the inquiry from the woman opposite, Wen Yan looked calm and continued in a calm tone, "I just got the news that Elder Gong may have passed away."

There was a crisp click sound.

There was a crack in the porcelain cup that had just been placed on the table, and half of the tea left in it flowed out through the crack, soon leaving a water stain.

Su Rong lowered his eyes and remained silent for a long time, "This is a big event. Is the news I heard about uncle true?"

Wen Yan said, "It's a message from Yun Hong, the disciple of Elder Gong. I have arranged for personnel to investigate and confirm."

Su Rong nodded, "What about Yunhong? Where is she now?"

"She disappeared, and she disappeared at the same time as another direct disciple of Elder Gong."

Wen Yan frowned and slowly exhaled a breath, "Some people saw her heading north after leaving the city, and then they didn't know where she ended up."

"Although Elder Gong has been away from the Holy Religion for a long time, he is still our secret elder. If he is confirmed dead now, it will be a huge loss to the Holy Religion."

Su Rong took out a handkerchief, wiped away the water stains spreading on the table, then rolled it gently, put away the cracked porcelain cup, and threw it into the trash can, "So we still need to find out the truth as soon as possible and take a closer look.

Is someone targeting us?"

Wen Yan fell into memories, "After the battle at Taixuan Mountain, I made a special trip to see Gong Yuan. Her level of strength has improved visibly. Even if she faces me, she is already capable of fighting.

And if it's a life-and-death confrontation, with each using his own killer moves, it's hard to tell who will win between me and her, and I might even be defeated and die.

So I am also a little confused as to what could be the reason for her sudden death without even any signs before."

"So in Uncle Wen's opinion, what is the most likely reason?"

Wen Yan thought for a moment, "With Elder Gong's current level of strength, it is not easy to kill her. Either a person of the same height as Qi Taiquan must kill her personally, or two or more martial arts masters must join forces to attack."

It's possible to do this.

However, in my opinion, there is a third possibility, and that is Elder Gong’s own problem."

"Oh? According to Wen Zuoshi, Elder Gong might have gone crazy while practicing martial arts and killed himself?"

"It's not impossible."

Wen Yan sighed, "Elder Gong used side methods to become a master. He possesses the two secret techniques of Dingxuan and Qinglian. He even obtained the amazing book of Emperor Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Emperor's Seal. Such progress in cultivation is really impressive.

People are surprised.

In the few recent meetings, I found that she seemed to have quite a mental problem. She felt as if she had been disturbed by endless mystical thoughts, and she could not escape even if she advanced to the level of heaven and human beings.

After such a long period of accumulation, it is not unusual for you to become possessed."

Su Rong's eyes flashed with light, and a look of enlightenment flashed, "When Zuo Shi said this, I was reminded of Wu Xiuxuan, the thirteenth prince of Emperor Wu of the Great Zhou Dynasty, who was known as the Overlord.

After he became a martial arts master, for some unknown reason, all his thoughts collapsed and his mind was shaken. He sealed himself in a hidden valley somewhere and never came back to the world for decades."

Just as Wen Yan was about to say something, he suddenly heard light footsteps outside, approaching quickly.

"Lord Zuo Shi, my subordinates have just received a secret report that a disciple saw Miss Yunhong north of the capital, and with her was Dingxuan Dao Zilie Mountain. The direction the two of them were heading to was most likely Meishan Mountain.

"

"She and Lieshan went to Meishan in the north of the city?"

Wen Yan frowned and asked, "What were they doing there? Could it be that they found some clues?"

"Mr. Hui Zuo, the subordinates didn't dare to get too close. They just glanced at each other from a distance. However, looking at the two of them, it didn't look like they were searching for clues. Instead, they looked like they were out for a private meeting on an outing in the snow.

"

"I see."

Wen Yan thought for a moment and said, "I can't get away at this moment. Go and ask the elders to come over and see what they are doing.

If there are not enough people to investigate over there, you can also take this token and go to the nearby spies under the prince's command for help."

"My subordinate understands."

When there was silence outside the door, Su Shen slowly stood up from the table and said, "Counting the time, Prince Yan will be arriving soon."

"The saint has made a decision?" Wen Yan did not answer directly, but asked a question.

Su Shen smiled slightly and said, "He wants to use us, and then he will cook the rabbit to death and hide the dog after the incident is completed, but on the other hand, we are not using them to achieve our own goals.

We and they just come together for our own interests, and until one party truly achieves its desired goal, the cooperative relationship will be relatively solid."

After a pause, she secretly sighed, "What's more, if Prince Yan hadn't arranged a cover up at Taixuan Mountain, we might have exposed our traces before taking action. Just for this matter, we have to give them a

Explain."

Wen Yan was silent for a moment, and his face became a little gloomy, "It's a pity that Qiao Jing and Ji Shou did not do things well, and they also damaged Meng Chi, the Beihuang Grandmaster. Later, even Ye Qiyuan disappeared without a trace. It is really bad for our lineage."

a huge blow.

If I were to know which force sabotaged this matter, I would definitely personally take action and wipe out the whole family."

"It's up to people to plan things, and it's up to Heaven to make things happen. There's no need to worry too much about Wen Zuozhi."

Su Rong put on his big cloak, opened the door, and took a deep breath of the cool air, "Prince Yan said that Prince Cheng interfered in the matter. Although I don't believe this statement, it won't take long for Cheng to be killed."

The king is captured, and you will know by asking casually when the time comes."

Wen Yan followed behind and walked out of the greenhouse, "Do you need me to be by your side to hold the meeting between the Saint and Prince Yan?"

"No, Zuo Shi has many things to do, so there is no need to waste time here."

She stopped and showed a faint smile, "What's more, I'm afraid Zuo Shi will scare the prince and make him stand up and leave before he can say a few words."

Acropolis of the capital.

Wei Tao drank tea slowly, one cup after another.

Wu Qingyan, who was waiting behind him, was serving water and pouring tea almost non-stop.

Except when serving tea and pouring water, her eyes never left Wei Tao's side, clear and simple, without any complex emotions.

Not far away, Wu Qingxuan was sitting at his desk, carefully analyzing and studying all the letters.

Elder Wan Zhang and Elder Chong led people everywhere to inquire for information. Apart from a few of them, the only ones left in the whole yard were the dead people who had been thrown into the well.

The sound insulation effect of the secret room is extremely good, blocking out the wind and snow. It is extremely quiet inside, with only the sound of pouring water and drinking tea slowly echoing in the ears of a few people.

After a long time, Wei Tao drank the last cup of tea, put down the cup, raised his head and looked around slowly.

"Everything in the capital is shrouded in fog, making it impossible for people to see their true appearance.

So the situation we are facing now is quite complicated, so we must find the key entry point in order to break through and open up the situation."

His voice was low and gentle, clearly reaching the ears of everyone in the room, "The next important thing is to meet with the prince first, listen to his opinion, and then consider what to do next.

If it doesn't work, you can leave the capital and return to Qizhou, where you will be protected by Ambassador Feng Jiedu and the Taoist Master of our sect, so at least you don't have to worry about your life."

When Wei Tao said this, he suddenly frowned and looked outside the door of the secret room.

He made a gesture to keep quiet and slowly stood up from his seat.

Without any movement, Wei Tao had quietly arrived outside the door.

He closed the iron door of the inner room smoothly, took another step forward, and reached the small garden from the front yard to the backyard.

Squeak...

The closed garden gate was pushed open.

A leather boot stepped in from outside.

Wei Tao stood with his hands behind his back, expressionless as he watched the man in a bamboo hat and coir raincoat cross the threshold and stand on the bluestone pavement of the garden.

Although it was snowing outside, there was not a single snowflake on the man's body.

There wasn't even a trace of water stains. It didn't look like he had just walked out of the heavy snow, but he had stayed in a warm and dry house from beginning to end.

Wei Tao only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, turning his head to look behind the man.

There was also a slender figure holding a paper umbrella, which reminded him inexplicably of the subordinate of Supervisor Lu Zhihe.

The ethereal appearance and ghostly changes left a deep impression on him.

"Who are you? Where are you from here?" the man in the hat asked.

Wei Tao said casually, "I am the secret envoy sent by the prince. If you need anything, just tell me."

"You are Prince Yan's secret envoy, so who are we?" The man was stunned, slowly raised the bamboo hat on his head, and looked over here.

His eyes had no pupils and were pale.

It is still projecting a cold light outward, as if there are two pure-color glass spheres inlaid in the eye sockets.

Whoosh!

The light blue paper umbrella rotated, driving the slim figure to float to the side silently.

The men in bamboo hats and hats lined up on both sides, forming a flanking attack.

Wei Tao smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, you two. I am indeed Prince Yan's secret envoy, but I did not say that I was Prince Yan's secret envoy.

After all, there is more than one prince, and besides Prince Yan, there are also other princes near the capital."

"Where did you come from? It's best to tell the truth. Maybe I can spare your life."

The man spoke slowly, his tone becoming more and more indifferent, "You have to walk your own path. Once you make the wrong choice, it will be a mistake that will lead to eternal regrets. It will be a hundred years ago when you look back. When that time comes, it will be difficult to look back.

…”

Before he finished speaking, he disappeared without warning.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Wei Tao, and he reached out and grabbed him.

The coir raincoat shook rapidly, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder, and even the howling wind and snow were stagnant.

At the same time, the light blue paper umbrella rotated rapidly, its edge was like a blade, tearing the air and making a screaming sound.

Snap!

Put your five fingers together and burst a bunch of snowflakes.

The man in coir raincoat was suddenly startled.

The catch he was determined to win unexpectedly came to nothing.

After calming down and looking again, I realized that the young man only took half a step to one side and dodged all the attacks.

The man in the coir raincoat looked gloomy and solemn, extremely sad, and he was already thinking of retreating.

At this moment, his vision dimmed.

Centered on the place where the two people were, a large area seemed to be divided.

"This kind of power..."

"Could he be a martial arts master!?"

"Such a young martial arts master!?"

"What virtues and abilities do I have? I can actually let a martial arts master personally deal with it..."

The man in the coir raincoat's vision went dark, and he was frightened. He wanted to turn around and run away, but he was blinded by all colors and lost all sound, and completely lost all sense of the outside world.

The sound of soft footsteps was heard, and Wu Qingxuan looked at the two unconscious figures on the ground, her eyes flashing thoughtfully.

After a while, she tore the paper umbrella apart and found a note sealed with beeswax.

After opening it and taking a quick look, Wu Qingxuan's expression changed slightly, "They are not Prince Yan's secret envoys, but people from the Qinglian Sect."

Wei Tao took the note and slowly read out a few key words, "Meishan, Yunhong, Lieshan in the north of Beijing."

"People from the Qinglian Sect are also looking for them?"

He was lost in thought, and after a moment he raised his head and said, "Standing back and waiting has already paid off. We can't stay here any longer. We must leave immediately."

"Also, where is Meishan in northern Beijing?"

Wu Qingxuan identified the direction and raised her hand to point into the distance, "It's roughly at that location. If it weren't for the gloomy sky and the wind and snow, Daozi should be able to vaguely see the outline of Meishan Mountain from here."

The sky was getting dark, but the wind and snow still did not stop.

Several figures were moving quickly through the wilderness.

Snowflakes fell on her body, quickly soaking through the white robe she was wearing outside, making the clothes underneath also wet.

The cold air tightly wrapped their bodies, and even the stimulation of qi and blood could not completely stop it. It gradually sucked away the warmth from the body, and over time, even their movements became stiff and numb.

But even so, they still didn't find a place to take a rest, and they didn't even slow down their speed, and kept heading north despite the wind and snow.

Until I saw the hazy shadow at the end of my sight, it looked like a giant beast lying prone on the earth, sleeping soundly in the snowstorm.

The leading man in white robe raised his right hand.

The entire team suddenly stopped following his movements. Everyone moved in unison, and there was not even the slightest deviation in their relative positions.

Wow…

A strong wind roared past, blowing up large ice crystal snowflakes and hitting him hard on the face, making a crackling sound.

A person from behind came closer and said despite the wind and snow, "Sir, the gray shadow in front of you is Meishan."

"The elder asked us to find two people in Meishan."

The man in the white robe exhaled heavily and stared at the mountain shadow in the distance with an embarrassed expression on his face, "I thought Meishan was just a small rocky slope, but I didn't expect it to be such a large rocky mountain.

Although the mountain looks gentle and not too high, looking for people in such a large area is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and how long will it take our team to find it?"

After a pause, he asked again, "Does the blind man sent to the Acropolis have any news?"

A female voice from the team said, "Not yet, it shouldn't be so soon."

"Forget it, don't wait for him, let's set off."

Following a low shout from the man in white robe, several people behind him stood up at the same time and galloped towards the shadow in the distance.

Just took a step forward.

The man at the end of the line suddenly trembled, and then fell softly to the ground without making a sound.

The other six people stopped suddenly, their eyes expressions of uncertainty.

They saw no trace of the enemy at all, but it was an indisputable fact that a comrade lost his life without warning.

Enemies that can be seen are not scary, the real fear comes from the unknown.

The scene that just happened made their whole bodies shiver and their scalps numb, because no one knew who would die next and what kind of death they would have.

The man in white robe suddenly shouted, "Qinglian Liuhe, form a formation and spin to kill!"

Suddenly the strong wind roared, breaking up the wind and snow, and in an instant a large open space was cleared, revealing the color of the wilderness itself.

"Take it!" The man in white robe shouted again.

The six people stood silently and held their breath, looking at the gray-yellow ground around them that had been shaved off a whole layer.

"Under such an indiscriminate attack, except for martial arts masters who are transformed from heaven to humans, even enemies who are good at hiding themselves will be forced to reveal themselves."

The man in white robe looked around, the confusion in his eyes not only did not lessen, but became more intense.

"The enemy used extremely fast speed to dodge the attack the moment we formed a formation to attack?"

"Or is it that the person who killed people before was not a human being, but the demon that came to the world mentioned in the scriptures!?"

Just as the second thought flashed across his mind, the man in white robe suddenly changed his face and turned his head to look to one side.

There was a dull thud.

Another person fell to the ground and made no sound.

"Five square formations, surround and kill!" He gritted his teeth violently, his voice as cold and ruthless as the stone at his feet.

The other four people changed their positions silently, but at the moment when the figure flashed, another person's body trembled and he fell to the ground softly.

The man in white robe turned around silently, and under the gaze that could turn water into ice, the only woman in the team stopped breathing.

Between her eyebrows, a tiny hole appeared at some point. The blood was frozen as soon as it spilled out, and was immediately covered by snowflakes.

The five-square formation had already been broken before it even started.

The cold wind howled and snowflakes flew.

It was dark all around.

The white-robed man shuddered and almost bit his lower lip, "Four Elephant Formation, guard!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he was the only one left in the entire wilderness.

The man in white robe stood there blankly, as if he had turned into a thoughtless ice sculpture.

Time passed little by little.

He suddenly sighed and dropped the weapon in his hand.

He said in a desperate tone, "I admit defeat. You can kill or behead me as you wish, but let me wait and see if you can reveal your true body, so that I can die clearly."

Quietly, a figure wearing a bamboo hat and a raincoat walked through the wind and snow, slowly walking out of the darkness.

"blind!?"

The man in white robe suddenly widened his eyes, but the next moment he smiled bitterly and sighed, "It seems that the blind man also died at your hands."

"It's just that I don't understand something. My senior's cultivation is unpredictable. Why do you have to fight with us?"

Feeling the aura on the other side that was as solid as a solid stone at times and like a vast ocean at other times, the man in white robes' already fearful and despairing heart sank to the bottom.

"I have a few questions. If you can give satisfactory answers, you won't have to become a corpse on the ground like them.

But if you don’t say it, you will definitely envy the other people who can die quickly..."

Wei Tao was mid-sentence and suddenly fell silent.

Turning his head and looking to one side.

Quietly, the man in white robe covered his chest and slumped down on the cold snow.

"I didn't say no, and you haven't even asked a question yet. Why did you attack me?"

Blood overflowed from his mouth, and his eyes were full of confusion.

"Because I don't need you anymore."

Wei Tao sighed, "It's really gratifying to meet a Qinglian Grandmaster in such a wilderness."

"Grandmaster Qinglian?"

The man in white robe turned his head with difficulty and looked in the same direction, "It's the elder, it's the elder, she's here!"

At this moment, the strong wind howled.

He saw the figure wearing a high-level official uniform.

Her white clothes were flying, her feet were on green lotuses, and she came through the darkness.

Countless snowflakes seemed to have life and spirituality, spinning and flying around her.

There are also wisps of hazy mist lingering around, making the simple white clothes look particularly holy.

"Sir, help, help!"

Suddenly, the man in white robe burst out with a strong desire to survive, and even his body, which was already cold, gained a little more heat and vitality.

Suddenly.

A black and red intertwined light with a hint of pale gold cut through the night sky.

A hideous and terrifying figure suddenly appeared inside.

"A great catastrophe is approaching, the sky and the earth will be dark, demons will come to the world, and the sun and moon will have no light."

The moment this light appears.

The white-robed man's mind was inexplicably wandering, and a sentence described in the sect's classics flashed across his mind.

If the arrival of the elders is like running water or moonlight...

Then, in front of this ferocious body wrapped in black, red and light gold light, the moonlight flowing water suddenly became unstable and dangerous.

At this moment, the man in white robe was staring at the collision that occurred in the night wind and snow. His whole body seemed to be nailed to the ground, and it was extremely difficult to even move a finger.

In an instant, countless thoughts flashed through his mind.

It wasn't until a sharp claw struck out like lightning, shattering the wind and snow that filled the sky, that he was suddenly pulled back from his inexplicable trance.

The demon stretched out its claws, tore through the darkness, and swallowed up countless snowflakes, never to be seen again.

Then he sank into the middle of the rapidly blooming jade lotus platform, and no sound was heard.

The lotus platform suddenly solidified, turning from extreme movement to extreme stillness in an instant.

Plop!!!

A muffled sound swayed beside me, and a large cloud of snowflakes flew up.

The white-robed man's movements were stiff, his eyes slowly moved down, and he saw a face that should have been beautiful and graceful, but now it was covered in blood and looked like a ghost.

"Help, help me..." As soon as she opened her mouth, a large amount of blood spilled from her mouth.

"Are you an elder, calling me for help?"

Something seemed to suddenly crack in his heart, and the man in white robe suddenly smiled.

"Aren't elders in the state of masters who are transformed from heaven to humans? These days, they are aloof. Not only have they never looked at their subordinates seriously, but they even beat and punish them at will. At this time, they are no match for the demon who came to the world?"

As he spoke, he endured the severe pain in his chest, knelt down with a thud, touched his head to the ground and kowtowed.

"I have worshiped the wrong people before. From now on, I will no longer believe in the demon religion Qinglian. I only hope to become a lackey under the demon god. Even if I become the blood food in the mouth of the king, I will be willing to do so and will never regret it!"

Without even looking at the man in white robe, Wei Tao slowly came to the elder's side, grabbed her neck and lifted her up.

Looking at those frightened eyes, he said doubtfully, "I really want to know why there are so many martial arts masters in your Qinglian Sect who look powerful but are just showy in their actions."

"Also, you guys who came to Meishan in the north of the city on a snowy night should all be related to the two Taoists of the Dingxuan Sect. Is there any valuable secret hidden in them?"

"The third question is, apart from your useless grandmaster, who else is there in the Qinglian Sect around the capital, and what is their level of strength? As long as you can tell me without reservation, I will

I will spare your life."

As Wei Tao spoke, a soft ding sound suddenly sounded deep in his consciousness, and his eyes suddenly became softer.

The elder struggled desperately, but to no avail.

After crushing and breaking her defense, strands of scarlet tentacles broke through her body and completely took control of her body.

Wei Tao was not in a hurry and waited for her reply.

But after just a few breaths, I realized that something seemed not right about her condition.

The elder is dead.

The breath of life declined sharply, and he crossed the threshold of hell in an instant, leaving no room for rescue.

Wei Tao couldn't help but be slightly startled, and finally discovered that the problem seemed to occur with Youxuan Weisi.

He recalled the battle at Rock Hill in Taixuan Mountain, when he pierced Ji Shou's body with mysterious silk threads to restore his vitality. It seemed that he had encountered the same situation.

Wei Tao did not continue to think deeply about the reason, because there was still a man in white robe who was on the verge of life and death and would turn into a corpse in just a few moments.

I gave him a few healing pills, but they had no effect at all.

Wei Tao had an idea in his mind, treating the dead horse as a living horse doctor, and stretched out his hand to press the wound on the chest of the man in white robe.

Scarlet threads came out through the body, then found their way in, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Time passed little by little.

The man in white robe lay motionless on the snow, his body still shaking slightly.

Wei Tao remained silent and waited quietly.

Quietly, the status bar appeared before my eyes.

A month later, the gold coin finally grew naturally again and became one again.

He looked at the exercises one by one, and finally landed on the interface of Xuanwu Zhenjie Qisu Chapter.

Name: Qisu Chapter.

Progress: one hundred and ten.

Status: Breaking the limit for a while.

Realm: double attack.

Description: Mutually confirmed with other exercises, this exercise has undergone changes and improvements.

"If you put a gold coin into it, you will reach the second stage of breaking the limit, and the realm will also be upgraded from a double attack to a triple attack. After superimposing the cathode secret method, it will reach the level of seventeen shock attacks."

"Under such circumstances, if we fight Gong Yuan again, the seventeen combined attacks will match her Yin and Yang..."

Wei Tao closed his eyes, recalling the arm that broke through the blood net and was filled with bones. After being silent for a long time, he slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.

"If it was just me, and Gongyuan hadn't been seriously injured due to her misjudgment, and she was in her prime, it would be difficult for her to fight against her Yin and Yang killing moves."

Suddenly, the man in white robe on the ground moved.

Wei Tao gathered his thoughts and looked down.

Then he saw him stand up and kneel on the ground again, "Young man Yu Wenshang, please see your Majesty!"

He raised his head cautiously, his eyes not only filled with enthusiasm, but also enthusiasm.

"The immortal caressed my breasts, knotted my hair and received immortality. The great king and the immortal used the magic method to save the life of the villain. The villain will have no retribution unless he is shattered to pieces!"

"Your Majesty, this doesn't sound very good to me. You can change your title."

Wei Tao slowly exhaled a breath, obviously a little surprised by this result.

Grandmaster Qinglian died, and this Qinglian disciple who was not even a mysterious person was actually saved by him.

And it seems like he has changed as a person, completely different from before.

After thinking silently for a moment, Wei Tao slowly said, "Since she is dead, you can answer the question I just asked.

Also, since you are from the Qinglian Sect, you can also tell me about your organization, I am also very interested in this."

Time passed little by little.

Finally, Yu Wenshang stopped talking.

"You don't know much."

Wei Tao looked at the shadowy Meishan Mountain in the distance, "To be honest, except for the news that Qinglian Zuoshi and Saint Su Bian are here and have contact with Prince Yan, the other answers are a bit disappointing."

"If I return to the Lord, my subordinates are not high-level personnel of the demon sect, so they only know so much."

"So that's it."

Wei Tao thought silently for a moment, then turned and walked away from Meishan, "If you are not a high-ranking person, try to become a high-ranking member of the Demon Sect, so that you can know more useful information."

"What the Lord said is true. I will definitely work harder to live up to the Lord's trust!"

An hour later, the two came to a manor in the eastern suburbs of the capital.

Wei Tao did not choose to continue to Meishan.

Yuwen Shang didn't know what their purpose was in finding the two Dingxuan Daozi.

The second reason is naturally because Meishan covers a large area. It is not easy to find two people on such a dark and snowy night. It is better to come to this manor and meet the so-called Qinglian Saint. After all,

What kind of woman is she?

Wei Tao looked at the looming lights inside from a distance, "Are you sure that the Qinglian Zuo Shi and the Saint are here?"

Yu Wenshang said, "Back to my lord, I can confirm that the woman named Su has been living here. As for Zuo Envoy Wen Yan, she is missing most of the time, but sometimes she appears in the manor."

"You just stay here and I'll come as soon as I go."

When the words fell, Wei Tao was no longer where he was.

Yu Wenshang took a few steps back, hiding himself even more secretly, and waited in silence without moving.

Wei Tao secretly observed the shadow not far away for a long time before leaving quietly and sneaking into the manor.

Deep in the manor, there is a pavilion in the water.

Sitting there was a beautiful woman in a light blue dress.

Surrounded by the flying snow in the sky, she is like a green lotus in the water, bathing but not evil, giving people a pure and elegant feeling of beauty.

At this moment, the woman frowned slightly, looking at the black and white chessboard in front of her without saying a word.

Opposite her, Wu Qinglong, the eldest son of Prince Yan, smiled and said nothing.

His attention was no longer on the chessboard, nor on the wind and snow outside the pavilion, but only on the beautiful woman opposite who was so delicate that almost no flaws could be found.

Outside the pavilion, by the pool, there was an old man in gray clothes, his breath restrained, standing still.

Although they were standing in the swirling snow, their bodies were still dry, with not a single wet mark.

The old man's eyes were half open and half closed, and he seemed to have fallen asleep, but a light flashed from his eyes from time to time, and he was vigilantly paying attention to the surrounding environment.

"Miss Su, have you thought about it? If we continue to delay, the snow will get heavier and heavier."

Wu Qinglong said gently, "But then we can also go to the conservatory to continue talking with candles and make a pot of fragrant tea or boil a pot of fine wine with a few dishes of side dishes, watch the snow and chess, sip tea and drink, it is also considered leisurely

comfortable."

Su Rong blinked and rolled his eyes at Wu Qinglong, with an innocent smile like a little girl appearing on his face, "I'm tempted by what the Crown Prince said, but I still have to finish this move before talking about it."

Wu Qinglong looked down at the chess game and said with a smile, "Are you sure you want to play here? Once Miss Su makes a move, she can no longer regret it."

Su Fang's slender jade-like fingers paused on the chessboard. After thinking for a moment, he nodded heavily, "Just play here. I want to see how His Highness the Crown Prince will kill my dragon from behind."

She frowned lightly and exhaled like a blue breath.

Then let the chess piece fall gently.

At this moment, the wind and snow outside the pavilion suddenly condensed.

The old man in gray clothes suddenly opened his eyes, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

He moved, but then took back the steps he had just taken. His expression and eyes were extremely gloomy, and he stared intently at the tall figure that appeared in the Chijian Pavilion without any warning.

The man was standing beside His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Miss Su, and seemed to be watching the chess game that was about to end with great interest.

The old man in gray clothes tensed up, and several thoughts flashed through his mind. After all, he was standing on the edge of the pool like a nail, not daring to move.

After all, the chess piece did not fall.

Su Rong raised his finger slightly, turned his head and glanced, and said with a smile, "You are a true gentleman watching chess without speaking. The young master is watching our game. It seems that he is also a scholar who likes to play chess."

"Your surname is Su, and your identity is the Qinglian Saint?"

Su Rong was slightly startled, and his smile became more intense, "Young master, what are you talking about? It is not the behavior of a gentleman to wrongly accuse a little girl like this."

Wei Tao was silent for a moment, then his eyes fell on her waist and saw a green jade lotus platform as an accessory.

The next moment, he smiled gently and said, "You don't need to answer, girl, I already have the answer.

Also, a gentleman talks but never takes action, so I am not a gentleman."
