Ye Xue, Zhou Zaichu and Zhou Zaichu boarded the ship in early September and left Alcatraz Island. Because there were more than a dozen killers familiar with the Netherworld Sea on the ship this time, it did not take long to return to the Qinglong Empire from Alcatraz Island via the Suzaku Empire.
It doesn't take long, but it saves about one-third of the time compared to when we arrived.
Ye Xue set out in early September and arrived at the Qinglong Empire in late September.
After getting off the boat and sending away the killers on the boat, Ye Xue and Zhou Chao went straight to the Princess's Mansion.
At this time, the sun sets, the bright moon shines on the earth in the deep sky, and there are scattered stars dotted in the sky.
Ye Xue and Zhou Zaichu got off the boat and bought two horses to travel. Not long after, they arrived at the princess's mansion in the west of the imperial city.
When he reined in his horse and dismounted, the guards at the entrance of the group leader's mansion had already recognized Zhou Chao Trouble.
The guards went to the mansion to report, and some guards came forward to lead the horses.
Ye Xue handed the stiff rope in his hand to the guard, turned around and was about to leave. Zhou Zaitu was startled and said: "County..." The word 'Jun' was just spoken. Zhou Zaitu remembered that Ye Xue was dressed in men's clothing to hide his identity.
, immediately changed his words and said: "Sir, where are you going?"
The guard leading the horse looked at Ye Xue curiously when he saw Zhou Cai was calling Mr. Ye Xue.
At this glance, I just felt that Ye Xue's face was like white jade, and her figure was elegant and noble. I was surprised that there was a person like Ye Xue in the world with such outstanding grace and jade trees. At the same time, I also guessed that Ye Xue was the one in Beijing.
A gentleman's son.
Ye Xue walked into the darkness, and she only said one word to Zhou Chaotou.
"Tell Luomei and Luolan that I will be back later!"
Before he finished speaking, Ye Xue's figure had disappeared into the darkness.
*****
The evening wind blew, and Ye Xue's figure shuttled quickly through the dark night. Ari, the white ball boy, did not sit on Ye Xue's shoulders, but followed Ye Xue's footsteps and ran on the ground.
Recently, Bai Tuanzi has been "bearing the humiliation" and being trained by Honglian, and now his speed is no slower than Ye Xue.
Ye Xue is dressed in black brocade clothes, and can come and go freely in the dark night like a ghost. Although Baituanzi Ahli has snow-white fur that attracts attention, it is extremely fast. When running at full strength, it is nothing more than a
White lightning - even if someone sees it, they will only think that they are dazzled.
Ye Xue and Ah Li hid themselves in the darkness. As fast as lightning, in just a few seconds, they sneaked from outside the Princess's Mansion into the former Fourth Prince's Mansion, now the Prince's Mansion, Xuanyuan Aotian's Mansion.
Maybe it's a coincidence... maybe it's Xuanyuan Aotian's rapid progress in kung fu recently... or maybe it's the light of understanding that makes Ye Xue, who has not gone through the mission investigation beforehand, intuitively come to Xuanyuan Aotian's house.
He went to the study room and saw Xuanyuan Aotian's figure behind the desk; and Xuanyuan Aotian also called out her name the moment Ye Xue stopped at his window:
"Snow?"
Xuanyuan Aotian, who called out Ye Xue's name, held the pen without moving. He looked out the window. The emotions in his eyes were complicated and difficult to distinguish. Only the expectation and caution were so obvious.
Ye Xue stood outside the window, motionless. When she heard Xuanyuan Aotian's voice, she even forgot to breathe for a moment.
... After an unknown amount of time, Xuanyuan Aotian put down his pen, walked to the window, and called out tentatively: "Snow?"
