Mo Zeng walked towards the torch slowly and cautiously.
As they got closer, under the bright orange light of the torch, Mo Zengzhi saw clearly an unfamiliar face.
In fact, it is not strange to say that it is strange.
Although he had never seen this person in person, he was familiar with it. Besides, Brother Thumb happened to know the person named "Ximen Jingxuan" very well, so he was no longer unfamiliar with this person.
However, Mo Zengzhi was still surprised when he saw it was Ximen Jingxuan.
Even though he had already learned from Brother Thumb that Ximen Jingxuan had incredible speed, he was surprised to be able to find Wushan Town as his target so quickly.
He threatened his little thumb with his thumb to keep silent, just because he didn't want people to know his details. After all, as the emperor of Qiming Kingdom, appearing in Dongzhu was a politically sensitive matter related to the two countries, and he didn't want Ximen Jingxuan to know.
Learn about Lin Xiner's whereabouts.
As a result, the little thumb died, but the people still chased him. When he was unprepared, he appeared in front of him and blocked his way.
"Prince Xuan, I didn't expect you to come first." Mo Zengzhi stood in front of Ximen Jingxuan and said.
Try to keep your tone casual and try not to sound surprised.
And what he said was very coincidental. The word "Xian" not only generously admitted his intention to come to Dongzhu this time, but also clearly told Ximen Jingxuan that he had not met Lin Xiner yet.
On the one hand, he insinuated that Ximen Jingxuan's speed was "too fast" and he lost track of people so quickly.
"According to my speed, Xin'er must have arrived in the Wushan Town area." Ximen Jingxuan said.
Mo Zenzhi called him Prince Xuan just to keep him out of Dongzhu and prevent him from handling this matter as Dongzhu's Imperial Master. It was just an identity, and he never cared about it.
He just came a step late and met Mo Zengzhi back to Wushan Town, but he didn't know where he had been. That place must be the place where Mo Zengzhi hid Xin'er. However, there are many mountains in Dongzhu, so hiding in any mountain would not be good.
Check, and he came here with the speed of the Shadow Breaking Skill, and the manpower was still behind and could not be used.
Mo Zengzhi was cunning enough and separated from Xin'er in time.
"Really? But I haven't seen anyone yet, and none of the people I sent out have come back yet." Mo Zenzhi pretended to be surprised, then turned to smile and said, "Xin'er is not an ordinary woman, maybe she was halfway there
The man who has ruined me has gone back again. Prince Xuan should go back and have a look."
Ximen Jingxuan's indifferent eyes suddenly turned cold when he heard Mo Zengzhi call him "Xin'er".
"You have someone Xin'er cares about in your hands, and she won't go back."
"Haha, what Prince Xuan said is ridiculous? Isn't it you that Xin'er cares about the most? Or is Prince Xuan broad-minded and able to tolerate Xin'er being with other people?"
Mo Zenzhi wanted to use a mocking tone to overshadow Ximen Jingxuan.
Yes, when he saw Ximen Jingxuan for the first time and saw that green shirt standing proudly in the light of the fire, he felt ashamed. He couldn't compare to that kind of indomitable arrogance. It also came from the royal family, and it also came from the royal family.
He has been exposed to the majesty of the royal family since he was a child, and he has always believed that he is the most emperor-like king in the Qi Ming Kingdom today. However, when he saw Ximen Jingxuan with his own eyes, he realized what Brother Thumb said about not being an emperor but being better than an emperor.
Only a person who can suppress others without relying on a dragon chair can be regarded as a true king.
"You don't understand Xin'er, and I don't bother to answer you." Ximen Jingxuan said coldly, not paying attention to Mo Zengzhi's ridicule.
No one will be able to drive a wedge between him and Xin'er.
"So what if I don't understand? Counting the time, my acquaintance with Xin'er is no shorter than the time you have known Xin'er. You and Xin'er only got along for a few months, but I have been with her for nearly a year since then.
Times have changed, who can know how many changes have taken place?" Mo Zengzhi said with a smile.
"Isn't Mo Zengye also with Xin'er, or did he take Xin'er away from me? What's the result? Times have changed, but the only thing that remains unchanged is the original intention."
Mo Zenzhi heard the chill in Ximen Jingxuan's words, and also heard the warmth in them.
He knew that Mo Zengye, who was taken away, would not end well. The coldness frightened him, and the warmth made him jealous.
Times have changed, but the original intention remains unchanged. That is a feeling that is stronger than gold and stone.
"In that case, Prince Xuan will stay and wait for Xin'er with me." Mo Zengzhi said, walking aside with his hands behind his hands, looking up at the stars in the sky.
Ximen Jingxuan put out the torch and walked behind Mo Zengzhi, standing with him in the darkness.
Hearing no sound behind him, Mo Zengzhi felt a chill running down his spine, as an invisible force weighed heavily on him.
With Ximen Jingxuan watching over him, he couldn't do anything, let alone do anything strange and let him discover Lin Xiner's whereabouts.
"Master, is it you?"
Someone stood not far in front and asked carefully.
It was Mo Zengzhi's men who couldn't wait for him to come and went out to find the way to investigate.
Mo Zengzhi heard the man's voice and responded.
The man quickly ran forward, cupped his hands and whispered, "Master, why are you standing here alone? Your subordinates are all waiting for the emperor's orders."
alone?
Mo Zeng was startled and turned around, only to find that Ximen Jingxuan had left at some point.
"This bastard boy!"
Mo Zenzhi couldn't help but cursed in a deep voice, causing him to stand here in a daze.
"Master?" The subordinates were puzzled as to why Mo Zengzhi was cursing.
"I am scolding Ximen Jingxuan." Mo Zengzhi said.
This was the first time he was tricked by Ximen Jingxuan, but as the king of a country representing the Qi Ming Kingdom, it was the second time he was tricked by Ximen Jingxuan.
It is really hateful that a dignified country is being tricked by an outsider one after another! It is even more annoying to think that when he ordered the officers and soldiers from the sea area to encircle and suppress the sea gang, he still gave Ximen Jingxuan the opportunity to run to Dongzhu and cause trouble.
"Dongzhu Imperial Master? He's here?" His subordinates didn't believe it, thinking that Mo Zengzhi was settling an old score.
"You go back first and inform everyone. Those who stay in Wushan Town will return to Qiming Kingdom first. I will arrive soon." Mo Zengzhi ordered.
In fact, there were not many people who sneaked into Dongzhu with him. They were all confidants he cultivated while at the border. After all, it was the first time to arrive in Dongzhu through the Demon Realm, and it was just a way to explore the way.
"Master, won't you go with your subordinates?" The subordinates were a little worried. After all, the person he left behind was the king of a country.
Their master left Qi Ming Kingdom to avoid the three elders and act privately, and the risk he took was very high.
"Things have changed. According to my will, you will retreat immediately. Don't worry about me. I have my own arrangements!" Mo Zengzhi promised steadfastly.
After handing over his men, Mo Zengzhi returned to Wushan Town by the original route and searched outside the town gate for a while, but there was no trace of Ximen Jingxuan.
"Could he really believe my words and return to the county capital?" Mo Zengzhi thought to himself. Even he didn't believe this answer. But if not, where could Ximen Jingxuan go?
