According to reports from his subordinates, Situ Cang knew that Rong Ruihan was acting with Ye Xiuwen and "Yao Mo".
This is also the reason why Situ Cang needs to find other people from the Xuyang Sect - Rong Ruihan has a deep understanding of the Imperial Master lineage, and can naturally make many corresponding countermeasures to guard against the endless formations of the Imperial Master. Therefore, After trying several times, Situ Cang found that it was difficult to find these three people from Rong Ruihan.
Rong Ruihan was like a slippery catfish. Before the subordinates sent by the Imperial Master could fully find their traces, they disappeared into the vast sea of people again.
Therefore, Situ Cang planned to change the target of tracking to Ye Xiuwen, the first disciple of Xuyang Sect's Lintian Peak.
Qin Lingyu led a group of Xuyang Sect disciples into the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion of Lieyan Kingdom. The flowers and plants along the way made them feel a strange sense of mystery, and also made them feel the atmosphere of Lieyan Kingdom. The master's attainments in formations are profound.
Situ Cang's servant took them to the guest hall, bowed down, and left.
After Qin Lingyu and the others waited for a while, Situ Cang slowly walked in, with a gloomy aura about him.
It's no wonder that the son who originally had high hopes has become like this, and no one can be happy.
"Senior Situ." Qin Lingyu stood up on his own initiative and bowed to Situ Cang.
The other disciples of Xuyang Sect also followed Qin Lingyu and clasped their fists.
Although Situ Cang asked them to wait here for a long time, Situ Cang's cultivation level was so much higher than theirs that these disciples of the Xuyang Sect could only complain silently in their hearts and never dare to show it to them. face.
This is the eternal law of the world of cultivation, respecting the strong.
Situ Cang nodded lukewarmly, raised his hand in mid-air and said, "Sit down."
After Qin Lingyu and others sat down, Situ Cang said calmly: "I came to you today because I want to talk about Ye Xiuwen, a disciple of your Xuyang Sect."
"This... Senior Brother Ye's behavior is actually his personal matter and has nothing to do with our Xuyang Sect. Please don't blame us, Senior Situ."
Qin Lingyu quickly distanced himself from the relationship to avoid harming Chi Yu.
"I didn't say I wanted to blame you. I still know clearly what is right and what is wrong." Situ Cang said unhappily, and Qin Lingyu nodded in agreement.
Seeing that no one interrupted him, Situ Cang continued: "The disciple of your Xuyang Sect named 'Ye Xiuwen' has now colluded with the felons of Lieyan Kingdom, and they are colluding with each other. I hope that you can kill your relatives with justice and help. I will use my strength to annihilate the enemy."
"The felon is..."
"It is the eldest prince, Rong Ruihan, who injured my disciple and poisoned the leader of Lieyan Kingdom." Situ Cang said one word at a time, and the last three words were almost spoken through gritted teeth. squeezed out from between the teeth.
Everyone in the Xuyang Sect looked at each other in shock, never expecting that Ye Xiuwen would actually know Rong Ruihan, the eldest prince of Lieyan Kingdom.
"I wonder what Senior Situ needs us to do?" Qin Lingyu asked in a calm tone, but a glint flashed in his eyes.
Unexpectedly, Ye Xiuwen directly offended the national master of Lieyan Kingdom. It was really a great opportunity to get rid of Ye Xiuwen.
No matter how powerful "Yao Mo's" talismans and formations are, what's the use? Can "he" compare to the national preceptor of Lieyan Kingdom? The corners of Qin Lingyu's mouth curved in an almost imperceptible arc.
"I only need you to provide some tokens that belong to the Xuyang Sect. Of course, it would be even better if you can have Ye Xiuwen's personal belongings, so that I can quickly find their traces."
"Of course that's no problem." Qin Lingyu said, taking out some tokens from the storage ring and presenting them to Situ Cang with both hands.
Ke Xinwen thought for a while, and took out something from the storage ring, and said to Situ Cang: "Senior Situ, this small ornament was a gift from Yao Mo to Ye Xiuwen. Ye Xiuwen dropped it during the fight. If you go down, it may be more useful than other tokens."
After saying that, he also presented the things in his hand to Situ Cang.
He had shown this ornament to Situ Cang before, thinking of blaming the second prince's injury on Ye Xiuwen. Unexpectedly, Situ Cang revealed his thoughts and the matter was settled. .
This time, he believed that Situ Cang would not let Ye Xiuwen go again.
"Very good. As expected, most of the disciples of the Xuyang Sect are sensible people." Situ Cang nodded with satisfaction, his face slightly brightened.
Everyone exhaled a long breath - of course, except for Di Le, who was a relatively upright person. He had a better relationship with Ke Xinwen before, so he helped Ke Xinwen in everything, and since Ye Xiuwen saved After his death, he considered himself Ye Xiuwen's younger brother.
Even if this is just his unilateral determination.
He lowered his head and racked his brains to think of how to secretly convey the news.
Yu Wanrou, who had been sitting aside and listening silently for a long time, thought for a while, twisted the silk handkerchief in her hand, and finally mustered up the courage to ask: "Master Imperial Master, I wonder... what happened to the second prince?"
Yu Wanrou took out the spiritual spring for the second prince to use because she wanted the imperial master and the second prince to owe her a debt of gratitude. Unexpectedly, several days had passed and she had not heard any news about the second prince. I don’t know if the other person has recovered.
Yu Wanrou regards this as an "investment", and naturally wants to get rewards for her efforts. Even if she can't be the second prince's concubine for the time being, it would be nice to get some rewards.
Unexpectedly, when she came this time, the Imperial Master didn't even mention this matter, which made her feel like her work was in vain.
The reason why Yu Wanrou could not get news about the second prince was because Situ Cang blocked the news from the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion. Not to mention Yu Wanrou, no one in the palace of Lieyan Kingdom even knew about the regression of the second prince's cultivation. Reached the first level of Qi training.
Of course, this is except for the second prince’s mother-concubine, Concubine Ming.
If those ministers were to know that the second prince's cultivation had regressed to the first level of Qi training, the second prince's position as heir apparent would definitely be shaken, which was something Situ Cang didn't want to see at all.
He still had not given up his intention to push his son to the supreme throne. Especially when Rong Yebin's cultivation was damaged, Situ Cang's thoughts became even stronger.
His son deserves the best!
As soon as Yu Wanrou asked her question, Situ Cang's dark and unpredictable eyes fell lightly on her.
A chill ran down Yu Wanrou's spine, and she felt as if a quenched scrutiny had penetrated directly from the outer layer of her skin to the inner layer of her skin.
Situ Cang was indeed examining Yu Wanrou. In his opinion, the fact that Rong Yebin's cultivation level had declined must not be spread. He wanted to determine whether Yu Wanrou's question was unintentional or intentional.
If he was deliberately testing... He wouldn't mind finding an opportunity to kill Yu Wanrou!
Yu Wanrou was unsure, so she could only stiffen her body, twitching the corners of her lips at Situ Cang, trying her best to show a "soft" smile.
She can only do this. For Yu Wanrou, her biggest "weapon" against men is not her cultivation, but her appearance, and of course, her personal space.
After Situ Cang looked at Yu Wanrou for a while, he determined that this was just an unintentional question from a mindless woman, so he stopped going into details.
"Thank you for your concern, little monk. Disciple, he is fine." Situ Cang said calmly.
After Yu Wanrou broke out in a cold sweat, she didn't dare to think about any reward she could get. She could only stiffly twitch the corners of her mouth and quickly lowered her head.
However, Yu Wanrou's heart was still full of doubts -
Why does the Imperial Master have this attitude towards me? Didn't those spiritual springs work? It's impossible. Every time I'm seriously injured, I can heal quickly after drinking the spiritual spring.
Yu Wanrou bit her lower lip, puzzled.
How could she have imagined that the second prince would not only be seriously injured and unable to recover this time, but his cultivation would also drop to the level of qi training.
With the items provided by Qin Lingyu and Ke Xinwen, Situ Cang quickly re-targeted Rong Ruihan and the others and sent his own men to hunt them down.
Situ Cang wanted to break the necks of these people with his own hands, but before that, he suddenly had the idea of teasing the prey and enjoying the prey struggling in despair. This idea was so strong that Situ Cang temporarily He chose to sit on the sidelines and wait until Rong Ruihan and the others were seriously injured before taking action.
In the past few days, Rong Ruihan and the others had been ambushed several times. It was as if the other party could determine their location in advance, and each attack was very precise.
Rong Ruihan did not expect that things would change again, so he could only recall some of his subordinates and ask them to resist the ambush of these people with him.
However, compared to Situ Cang, Rong Ruihan's power was still limited. The men sent by Situ Cang became more and more powerful, making Rong Ruihan's counterattack more and more difficult.
It's like an experienced cat, slowly increasing the strength under its claws, just to watch the mouse struggle and whine before it dies.
Today, Ye Xiuwen and Rong Ruihan had a lot of troubles on their bodies, but Jun Xiaomo, on the other hand, did not suffer many injuries because he was protected by these two people.
Jun Xiaomo asked these two people to take care of themselves first and ignore her, but when it came time to fight, these two people would unconsciously protect Jun Xiaomo behind them, as if out of instinct.
Jun Xiaomo could still understand Ye Xiuwen doing this. Not only did he understand, but he was also sad, feeling that he was becoming a burden to his senior brother every time.
And if Rong Ruihan did this, Jun Xiaomo wouldn't be able to understand it. She didn't seem to be familiar with the eldest prince? For what reason did the eldest prince protect him again and again
Jun Xiaomo really couldn't figure it out, so he simply went to Rong Ruihan to ask clearly.
"Don't think too much, I just happened to save you." Rong Ruihan said calmly and walked out with the sound transmission paper crane in his hand.
is that so? Jun Xiaomo was speechless for a moment facing Rong Ruihan's back, and simply put the matter behind him.
There was no need for her to waste energy thinking about things she couldn't understand. The most important thing was to improve her own strength first, otherwise she would always be a burden.
Jun Xiaomo took out the magic stone in the storage ring and went to meditate. This magic stone was exactly the one found in Jiang Yutong's cave.
Rong Ruihan, who was far away from Jun Xiaomo, released the sound-transmitting paper crane with a calm expression, and then stood there for a long time, as if thinking about something or recalling something.
He really couldn't answer "Yao Mo", why he would protect him unconsciously.
But he had a feeling that maybe this was related to a dream he had for many years...
