But this foreshadowing is not what is said verbally.
Luo Wusheng could clearly see that Night Crow wanted to get closer to him...or rather, it was obvious to everyone.
He came up to chat about some small things, then used the relationship between Lao Wang and the number one rich woman on the list to promote the relationship between the Six Gates spies and the Magic Weapon Pavilion, and then pushed it to the relationship between himself and him.
Now even the brothers are calling them.
What does he want to do? Why is the Six Gates so idle now
Luo Wusheng was thoughtful, glanced at Miss Qilin who seemed to be unable to hold back, but smiled.
"Old Wang and Miss Su do have a deep relationship, and my Magic Weapon Pavilion is indeed short of manpower, so let's do as Brother Night Crow says."
As a boss, I still have to help my subordinates with their love lives.
"That's great. This way, Susu won't have to worry about the spy issue, and her family can also make an engagement with you, brother. Speaking of this engagement..."
At this moment, Luo Wusheng understood.
The real purpose is revealed.
Night Crow learned about his engagement with the Empress from fellow Taoist Da Zhuang!
So... coming here to establish a relationship with me, is it because you want to...
Should we hint at this matter in front of the two main parties
Boom.
There was a slight sound on the table.
However, it was Miss Qilin who knocked on the table, causing Night Crow to stop talking.
"There are still matters concerning the demon race and the dispute over the human immortal ranking that need to be handled by the Six Gates these days, so it is not convenient for us to stay for long."
Miss Qilin said in a cold voice: "Let's talk business."
Night Crow was stunned.
(I was careless. I should have let Qilin know about the engagement first... Anyway, I seemed to be able to sense a momentary fluctuation of aura when the engagement was mentioned. Although I can't tell where it came from, the information Xuanming gave me should be correct...)
The goal has almost been achieved.
He was just thinking of getting closer to a certain candidate for empress that he had bet on... And since Luo Wusheng's return, his workload had dropped by more than half, from extreme high pressure back to normal high pressure, which made him feel that he could still squeeze out time.
But there is no need to rush. After all, I spent the whole night last night just beginning to accept the existence of this engagement.
So Night Crow straightened his collar, flipped his hand, and placed something on the table.
"That's true, this..."
"This is the jade talisman that can lift the blockade outside the Wangxianlou Inn."
Miss Qilin took over the conversation and explained, "What happened at Wangxianlou Inn earlier attracted too much attention. Now is a time of trouble. In order to reduce the impact of this incident, the Six Gates first set up an array to seal it off... But now that you are back, the place will naturally be returned to you."
The news that Luo Wusheng was the new boss behind the scenes of Wangxianlou Inn had spread since that day.
Student Ye Ya, who was deprived of the right to speak, gave away the jade talisman in his hand with some embarrassment, but quickly adjusted his mentality.
"In addition to what should be given to Brother Luo, I also have some interesting information..."
… …
Luo Wusheng looked at the two people with the Six Gates Gold Seals with a strange expression as they teleported away.
"The Taoist leader Ji Yanyao is temporarily taking over the position of the head of the Taoist Equipment Pavilion..."
Before leaving, classmate Night Crow did leave some information behind.
There are a few pages of written documents, which are said to be about some changes in the royal city in recent days. I haven't had time to read them yet.
The other thing is the verbal information.
It is said that it was just obtained this morning, and he guaranteed that his Six Gates spy had obtained the first-hand information, and had not had time to pass it out, so that his Magic Weapon Pavilion could make preparations early.
But... is it really okay to say this in front of the real owner
And didn't Xuanming already return to the Six Gates? Even the engagement was leaked. Didn't he say that he had a good relationship with the Taoist chief
(Forget it, don’t worry about these things for now.)
The Daoqi Pavilion and the like had long been irrelevant, and Luo Wusheng had even almost forgotten the name of the Pavilion Master who had gone against him and disappeared.
The information he obtained could only allow him to change the name of Daoqi Pavilion in his mind to "the current residence of the Empress's Taoist body."
Compared to these...
Luo Wusheng weighed the jade talisman he had obtained in his hand.
I was originally considering where to go to activate the Holy Son's Order, but now it seems that it is no longer necessary.
Holding the jade talisman, one can remove the formation that blocks the six doors, or simply enter one.
In this case, the Wangxianlou Inn within the formation is indeed the most suitable place.
only…
"I want an explanation for what happened that day..."
Thinking of the Wangxianlou Inn, and his so-called good fortune that could change his fate, and comparing himself then with now, Luo Wusheng took a deep breath as he recalled the opportunity for the change in himself.
I don’t know where that white-haired loli ran off to.
Chapter 308 I will talk to him alone when the time comes (Part 2)
Deep in the imperial palace.
A file was closed and fell on the table, making a sound that was noticeably duller than normal.
"His Majesty?"
Wutong, who was standing aside, looked at the beautiful girl whose face suddenly darkened, and couldn't help but call out softly.
"… It's nothing. I'm just a little troubled by the demon formation."
The empress, dressed in an imperial robe, casually took out another file from the side and opened it, but there was a hint of annoyance in her beautiful phoenix eyes.
In my mind, a newly formed memory flashed.
The picture shows a figure wearing a feather mask, speaking to "himself" as if telling a shocking secret.
[Qilin, I have a big secret to tell you... Why are you looking at me like that? Don't worry, the information is authentic! ]
[Do you remember what I told you before, about His Majesty and the Demon Sect Saint? ]
[…Haha! With this engagement, the possibility of that boy becoming your majesty's future empress has increased a lot! I know you also like that boy, why don't you…]
[Eh? Don't leave! Hiss—you don't really like that guy, do you?]
…Oh, Night Crow, what a Night Crow.
As expected, there was too little work for him.
I am still too kind.
(It just so happens that the possible demon formation above the royal city has not yet been thoroughly investigated...)
The Empress' eyes flickered, but she heard Wutong on the side say worriedly, "Your Majesty's worries are indeed justified... The three years of preparation of the demon tribe is really unexpected. They hid that level of special demon formation so well. If it is really launched in the royal city without any precautions, the consequences will be disastrous."
“However, fortunately, we had previously conducted a thorough investigation in the vicinity due to the incident at Wangxianlou Inn. Coincidentally, the changes in the power of heaven and earth caused by the heavenly calamity allowed us to find the first trace of the eye of the demon array, so we were able to be prepared for this incident.”
The worry in the eyes under the withered leaf mask dissipated a lot: "Now after investigation, three demon formations have been destroyed. In addition, we have already prepared for this. Even if the demon tribe still has hidden demon formations, we may not be in a passive position. We can even use them to our advantage."
"And all this is thanks to your majesty's order to investigate all suspicious places near Wangxian Tower that day!"
As the most senior member of the Six Gates Golden Seal and one of the Empress's true confidants, Wutong is well versed in the art of language.
At this moment, if she said what she really wanted to remind people, "This is all due to the contribution of the Holy Son of the Demon Sect," although it was not impossible, it still felt like it was leaving too much of a mark.
Wutong Jinzhang, who is mainly responsible for arousing the affection of his own Majesty and indirectly strengthening the presence of a certain demon sect's saint in the eyes of his Majesty, considers himself very capable in these matters.
She had always thought that those stubborn old ministers who could only submit documents to persuade His Majesty to take a queen were really useless.
You see, His Majesty's current expression shows that he is remembering the Holy Son of the Demon Sect, right
"The reason why we were able to find traces of the demon formation is mainly because Pavilion Master Luo caused a heavenly calamity there that day, which changed the situation of heaven and earth and left many suspicious points that must be investigated... If not for this, I'm afraid it would take a long time for the matter of the demon formation to be discovered."
The empress shook her head slightly: "When I went to look for him that day, I never thought that the end result would be like this."
As she spoke, she flipped through another file.
"The battle for the Human Immortal Ranking is imminent. If the demon race really wants to attack the Immortal Nation, generally speaking, they will not choose to do so during the Human Immortal Ranking battle. After all, this will only anger all the human clans participating in the battle... So the most likely choice is to choose after the Human Immortal Ranking battle."
"But there are always unexpected things, and we have already eliminated a lot of their preparations over the past three years. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for them..."
"No... If the Demon Concubine recovers her peak strength later, perhaps it won't matter how long they wait."
At that time, if the late emperor had not returned and the imperial temple was still closed, we would have no choice but to ask the Taoist master for help.
All the files are closed.
There was silence in the hall for a moment.
"Your Majesty..."
Wutong seemed to want to say something, but the empress also spoke.
"... Regarding the matter of the demon array, maybe Pavilion Master Luo has some clues. It just so happens that I have something to ask him. I will ask him to come here tomorrow... the day after tomorrow. No, secretly ask him to come to the Emperor's Pond."
The Empress looked at the file without looking away, but she said, "I will talk to him alone then."
These words made Wutong visibly stunned, but he quickly lowered his head.
"yes."
"By the way, remember to ask Night Crow to come over later. There will be a new mission for him."
… …
dusk.
The crowd outside the Magic Weapon Pavilion finally dispersed.
Obviously, everyone can see that they can't see the scenes they want to see today.
But no one was disappointed, after all, everyone was mentally prepared.
The Magic Weapon Pavilion also closed at about this time.
At the end of the day, the new disciples of the Demon Sect were doing quite well, but Luo Wusheng still gave them a final training.
The main reason was that this first day was indeed a little beyond his imagination. It was too idle, so idle that he always felt something was wrong.
No one outside dared to cause trouble in the territory of the Demon Sect's Holy Son, and in the end only two groups of guests came in.
One batch has six doors, and the other batch also has six doors.
When Luo Wusheng heard Wutong say that the Empress' daughter would meet him in the Imperial Palace the day after her death, he was a little confused.
Didn't I just send off Miss Qilin, the mortal body of my own majesty? Why did the emperor summon me right away
But after a little thought, he understood the reason.
This is something that His Majesty wants to talk to me specifically in the capacity of the Empress. After all, some things can only be discussed in this capacity.
(That’s what happens when you have too many accounts… But this is a good thing, and it’s for this reason that I can put the engagement aside for now.)
(Since I have to meet the Empress the day after tomorrow, should I try to activate the Holy Son Order tonight? Otherwise, it will be a waste of time if I wait until tomorrow night...)
After making the decision, Luo Wusheng told his junior sister the two things truthfully, and asked her to go back and inform her that he would not be going back tonight.
But when he mentioned meeting the empress, he vaguely noticed some emotional fluctuations in Bai Xiaoyao.
Um
Before he could think more, he saw the little devil girl showing a well-behaved smile and said that she would definitely convey it to sister Yuli.
So Luo Wusheng realized it again.
Ordinary disciples of the Demon Sect would not talk about engagements casually, and no one would believe them if they did, but what about Xiao Yuli and Bai Xiaoyao
Damn, I've had too many things on my mind these days and always overlooked these little details.
But if I explain it now, it would seem like the attempt to cover up something is only making it more obvious. I'd better just believe in the glorious image in everyone's mind that I am not interested in women.
