The Mighty Little Sorceress

Chapter 357: The mastermind behind the scenes

Views:

"Little Master, you mean... the reason why Xue'er was possessed by evil spirits was because someone was behind it?" Zhu Ying frowned, with a gloomy look on her face.

"Yes." Luo Xiaoman nodded, tapping his fingertips lightly on the table, "How do you think Xie Sui knew about you getting the Spiritual Heart Fruit?"

"Also, why did he wake up suddenly and there was no movement before?"

Hearing this, Zhu Ying's eyes gradually turned cold. Even a fool could understand that there was obviously someone behind the scenes.

"Little disciple, since I promised you to cure your sweetheart, I will definitely fulfill this promise." Luo Xiaoman held his chin with his small hand and said calmly: "Plus you are my little disciple. I will also find out the mastermind behind this."

Zhu Ying raised her eyes and looked at Luo Xiaoman with surprise.

At such a young age, he shows such a calm character, especially those smart eyes that seem to see through everything, making people feel that what is hidden here is not a little girl, but a scheming soul.

As he got to know Luo Xiaoman, he became increasingly unable to see through this little girl.

"Thank you, little master."

"You don't have to be so polite." Luo Xiaoman twitched his lips, changed the subject, and said, "Think about it, who around you is most likely to be the mastermind behind this."

"Second Prince." Zhu Ying said directly without thinking, "Besides him, I can't think of anyone else who would do this?"

"Second Prince?" Luo Xiaoman raised his eyebrows. Last time he and the Second Prince met at the Baiqi Building, and they had some unpleasant experiences with each other.

Judging from the situation at the time, the second prince was very peaceful and not very arrogant. It was hard to imagine that he was the mastermind behind Yingxue being possessed by evil spirits.

"Little Master, don't be deceived by the second prince's appearance." Zhu Ying curled her lips and sneered: "He is just a wolf in sheep's clothing."

"Others think that I will do whatever it takes to seize the crown prince's position. However, the second prince has done far more harmful things behind his back than I have."

"I can imagine that he wanted Xue'er to be possessed by evil spirits in order to disturb my mood." He clenched his fists and his tone became serious. "Because Xue'er is my life, no one can stop her."

Hearing this, Luo Xiaoman understood the reason.

The second prince regards the third prince as the most powerful opponent for the position of prince, and will naturally try every means to hinder Zhu Ying. For this reason, it is understandable to start with Yingxue.

What's more, once Yingxue is controlled by evil spirits, Zhu Ying, who loves her deeply, will only be led away.

"That's right! Where is the current prince?" Luo Xiaoman turned his eyes and asked doubtfully: "I remember that the current emperor has three children."

"My eldest brother is at the border and rarely comes back here. What's more, he only pursues greater power and has no desire for the crown prince's position."

"I understand." Luo Xiaoman nodded and gave Mo Yuan a look.

Mo Yuan understood it and disappeared from the room as soon as his figure moved.

Seeing his ghostly movement, Zhu Ying's eyes trembled. If there was such a person lurking around, it would be really easy to kill him.

Fortunately, he and Luo Xiaoman were not enemies, and he was also fortunate that Ji Wuya was caught in the middle, preventing him from being impulsive and seeking death.

"Wait." Luo Xiaoman took out a jade talisman and a bronze mirror, placing them in front of him, the corners of his lips raised slightly. "The truth will soon surface on the mirror."
