Under the dim sky, people were coming and going on the street. Although there were street lights and other things to enhance the night atmosphere, Xia Lei could not feel the presence of night at all.
Ahead is Nut House, the intelligence network base of the Butterfly Tribe. Xia Lei had already seen through Cai Jianren's existence, and that guy was making out with the shop owner. He had met the shopkeeper twice. He was a little older than Cai Jianren, and she was considered a beautiful woman with a good figure among the women of the Butterfly Tribe. She gave Xia Lei the impression of a gentle, decent, and honest woman, but she never expected to get involved with Cai Jianren.
A strange smile appeared on the corner of Xia Lei's mouth, "That guy Cai Jianren actually got involved with his subordinates. It seems that the atmosphere of the Butterfly Tribe is not as simple as I thought. It is also very open."
In the Nut House, Cai Jianren suddenly pulled down the female shopkeeper's skirt, and the scene suddenly became unbearable.
Xia Lei wanted to look away, but he couldn't suppress the curiosity in his heart. The butterfly people were so petite, what would it be like to do that kind of exercise
Curiosity kills the eyes, just like this peek, a fire suddenly lit up in Xia Lei's belly. He couldn't help but picture Cai Ling in his mind. She was actually his woman. She gave him milk before she was married, and according to Nightingale, she was even his unmarried wife. Now that he saw the female shopkeeper's secrets and methods, he couldn't control his desires and bad thoughts.
Being petite is sometimes an irresistible temptation.
Suddenly, there was a wave of energy in the void.
Xia Lei suddenly jumped to the side, and at that moment, an energy arrow flew past the place where he had just stood. On the street, several pedestrians were attacked without even knowing what was happening, and their bodies were blown into pieces alive!
After killing several pedestrians, the energy suddenly increased in height and flew away in the blink of an eye. It feels like it is not an energy arrow, but an energy body with thinking.
Xia Lei's eyes moved to the direction where the energy arrow flew, and then he jumped into the air, leaving an afterimage of his body in the void.
Under the dim sky, a figure hurriedly turned around and fled in another direction. Although he was following a long distance, Xia Lei could still see his face clearly, as well as the simple and strange bow in his hand. There was no quiver on his body. The energy arrow that seemed to have thinking energy that he shot just now was obviously shot from the bow, and it did not need arrows.
That man is an assassin.
He hid in the sky and sniped Xia Lei with an energy bow from a high position. However, he obviously did not expect that Xia Lei would find the energy arrow with a trace of energy fluctuations, easily avoid it, and then turn around and chase him.
The assassin suddenly fell rapidly and plunged into a residential area.
Xia Lei was also a little surprised by the assassin's speed and reaction. As soon as he started chasing, the assassin judged that he was not as fast as him and immediately hid in a settlement with complex people and complicated terrain.
"Who is this guy? If there are different levels of assassins in this world, then this guy should be at the top level. Only one person who can hire an assassin of this level to assassinate me..." came to Xia Lei's mind. Looking at Youfeng's face, a cold murderous intention appeared in his eyes.
Xia Lei also plunged into the residential area where the killer was hiding, and the landing point was exactly where the killer landed.
This residential area is an aristocratic residential area with magnificent buildings and tall gates. There are guards standing at many gates, most of them equipped with cold weapons, and some are even equipped with energy weapons.
Xia Lei judged the direction, but just when he was about to awaken his clairvoyant energy to search for the killer, a door opposite him suddenly opened. An old man came out of the door and looked at him expressionlessly.
Xia Lei recognized him at a glance. It was the old man who invited him to the Golden Coast Hotel for a banquet. He didn't know the old man's identity before, but after attending the banquet, he already knew that the old man was the servant of Princess Yongye. But the question is, how could he appear here at this time
The old man said: "Follow me."
Then, the old man turned around and entered the door.
It's this style again. Will he die if he speaks clearly
Xia Lei hesitated for a moment, but still walked over. He was also thinking secretly in his heart, "Could it be that my judgment was wrong? That the killer was not paid by Youfeng, but was from Princess Yongye? If so, her What is the purpose? A deeper temptation? If so, it is really endless. Even if I am the chief of some tribe, it is nothing in her eyes, right? Why should she investigate me so persistently? "
A lot of questions popped up like a fountain.
The courtyard behind the door is planted with exotic flowers and plants, as well as a pavilion for viewing flowers and scenery, and a cleverly designed corridor. The style is quite similar to the style of Suzhou gardens on earth. But even in such a place, there are many styles of the dark world of death, such as flower beds made of skulls, and small succulent plants planted with skulls.
The old man led Xia Lei through the front yard, and then stopped in front of a door.
The door is closed and the scene inside cannot be seen. Xia Lei could see the people and objects in the room with just a quick glance, but he didn't do so. The old man appeared and led him to meet someone, who must be Princess Yongye. Princess Yongye is known as the strongest son of God in the world, and has the same ability as him to steal brain memories with energy. Looking through Princess Yongye's place, the chance of being noticed by her is really too high.
The old man did not knock on the door. He bowed slightly and said in a humble tone: "Your Highness, the old slave has brought this person."
"Let him in, Aweng, you can go down." Princess Yongye's voice came from the door.
"Yes." The old man known as Aweng responded, and then retreated. His steps were cautious and silent, as if he was afraid that the sound of footsteps would disturb his noble master.
Xia Lei raised his hand to push the door open, but he hesitated whether to ask first if it was convenient. After all, there is Princess Yongye's room behind the door. What if she is changing clothes? It wouldn't be nice to rush in.
But just when Xia Lei's mind was thinking wildly, Princess Yongye's voice came out again, "Don't you even have the courage to open the door and come in?"
Xia Lei was surprised again, "Does she also have the ability to see through things? If so, wouldn't her evolution path also involve sucking milk?"
"You even had the courage to kill Youfeng at the Golden Coast Hotel. Why have you become so timid now?" Princess Yongye's voice came from behind the door again.
Xia Lei smiled and said, "Dear Princess, this has nothing to do with courage, it's just a matter of politeness. You are a woman, so I pushed the door open rashly, just in case..."
Princess Yongye snorted coldly, "Huh! What if something happens?"
"Nothing." Xia Lei opened the door and walked in. He originally wanted to say something in case you were changing clothes, but since he still didn't understand Princess Yongye's temperament, he didn't dare to say such a joke.
In the room, Princess Yongye sat at a table. Her face was still covered with the black scarf, making it impossible to see her face. The table next to her was carved from a single piece of white bone. It was as white as jade. It was unknown what kind of dead animal it was carved from. What's even weirder is that the bone table faintly exudes a domineering and majestic atmosphere. It feels like a living emperor, not a table.
"Are you surprised? I was also surprised when I saw it for the first time." Princess Yongye seemed to have seen through Xiang's thoughts. She lightly patted the tabletop of the bone table, "It is carved from dragon bones. "
Xia Lei was shocked. Are there really dragons in this world? However, immortal firebirds exist, so the existence of true dragons is not a strange thing.
"My father killed it before he ascended the throne. It was in no man's land. Your tribe is in no man's land. Have you never seen a dragon?" Princess Yongye asked, facing Xia Lei with her black scarf. It seemed that he was observing Xia Lei's reaction through the mask.
Xia Lei said: "I have heard of the existence of dragons, but I have never seen one."
He was curious in his heart. Princess Yongye didn't say a word at the dinner at the Golden Coast Hotel. Why did she talk to him about dragon stories now
"The Black Sun Empire has a tradition, which is to slay the dragon and ascend to the throne." Princess Yongye said calmly: "My two brothers and I have the opportunity to become the next emperor of the Black Sun Empire, and the condition is to slay the dragon and ascend to the throne. My two brothers My two brothers are currently searching for dragons in no man’s land, and they may meet your tribe.”
Xia Lei said: "Then I will entertain the two princes with fine wine and beautiful women, but... Your Highness, why don't you go find the dragon? If the condition for becoming an emperor is to slay the dragon, you must first find a dragon."
Princess Yongye shook her head slightly, "Dragon and immortal firebird are ancient creatures, the guardians of this world. I will not kill the dragon just to sit in that position. In that case, Fen Yan will not forgive me either." I."
"I admire the conduct of Her Royal Highness the Princess." Xia Lei's words came from the heart. The Black Sun Empire ruled over tens of billions of people. The throne of power was not unattractive, but she was able to give up for such a reason. Putting aside everything else, just such a determination was worthy of admiration.
"How many people do you think say compliments to me every day? And would I be happy?"
Xia Lei smiled and said, "Okay, let me tell you the truth. Someone assassinated me and I chased him here. Just then your slave Aweng came out and asked me to come here. Princess, this can't be a coincidence. Right? You don’t just want to tell me dragon stories, do you?”
"It's a coincidence." Princess Yongye said.
Xia Lei was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect such an answer.
Princess Yongye said: "I know someone assassinated you, but I don't want you to chase him. You caught the killer, you know the truth, and what you want to do will make it difficult for me to do it."
"Princess, do you know who sent the killer?"
"you do not know?"
Xia Lei smiled. This is probably how smart people talk to smart people. They all knew it was You Feng who hired the killer, but they didn't reveal it.
"Isn't he too bullying? He hired a killer to assassinate me. Should I just pretend that nothing happened?" Xia Lei said.
"Bullying you? You almost killed him in the Golden Coast Hotel. You humiliated him like that in front of so many nobles. Compared with what you suffered, he deserves more sympathy. Let's just forget about it, okay? "
"Of course, I will not go against the princess's wishes. Then I'm leaving." Xia Lei bowed slightly in greeting, then turned and left.
"Wait a minute." Princess Yongye's voice came from behind, "Do you think I asked Aweng to call you in to mediate the conflict between you and Youfeng?"
Xia Lei turned around with a confused expression on his face, "Why is that?"
