"Because only by standing in the dark can I see what's happening under the sunlight more clearly. I've been like this since I was young, I'm used to it." Shangguan Li said honestly, not concealing anything.

Hua Ruge thought for a moment, then said: "Then, your habit is quite special."

"The things I do are also special. Slowly, I will develop different habits." Shangguan Li said indifferently.

Hua Ruge nodded in understanding, then raised his wine glass and said: "Come, let's drink together."

"My lady is not well, she cannot drink." The maid Lan Er behind him spoke up.

The legs she pointed to.

"No worries, Lan Er, bring me a wine cup." Shangguan Li instructed.

Lan Er stood in place without moving and insisted: "Miss, you cannot drink."

Hua Ruge used his spirit force to scan Shangguan Li's body, and then frowned.

This was because her disability was not an innate or an illness, but because she had been poisoned.

It was because someone had controlled the poison in time that it only crippled his legs and did not injure his life.

Judging from her physical condition, she had been using drugs to control the poison for a long time, so it was indeed impossible for her to touch the alcohol.

Shangguan Li was about to rush the maid when Hua Ruge interrupted him and said, "Pavilion Master, I was presumptuous of you. Please take care of your health and stop drinking wine."

Lan Er's expression softened a little, and he could only sigh: "I spoiled this child."

Her gentleness seemed to emanate from her bones, as if it had a unique charm.

Hua Ruge poured himself a cup of wine and asked: "Previously, the Pavilion Master mentioned that she would give me a satisfactory answer, I wonder what this answer is?"

"I guess part of the reason the Battle King suppressed the Night Pavilion was for revenge, but the other part was because of the ring that the devil sect stole away from me. And now that the devil sect cannot be hidden, the prince wants to get the information about the devil sect from me, right?"

Hua Ruge nodded: "If Night Pavilion were to say which devil sect those three people came from, I guarantee that the grudge between me and Night Pavilion would be written off."

Night Pavilion could not sell information on collaborators. This was a rule made since the start of the competition, if Hua Ruge wanted to break it, he could only use grace and power.

"Night Pavilion has its own rules, but those people have brought me so much trouble, I don't want them to get over it either." Shangguan Li said, "Lord, this matter is a little bigger than what you imagine."

"What do you mean?" Hua Ruge asked curiously.

"Those three people did not come from the same devil sect. Instead, they were three experts from the Three Great Demons." Shangguan Li slowly said.

Hua Ruge's pupils shrank, "What?"

"I also felt incredulous at the time, but that's what I learned." Shangguan Li added.

While Hua Ruge was in a daze, she picked up her chopsticks and began to eat slowly.

Hua Ruge really wanted to ask her if she was messing with him.

But when he thought about it carefully, from the perspective of the Night Pavilion, Shangguan Li would definitely not speak carelessly.

This was a negotiation after all. If she provided the wrong information, by the time she and Tuoba Rui discovered it, the Night Pavilion would not exist anymore.

But Three Great Demons's answer did indeed cause her to be extremely shocked.

Ever since the continent's number one devil sect's Shinto of The Falling Sun had been destroyed a hundred years ago, the other devil sects had lost their leader, and after a hundred years of annexation and development, they had formed a three-legged situation.

Moreover, Three Great Demons was the strongest power amongst the three great forces of the continent, so just taking one would be difficult enough to deal with.

If the three devil gates were to be twisted into a single rope, even if one were to put all their Purple Clouds Holy Land together, it would still not be enough.

However, she knew that the Devil Sect had always developed its own forces and would often cause friction. So why did they suddenly cooperate?

Was the secret hidden in the ring really that powerful?

Seeing Hua Ruge's expression, Shangguan Li asked jokingly: "Lord, can you still eat?"

She had indeed lost her appetite, and her expression gradually eased up. However, the waves in her heart could not calm down.

This result was far beyond her imagination.

She even thought for a moment that she could not take the ring.

Hua Ruge took a deep breath and said, "Even though the answer is a little unexpected, you have finally said it out loud. I will keep my promise, and will no longer look for trouble with Night Pavilion from now on."

"Then I'll thank Lord of The Wah for your help." Shangguan Li said with a light smile on his face.

Looking at her calm demeanor, it was as if everything was under her control.

"Lord, I'm very happy to have a meal with you. I'll use tea in place of wine to pay my respects." Shangguan Li said again.

She sensed that Hua Ruge was about to leave.

Hua Ruge drank the wine in one gulp, then said: "Thank you for the welcome, Pavilion Master. I'll be going back first.

"Lord walk slowly, your legs are not agile, I'm sorry to say I can't send you off." Shangguan Li said.

As Hua Ruge walked out of the house, Shangguan Li had long since retracted his gaze.

"Miss, is what you said true?" Lan Er asked.

Because after hearing this sentence, Hua Ruge's expression clearly changed.

Shangguan Li nodded his head: "Of course it's true, the reason I didn't say it earlier was because I was afraid the devil sect would aim their spearhead at us."

"Then even if we say that the devil sect will do us harm now, they will still do us harm." Lan Er said again.

Shangguan Li squinted his eyes: "As of now, Tuoba Rui has mobilized a lot of troops, so the devil sect does not have the time to deal with me."

"As expected of the young mistress. She is good at everything." Lan Er said with a face full of worship.

Shangguan Li laughed, and did not speak.

"But Miss, we have revealed information about the devil sect. It seems that we have broken the rules." Lan Er said again.

"If the rules are broken, then we'll set it up again. The idiots from Three Great Demons have implicated their Night Pavilion to such a state. How can I let them go?"

Even when Shangguan Li said these things, his expression was still calm.

Lan Er clapped loudly. "That's so satisfying."

As Hua Ruge sat in the horse carriage, he was preoccupied with many matters along the way. Even the polite smile on his face disappeared, and what replaced it was a serious expression.

exactly what does Three Great Demons want to do?

This was not only related to the Dragon Mark Ring and its secrets, it was also related to the safety of the entire continent.

She had to tell Tuoba Rui sooner so that they could discuss the plan.1

The horse carriage stopped in front of the house. Hua Ruge got off the carriage and saw another horse carriage stop in front of the house. It was black, and a little familiar.

When she remembered, her pupils dilated.

Jun Tianxia's carriage.

What was he doing here?

She immediately walked to the guard in front of the door and asked, "Has the Monarch of the Da Yu come?"

"Yes, Princess." The guard replied respectfully.

"Looking for me?" Hua Ruge asked again.

The guard shook his head. "When the eunuch reported this, he said that the Emperor had come to look for the Prince. Right now, they are discussing some matters in the study."

Hua Ruge raised his eyebrows in doubt. What could the two possibly say?
