C342 They Were Going to Qi-shen Mountain to Find Li Wushang
Under the twilight, the Qi-Shen Mountain was shrouded in a peaceful sunset.
High mountains, lofty mountains, surrounded by clouds and mist. Dense Spiritual Energy filled the mountain range that fluctuated in waves. It was like a poem or painting, like a paradise on earth …
This place was far away from the secular world and was a rarely seen place for external cultivation within the Holy Star Dynasty.
In the center of the giant mountain, there was a majestic Dao Pillar.
There was a person sitting upright on the Dao Pillar. He looked ordinary, but he was a very pleasant-looking, middle-aged man.
A gentle and refined temperament was emitted from between his brows. A pair of eyes that seemed to be able to see through the world's good and evil quietly stared at the chess game that was placed in front of him.
He was the one in charge of the chess game, while Bai was the one in charge!
Although it was a game for one person, the middle-aged man did not seem bored at all.
The black and white Gemini were in his control.
At this moment, the sound of faint footsteps could be heard.
A faint ripple appeared in the eyes of the middle-aged man. The footsteps grew closer and closer as he walked down the mountain. Step by step, he stepped onto the bluestone staircase, steady and powerful.
After which, a black-clad figure appeared.
This was a tall figure. Although his aura had been restrained, his brows still exuded a heroic and valiant aura.
Man In Black stopped walking and didn't say anything.
A gust of cool mountain wind blew, but there was an indescribable coldness to it.
"Ta!"
The gentle looking man that was sitting on the platform dropped his last chess piece. With the two chess pieces locked in battle, Bai Zi finally won against Hei Zi in a weak situation.
He slowly raised his head and looked at Man In Black. Then, a warm smile appeared on his face.
"It's really going on day after day for every ten years!" It seems that the peaceful days are about to come to an end! "
Imperial Capital City!
For several days straight, the entire city was in turmoil.
The royal family, Prince Nan Manor, Wei Family, and other forces were all rushing to capture Chu Hen.
Who would have thought that in less than a month's time, the Heavenly Rankings' champion, Chu Hen, would become a felon that the entire city pursued. The dazzling halo faded a bit too quickly. The way things were developing and going was completely out of everyone's control.
Night!
The night in Imperial Capital City was still bustling with liveliness and liveliness, as before.
However, compared to normal times, it was much more serious and tense.
"Three days ago, Chu Hen last disappeared by the river."
The river bank, which was bustling with noise and excitement at night, had become deserted. At a glance, all that could be seen was a scattered number of drunkards and partners.
The willow tree on the shore swayed its long slender branches in the wind. In the dark night, it resembled a demon's messy hair.
A tall and graceful figure stood silently under the willow tree by the riverbank. Her eyes were filled with helplessness as she looked at the lake, giving off a kind of faint melancholy.
At that moment, a slightly cold gust of air came from behind her.
Huangfu Qing raised her beautiful eyes and her eyebrows relaxed. She quickly turned around and saw a blurry black figure under a willow tree not far away.
"Chu!" A trace of pleasant surprise appeared on her beautiful face as she walked towards the black figure.
When Huangfu Qing walked up to him, the black shadow raised its head, revealing a slightly pale, handsome face.
"Are you hurt?"
"It's fine!" Chu Hen answered calmly.
"Where have you been hiding these past few days?"
"It's in the water!"
Previously, when Chu Hen escaped here, he went straight into the river.
Other people only thought that he used the city river's underwater passage to escape to the east and south district, but Chu Hen did the opposite and stayed in place. He used the Rune technique's' Water Constraint 'to obtain oxygen and stayed in the water.
Looking at Chu Hen's miserable figure, Huangfu Qing felt a burst of guilt, "I'm sorry!"
"It has nothing to do with you."
"I'll definitely help you find the real culprit."
"I've already guessed who the murderer is!"
"What?"
"Huangfu Liang," Chu Hen's eyes revealed a cold glint. "Aside from him, I really can't think of a second person. That Dark Team member with a silver mask is a witness. I intentionally left him alive, and if you can, you can start from him. "
A member of the Shadow Squad with a silver mask?
"It's him?" Huangfu Qing's expression changed. Unconsciously, she gently gripped her hands and frowned slightly.
Chu Hen saw all the changes in the other person's expression and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, is there a problem?"
"He is the Divine Empress's trusted aide!"
His indifferent tone was filled with helplessness.
The Divine Empress?
Chu Hen's gaze turned colder and colder. "The biggest mastermind was indeed her."
At this point, Chu Hen had pretty much figured it out.
The reason why things developed to this point in just a few days time was not because of the sensation of 'Wei Qingfan's death'. What had caused all of this was the hand that had been secretly adding fuel to the fire.
Huangfu Liang killed Wei Qingfan because he wanted to blame Chu Hen.
But the Divine Empress clearly knew the truth. Not only did she not turn a blind eye to it, she did not stop, and took advantage of this opportunity to eliminate Chu Hen.
"I admire Huangfu Liang more and more. He can actually calculate it to such a degree."
Killing intent surged in Chu Hen's eyes. If it wasn't for that old man Prince Nan on the Great War of Heavenly Ranking forcing him to stop them, Huangfu Liang's life would have long been forfeit from his blade.
"Hmph, your royal family's actions really made me not dare to praise you. "No wonder I, Uncle Zhan, was told since I was young to not participate in politics and power, even if it's like accompanying a tiger."
There was still a hint of irony in Chu Hen's words.
Huangfu Qing bit her lips lightly with her silver teeth. Her eyes seemed as if they were about to drip with water.
Wu Ya scolded her along with those words.
"Chu Hen, tell me honestly, did you sneak a peek at Heavenly Book of Holy Star?"
"Is there any point in saying this now?" Chu Hen retorted coldly, "Now that things have developed to this point, you know even better than me that the Imperial Family cannot tolerate me. Because I have humiliated your Imperial Family in terms of Great War of Heavenly Ranking, the person who took the championship is not a member of your Imperial Family!"
Huangfu Qing's delicate body trembled, her face turning slightly pale.
Indeed, she knew it better than anyone else.
From the moment the Divine Empress suspected Chu Hen of spying on "The Heavenly Book of Holy Star", she had already begun to be wary of Chu Hen.
What was imperial power?
The so-called imperial power was supreme and unparalleled.
Anyone who threatened the imperial power or discovered the secret of the imperial clan was absolutely not allowed to do so. For example, the secret of "Heavenly Book of Holy Star" could only be enjoyed by the royal family. "No outsider is allowed to see, this is the imperial power"
Chu Hen's performance in Great War of Heavenly Ranking shocked the entire audience!
Even though he won the three consecutive championships for the Holy Star Dynasty, he had still crippled one of Huangfu Liang's arms, and indirectly slapped the Imperial Family in the face.
This was something that the royal family couldn't allow to happen.
Because the royal family was supreme, if you dared to challenge the prestige of the royal family, you would have to pay the price.
However, Chu Hen overestimated the royal family's magnanimity.
He thought that he would probably be ostracized in Imperial Capital City in the future, but he didn't think that the Imperial Family would completely eradicate him this way. Even more so, he did not expect that things would happen so quickly.
This was where Chu Hen judged wrongly.
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that to you."
Looking at Huangfu Qing's wronged expression, Chu Hen's tone eased up a bit. He knew that Huangfu Qing had been helping him the whole time. The one who held true power in the royal family was the Divine Empress. As for His Majesty Huangfu Hao and Princess Huangfu Qing, they were merely decorations.
Hearing Chu Hen's apology, Huangfu Qing became even more upset.
She let out a deep breath and spoke in a low voice, "I'll send you out of this place first!"
Chu Hen smiled and didn't say anything.
Then, at this moment, a few figures hurriedly walked past on the distant street.
As he walked, his mouth was still mumbling something.
"Tsk tsk, that's too extreme. Truly too extreme."
"What now?"
"Just now, the palace issued another two royal decrees. One of them said that whoever saw Chu Hen would be killed without mercy."
"What else?"
"And Long Qingyang and Long Xuanshuang are under house arrest. Even those who have good relations with Chu Hen, have their feet restricted. If Chu Hen does not appear, they will always be under house arrest. "
"Damn, the imperial family is too ruthless! No matter what, Chu Hen has done more than that.0
"Stop talking, stop talking, let's hurry back!" For the recent period of time, Imperial Capital City is definitely not at peace. "
Although the voices from those people were soft, Chu Hen could hear them clearly.
Huangfu Qing's face turned pale again. Her eyes trembled as she looked at the cold face, "Chu Hen, you leave first. I will help you get Long Qingyang and Long Xuanshuang out. Believe me!"
Her elegant and refined face was now filled with panic!
She kept comforting Chu Hen.
Chu Hen's face was cold and harsh. The flames of anger could break through this limit at any time.
"Xia Qing." Chu Hen looked at her and said seriously, "I need you to do me a favor."
"En!"
"Send someone to Qi-Shen Mountain to find someone called 'Li Wushang'."
Li Wushang!
He didn't know why, but at this moment, the first person Chu Hen thought of was him, the mysterious man who had a pair of Purple Demonic Pupil like himself.
Chu Hen did not know if Li Wushang could help him overcome the current difficulties.
However, other than him, there was no other way.
"Good!" I'll go right now. " Huangfu Qing nodded.
"You can't go, go to Heavenly Star Martial Mansion immediately and have President Jiang send someone there."
Currently, Long Qingyang and Long Xuanshuang were both under house arrest. If anything were to happen and Huangfu Qing was not in Imperial Capital City, then there would be no help for it.
Therefore, Huangfu Qing had to stay in the Imperial Capital.
Similarly, Chu Hen would not leave alone.
If anything happens to Long Qingyang and Long Xuanshuang, Chu Hen will be guilty for the rest of his life.
