Chapter 1248: Something Happened to Lu Wang
Bai Zhi’er learned about this from Xixi, and first settled Xixi down.It was almost dawn, and she couldn’t handle this matter directly now.
So, before leaving, Bai Zhi’er said to Yuan Ruxin:
"I will take Xixi with me first, and return her when the time is right."
Yuan Ruxin, who was still in the dark, remained unaware.
"Ah? Master..."
She wanted to say something, but Bai Zhi’er’s figure had already vanished.
"Sister," Yuan Zhen came running from behind: "Haven’t you found Xixi?"
Yuan Ruxin said somewhat puzzled: "Just now, my master said she has some matters, so she took Xixi first."
Yuan Zhen’s expression darkened: "Did your sister take her away?"
Yuan Ruxin noticed the change in his face: "What’s wrong, brother?"
Yuan Zhen regained his composure, unwilling to explain more, just said gently: "I’m just afraid Xixi’s too young and makes trouble for your sister."
"Moreover in Yan Country, your sister isn’t familiar with the place. Sister, do you know where your sister is staying? Take me to find her, let’s bring Xixi back."
Considering Bai Zhi’er’s instructions, Yuan Ruxin didn’t tell Yuan Zhen the truth.
She knew Bai Zhi’er wasn’t staying at any other inn, but would return to Great Chu during the day.
Therefore, Yuan Ruxin said: "I don’t know where Master lives either."
Thus, Yuan Zhen had to give up.
He looked somewhat unwell, just said he was tired, and then went back to his room.
After returning, Bai Zhi’er lay on her bed, carefully pondering how to handle this matter properly.
Her senior brother Yuan Zhen and the Regent King chose assassination and rebellion because they felt they were at irreconcilable odds with the Emperor.
That’s why they chose to act first.
Considering the Yuan Residence’s disaster was to happen tomorrow, Bai Zhi’er knew the time she had to prevent it was running short.
Seeing it was still early, and the cold wind was blowing outside the window, she turned over and planned to take a light nap.
Before sleeping, Bai Zhi’er thought of Feng Fuce.
"I wonder how Brother Ce’s matters are going, if they’re smooth..."
Meanwhile, in the main city Shenxiandi of the Demon World, Demon Lord Feng Fuce was leading thousands of Demon Soldiers against the elite forces from the Heavenly Realm.
"Your Highness Demon Lord, we’ve maintained peace for years, each minding their own business, but this time, you must give us an explanation."
The leader was a War General from the Heavenly Court, with a high divine office.
Feng Fuce glanced at him, and was completely dismissive of talking to such a small figure personally.
A fierce general beside him spoke on his behalf: "You say someone from Demon World destroyed the Divine Tree of the Heavenly Realm, but we didn’t send anyone to do such a thing."
"That’s slander, so please provide evidence. Don’t think Demon World is easy to bully!"
The War General sneered at his words.
"Star Lord Yuan Qing had anticipated you wouldn’t obediently admit it, never mind, we indeed brought evidence, you can see for yourself!"
Saying this, he took out a mirror from his sleeve, capable of showing the past.
Mist gradually unfolded inside the mirror.
In the midst of heavy snow, an immortal palace stood.
It was evidently the dwelling place of the Heavenly Dao.
And outside the immortal palace, there was a tree blooming extremely lush and dense.
The originally calm image had nothing strange about it.
Until, the figure of Lu Wang appeared.
Feng Fuce’s calm expression subtly shifted, his gaze underwent subtle changes.
The War General looked at him triumphantly, as if waiting to see Feng Fuce’s speechlessness.
All the capable Demon Gods beside Feng Fuce furrowed their brows.
Because they all recognized Lu Wang, one of Feng Fuce’s confidants.
