Ling Xuan came out of Dali Temple and was about to return to the palace, but suddenly found that a group of city guards were patrolling the streets, brightly dressed and well-armoured.

"What's going on, why are there so many city guards on the streets?"

Ling Xuan walked up to a person who looked like a captain and asked, when he entered Dali Temple just now, there were no city guards patrolling, and it had only been half an hour, and there were so many city guards.

"What ...... are you?"

When the captain-like man saw a twelve-year-old boy, he just wanted to scold, but when he saw the prince's gold medal in Ling Xuan's hand, he swallowed the word "thing" and said respectfully.

"Your Royal Highness King Xuan, we have received an order from Lord Zhao to search for yesterday's assassin. ”

Zhao Fei was confused. ”

Hearing this, Ling Xuan frowned deeply, now that the news of the assassination of the court official has been blocked by the imperial court, it has not yet reached the people, and the people now only know that there was a high-ranking official's mansion on fire last night, and they don't know that the news of the assassination of the official has occurred, just for fear of causing unnecessary panic.

Zhao Fei is doing this now, not to tell all the people in the imperial capital what happened last night.

"Your Highness, rest assured, only our city guards know about the assassins, and we only say that during the fire yesterday, someone took advantage of the fire to steal, and now they are searching for thieves. ”

As soon as the captain saw Ling Xuan's appearance, he knew what Ling Xuan was worried about. When the Commander set out, he warned everyone not to leak the news of the Assassins, and violators would be punished by military law.

"Zhao Fei is not too stupid. ”

Ling Xuan said coldly, now he could only hope that there were no outspoken people in Zhao Fei's city guards who accidentally leaked the news of the assassin.

The captain smiled awkwardly on the side, this is the most favored prince in the dynasty, the respect of the prince, no matter how you say that Commander Zhao is fine, but if he dares to talk and be known, he will definitely not have his own good fruit to eat, Commander Zhao is his boss.

......

"Your Highness, you're back. ”

Cao Huachun and Yu Han stood in front of the gate of the palace and immediately saluted when they saw Ling Xuan coming back. The forbidden army guarding the palace all knew this King Xuan, so Ling Xuan easily entered the palace, and the three of them walked straight towards the Heavenly Star Palace.

"I want to cultivate, don't let anyone disturb me. ”

Ling Xuan instructed the two of them, and then walked into the Heavenly Star Palace, which was safe enough to not worry about being disturbed.

Ling Xuan's mind entered the mysterious palace again, there was not much change in the palace, except for an extra figure, no! It should be said that it was a human soul, a human soul that had been calcined by the heavenly fire, and was screaming in pain.

The human race has three souls, namely the three souls of heaven, earth, and man. When the human race dies, the two souls of heaven and earth immediately turn into the power of the source and return to heaven and earth, only the human soul enters the underworld in order to be reincarnated, only by becoming a true god and the three souls are one, can they transcend life and death, immortal and immortal, and survive forever.

Now Yuzhou Ding is forcibly detaining Su Sheng's soul to this mysterious palace, making him suffer from the calcination of heavenly fire, and ten years later, he will be wiped out by Yuzhou Ding.

At this moment, Su Sheng's hair was scattered and embarrassed, according to Yuzhou Ding, it was Su Sheng's human soul that appeared here, but Ling Xuan found that he, like himself, had also condensed a body by the special power of the mysterious palace.

"Master Su, how is it? Do you still know this king?"

Ling Xuan said softly, he was really afraid that Yuzhou Ding would make Su Sheng delirious, then his plan to make a fortune would be over, and he didn't know when he would encounter such an opportunity to make a windfall again.

"This king, are you Ling Xuan, why are you here?"

Su Sheng's voice was hoarse and said weakly, he had been calcined by the heavenly fire for half an hour, and his consciousness was a little blurred.

"I understand, it was your royal family who hijacked the [Obsidian] people and officials here, what does the royal family want to do? Let my Su family be like the Shen family and help you suppress the family? I tell you, it's just a pipe dream. ”

Su Sheng said sharply, at this moment, his voice was not weak, but full of energy, and even some madness in it.

He was in the study that day to check the account book of his embezzlement of money to protect the canal, although he had already arranged for someone to erase all traces, but he was worried that his subordinates were not reliable and there was something wrong, so he personally reviewed it.

But unexpectedly, he suddenly felt a pain in his neck, and he fainted, and after waking up, he appeared in this mysterious palace and was calcined by this unknown flame.

"Hijacking?"

Ling Xuan raised his eyebrows, and said secretly in his heart, "It seems that this Master Su doesn't know that he is dead. ”

It was just right to take advantage of the fact that Su Sheng didn't know that he was dead to make some fuss and make him obediently hand over the embezzled silver taels, thinking of this, Ling Xuan laughed.

"Suppress the family? Lord Su really thinks too much, this king asked people to bring Lord Su here, just for one thing. ”

"What's the matter? I can't talk about it in Su Mansion, I have to bring this official here, and... He also tortured his official with this unknown flame. ”

Su Sheng gritted his teeth and said, this flame that Ling Xuan didn't know where he got it was even more powerful and weird than the Heavenly Fire of the Heavenly Dao Divine Master, and it could actually penetrate through the body and reach the soul.

The heavenly fire used by Yuzhou Ding is a heavenly fire ignited by greed as firewood and the resentment of all the people, which is naturally not comparable to the ordinary heavenly fire summoned by the Heavenly Dao Divine Master, and it is no wonder that Su Sheng does not know it, and he also thinks that the heavenly fire of Yuzhou Ding is more powerful.

That's because of the greed of making firewood, which comes from Su Sheng's heart, and the resentment of the people comes from the people who are broken because of the persecution of the Su family, both of which are closely related to Su Sheng, and the pain is naturally more unforgettable and goes deep into the bone marrow.

"If this king remembers well, Master Su has been the secretary of the Ministry of Labor for ten years. ”

"It seems that His Highness has investigated the official clearly, and if there is anything, His Highness can say it directly, without beating around the bush. ”

"In the past ten years, the imperial court has allocated tens of millions of taels of silver every year to protect the canal, and I am afraid that most of it has gone to the hands of Lord Su, and he will hand over the silver. ”

"What does Your Highness mean by this? Since taking office, this official has been law-abiding and has never taken a tael of silver from the court. ”

Su Sheng's face was upright, and his words were righteous, as if Ling Xuan had really wronged him.

"The twists and turns of the county guard of Piaoxue County appeared at the court meeting of the Lizheng Palace today, the spring flood is coming, and the Piaoxue River is in danger of bursting. ”

Ling Xuan said slowly, the next moment, his tone was suddenly stern, and the cold light flashed in his eyes, if the Drifting Blood River bursts, his ten-year life will be deducted by Yuzhou Ding, and the people of Drifting Blood County will be homeless, all because of Su Sheng.

"Su Sheng, at this point, your quibbles are meaningless, it's best to explain things clearly, otherwise, I'm afraid you will have to spend your old age here. ”

"Not only that, but you also have to endure the pain of the heavenly fire calcination day and night, which should not be pleasant. ”

Ling Xuan said faintly, his voice was indescribably terrifying.

"Your Highness, this official is still the same sentence, this official has never taken a tael of silver from the imperial court. ”

Su Sheng still bites himself and does not embezzle the money for canal protection.

"Then Lord Su is here to enjoy it, this king will not stay here, so that Lord Su will be annoyed. ”

As he spoke, Ling Xuan's figure disappeared into the palace.

Su Sheng's painful roar came from the palace again, after all, the pain of calcining people's souls is not something that ordinary people can bear, let alone the sister-in-law of a family who has been pampered since childhood.

......

Ling Xuan's consciousness recovered, but he did not leave the Heavenly Star Palace, but pulled out the sword at his waist and performed his sword technique. He comprehended the sword intent six years ago, but six years have passed, and he still has no clue about the sword intent.

He also asked his father, but Ling Yang only said that everything in the world has a fixed number, just go with the flow, and let Ling Xuan not be anxious.

Every day, Ling Xuan could only concentrate on practicing his sword in the Heavenly Star Hall to see if he could be close to the Dao, and then realize the sword intent, but now it seemed that it had no effect.

Ling Xuan, who was practicing his sword, suddenly stopped, the corners of his mouth hooked up an inexplicable smile, he put the sword back in its scabbard, sat down cross-legged, and entered the mysterious palace again.

"What's the matter? Master Su remembered that he had embezzled?"

Ling Xuan looked at Su Sheng who was huddled in the corner of the palace, his body was trembling at the moment.

"Your Highness, I can hand over the silver taels that I embezzled in Xiaxia to you, but can I remove the flames in Xiaxia's body. ”

Su Sheng leaned against the corner of the wall and barely stood up, his voice was weak, if it wasn't quiet enough here, there was no sound at all, Ling Xuan wouldn't have heard his voice at all.

"As long as Lord Su hands over those silver taels, this king will try his best to help you. ”

Ling Xuan gave him an ambiguous answer, however, Ling Xuan was still very satisfied with Su Sheng's attitude, not calling himself [this official], but [below].

"In the lower study there is a dark room in the basement, where all the wealth accumulated in the next few years is located. ”

"Study?"

Hearing this, Ling Xuan frowned, Su Sheng was assassinated in the study, which had been searched by the city guards and the people of Shuntian Mansion, if there was a dark room, I am afraid it had been discovered now.

"It's a busy day today!"

Ling Xuan sighed deeply, but Su Sheng's next sentence gave him hope again.

"That dark room has paid a great price, and I have invited several Heavenly Dao Divine Masters to arrange the concealment formation, except for me, no one knows the entrance and opening method of the dark room. ”

"If His Highness can let it go, all the wealth there will belong to His Highness. ”

Even at this point, Su Sheng hadn't forgotten to bargain with Ling Xuan.

Ling Xuan snorted coldly when he heard this, "Su Sheng, in this palace, in front of this king, you have no room for bargaining, it seems that until now, you have not recognized your identity." ”

"You are now only a prisoner of this king, and life and death are at the heart of this king. ”

Saying that, Ling Xuan was about to turn around and leave, so that this Master Su was calming down.

"Wait, I say!"

Su Sheng's voice came from behind him, Ling Xuan suddenly smiled and returned to Su Sheng's side, as Su Sheng spoke, Ling Xuan became more and more surprised, he didn't expect that dark room to be so hidden.

"This king is very curious about how much wealth Master Su has accumulated over the years. ”

Ling Xuan said lightly, here Ling Xuan is talking about the accumulated wealth, not how much he embezzled, and the wealth also includes the income of various industries under Su Sheng's name, which is definitely much more than the embezzled silver taels.

"About 50 million taels ......"

Su Sheng said weakly, but before he finished speaking, he fainted, and Ling Xuan shouted a few times, but he didn't wake him up.

Helpless, Ling Xuan could only leave the mysterious palace, and could only go to count it by himself when the time came, fifty million taels?
