……

"When is Brother Xian going to leave?" King Charles asked lightly.

Don't hide it from him: "After visiting Sean and Logan tomorrow." ”

King Charles smiled and asked maliciously, "Is that promise still valid?" ”

"Promise?" Of course, this slut has forgotten what he said at the beginning, "What promise?" ”

King Charles felt a little sad, and couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead.

"Oh!" Buchen suddenly remembered, he patted his head and shouted: "Break it off with them?" ”

"yes." King Charles said with a wry smile.

"But the problem is that if you make a break with them now, you're bullying them." Buchen frowned, "Those two are now seriously injured and bedridden, how can I take advantage of the danger?" ”

"You!" King Charles nodded at him with his hand, "What a wonderful excuse to find!" ”

Buchen laughed twice, but his acting skills still couldn't hide from King Charlie.

The banquet ended in a relaxed and happy atmosphere, King Charles summoned his attendants to see off Buchen, but just after he walked out of the courtyard gate, he was stopped by a white-bearded old man, he knew that this old man was called Shangguan Zhige, was King Charles's teacher, and was currently in charge of intelligence work, but he didn't know why, he always felt that this white-bearded old man seemed to have a faint hostility and vigilance towards him.

Buchen stared at Shangguan Zhige, although he didn't know what the old man's idea was, but he was not afraid.

"Oh, Shangguan-sensei, right? What are you looking for from me? Buchen asked politely.

Shangguan Zhige stared at him with squinted old eyes: "You still don't want to stay?" ”

Buchen smiled: "You always came to persuade me to stay?" ”

Shangguan Zhige sighed: "Your skill is pure battle array martial arts, if you leave to assist Charlie, sooner or later you will have great achievements, and the marquis is in charge, and the responsibility is not a problem." ”

Buchen raised his eyebrows, and the marquis was in charge, in terms of responsibility? Sounds enticing! But......

"I'm not here." Buchen shook his head and said.

Shangguan Zhige knew that he couldn't convince him, so he simply chose to give up, and said "Hello for yourself" and passed by him, planning to enter the small courtyard and discuss the military situation with King Charlie.

It's just that at this time, Buchen asked a word, which made Shangguan Lao'er stop his pace.

"I've always been curious, you're always a soldier in the Eastern Continent, right?"

"yes, so what?" Shangguan Zhige didn't look back, but just asked rhetorically in a light tone.

"You can see the external power of the Cyris Empire, right?"

"This ......" Shangguan Zhige opened his mouth, but did not answer. However, although he did not answer, Buchen still guessed the truth of the matter.

"Why didn't you dissuade King Charles from staying in the Eastern Continent, but followed him all the way to the Western Continent?"

Shangguan Zhige's face was pale, and he did not speak.

Buchen continued: "If you stay in the Eastern Continent, with your master and apprentice skills, if there is a change in the Eastern Continent in the future, you may not be able to make a great career, right?" This is better than coming to the Western Continent to be a half-blood monarch who is discriminated against, right? ”

Shangguan Zhige closed his eyes in pain, this incident was the biggest regret in his life. If Charlie stays in the Eastern Continent, the throne of Emperor Seris may be up for grabs.

"He said that he was from the Western Continent, the king of the Kingdom of Andris, and no matter what happened to Seris, it had nothing to do with him, he just wanted to do something for the Western Continent and the people of his country." Shangguan Zhige tried his best to suppress the regret in his heart and replied in a calm tone.

Buchen smiled: "Can you always guess my identity?" ”

Shangguan Zhige said: "You didn't have the surname 'Xiao' a few hundred years ago. ”

He didn't care if Shangguan Zhige could see it, and nodded: "Didn't you always ask me why I refused to stay?" My answer is: I am a native of the Eastern Continent, my name is Tianxia Buchen, and I am a member of the Tianxia family, and no matter what happens in the Western Continent, it has nothing to do with me. I just want to do something for my country when the future catastrophe comes! ”

Shangguan Zhige's eyes widened suddenly, and he turned to look at Buchen, and from Buchen's words, he read the meaning of danger.

It's just that Buchen has already walked away, his steps are not very fast, but because of his height and long legs, his steps are very large, and he soon disappeared into the deep night.

……

A quarter of an hour later, in King Charles's study.

"That's what he said?" King Charles put down the scroll in his hand and asked in a light tone.

Shangguan Zhige nodded: "This kid may have the ambition of restoration." ”

King Charles thought for a while, shook his head, and said: "I know this guy Henry, he is not a person with the ambition of an emperor, what he really wants to do should be to put an end to the catastrophe itself, right?" Just like this time. ”

Shangguan Zhige frowned at the snow-white long eyebrows, he was not convinced by his beloved disciple's words, but he didn't know how to refute it, because he could see that Buchen had neither the appearance of an emperor nor the talent of an emperor. But he didn't know why, he just felt that Buchen was smelling of danger all over his body.

King Charles sighed with a smile, stared at the burning candle flame, and said, "Don't worry, teacher, even if this guy Henry restores the dynasty of the Tianxia family, what's the difference?" With him in charge of the Eastern Continent, we can have less trouble with the Cyris Empire, right? ”

Shangguan Zhige stroked his snow-white beard, and the worry between his eyebrows couldn't be dissolved no matter what: "That's right......

"And with the elves in the Origin Mountains, how will the army of Seris get by?"

"Isn't there still a sea route?"

King Charlie smiled: "Teacher, have you ever been on a sea boat?" ”

Shangguan Zhige shook his head very dryly.

"I haven't been on it either, but I've talked to a lot of maritime merchants, according to them, sailing in the Mediterranean Sea is gambling with your life, the Mediterranean sea beasts are rampant, fish-people are rampant, want to transport troops, and constantly use the sea to transport baggage, this is simply unrealistic."

"Ugh." Shangguan Zhige sighed and didn't say anything more, he knew that he couldn't say anything about his love for his apprentice, and the phrase "blue is better than blue" was the most perfect interpretation in their master and apprentice.

"Teacher, don't think about those things that are too far away, let us deal with the things in front of us first. I heard that the Tasha princess's food convoy has set off from Durent City? ”

……

"Eungong, I've seen you again!" As soon as Old Master Pope saw Buchen, he threw himself down with a handful of snot and tears, knelt on the ground and hugged his thighs and cried.

At this time, just after noon, Buchen and the elf sisters had just eaten lunch, and saw the guard lead a fat man with brown skin, five short figures, and a turban.

Buchen and the elf sisters were also pleasantly surprised to see Pop, and they quickly pulled Pop up.

"I haven't seen you for a while, you guy has gained a lot of weight!" Buchen smiled and looked at Pope and said.

Master Pope wiped away his tears and replied, "Don't mention it, Engong. Ever since you stabbed Prince McGee, Durant City has been under martial law, and no one is allowed to enter or leave, and I have nothing to do all day long, but to eat and sleep in the inn, and sleep and eat......"

"Uh-huh." Buchen listened to Master Pope talk about his pig-like happy life, and nodded, "It's a pity that there is no Sairen Street in Darrant City, and naturally there is no kiln, you are suffocated for a while, right?" ”

"Eungong still understands me!" Mr. Pope said with a lewd smile.

"You!" Buchen shook his head when he heard this, "I definitely won't be able to go to the heavens of the master." ”

"If you don't go up, you can't go up." Unexpectedly, Master Pope didn't care, "It's better to live happily for a lifetime than anything else." ”

Buchen was amused by him: "That's right, you're right!" ”

At this point, Ai Ai asked, "Pop, how did you know we were here?" ”

"Huh this?"

Lord Pope hurriedly explained how he found this place, it turned out that after the Tasha princess went north, the vigilance of Darrent City was lifted, and Lord Pope inquired around, and learned from the mouths of several drunk soldiers that they went north after repelling the pursuit of Prince Taji.

Master Pope wanted to immediately set off to the north to find them, but at this time, the news came that the blood clan was heading south. The timid and mouse-like Lord Pope naturally did not dare to leave the tall and sturdy city of Durent again, and in this way, he lived in the city of Darrant for a while, until the news came from the front line that King Charles and the royal army of Taxia had defeated the blood captives and beheaded 40,000 people, and then hurriedly ran north.

After learning that it was the Assassins who had beheaded the Marquis of Denis Nicklaus, the commander of the Bloodline, he was both excited and adored, and immediately came to Kevin City non-stop.

"I see." Buchen nodded, but now there is an important question to ask:

"Pope, don't you hate me when I killed the prince of your country?"
