Chapter 374: Western Regions

Late at night, the Zhao family's mansion gradually calmed down.

The black-clothed assassin is super strong, coming and going without a trace and leaving no trace, obviously an extremely experienced old Jianghu, and there will be no results if he searches further. In order to avoid panic, Zhao Xuemin simply withdrew the disciples and guards of the Zhao family who were searching all over the city, and the army of war pets also withdrew from the city on Hong Yuan's orders.

The Hong army also withdrew, and a new commander was ushered in. While no one was paying attention, Xu Wenbin quietly appeared and secretly joined Hong Yuan in Drifting Snow City. Hong Yuan did not doubt the use of people, and handed over the military power of the Hong family army to the former Night Dragon General. The Hong Family Army was newly founded, and the soldiers came from all over the alliance and were young and vigorous, and they needed a master of the art of war like Xu Wenbin to take charge.

Although he was suddenly frightened, Zhao Xuemin quickly calmed down, calmed people's hearts and set up a banquet for Hong Yuan to wash the dust away, ready to discuss the next move. Tonight's assassin is just a small turmoil, and the expedition of the army is a big thing, and I don't know how many dangers I have to face when I get to the Tenglong Mountain Range. If he is not careful, Hong Yuan and the army of war pets under his command will be wiped out, and no one will come back alive.

Time was too rushed, there were still many places that had not had time to prepare, and Zhao Xuemin was worried about the danger that Hong Yuan would face next. Except for a personal maid, there is only the second elder Piaoxue who accompanied her to pick up the wind and wash the dust for Hong Yuan. The wine and food were served for a while, but Hong Yuan was still missing, Ghost Five, Blood Bat King, Feng Qianbo and Hong Python and others all came, but Hong Yuan was not seen.

"Ghost Five, what about you adults, why haven't you come yet?

Zhao Xuemin asked, among the many powerful retinues under Hong Yuan's command, she was most familiar with Ghost Five. When the latter was still the first deputy commander of the Ghost Gate, the two had a relationship. Thinking of the terrifying black-clothed assassin, Zhao Xuemin was a little uneasy, worried that Hong Yuan had encountered some accidents.

"Probably not, Nightfall and Zhu Wuji follow the adults all the time, nothing will happen. The adults just went out of the city with General Xu, and they should be there after a while. ”

Ghost Wu spoke very cautiously, and was a little restrained in front of Zhao Xuemin.

Zhao Xuemin is young, but as the former commander of the Alliance Flying Dragon Guard, she specializes in spying on the intelligence methods inside and outside the alliance, and the ghost five dare not have any carelessness in front of her.

"With the Grand Commander of the Night Demon by his side, there shouldn't be any danger. ”

Zhao Xuemin was a little relieved, knowing that the Night Demon Grand Commander Night Falling Sky was powerful, and turned his head to look at Zhao Hanxue who was sitting beside him, "By the way, Great Elder, has the identity of that assassin been found out?"

"If you guessed correctly, it is very likely that it is the great devil who has disappeared from the rivers and lakes for twenty or thirty years, Ouyang Xiao, the city lord of Sin City!" Zhao Hanxue's face was solemn.

"Is that him?"

Zhao Xuemin frowned, many years ago, she had heard of Ouyang Xiao's name. Decades ago, it was definitely a big devil who called for wind and rain, and built a huge castle in a chaotic area that the alliance and the Hualong Empire and other forces could not control, and the filth and dirt attracted a large number of outlaws and demons, who did all kinds of evil and dared, leaving behind many horrific things, known as the evil city lord. Later, for some reason, it disappeared overnight, and Sin City was set on fire. Some people rumored that Ouyang Xiao took advantage of this golden plate to wash his hands and hide in the Divine Ghost Continent, while others said that he provoked a supreme powerhouse who could not be provoked, and was killed by someone with a knife.

"In the past, Ouyang Xiao, the lord of the evil city, had two magical powers that shocked the world, one was the sword technique, and the other was the sound attack. Later, when he devoted himself to cultivation in the Sin City, he fused the two exercises into one, and created a terrifying sword technique of its own, known as the Evil Movement, the sword technique is the sound attack, and the sound attack is also the sword technique, becoming a generation of real sword masters! Although the black-clothed assassin was tightly covered, his sword technique was exactly the same as the lore of Ouyang Xiao, the lord of the evil city. Miss, I deliberately flipped through some of the books in the Library Pavilion from decades ago and found some descriptions of Ouyang Xiao. Second Elder Zhao Hanbing paused, and stopped talking.

"How's that?" Zhao Xuemin asked.

"According to the description in the book, the assassin's sword technique is indeed very similar to Ouyang Xiao, the lord of Sin City, but there are obvious differences in height and body size. Back then, we hadn't dealt with Ouyang Xiao, but we had heard that he was a burly man more than two meters tall, and the assassin tonight was obviously much shorter. Zhao Hanbing put forward a different opinion, originally, he also thought that the assassin was Ouyang Xiao, the evil city lord who had been extinct in the rivers and lakes for many years, but later after carefully checking the book, he found something suspicious.

"Well, the Assassin has someone else. Zhao Xuemin breathed a sigh of relief, if the assassin was really Ouyang Xiao, the evil city lord, it would be troublesome, and he would definitely be a terrifying rival. I was frightened back this time, and I don't know when I will make a comeback, and I can't prevent it.

There was a sound of footsteps outside, and then, Hong Yuan's voice followed, "Yes, it is unlikely that it is Ouyang Xiao, the Lord of the Sin City, it is very likely that someone invited the top assassin, or the great master of the Hualong Empire." ”

Hong Yuan pushed the door and walked in as he spoke, belatedly late.

"Hong Yuan, you came just in time! Come, tell me what you think. ”

Zhao Xuemin stood up with a smile, her eyes brightened when she saw Hong Yuan, and then, the smile on her face froze.

Hong Yuan was followed by a person, a hot woman. Tall, half a head taller than the average man, a strong suit on the upper body, and a short leather skirt on the lower body to reveal a pair of long legs, these legs alone may exceed Du Shorty's head. With a high nose and deep eyes, she doesn't look like a person from the Central Plains, she is different in both clothing and appearance, and she is obviously a woman from the Western Regions. followed closely behind Hong Yuan, and after walking in, he even held Hong Yuan's hand in public with an intimate look.

"Everyone, let me introduce, this is Ye Naya from the Western Regions, who led her subordinates to join the Hong Family Army, and is the commander of the Western Regions team under the Hong Family Army. Hong Yuan introduced to the people, holding Ye Naya and sitting down in front of them, and the two of them were close to each other close to each other.

There was silence in the room, and people looked at each other.

The second elder of Piaoxue was stunned, and some of them couldn't react, and the same was true for the ghost five and the others. In people's hearts, it has been determined that Zhao Xuemin is Hong Yuan's lover, and the two are a good match. No one expected that such a hot girl from the Western Regions would suddenly appear.

Zhao Xuemin bit her lip and didn't speak, sat down with a straight face and didn't say a word, the scene was quite embarrassing. Great Elder Zhao Hanxue came back to his senses and beckoned everyone to open the banquet.

The atmosphere gradually eased a little, the maids served tea and poured water, Zhao Xuemin didn't say a word from beginning to end, but Hong Yuan talked and laughed with people, and fed Ye Naya a few sips of wine from time to time to look considerate and intimate, and even let Ye Naya stand up and dance a torch dance in the Western Regions on the spot, taking the lead in cheering loudly. After being full of wine and food, he led the ghost five and others to leave.

Zhao Xuemin didn't see him off, and he didn't even look at Hong Yuan, until Hong Yuan turned to leave, and then he stood on the roof of the Piaoxue Building and stared blankly at his distant back. The two elders glanced at each other and sighed helplessly.

In the dark, Hong Yuan walked forward without looking back, and walked towards the carriage that stopped outside the gate of Zhao's house. Although he didn't look back, he faintly sensed that there was always a pair of eyes staring at him in the dark, and sensed Zhao Xuemin's doubts, grievances and jealousy.

"Zhao Xue, I'm sorry, forget me!"

Hong Yuan murmured in his heart, not that he was ruthless and didn't look back, but that he didn't dare to look back, and he didn't dare to look at Zhao Xuemin, who had given him a piece of true affection. The two are happy, originally, Hong Yuan was ready to take Zhao Xuemin back to see his aunt Liu Ruyan and make his relationship with Zhao Xuemin public. But tonight's battle made Hong Yuan suddenly change his mind and continue to be with Zhao Xuemin, which is likely to harm her!

Ye Rou is already dead, Hong Yuan can't let Zhao Xuemin follow in Ye Rou's footsteps and leave him, never!

Hong Yuan didn't know whether the terrible assassin tonight was Ouyang Xiao, the lord of the evil city, but a terrible thought kept lingering in his mind, and in retrospect, he always felt that the assassin's body shape was very similar to that of the ghost servant. Hong Yuan very much hopes that he is suspicious, that he is wrong, according to common sense, no matter whether the ghost servant has such a terrifying ability, it is impossible for him to do this, there is no reason to make a move against Zhao Xuemin, but what if, if it is really a ghost servant, what does it mean?

Hong Yuan shuddered, didn't dare to continue thinking about it, knowing that tonight would break Zhao Xuemin's heart, he still took Ye Naya, a woman from the Western Regions, in and out together. He was also very uncomfortable, but he had to force his face at the feast.

"Honey, I have to leave you because I love you so much!"

Hong Yuan didn't dare to look back, and took Ye Naya to board the carriage together, Hong Python shook the horsewhip and drove away from the city overnight.

Upstairs in the snow, seeing that Hong Yuan had not looked back from beginning to end, Zhao Xuemin suddenly felt a very painful pain in his heart. Tears kept rolling in his eyes, spinning and turning, and then he couldn't help but flow down. She couldn't hold back a word, but Liu Hong, the maid standing beside her, cried and her eyes red.

Inside the rolling carriage, Hong Yuan's heart became more and more uncomfortable, knowing that this was likely to be the last time he came to Drifting Snow City. After leaving the city, he will never come back in this life.

"My lord, why are your eyes red?" Ye Naya asked.

"Nothing, just the sand blowing into my eyes. ”

Hong Yuan slowly closed his eyes, and Ye Naya wanted to lean in intimately, but he was rudely pushed away.

Ye Naya's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and she didn't understand why Hong Yuan suddenly had such a big contrast. Then, thoughtfully, he vaguely understood something, and curled up obediently beside Hong Yuan like a docile Persian cat.
