Chapter 80: Gnawing on the hard bones
"Who's your wife? We only have the name of husband and wife..."Lin Xuan closed her mouth as she spoke.
"Go on."
Ye Xiong let go of Lin Xuan, turned around and said. "I'm leaving."
"Huh?"
Lin Xuan thought she had misheard.
"Leave? Where are you going? ”
"Go home." Ye Xiong said in a deep voice. "After being away from home for so long, it's time for me to go back."
"Didn't you say you didn't have a home?" Lin Xuan began to panic, and when she heard that Ye Xiong was leaving, her heart felt like she had been cut by a knife. "Didn't you say you'd never leave? You didn't say to...."
In the latter words, Lin Xuan's throat seemed to be stuck, he and Ye Xiong were just husband and wife in name, why should others waste time here?
For so many years, Ye Xiong has never asked for anything, which shows that he is not for money and power, Lin Xuan suddenly felt that he had no reason to keep Ye Xiong.
"Are you really leaving?"
"Yes, the world is so big, I want to see it." Ye Xiong said lightly.
"Okay, let's go, let's go." After Lin Xuan finished speaking, she left the imperial study angrily.
"Hey."
Ye Xiong shook his head, and then ordered someone to find Zhao Gao.
At this time, Zhao Gao was drinking with a beautiful woman in his sleep.
Suddenly.
There was a knock on the door.
"Master, someone has come to the palace."
The housekeeper looked anxious, this point is still urgent, most likely there is an accident.
Zhao Gao, who was interrupted from his dream, opened the door with a sense of getting up. "What the hell is your name?"
"Sir.." The housekeeper blinked his eyes vigorously, the corners of his mouth twitched to the side, Zhao Gao sighed, and looked back, a eunuch was smiling. "Lord Zhao, Your Highness is invited."
"Your Highness looking for me?" Zhao Gao hurriedly changed into official clothes and rushed to the palace.
At this time, Ye Xiong had already returned to the small courtyard, and Tang Fei was sitting on the stone bench, having been waiting for a long time. "Boss, Qingfeng's side..."
"I already know." Ye Xiong said in a deep voice. "Qingfeng should have revealed his identity, otherwise the Black Crow Sect would not have trapped him."
"Then do we need to contact the sect?" Tang Fei was a little worried, the Black Crow Sect had always been ruthless, and now Qingfeng's whereabouts were unknown, if they revealed their identities, the impact on the sect and the Apocalypse would be extremely bad.
"This matter is a personal vendetta and has nothing to do with the Heavenly Sword Sect."
Ye Xiong sat on a stool. "You stay at the apocalypse."
"You're not taking me?"
Tang Fei looked at Ye Xiong in disbelief, Tianhai City is not big or small, but it has developed very rapidly over the years, compared to the peak of the Apocalypse, even if Ye Xiong's cultivation is profound, but the heroes can't stand the wolves.
"I have other plans this time." Ye Xiong explained. "Ah Fei, I always feel that Hu Hai's old boy has other intentions."
"Tianhai City is close to the sea on three sides, and the main trade is exported to the Beihai Continent, and our Tianqi is mainly engaged in land business, and there is no contradiction between the two sides."
Tang Fei said his opinion, but Ye Xiong shook his head. "People who dare to cooperate with the Black Crow Sect are definitely not good at stubble."
"If you want to say that, the national teacher of Haicheng really needs to pay attention to it that day." Tang Fei said thoughtfully. "It is said that Xichanji Temple is one of the backers of Tianhai City."
Xizen Temple?
Ye Xiong said with some disdain. "Just a bunch of old liars."
"Having said that, it is said that there are people in the Xichan Temple who have been promoted to the honorable level over the years." Tang Fei wasn't sure if this matter was true or not, if it was, without the support of the Heavenly Sword Sect, Ye Xiong would be very risky going this time.
"Don't worry, I'm going this time with the identity of the Prime Minister of the Apocalypse." Ye Xiong comforted Tang Fei. "If something really happens, with my ability, can't I leave?"
"But..."Tang Fei was still not at ease, Qingfeng was also a sect-level strength, and he was not trapped there.
At this time, Zhao Gao's voice came from outside the small courtyard.
"Your Highness, I'm here."
"Come in." Ye Xiong motioned to Tang Fei not to speak, and after Zhao Gao came in, he saw that Tang Fei was also there, so he immediately saluted. "Good evening, General."
"Hmm." Tang Fei nodded slightly and stopped talking.
"Zhao Gao." Ye Xiong beckoned him to come over.
"Your Highness, come to me so late, is there something wrong with the negotiation?" Zhao Gao had received a notice before that Wang Zhong had gone to Baichuan City to be the Taishou, and he had been appointed as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites.
Zhao Gao knew that all this was operated by Ye Xiong, so in Zhao Gao's heart, he had long regarded Ye Xiong as Bole.
"You go back and prepare immediately, and we'll leave for Tianhai City immediately." Ye Xiong looked at Zhao Gao with a smile. "When you go back this time, your position as the secretary of the Ministry of Rites will be truly stable."
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your care." Zhao Gao bowed his head respectfully. "Where did you say you were going?"
"Tianhai City." Ye Xiong repeated, and Zhao Gao knelt directly on the ground this time. "Your Highness, will we just go with the two of us? Is the general also going to be together? ”
"The general is not going." Ye Xiong shook his head. "Just the two of us, you're in charge of the negotiations."
"I..."
Zhao Gao was still in the mood of flying in the sky just now, but when he thought about it, it was like falling into the abyss, and he was miserable. "Your Highness, this time it's not a provocation, is it?"
"It's not."
Ye Xiong said lightly. "Why provoke? We are all civilized people, so we are naturally reasonable. ”
"That's good."
Zhao Gao breathed a long sigh of relief, as long as he wasn't looking for trouble, then the problem shouldn't be big, right?
Who knew that Ye Xiong added again. "If we can't talk about it this time, we will directly kill Tianhai City and let Hu Hai know that the apocalypse has changed."
"This!"
Zhao Gao sat on the ground with his buttocks, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
The next day.
The sky is slightly bright.
The envoy group left the apocalypse, and this time the captain of the escort team was Wu Da, Ye Xiong sat in the carriage and did not say a word.
Above the city walls.
Lin Xuan looked at Ye Xiong's carriage. "You foolish, you must come back alive this time."
At this time.
Heavenly Sword Gate.
Yamashita.
Tang Wanyu sat alone on top of a white lotus. "Ten Thousand Laws Gate Tang Wanyu, ask to see the master of the Wuji Gate."
"Senior Sister Tang, there is no news from my junior brother yet, you can come back next time." The voice of infinite majesty came from the mountains.
"Senior Brother Wuji, I'm not a three-year-old anymore." Tang Wanyu's tone was a little dissatisfied. "Someone saw Ye Xiong appear in Nanyu."
"Really?" Wuji pretended to be shocked and said. "Then why don't you go to Nanyu?"
"I'm just here to ask one question." Tang Wanyu said seriously.
"What do you want?" Wuji also couldn't figure out Tang Wanyu's thoughts, and it was very surprising that Tang Wanyu appeared at this time.
"Is Ye Xiong already married?"
After thinking for a few seconds, Tang Wanyu couldn't help but ask.
"Who told you?" Wuji's tone also began to become nervous, Ye Xiong's matter, except for the elders of the sect, no one leaked it.
"Master of the Infinite Gate, I just want an answer." Tang Wanyu asked again.
"Nope." Wuji directly denied it. "Ye Xiong is just traveling outside, and he has not started a family."
