……

"-Lu Xuan!"

Offstage, Zhou Wu rushed up in shock, and quickly took out a pill from his arms and took it down.

The golden light gradually faded, the virtual image of the Holy Emperor behind Zhou Yuan disappeared, and the golden scales that extended out of the corners of his eyes also disappeared like snowflakes.

Then, he slowly fell to the ground.

"Why don't you start with a serious matter, don't you say it's okay, just have a discussion!"

Zhou Wuji's face was anxious, and he stared at Zhou Yuan with hatred in his eyes.

Lu Xuan came to the capital, he didn't tell anyone, not even Zhou Tian didn't know, although it was Lu Xuan's own intention to fight against Zhou Yuan, he was just pushing the boat along the river, even if something happened to him, it didn't matter to him, but after all, this was in his own mansion!

And Lu Xuan is the grandson of the old marshal, he can't even protect Lu Xuan, his prestige in the army will definitely plummet in the future, and without the support of the military, he is a person who has been away from the imperial city for six years, what can he do to fight with his younger brothers with strong background!

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to." Zhou Yuan smacked his lips and spread his hands a little innocently.

In this matter, even if Lu Nantian came in person, he was reasonable, why didn't he say mercy? He doesn't even have his hands at all!

"Don't worry, it should be that the impact is too strong and you faint, and it won't hurt Zhihai." Zhou Yuan squatted down, leaned into Zhou Wuji's ear and said with a smile, "Big brother, you can't do anything if you're in a hurry, why don't you understand."

"The matter of Linxing Street, I advise you not to check it again, the pavilion master behind the Weaving Heaven Pavilion is you, don't think I don't know."

When Zhou Wuji heard this, a panic suddenly flashed in his eyes.

The so-called Zhitian Pavilion is a force he created five years ago, at the beginning, he just wanted to make a small intelligence pavilion, occasionally sell some information in the army or the DPRK to the forces in the rivers and lakes, in order to make some oil and water.

But unexpectedly, his henchmen were all talents, relying on his identity to wantonly expand their power, and their business became bigger and bigger, and they opened strongholds in many places, and the intelligence network also spread to all parts of the Great Zhou, which aroused the fear of many intelligence forces.

After several battles, Zhitian Pavilion completely gained a firm foothold in the rivers and lakes and was promoted to a second-rate sect.

The history of Weaving Heaven Pavilion is very disgraceful, because just because he betrayed the secrets of the army, according to the law, it is enough to be beheaded.

What's more, the business of Zhitian Pavilion is unimaginable, and many officials in the court have bought and sold anonymously, although he was finally found out, but he has never found anyone, because it is not yet time.

It can be said that in his hands, he has many handles, and these handles can allow him to do a lot of things.

However, if Zhou Yuan told him that he was the master of the Weaving Heaven Pavilion, then not only would these tricks fail, but countless people who had done business in the Weaving Heaven Pavilion might retaliate against him out of fear, especially those ministers in the court, it was impossible for them to allow a prince who knew his stain to become the emperor, in that case, they would be the first to die!

"I don't understand what the third brother said about Lin'an Street or Weaving Heaven Pavilion." Zhou Wuji forcibly suppressed the shock and fear in his heart, slowly stood up, and stared at Zhou Yuan calmly, "Since I returned to the Imperial City, all my thoughts are on the government and this banquet."

"It's best if the imperial brother doesn't understand."

Zhou Yuan stretched out his hand to straighten the collar for Zhou Wuji, and staged a trick of brotherly affection in public, and then said loudly with a smile:

"Although I really want to accompany my eldest brother to drink and talk happily, but today's time is really short, and the queen mother is still waiting for me to accompany her to the imperial garden to enjoy the flowers."

"Brother Huang, you and I will talk about it another day!"

After speaking, Zhou Yuan left with a smile.

"Congratulations to His Royal Highness the Third Prince!"

The ministers and generals in the audience bowed and knelt down to send Zhou Yuan off, and everyone had a deep sense of awe on their faces.

Zhou Wuji looked at the scene in front of him, his face was hard to see and speechless, he looked at the red dates that Zhou Yuan threw on the table before leaving, as if he had decided something, and a trace of hideousness suddenly flashed on his face.

too

In the backyard of the sub-mansion, in a cluttered warehouse.

The soldier from the army woke up halfway through and glanced at Xu Mu in horror, Xu Mu sensed the gaze, stretched out his hand to knock him unconscious, and then threw him into the cellar containing the cabbage.

"-Crunch!"

A woman dressed in black opened the door to the warehouse, then walked in and looked around.

"Don't hide, it's me."

"You're back." Xu Mu lay on the beam of the room and looked at Li Zao with a smile on his face, "How is it, have you talked to Zhou Yuan?"

Li Zao shook his head and replied, "No, our position is too far away, I only hear him talking."

"Oh, that's a pity, he's actually quite funny." Xu Mu smacked his lips, remembering what Zhou Yuan had said to him in the Star Picking Sacred Court, and then laughed inexplicably, then looked at Li Zao with a gossipy face and asked, "Then what do you think of him?"

Li Zao frowned: "What?"

"Is he tall or handsome, do you like him?" Xu Mu jumped off the beam and asked excitedly.

When Li Zao heard this, her brows furrowed even deeper, and she didn't answer immediately, and after a while, she said seriously:

"Zhou Yuan is a person with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, red lips and white teeth, delicate facial features, a natural trace of nobility in his gestures, extraordinary conversation, quick thinking, courage and resourcefulness, patriotism for the people, outstanding talent and strength, even in the case of a congenital disadvantage, he still defeated the prince."

"At today's royal birthday banquet, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has completely become his foil."

"So you like him!" Xu Mu said excitedly.

"I don't like it." Li Zao shook his head and said seriously, "I'm pretty sure I don't like him like this."

When Xu Mu heard this, he immediately looked at Li Zao in confusion like a deflated ball, and asked, "Then what do you like?"

Li Zao was stunned when she heard this, what kind of man she liked, in fact, she didn't know it herself.

If she had gone back a few years ago, she might have said that she had some liking for the boy she had pushed down the cliff by her own hands, but now that she thought about it, her friendship with him should have been like that of a brother and sister.

The latter took care of her, her sense of trust and dependence on her, and the guilt of concealing her identity and deception, nothing more.

Li Zao thought for a long time, and her mind flashed one young talent after another she had seen over the years, and those people were all inferior to Zhou Yuan without exception, or even far behind, but she just didn't like them.

Merely......

Li Zao looked at Xu Mu's black clothes, and couldn't help but think of the battle he lost to Zuo Mingqiu when he was in the Sword Pavilion, how the latter learned the Burial Heaven Plum Technique, she still doesn't know.

It's just that after she was defeated, she looked up to Zuo Mingqiu at the bottom of the pit for a long time, and the latter said plainly and arrogantly that since she took a move for Mei Si, she took another move and could go.

She hadn't seen Zuo Mingqiu's face at that time, but she could clearly see the latter's repulsive eyes hidden under his hat.

Few people look at her with such eyes.

So she thinks Zuo Mingqiu is a little good-looking.

"I don't know what kind of person I like." Li Zao's frosty cheeks were inexplicably a little hot, so she quickly drove those strange thoughts out of her mind and said flatly.

Xu Mu stared at Li Zao suspiciously, she always felt that the latter's reaction was not quite right.

Li Zao was stared at a little weakly, so he said with some shame, "No matter what I like, I won't like you like this anyway."

"Joke, you don't think I have a crush on you, do you?" Xu Mu took a few steps back with a frightened expression, and then said with an exaggerated expression, "This girl, don't think too much, I already have someone I like."

"She's a thousand times more beautiful than you, ten thousand times prettier!"

Xu Mu said with a grin, and the face under Nangong Huaitian's veil unconsciously appeared in his mind, and his heart suddenly rippled.

Although Li Zao's appearance can be evaluated by the words Frost Fairy,

Among all the women he had seen, her appearance was also excellent, but compared to Nangong Huaitian, he felt that this plum blossom was overshadowed.

"Oh?" Li Zao was evaluated like this, but he was not angry, but he looked at Xu Mu with a slightly meaningful look in his eyes, and said, "A woman who is 11,000 times better looking than me, in the entire continent, I am afraid that there is only the supreme of the Hundred Clans Alliance, Nangong Huaitian."

"You like Nangong Huaitian, does she like you?"

"Of course she ......" Xu Mu said halfway through, then suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes flashed with vigilance, and then he said with a smile, "People may not know me, how do I know if she likes it or not?"

As if he had seen something, Li Zao laughed softly:

"I really don't know? I don't think you know each other."

Xu Mu's face turned dark:

"Does this have anything to do with you, adults and children don't know much about it!"

Li Zao covered his mouth and turned around with a smile, before this he was not sure of Xu Mu's identity, but now, she felt that she could guess eight or nine without leaving ten!

"Women are terrible." Xu Mu smacked his lips, he and Li Zao are now grasshoppers on the same rope, and they are not so afraid of revealing their identities, but he decided that in the future, it would be better to have less contact with Li Zao.

"What the hell is going to happen to this man?"

Xu Mu lifted the man from the cabbage cellar who had been knocked unconscious by them, who was still unconscious.

Li Zao's eyes narrowed, his face was like frost, and then he took out a dagger from his sleeve and walked straight towards the man.

"You don't have to kill him, it's a human life, after all." Xu Mu frowned slightly, looked at Li Zao and said, although the life of this world is not valuable, he is not the kind of person who is thirsty for killing.

This person hasn't done anything wrong, it's just that he's just lustful, but how can a man be unlustful, and his sin won't lead to death!

Li Zao didn't speak, walked to Xu Mu's side, grabbed the dagger and was about to cut it down.

Xu Mu didn't stop him, but closed his eyes slightly, as if he couldn't bear to see this scene.

"-Spare the wind, spare the life!!

Just before Li Zao's dagger was about to fall, as if sensing the frost and coldness on it, the man who had fainted lying on the ground suddenly woke up, his mouth was stuffed with turnips, his eyes were frightened, and he shouted indistinctly.

"You're not dizzy? Didn't I give you some pointing!" Xu Mu raised his eyebrows and looked at the man with some surprise.

He obviously ordered this person to sleep in the hole, and blocked his veins, which should not be untied.

Li Zao looked at the man, his eyes were cold, he didn't say a word, and he still wanted to drop the dagger in his hand.

But then, the unexpected came again.

"-Crunch!"

There was a bang, and the door to the warehouse opened.

Xu Mu and Li Zao's hearts tightened at the same time, and the man lying on the ground also widened his eyes.

The door was opened by a young man with delicate facial features, wearing a simple robe, but with a noble atmosphere.

Zhou Yuan.

Six eyes facing each other.

Zhou Yuan frowned and entered the door, glanced at the man at the peak of the third stage who was tied up by five flowers on the ground, and then stopped his gaze from Li Zao and Xu Mu for a short time, and then the Adam's apple squirmed slightly.

Can't seem to beat it?

"I'm sorry, I'm in the wrong place."

Zhou Yuan's face remained unchanged, and he took a step back with his backhand, about to close the door and exit.

But at this moment, a shadow with a hat suddenly appeared behind him.

Zhou Yuan's body stiffened, and he was about to say something, but the shadow had already moved.

The speed was so fast that he was dazzled to see it.

"Papa!"

The stormy combo caught Zhou Yuan off guard, and the corners of his eyes revealed a divine light, but before he could bloom, he was shattered by the even more terrifying dark golden thunder dragon emanating from the black hat.

"Boom!"

There was a dull sound in the space, and Zhou Yuan staggered, and the black hat was a man

Taking the opportunity to use the magic weapon spirit rope, he tied Zhou Yuan's arm to his body.

He then shoved it forward, and the latter lost his balance and flew straight into the warehouse door.

In the air, Zhou Yuan still wanted to resist, and in his body, there seemed to be an incomparably terrifying and divine power about to burst out.

But before he could take a ten-thousandth breath, Xu Mu and Li Zao appeared in front of him at the same time.

Xu Mu caught Zhou Yuan and gave him a sturdy bear hug, exerting all the strength of his body.

The latter's bones were crushed and shattered, the internal organs seemed to be squeezed out of the throat, and the veins were squeezed dry, cutting off the ability supply to the root.

And coupled with the terrifying frost that Li ordered earlier, half of Zhou Yuan's body was directly frozen into ice, and the terrifying divine power was suddenly forced to dissipate.

"-Bang!"

The door was closed, and Zhou Yuan fell on Xu Mu's chest, his face was pale, and white sweat broke out on his forehead.

The palm of his right hand, which was not completely frozen, quietly appeared a piece of extremely noble mahogany jade plaque.

Xu Mu noticed, his pupils constricted.

At that time, in the Sword Pavilion, the Seven Princes crushed this thing, summoning a wisp of clone of Emperor Zhou, and with the power of one finger, even the large array between the caves was shattered, and this was in the imperial city, Zhou Yuan pinched this play, who of them could live?

"Don't pinch, I'm Zuo Mingqiu!"

Zuo Mingqiu grabbed Zhou Yuan's frozen right wrist and exclaimed.

This sound really worked, and the audience was silent.

Li Zaomei's eyes flashed and looked at Zuo Mingqiu, she really guessed right.

Xu Mu is face is earthy gray, it's over, Zuo Mingqiu is exposed, and his identity can't be hidden.

Zhou Yuan's struggle paused, and then he burst out with an incomparably terrifying force, staggering Xu Mu's body, and the former forcibly turned his head and shouted at Zuo Mingqiu:

"Of course I won't pinch it, because I guessed it when you used the Thunder Dragon to sneak up on me, you bastard, don't let go of His Highness quickly!"
