Chapter 138: Encountering Old Enemies on the Road

Li Zijun and Catherine infiltrated the church of the Illuminati as ordinary people. Li Zijun secretly found a cultist who was familiar with him and asked her about Camilla and Yue'er.

Camila has been recovering from her injuries all this time, and the news came back a few days ago that she will be fully healthy in three months at most.

Hearing the news, Li Zijun felt a little relieved, he had always felt guilty for not healing Camila's internal injuries in time at that time!

When the other party said Yue'er, Li Zijun's heart tugged again. It turned out that after they left the city that day, Yue'er didn't return to the Illuminati Sect, she just asked someone to bring a safe letter to the church, and then disappeared!

"Yue'er will definitely be fine, don't worry too much!" Looking at Li Zijun, who was worried about leaving the church, Catherine couldn't bear to persuade.

"She was a person who had no quarrel with the world, and if it weren't for me, she would still be living a happy life. It will never be as missing as it is today, and life and death are unknown!"

"Don't worry too much, hasn't Yue'er already brought back the news of peace! I think she just found a place to recuperate, and when she hurts, she will definitely come to see you!"

"And I can assure you that she's only hurt physically, and she's still happy inside!" Catherine said as she took Li Zijun's hand and said as a passerby.

"Xiexie, you!" Li Zijun said gratefully as he grabbed Catherine with his backhand.

"Little Qingsheng, what should we do next?" Seeing that Li Zijun was in a better mood, Catherine couldn't help but start teasing him again.

"Big beauty, I'm in a state of confusion right now, it's up to you to decide our next trip!"

They looked at each other and smiled, leaving the confines of the Cult of Light.

Almost at the same time as they disappeared, Yue'er, who had become a childish face, walked out from behind.

"Holy Maiden, since you also know the Marquis Edlaide's heart for you, why don't you come out to meet him?" The person who had just introduced the situation to Li Zijun couldn't help but ask when he saw Yue'er walking out.

"You also know that with my identity, you can't have anything to do with him! And you also see me now, I am aging almost every day, I don't want him to see me like this! Besides, I will soon return to the headquarters to heal, and it is still unknown when I will be back, and since we meet separately, why should we zaijian and make each other sad!?"

"What happens after HQ heals?"

"If I can fully recover, I'll go back to zaijian him, but if, let's freeze each other's memories at this moment!" Yue'er can't allow her goosebumps to appear in front of Li Zijun, if she really can't regain her youth, she has decided to disappear in front of Li Zijun forever.

Looking at Yue'er who turned away, the sectist sighed lightly, his eyes full of love.

Li Zijun and Catherine were about to find an inn to stay in after the church of the Illuminati Cult when suddenly a carriage passed by them.

Because this is a busy city, the carriage is not moving fast, and Li Zijun can vaguely hear the sound of talking in the carriage.

"Cousin, you have finally come to Hor Fakan with thousands of mountains and rivers, I think you should not rush back, let me take you around the city, I promise that there are good things here that you can't see in the Dongyu Empire!"

This carriage didn't attract much attention from Li Zijun, but the words 'Dongyu Empire' in the carriage made him extremely interested, and he immediately got lucky and followed the sound on the carriage.

"Forget it!" the man in the carriage seemed impatient with his cousin, and said just two words.

But these two words shocked Li Zijun, and he finally knew who was the person who plotted against him and let Yue'er run away with serious injuries!

Li Zijun's eyes, which were originally dimmed for disguise, suddenly burst into a fierce light, and he looked coldly at the carriage that passed by. The murderous aura he burst out made Catherine around her unconsciously shiver! The people around him couldn't help but tremble.

"Ed!" Catherine hurriedly reminded in a whisper when she saw Li Zijun's appearance.

Hearing Catherine's voice, Li Zijun thought of his surroundings, hurriedly restrained his murderous aura and sharp eyes, and returned to the appearance of a weak reader.

Fortunately, there are no high-level people around, and few ordinary people will care too much about their unintentional shivers, especially in such a cold winter, they all think that it is a normal thing just now.

"Who is in the carriage?" Catherine asked Li Zijun when she saw that no one was paying attention to them around.

"Ninth Prince Timothy!" Li Zijun said viciously.

"Is that him?!!How did he come to Khauerfakan?"

"For me, for me!" Li Zijun coldly glanced at the carriage that was about to disappear from their sight.

"This Nine Princes have always maintained an inextricable relationship with the necromancer, and Elber was very likely to be his subordinate back then, which explains that the 'Lucifer's Arrow', the supreme magic weapon of the Weishenme necromancer, will appear in Khauerfekan!"

"You said he was the one who shot the 'Lucifer's arrow' at you?"

"He doesn't have the guts yet! At that time, there were many elites of the Dongyu Empire on the battlefield, even if Timothy was just seen by Kate and the others, he might be recognized by them, he didn't dare to take that risk!"

"Since he doesn't want to make a move himself, then he still has to come to Khauerfekan in person? You know, it will take at least a month and a half to go back and forth from here to the Dongyu Empire, and there are too many possibilities for his whereabouts to be exposed during this time, and he can be said to have taken a huge risk by doing so! With his status, he can find someone to send the 'Lucifer's Arrow' here. ”

"You think that because you don't know Timothy as a man, he is fierce and cruel! Often people like him are so suspicious that it is difficult for him to trust the people around him completely. And as far as I know, Lucifer's Arrow isn't just someone who can shoot it, and it seems to have an extremely complicated preparation process before it can be fired. ”

"Timothy is not at ease with putting Lucifer's Arrow in the hands of others, let alone telling anyone else how to launch it. Beyond that, he probably wanted to be able to confirm my death with his own eyes, or at least with his own ears. This Ninth Prince really has good intentions for me!"

"Shall we catch up with them?" Catherine heard Li Zijun say this, and she couldn't help but be murderous.

Timothy was ready to leave, and he would be on his way when he got out of town. Even if we go out of the city to catch up with him at once, we may not be able to catch up with him! Not to mention that with our current status, it will take some time to get out of the city, and Timothy will have disappeared without a trace by then!"

"Let's let him go this time, I have a chance to make him pay for today's actions in the future!" Li Zijun unconsciously thought of Belinda when he said this, and he sighed secretly.

"Although the carriage just now does not look luxurious on the surface, there are marks on both sides of the carriage that are unique to the Monlin royal family, so let's find a place to stay first. Then find out who is acting as Timothy's thugs, and we need to get some interest back from them first!"

Catherine nodded when she heard Li Zijun say this, and they continued to walk forward.

Soon they found a medium-sized hotel that suited their current status, and after checking in, Li Zijun stayed behind to wait for news, while Catherine went out to contact the Night Elves.

Before dinner, Catherine returned to her room at the hotel.

"The person in that carriage is Kevin, the second prince of Monlin, how could he call Timothy 'cousin'?" Li Zijun originally thought that the person in the carriage was a side branch of the royal family of Monlin, but he didn't expect it to be such an important person as Kevin, he looked at Catherine with suspicion on his face and asked.

"I also thought it was a little strange, and I also inquired about it, but because the time was too short, the second prince was usually a prince who was not very noticeable, and so far, no valuable news has come back. ”

"But I stumbled upon another piece of news, and I'm sure you'll be interested!" Catherine said with a smile as she looked at Li Zijun.

"Yale?"

"That's him!" Catherine nodded.

"For some unknown reason, Yale didn't get the news of the death of the third prince Colin before chasing us. When he returned to the city, he received a report from his men about Colin, and he immediately tried to enter the palace to see Heller. But for so many days, he had been turned away by Heller, and now he was sitting in his temporary residence and thinking about it behind closed doors!"

"Did he think about his sins behind closed doors?

"I tried to find the exact location of Yale before I came back, and if Hima didn't lie to you, he should be in that place!

"If I let this beast live one more day, I think it's my own sin!"

"It's just that Queen Athena's sacrifice of Colin makes me a little incomprehensible, and I'm not sure if Jima's statement is really credible at the moment!"

"Although Empress Athena's sacrifice of Colin is cold-blooded, it does play a very big role, and at this moment she and Princess Jima have become the objects of sympathy for the entire Monlin Empire, and this emotion will form a great invisible help to this mother and daughter for a long time to come!"

"In the past few days, several important figures in the Monlin Empire have publicly expressed their help and support for them! Colin's death has made them the biggest beneficiaries of this struggle!" Thinking of the scene where Gibran framed Li Zijun, Catherine said with great indignation.

"That's another reason why I'm in a hurry to get back to Khauer Fakkan! I have to meet with the eldest prince Tiffany as soon as possible and explain it to him. Otherwise, with Empress Athena's modus operandi, Colin's killer would have been nailed to us, and with Tiffany's character, he would have a grudge against us even if he would have cooperated with us. At that time, I'm afraid that the Monlin Empire will really fall into the hands of this woman, Athena!"

"Now that the city of Khauer Fakkan is saying that General Yule's murderer killed Colin at the same time, do you think Tiffany will believe our explanation?

"It also shows the sincerity of our presence here! Tiffany is weak, but he is not an idiot. He knows very well that killing Colin won't do us any good, and I think he'll just think we've killed Colin by mistake, and he shouldn't be too hostile to us!"

And I stood up and explained to him at this time, although it sounded a little unbelievable, but on the other hand, it also showed the truth of the incident! No matter how imbecile, I could not have come up with such an unreliable lie. ”

"And I always felt that Empress Athena's sacrifice of Colin was not as simple as we seem, and maybe there was some royal secret in it that we didn't know. ”

"This can also test the IQ of our partner, if he really sees us as his brother's murderer, we don't need to waste too much energy on him in the future, such a person can't be Queen Athena's opponent. Instead of investing too much money in a doomed business, it's better to stop early to reduce your losses!"

"And when are you going to meet Tiffany?"

"I don't need to make an appointment, I can take the token he handed me and ask for a meeting!

"Is there any news about Elenor and the others?" Li Zijun saw that Catherine avoided talking about Elenor, and he had some ominous premonitions in his heart, but he was afraid of hearing something unpleasant, so he didn't dare to mention it. But at this time, he couldn't hold back any longer, and asked Catherine nervously.

This is obviously also a thing that makes Catherine very embarrassed, and she sighed secretly when she heard Li Zijun ask.

"Because there was chaos in the city at the time, the Night Elves' attention was focused on our direction, and they didn't know exactly what was going on at the south gate. ”

"Afterwards, they inquired in many ways, but they only got an uncertain piece of news. It is claimed that Elenor and his gang encountered Thomas at the South Gate, but the two sides only made slight contact, and Elenor and the others withdrew into the city. Catherine paused slightly when she said this, and glanced at Li Zijun secretly.

"Don't worry, I've already prepared for the worst!" Li Zijun said with a long sigh.

"It is rumored that Elenor suffered an incurable internal injury at that time, and although she fled the south gate under the cover of others, it seems that she is leaving, and she has been..."

"But none of this news has been confirmed, and it is likely that Elennor is still alive!"

"If she was still alive, she would have returned to the Night Elves' secret healing site long ago!" Li Zijun said with a wry smile.

Catherine told Li Zijun about the secret healing point, and when she heard Li Zijun say this, she suddenly didn't know what words to use to ease the sadness in his heart.

"I'm nothing! You told me to be alone for a while, and when it gets darker, we'll go see Tiffany. Li Zijun said with a faint smile at Catherine.

Seeing Li Zijun's smile that was more ugly than crying, Catherine's heart ached!

During this time, in order to save Li Zijun's broken bones, Yue'er left silently after being injured, this time Elennor was at a loss for life and death, coupled with the death of Victoria and Barbara before, the continuous blows made Li Zijun a little overwhelmed!

Catherine originally wanted to persuade Li Zijun a few words, but seeing his pleading eyes, she reluctantly nodded, turned around and walked out of Li Zijun's room.

At the moment when the door was closed, Catherine heard Li Zijun's suppressed crying, and she had the heart to return to the room, but after hesitating for a while, she still silently helped Li Zijun close the door outside the door!

When the two of them met each other, they saw that each other's eyes were red, they looked at each other and smiled, and walked out of the hotel together.

Li Zijun and Catherine went to the side door of the Grand Prince's Mansion and handed over the token that Tiffany had given to Li Zijun.

When the steward of the concierge saw the token in Li Zijun's hand, he didn't dare to slack off, and invited Li Zijun and Catherine to wait in the door, leaving someone to take care of the two, and then he entered the mansion to report the matter to the eldest prince.

It didn't take long for the butler beside the eldest prince to hurriedly greet him, and after he saluted the two, he respectfully led the two into the eldest prince's mansion.

When they arrived in front of Tiffany's study, Tiffany had been waiting here for a while, and although he had personally let the two of them into the study, his face was not good-looking.

"Edlaide, did you kill Redeye, why did you even kill Colin?" Tiffany almost snarled at Li Zijun.

Although Tiffany's performance was very exciting, Li Zijun and Catherine were reassured.

"Colin wasn't killed by us, you may not believe it, Colin died at Gibran's hands!" Li Zijun looked at Tiffany and said calmly.

"What?" Tiffany heard Li Zijun's words, his face changed in an instant, and a sudden realization flashed in his eyes.

"How is this possible? Gibran has always been the only one to see Queen Athena, how could he do such a thing?" Although Tiffany was still looking at Li Zijun with questioning eyes, Li Zijun and Catherine had already understood that Tiffany must have found the answer, and this was just to hide the secret behind this matter.

"Probably to be able to push Jima to the position of Monlin's heir more quickly, at least for now, it seems that Colin's sacrifice is very effective!" Li Zijun appeared here to clear up the misunderstanding with Tiffany, not to explore the other party's privacy. Although Li Zijun had already heard Tiffany's insincerity, he still followed Tiffany's words and did not pretend to be clever enough to expose Tiffany's lie.

"Colin's unexpected death did put a lot of pressure on me, but so far, my father's attitude has not changed, and I should still be the most suitable person in his mind. It was no accident that Tiffany was able to be in this position today! He knew very well that Li Zijun had roughly guessed the formation of the matter, and seeing that Li Zijun had not exposed himself, he couldn't help but cast a grateful look at Li Zijun.

At the same time, however, Tiffany understood that political cooperation was a combination of interests, and he did not forget to emphasize his important position in the Monlin Empire.

"Marquis, you have returned to Hauerfakkan at such great risk, not just to explain to me the death of Colin, if you still need anything, please ask, and I will certainly help you as much as I can. ”

"I already know about Ralph. If you hadn't ordered Gavin to set fire to the mansion, his framing might have been successful. In the unlikely event that General Yule's reputation is discredited, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to be left alone, and I really want to take care of you!"

"Mutual protection is within the scope of our cooperation, and the prince shouldn't care too much!

"Ralph is dead! He and his men were left around the corner of the street like dead dogs, and no one knew who did it!" said Tiffany viciously.

"Dead, Queen Athena has taken action to clean up the aftermath of the eldest princess!" Li Zijun said with a cold smile.

"Marquis is clever!" When Ralph left General Yule's palace, Gibran was seen leading people in that direction. That's what a traitor should do!"

"Lord Wang, does my second prince of your country have anything to do with our ninth prince?" Li Zijun didn't want to waste his precious time on verbal criticism of traitors, so he shifted the topic to the second prince Kevin.

"I don't really know this, Kevin's mother came from humble beginnings and died when he was young! he fell into the water by accident at a very young age, which caused him to be lame, which also made his personality more and more withdrawn. He had some dealings with me a while ago, but over the years, he has become more and more difficult to get along with, and he has gradually become less and less in contact with me!"

"But when you asked, I suddenly remembered one thing, the day you left, Kevin, who had nothing to do with me, suddenly found me and talked to me about brotherhood, and I was very touched at that time. Is there anything about him that deserves your attention?"

"Lord, I don't know if you have heard that on the day we escaped from Khauerfekan, I was attacked by the 'Lucifer's Arrow'?"

"I was worried about your safety, but seeing you standing in front of me safe and sound, I forgot about it!

"Count my fate, someone blocked that arrow for me at that time, otherwise, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to meet the prince again!"

"The Marquis suddenly mentioned this matter, does this matter have anything to do with Kevin?"

"I don't have any evidence in my hands yet, but I suspect that the second prince is only afraid that he can't completely get rid of this matter!"

"This is actually a good proof, you just have to ask him about his whereabouts today to be sure. If he goes out of town in a carriage today, then you have to be careful, there must be some other purpose to the conversation he had with you that day!" Li Zijun got up and prepared to leave.
