Chapter 885: The Big Boss Is Here

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t expect to see Leng Ziling here.

Fu Su and Yuchi Xiu saw with their own eyes that Leng Ziling was pressed under the huge rock in the secret room, and the stone door of the secret room closed.

Logically speaking, even if Leng Ziling was not crushed to death by the huge rock, he should have starved to death inside.

Su Xiaoxiao thought about it and guessed the key.

It seemed that their previous guess was right—Uncle Han had gone to Broken North Pass not only to find the Snow Domain Hemp, but also to bring back the relics of the previous dynasty’s Emperor Wu.

Uncle Han went to the secret room and found the seriously injured Leng Ziling. He brought him back to the Holy Maiden Temple.

Leng Ziling was tenacious. Although he could not the greatest martial arts expert, he was definitely not easy to tame.

Unless…

? Leng Ziling was willing.

Leng Ziling might not have taken it to heart that Su Xiaoxiao had killed Leng

However, Leng Ziling would definitely not let Leng Zhao’s death go. He wanted to avenge his father, so he was willing to be the Saintess’ executioner.

This way, things would be troublesome.

At that time, Leng Ziling had personally seen Fu Su and Yuchi Xiu take Emperor Wu’s relic away. Did he tell the Saintess this news?

? He didn’t tell her!

He must not have told her!

Leng Ziling had been at the border for many years. He had seen Wei Xu and even fought with him, receiving his praise.

It was impossible for him not to recognize that the person in the portrait was Wei xu.

The Leng family and the Wei family were like fire and water. Leng Zhao was even forced to death bv the Wei familv. Althouzh there was no obvious

evidence, who could not guess?

You killed my father, so I’ll kill your father too— Leng Ziling would not have second thoughts.

From the moment he confirmed that Wei Xu was still alive and was related to the Saintess of the Southern Wilderness, he had planted a plan of revenge in his heart.

Therefore, he would definitely not tell the Saintess of the Southern Wilderness who he was, nor would he let her know that he knew Wei Xu.

Since he was not supposed to not know Wei Xu, he naturally could not know Wei Ting and his trusted secret guards.

He could only tell the Saintess that someone had taken the things away, but he didn’t know who they were.

Not only was the Saintess making use of Leng Ziling, but Leng Ziling was also making use of the Saintess.

If the Saintess asked him to capture Wei Xu alive, Leng Ziling would definitely not do it.

He would kill Wei Xu…

“They’re gone.” Yin Xiaodie whispered.

There was no one else in the library. The two of them walked out from behind the bookshelf.

Thinking of the scene just now and the recent incident in the Holy Maiden Temple, Yin Xiaodie asked, “Is the Saintess looking for the assassins that night?”

“No,” Su Xiaoxiao said firmly.

“How do you know?” Yin Xiaodie asked.

Su Xiaoxiao said without changing her expression, “That person doesn’t look like a sneaky person.”

Yin Xiaodie recalled the man in the portrait and could not help but agree.

The man was righteous and heroic. Compared to an assassin, he was more like a general on the battlefield.

Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Why are the experts of the Holy Maiden Temple so powerful?”

Yin Xiaodie thought of the black-robed expert just now. “Are you referring to those people? They’re different from ordinary experts. They’re all puppets and don’t have their own thoughts. They’re not afraid of death or pain. They’re no different from walking corpses. Just this alone would put them above many experts. In addition, they also use medicine to increase their strength.”

Su Xiaoxiao muttered, “It’s about the same as a sacrificial soldier.”

Yin Xiaodie corrected her, “The sacrificial soldiers are mainly about cultivation techniques. Their cultivation techniques are the opposite of ordinary cultivation techniques. At the cost of overdrafting their lifespan, they will be weak for a few days after the battle, but the sacrificial soldiers don’t have to take medicine every day unless it’s a life-and-death situation.”

Of course, Su Xiaoxiao knew about the situation of the sacrificial soldiers. She continued, “What medicine is that? Can ordinary people take it?”

Yin Xiaodie immediately became serious. “No! That medicine is addictive. You can’t leave it after taking it. Don’t use this method to improve your martial arts!”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “I won’t.”

The little girl was quite kind.

Since it was an addictive medicine, just the ramifications of withdrawal were enough.

Su Xiaoxiao looked at the endless bookshelves. “Ah, we haven’t found it after searching for a long time. It’s getting late. Let’s go back first.”

Yin Xiaodie asked, “Are you sure you don’t want to look anymore? Which book do you want? I can help you find it.”

Seeing that she was so serious, Su Xiaoxiao stood on her tiptoes and retrieved a copy of the Southern Border Calendar. “So it’s here.”

Yin Xiaodie expressed her disappointment. “That’s it? I have it at home. I already said that I would get someone to bring it to you. Take it back and take a look. I’ll get someone to tell Elder Yin.”

Su Xiaoxiao pinched her cheel. “Thank you, young one.”

Yin Xiaodie was so angry that she turned into a pufferfish in a second. What was going on?!

Su Xiaoxiao had to quickly look for Wei Ting and inform them that Leng Ziling wanted to kill Wei Xu.

However, when she arrived at their residence, she realized that Wei Xu was not around. He had gone out to hang out with his grandchildren. “Is Leng Ziling is here?” Wei Ting narrowed his eyes.

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “He joined the Saintess.”

Wei Liulang asked, “Little Seven, you fought with Leng Ziling. How’s his martial arts?”

Wei Ting raised his eyebrows and said, “A little worse than me…”

Wei Liulang said, “Speak human language!”

Wei Ting said seriously, “Among the Leng family, he has the highest martial arts. Dad was right when he praised him back then. His potential is not inferior to yours.”

Wei Liulang frowned. “Why weren’ you compared?”

Wei Ting said shamelessly, “I was the top scholar. Dad didn’t compare me to him!

Everyone in the family thought that Wei Ting would be a civil servant his entire life. Therefore, when Wei Xu said that Leng Ziling’s talent was not inferior to his sons’, he did not include Wei Ting.

Wei Liulang muttered, “Something seems wrong, but I can’t put my finger on it.”

Ghostfear activated his eldest brohisr’s pressure and used his bloodline to suppress his two stinky younger brothers.

Wei Ting said seriously, “Find Dad first.”

Leng Ziling had excellent aptitude, and now he had used the medicine of the Holy Maiden Temple to forcefully enhance his cultivation. Wei Xu was experiencing a weak period and withdrawal period, and his condition was not stable.

They could not let him meet Leng Ziling.

Ghostfear, Wei Liulang, and Wei Ting split up to search.

Su Xiaoxiao and Mei Ji went too.

The assassin stayed behind to protect Wei Qing.

Wei Qing was sitting in a wheelchair. There was a chess game under the big locust tree in the courtyard.

“Come out. ”

He said casually.

The assassin looked around warily.

A man in a black cloak descended from the roof and strolled towards Wei Qing.

“Wei Erlang, long time no see.”

The assassin frowned.

When did the other party appear? He did not notice it.

Wei Qing smiled faintly. “You haven’t appeared for so long. I thought you wouldn’t come.”

The man sat down on the stone stool opposite Wei Qing. “If I don’t come, how can this game go down?”

Wei Qing continued to place his piece. “That’s right. The chess pieces are all in place. We’re just waiting for the person holding the chessboard to control the chessboard.”

The man picked up a black piece with his slender fingers and placed it in the center of the chessboard. “Every one of us is a chess piece, and every one of us is a flag bearer. No one can stay out of this game.”

Wei Qing looked at him with a faint smile. “Even you can’t?”

“I wish?,”

The man was halfway through his sentence when Su Xiaoxiao returned. “Second Brother! I forgot to tell you something!”

She walked through the central room to the backyard and looked at the half-played chess game on the table. She asked, ‘Eh? Who are you playing chess with?”

Wei Qing smiled calmly. “I’m just playing casually. What do you want to tell

Su Xiaoxiao looked up at the leaves that moved without wind and pointed at the empty stone stool opposite Wei Qing. “Was there really no one here just now?”

Why did she feel that someone had been here?

But that shouldn’t be possible.. Whose qinggong was so good that he disappeared in the blink of an eye?
