Chapter 196: Emperor’s Mind

Chapter 196 Emperor’s Mind

It was in the Imperial Study of the Imperial Palace in Dahan Country.

An old man with grey hair was lying on a soft bed for a rest. He wore the imperial robe and crown. Although he looked old and clumsy, he was majestic like a real dragon.

He was Dongfang Xiao, the emperor of Dahan Country, the leader of the Dongfang Family.

In a short time, Eunuch Feng hunched his body and walked in. He whispered beside Dongfang Xiao, “Your Majesty, Eighth Lord wanted to see you.”

Dongfang Xiao’s wrinkled eyelids twitched and he said angrily, “Why did he come again? I had made an exception and let that hoyden be a member of Dongfang Family!”

Eunuch Feng waved his hand helplessly and said, “Your Majesty, that girl is not the daughter of Lord Rui. Eighth Lord was cheated. Zhu Yan and Su Zipei were in the prison of the Supreme Judiciary.”

Dongfang Xiao opened his eyes little wider and sat up under the support of Eunuch Feng. He said, “In that case, let him in.”

Then, Dongfang Rui came in and gave a salute. He said, “Brother.”

People all thought that he got along well with his third brother. In fact, he wasn’t close to the third brother at all. They even didn’t have any friendship. In order to show his strength, the third brother deliberately spread the information that they got along well with each other.

However, because of this rumor, Dongfang Rui could easily get the permission of Dongfang Xiao that Su Zipei could be a member of the Dongfang Family. But the member now became Su Li. Therefore, the matter became complicated.

“Third brother, you really never cone to me for nothing. I heard the matter of the Su Family. Su Zipei cheated you. So, she should be punished severely by the Supreme Judiciary! As for the quota of the Dongfang family tree, it is invalid!”

After Dongfang Xiao finished his words, Dongfang Rui lowered his head and said, “Brother, I didn’t come for the matter of the family tree. I will get to the point. You knew the murderer who killed Yun that year, right?”

What?

Dongfang Xiao was in surprise and he said with a low voice, “Dongfang Rui, what are you talking about now, you know?”

“I know!”

Dongfang Rui stared at Dongfang Xiao and said with confidence, “Brother! If you still care about the brotherhood, tell me who is the murderer!”

“How dare you!” Dongfang Xiao was furious. He stood up and scolded, “The Eldest Brother is the same as the father! Our parents passed away. How can you talk to me in this way?”

“Flop!”

Dongfang Rui knelt on the ground and said nothing.

Dongfang Xiao was moved and he pointed at Dongfang Rui for a while. But he didn’t scold him for anything.

“Let it go. If you are so crude and impetuous again, I will not forgive you…”

After half an hour, seeing Dongfang Rui left with anger, Eunuch Feng came in with his body bent. When he saw Dongfang Xiao frown and repose with his eyes closed, he couldn’t help but say apprehensively, “Your Majesty, after you told him, I am afraid that Yunjing City will be in a mess.”

Dongfang Xiao lay on the bed again and scolded with a smile, “You old lackey! Do you think that I told him about the murderer after he said some heartfelt words?”

Eunuch Feng’s expression changed slightly and said, “Then…”

“The Wu Family is more arrogant than before these years.” Dongfang Xiao said slowly with his eyes closed. But his words were full of intention of killing. He said, “Eighth Brother can weaken the power of the Wu Family. What’s more…”

Dongfang Xiao sneered and continued, “My sons are all stupid. Do they really think that they will win as long as they cooperate with the ninth-grade sect? As the sons of the Dongfang Family, they don’t think about how to fight the foreign enemies and deal with the problems of our country but invite a wolf into the house. They are all imbeciles!”

Eunuch Feng quickly lowered his head. At this moment, all he could do was to listen to the emperor. To be in the king’s company was tantamount to living with a tiger. If he misspoke something, he would be punished seriously.

“There was no difference between the Dongfang Family and the Hehuan Sect before. We all weak and might be destroyed in the martial arts circle if we had a little impatience. After our Dongfang Family worked hard for generations, we became the master of the country. Our status is higher than the eighth-grade sect! However, Sheng and others cooperate with the Hehuan Sect with compromise. They are so short-sighted.”

Then, Dongfang Xiao suddenly opened his eyes and said, “They will fight with each other. So what? Since Eight Brother are willing to take actions, I can suppress Sheng and others without extra efforts. Let them know what is truly powerful!”

Eunuch Feng was scared to cold sweat. Although the emperor’s answer was simple, he had many intentions. It was difficult to guess at the emperor’s mind.

When he thought of Lord Rui who left angrily, he sighed inside.

The members in the emperor’s family were ruthless. It was true for any dynasty.

…

Su Li stayed in the Affiliated School of the National Academy recently and didn’t get out for a long time.

She wanted to go to the Linli Building, but there were lots of guards of the Lord Rui’s Mansion around her. Wu Bin reached the inborn sixth hurdle which was only one hurdle less than that she had reached. It was difficult for her to deal with. If she disappeared suddenly, she would be discovered.

Fortunately, Wu Bin went back to stay beside Dongfang Rui soon. The Royal Guards with cultivation inferior to her couldn’t stop her.

In the midnight, Su Li wore black clothes for disguise and left the Affiliated School to the Linli Building. However, she met Fang Yuan halfway. They took a glance at each other and Fang Yuan immediately turned back.

Since Su Li came back, he didn’t have to venture to the Affiliated School.

When they arrived at the Linli Building, Yin Xuetong opened the back door with caution. When she saw Fang Yuan and Su Li, she breathed a sigh of relief. She patted her chest and said, “You scared me. Why do you come here so fast?”

“We met halfway.”

After Fang Yuan explained, he followed Su Li and went to the room. The three persons went to the underground adytum.

“Where is Qu Qingning?” Su Li looked around the underground adytum and didn’t see Qu Qingning’s funny face. She was not used to it.

“Su Li, I am going to tell you.” Yin Xuetong said happily, “Qu Qingning went out the city to break through the inborn realm!”

Su Li slightly raised her eyebrows. He actually had the opportunity to break through the inborn realm?

“Thanks to the next winery.”

Recalling the rumors spreading in the city and the words that Qu Qingning asked her to convey, Yin Xuetong and Fang Yuan’s feelings were mixed. They all doubted the origin of Su Li. But until now they had known that Su Li was the princess of Dahan Country.

Seeing the profound meanings flashed in Yin Xuetong and Fang Yuan’s eyes, Su Li raised her eyebrows and said with a smile, “Well, do you think that the position of princess is worth giving up everything I had now and obediently accept Dongfang Rui?”

“Su Li.” Yin Xuetong was moved and she said, “If it is just because of us, it is absolutely unnecessary…”

“Not because of you.”

Su Li interrupted Yin Xuetong and said casually, “Being a member of the royal family is not my purpose. You just keep the agreement among us. Don’t worry about other things.”

Su Li’s words were heartless, but Fang Yuan and Yin Xuetong were not stupid. They knew that the reason why Su Li disassociated them from her was that she wanted to ease their burden.

“Alas…”

Yin Xuetong sighed and really did not mention the previous things. She said, “Besides practice, Qu Qingning eavesdropped the conversation of the couple of the next winery in the underground adytum every day. He really heard something shocking. With this opportunity, he told me hurriedly and went out the city to break through the inborn realm.”

“He was lucky. What did he hear?”

Su Li shook her head with a smile. It was difficult for people to break through the inborn realm before 20 years old because they had too simple experiences. Qu Qingning was lucky to have the opportunity to break through the inborn realm.

Yin Xuetong felt weird and said, “Su Li, it seems that the couple of the inborn realm next door is…your elders.”

What?

Su Li was stunned and Yin Xuetong continued, “Qu Qingning heard that they had always wanted to see you, but they didn’t have any opportunities. It seems that the proprietress is the sister of a person called “little Yun”. If I remember correctly, your biological mother was called…Su Yun?”

Fang Yuan also felt wired. Yin Xuetong was unwilling to say a few days ago. In this case, were Xuan Jingzhou and his wife Su Li’s uncle and aunt?

They tried hard to draw them over to their side. It was really unnecessary.

Su Li was in silence. She couldn’t help but recall the life in the previous life. Unfortunately, she had few memories about the proprietress. She even forgot how she died.

“Su Li, why don’t we go to the next door to sound them out?”

Fang Yuan suddenly proposed. Su Li rubbed her glabella and waved her hands. She stepped forward and said, “Don’t wake a sleeping wolf. It is unwise to force to go in. We should observe them for a few days. You and I will go to see Qu Lu together tomorrow…”

Su Li finished her words coldly. Yin Xuetong praised her with worship in her eyes, “This matter is clearly related to her relatives, but she was so calm and still made the most accurate judgment. How outstanding she is!”

Seeing Yin Xuetong’s eyes were full of worship, Fang Yuan shook his head and left.

Was she calm?

However, in his opinion, Su Li was more scared. Just as the saying went, “The closer they got, the more scared they were”. Her relatives only lived in the next house, but she didn’t have the courage to see them…

At this moment, in the deepest part of the adytum, Su Li closed the stone door and took a deep breath. She sat down against the stone wall and was lost in thought.

Was the proprietress her aunt…

Xuan Jingzhou and the proprietress had been in Yunjing for many years. Were they in Yunjing that night her mother ran away?

She wanted to ask them, but as Fang Yuan thought, she was afraid that the news that Qu Qingning heard was wrong.

“I will make a plan after I meet Qu Lu tomorrow.”

Clearing away the distracting thoughts, Su Li was clearheaded. She had many things to do including revenging herself on her mother’s murderer and realizing Ling Li’s wish. She couldn’t finish them with her words.

After lighting up the stone lamp, she saw eight topless coffins. The killers she killed in the hunting ground were lying in the coffins.

At this moment, Su Li took a deep breath and a hint of death gray emerged in her eyes quickly.

Then, the eight corpses suddenly shook and sat up with light in their eyes!

That was the green flash of corpse puppets!

Eight corpse puppets of the inborn realm were the achievements that Su Li refined since the autumn hunting!
