For Xia Zhengwen and the old monk to arrive in time, Lu Xuan's contribution was undeniable. If it wasn't for his powerful attack, how could Xia Zhengwen and the old monk detect Sang Yuwen's appearance so quickly?
Although Xia Zhengwen didn't make a move to capture Sang Yuwen, it was already a great achievement to be able to successfully force Sang Yuwen out of Yang An City. If a late stage Origin Realm expert was hiding in Yang An City, who knew what kind of mess would happen.
Hearing Xia Zhengwen's question, Lu Xuan frowned slightly. He really couldn't answer this question. He also wanted to know what his identity was.
"Uncle Xia, Young Master Lu's situation is a little special. I accidentally saved him in the Wounded Unicorn Forest. When he woke up, he had already lost all his memories. He can't remember anything now." Su Ye took the initiative to explain for Lu Xuan.
Xia Zhengwen was slightly surprised, "Lost all his memories?"
With regards to Su Ye's words, Xia Zhengwen was a little skeptical. Afterall, the current situation in the middle state was unstable. Anyone who was suspicious couldn't be taken lightly. Although Lu Xuan made a move and successfully forced Sang Yuwen away, no one could guarantee that Lu Xuan didn't have any other intentions.
Xia Zhengwen didn't try to hide anything and said straightforwardly, "Now is a troubled time for our Nine Dragons Empire. Can this young friend allow me to take your pulse and verify it?"
Lu Xuan was a little hesitant. Xia Zhengwen's strength was already extremely strong, and he was on the same level as Nangong Shuo. Lu Xuan had no chance of defeating him at all. If Lu Xuan were to hand his pulse over to Xia Zhengwen, he would not be able to fight back if Xia Zhengwen had any ill intentions.
Su Ye understood what Lu Xuan was thinking. He advised Lu Xuan in a low voice, "Uncle Xia is the King of South of the Nine Dragons Dynasty. He has made great contributions to the dynasty. He is an upright person and is definitely not a treacherous person. You can rest assured, Young Master Lu. Only by letting Uncle Xia take your pulse will he be rid of his suspicions towards you."
Lu Xuan thought about it and felt that this was indeed the case. Now that he was under the eaves, he had no choice but to lower his head. He magnanimously stretched out his right arm and said, "Zhennan Wang can investigate."
As expected, Xia Zhengwen didn't decline. He raised his right hand slightly, but didn't touch Lu Xuan. Instead, a wisp of yuan qi floated out and transformed into a finger that rested on Lu Xuan's wrist. Xia Zhengwen felt Lu Xuan's pulse and frowned. Lu Xuan's pulse was indeed a little chaotic, and it seemed that his injuries had just recovered. If his guess wasn't wrong, his meridians had been severely damaged not long ago. Since that was the case, it seemed that Xia Zhengwen wasn't lying.
"Little friend, what you said is indeed true." Xia Zhengwen retracted his elemental energy and said, "Amnesia is the easiest to cure, but it is also the hardest to cure. If you can receive the help of the Hundred Herb Hall, your chances of recovery will be much higher. You're lucky to be saved by Su Ye."
"Uncle Xia, are you able to roughly determine which power Young Master Lu belongs to?" Su Ye couldn't help but ask. Among the people present, Xia Zhengwen was undoubtedly the most knowledgeable.
Xia Zhengwen thought about it, then nodded and said, "If I didn't sense wrongly, this little friend is proficient in the Way of the Sword. However, in the Heavenly Sword Continent, the Way of the Sword is the most prevalent. My Nine Dragons Empire has quite a number of great experts in the Way of the Sword. Just based on this point alone, I can't be certain. However, I can see that this little friend Lu's strength is extraordinary despite his young age. Among the younger generation of the Central Plains, he is considered to be one of the most outstanding. However, I have never heard of him before. I'm afraid that his master is a hidden great expert. There are many crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the Central Plains. There are as many experts as there are hairs on a cow.
I don't have any way to determine this. "Hearing that Xia Zhengwen was also unable to determine his background, Lu Xuan was slightly disappointed. However, he still cupped his hands towards Xia Zhengwen and said," Thank you, Your Highness, for telling me. Lu Xuan can't thank you enough. "
Although Xia Zhengwen didn't say where Lu Xuan came from, he had undoubtedly eliminated some of the options for Lu Xuan. At the very least, it proved that he wasn't from one of the major fourth grade powers in the Central Plains. After all, Xia Zhengwen was the Nine Dragons Empire's Southern Guardian King. He had many sources of information.
Xia Zhengwen nodded. After dispelling his suspicions towards Lu Xuan, he turned to look at Su Ye and said, "Su Ye, from what you've said, you seem to know some inside information about Bei Bo Ruo's actions. I hope you can tell me the truth. It will be a blessing for my Nine Dragons Empire and your Hundred Herb Hall."
"Uncle Xia is too serious. Su Ye originally wanted to ask for Uncle Xia's help." Su Ye bowed and explained everything she knew to Xia Zhengwen in detail. The more Xia Zhengwen heard, the more shocked he became. The Hundred Herb Hall was indeed a force with great strategic significance to the Nine Dragon Empire. He didn't think that Beibo Ruo would actually target the Hundred Herb Hall. Furthermore, she would make such a big move, practically using the entire sect's power to deal with this matter.
"The Hundred Herb Hall has been passed down for a thousand years and has always been on good terms with my Nine Dragons Empire. This time, the Nine Dragons Empire definitely won't watch with folded arms. Moreover, Bei Bo Ruo's actions are so unreasonable. He really doesn't put my Nine Dragons Empire in his eyes. How can I sit back and watch them succeed? I will report this matter to my brother. Su Ye, you can rest assured. Brother Su's birthday banquet definitely won't be affected, "Xia Zhengwen said solemnly.
Seeing that the Nine Dragons Empire was really willing to help, Su Ye was naturally incomparably happy. Because of the leak of information and the Nine Dragons Empire's help, Bei Bo Ruo's plan was most likely half-ruined.
"Reporting to Your Highness, the Hundred Herb Hall's Branch Hall Master, Lei Qi, requests to see Your Highness and Miss Su." A city guard came to report.
Xia Zhengwen coldly snorted and said, "How can a traitor have the face to see me? Take him away. After this matter is over, I will deal with him together! "
Su Ye was ultimately soft-hearted. Hearing that Lei Qi wanted to see her, she couldn't help but plead for leniency, "Why don't you see Uncle Lei? He was also forced to do this. I believe that in his heart, he still doesn't want to do this."
Xia Zhengwen waved his hand and said, "Fine. Let him come and see. I want to see what he has to say. If he didn't secretly hide the Sang Yuwen, how could the Sang Yuwen be hidden until today? Hmph, a person who can't distinguish the severity of a matter, what qualifications does he have to be the Branch Hall Master of the Hundred Herb Hall? "
Very quickly, Lei Qi was escorted over by two sturdy city guards. His entire body was tied up with specially made ropes, making it impossible for him to move.
Seeing Lei Qi's appearance, Su Ye couldn't bear to cry out, "Uncle Lei, if you knew this would happen, why did you do it in the first place?"
Lei Qi looked at Su Ye with regret and said, "Niece, I am deeply confused. Now that I think about it, I am simply a big bastard. The Hall Master treated me like this, but I actually tried to rebel. I really deserve to die a thousand times. Fortunately, niece, you are safe and sound. Otherwise, even a thousand deaths wouldn't be enough to atone for my sins."
Xia Zhengwen coldly snorted and said, "It's just that your family was held hostage. As a man, how can you be restrained by such a small matter? To achieve great things, one doesn't care about trifles. Thinking back to the time when the Nine Dragons Dynasty's founding ancestor's family was persecuted and died, but he never gave up. That was how he created the Nine Dragons Dynasty's prosperity that lasted for thousands of years. What does this little thing of yours count for? "
"Zhennan Wang is right. I, Lei Qi, have just woken up to reality. I am willing to atone for my sins with good deeds. I hope Zhennan Wang can give me another chance?" Lei Qi sincerely said.
"Atone for your sins with good deeds? What can you use to do that? "Xia Zhengwen coldly smiled.
"I have been with Sang Yuwen for more than two months. I have secretly heard a lot of their plans. There are some things that even niece Su Ye doesn't know as clearly as I do. If Zhennan Wang needs it, I can tell you everything!" Lei Qi resolutely said.
Xia Zhengwen couldn't help but be moved when he heard Lei Qi's words. Naturally, the more information, the better. Only by knowing oneself and knowing the enemy could one win a hundred battles. He couldn't help but say, "Tell me."
"This matter is of great importance. Moreover, Beibo Ruo's invasion of the Nine Dragons Dynasty is very thorough. Zhennan Wang, please come closer. I only dare to tell Zhennan Wang about this matter. I don't trust anyone else."
Seeing Lei Qi's seriousness, Xia Zhengwen didn't dare to be negligent. He immediately walked in front of Lei Qi and listened attentively. He wanted to know what big secret Lei Qi knew.
Just when Xia Zhengwen lowered his head, Lei Qi's eyes suddenly flashed with fierceness. Lu Xuan always felt that something was wrong. He had been staring at Lei Qi. When he saw this scene, he couldn't help but loudly remind, "Zhennan Wang, be careful!"
Without waiting for Lu Xuan's reminder, Xia Zhengwen first felt that something was wrong. He felt a powerful aura suddenly burst out from Lei Qi's body. The intuition that he had accumulated through countless battles made him subconsciously retreat and widen the distance between him and Lei Qi.
But even so, he was still scratched on the shoulder by Lei Qi's palm wind. He spat out a mouthful of blood and staggered back.
"You're not Lei Qi!" Xia Zhengwen stared at Lei Qi and shouted angrily. How could Lei Qi have such strength? A palm wind was enough to hurt him?
At this moment, Lei Qi, who was tied up, suddenly laughed out loud. He struggled with his hands and the ropes on his body suddenly broke. He instantly regained his freedom.
"Zhennan Wang has good eyesight. Of course, I'm not Lei Qi. Hahahaha!" At this moment, Lei Qi's face suddenly became blurred, and his voice suddenly changed. Almost in the blink of an eye, Lei Qi in front of them had turned into another person!
Everyone was stunned by this scene, especially the two city guards who escorted Lei Qi. They were responsible for guarding Lei Qi from the beginning. They could guarantee that Lei Qi had never disappeared under their eyes. But now, Lei Qi had turned into another person in front of them. What kind of technique was this? It was countless times better than camouflage. This was blatantly deceiving the eyes of countless people. Even Xia Zhengwen, who was at the peak of the Origin Realm, was deceived.
But Lu Xuan was extremely shocked at this moment. He could clearly feel that the martial artist in front of him, who was pretending to be Lei Qi, exuded an extremely strong aura. It was stronger than anyone he had ever seen. Even Xia Zhengwen couldn't be compared to him.
In an instant, three words appeared in Lu Xuan's mind: Great Void Realm!
