"This is someone else's business. We don't need to get involved," the yellow-robed woman said after some thought.
Xue Baochai nodded. "I think so too."
In the distance, Wanyan Zhongjie rolled his eyes and said, "Fine. Since it's a grudge between the Heaven's Sect and someone else, we shouldn't interfere. Let's go."
Hearing this, everyone in the room looked at her in surprise. After all, they had known her for a long time and knew that she was the kind of person who wanted to see the world in chaos.
Dan Yuru was pleasantly surprised. "Thank you all." She didn't expect things to go so smoothly.
Since the leaders of the Song and the Jin had agreed, the group quickly left the town. Dan Yuru called one of her subordinates to lead the way to find her missing companions and thanked them again and again.
On the way to the small temple outside the town, the yellow-robed woman pulled Xue Baochai aside and asked, "Miss Xue, do you have any information about the Heaven's Sect in the Imperial City?"
Xue Baochai frowned. "We don't know much. It seems that the Heaven's Sect was active in the Ming Kingdom a few decades ago. Later, they were suppressed by the Ming court and had to retreat to the Gobi Desert. These years, they have disappeared without a trace. Everyone in Jianghu thought that the Heaven's Sect had perished. I didn't expect them to make a comeback."
Song Qingshu couldn't help but ask, "Retreat to the Gobi Desert? Is the Heaven's Sect related to the Mongols?"
Xue Baochai thought for a while and answered, "There are many different opinions. There have been such rumors, but no one can be sure."
The yellow-robed woman said, "As long as they are not from the Jin Kingdom." Xue Baochai nodded in agreement.
Song QingShu sighed inwardly. Although the Song Kingdom had fought against the Mongols in Sichuan and Xiangyang for many years, they still regarded the Jin Kingdom as their greatest enemy. They could not be blamed for this. After all, they could not tell them that after the Jin Kingdom was destroyed, the Southern Song Kingdom would soon come.
The Song people didn't care, but he couldn't. After all, in his heart, the powerful Mongols were his biggest enemy.
"Master Jia, our prince invites you to play chess." A Jin knight came to invite him. Although everyone knew that Wanyan Zhongjie was disguised as a man, the Jin people still addressed him as prince.
Song Qingshu's heart skipped a beat. He informed Xue Baochai and the others before leaving.
The yellow-robed woman could not help but say, "Does that Jin woman really like him?"
"I don't know." Xue Baochai felt very annoyed.
Not far away, Xue Pan had a look of envy on his face, "That Jin woman is so beautiful, why didn't she fall for me? Baoyu is really lucky with women."
His companions nodded in agreement.
"That's right. That little girl is so beautiful at such a young age. When she grows up, she will definitely be a lady who will bring disaster to the country and bring disaster to the people. If she takes a fancy to me, I will go to the Princess of the Xixia Country."
"Maybe that Xixia princess is even more beautiful than her?"
"That's true. Let's wait until we see the Princess of the Western Xia Country. Then, we can use the [31 Update Fast] power to conquer her!"
"Hahaha, in that case, we can be considered competitors."
…
When Song Qingshu entered Wanyan Zhongjie's carriage, he saw that she was dressed in black. He was startled and asked, "What are you doing?"
Wanyan Zhongjie adjusted his belt as he replied, "Aren't you interested in who the Heaven's Mandate Sect is going to deal with?"
Song Qingshu finally reacted. "No wonder you agreed to leave so easily. It turns out that you are planning to make a surprise attack."
Wanyan Zhongjie giggled. "Otherwise, I won't be able to see a good show."
Song QingShu was also curious about what the Heaven's Mandate Sect was up to, so the two of them hit it off immediately. Soon, they quietly left the group from the other side of the carriage. With his Qinggong, he could do it without making a sound even if he was carrying another person.
The Jin Kingdom would cover for them and would not allow anyone to get close to the carriage. For a short period of time, no one would discover that he had left. As for the Red Dot of the Central Plains who was protecting him in the dark, he also carefully avoided her.
When the two returned to the small town, the inn was empty. It was dark and quiet again. Dan Yuru had obviously left as well. Song Qingshu thought that, judging from the situation just now, the target would most likely come to this inn. After all, the whole town was empty. The target's first reaction would be to choose a place with many rooms like this inn. Just now, they had come here without any hesitation.
Therefore, he quietly sneaked into the inn with Wanyan Zhongjie. Originally, he planned to find a room upstairs to hide, but he suddenly sensed a few faint auras in the inn. They should be the people of the Heaven's Mandate Sect lying in ambush. He was afraid of alerting the enemy, so he didn't go further inside. He looked around the hall and noticed a huge signboard with the name of the inn written on it. It should be the signboard.
Suddenly, his ears twitched. He had heard footsteps approaching. There were quite a few of them. Without hesitation, he grabbed Wanyan Zhongjie's waist and the two of them flew behind the signboard.
The space behind the signboard wasn't very big. In order to not be discovered, the two of them had to stick close to each other. Song Qingshu was afraid that Wanyan Zhongjie would misunderstand, but unexpectedly, she twisted her body and took the initiative to shrink into his embrace. It was as if this position was more comfortable.
"Who is taking advantage of who?" Song Qingshu couldn't help but laugh. However, the girl's soft body and her pleasant fragrance made this narrow space seem less cramped.
"Brother Qingshu, who are you talking about?" Wanyan Zhongjie asked sweetly.
"I don't know." The two of them were very close, and the girl's breath smelled like orchids. Song Qingshu's expression was a bit unnatural. He quickly peeked out from the side and looked at the entrance of the inn, using this opportunity to put some distance between himself and the girl.
Who knew that Wanyan Zhongjie's head would also peek out from under his chin. Song Qingshu didn't know whether to laugh or to be angry. However, since someone had come in, he didn't dare to make any movements lest he startle the other party.
"Great Khan, this town is a bit strange. Be careful, it might be a trap." These people's reactions were exactly the same as Song Qingshu's.
"Great Khan?" Song Qingshu was a bit surprised. Could the person be Temujin? That can't be!
Song Qingshu took a good look at the man who was called the Khan. He was indeed wearing the clothing of a Mongolian nobleman, but he couldn't be Temujin, because his age didn't match. He looked to be in his thirties, while Temujin should be an old man by now.
Although there was no lack of people in this world who could retain their youthful looks, the person in front of him had a valiant aura, but he lacked the domineering aura of Temujin. Furthermore, from the information he had received from Nian Lidan, Temujin's Kung Fu of the Heavenly Demon should be of a high level. Judging from the breathing of the person in front of him, his level of kung fu should be limited.
"If you are not Temujin, how dare you call yourself the Khan? Could it be some country in the Western Region? " Song Qingshu was not very familiar with the situation in the Western Region, so he thought that he had to find some time to read more about it.
"Madam, Princess, do you think we should stay here for the night or continue on our way?" The Khan suddenly said to the other two veiled women.
"Hey, these two women must be great beauties!" Wanyan Zhongjie whispered in Song Qingshu's ear, his lips almost touching Song Qingshu's earlobe.
