Qiu Hui brought Ming Xi into the city. She originally wanted to bring Ming Xi to the mansion, but Ming Xi wanted to walk on the street, so she could only accompany him.
"Why is there no one on the street?" Ming Xi looked at the empty streets. "Even the teahouses and restaurants are closed. Have the commoners here all disappeared?"
"En, this place is no longer called Da 'an Prefecture." Chou Hen walked slowly on the streets. Although he was no longer the Chou Hen from before, he still had his memories. "This is Poison City."
Ming Xi glanced at him, "Since it's Poison City, you still dare to enter?"
Chou Hen chuckled, "Those poisons are useless against me."
"You're amazing." Ming Xi exclaimed, "Since there's no one here, then this place isn't fun at all. I'd better leave."
"Don't you want to see what those Poison Men look like?" Qiu Hen asked with a smile.
Murong Ke's heart tightened. He did not want Ming Xi to get too close to Chou Hen, but now he had no chance to bring him away. Chou Hen seemed to be very interested in Ming Xi, but to see the Poison Men … Those people had already lost their humanity, what if they hurt Ming Xi?
"Mingxi is just a child, those Poison Men will scare him." Murong Ke said in a low voice.
"Why are you so timid?" Qiu Hen raised an eyebrow as he looked at Ming Xi. He was very satisfied with Ming Xi, and so he wanted to tell him everything related to the Xuantian Continent in order to attract his interest.
"Yeah, I'm just a kid." Ming Xi was not affected by Chou Hong's goading. He was interested in the Poison Man, but that did not mean that he would seek his own death.
He did not know if Yan Xiaoliu and Xu Jinbei had gone to find his father. Fortunately, Qiu Hui did not kill them.
Qiu Hen was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Ming Xi and laughed heartily, "Don't worry, with me around, even if those poison people act up, they won't be able to hurt you."
"I heard that they became Poison Men after eating the Fishy Poison Pill?" Ming Xi asked innocently.
"Yes." Qiu Hen nodded, "In this world, besides me, no one else can make a pill like the Fishy Poison Pill."
Medicinal pills? This was the first time Ming Xi had heard of such a name. "What does the Fishy Poison Pill look like?"
Qiu Hen glanced at him. "That's not something to be curious about."
Murong Ke listened to their conversation. He just wanted to find a chance to take Ming Xi away and let him stay by Qiu Hen's side. No matter how he looked at it, it was a very dangerous thing to do.
"There's nothing to see on this street. It's not as good as outside the city." Murong Ke looked down at Ming Xi, hoping that Ming Xi would ask to leave.
"No way, I haven't seen what a Poison Man is." Ming Xi remembered Tang Zhen's appearance when he was poisoned. If the people of Daan Prefecture were all poisoned, how could his father's troops resist?
Chou Hen looked at Ming Xi with a smile that was not a smile, "Follow me."
Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he saw a carriage coming from afar, and Lu Lingzhi alighted from it.
Murong Ke could not recognize the person in front of him. He did not know that Lu Lingzhi had changed his appearance and looked very different from before.
"Lu Lingzhi?" Qiu Hen narrowed his eyes and sized him up. Very quickly, he recognized that this person was Lu Lingzhi from before. The reason why there were so many Poison Men in the world was all because of Lu Lingzhi.
"Sovereign." Lu Lingzhi had already recognized Qiu Hen when he spoke. He never thought that Qiu Hen would be so young. Moreover, he looked so handsome and elegant. It was completely different from what he had imagined.
"What are you doing here?" Qiu Hen asked lightly.
Lu Lingzhi glanced at Ming Xi, "I heard that you are back in the city, so I came to welcome you."
Qiu Hen smiled faintly, "You are quite well-informed."
"We haven't seen you for a few days. We were very worried." Lu Lingzhi said. His heart was filled with thoughts. He did not know why Qiu Hen would bring Mo Mingxi with him. Could it be that he had captured him?
Murong Ke stared coldly at Lu Lingzhi. The last time he saw him, he did not know that Lu Lingzhi had become like this.
"This child is?" Lu Lingzhi pretended not to know Ming Xi. He wanted to know if Qiu Hen knew the identity of this child.
Qiu Hen said lightly, "This is the disciple I am going to accept."
No matter how calm Lu Lingzhi was, he was shocked when he heard this. Disciple? Qiu Hen wanted to accept Lu Yaoyao's son as a disciple?
"This is, where did you find him?" Lu Lingzhi asked in surprise.
Qiu Hen said, "This has nothing to do with you. Mo Rongzhan is already outside the city. Since I am back, let's prepare to take over the Jin Country."
"I have already given the order to fight tomorrow." Lu Lingzhi was still in shock. He felt that Qiu Hen definitely did not know the true identity of Mo Mingxi.
Murong Ke looked coldly at Lu Lingzhi.
Qiu Hen did not notice the change in Murong Ke and Ming Xi's expressions. He suddenly stared closely at Lu Lingzhi. Was it an illusion? Why did Lu Lingzhi have the aura of the spiritual spring?
"Spiritual spring?" Qiu Hen approached Lu Lingzhi. When did he have the aura of spiritual spring and spiritual medicine?
Based on Qiu Hen's ability, he naturally could not see the spiritual spring. Thus, he could not confirm when Lu Lingzhi had consumed the spiritual spring and spiritual medicine.
"Sovereign, what did you say?" Lu Lingzhi did not understand what Qiu Hen meant.
"Return to the mansion." Qiu Hen said.
"Sovereign, what about this child?" Lu Lingzhi pointed at Ming Xi.
Qiu Hen glanced at Ming Xi and ordered Murong Ke, "Take him back to the mansion before nightfall."
"Yes." Murong Ke responded, but looked at Lu Lingzhi warily, afraid that he would reveal Ming Xi's true identity.
Lu Lingzhi did not move. He hesitated. Should he tell Qiu Hen that Mo Mingxi was a prince of the Jin Country? If he did, this child would definitely be taken back to the mansion. Perhaps he would even be thrown into the crowd of poisonous people to perish. He could not kill Mo Rongzhan with his own hands, but at least he could let him taste the feeling of losing his son …
He really wanted to see Mo Rongzhan in pain.
However, this child was also Lu Yaoyao's son …
Lu Lingzhi hesitated.
In the end, he … could not bear to.
"Master?" Luo Cheng held Lu Lingzhi's hand. He also recognized Ming Xi's identity, but since the master did not speak, he naturally did not dare to speak.
"Go back." Lu Lingzhi lowered his eyes. If Yaoyao lost her son, she would definitely be in pain.
Lu Lingzhi thought of the moment when he forced the poisonous wine down Ye Zhen's throat, the disbelief and pain on her face. He owed her … just like that.
"Master …" Luo Cheng did not expect that Lu Lingzhi did not intend to expose Mo Mingxi's identity. Leaving Mo Mingxi to Murong Ke was equivalent to sending the hostage away.
"Let's go." Lu Lingzhi said lightly.
Qiu Hen strode in front, as if he wanted to go to the mansion as soon as possible, wanting to know if there was anything he wanted there.
Seeing him leave, Ming Xi actually wanted to follow.
"Come back!" Murong Ke grabbed his hand. "Didn't you want to go shopping? I'll accompany you. "
