"Is there something you're hiding from me?" Murong Ke walked out of the inn and looked at Teng Ye's face. In the past, Teng Ye was the most talkative person, but these two days, he rarely spoke and even avoided him.
"Yes!" Teng Ye looked at Murong Ke doubtfully. "What can I hide from you?"
Murong Ke stopped and said thoughtfully, "I also want to know what it is that you can't let me know. If you want to hide it from me, it's best if you can hide it from me forever."
Qian Xue looked at Teng Ye nervously. She was the one who begged him not to tell Murong Ke. She didn't want Murong Ke to take risks for someone who wasn't worth it.
A hint of hesitation flashed in Teng Ye's eyes. He glanced at Murong Ke and said, "Should we leave Western Liang? We can't find anything here. The last time we went to the Priest Hall, we didn't see any Shaman King. No matter what, the war between the Priest Hall and the Jin Nation has nothing to do with us."
"What is it?" Murong Ke's voice was cold.
"The Witch King of Western Liang has captured Lu Yaoyao for more than ten days. Two days ago, Lu Yaoyao was brought into the Wilderness." Teng Ye said and lowered his head, not daring to look at Murong Ke.
Murong Ke's eyes narrowed and his handsome face was covered with a layer of frost. He looked at Teng Ye coldly and said, "Say that again."
"I only found out in the past two days. The Witch King is Qi Jin's daughter, Qi Ruoshui. More than ten years ago, she was brought to the Priest Hall and became the goddaughter of the old Witch King, Cha Luan. A few years ago, Cha Luan passed the position of Witch King to her. Qi Ruoshui captured Huang Fuchen and then went to the capital city to capture Lu Yaoyao." Teng Ye hurriedly explained. He originally wanted to trick Murong Ke out of Western Liang. If he had known, he wouldn't have hidden it from him.
"What's the use of keeping you?" Murong Ke squeezed out these words and looked at Teng Ye sharply. His slightly rising and falling chest showed how angry he was.
Teng Ye said, "I, I'm not afraid of you being impulsive. Don't be angry. I heard that Lu Yaoyao has been brought to Western Liang. If you want to save her, we'll find an opportunity to go to the Priest Hall again."
Qian Xue said anxiously from the side, "Pavilion Master, the Priest Hall's security is tight. Now that the Shaman King has returned, it will definitely be harder to enter. If you are discovered, you will be in danger."
Murong Ke acted as if he did not hear Qian Xue's words as he coldly said to Teng Ye, "Bring all the Grade A and above here."
Qian Luosha's assassins were originally divided into levels. Those above A were top-notch assassins. Although Qian Luosha no longer did the business of killing people, the levels still existed.
"Are you serious?" Teng Ye stared at him in astonishment. It had been so many years since Qian Luosha had gathered all the assassins above A rank. For Lu Yaoyao, he was actually going to mobilize the strongest force of Qian Luosha?
Murong Ke looked at him coldly, "That's right, we must rescue her."
"For her, are you willing to give up your life?" Teng Ye asked in a low voice.
"Yes." Murong Ke nodded without hesitation, not noticing the tears in Qianxue's eyes.
Teng Ye laughed, "Alright, I got it."
Since Lu Yaoyao was Murong Ke's life, he must fulfill his wish no matter what. Even if Lu Yaoyao was already the Empress of Jin Kingdom, he must keep her by Murong Ke's side.
This was the Priest Hall!
Ye Zhen looked up at the magnificent and sacred building in front of her. Before entering the hall, she could already feel the oppression here. Almost every ten steps, there was a guard. Qi Ruoshui was not there, it was Wu Ming who brought them in. When the guards saw Wu Ming, they immediately saluted him respectfully.
Not only were the people of the Priest Hall very respectful to Wu Ming, but when they entered the city, the people who saw their carriages would stop and salute.
It could be seen that the Priest Hall held a high position in the hearts of the people of Xiliang.
"Take them to the guest room first." Wu Ming ordered a maid of the Priest Hall to take Ye Zhen and Jin Shanshan in.
Behind the Priest Hall were several courtyards. The central courtyard looked magnificent and should be where Qi Ruoshui lived. Ye Zhen looked at Wu Ming, "When can I see Mr. Huangfu?"
Wu Ming said lightly, "You can see him when the Witch King allows you to see him."
Ye Zhen frowned and asked, "What about Qi Ruoshui?"
"If the Witch King wants to see you, he will naturally find you." Wu Ming didn't even look at Ye Zhen. He really couldn't stand her face. Liu Chen's disguise technique was getting more and more powerful. It was not easy to turn a beautiful woman into this.
"Liu Chen hasn't come back yet." Ye Zhen touched her wrinkled face. She didn't want to look in the mirror these days. If she looked like this when she grew old, she would not want to see Mo Rongzhan.
Wu Ming glanced at Ye Zhen, "She will come back."
Ye Zhen smiled faintly, "Send us back to our rooms to rest. I hope we can feel at home in the Priest Hall."
"Please." Wu Ming nodded to the maid and asked her to leave with Ye Zhen and the others.
They were arranged to stay in a small, isolated courtyard. The layout of this courtyard was somewhat different from the mansions in Jin Nation. The house here had two floors, and the rooms were located at the top of a wooden staircase. There was only a maid guarding the entire courtyard.
Ye Zhen and Jin Shanshan entered the room and immediately closed the door.
"Niang niang, what should we do?" Jin Shanshan asked Ye Zhen in a low voice.
"I won't know until I see Mr. Huangfu." Ye Zhen opened the window and looked at the courtyard not far away. She didn't know which courtyard Huangfu Chen was in.
Jin Shanshan said, "How can the Witch King of Xiliang be a Jin Kingdom? What does she want to do with you and Mr. Huangfu?"
Ye Zhen looked calmly into the distance. She didn't know how Mo Rongzhan was now. He must be very angry. He didn't know that she was pregnant. If he knew, he would definitely want to kill Qi Ruoshui with his own hands.
"I'm afraid Qi Ruoshui wants to restore the former dynasty." Ye Zhen whispered.
Jin Shanshan was stunned, "You mean she wants to restore the Huangfu Dynasty? Mr. Huangfu …"
"Mr. Huangfu doesn't agree. Otherwise, she wouldn't have brought me here." Ye Zhen sneered, "Qi Ruoshui knows that I am Mr. Huangfu's disciple. My brother asked you to save me."
Jin Shanshan glanced at her. "You are his only sister."
Ye Zhen said, "The person Qi Ruoshui wants is me. You know martial arts. Try to find a chance to leave here."
"I won't leave unless you go with me." Jin Shanshan said.
"Qi Ruoshui will not hurt me. I am still useful to her. If you stay here, she will use your life to threaten me." Ye Rou said in a deep voice. "There is one thing that you can only do if you leave this place."
Jin Shanshan asked doubtfully, "What is it?"
"Not long after we entered the city today, at an inn near the city gate, you have to help me inquire about someone." Ye Zhen whispered. She saw Qianxue and Murong Ke today. Maybe Murong Ke could help her.
"Who?" Jin Shanshan asked.
