Chapter 238: Betrayal
Anger flashed across Mai Xinglong's face as he glanced at them. "Chen Haiyang! What's the point of saying all this now? If you have the guts, why don't you say it to Sacred Consort Cold Sky's subordinates! You only know how to target your own people. Didn't you hear that Grandmaster Ning rushed over the moment he heard that something had happened to the ninth princess? If it were you, I'm afraid you would have run far away! "
"Mai Xinglong, I know that you have a good relationship with him and have received a lot of pills from him, right? But at this point, there's no need to say good things about him! "
Chen Haiyang sneered.
Suddenly, an expression of ecstasy appeared on his face as he rushed to the fence and shouted, "Wan Hedong! I have news to report! The culprit who killed the thirteenth prince's guards is here! Quickly take him to Sacred Consort Cold Sky and let us go! "
"Chen Haiyang! How dare you! "
Lin Qiang and Mai Xinglong were shocked. They wanted to stop him but it was too late.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, Wan Hedong once again appeared in front of everyone. His face revealed a suspicious expression. "Where is the guy who killed the thirteenth prince's guards? Do you know what will happen to you if you trick me? "
Chen Haiyang pointed at Ning Qi. "It's him! I saw him behead the thirteenth prince's guards with my own eyes! "
"Traitor!"
"Despicable and shameless!"
Lin Qiang and Mai Xinglong were very angry, but the others lowered their heads and did not say a word.
When Chen Haiyang saw this, a mocking smile appeared on his face. "Look at the other brothers, what do they think? They say I'm a traitor, but I think you two are the traitors. Only by handing over Ning Qi will the princess be fine! It was me who saved the princess! "
"Chen Haiyang is right! Only by handing him over will Sacred Consort Cold Sky release the princess! "
"That's right. One should take responsibility for his actions. We can't be the ones to bear the consequences, can we?"
A few people opened their mouths to agree.
Wan Hedong looked at Ning Qi and a shocked expression appeared on his face. He had also heard of that matter. Those who died were all peak Dou Huangs. Some of them were even servants from the Fang clan. This group of people was actually killed by this person?
"This kid doesn't look even twenty years old? How can he be so powerful? "
Thinking back to how he had kicked Ning Qi twice at such a close distance, Wan Hedong felt a lingering fear. At the same time, a look of ecstasy appeared on his face. As long as he handed Ning Qi over to the Saint Concubine, he would have made a great contribution!
Ning Qi swept a glance at Chen Haiyang, then immediately consoled Lin Qiang and Mai Xinglong, saying, "You don't have to worry. I originally intended to bear the consequences of this matter. It was my mistake to implicate you. When I return, I will definitely have a good drink with you."
"Have a drink? Dream on! "
Apart from Lin Qiang and Mai Xinglong, everyone else had a mocking smile on their faces. They looked at Ning Qi as if they were looking at a madman.
"Watch him! I'll go report to the Sacred Concubine right away. As long as he is the culprit, I believe that all of you will be fine. "
Wan Hedong said to Chen Haiyang.
Chen Haiyang nodded. "Go and come back quickly. I'm going to rot if I stay here!"
Wan Hedong turned around and left in a hurry.
He left the Tiger Defense Prison and jogged to the gate of the Imperial Palace.
"Bailiffs from the Tiger Guardian Prison? What are you doing here? "
The imperial guard glanced coldly at Wan Hedong and said in a low voice.
Wan Hedong said fawningly, "I have something to report to the Sacred Concubine."
The guard was obviously surprised. "What did you say? I didn't hear you clearly. "
Wan Hedong said, "I have something to report to the Sacred Concubine. Please help me pass the message."
"Hahaha! A mere bailiff wants to see the Sacred Concubine? You must be crazy! "
The guards laughed loudly, looking at Wan Hedong with eyes full of mockery.
'Let's see if you can still laugh later!'
Wan Hedong cursed in his heart. His expression immediately turned cold. He said coldly, "I know where the culprit who killed the Thirteenth Prince's guard is. If you have the mood to laugh at me, why don't you go and pass the message? Maybe you can get some credit."
Hearing this, everyone immediately shut their mouths and looked at Wan Hedong with serious expressions.
"Is what you said true?"
"Absolutely!"
"Wait here, I'll go pass the message!"
One of the guards turned around and left.
The other guards stared at Wan Hedong, using their Qi to lock onto him. If Wan Hedong showed any intention of running, they would be able to capture him immediately.
Deep inside the imperial palace.
The guard went through layers of reporting and finally saw the Sacred Concubine.
The guard knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head. He said in a low voice, "Subordinate Li Zhengdao greets the Sacred Concubine."
"What is it?"
The Sacred Concubine said coldly.
"A bailiff said he knows where the culprit who killed the Thirteenth Prince's guard is. I don't know if it's true or not, so I don't dare to bring him to see the Sacred Concubine.
Li Zhengdao said in a low voice.
"The culprit?"
Coldness flashed in the Sacred Concubine's eyes.
"Sacred Concubine, could it be that guy Ning Qi?"
Fang Qin and Fang Shu walked out from the shadows and said in a low voice.
"Go take a look. If it's really him, I won't have to go back home to ask for help. As for the dragon you mentioned, quickly investigate it."
The Sacred Concubine said coldly.
"Yes!"
Wan Hedong, who had been waiting outside the palace, glanced inside from time to time. His face showed a trace of anxiety. Why hadn't there been any news yet?
Suddenly, he saw a luxurious motorcade, under the protection of countless guards, slowly driving over.
"It's the Sacred Concubine!"
The guards saw it and hurriedly half-knelt on the ground.
Wan Hedong also knelt down.
The car slowly stopped next to Wan Hedong. A cold voice came from inside, "Where are you from? Where is the person you mentioned?"
Wan Hedong's body trembled. This was the first time he was so close to the Sacred Concubine. He quickly said, "Sacred Concubine, I am Wan Hedong, a bailiff from the Tiger Prison. The person is currently locked in the third room."
"En, if it's really him, I will reward you handsomely."
"Thank you, Sacred Concubine!"
Wan Hedong's face was filled with joy.
Under his lead, the Sacred Concubine arrived at the Tiger Prison. Wan Hedong's superiors heard the news and came over. They all half-knelt on the ground and saluted the Sacred Concubine.
Among them, the person with the highest rank was the prefectural magistrate of the Tiger Prison, Shangguan Feihong, a Seven Star Emperor.
Shangguan Feihong glanced at Wan Hedong and said to the Sacred Concubine, "May I know why the Sacred Concubine is here?"
"I want to see the prisoner in the third room. Lord Shangguan, please lead the way."
The Sacred Concubine said indifferently.
"Yes! This way please, Sacred Concubine. "
