Xuanyuan Qingfeng didn't retort, but poured the entire tray of bait into the lake with a cold expression. The koi fish splashed into the water, creating a clamor.
Hsu Fengnian waited for the lake to calm down before saying helplessly, "When will you change this bad temper of yours? When Wen Hua and I first met you, although we couldn't control our mouths and flirted with you and were in the wrong first, how many noble ladies would be so calculative as you? Now that you've become the head of the Huishan clan and want to unify the jianghu, with your terrible temperament, even if you become a top-notch expert in martial arts, you're destined to be alone. Of all the people I could nurture, why did I have to nurture you? You're destined to draw water with a bamboo basket, wasting not only money but also energy. It's true that we wouldn't have known each other if we hadn't fought, but when we sit down to do business, we have to pay attention to the rules of doing business. "
Xuanyuan Qingfeng stared at Hsu Fengnian, his eyes cold. "Hsu Fengnian, it's not your turn to lecture me!"
Hsu Fengnian, who hadn't rested much since arriving at the prince's estate, leaned against the pillar again and said softly, "I treat you as half a friend, that's why I'm nagging you with these unflattering words. It's up to you whether you want to listen or not. "
Xuanyuan Qingfeng sneered. "Can't you be frank with me?"
Hsu Fengnian gently clapped his hands and smiled. "Alright then. Since you have a favor to ask of me this time, I'll be frank with you. I have a friend who's fighting Han Diaosi in the Western Regions. It's been a while now, and the prince's estate has sent a few loyalists over to help, but they haven't been very effective. Now that your cultivation has skyrocketed, why don't you go and warm up? Just treat it as a dangerous martial arts practice. Oh right, Xuanyuan Qingfeng, do you have a man you like? If not, that's good. That friend of mine is the number one beauty in the world, Nangong Pushe. The number two beauty, Chen Yu, is rated as' not inferior to Nangong '. That's Nangong. I'm used to calling him White Fox Face, but remember not to call him that. You'll get beaten up. Assassinating the world's premier eunuch, Han Diaosi, can also be considered as a proof of your allegiance to the Beiliang. Only when there is no way out can I rest assured and trust you, the head of the Huishan Clan, who is thousands of miles away. "
Xuanyuan Qingfeng sneered. "This is your Imperial Person Technique? It really can't be said to be perfect. "
Hsu Fengnian shook his head and said, "I'm the same as you. I only know how to control people. We're both newborn calves in the 'officialdom'."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng glanced at the crown prince's snow-white hair and asked with a smile, "Hsu Fengnian, what happened?"
Hsu Fengnian stroked his hair and said calmly, "To put it nicely, I'm at the Pseudo Finger Profound Realm. To put it bluntly, I'm sure you can tell that even if I'm fully recovered, my cultivation base won't even be at the second rank. However, in the blink of an eye, I was able to use Pseudo Heavenly Phenomenon to control swords. Therefore, you don't have to pity me. If you want to pity me, you should at least wait until you've truly entered the Perfected Finger Profound Realm. "
This woman's temper was truly terrible. She couldn't even be bothered to hide her schadenfreude and laughed loudly. "Pseudo Finger Profound Realm and Pseudo Heavenly Phenomenon. It only sounds frightening. Hsu Fengnian, then won't you be at the Vajra Realm for the rest of your life? I really want to take pity on you! "
Hsu Fengnian looked at this smiling face and laughed as well. "Like I said, you look better when you're smiling."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng didn't deliberately hold back his smile and laughed wantonly. "I'm really happy to see you in such a miserable state."
Hsu Fengnian threw the nameplate back to Xuanyuan Qingfeng. "Although we're not familiar with each other, we're not strangers to the point where you need to hand over your nameplate to visit my house. In the future, if you come here again, you don't need to go through the front door. You can even climb over the wall to enter. As long as the good news I want from the Western Regions comes, I guarantee that your Mount Hui won't lack money or people. "
Xuanyuan Qingfeng took the nameplate and placed it on the blue-and-white plate. Suddenly, his smile disappeared and he asked seriously, "Hsu Fengnian, are you saying that a dying man's words are kind?"
Hsu Fengnian laughed and scolded, "Bullshit, Xuanyuan Qingfeng. Can't you say something nice that doesn't sting people?"
Xuanyuan Qingfeng said, "When do you want me to go to the Western Regions to kill Han Diaosi?"
Hsu Fengnian stood up and waved his hand toward the shore. Immediately, a young man with a huge iron bow on his back ran over.
Hsu Fengnian pointed at the young kamikaze, Wu, who he had brought back from Beimang to the prince's mansion. He smiled at Xuanyuan Qingfeng. "This child's nickname is' Yi '. He'll take you out of Beiliang. There will be people from the Western Regions to meet you."
The robust young man said softly, "Young master, next time when you introduce me, can you not say 'Yi'? My name is Wu."
Hsu Fengnian slapped him on the head. "You little idiot. Didn't you always say that you want to be the most outstanding kamikaze? Don't you think it's embarrassing to tell everyone your name and identity?"
The young man was stunned. He scratched his head and grinned. "That's true."
Hsu Fengnian smiled. "Go. Take this aunt to the Western Regions."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng silently took a deep breath.
The young man agreed and turned to leave. From time to time, he would steal a few glances at the woman beside him. Aunt? How old would he be? Almost thirty? Could it be that she took good care of herself?
Hsu Fengnian said behind Xuanyuan Qingfeng, "I'll make arrangements for Hong Yuang's whereabouts."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng turned around and smiled. "You're such a good nephew."
Hsu Fengnian laughed it off. What a woman who refused to be taken advantage of.
After laughing, Hsu Fengnian walked to the courtyard where his second sister, Xu Weixiong, was staying. The smell of medicine filled the air. He sat down at the head of the bed. She was still unconscious.
For the past few days, Hsu Fengnian had been staying in the room. Other than washing up carelessly and changing into clean clothes, he hadn't slept much. The color of his clothes had gradually faded, revealing his white hair. He found it troublesome to dye it, so he had Blue Bird wash up and give up.
Hsu Fengnian gently held her hand. The room was silent.
The fire was big and smokeless, and the water was smooth and soundless. People's feelings were so bitter that they were speechless.
