With a few 'pu pu' sounds, Longyi had already poked the sweet * * of the three women who were sleeping soundly.
"Longyi, what are you doing?" Wu Shuang looked at Longyi's sunken handsome face in amazement. Just a moment ago, she had already felt that he was somewhat strange, but now, it seemed that there was something wrong with him.
Longyi turned his head and put the middle finger of his right hand to his mouth, making a 'keep quiet' gesture. Then, he softly sighed and suddenly grabbed the right hand of Simon Wuhen who was sleeping in the middle. Without seeing him make any movement, a drop of bright red blood overflowed from Simon Wuhen's middle finger.
Longyi carefully collected this drop of blood, then turned around and left the tent.
When Wu Shuang followed him out, she discovered that Longyi had laid out an opaque barrier outside. She didn't know what he was doing inside.
"What the hell happened?" Wu Shuang muttered. This was the first time she saw Longyi like this, so she was endlessly worried in her heart.
And at this moment, inside the barrier laid out by Longyi, Longyi was blankly staring at the liquid inside the two porcelain cups in his hands. One of the cups had a crimson liquid and the other one had a deep blue liquid.
"It's true, Wuhen really isn't my biological sister." Longyi softly sighed. He was somewhat disappointed in his heart, but what he felt was deep anger.
This was a gargantuan lie. In fact, even his father Ximen Nu didn't know that Simon Wuhen wasn't his biological daughter, but rather someone else's child. Longyi couldn't tolerate this. If his own woman was pregnant with someone else's child, what kind of sullen feeling would that be? But that female Sword God said that his grandfather was also a participant. What the hell was going on? That grandfather who had been missing for many years had become muddle-headed. He actually colluded with others to make his own son a cuckold. This really made Longyi want to curse out loud.
Longyi's emotions boiled for a moment before he slowly calmed down. In any case, this was already a fact. Simon Wuhen was innocent. No matter what, she could not be implicated.
He thought about it. Longyi sorted out his emotions and decided to hide the truth for now. At this moment, the Ximen Clan was already at the cusp of the struggle, and the situation of Blue Waves Continent was at a critical juncture. If this matter was leaked out, there would only be disadvantages and no benefits.
After removing the barrier, Longyi walked out with a smile on his face.
"Longyi …" Seeing Longyi come out, Wu Shuang called out and took two steps forward.
"I'm fine." Long Yi patted Wu Shuang's shoulder and said sternly, "Shuang 'er, I don't want anyone to know about what happened just now. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Wu Shuang nodded faintly, even though she still had her suspicions. But since Long Yi didn't want other people to know, then all she could do was to act as if nothing had happened.
"Thank you for understanding." Longyi kissed Wu Shuang's pink lips.
… …
Dragon Empire's Soaring Dragon City, Ximen Residence appeared golden under the illumination of the sunlight. The residence was majestic. Several guards on both sides of the vermilion gate wore bright helmets and armor. They were brimming with killing intent. With one glance, one could tell that they were veterans who had survived on the bloody battlefield.
Ximen Nu was still sitting upright in front of his spacious desk. He was looking at the intelligence reports with a gloomy expression. There were intelligence reports from inside Soaring Dragon City and there were also intelligence reports from various cities of Blue Waves Continent.
At this time, Dongfang Wan knocked on the door and walked in with a cup of tea. She gently placed it on the table of Ximen Huo. After that, she stood behind him and used a small fan to gently fan Ximen Nu.
Ximen Nu didn't even raise his head. He was still looking at the intelligence reports. He used a pen to mark out the important points. He looked a lot older. The white hair on his forehead seemed to have suddenly grown. However, the imposing aura between his eyebrows seemed to have become even more profound.
After a long time, Ximen Nu stood up and stretched his body. Then, he looked at his wife with a smile.
"My husband, drink this cup of herbal tea. I don't know what happened to the weather recently. It is not even summer yet, but it is already so hot. "Dongfang Wan picked up the tea on the table and handed it over to Ximen Nu.
"There must be a reason for the abnormality. Blue Waves Continent is going to turn upside down this year." Ximen Nu took the teacup and drank it in one gulp. This herbal tea had gone through more than ten processes of Dongfang Wan. Moreover, it was frozen. After drinking it, the heat in his body completely disappeared.
Dongfang Wan wisely smiled but didn't say anything. As the eldest daughter of Dongfang Clan, her political sensitivity and overall situation view couldn't be compared with ordinary people. If she wasn't willing to be a virtuous wife and loving mother in front of Ximen Nu, then no matter if it was in politics or military, she could have become famous in the world. However, she chose to be a silent and nameless woman behind a successful man.
"Wan 'er, have General Ye and others arrived?" The eyes of Ximen Huo flashed and he asked while stroking his grizzled beard.
"They just arrived. They are waiting in the hall. Does my husband want to go and see them now?" Dongfang Wan replied.
"Of course, I want to go." Ximen Nu smirked. That treacherous aura was a bit similar to that of Longyi. It was unknown whether it was like father like son or like father like father.
Ximen Nu stepped into the hall with a dignified expression. Three men wearing the uniform of Dragon Empire's general and civil officials all stood up and saluted him with their chests puffed out.
"This time, I called everyone here to discuss something. Everyone, sit down first." Ximen Huo walked across the hall in large strides and sat down on a high back soft chair.
"Patriarch, is it just the few of us?" An old man wearing the uniform of Dragon Empire's civil officials asked in confusion. In the past, every time there was an important matter to discuss, Ximen Nu would call all his trusted subordinates. However, this time, there were only the few of them.
"Yes, you three have followed me for so many years. You are the people I trust the most." Ximen Nu said. Looking at the happy expression on the faces of the three people, a trace of killing intent flashed in his heart.
"Recently, Soaring Dragon City hasn't been too green. I think everyone already knows that at the most critical juncture of the attack on Proud Moon Empire, that old fox Long Zhan finally couldn't bear it anymore and made his move. In this one month, he set up several traps to deal with us. Fortunately, we were able to avert danger every time. Moreover, we also counterattacked. Although we couldn't injure him, it was enough for him to suffer for some time." Ximen Nu looked at the three people below him and said with a smile on his face. He seemed to be very happy.
"That was all because Patriarch could predict the enemy's movements. Every time, you were able to see through Long Zhan's arrangements. This subordinate really admires you." Ye Wufeng who was wearing a general's uniform looked at Ximen Huo and said.
Ximen Nu looked at Ye Wufeng. This was once his trusted subordinate. Now, he had unknowingly excluded him from the core circle of Ximen Clan. All of this was because his wife had an affair with Crown Prince Long Ying. Just this was enough to make the ruthless and merciless Ximen Nu want to exterminate Long Ying.
The Ximen Clan had endured for several hundred years. They absolutely couldn't allow any mishap. A small mistake would cause the entire Ximen Clan and its vassals to be crushed into ashes. They would never be able to rise again. Ximen Nu didn't dare to gamble. He had to be as hard as iron.
"As a matter of fact, this isn't my credit. We have people behind Long Zhan. I am clear about all their movements. How can Long Zhan fight against us?" Ximen Nu stroked his beard and laughed heartily. Then, he narrowed his eyes and looked at the three people below him.
The two civil officials flattered Ximen Nu with a happy expression. In their opinion, Ximen Nu had told them such a secret. This was enough to show their position in Ximen Nu's heart. How could they not be happy?
As for Ye Wufeng, his complexion tightened and an explosion resounded in his mind. His limbs became ice-cold and the happy smile on his face stiffened.
After Ximen Nu ordered the three of them to disperse, Ye Wufeng stayed behind.
"Is there anything else? General Ye. "Ximen Nu frowned. He faintly knew that Ye Wufeng must have sensed something.
Bang. Ye Wufeng knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Patriarch, please forgive me. Wufeng doesn't know what I did wrong. Patriarch, please make it clear." Ye Wufeng was a very intelligent person. His family had been loyal to the Ximen Clan for several generations. Moreover, he had grown up together with Ximen Nu. Ximen Nu's killing intent couldn't escape his perception. Moreover, he knew that it was impossible for Ximen Nu to say that there were people behind Long Zhan. Because he knew that it was impossible, he didn't feel any joy when Ximen Nu said it. Instead, he trembled in despair.
Ximen Nu looked down at Ye Wufeng who was kneeling in front of him and said indifferently with an ice-cold gaze, "Wufeng, I believe that you won't betray me. However, you made a mistake. That is, you married a fickle woman. Your wife colluded with Crown Prince Long Ying. You still don't know about this matter, right?"
Ye Wufeng's mind went blank. The woman he had always been proud of had actually betrayed him. He didn't doubt anything that Ximen Nu said. If Ximen Nu said that there was someone behind Long Yi's back, then there was definitely someone behind Long Yi's back.
"Wufeng, I can't lose … …" Ximen Nu said to Ye Wufeng in a low voice.
Ye Wufeng trembled. When he raised his head again, his expression was already firm. He calmly said, "Patriarch, I know what to do."
Three days later, Long Zhan and the Military Advisor behind him knew that there were people behind them. They began to become nervous internally. Each of them was paranoid.
Seven days later, the Ye Residence was massacred overnight. General Ye Wufeng, his wife, children, servants and maids all died. The scene was shrouded by a strong barrier, so no one noticed it. It was said that this was done by the Dark Church because the entire Ye Residence was filled with dense dark aura.
