There was no need for him to say it. Seeing the tea, Dugu Jing understood. Niu Youdao was obviously guarding against this side. Even with Bu Xun present, he still acted so pretentiously towards such a famous person as her master.
When Waning Moon Pavilion was hunting Niu Youdao, Master went to Emperor Qi in a moment of desperation and made use of Qi's vast information network.
In this matter, his master had done it flawlessly. The State of Qi, as the middleman, would not be suspicious. However, he could not poke through the layer of paper that was the middleman. He could not let the two parties see each other through the hole.
Ordinary people might not care about the result of seeing each other, but was Niu Youdao an ordinary person? Someone who could force Shao Pingbo to flee, someone who could escape from Waning Moon Pavilion's heavy net, must have a sharp reaction!
Emperor Qi might not know that the Waning Moon Pavilion was hunting Niu Youdao at that time, but Niu Youdao was one of the parties involved, and he was fighting with the Waning Moon Pavilion at that time. How could Niu Youdao not remember the sudden change in the middle?
Now, Niu Youdao finally knew the reason for the change. The window paper was broken. Niu Youdao turned around and saw his master behind the hole. How could he not be suspicious? It would not be an exaggeration to say that it was shocking!
This cup of tea had already explained the problem!
With the mirror in their hands, they thought that Waning Moon Pavilion and Niu Youdao had reached an agreement and that the grudge between them was over.
They thought that Emperor Qi had lost face and Master had comforted Emperor Qi afterwards, so the matter should be over.
The reason was simple. Those who knew the truth wouldn't mention anything that would make Emperor Qi lose face. Instead, they would spread the news and make Emperor Qi lose face. Was it fun to offend Emperor Qi?
Who knew that Niu Youdao would suddenly come to Qi Capital and break into the palace to hunt down Shao Pingbo?
Who knew that Emperor Qi's Haoyuntu would take the opportunity to bring Niu Youdao here?
The matter was exposed just like that, catching them off guard.
"My identity is clear. He has no evidence yet. You know what to do." Yu Cang's eyes were cold as he said in a low voice.
"Yes!" Dugu Jing agreed. She knew that this matter was serious. Even if the matter of the mirror was exposed, she would not hesitate.
The exposure of the mirror would indeed cause a lot of trouble for the Waning Moon Pavilion, but the Waning Moon Pavilion was a hidden force after all, and it was difficult to uproot it. The exposure of the Master would expose the roots of the Waning Moon Pavilion.
"But this guy is very cunning. Once he realizes the danger, he won't be unprepared …"
Before Dugu Jing could finish speaking, Yu Cang took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve and handed it to her. At the same time, he raised his left hand and twirled his fingers in front of his nose to smell it.
Dugu Jing came to a sudden realization. Her Master had already prepared a backup plan. When she was helping Niu Youdao, she had already done something to Niu Youdao.
…
As the horse carriage left Fu Fang Garden, Niu Youdao, who was sitting in the carriage, could not help but sigh. He smiled bitterly and said, "Head Chief, why didn't you tell me about this beforehand?"
He thought that Yu Cang already knew about it. If he did not come, it would be self-defeating.
When he entered Fu Fang Garden and heard Bu Xun say to Yu Cang that he did not inform him beforehand and took the liberty to visit, Niu Youdao was filled with regret.
If he had known that the Waning Moon Pavilion did not know about it, he would not have come here. He would have tried his best to escape. Was there a need to let Yu Cang know that he knew?
But then again, he was too smart for his own good. With Yu Cang's eyes and ears, how could he not know if Yu Cang was in Fu Fang Garden? Was there a need to worry about missing him? With Yu Cang's status, was there a need to worry that Yu Cang would not meet him? Was there a need to inform him beforehand?
Bu Xun said, "You mean, I have to report to you first, no matter how big or small?"
How could he give Niu Youdao another reason to refuse?
Niu Youdao sighed and said, "Head Chief, I'm afraid I've been tricked by you this time."
Bu Xun said, "What do you mean? Isn't it good to have a chance to get to know Mister Yu Cang? "
Niu Youdao shook his head. Other than smiling bitterly, there was nothing else he could say.
There was a difference in status between people. Some people could be killed with a single word.
For some people, even if you shouted yourself hoarse, you would still be asking for it.
For people like Yu Cang, with his status, there were some things that could not be said carelessly. Even if you did not prove it, no one would touch Yu Cang. At most, it would make things inconvenient for him. If you alerted the enemy, it would be hard to get anything on him if he was careful.
Without evidence, with Yu Cang's status, no one dared to touch him, unless it was the Nine Great Supreme Martial Artists. But this kind of trivial matter might not be a problem in the eyes of the Nine Great Supreme Martial Artists.
And if he dared to say it, how could he leave? He would immediately be detained by the Qi Kingdom!
You said that Yu Cang was from Waning Moon Pavilion? The Qi Kingdom's General Huyan Wuhen was Yu Cang's student and held great military power. Once he said it, there would be a big problem. This was no small matter. How could the Qi Kingdom not detain him and investigate thoroughly?
He did not even have time to run now, so how could he dare to be detained? It was too dangerous to be detained under Yu Cang's nose. It was more likely that he was tired of living.
Niu Youdao knew that he might have gotten himself into big trouble this time, but he hoped that he was just overthinking it.
Bu Xun did not know why he was sighing and asked, "You can't be thinking of returning to the palace with me, right?"
Niu Youdao knew what he meant, indicating that he could get off the carriage and leave, but he had no intention of getting off. "I'm just hitching a ride. I've arranged to meet someone outside the palace."
He suspected that he was already in great danger and that the other party would attack at any time, so he did not dare to leave Bu Xun's side.
Since he said so, Bu Xun did not say anything else. The other party had given him face, so how could he not agree to hitch a ride?
The carriage rumbled forward until the palace was in sight. Niu Youdao stretched his hand out of the window and welcomed the sunlight.
Outside the palace, the carriage stopped.
Niu Youdao got off the carriage. Bu Xun pulled open the curtains and reminded him, "Don't cause trouble in Qi Capital."
Niu Youdao smiled bitterly, "After being tormented by you, even if you beg me to stay, I won't dare to. I'll leave immediately, alright?"
Just as he finished speaking, a black shadow swooped down from the sky. Uncle Chen had arrived on a Black Jade Condor. It hovered low above the carriage, alerting the guards inside and outside the palace.
Without permission, people and birds were not allowed to fly around the palace. If not for Bu Xun, they would have been detained for investigation.
"Head Chief, until we meet again!" Niu Youdao cupped his hands in farewell. His figure flashed, and he soared into the sky, landing on the bird.
Guan Fangyi, who had been tailing the carriage, also flashed over.
The bird carried the three of them and quickly flew away.
Niu Youdao did not dare to leave slowly. He had instructed Guan Fangyi in advance to leave as soon as possible, so that no one would have the chance to follow them.
"This fellow actually has a bird!" Bu Xun, who was watching from the window, muttered and slowly lowered the curtains.
The carriage continued into the palace. Bu Xun, who was sitting in the carriage, frowned slightly.
Niu Youdao's repeated words had caught his attention. He faintly felt that Niu Youdao was reminding him of something …
The vast capital of Qi Kingdom was far below them. In a forest outside the city, two birds soared into the sky and chased after them. Yuan Gang and the others, who had received the news and were temporarily hiding outside the city, had also caught up.
Guan Fangyi finally found an opportunity to speak, "Why are you leaving in such a hurry? Did something happen?"
Niu Youdao asked Uncle Chen for the finger bell to control the Black Jade Condor. Under Niu Youdao's signal, Uncle Chen's figure flashed out and landed on the nearest bird.
Uncle Chen also knew that his identity had been exposed, so it was better to avoid certain things.
At this moment, Niu Youdao sighed and said, "That Mister Yu Cang who bought your Fufang Garden is most likely someone from Waning Moon Pavilion …" He then told Niu Youdao about how Bu Xun had brought him to meet Yu Cang.
"This …" Guan Fangyi found it hard to believe, "Is that possible?"
Niu Youdao said, "Maybe it was a coincidence, but what happened back then was too suspicious. I used several tricks to deal with it and should have diverted Waning Moon Pavilion's attention. What happened later proved that to be the case, and the journey was quite smooth. But not long after the administrator station suddenly intervened to stop us, Waning Moon Pavilion's people accurately pinpointed our location. If I hadn't been extra careful, I'm afraid we wouldn't have been able to escape. "
"He actually went to the Emperor of the Qi Kingdom to find a master for his disciple, especially someone as insignificant as me. It's one thing to ask him about it, but he's not here. It's not like he's in a hurry. He can contact me in the future if there's a chance. Will it be difficult for Yu Cang to contact me with his connections? Was he insensible, or was Vast Cloud Map muddle-headed? Was it worth mobilizing the power of a nation and mobilizing the administrator station to search the entire country? "
"He dragged me all the way back to be his disciple. Who would be his disciple? Isn't it a little too rude? Is there such a thing as a disciple? And the timing just happened to be at that time. It's hard not to suspect that he had ulterior motives. "
Guan Fangyi's expression was solemn, "Now that you mention it, it's indeed suspicious. If Yu Cang is really someone from Waning Moon Pavilion, then his position in the Waning Moon Pavilion must be extraordinary. "
Niu Youdao said, "It's for sure. With his identity and influence, it's impossible for him to lower himself. It's entirely possible that he's the Pavilion Master of Waning Moon Pavilion."
Guan Fangyi shuddered at the thought that she might have seen through the identity of the mysterious Pavilion Master of Waning Moon Pavilion. "This Mister Yu Cang is involved with many dignitaries in various countries. Many of his students are in high positions in various countries. If he's really a high-level member of Waning Moon Pavilion, then the implications are too broad. You didn't tell Bu Xun, did you?"
Niu Youdao said, "Would I dare to tell him? If I did, would I still be able to leave Qi Capital? "
Guan Fangyi asked nervously, "Does Yu Cang know that you've seen through him?"
Niu Youdao said, "This time, I've been tricked by Vast Cloud Map. I can't say anything about it. This kind of thing can't be revealed. Once it's revealed, as long as he's guilty, he'll definitely suspect me. "
Guan Fangyi panicked, "Then why are you in such a hurry to escape? If you leave in such a hurry, won't Yu Cang be even more certain that you've seen through him? How can he let you go?"
Niu Youdao said, "If there's really a problem, he'll definitely attack me at all costs. I don't even dare to drink water in Fufang Garden, so how would I dare to stay? If there's no problem, I won't care even if I escape. If there's really a problem, I'll die if I don't escape. Do you think I should escape? Damn it, this Qi Capital is really my lucky place. I'll escape every time I come here. "
