Chapter 1153 - piercing through the heavens (1)

“It’s the heavenly frost wine that I’ve been keeping for a long time. ” Qu Bo’ an smiled.

“Before drinking it, warm it with a small fire for a while. When the cold air inside is released, the taste will be better.”

He waved his right hand.

A burst of spiritual energy rushed out and transformed into a flame, which enveloped the wine jar and began to warm the wine.

Under his deliberate control, the wine jar was safe and sound. It was not broken, nor was it destroyed by the fire.

“I don’t have a lot of this wine, less than twenty jars in total. The ingredients required are all worth a city, so I’ve always kept it here and didn’t bring it with me.”

“Give me some later.” Xiao ran did not stand on ceremony.

“At most three jars. This is already the limit of what I can offer.”

“Plus the formula.”

“Alright!” Qu Bo’ an agreed readily.

He took out three jars of the thousand-year-old heavenly frost wine and handed them over, along with its recipe.

Xiao ran kept the items.

“I thought you wouldn’t be here so soon.” Qu Bo’ an said.

“I didn’t expect it to come so quickly either.”

“Because of Qian Xuan?”

“Yes.” Xiao ran responded.

“Do you know why the nether prison is called nether prison? Why is the nether guard called the nether guard?”

“I’m all ears,”

At this moment.

The skyfrost wine had already been warmed, and just as he had said, its fragrance had increased by at least five times. The rich aroma of the wine was everywhere, and at the same time, a cold air was being emitted.

Luo Qiping had a good eye. He picked up the wine jar and poured a bowl for Xiao ran, then another for Qu Bo’ an, and finally for himself.

In the wine.

The cold air circulated and formed a layer of ice that contained dense spiritual power.

“Try it!” Qu Bo’ an made a gesture of invitation.

He took a sip from the bowl. When the wine entered his stomach, apart from the strong spiritual power, there was also a cool feeling. The fragrance was strong but did not dissipate, lingering in his teeth.

It was as if his soul had been sublimated.

“Good wine,” Xiao ran praised.

Even the elemental spirit wine paled in comparison to it.

“That’s natural. ” Qu Bo’ an smiled complacently.

He took a sip and continued the topic.

“The nether prison and the nether guard were not called this name before. When our nether prison came into being, we became enemies with the Zhou state, crazily targeting the royal family and other people. Many people died in our hands, including an Empress. Later on, the two sides fought to the death, trying to get rid of each other. From then on, they changed their names and targeted us.”

“No wonder.” Xiao ran was enlightened.

The names of the three sounded similar, and it was easy to confuse them. If there was this twist, everything could be explained.

“Why do you want to be enemies with the Zhou state?”

“I don’t know!” Qu Bo’ an shook his head.

“There are too many things involved in this. From the moment our nether prison was established, it seems that it was to destroy the Zhou state. As for the secrets, even I don’t know about them.”

The three of them clinked their bowls and finished the skyfrost wine in one gulp. Luo Qiping poured another cup.

“You’re now on the wanted list of the nether guard. They seem to have sent people to great Xia to secretly get rid of you. If they find out that you’ve appeared in person, they’ll definitely not let you off!”

“You think I wouldn’t know?” Xiao ran retorted.

“My current identity is Su Yan, a great scholar of Jiyin Academy.”

He took out the Jiyin Academy’s identity token and placed it on the table.

Looking at the token, Qu Bo’ an was stunned and confused.”How did you do it?”

“This matter is complicated.” Xiao ran briefly explained the situation.

After listening.

“I didn’t expect you to know concubine Qing.” Qu Bo’ an sighed.

“We’ve investigated her. She’s only been in the palace for two years, but she’s already established a considerable force. She also has a grudge against Consort de. In order to get rid of her, she’s used all kinds of means. The two of them are like fire and water, and they can’t wait to get rid of each other.”

“How’s the thing I asked you to do?” Xiao ran asked.

“!!!”Qu Bo’ an’s face darkened.

He took a sip of wine to hide his embarrassment.

“Last time, after killing the eighth prince, we were chased to the capital of great Xia. This time, we have already decided on our target, the sixth Prince. There are only two days left until the day he will be conferred the title of King. We are prepared to take action at that time and get rid of him!”

“The sixth Prince killed the first imperial concubine and played with her. The evidence was taken by Consort de’s men. If you can find this evidence, you can use the first Prince’s hand to take him down without any effort.” Xiao ran said.

“You don’t know?” Qu Bo’ an asked.

“Know what?”

“Our spies have sent news that the item seems to have been lost. The sixth Prince’s men were killed as soon as they entered the capital, and the item was also robbed. It’s still missing.” Qu Bo’ an’s expression was serious.

“The first Prince and the other factions have also sent people to search the entire capital for this item.”

“Has it been snatched away?” Xiao ran frowned.

“It seems like the waters in Zhou are deep. Many people want to stop him from being crowned King.”

“Everyone’s power is similar. If he is crowned King, he will take a crucial step. No one wants to see this.” Qu Bo’ an said.

“Yes.” Xiao ran nodded.

After the meal.

The waiter came in, took the map of nether prison, and placed it on the table. Then, he left respectfully.

“Are you really going?”

“There’s no other way. ” Xiao ran said.

“You need our help?”

“No need for now!” Xiao ran refused.
