Chapter 558 - Golden House (2)
“There’s news from the palace. The head of the Imperial Kitchen is dead. ” The eldest Princess said.
“How did he die?” Xiao ran frowned and put down his teacup.
“He died of illness! The body has already been disposed of. ”
“They’re really fast. The dead can’t testify.” Xiao ran mocked.
“I’ve already sent people to continue the investigation. As long as it’s man-made, there will be some clues left behind. I don’t believe that they can hide forever.” The eldest Princess coldly snorted.
The topic changed.
“What’s with this deer demon?”
Xiao ran briefly explained the situation.
After listening.
“The capital is going to fall into troubled times again,” The eldest Princess sighed.
“It’s getting late, rest early. ” Xiao ran stood up from his chair.
“Yes.” The eldest Princess responded.
He pointed at the items on the side.
“Take some.”
“Alright,” he said. Xiao ran agreed.
He took half of the Royal items and put them into his seven-treasure Jade belt.
He left the cell, locked the door, and left.
After leaving the Imperial prison, he looked up at the sky. It was already past midnight.
He shook his head.
He didn’t go to the spirit gods Department to look for Ling Qing ‘er. He would go there the next day. Instead, he walked home.
West of the city.
In a remote courtyard, the goldfish God and the others who had just fled in a hurry appeared.
The black-robed men set up their defenses, instantly protecting the courtyard.
Jin Yu brought his confidants into the hall, and Hei Yu closed the door.
He sat on the main seat.
The goldfish God’s expression was very cold. The pretty face hidden under the mask didn’t need to be deliberately twisted, and a lot of water could be squeezed out.
It was covered in frost and carried a murderous aura.
Her eyes were gloomy as she clenched her hands under her sleeves, making cracking sounds.
From this, one could see how furious she was.
Bang! Bang!
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. The goldfish God angrily slapped out with his palm, and the huge palm force instantly turned the table into ruins.
He said coldly.
“Damned animal! You actually dare to play with me. ”
Yin Qingyu said,”now that things have come to this, no matter how angry we are, it will be of no use. The most important thing now is to take Ling Qing ‘er away without the help of their Suan ni dark realm. It’s harder than ascending to heaven. ”
“Hmph! How could this senior not know this?” The goldfish God snorted coldly.
“However, we can’t afford to lose Ling Qing ‘er. No matter what price we have to pay, we have to take her away.”
As she said this, her gaze turned even colder.
“Since she was able to develop the fish-Dragon Armor, if we let her stay here and continue her research, she might be able to develop even more powerful treasures. In the long run, the Xia country’s Army will rise to a terrifying level. When that time comes, we will have no chance of winning against them. ”
Everyone was silent. They all knew that she was telling the truth.
However, without brother Lu, it would be impossible to kidnap Ling Qing ‘er without anyone knowing.
Suddenly.
The Black-tailed fish said,”my Lord, when the time comes, let’s storm in and directly abduct her, shall we?”
“Shut up!” The goldfish deity berated.
“This subordinate knows his mistake!” The Black-tailed fish immediately knelt on the ground and admitted his mistake, his head very low.
“This is Xia country’s capital. Tell me, how can we attack by force with just our manpower? I’m afraid that they’ll capture you before you can even get close to Ling Qing ‘er. ”
Her Jade-like fingers tapped on the table, giving off a “ta ta” sound.
After a while.
The golden fish deity’s eyes flickered with a hint of madness and ruthlessness.”I have an idea.”
Yin Qingyu’s eyes brightened, and she asked hurriedly,”what idea?”
The golden fish deity did not say anything. Instead, he took out a ball of golden light.
The golden light was suspended in his palm. The moment it appeared, a mysterious and terrifying aura spread out, overshadowing everything and filling the hall.
Shua!
When they saw the golden light, their expressions all changed.
Yin Qingyu seemed to have guessed something. She looked anxious and tried to persuade him,”master, don ‘t! This heaven’s will was something we obtained with great difficulty, and we almost lost our lives because of it, even losing countless people! We can’t waste it here no matter what. ”
“Although heaven’s will is good, it needs to be matured quickly. Without sufficient resources, heaven’s will can only be heaven’s will, like the moon in the well, it can be seen but not used.” The goldfish deity said.
His heart ached, but he had no choice.
No matter what, Ling Qing ‘er had to be captured. She couldn’t be left behind in Xia country.
Even if he couldn’t get her, he would destroy her.
He pretended to be relaxed.
“Using the will of the heavens as bait, we will spread the news and muddle the waters of the capital. Those who receive the news will know that this is a pit of fire, but they will still jump in without hesitation. The situation will become chaotic, and that will be our chance.”
“But what if we lose the Heaven’s Will?” Yin Qingyu said worriedly.
“If it’s lost, then it’s lost. It can only mean that we’re not fated to meet it.” The goldfish deity had already made up her mind.
His tone turned cold.
“However, we paid a huge price to obtain this heaven’s will. Even if it’s stolen, we still need to know its whereabouts. When the other party has cultivated it to maturity, they will send people to snatch it. This way, it will save us a lot of trouble. ”
“Are we really going to do this?” The silver Green fish made a final effort.
“I’ve already made up my mind, you don’t have to persuade me anymore. ” The goldfish deity said.
“Spread the news. With the help of heaven’s will, we can kill three birds with one stone this time.”
“It’s the Lord!” The Black-tailed fish replied respectfully.
……
Back at home.
Just as he entered the bedroom, Zi ‘er’s voice came from inside.
“Husband, it’s you?”
“Yes.” Xiao ran closed the door and responded.
He entered the bedroom.
