The atmosphere was particularly solemn in the morning court today. Ji Wuye, Zhang Kadi, Bai Yifei, and all the ministers were present except for Han Fei, who had just been released.
"This time, I called all of you here because I have something to discuss.”The King of Han's tone was somewhat helpless. As the weakest country among the seven countries, he had always had to act according to the expressions of others.
"May I know why Your Majesty called us here?”Ji Wuye asked.
"There are two important guests coming to Xinzheng tomorrow. This Prince wants to discuss with the ministers how to welcome them. Also…guess…their purpose for coming to Xinzheng.”
Everyone kept guessing in their hearts who was coming to make the King of Han mobilize so many people.
"I wonder which two distinguished guests are coming, Your Majesty, so that we can make some preparations according to the preferences of the distinguished guests.”He opened his mouth and asked.
"The person who came is the second of the five elders of the Yinyang School, Xiang Jun, Xiang Furen.”King Han's tone was somewhat helpless.
The Hundred Schools of Thought might be the most outstanding in literature, but in terms of martial arts, the Yin-Yang School alone could destroy a country. Moreover, they had the strongest country of the seven countries, the Qin Country, behind them. The Han Country did not dare to offend them, nor could they afford to offend them, nor did they dare to neglect them.
Everyone was shocked. The sudden arrival of Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen, two of the five great elders of the Yinyang School, was indeed a cause for wild imagination.
Even Ji Wuye, who had the power to rule the Han Country, could not help but look solemn. He did not dare to provoke the Yinyang School. The 100,000 cavalry could not withstand a single blow from the Yinyang School and the Qin soldiers.
"May I ask Your Majesty, did this Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen explain the reason for coming to Xinzheng?”Zhang Kai asked.
Han Wang shook his head helplessly. If he knew, it would be much easier. It was a pity that he was still in a daze and did not know what the Yin-Yang School's attitude was.
"Xiang Jun, Xiang Furen is here!"
As everyone was discussing, the summons of a guard suddenly came from outside the hall.
So fast! Everyone was shocked.
Xiang Jun, who had almost recovered, wore a purple robe and walked in with Xiang Furen. Looking at their loving appearance, it was really enviable.
"Greetings, King Han." The two of them bowed.
"Esteemed guests, please don't be so polite." How could King Han dare to be arrogant? He hurriedly returned the greeting.
"King Han, please forgive us. My husband and I had originally planned to come back tomorrow, but this is our first time in Xinzheng and we find it new. Secondly, it was all thanks to Lord Di Yun that we were reunited after a long time. Now that Lord Di Yun has given the order, we didn't dare to be negligent, so we came to Xinzheng a day earlier.”Xiang Jun explained and conveniently compensated King Han for his crime. She was giving King Han face and this made King Han feel much more at ease.
" You're welcome. Xin Zheng welcomes you both. May I know who Lord Di Yun is…" King Han returned the greeting and asked.
"Lord Di Yun is the supreme elder of the Yin-Yang School. In the Yin-Yang School, his status is second only to Lord Donghuang and is on par with Lord Dongjun.”Xiang Jun replied.
What the hell! Supreme Elder! Second only to East Emperor Taiyi!
All of a sudden, countless thoughts ran through everyone's mind as they tried to guess which senior this mysterious Di Yun was.
" I wonder what instructions Lord Di Yun has…"
Lord Di Yun wants someone."
"Who is it?"
" Lord Di Yun's whereabouts are strange and erratic. He likes to travel around the mountains and rivers. A few days ago, he came to Xinzheng and was harassed by a beggar. He was annoyed and hurriedly hid. Lord Di Yun's favorite Yin Yang Fish Jade Pendant, which was given by Lord Donghuang, was stolen by that beggar. When Lord Di Yun went to look for him, that beggar had actually disappeared without a trace. " Lord Di Yun left Xin Zheng in anger, but he still bore a grudge. He heard that King Han was arresting a criminal named Li Kai and saw his portrait. Only then did he realize that Li Kai was the one who stole the jade…" Lord Xiang said.
"That's why the person Lord Di Yun wants is Li Kai. My husband and I are here to escort him back to the Yin-Yang School and await Lord Donghuang's judgment.”Madame Xiang continued.
Li Kai? Why was it Li Kai again?
Although King Han wasn't a wise ruler, he wasn't an old fool either. He could still distinguish the importance of the matter. He had captured Li Kai to cover up the truth of the past. Now, the two great elders of the Yinyang School had come to capture Li Kai. If he offended Lord Di Yun, the Han Country would be in trouble.
Lord Di Yun's anger could very well trigger the entire Yin-Yang School.
" Xiang Jun, Xiang Furen, don't worry. Li Kai is currently on death row in Han Country. I didn't expect that he would dare to steal Lord Di Yun's jade pendant. I have decided to hand him over to the two of you, but…"
"I wonder what King Han is worried about?"
"It's just that Li Kai's whereabouts are still uncertain and we haven't caught him yet. But don't worry, once we have news, we will immediately inform you.”
"Thank you, King Han. If you have any news of Li Kai, you only need to inform us and we will go and arrest him.”Xiangjun said.
"Men! I'll bring the two honored guests to rest first. This king will hold a banquet tonight to welcome the two of you.”The two supreme elders of the Yin-Yang School had come to Han Country. In addition, the supreme elder, Di Yun, was very likely to be in Xin Zheng. King Han had a little idea.
If they could get the help of the Yin-Yang School, Han Country might soar to the sky.
"Please wait!" Just as Xiang Jun and Madame Xiang were led out of the hall by the guards, Ji Wuye suddenly spoke.
"Minister Ji, is there anything else?" King Han was slightly displeased.
"Your Majesty, it is rumored that the Yin-Yang School's Yin-Yang Art is mysterious and unpredictable. It is difficult to defend against ghosts and gods. It has been difficult for me to see it. Today, I am lucky enough to hope that the two sirs can show some of their skills. Moreover…how do we know if the two of you are imposters?”
These words caused a stir in the court, and the King of Han was displeased.
"Minister Ji, don't be rude!"
Ji Wuye ignored King Han and bowed to Lord Xiang." Please enlighten me," he said." Or are you two imposters? You don't dare?"”
"It seems that the Yin-Yang School has been dormant for a long time. The world has forgotten the fear of being suppressed by the Yin-Yang School. "Since you want to see the Yin-Yang Art…then…" Xiangjun suddenly disappeared.
So fast! No! It was an illusion. Ji Wuye looked around solemnly.
A large hand suddenly appeared in front of him. Ji Wuye reached out to block it, but he was forced back two steps by the powerful force.
Xiang Jun's figure disappeared again, and when she reappeared, she was already beside Madame Xiang.
"Is this how the Yin-Yang Art works? " But if…" Before he could finish, Ji Wuye felt a pain in his hand. He looked down and saw a peony flower tattooed on his palm. It was dazzling.
"After being hit by my curse, your hand will be pierced by ordinary needles for two hours. Consider it a lesson for you.”Xiang Jun said in an uneven tone.
"You!"
"I didn't say that my husband would let you off.”Madame Xiang waved her right hand, and a red vine spread toward Ji Wuye along the floor.
Ji Wuye's expression darkened. He reached for his waist with his right hand, but it was empty. He then realized that he was in the imperial court and could not wear a sword.
A figure suddenly appeared in front of Ji Wuye. It was Baiyifei, who had appeared out of nowhere. Wherever his feet passed, white frost would be left behind.
"Ice attribute internal strength? Ha, showing off in front of an expert." Madame Xiang looked at Bai Yifei with disdain. The vines rose and a bright red flower bloomed. It was the transformation.
Bai Yifei hit the Resurrection Lily with his palm, scattering the flower. He took a step back and retreated to Ji Wuye's side.
"Xiang Jun, Xiang Furen is very capable.”As he spoke, Ji Wuye bowed. However, he looked as uncomfortable as he could be. In Han Country, he rarely suffered this kind of anger.
Madam Xiang snorted coldly and left with Xiang Jun by her wrist.
Everyone was in an uproar. The Yin-Yang School…was indeed terrifying. Xiang Jun's attack had inflicted the Yin-Yang Art on Ji Wuye, and even Lady Xiang had managed to tie with Bai Yifei. However, that was not the case.
…………
" Cough cough…" Xiangjun covered her mouth and coughed twice.
"Husband, are you alright?" Mrs. Xiang asked with concern.
"It's fine. The palm just now affected the wound, but it's not a big deal. I didn't expect Ji Wuye to have such brute force and extraordinary internal strength. Madam, how about you? Are you alright?"
"I'm fine. The one who should be in trouble is the one who took my move. Does he really think everyone is Lord Di Yun?”
Madame Xiang, who had fused two top-notch water-type cultivation techniques of the Yin-Yang School, might not be as good as Dongjun in terms of understanding the Yin-Yang Art, but her strength was almost the same as Dongjun's. The two souls used two kinds of internal strength, which was equivalent to two against one. The fusion of two internal strengths was not as simple as one plus one equals two.
…………
After the morning court session, Bai Yifei followed behind Ji Wuye expressionlessly.
"I didn't expect the Yin-Yang School to be so powerful. Two elders actually made me suffer a huge loss. How strong is that Xiang Furen?" Ji Wuye was furious.
Baiyifei sighed and reached out his right hand that had been hidden in his sleeve.
"This!" Ji Wuye's heart sank.
Bai Yifei's right hand was emitting a cold aura, and the surface of his hand was covered in frost.
"That Madame Xiang's ice qi is far better than mine. My ice is cold and hard, but hers…is also a kind of coldness that comes from the depths of the soul.”Even though he did not want to admit it, Baiyifei knew that he was still a distance away from Madam Xiang.
"This is really troublesome. Li Kai…I don't know if it's true or not. Is it a coincidence?”Ji Wuye couldn't help but think.
"Regardless of whether or not someone is behind this, the Yin Yang School and Han Country can't afford to offend them, and neither can we…Relatively speaking, I think we should properly investigate this Yin Yang School's Di Yun. Since he started this matter, it should be related to the Fiery Rain Agate Case.”Baiyifei said.
"We can only let the guest slowly investigate. We can't alert the enemy.”
…………
"It's over. We're really helpless now.”As soon as he returned to Purple Orchid Pavilion, Han Fei felt a headache.
"Mr Han hasn't been here for days, and the moment he comes, he gets a headache. Are you here to extort our Purple Orchid Pavilion?”Violet Girl teased.
"Sigh, I'm worried. This time, I can't save Li Kai even if I want to.”
"What is it?" Wei Zhuang crossed his arms and asked coldly.
"Today, two distinguished guests came to Xin Zheng and specifically asked to capture Li Kai. Now that there are more patrolling soldiers in Xin Zheng, we can't even send Li Kai away.”Han Fei was a little helpless, but his brain was spinning rapidly, trying to find a solution.
"Who has come to make the King of Han mobilize so many people?”Violet Girl asked in confusion.
"Yin Yang School, Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen.”
"Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen?" Everyone was shocked. The Fiery Rain Agate Case actually involved the Yin-Yang School, and two elders at that.
Violet Maiden frowned slightly. Xiang Jun and Xiang Furen…hadn't they disappeared for six years? Why did they suddenly appear in Xinzheng?
"What do they want Li Kai for?"
"It's said that he was ordered by the Supreme Elder of the Yin-Yang School, Di Yun, to capture Li Kai.”
"Supreme Elder? Di Yun?" Everyone frowned. They had obviously never heard of this name before.
So it was Xiao Shuang's doing. She actually wanted to drag the Yin-Yang School out to suppress the Han Country and get involved in this mess. Wasn't she afraid that Lord Donghuang would be angry? Alright, Lord Donghuang really wouldn't be angry.
Violet Maiden understood and remained silent. Since the Yin-Yang School had made their move, Li Kai would be saved.
"That's troublesome. If we only save Li Kai from Ji Wuye, we still have a plan. If we want him from the Yin-Yang School, it's no different from pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth.”Zhang Liang said helplessly.
"There's no other way. We have to think of a way. As long as you're fast enough, the tiger won't be able to bite you.”Han Fei glanced at Wei Zhuang and had a plan.
Clang ~
Everyone turned around and saw Nongyu standing at the door with a pale face. Wine and food were scattered all over the ground.
" Miss Nongyu…" Han Fei was a little embarrassed. Although Nongyu didn't know that he had vowed to protect Li Kai, Han Fei still felt sorry.
" S-Sorry for disturbing you…" As she spoke, Nongyu picked up the plate on the ground and was about to leave.
"Nongyu…you already know?" Violet Maiden suddenly asked.
Nongyu thought for a moment and nodded.
"Then we won't hide it from you. Li Kai doesn't want to acknowledge you because he doesn't want to implicate you.”Violet Girl consoled.
"I know, I know. Thank you, sister.”As she spoke, Nongyu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, stood up, and turned to leave.
Seeing Nongyu's lonely back, everyone's hearts could not help but tighten. Only Violet Girl opened her mouth, wanting to say something to Nongyu, but in the end, she could only give up.
"Can you contact Li Kai?" Han Fei asked.
"Yes, I can."
"That's good. The situation is urgent and we can't afford to delay. We don't have that much time. We'll send him out of Xinzheng tomorrow and run as far away as possible.”
"How?"
Han Fei glanced at Wei Zhuang.
"You want me to stall those two from the Yin-Yang School? It would be useless. There were still so many of Ji Wuye's soldiers. They would not be able to send them out of the city gate. Instead, it would be easy to alert the enemy and attract their attention.”
"No, you go and stall Ji Wuye's men. As for the two from the Yin-Yang School…someone will naturally go.”
"Who is it?"
Han Fei had a dangerous idea, but danger equaled opportunity.
