Zhangsun Guanyin knew the entire plan, so he could not help but say anxiously,""Brother, what should we do now?"
"Go see Tuli immediately…No…No way…"
Zhangsun Wuji stood up and sat back down. He thought hard and said,"Now that the court banquet has just ended, the Ministry of Justice definitely won't dare to relax. It's really unwise to go and see Tuli now. Let's wait…let's wait another six hours.”
After Zhangsun Wuji finished speaking, he raised his teacup. Before he could even bring it to his mouth, it was directly overturned. It was enough to show that his heart was far from being as calm as it appeared on the surface.
Zhangsun Guanyin could not hide the worry on her face. She frowned and said,"How could this be? Didn't Big Brother already discuss this with Tuli? Could it be that Tuli…"
"No…Tuli would never betray the alliance agreement with the Profound Secrets Pavilion.”
Zhangsun Wuji directly interrupted Zhangsun Guanyin's words and said firmly,"Over the years, the Profound Secrets Pavilion has invested countless manpower and financial resources in Tuli. Without the Profound Secrets Pavilion, he wouldn't be where he is today.”
"But…Tuli has already obtained the support of the War God Hall. Our Profound Secrets Pavilion's influence in the Western Plains is far from comparable to the War God Hall's.”
Zhangsun Wuji was speechless. If this incident had happened again, he could still firmly believe in Tuli's character and believe that Tuli would make the right choice. But now, he was a little shaken.
What gave him a bigger headache was the series of consequences caused by Tuli's sudden change of heart. After all, Pang Yu was the number one expert in Li Shi Min's Heavenly Policy Prefecture, and also Li Shi Min's right-hand man. Now that such an accident had happened, he didn't know how to face Li Shi Min in the future.
"Then what exactly happened at the court banquet?”
Zhangsun Wuji clenched his fists tightly and looked anxiously at the sun hanging high in the sky. In order to find out the truth, he had to meet Tuli personally.
Finally, in the endless torment, the sun set on the horizon, and a small sedan slowly drove out of the Wind Cloud Pavilion.
In front of the Ministry of Justice, Zhangsun Wuji sat calmly in the palanquin. However, his slightly trembling hands revealed the nervousness in his heart.
He knew very well that the conversation with Tuli would directly affect his future plans. If Tuli really betrayed the Profound Secrets Pavilion and completely switched to the War God Hall, then all the plans he had made before leaving the mountain would be completely overturned.
"Young Master."
An attendant stood respectfully beside the palanquin and called out softly.
Zhangsun Weijing immediately lifted the curtain and said calmly,""How did it go?"
The attendant hesitated." I just heard that someone met with Tuli two hours ago. Then…then Tuli disappeared. The Ministry of Justice is now sending bailiffs to search for Tuli's whereabouts.”
"Disappeared?" Zhangsun Wuji asked in surprise.”
The attendant nodded and looked around. He lowered his voice and said,""This subordinate secretly bribed the bailiff in charge of receiving Prince Tuli and found out that the person who met Prince Tuli seemed to have some relationship with the Li family.”
"What?!"
Zhangsun Wuji could no longer hide the shock in his heart. Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and said anxiously,"Quick, quick, go to Li Shi Min's residence! Also, send a message to Peacock!"
As night fell, a small sedan was galloping wildly on the long street.
Zhangsun Wuji lifted the curtain and looked at the horizontal board with the words 'Li Manor' engraved on it. He felt slightly relieved and ordered,""Charge in directly!"
"Yes, sir!"
The sedan chair bearer was also an outer disciple of the Profound Secrets Pavilion. He had extraordinary hands. When he reached the front door, the horsewhip in his hand made two sounds that tore through the air. It directly sent the two guards who came up to him flying. At the same time, he drove the sedan chair into the residence without slowing down.
"Someone's trespassing, come quickly…"
A few middle-aged men who looked like butlers shouted as they retreated, their expressions extremely flustered.
Zhangsun Wuji could not help but heave a sigh of relief when he saw that the manor was peaceful. He bent down and walked out of the sedan chair. Just as he was about to explain to the guards who had surrounded him, he heard a heaven-shaking battle cry coming from the inner courtyard.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack…"
"Protect Young Master!"
" Quickly protect Young Master and leave!"
Zhangsun Wuji's heart thumped. He knew that what he had predicted had come true. He hurriedly rushed into the inner courtyard. After taking a few steps, he saw Li Shiming fleeing in a panic, covered in blood.
"Li Shi Min, I want you dead!"
Nalan was clad in golden armor. He followed closely behind Li Shiming. A strange mark appeared on his right palm, and he attacked Li Shiming's back with a cold and fierce look.
"Brother Li, be careful!"
Zhangsun Wuji had an unknown source of strength, and he rushed behind Li Shiming at a speed far faster than usual, forcefully taking Nalan's attack for him.
Nalan revealed a hint of disdain in her eyes. She threw Zhangsun Wuji away as if she was swatting an ant. Just as she was about to continue chasing, she suddenly stopped and looked up with shock in her eyes.
"You…should…die!"
The peacock let out a hoarse voice and charged at Nalan like a gale.
"Boom!"
The fist and palm collided. Nalan was directly blown away by the enormous force. He violently collided with the green stone arch. A trace of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.
"You…should…die!"
The peacock stood motionless on the spot. It seemed to have expended a lot of effort to say these three words. Then, it rushed towards Nalan again. Its speed was so fast that it was almost impossible to catch it.
"Impossible!"
Nalan was filled with endless shock and hurriedly dodged to the side. However, she had only made half of her movements when her stomach was heavily injured. Her entire body immediately arched like a shrimp and was thrown high up.
The peacock didn't stop for even a moment. Its right foot stepped on the green stone archway and shot into the sky like a cannonball. The green stone archway shattered with a loud bang.
"Absolute strength and speed, how…how is this possible!”
Before the shock in Nalan's eyes could be wiped away, his back was mercilessly stepped on by the peacock, and he was directly smashed into the pond in the courtyard.
"Come…out!"
After saying these two words mechanically, Peacock also bent down.
At this moment, Zhangsun Wuji woke up in a daze. Nalan's palm strike had targeted the Dantian Sea of Qi. He did not cultivate martial arts, but because of this, he had managed to survive.
Peacock, don't hurt her."
With that, Zhangsun Wuji's body tilted and he fainted again.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:011720192:32PM
