"Prince Consort, there's no need to talk about the banquet. How did you end up being unlucky?”
Zhao Changnong interrupted him impatiently. He was already beginning to believe that he was really from the underworld, so he was too lazy to listen to the banquet and urged him to continue.
Qiao Xuan had no choice but to continue." Later on, my father asked who dared to go to the human world to find out about the background of this person. Who knew that everyone would cower and shirk their responsibilities. In the end, they really couldn't shirk their responsibilities. The Third Prince actually recommended me to take on this task. I was really unlucky. Fortunately, the Eldest Princess pleaded for mercy and only allowed me to come here for a year. Regardless of whether I found any news, I could return to the Netherworld at that time.”
"So it's really the Emperor of the Dead's noble family who's here on official business.”Zhao Changnong seemed to have come to a realization. He looked at Qiao Xuan's expression and asked,""Is that all?"
"Oh…if I don't return to the Underworld or send back news after a year, my father will personally lead the army and cross the border to seek revenge.”Qiao Xuan quickly added a few more words, afraid that Zhao Changnong had some malicious intentions.
As for Zhao Changnong, he was glad that he had discovered this person. If it were those juniors in the residence, they would not know about the Mass Grave, let alone the Sky Burial Underworld Kingdom."Then why did you possess this servant?”
"Sigh…! After I agreed to take on this task, my father passed down a treasure. Although I don't have any cultivation now, once I suffer a life-threatening attack, that treasure will automatically appear and violently kill the enemy.”
Qiao Xuan pretended to be mysterious and did not answer Zhao Changnong's question. Instead, he continued to make up lies to scare Zhao Changnong.
As for Zhao Changnong, he felt a faint sense of fear and slowly moved back, putting some distance between him and Qiao Xuan. He thought to himself,'Luckily, I didn't attack him back then.'
Realizing that he had really scared the old man, Qiao Xuan said,""Then, I also entered the world crossing halo leaf ring. From this chaotic burial space eye, I shuttled towards the Beifu Mass Grave. However, I didn't expect that these corner bandits would be too vicious. They actually ambushed me halfway and intercepted the pursuers. Fortunately, I had a treasure to protect myself, so I didn't die.”
"Then why are you injured like this?" Zhao Changnong was very puzzled and was even thinking," Keep bragging. You're only a martial soul now, so where are you bragging about having a divine soul?"
Qiao Xuan continued to lie and said with a bitter smile,""It's still because of that horned bandit. He's indeed a great bandit. When he realized he couldn't kill me, he smashed the world crossing halo and tried to use the Heaven Earth Creation and Destruction Purification Formation to kill me. That horned bandit used the Chaotic Burial Space Eye, but I fell into the formation and was immediately killed.”
Then, he immediately shut his mouth, his face full of horror and fear, his eyes filled with helplessness and fear, as if he was extremely afraid.
"Humph! This person was a cowardly silkpants.”Zhao Changnong was extremely disdainful, but seeing that he didn't want to continue, he said in a deep voice,"Prince Consort, quickly continue. You can rest after you're done.”
"Oh…! I'm really sorry, that array is too terrifying.”
Qiao Xuan paused for a moment before continuing,""At that time, I wasn't far from Beifu Mass Grave, so under the protection of the treasure, I abandoned the divine soul that I had painstakingly cultivated and stumbled over to this mass grave. However, I was not used to the Yang Qi of the human world. I saw a body on the grass. Although it was dressed as a servant, it was very fair and thin, so I plunged into this body.”
"Could it be that this person has that kind of hobby? He actually wants to find a thin and elegant person for this life and death possession. However, other than this little slave being fair and clean, how is he thin and elegant? However, other than being narcissistic and boastful, his words were reasonable.”
Zhao Changnong nodded and asked,""What about your internal injuries?"
Qiao Xuan still smiled bitterly." I realized that this person's talent was too poor, so I wanted to modify him a little. Who knew that his body was too weak? I didn't even use much strength and my veins were all injured.”
Seeing that these questions had been answered, Zhao Changnong asked again,""After you possessed this person, did you really not notice anything different?”
Qiao Xuan frowned and shook his head. He thought to himself, Why don't you believe me? I'm almost done with my story.”
"Usually, after a corpse is thrown into a mass grave, it will quickly disappear without a trace. I wonder why this servant's corpse can be preserved?”
Although Zhao Changnong was smiling as he asked this question, his eyes were filled with malice. It was clear that this big question had yet to be answered, so he would not completely believe Qiao Xuan.
"How would I know? From the moment that horned man appeared, everything was in chaos.”
At this moment, Qiao Xuan could only push the blame to the top corner man, thinking to himself," I've made up a lot of stories, so this is the only way. It's up to you whether you believe it or not."
"Is it really because of that horned man? Where did this expert come from?"
Zhao Changnong frowned and thought hard,"The one who injured Zhao Jingtian, that trash, was probably this top corner thief, sigh…!" "This is really a troubled time. I just ran away from that old thief slave, and now this corner thief has come. Also, the Chongwu Imperial Court seems to be making some moves. I shouldn't offend this person first or I might really offend the Sky Burial Underworld Kingdom."
Thinking of this, Zhao Changnong said enthusiastically,""So that's the case. This servant's body is too useless! " There are many outstanding disciples in my Martial Emperor Zhao's Mansion. If the half-prince consort is interested, he can take over my disciples!”
"Hmm, he actually scolded me and even tried to curry favor with me for no reason. Hmph!”Qiao Xuan suppressed the anger in his heart. Not only did his evil smile not diminish, but he also pretended to say gloomily,""That's great! It's just that sacrificing an outstanding disciple of your residence won't be a problem, right?”
Zhao Changnong waved his hand indifferently and said coldly,"This is this disciple's fortune and also the glory of my residence.”
Noticing the cold glint in his eyes, Qiao Xuan cursed in his heart,""How inhumane. This is also a ruthless person!”
"Elder Zhao, you haven't answered my question yet.”
"What did you ask?" Zhao Changnong was a little confused. He was so confused by Qiao Xuan that he had long forgotten what the question was.
Qiao Xuan rolled his eyes weakly and asked again,""You've been chasing this king for an entire day, what do you want?”
Zhao Changnong finally remembered and hurriedly replied,"This body of yours is involved in a serious crime, so I have to find this body.”
"I see! I was still puzzled. " I just came to the human world, and I have no other enemies besides that Top Horn Thief. When I saw you chasing after me, I thought you were a follower of the Top Horn Thief, so I used a treasure to cover my tracks. I wanted to fool you, but I didn't expect you to be discovered by you in the end."”
Qiao Xuan flattered him appropriately, wanting to see if he could numb this old man so that he could do things in the future.
Zhao Changnong laughed out loud and said,""You're too kind! In front of the Martial Emperor Patriarch of my mansion, I'm just an ant, hahaha…!”
Seeing that Zhao Changnong was in a good mood, Qiao Xuan pretended to ask casually,""May I know what important case this body of mine is involved in?”
"This manservant Qiao Xuan has a great relationship with an old thief slave.”Zhao Changnong's expression was fierce as he replied fiercely while silently observing Qiao Xuan's expression.
Qiao Xuan was immediately furious, but the evil smile on his face grew wider. He pretended to be uninterested and said,""Hey! I thought it was something big. It's nothing more than fighting for favor between servants. You don't have to talk about such trivial matters.”
"This matter isn't that simple. This old thief has been hiding in my residence for many years and has successfully cracked the secret of my residence. I suspect that this servant is an accomplice of this old thief.”
Zhao Changnong's expression was extremely heavy. He was very worried about the theft of the cultivation technique. He had to find the person involved and kill him.
"Oh…! Didn't your family take precautions? The cultivation technique had been cracked so easily?”Qiao Xuan pretended to be puzzled, but in his heart, he admired Uncle Yang's painstaking efforts.
"How can we not be on guard? This fundamental secret is the foundation of the aristocratic families. Although that old thief slave cracked the cultivation method, he was captured by the experts in the residence on the day of the incident. He was tortured and then searched by the divine technique. Although he was already stupid, the case was almost investigated.”
Zhao Changnong still wanted to bluff, so he answered honestly while secretly observing the kid's expression.
When Qiao Xuan heard that Old Yang had been captured and tortured beyond recognition, his heart ached terribly. However, he knew that Zhao Changnong must have been secretly observing him and understood that this old man was still determined to kill him, so he did not dare to show any pain or anger on his face.
Instead, he let out a long evil laugh to hide the grief and indignation in his heart. Then, he said fiercely,"Good, good, good! "I also hate and dote on this kind of traitor slave. Fortunately, this old thief did not succeed. Hand this old thief over to me and let me swallow him alive.”
Instead of letting Uncle Yang live and suffer, he thought to himself,'Why don't I end him and then destroy the Martial Emperor's Estate to avenge him? I'll become the ruthless villain that Uncle Yang spoke of.'
"Don't you want to hear what this person has to say? Oh! By the way, who is this?" Zhao Changnong asked casually.
Qiao Xuan almost blurted out " Old Yang," but was interrupted by the sudden pain. He supported his body and shouted," Ouch!"
Xi Huang had been happily watching the two of them act out their true colors when Zhao Changnong casually threw another set at him. Qiao Xuan instinctively wanted to say it, but he hurriedly stomped his foot in his sea of consciousness, immediately cutting off Qiao Xuan's words. However, this also caused Qiao Xuan to feel extreme pain.
"What's wrong, Prince Consort?" Zhao Changnong asked with great concern. Seeing Qiao Xuan waving his hand repeatedly, he urged,""You haven't answered my question, Prince Consort.”
At this moment, he was already awake from the pain. How could Qiao Xuan fall into the trap again?"Oh, right, what's the name of this old thief? What did you say?"
Realizing that Qiao Xuan didn't fall into his trap, Zhao Changnong became more convinced of Qiao Xuan's identity in the Underworld and replied,""The people in the residence call him Old Yang, but he doesn't have a specific name. He has told us everything, including Qiao Xuan. He has also secretly learned the fundamental secret of our residence. Therefore, I swear that I will find Qiao Xuan's corpse and grind his bones into ashes.”
At this moment, Zhao Changnong actually wanted to trick him again. He had to confirm the true identity of the person in front of him to avoid being laughed at by others.
Qiao Xuan's expression remained the same as he thought,""I don't believe you. If Uncle Yang really confessed, you would have blown me into pieces when you saw me just now.”
After thinking about this, Qiao Xuan acted like he was furious and shouted,""Ah pui! "I actually possessed such a thief. It's a disgrace to my reputation. Elder Zhao, please find a suitable disciple as soon as possible. After I possess him again, I'll definitely turn this thief into dust.”Moreover, his face was filled with deep disdain.
At this moment, Zhao Changnong was almost completely bewitched. Only then did he secretly release his slightly clenched fingers, but he did not dare to completely let down his guard. He saw Qiao Xuan respectfully say,"I have a request that Elder Zhao must agree to!”
