To Fight Openly and Maneuver Covertly [2]
Besides that, the Emperor had rewarded many treasures to Huang Bei Yue. The whole Lin Huai City all knew that Huang Bei Yue from Princess Zhangâs Prefecture was appreciated by the Emperor. Who would dare to look down at her?
Now that Xiao Zhong Qi had caused such a huge trouble, even if the prime minister had begged the Emperor, there would be no use. However, if Huang Bei Yue went to beg, things would be hard to say.
Dong Ling coldly smiled: âHow did she treat our young miss before? If she dared to beg, I will beat her out.â
Pei Xiang hurriedly added: âThatâs right, she wonât even come because sheâs afraid to lose face.â
âPei Xiang.â Huang Bei Yue calmly stated. âGo back and try to convince her to come to beg me. Maybe Iâll really help her.â
Pei Xiang was stunned, even Dong Ling was. They didnât understand.
Huang Bei Yue didnât explain because it was rowdy at the door.
Xue Che had been yelling but Xiao Zhong Qi hadnât shown up. How could he let this go? Instead, he had begun to use violence.
The huge spiderâs claws slashed down and a couple of the Xiao familyâs experts flew away.
Xiao Yuan Cheng angrily shouted: âXue Che! We didnât even figure out what happened. Why are you using violence?â
Xue Che shouted more angrily: âHumph! Xiao Zhong Qi is someone who canât face the reality and is hiding from the problem! Heâs not out which means he actually stole something thatâs why heâs scared! If you know whatâs good for you, let him come out and hand over the Lotus Flame Furnace and Water Pearl. Then weâll let him go.â
âWho said this young master isnât coming out?â A voice came from the front yard. He wore a body of silver armor and walked to the front in large strides. He stood in the middle of the yard and pushed the long-handled weapon with pointed tip and crescent blade onto the floor.
âWhy are you blaming it on me when Anguo Gongâs Prefecture was the one who lost something?â
Xue Che saw him and his eyes were red. Anguo Gongâs face was filled with anger.
âXiao Zhong Qi, you had dropped your personal jade pendant and you want to say itâs not you?â Xue Che raised his hand and took out a block of green emerald jade.
Xiao Zhong Qiâs eyes widened, âWhy do you have my jade pendant?â
âHumph! Why? You should ask yourself this question. Hand over the Lotus Flame Furnace and Water Pearl!â
âI told you, I donât know what a Lotus Flame Furnace is!â Xiao Zhong Qi defended.
His personal jade pendant is always by his side and he would never take it off. Why would it appear in Anguo Gongâs Prefecture? This most likely meant he had been chosen to be the scapegoat for someone else!
But based on this situation, this pair of father and son believe that he is the thief! There was no way to explain this!
Xue Che saw that he would never admit to it no matter what so his anger increased!
âOkay! You donât want to admit to it. Then when I kill you, I will search for it!â Xue Che raised his hand and that red spider screamed towards the sky. Its eight legs crawled in the direction of Xiao Zhong Qi.
That Xiao Zhong Qi isnât that weak either. After all, he is an Imperial Silver Warrior. His strength can go against a four-star summoner and their spiritual beast!
However, Xue Cheâs red spider was too strong. With this level even a six-star summoner who saw it might not even battle against it.
Xiao Zhong Qiâs head dropped down beads of sweat. His hand held the long-handled weapon with a pointed tip and crescent blade, and he got in fighting stance. His eyes widened like a cow.
âStop!â In the black nightâs street, came a cold yell.
Following that, the sound of horses rang.
âIn the middle of the night, those who are trying to find trouble in front of Princess Zhangâs Prefecture are disturbing the imperial security! Those with this crime can be beheaded!â A voice of authority sounded.
