"Xuanyuan Feng! Let me go! "

Along with Xiao Lan's furious roar, the afterimage outside the door completely went silent. If he was unable to guess what was going on inside the room at this moment, then he would be a complete fool.

The afterimage silently left the room, but it did not leave completely.

Xuanyuan Po's eyes dimmed as he heard the footsteps of the afterimage not leaving completely. If the afterimage had not left even under such circumstances, it was likely something important.

Xuanyuan Yun quickly raised his arm and quickly pressed it against Xiao Lan's body a few times.

In the next second, Xiao Lan, who was constantly struggling in anger, was instantly frozen on the spot.

Not only was Xiao Lan unable to move his body, even his voice couldn't be heard.

Xuan Yuan!

This person who was being slashed a thousand times actually pierced through her acupoints.

Xuanyuan Yun straightened his body and frowned in displeasure when he saw that Xiao Lan wished she could swallow his gaze.

"As expected of a woman, a woman still has to be taught. She doesn't look like a woman at all."

Xuanyuan Yun walked straight out the door.

Xuan Yuan!

Right now, Xiao Lan not only wanted to swallow the Xuan Yuan, he didn't even want to be a piece of trash for him to eat.

Even if she, Xiao Lan, were to explode right now, she, Xiao Lan, was already far away from Xuanyuan, and would not be able to affect Xuanyuan Yun in the slightest.

Thus, Xiao Lan could only silently listen to his heavy breathing, as well as his heart that was beating so fast that it wanted to prop up the mountain.

At the pavilion in the bamboo garden.

Xuanyuan Wentian sat beside a stone table and wiped the blood droplets that were almost dried off from the corner of his mouth.

The afterimage had keenly witnessed this scene, and was able to clearly see the cracked corners of Xuanyuan Wentian's mouth. For a moment, his heart that had been calm and collected, fiercely staggered.

My god, is his prince using force …

He didn't know if it was a success or not …

After a moment, he shook his head.

I don't think so. If it was a success, it would be impossible for the prince to come out so quickly. It will take him a while to get dressed.

The afterimage glanced at the corner of Xuanyuan Yun's mouth again. Furthermore, with this wangfei being so hot, it would take some time to tame her.

Shadow had never known that he would have such a gossip one day, or that he would even guess at some random things in his head.

Xuanyuan Po, who was sitting at the stone table, looked at the afterimage for the third time with obvious annoyance in his eyes.

Was this subordinate of his who he had always regarded as a confidant and had extraordinary abilities retarded today? He had already looked at him three times, but not only did he not report the matter, he was shaking his head alone.

What's wrong?

He took the wrong medicine!

When the shadow glanced at him once, surreptitiously, and its gaze clearly fell on the corner of his mouth, Xuan Yuan understood.

"An afterimage!"

Xuanyuan Wentian shouted out angrily, has he gone mad? What's going on in his head!

This stern voice immediately brought the afterimage back to life, and the afterimage that seemed to be instinctive immediately kneeled on the ground, as it slightly raised its eyes, and carefully looked at Xuanyuan Wentian's expression, then instantly lowered its head after reading it.

His Royal Highness seemed to have seen through his conjecture …

"Prince …"

Shadow's eyes remained calm for a moment, then he pursed his lips, his mind finally remembering his purpose for coming here.

Without any hesitation, the afterimage quickly reported.

"Your Highness, your subordinate has discovered that Crown Prince Nanxuan has secretly sent people to thoroughly rummage through the palace. He seems to be looking for something."

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Wentian's eyes that were filled with anger finally calmed down, and a moment later, it became incomparably heavy.

"Looking for something in This King's manor?"

"Yes."

The color in Xuanyuan Wentian's eyes darkened.

What could his estate have?

"Did you find out what he was looking for?"

The afterimage shook his head, "Your subordinate is afraid of alerting the enemy, and didn't apprehend anyone who wants to search for you. However, according to your subordinate's secret observation, Crown Prince Xuan's men don't care about anything but the beads."

Beads?

Xuanyuan Yun's eyes narrowed.

His palace seemed to have no special pearls, even ordinary pearls were pitifully few.

Xuanyuan Wentian lightly tapped a few times on the stone table with his finger.

"Could it be that Prince Mo will send his troops to the Orchid Garden on the day of his treasure hunt?"

"Exactly."

It was indeed...

If that was the case, Duanmu Zimo's actions were a diversion. That day, he had purposely shown a slight difference in attitude towards Fang Lanyi, so as to have his full attention on the orchid garden. He could take advantage of this opportunity to search for something …

In other words, Duanmu Zimo had only used her, and had nothing to do with her. The two of them...

Xuanyuan Yun's eyes narrowed once more.

Perhaps it was just as Wei Lanyi said, there was no relation between them at all. They did not know each other, and were not familiar with each other.

If that was the case, then who was the man who met at the top of Dragon Reaches Pavilion on the day of their wedding?

Xuanyuan Yun slowly stood up.

He had already told her that she was seriously ill. If that man was truly interested in her, he would have definitely appeared. Why was he still nowhere to be seen?

Xuanyuan Yun's eyes could not help but look into the distance, his gaze deep and profound.

He did not understand, why did the Prince not speak anymore? He was still waiting for the next step to deal with the matter regarding Crown Prince Xuan.

After a long while, when he saw that Xuan Yuan was still silent, he couldn't help but ask in a small voice.

"Your Highness, what should we do with Prince Mo's subordinates? Should we capture the person who was looking for them secretly, or …"

The afterimage's question caused Xuanyuan Wentian to regain his composure. He turned his head and gave a cold smile as his expression remained indifferent.

"There's no need to catch him, keep an eye on him from the shadows. This king wants to see what Duanmu Zimo is looking for."

"Yes."

Suddenly, Xuanyuan Yun remembered the scene in the great hall tonight.

The heavy crossbow in Shadow's hand.

When was that huge wave made?

Recently, she was either unconscious or by his side. How could she have the chance to forge a crossbow?

Xuan Yuan took a step towards the shadow, this subordinate of his probably knew.

Sensing Xuanyuan Yun's approach, the afterimage's entire body froze.

Xuanyuan Yun was keenly aware of the strangeness of the afterimages.

What, scared?

What was there to be afraid of?

Xuan Yuan stood in front of the afterimage. "Afterimage."

The two words that were originally plain on the surface, caused the afterimage to freeze once again, because the afterimage's keen senses allowed it to sense Xuanyuan Dong's hidden sharpness.

Had he done something wrong?

Shadow slowly raised his head, resisting all his fear as he looked at Xuanyuan Yun.

"Prince …"

Xuan Yuan stared at the afterimage.

"What did Fang Lan tell you after he woke up?"

The afterimage quickly recalled and narrated everything without missing a single detail.

After Wangfei woke up, she first asked where the prince had gone to, and this subordinate told her that you had entered the palace. Then she asked for the reason, and this subordinate gave her an explanation, one by one. Then, after being silent for a long time, she ordered the Warm Fragrance Pavilion of the Hou Mansion to take the crossbow.

Go to the Hou Mansion to get a bow and crossbow from the Warm Fragrance Pavilion?

Xuan Yuan frowned.

So that crossbow was forged in the Warm Fragrance Pavilion?

She didn't expect that she would forge a crossbow so early. What did she want to do with the crossbow back then?
