C284

The flames in the tavern soared to the sky, causing all of the people in the western part of the town to tremble.

The commoners thought that the house was on fire and didn't care too much about it. At most, they would only pay attention to the fire and candles, while those who were truly powerful trembled in fear.

What does the Liangliang King want to do!?

"Bo Luan, who did this?" Zhenxi Prince Manor also saw the soaring flames. A tall and thin man wearing a python robe rubbed his temples as he whispered to the scholar beside him.

The tall and skinny man tightly furrowed his brows. His complexion had turned ashen because of this matter, and the bulging veins in his forehead was a testament to his anger.

The four dragons on his clothes seemed to be roaring soundlessly as his anger flowed through them.

This person was the owner of the Western Prince Manor, Liang Prefecture's Prince Liang! Li Anyi!

"I don't know, but it definitely wasn't one of our men." Bo Luan bowed and replied.

"Now, everyone knows that Si Li, that little emperor, wants to destroy the vassal lords, and the first one is us, Xi Liang. At this crucial moment, Flying Fish's tavern was burnt down. Do you think someone will make any wild guesses?"

"Yes, there will be people making wild guesses."

Prince Cheng Chuan's eyebrows relaxed and tightened as he looked at Bo Luan. His tightly clenched fists loosened and tightened. Looking at Huang Bo Luan in front of him, he let out a long sigh.

"Was it done by Ling Bei Ying?"

With a shred of luck, he asked Bo Luan in a low voice.

"Ling Bei's eagle hasn't moved."

"Li Kedi, your heart is truly ruthless!"

He looked at Huang Bo Luan, as if he had aged three years, and said slowly: "Let Boss, Old Third come back, it is no longer safe outside, and I have also ordered the Knight of West Cold to transfer back. If I want to go out, I will be able to see nearly a thousand of them."

"Understood, Your Highness. Are there any other arrangements?"

"Get rid of all the Lingbei Eagles here. Now that the Great Wei has to take care of the family matters, these Lingbei Eagles can't be underestimated!"

"Understood!"

"..."

It had been such a long night. Waves of howls, waves of hoof steps, and other sounds were coming from the direction of the people, making it difficult for them to sleep in peace.

However, no one dared to say anything even though it was so noisy.

This was because they all knew that the ones making a racket were the Steel Cavalry of Xi Liang, and the ones making a ruckus were the Prince of Zhen Xi Palace!

"Chaos, chaos."

Li Ye could not sleep either. He could already guess what was going on outside by the light from the window.

"Zheng Hou should be back by now. Di Yuan, send a few experts to meet him." Li Ye gazed into the distance and instructed Di Yuan.

"Got it."

Di Yuan nodded, his eyes filled with a passion he had never felt before.

It had been far too long since the Heaven Seizing Eagle had caused such a commotion. He wanted to use the Liang Household to leave a deep imprint on everyone in the world.

"..."

Right now, Zheng Hou was incomparably cautious. This was the first time he snuck into the Prince Zhen's manor, and he didn't know what kind of scenery it would be.

Dangerous or safe.

Everything was unknown.

What he did not expect was that even though his movements were so light, he had still been discovered.

The Prince's Mansion of the Western Garrison was truly worthy of being called the Prince's Mansion of the Western Garrison!

"Sir, since you're here, come down and take a seat." A silver white knife suddenly appeared near Zheng Hou, dodging him off the roof.

Zheng Hou snickered and flipped over, the edge of his clothes just brushed against the tip of his blade. "A boorish person like me cannot drink the tea of the Duke's Mansion."

"Those who come are all guests, who cares if they are unskilled or not." The blade of the knife's owner twisted, causing the blade to suddenly twist. In place of a slanted blade, the blade slashed down towards Zheng Hou's face.

"Ding." Zheng Hou had nowhere to run, so he could only respond with both hands.

A pair of gloves as thin as cicada paper grabbed onto the blade of the scimitar. The tip of his feet also repeatedly tapped backwards, avoiding the sharp knife's attack.

The expression of the owner of the sharp knife changed slightly. Suddenly, the corner of his mouth opened wide and the sharp knife in his hand began to tremble.

Zheng Hou hurriedly released his grip on the blade and retreated over and over. His fingertips trembled from the pain.

"Customer, please come down from the roof. Wait for the host to arrive. Have a cup of tea before you leave." The master of the sharp knife politely said with a smile.

"If I come, I won't be able to leave." Zheng Hou snorted lowly as his body charged over like a meteor, a cold light flashing from his waist.

Instantly, flames shot out in all directions.

The two incomparably sharp sabers collided with each other, emitting a sound that made one's teeth ache.

After a single clash, the two of them split up.

After a few collisions, the houses around them had already been broken into pieces by the saber lights, turning into a pile of rubble.

"Your Excellency has great ability, how can you be a thief?" The owner of the sharp knife let out a long sigh and tore off a piece of cloth, wrapping it around the tiger's mouth.

"..." There's nothing that isn't a thief. " Zheng Hou spat out a mouthful of blood and chanted, "I'm just not the same as those who obey. Believe in your Liang Wang, I believe in my Great Wei. How did you become a thief?"

"Flying fish?" Knife's expression changed and his voice trembled with excitement as he asked in a clear voice.

"If you say I am, then I am." Zheng Hou did not confirm nor deny it. He only spoke a few words indifferently.

Then I'll have to keep you here.

Under the illumination of the moonlight, the sharp blade flashed eleven streaks of silver light, turning into eleven stars and slashing towards Zheng Hou.

Zheng Hou only dodged ten slashes and another landed heavily on his shoulder.

However, his opponent did not gain any advantage. Zheng Hou's saber had also left a deep impression on his opponent's abdomen.

"Golden Blade Sect?" Zheng Hou let out a muffled grunt. His upper body was instantly dyed crimson by the blood that spurted out of his shoulder.

"Golden Blade Sect, Han Dahe." Han Dazhi clenched his teeth and wrapped the cloth around the wound on his abdomen, revealing his well-made upper body and his scarred upper body.

"Protecting the Liangliang Emperor must be very bitter." Zheng Hou suddenly asked nonchalantly.

"Of course, after all, there are many people who do not harbor good intentions towards the Liang Wang." Han Dazheng was also surprised. He smiled and replied, "The dozens of wounds on my body were all left behind to save the Liangliang King."

Zheng Hou saw that the wounds on Han Da He's body that were wrapped around like centipedes were caused by One Ling.

"Why?"

he asked suddenly.

"Why? What other reason do I need to protect a hero who can defend against Ling Bei? " Han Dagang looked at Zheng Hou in confusion. He did not know why Zheng Hou would ask such a question.

Wasn't Flying Fish trying to protect a hero of the Great Wei Empire?

Unfortunately, Zheng Hou wasn't a flying fish.

He is the tool of ambition for the ambitious.

"Heroes. Heh, no one is a Hero." Zheng Hou suddenly burst into laughter. Even though the wounds all over his body had ruptured and blood continued to pour out, he still endured the pain and laughed loudly and presumptuously.

This world needed heroes, but unfortunately no one was a hero.

The Liangliang Emperor was not one. Neither was the Emperor of the Great Wei. Neither was Li Ye. They were all people filled with desire and could not be considered heroes.

"Remember, no one in this world is a hero." Once Zheng Hou finished laughing, he suddenly looked gravely at the young man who was still mumbling nonsense.

"The Liang King is a hero!" Han Dahe was dissatisfied with Zheng Hou's words as he said clearly.

"Hur hur." Zheng Hou chuckled twice as if he was mocking Han Dazheng's words.

Hearing the footsteps from all around, he understood that Han Dazhi said so much to him in order to keep him. But wasn't he?

Two white mud balls suddenly appeared between the two of them. As the mud balls exploded, white smoke suddenly gushed out, blocking everyone's line of sight.

By the time the smoke dispersed, Zheng Hou, who should have been standing with his hands on the ground, had already disappeared, leaving behind only a pool of blood.

"Zheng Hou, was it too long ago that you were injured this badly by a junior?" Di Yuan carried Zheng Hou, whose body was covered in blood, and asked in a worried tone as if he was complaining.

"Haha." Zheng Hou wasn't angered. Instead, he smiled and said, "I'm already old. I'm no longer as young as I am now. The juniors these days are too powerful."

"I'm too lazy to say anything to you." Di Yuan was unwilling to say more. He only looked worriedly at Zheng Hou's wound, his feet also moving a little faster.

"..."

"Miss Yu, look at Old Zheng's injury?" Li Ye's expression also changed when he saw Zheng Hou covered in blood, but his face that was covered by the mask did not reveal any expression.

He had only called for Yu Meiyin to take care of Zheng Hou on his behalf.

Yu Meiyin looked at Zheng Hou in front of her, her face also becoming deathly pale. After taking a look, she nodded heavily and said coldly, "It can be treated, but this year it's best not to touch that hand, otherwise it'll be crippled."

Zheng Hou nodded gratefully as he took a handkerchief and closed his eyes, waiting for Yu Meiyin's treatment.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss." The blade grazed Zheng Hou's wound, causing him to be unable to restrain a roar.

His face turned red and then as pale as tofu, and his entire body felt like it was about to burst.

If it weren't for the few people holding his body down, he would already be in so much pain that he would be a cooked prawn.

A few pots of clear hot water were served up, then turned into a blood-red colored water was carried down.

By the time he sewed the wound on Zheng Hou's shoulder, it was already the latter half of the night.

Yu Meiyin wiped the sweat from her forehead, her whole body went limp and she collapsed on the cold ground.

Zheng Hou's lips, on the other hand, were dark purple, his face pale and trembling uncontrollably.

"Take good care of her." Li Ye, who had been watching from the side for a long time, walked up and exchanged for a few servants to carry Zheng Hou away.

"Are you feeling well after seeing so much blood?" At the same time, Li Ye supported Yu Meiyin and whispered into her ear.

"Not bad." Yu Meiyin stubbornly replied, but her pale face exposed all the fear in her heart.

Li Ye noticed but didn't point it out. He only chuckled a few times and supported Yu Meiyin, whose legs were weak, to walk towards her room.

Once upon a time, he also came to the Azure Province with wounds all over his body.

Let him kill a man's daughter and heal him.

He didn't know what the current girl who guarded the Phoenix Cry Pavilion by herself was like, but there was still one favor that he hadn't done yet.

"Young Master Li, Mei Yin has never stepped out of the Li Family's domain, nor seen the real world. Do you think this world is really that bloody?" The woman leaning on Li Ye's shoulder suddenly moved her head slightly. She lifted her head to look at Li Ye, took off the mask on Li Ye's face, looked at Li Ye's towering face, and asked with a smile.

Li Ye didn't know how to answer. He was silent for a long time, looking at Yu Meiyin, unable to say what he wanted to say. His heart was not this hard.

"Young master, speak, Mayne has already passed the age of innocence and romance, and is able to listen to these ugly and evil words." Yu Meiyin smiled and said.

Li Ye suddenly froze, wanting to take the mask from Yu Meiyin's hands and say such cruel words again.

"Young master, speak frankly." Yu Meiyin's hands moved back and forth to dodge it, but she did not let Li Ye snatch back his mask.

Li Ye stopped fighting and lowered his head. He said slowly, with a heavy three points, "This world is so cruel. If you want to drink human blood, you have to eat human flesh."

"How terrifying." Yu Meiyin used her white fingers to cover her mouth as she spoke in a soft tone of surprise.

Li Ye raised his head, looked up at the obscured moon, and slowly said, "Yes, it's really terrifying."

"Young master's face was eaten up by this world, Mayne can see that Young Master Li's face was originally very handsome." Yu Meiyin unconsciously stretched out her hand and touched Li Ye's face.

Li Ye shivered all of a sudden.

Her soft hand gently touched Li Ye's wound and traced the scar to the corner of his eye.

Such a cold hand actually made Li Ye feel warm.

That tavern was also so warm.

This feeling didn't last long before Li Ye suddenly woke up. He lightly touched Yu Meiyin's hand and lightly said, "This wasn't destroyed by the world, it was destroyed by me."

"Why?"

"Forced by someone."

"Isn't that because of this world?"

"…"

That is true.

After walking around for a long time, Li Ye realized that he still hadn't mentioned Yu Meiyin, so he could only nod and admit it.

"Then how about we change this world?" Yu Meiyin suddenly jumped out from Li Ye's arms, pointed to the sky and said with a smile.

Li Ye stared blankly for a moment before revealing a brilliant smile that had never appeared before after his disfigurement.

"Alright, let's change the world!"

"Then let's be heroes of this world, heroes who can change the sky and change the earth."

Li Ye just silently watched Yu Meiyin's actions without saying anything.

He knew that the world needed heroes, but no one was a hero.

Because what he had done was the dirtiest, most shameless thing in the world.

"..."

"Is this the item from the Prince Zhenxi's estate?" Li Ye looked at the paper in front of him with unfriendly eyes and asked slowly.

"Right."

"The Liangliang King thinks too little of the spies. He actually hid these things on the surface."

"What if it was set up by someone else?"

"Then the Liang Household will be completely taken over by others. Then his prince will just be a guest staying there."

"So what do we do next?" Di Yuan lowered his head and asked Li Ye in a low voice.

"Wait!" It's time to go back to sleep. It's time for the Cooling King Flying Fish to lose sleep. "

Li Ye pinched a chess piece and lightly tapped it on one side.

Now the black game was in place, waiting for the white game to end.

Right now, he was like a fisherman who was holding a club, forcefully stirring up the already turbid water in the water and making it even more dark.
