Zhutian: From Douluo, the illusion becomes real

Chapter 547 546. Zi Lan Xuan gathers together!
The moon sets and the sun rises, it's a new day.

Last night's drizzle came slowly.

So it didn't go fast.

It was so soft and gentle, and lingered throughout the second half of the night.

Except for Ye Qingcang who took care of all of this personally.

And, as a bystander, Jingwei witnessed everything that happened last night.

No one knows what happened that night.

Because everything remains the same.

When the first ray of sunlight in the early morning pierced through the dark clouds and fell on the peddlers in the streets and alleys, accompanied by shouts from all directions, a new day began, just like the previous ones.

Ye Qingcang's wording has always been rigorous.

If we expand the scope to include living things.

Well, there are indeed many creatures that know what happened that night.

As small as a faceless man.

As big as Ice Emperor and Snow Emperor.

They are all witnesses, just like the Jingwei.

It can even be said that many of these creatures are participants, also called parties involved.

But, they are not human!

So, there are only two people who know what happened that night.

One is called Ye Qingcang.

One is called Jingwei.

At this moment, they were all sitting in the small courtyard they bought yesterday morning.

Enjoying the tranquility after the summer rain.

It's a little hot, but it can't hide the refreshing and comfortable feeling.

One is flipping through the letter paper.

One watched the other flipping through the letter.

"Are you hungry?"

"Take you out for something to eat?"

a long time.

After reading the letter three times.

Ye Qingcang, who was sure that Jingwei was still looking at him, broke the silence.

Hold the letter flat.

Use your index finger to support its center and center of gravity.

He shook it casually, turning the letter like a card.

"Want to eat at Zi Lan Xuan?"

Jingwei was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked.

She is not one to hide things.

But she had to admit that sometimes it was necessary to hide.

At least after seeing what happened last night.

She thought she needed to adjust her attitude, including modifying her tone, so as not to anger Ye Qingcang, even though this was unlikely.

"Of course...if you want!"

Ye Qingcang also doesn't like to hide things.

But sometimes metaphors are indispensable.

Because metaphors can make originally unpleasant words sound nice, even if the essence of the sentence cannot be changed, it is still necessary to do the face-saving work. Sufficient face-saving work can allow the speaker and the listener to reach a consensus in a pleasant atmosphere. Even if consensus cannot be reached, they can exit peacefully with polite and tactful apologies.

Be able to take into account other people's feelings during conversations.

It is a rare and precious accomplishment.

However, as mentioned above, Ye Qingcang did not like to be secretive, so after the metaphor, he chose to make it clear: "If you have not made up your mind, you don't have to go... This time I went to Zi Lan Xuan, basically to show my cards. I heard that Brother Han Fei got the position of Si Kou from his father. Although Hong Lian made a lot of efforts in this process, if you don't look at the process, you only look at the results. Brother Han Fei unconsciously put himself on the card table. Next, he will play an open card with Ji Wuye... And since he can invite me with the letter from Zi Lan Xuan, it means that he was here last night. I have already cracked the test set by the Purple Lady of Zilanxuan and the Ghost Valley descendant behind her. Although I cannot imagine what method these two people used to make Han Fei become Sikou overnight, and it was decided at the court meeting this morning. After all, the case of the ghost soldiers robbing the pay has not happened yet, and Han Fei has not had enough opportunities to wedge into the court. But I must admit that I underestimated the heroes of the world... So, if you haven't made up your mind, it's better not to wade into this muddy water, lest I have to kill you. Even if I control you, it goes against my original intention!"

"The net cannot withstand your erosion."

"Even if you are not the current Luowang leader, you will definitely be the future Luowang leader. This is my assertion, and I am absolutely sure of it."

“You could also view it as a prophecy.”

Jingwei was exceptionally calm.

It is also very rational.

The tone was decisive.

It doesn't sound like a prophecy at all.

"so?"

Ye Qingcang raised his eyebrows.

Jingwei's judgment doesn't mean anything because it is a fact.

It's just like Jingwei admitting that he can't beat him.

Not convinced.

Rather, it means that you know you can't win.

But she does not lack the courage to admit it.

To put it bluntly, compared to losing, not being able to afford to lose is something more despicable.

Therefore, if Jingwei surrendered so quickly.

Then it’s not Jingwei.

You know, in the original book, Jingwei was still confused for a long time after having a child. Only then, urged by the awakened maternal love, did she make up her mind to escape from the trap and live her own life.

At the moment, Jingwei has no maternal love at all, so it is 100% difficult to conquer her. It is just a dream to expect her to surrender with just a few words.

However, what happened last night did give Jingwei a huge shock.

Even right now.

Thinking back to what happened last night.

Jingwei still felt a little frightened.

But this did not affect her not to respond to Ye Qingcang's words, but to follow her own thoughts: "I have no other intentions, it's just that I have nowhere to go... In Xinzheng, the forty-three transfer points prepared by Luowang, which are also all the transfer points, were all controlled by you overnight. More than fifty innate warriors of Luowang's Xinzheng branch were all controlled by you... Maybe it's a bit exaggerated to say that you destroyed all of Luowang's arrangements in South Korea overnight, but it is an indisputable fact that all of Luowang's arrangements in South Korea have been paralyzed at this moment... Starting from the identity of Luowang's top killer, I should follow you closely, find your weaknesses, and finally, get rid of you and restore Luowang's ability in South Korea. From a personal point of view, I think you have the ability to replace Luowang's current leader, so I should stay by your side, constantly get evidence to prove my inference, and provide you with assistance when appropriate... Of course, that's after you become the leader of Luowang."

“The more you know, the harder it is to leave.”

"However, considering that you already know a lot."

"A little more, a little less...it doesn't matter!"

Ye Qingcang shook his head.

The letter spinning on my fingertips suddenly stopped.

Pinched between index finger and thumb.

Then, he stood up and said, "Forget it. Since you have given a reason for following me, then just follow me. Although I don't have the power to bewitch people and turn sword slaves into my loyal followers, I am not afraid of being spied on by a self-aware sword master like you."

There is a saying that goes well.

When you stare into the abyss, the abyss stares into you.

On the contrary, if you remain indifferent.

That is impeccable.

I'm not afraid of you snooping.

But you don't snoop.

Jingwei, who obviously didn't understand this, naturally fell into the trap set by Ye Qingcang again. He followed Ye Qingcang to Zilanxuan and met Han Fei and Honglian again.

Zilanxuan is always full of lights and wine at night.

There were many dignitaries who came here to seek pleasure.

Most of Zilanxuan’s information also comes from here.

To put it bluntly, it is well known that when men cannot control their belts, they often cannot control their mouths, and intelligence comes from this.

But this has nothing to do with Han Fei.

It has nothing to do with Honglian.

When Ye Qingcang and Jingwei arrived at Zilanxuan, Zinu was chatting with Han Fei in the box. However, Zinu, who always did things foolproof, had made relevant preparations for whether Ye Qingcang and Jingwei would come or not, to ensure that no important guest would be neglected.

So, when Ye Qingcang walked in.

Several young and beautiful girls came over.

Blooming.

Hide the Jingwei in it.

Then, he half pushed and half dragged Ye Qingcang to the second floor.

Then go to a staircase on the third floor from the second floor.

Suddenly, they stopped in tacit understanding.

Ye Qingcang and Jingwei were handed over to a girl who had been waiting here for a long time.

"Hello, two distinguished guests."

"Sister Zi Nu told me to wait here."

"If you two come, I will lead you to the third floor and into the room where Young Master Han Fei is... If you two don't come, you can go to the third floor and play the zither to cover up the sound of Young Master Han Fei and the others talking."

"My name is Nong Yu." "I'm the zither girl from Zi Lan Xuan."

"You two can just call me that."

The girl named Nong Yu was wearing a long court dress.

Her appearance is not the kind that can surprise people at first sight.

But the kind that is particularly pleasing to the eye.

To put it bluntly, it's the type that gets better the more you look at it.

After saying this, he bowed.

The temperament of a lady from a noble family is incompatible with a place of entertainment like Zilanxuan.

But Ye Qingcang was used to it.

Of course he knew the characters in the original work.

Especially, Nanyue has quite a few scenes.

As the daughter of Mrs. Hu, the niece of Lady Hu, Zi Nu's most trusted confidant, Bai Feng's white moonlight, and a member of the Liusha organization.

If Nanyue’s martial arts ability was a little higher.

Still quite promising.

However, martial arts cannot be rushed.

In addition, force and wisdom are relative. As long as the force is not strong enough to be invincible, it will still be restrained by the wisdom of the same level. However, no matter how smart a person is, he can only make plans behind the scenes and still needs people with force as thugs to solve problems.

Maybe after Zi Nu retired.

Nanyue would be a qualified heir.

This already meets the standard.

A higher level of military power is like icing on the cake.

Anyway, Zi Nu had no intention of training Nanyue to become a top master. Just like herself, she was a comprehensive talent.

In terms of military strength, he is inferior to Wei Zhuang.

In terms of intelligence, he is inferior to Han Fei.

But being the second-in-command, you need to check for deficiencies and fill in the gaps.

It can also be said to be a panacea.

Still quite competent and suitable.

Of course, although Ye Qingcang knew Nanyue, he still had to be polite, not only because Nanyue treated him politely, they should return the same amount of respect, but also because Nanyue was a very good girl and had never offended him, so he really couldn't bear to ignore her: "Miss Nanyue, hello, my name is Ye Qingcang... Please wait here, and please lead the way. I'm a newcomer and I'm not familiar with the environment here."

"Mr. Ye is too modest."

Nong Yu smiled slightly.

I have a slightly better impression of Ye Qingcang.

No one doesn't like the feeling of being respected by others.

Especially since her identity is quite special.

Qinji.

Even though there is a saying that one can sell art but not one's body.

But in this romantic place, how many people really sell their art instead of their bodies?
Even though she knew she was innocent.

But others don't know.

So, she has become accustomed to being looked down upon.

Even people may imagine some disgusting things in their minds.

Don't expect to be respected by others.

Now, this Mr. Ye, who looked about the same age as her, not only did not look down on her, but he didn't even sound perfunctory in his answer.

Be as polite as possible in your wording.

It was hard for her not to feel a good impression of him.

However, although she had a favorable impression, Nanyue did not forget her job. She raised her arm and pointed in the direction of the stairs from the second floor to the third floor, then said, "Please follow me, both of you!"

"please."

Ye Qingcang said politely.

Following behind Nanyue.

Jingwei continued to maintain his golden character. As the saying goes, silence is golden. He followed Ye Qingcang, and the three of them stepped into the box on the third floor.

"Hey...Brother Ye is here?"

"And Miss Jingwei."

"And this... ahem, Miss Zi Nu, would you like to introduce her to me?"

Seeing Ye Qingcang has arrived.

Han Fei immediately raised his glass and gestured.

It can be said that he is quite outgoing.

However, in the room, it was no longer Ye Qingcang and the other three from the night before.

If Nanyue is included, there are seven people in total.

Not counting Nanyue, there are six people.

The two extra people were Zi Nu, the master of Zi Lan Xuan.

And, a handsome guy with short white hair, wearing black and gold warrior outfit, holding a special-shaped long sword in his hand, standing in front of the window with his arms folded, seemingly posing, with a cold expression.

He looks about the same age as Han Fei.

At this moment, the gaze turns back.

Look at Ye Qingcang.

He also looked at Jingwei behind Ye Qingcang.

"Mr. Nine has good eyesight."

"let me introduce."

“This is my most trusted sister.”

"My name is Nong Yu."

"Excellent piano skills, but not good at speaking."

"Don't bully her, otherwise, I will help her hold her accountable!"

Zi Nu made a harmless joke.

Then, he signaled Han Fei with his eyes.

Han Fei understood and put down his wine glass.

I plan to introduce the people on my side.

However, he was still one step ahead of it by the white-haired young man standing by the window.

The topic was killed in two concise sentences.

"Weizhuang."

"A disciple of Guigu Sect."

The introduction was smooth and straightforward, and he quickly gained Ye Qingcang's favor, although for Wei Zhuang, this was just a basic operation.

Because compared to these unimportant little things.

He was more concerned with something else.

"Is it really okay to let this top assassin from Luowang come over here?"

The sharp wording made Zi Nu frown slightly.

He glanced at Ye Qingcang worriedly.

She knew Wei Zhuang's character.

Wei Zhuang’s speaking style is acceptable.

That doesn’t mean Ye Qingcang and Jingwei can accept Wei Zhuang’s speaking style.

If Ye Qingcang and Jingwei regarded Wei Zhuang's words as a question, even if they reconciled later, their first meeting would inevitably be unsatisfactory.

They say first impression is important.

Should she speak up to smooth things over?
Because as far as she knew, Ye Qingcang was not a pushover either.

Not the kind of person who is easy on the eyes.

Otherwise, I wouldn't have to open it up so high the night before.

Negotiate with her directly and ask for cooperation.

No, whose cooperation is like yours?
Not even any foreshadowing?
Just show your hand right away?

Is it true that there is really no other tricks except sincerity?

But, in fact, Zi Nu's worries were completely unnecessary, because Ye Qingcang quite appreciated Wei Zhuang's speaking style.

He smiled and asked, "Will her identity affect her appearance here?"

The room was quiet for a moment.

Until Wei Zhuang spoke.

The tense atmosphere finally dissipated.

"Of course it doesn't affect me." Wei Zhuang said truthfully, "I'm just curious!"
