Qin Shi: I went astray in the Heavenly Sect

Chapter 77: Different Ways, Don’t Conspire with Each Other
Hopefully, we'll find something of value!

Watching Wei Zhuang's departing figure, Zi Nu sighed softly. The Baiyue Kingdom and the Han and Chu Kingdoms had a deep-seated grudge, and Tian Ze's escape at this time was not a good thing for the Han Kingdom.

Han Fei looked out the window, his eyes filled with deep caution.

Although Tianze hasn't caused any trouble yet, he has a feeling that this prince of Baiyue is not as simple as the rumors suggest.

Then, as if remembering something, he asked Zi Nu softly, "By the way, Miss Zi Nu, does Zi Lan Xuan also entertain children?"

Zi Nu was taken aback, but then she realized that there was only one person in Zi Lan Xuan who could be called a child.

After thinking for a moment, she replied, "Zilanxuan welcomes all guests. As long as the guest can afford it, we have no reason to turn them away."

Han Fei nodded.

"That makes sense, but I'm a little curious, who is that little guy? Doesn't his family care about him coming to a place like this?"

Sitting to the side, Zhang Liang was both amused and exasperated by Han Fei's words. His Ninth Prince was no better; now he was starting to worry about others.

Speaking of that young man, a smile flashed in Zi Nu's eyes. He had been at Zi Lan Xuan for several days, but had never done anything out of line. He was just temporarily staying there, and spent most of his time reading. In her mind, this little guy was far more reliable than someone like Han Fei.

Seeing the probing look in Han Fei's eyes, Zi Nu sighed softly in her heart. This Ninth Young Master was meticulous. Now that he had noticed the existence of this young man, some things probably couldn't be kept secret for long.

Of course, based on her understanding, the young man didn't care about these things. After thinking for a moment, Zi Nu said, "Young master, it's best if you don't get interested in him."

Han Fei quickly collected his thoughts and looked at Zi Nu.

"Oh? What makes you say that, Miss Zi Nu?"

Zi Nu's lips curled into a mischievous smile, and her slightly playful voice came over again.

"It was he who suggested that if we wanted to revitalize Korea, we should first get rid of your father."

Han Fei's eyelids twitched, and he subconsciously swallowed.

"Miss Zi Nu, you're not joking, are you?"

Zi Nu turned to look at Han Fei, raised an eyebrow, and gave him a look of anticipation.

"What do you think??"

Han Fei rubbed his nose; who knows what his reaction was when he heard Zi Nu's words?

Kill his own father?

What kind of utterly rebellious thought could possibly arise? In his memory, even Wei Zhuang had never had such a lawless idea.

"I want to see him."

Zi Nu frowned slightly. This was an answer that was somewhat unexpected. Wei Zhuang had said before that the young man's path was different from theirs. As the saying goes, those who have different paths cannot work together. So why did Han Fei want to see him?
"That's not something I can decide. He's also a guest of Zilan Pavilion. I can only ask him for you."

Upon hearing this answer, Han Fei nodded slightly.

"Then I'll have to trouble Miss Zi Nu."

Time passed slowly, and night quietly fell. Wei Zhuang, who was standing on a gate tower, suddenly opened his eyes.

His gaze was fixed on the direction of the General's Mansion. A dark figure shot out from the mansion at great speed, like an arrow released from a bow, heading towards the south of Xinzheng City.

A smirk played on his lips. The hunter released his hounds hoping to see results, not to let them disappear without a trace.

He lightly touched the ground with his foot and then followed.

In the south of Xinzheng City, in front of a very secluded bungalow, Mo Ya slowly emerged from the shadows. He stood before the door, his brow slightly furrowed, and then a pebble shot from his hand, striking the door and causing it to swung open. Mo Ya stood there for a while, but there was no movement from inside. He hesitated for a moment, then stepped inside.

About thirty breaths later, Mo Ya came out again, his expression more gloomy. He turned around and looked at the room again, then with a light step, he rose up again and headed straight for the General's Mansion.

Not long after he left, Wei Zhuang, with his white hair, arrived at the scene. Looking at the few corpse gu that had been trampled to death on the ground, a strange smile appeared on his lips.

Clearly, this place had been inhabited before, but the person had left. Judging from the smell inside the house, he could tell that the person had been gone for at least three days. As for who was inside, he had already made a simple judgment based on the corpse-eating insect.

After leaving the general's mansion, Mo Ya went straight here, clearly having received prior notification. Based on this intelligence, Wei Zhuang could easily conclude that his and Han Fei's previous guesses were correct, and Tian Ze's escape was indeed related to Ji Wuye.

However, judging from the current situation, Tianze doesn't seem to intend to obey orders.

"Interesting, it seems things are getting out of control?"

Wei Zhuang then turned and left. Although he hadn't gotten the information he wanted today, it was better than nothing.

The fourth floor of Zilanxuan.

In a spacious room, Han Fei, Zi Nu, Zhang Liang, and Nong Yu were all present, but there was one more person besides them, or rather, a young boy.

"Nice to meet you. My name is Han Fei, and I am the Ninth Prince of the State of Han."

Han Fei greeted the other person with a smile.

The boy replied simply.

“Cultivating affinity.”

Although he had heard some information from Zi Nu, he was still somewhat amused and exasperated by Chen Xiuyuan's answer.

"Hey, aren't you going to introduce yourself or what your background is?"

Seeing Han Fei acting silly, Zi Nu covered her mouth and chuckled.

"I'm sorry, I don't have any identity that I'm particularly proud of. Like most people, I'm just an ordinary member of the masses."

Han Fei was taken aback. He scratched his head, feeling slightly embarrassed. He swore that the introduction of the Ninth Prince of Han was just a simple one and he had no intention of showing off.

"I heard from Miss Zi Nu that the young master wishes to see me."

Despite his young age, he possessed a calm and unwavering demeanor, and this calmness was not feigned. Almost instantly, Han Fei was certain that the young man before him was no ordinary person.

"What is your purpose in coming to Xinzheng?"

Chen Xiuyuan frowned. It was that same question again. He seemed to have asked Wei Zhuang the same question the last time he saw him.

They both seemed to prefer getting straight to the point.

"To be honest, I don't really want to answer this question. A guy named Wei Zhuang asked me the same question before. He's probably your teammate, right?"

Han Fei was taken aback, then he looked at Zi Nu and saw that she was secretly laughing. He shrugged helplessly.

“He is indeed my companion, but he said I should not see you because your path is different from ours, but I feel I should see you.”

Hearing this, Chen Xiuyuan was somewhat surprised, but then he understood. Wei Zhuang was right; his path was indeed different from the other party's.

Those who walk different paths cannot make plans together.
