A middle-aged man, accompanied by a group of subordinates, strode in arrogantly, showing no respect whatsoever for the host or the Crown Prince of Beixuan.
The atmosphere at the table instantly fell silent.
Wu Lianhe seemed oblivious to the unusual atmosphere. He strode over with a smile and said, "Your Highness, Crown Prince of Beixuan, it was my oversight not to host a welcome banquet for you immediately. It was my fault."
The Crown Prince looked at him coolly and said, "Is that so? I was discussing the matter of Yunzhou with the envoy. Has the envoy arrived because he has found the mastermind behind the Yunzhou case and wants to give Yunzhou an explanation?"
To everyone's surprise, Wulianhe nodded and said, "That's right, I came here precisely for this matter."
"Oh?" The Crown Prince raised an eyebrow, and Ying Yufu also looked at the person with curiosity.
Wulianhe exuded a powerful aura, dressed in magnificent attire, displaying an air of absolute dominance, as if he considered himself the ruler of the Southern Barbarians.
"I am also deeply saddened by what happened in Yunzhou. I never imagined that some petty person would be so audacious as to refine the Nine-Headed Gu in Yunzhou. When I heard about it, my heart was broken."
Wulianhe sighed, his voice filled with genuine emotion, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Xiao Dian said in Ying Yufu's mind: "Host, he didn't lie. He was truly heartbroken. He was really in pain when he received the news that the Nine-Headed Gu of Yunzhou had been burned to ashes."
However, he has already prepared a second batch of Nine-Headed Gu refining plans, and has chosen the three border cities of Wuhai, Wuzhu, and Sentu.
He had already secretly arranged for people to take advantage of the chaos in the three border cities that Bei Xuan had just taken over, so that the loss of people could be blamed on Bei Xuan.
The most dangerous place is often the safest place.
Ying Yufu silently gasped, and for a moment, her eyes were filled with admiration as she looked at Wulianhe.
This person is truly rebellious, and his rebellion is both wicked and vicious.
The Crown Prince also overheard Xiao Dian's conversation with Ying Yufu, and he immediately felt disgusted by Wulianhe.
He said coldly, "The petty person that Envoy Wu mentioned, could it be Envoy Wu himself?"
Wu Lianhe said, "Your Highness the Crown Prince of Beixuan is joking. As the Left Envoy of the Southern Barbarians, how could I be such a petty person?"
The Crown Prince has already captured the masterminds behind the creation of the Nine-Headed Gu; they are none other than Lan Yan and Xuan Feng.
These two were in charge of many matters concerning the border of Yunzhou. Even the mission to send envoys to Beixuan was entrusted to them. I never expected that these two would do such an outrageous thing behind my back all these years.
Fortunately, His Highness the Crown Prince of Beixuan has already captured them.
The atmosphere instantly became eerie.
Xiao Dian: [This person is shameless. He knows that Lan Yan and the others cannot get away, so he plans to abandon them directly. But abandoning them is not enough. He also wants to make Lan Yan and the others scapegoats.]
Although Lan Yan and the others are not innocent and were the primary executors, this Wulianhe is truly shameless!
Ying Yufu lowered her eyes, avoiding looking at Wu Lianhe, afraid that she would vomit if she looked at him for too long.
Yao Gu seemed to have anticipated Wu Lianhe's words, and kept his eyes downcast without saying anything.
Wu Lianhe sighed, "It's just a pity that the chosen one and my daughter were implicated by them and were also detained by Bei Xuan."
I have come here to ask His Highness the Crown Prince of Beixuan to release the Chosen One and my daughter.
As for the criminals like Lan Yan, they are at Bei Xuan's disposal.
Furthermore, Yunzhou suffered enormous losses, and I am willing to offer one million taels of silver as compensation.
Those lowly people of Yunzhou are fortunate enough to earn a million taels of silver for Beixuan as compensation.
The Northern Xuan people have taken advantage of the Southern Barbarians quite a bit, so they should be satisfied.
If the Crown Prince of Beixuan is sensible, he should go with the flow.
He sighed insincerely, "Your Highness Crown Prince of Beixuan, I have truly done my best."
In the past two years, the ancestral priest has been seriously ill, and the right envoy's health has also been poor. I have been handling many affairs of the Southern Barbarians on my own, and it is inevitable that there will be some oversights.
I did not wish to see what happened in Yunzhou. If His Highness the Crown Prince of Beixuan can accept my compensation, then my Southern Barbarians and Beixuan will forever be united in friendship. I am even willing to marry my two daughters to His Highness as concubines.
My youngest daughter, Wu Lingduo, is in the hands of His Highness the Crown Prince. As for my eldest daughter…”
Ying Yufu's lips twitched.
Wu Linggu, who was sitting quietly next to Shangguan Fei, had a slight change in expression.
Sure enough, the next moment, Wu Lianhe called her name: "Ling Gu, since you have come back alive and are with the people of Bei Xuan, you must have already met His Highness the Crown Prince of Bei Xuan."
What's wrong? You've made new friends, and now you don't even greet your father anymore?
Wu Linggu stood up and looked at Wu Lianhe with a dark expression.
Yao Gu looked at Wu Ling Gu with a complicated expression. This girl was one of the best among the younger generation in the Southern Barbarians, and her Golden Snake Gu was the first of its kind since the Witch Ancestor.
Whether judged by talent or birth, she is undoubtedly the Holy Maiden of the Southern Barbarians, and even more so, the successor to the next Witch Ancestor.
But... her destiny was too vague for him to see clearly.
Moreover, she is a member of the Wu family.
"Wu Shi, are you really my father?" Wu Linggu asked.
Everyone was taken aback, and Yao Gu also looked at Wu Ling Gu in surprise.
Wulianhe's face immediately darkened, and he angrily said, "Agu, you've come back from your trip, and you really don't even recognize your father anymore?"
Wu Linggu looked at him and described her ordeal as simply going out for a trip; she should have felt sorrowful.
But now all I can do is accept it.
She said with absolute certainty, "You are not my father. I am the baby you stole. My real surname should be Yao!"
"Wu Linggu!" Wu Lianhe's face was extremely ugly. He was still unaware that Wu Lingduo had already told Wu Linggu the truth.
Lan Yan and the others hadn't had a chance to tell Wu Lianhe what Wu Linggu already knew.
boom!
Nearby, Yao Gu suddenly stood up, accidentally knocking the teacup off the table.
Yao Gu looked at Wu Ling Gu in a daze, then at Wu Lian He, and asked in a trembling voice, "Wu Lian He, what exactly is going on?"
"Did she really steal from my Yao family?"
Wulianhe immediately denied it: "I don't know where she heard that she would deny even her own father..."
Wu Linggu said, "It was Wu Lingduo who told me this herself, and High Priest Lan Yan and others also admitted it. Back in Beixuan, they even personally appointed Wu Lingduo as a saintess and wanted to kill me."
The Crown Prince then said, "Both I and Anguo can testify to this matter. If Envoy Wu does not believe me, I can have someone bring Wu Lingduo here so she can speak for herself."
Wu Lianhe's face was grim. He hadn't expected Wu Lingduo to be so useless as to reveal such a thing.
There are also people like Lan Yan, who are more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything.
Wulianhe's face was grim, his heart filled with hatred.
Yao Gu said, "It's actually very simple. We just need to use the Bloodline Gu to verify it."
Yao Gu's voice trembled as he ordered someone to bring the Bloodline Gu.
Before long, a servant from the Yao family brought over a box containing two white Gu worms.
All you need to do is let the two bloodline Gu consume the blood of Yao Gu and Wu Ling Gu respectively. If the two Gu merge into one, they will be biological father and daughter.
If the two Gu turn the same red color, it means they are related by blood.
If the two Gu do not react at all, then they are not related by blood.
The Southern Barbarians were clearly very familiar with this, and Yao Gu and Wu Ling Gu fed their blood to the two Gu respectively.
