Aunt, please don't chase me. I don't want to be the emperor.

It is under the double devastation of You Xinqin and the current situation of the Jin family that Jin Shun is so desperate.

But at this moment, the door of the interrogation room was suddenly slammed open, as if it was hit directly by a huge object.

Jin Shun looked up when he heard the sound, but he did not see any huge object outside the door, but a person standing there.

This man was wearing a gray Taoist robe and looked like a Taoist priest. He was about fifty years old, with long hair and a beard, giving people an ordinary feeling.

However, the spiritual power fluctuations emanating from this person were extremely powerful, and instantly made Jin Shun, who was in a daze, become alert.

"You...who are you?"

"He Ren."

The Taoist priest in gray robe introduced himself.

He Ren, the eleventh national guardian god among the former Daxuan rebels, is a master who is on par with Lu Zhanfei.

It was this person who broke into the Sky Fox Guard's headquarters. Although the Sky Fox Guards were all elite secret guards of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they were clearly no match for the Yang God. He Ren, however, was a formation cultivator skilled in unorthodox methods, which allowed him to infiltrate the Sky Fox Guard's headquarters without a trace.

When he heard the other party call himself He Ren, Jin Shun, who had originally looked desperate, suddenly became excited: "You, no, you are He Ren, the national guardian god of Daxuan. Great, it was King Liang who sent you, right? Quick, save me!"

Jin Shun and his confidants have been trying to break into the Sword Tomb for years, following the coordinates provided by the Taibai Map, but they have never been able to enter. So Jin Shun planned to find help, but he naturally couldn't ask the Great Zhou for help. After all, there were too many suspicious points about him, and he was afraid that he would be exposed if he was not careful.

So the helpers he finally found were the remnants of the Daxuan Party, which is why He Ren appeared here.

Su Luoxue interrupted the interrogation because she was in a hurry to save Ji Xian, so Jin Shun did not have time to confess about these things.

Facing Jin Shun's anxious request, He Ren was extremely indifferent: "Don't worry, Jin Fuyin, first tell me what happened to your Jin family and why you were captured and brought to the Tianhu Guard branch."

"this......"

For a moment, Jin Shun was speechless, and his expression looked as if he had eaten a fly.

Seeing Jin Shun's appearance, He Ren's slightly old face showed displeasure.

In fact, He Ren arrived in Jiangdu just after it got dark. When he got to Jin's house, he found that most of the people inside had run away. So he arrested a servant and questioned him, and learned that Jin Shun had actually been captured by the Da Zhou Secret Guard!

So, He Ren immediately planned to go to the Tianhu Guard branch to rescue people, but after a while he sensed the sound of a piano coming from the branch. Although the distance was too far and it could not cause any harm to him, it still shocked him greatly.

This kind of attainment in piano playing is probably not from an ordinary master, and may even be one of the Yang Gods of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Because he was worried about the presence of a Yang Shen in the Sky Fox Guard branch, He Ren could only wait outside the branch to see if he could find the right opportunity to enter and rescue them. But he was also worried that Jin Shun might reveal the secrets about the Taibai Map.

Later, a fight broke out in the city, and Su Luoxue immediately left the branch to rescue the situation. He Ren then found an opportunity to enter the branch to rescue people.

So, this scene happened now.

Jin Shun was hanging from the ceiling, hesitating and unable to speak a complete sentence. When he came to his senses and wanted to quibble or cover up, he realized that his hesitation was already telling.

When Jin Shun looked at He Ren, he found that He Ren's face had also become very ugly and his eyes had become quite cold.

"You confessed everything about the Taibai Map, right?"

He Ren's tone was very cold.

Knowing that it was useless to defend himself, Jinshun finally admitted: "Yes... yes."

“How many have you recruited?”

"Poor, almost all..."

"Including the location of the Taibai map?"

"Yes, it is……"

"In that case, there's no need for you to live anymore."

"Wait, wait a minute, I'm still valuable. I know the location of the sword tomb. Even without the Taibai map, I can still...Aa ...

Jin Shun also tried to show his worth and wanted to seize the opportunity to survive.

But for He Ren, Jin Shun's survival posed a greater risk to them.

Then, Jin Shun's shrill screams resounded throughout the interrogation room.

There was a formation restriction set up in the interrogation room, and no one outside knew about it.

2.28 His Majesty the Emperor serves as a slave to his aunt

In the end, Su Luoxue didn't care too much about Jin Shun's death. His life was worthless anyway, and the most important information had already been obtained.

In comparison, it is more regrettable that those Sky Fox Guards were killed.

Moreover, compared to the person behind the silencing of Jin Shun, it is more important to quickly take back the Taibai map from Dieying and find out who is behind Dieying.

So Su Luoxue ordered the Sky Fox Guards around her, "Notify the Sky Fox Guards and the Jiangdu garrison to intensify the search outside Jiangdu and not miss any clues."

Judging from how much Jin Shun valued the Taibai Map, they certainly didn't want him to be too far away from the treasure. In other words, the treasure on the Taibai Map was likely somewhere near Jiangdu!

It’s a pity that Jin Shun is dead now, otherwise we could let him lead the way directly.

Su Luoxue has a very smart mind, and her thinking speed and analytical ability are also excellent. She analyzed all of this clearly in a short while.

As for Ji Xian, he is actually very smart, but he usually stays with Su Luoxue, and with her around, Ji Xian is too lazy to use his brain.

Ji Xian also looked thoughtful now, and what she was thinking was similar to Su Luoxue's.

Su Luoxue noticed Ji Xian's thoughtful look and found it quite rare: "Have you thought of anything?"

"how do you know?"

"I can tell from your expression."

Su Luoxue knew Ji Xian too well and knew what he was thinking at a glance.

There might be an information gap between herself and Ji Xian, so Ji Xian might have thought of more. Su Luoxue had already thought of this.

Ji Xian didn't hide it either: "Now that Dieying and the others have obtained the Taibai Map, they will probably find the employer immediately and dig out the treasure as quickly as possible to avoid any more trouble, right?"

"If it were me, I would do the same." Su Luoxue said.

"So their destination now is most likely the treasure coordinates on the Taibai map, right?"

"Yes, judging by the importance the Jin family places on the Taibai Map, it's very likely to be in the Jiangdu area."

"I've seen the Taibai map." Ji Xian said with a confident tone, "I still remember that map."

Su Luoxue was startled when she heard this, but she didn't hesitate for a moment and said without a pause, "I'll ask someone to get you a pen and paper."

Ji Xian and Su Luoxue grew up together and knew each other very well. Therefore, Su Luoxue was very clear about Ji Xian's talents and abilities, and knew several special abilities besides his cultivation talent.

For example, his unrivaled perception and photographic memory are mostly blood talents inherited from his mother, Tang Lin.

No matter what it is or what the content is, as long as Ji Xian is serious about it, he will never forget it after taking a look at it.

For example, when he was a child, he would read the martial arts manuals he was given once and memorize and learn them immediately, without needing to read them again. Another example is the storybooks or booklets that the Zhou goddess Yelu Yinxue brought him. Ji Xian would memorize the entire book and recite it backwards after just one reading.

The reason why the ministers in the court thought Ji Xian was a piece of mud and a complete waste was simply because Ji Xian always acted like a loser and had a heartless attitude. It wasn't that he couldn't remember many of the things she said to him, but that they went in one ear and out the other without taking them seriously.

As long as he has a serious attitude and a positive and progressive mindset, he will be a wise ruler.

Unfortunately, he didn't. He still chose to give up and let himself go.

........

Soon, Su Luoxue asked someone to bring paper and pen, and Ji Xian started painting on the spot, gradually redrawing the Taibai picture according to her memory.

The first thing was the coordinates. Although Ji Xian didn't understand where the coordinates were, she thought she should be able to find clues from the map of Yangzhou, so she decided to draw it by copying it.

Then came the internal map of the treasure house. Although Ji Xian only took a quick look at it, she still remembered it and drew it again in great detail.

Soon, Ji Xian drew a picture of Taibai made on the spot.

Su Luoxue took the new Taibai map, looked at it, and then asked someone to get the map of Yangzhou. She immediately compared the coordinates on it to find the location of the treasure.

Su Luoxue's ability in this area was not inferior to Ji Xian. She memorized both drawings with just a glance, then quickly compared them in her mind and found the approximate location of the treasure within a few seconds.

"Devil's City..."

Su Luoxue kept muttering about this place.

The Magic City is located in the east of Yangzhou, very close to Pinghai Port in the eastern border. It is a large capital city relatively close to the coast.

According to myths and legends, three thousand years ago, a black magic dragon appeared in the sea here and was killed by an extremely powerful person at that time, so this place got the name of Demon City.

The prosperity of the Magic City is not much inferior to that of Jiangdu, and because it is close to the border, the defense level is very high. If something happens in Pinghai Port, the heavy garrison of the Magic City can rush to support it immediately.

If you ride fast from Jiangdu to Shanghai, you can reach there in two days. The distance is really close.

The treasure spot discovered by Su Luoxue is in the Magic City!

Su Luoxue immediately ordered: "Send a message to the Sky Fox Guards and the Jiangdu garrison to follow me to the Magic City to hunt down Die Ying!"

"Yes!"

The messenger immediately retreated to deliver the order.

The heavy troops in Modu are used to guard against the alien races in the East China Sea. It is best not to act rashly. If the situation permits, it is better to dispatch the troops from Jiangdu.

The reason for mobilizing troops wasn't because Su Luoxue was afraid of Cheng Ying and the puppet. After all, if she and Ji Xian joined forces, Cheng Ying would have to multitask: fight while controlling the puppet to counter the other's attacks, which would definitely reduce his strength and coordination.

What Su Luoxue was really worried about was the leader of Dieying, Cheng Longjiu, the former twelfth national god of Daxuan!

Cheng Longjiu is one of the most powerful people in the world today. In terms of strength, he can even rival her father Yin Longshuai, and will definitely not lose to any master who is still alive.

Although Su Luoxue only encountered Cheng Ying and the puppet in Jiangdu this time, no one can guarantee that Cheng Longjiu will not show up, especially when Ji Xian and Su Luoxue's identities are exposed.

This was also the reason why Su Luoxue was anxious to find Ji Xian at the beginning. She was afraid that Ji Xian would alarm Cheng Longjiu, which would be disastrous.

Currently, the Seven Marshals of the Great Zhou are not in Jiangdu and Modu. Now the situation is urgent, Dieying may have already set off for the treasure trove of Taibaitu, and there is no time to wait for their support.

Although there are Great Zhou Protector Gods stationed in Pinghai Port and Xishan City, their strength would be of no help if they were to encounter Cheng Longjiu. Furthermore, both locations are on guard against the foreign tribes of the East China Sea, so it's best not to mobilize them.

Therefore, Su Luoxue could only dispatch local garrisons and elite secret guards to act together to make up for the lack of combat power with military force.

Although she might not meet Cheng Longjiu, Su Luoxue is a cautious person and she wants to eliminate all risks.

In terms of strategy and judgment in this area, Su Luoxue is more professional than Ji Xian. It's not that Ji Xian is incompetent, but as I said, with Su Luoxue by his side, he is too lazy to think about these things.

Look, when Su Luoxue gave the order, Ji Xian smiled without saying a word.

Su Luoxue glanced at him and said, "You smile like a slave."

"I am your slave."

"......"

Su Luoxue was silent for a while, then reached out and grabbed his face, then pulled it down hard.

“Ahhhhhh, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!!”

"You are the Emperor, please speak properly and seriously!"

"Ahhh, how can you treat the emperor like this? Ouch, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

......

So after a while, Ji Xian and Su Luoxue quickly led an elite army of more than 10,000 people, left from the east gate of Jiangdu, and headed straight for the Demon City, without stopping for almost a moment.

2.29 His Majesty the Emperor asked his aunt to cook for him

After the restoration of the Great Zhou, the remaining forces of the Daxuan rebels fell apart.

Most of the officers, soldiers, and officials were former members of the Great Zhou, and so after the restoration, they returned to serve the Great Zhou and continued to contribute to the peaceful and prosperous era. However, a few of the Daxuan forces who had committed crimes joined the remnants of the Daxuan faction, while others went into hiding and lived a dark life.

Of the original twelve guardian gods of Daxuan, four were killed in the war of revival, while two defected to Dazhou during the war. Among them was Qin Yuanfang, the White Horse Commander, one of the current seven generals of Dazhou.

Among the remaining six living Daxuan national gods, the Daxuan remnants headed by Zhao Si, Lu Zhanfei and He Ren are the most powerful. They have gathered a large number of Daxuan's old subordinates and are considered the number one target of attack by Da Zhou.

The ninth guardian deity, Xu Mengli, chose to stand aside and observe during the Renaissance War, and did not participate in it. However, due to his status, he was under constant surveillance by the Great Zhou, and was basically unable to set foot outside of Tianyin Island in the East China Sea.

The fourth national god, Baili Qiankun, walks alone in the world, has no intersection with any Daxuan forces, and no one knows what he wants to do.

The Butterfly Shadow Organization, led by the 12th Guardian God Cheng Longjiu, also chose to sit on the sidelines during the Restoration War, but their nature was far more formidable than Xu Mengli's. During the reign of the Great Xuan, they had killed countless people, including Emperor Xingzong's relatives and friends. Furthermore, after the restoration of the Great Zhou, the Butterfly Shadow Organization continued to engage in rampant assassinations. How could the Great Zhou let them go?

However, among the several remaining forces that split from Daxuan, they are actually the most difficult to deal with.

Because even during the Daxuan period, Dieying was always active in the dark, not needing any help or support from Daxuan. They helped Daxuan overthrow Dazhou at that time purely because they needed chaos and killing, nothing more.

Such an organization is far more terrifying than the other scattered forces in Daxuan.

........

At this time, the team led by Ji Xian and Su Luoxue had already rushed to Modu from Jiangdu, and was currently conducting a large-scale search in the suburban forest area northwest of Modu, hoping to find the treasure place according to the coordinates indicated on the Taibai map.
