Chapter 1103 Xuan Nu's Killing Intent and Mysterious Arrow Token
Chapter 1103 Xuan Nu's Killing Intent and Mysterious Arrow Token
The moon was waning and the night was slightly cool outside the ancient city of Luowu, beside the maple forest.
Yi Xuan was flipping through the booklet in his hand, where the names of every woman were marked, including Ji Xuan Yan.
Behind Yi Xuan, the young master Ji Xuanyan stood facing the wind, his expression as calm as still water.
"Senior, what are you and the young master doing under this Emperor Tree?"
"Your Highness, you'll have to ask the young master or the author. I really don't know!"
"Actually, what we do is not important. What's important is to make the young master want to return to the Ji family's imperial city in Zhongzhou. What are your thoughts, senior?"
"Your Highness, I am merely the mistress of Yongqing Prefecture!"
"Haha, senior, I am merely seeking your guidance as a junior. It has nothing to do with the Ji family or the royal family!"
"This concerns the former young master of the Ji family, so I cannot say more!"
"Is that so? Senior sent his personal guards, Ghost Lone and Divine Shadow, to protect the current young master of the Ji family. Wasn't that to prevent the former young master of the Ji family from returning to the Ji family's capital city?"
Young Master Ji Xuanyan remained composed, but inwardly she was in turmoil. How could Ji Yixuan possibly know these things?
Ji Xuanyan's brows furrowed; she truly couldn't understand it.
"Senior, is this question difficult to answer?"
"The young master of the Ji family went to Yingzhou this time without any guards, so I sent Gui Gu and Shen Ying to protect him. I had no other intention than to ensure the young master's safety!"
"It's no secret that Ji Family's Holy Hidden Feather supports Patriarch Ji Qingfeng. It's perfectly reasonable for you to protect Ji Yinan, but you hesitated. I have to reconsider this matter. Perhaps you have other intentions?"
Ji Xuanyan did not respond.
"A young master who is not recognized by the royal family, senior, do you feel a sense of kinship with him?"
Ji Xuanyan frowned deeply.
"Your Highness, if there is nothing else, I shall take my leave now!"
"Senior, you've been to Jianying. Where is the Master of the Demon Extermination Hall?"
"My subordinates don't know!"
"Who secretly rescued Ji Xuanren from Zhongzhou back then?"
"My subordinates don't know!"
"Senior, forgetting some things is the best choice. Be careful not to play with fire and get burned!"
"I was born a member of the Ji family, and I will die a member of the Ji family!"
Ji Xuanyan harbored an unspeakable anger within her, which she suppressed and could not unleash!
"You said the best way to make the young master forget the martial world and willingly return to the Ji family's imperial city in Zhongzhou is..."
"I only do what is my duty!"
"Hmph, so you're unwilling to help me, senior?"
"I am a member of the Ji family, and I must abide by the rules and regulations. It is neither convenient nor permissible for me to interfere in royal affairs!"
"Very well, then we'll do it my way. The woman in this book is a hindrance to the young master's heart; she must be killed. Only through loss can one gain enlightenment. If the young master's heart doesn't ache, his path in the martial world will remain unbroken!"
Ji Xuanyan took a deep breath. She was right; Ji Yixuan really was Shen Yichen's nemesis.
"I heard that the young master died at the hands of Zhan Xiaoling in Jianying. Let Zhan Xiaoling carry out the rest of the work. Senior, who do you think should be killed first?"
“Your Highness, Zhan Xiaoling is acting under orders from the head of the Ji family. Your Highness has no right to command him, as this would violate the rules of the Ji family!”
"Senior, I'm discussing with you who to kill first!"
Ji Xuanyan chose to keep quiet.
"I've been looking around for a while, and the only one near Luowu Ancient City is the young lady of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect. Let's go with her!"
Ji Xuanyan didn't respond; her words were meaningless.
"How can the young master of the Ji family associate with the young lady of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect? When did the righteous and evil factions in the martial world become one? Notify the Arrow Slave to kill Mu Qingxue!"
Ji Xuanyan bowed slightly.
"Your Highness, I truly cannot help with this matter!"
"I won't put you in a difficult position, senior. Yongqing Prefecture still needs your presence. This should be enough!"
Ji Yixuan took out a golden token, the shape of which was exactly the same as the Returning Heart Arrow.
"The Mysterious Arrow Token... didn't it disappear along with that person?"
"Senior, your question is none of your concern, is it?"
Ji Xuanyan looked slightly surprised and accepted the Xuanjian Token.
"Your Highness, what rank of archer slaves should we employ?"
"Hmph, of course the Xuanjian Order will use the Golden Arrow Slave. Jian Yingcheng, the most powerful arrow of the Returning Heart Arrow failed to kill the young master. Will it fail again this time? If it fails, then let him die. The Ji family doesn't need such a slave!"
Ji Xuanyan bowed slightly.
"Subordinates resign!"
"Have you found out about that old woman in the Maple Forest?"
Ji Xuanyan stopped in her tracks, pondered for a moment, and then sighed softly:
"It's probably the lord of Luowu Ancient City!"
"What did you say?"
Ji Xuanyan has disappeared.
Ji Yixuan stared in horror at the Maple Forest under the night sky, muttering to herself:
"How could the lord of Luowu Ancient City possibly know Tian Xianglong?"
After a long while, a smile appeared on Ji Yixuan's lips.
“It’s getting more and more interesting!”
Shen Yichen also found it increasingly interesting, but he wasn't talking about matters of the martial world, but rather about the beautiful Mu Qingxue.
Mu Qingxue's incredibly long legs are absolutely stunning!
The night was dark and the wind was high, but the campfire was burning brightly.
"Yichen, did you sense it just now?"
"Could it be that the Demonic Spirit that you passed into my bloodline has truly formed a heart?"
Just like in Yangtan Wugu, Mu Qingxue transferred the Demonic Spirit within her body into Shen Yichen's bloodline in Wushan, and Shen Yichen's heart clearly changed.
That feeling of shared origin and resonance is so real!
Shen Yichen and Mu Qingxue were both touching Shen Yichen's chest.
"Yichen, if your heart has truly formed, then can we really have a child?"
Shen Yichen shook his head.
"Without the continuation of power, it probably won't work. If I'm not mistaken, only if the three powers in my bloodline can enter your body simultaneously will you have a chance to have a baby!"
Mu Qingxue frowned and pondered.
"You mean that the Demonic Spirit within me can only nourish your other two powers through the Demonic Spirit within you, and only in this way can these powers nurture and sustain life within me, right?"
"That should be the case. As it stands, the only people who can bear my child are members of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect, the Ji family, or the Ancient Miao Domain, and they all need to possess a special power that can be fused with the bloodline power within me!"
After a moment of contemplation, Mu Qingxue's expression brightened, and she embraced Shen Yichen, smiling as she said:
"The woman in that booklet only satisfies me, and I'm destined to bear your first child, right?"
Shen Yichen nodded.
"That really seems to be the case!"
"When will you be able to utilize the three inner forces?"
Shen Yichen shook his head.
"I need to make sure I have three hearts first. As for what to wear, I'll have to ask Aunt Qing about that!"
Why ask that stinky old woman?
Shen Yichen didn't explain, because he didn't know either.
After the two of them got dressed, they calmed down for a while before calling out to Jian Chenqing.
"Aunt Qing, you, you can come in now!"
Jian Chenqing was right outside the dilapidated temple. In reality, it didn't matter whether she went out or not, because all the windows of the temple were empty, and she could see and hear everything.
All three of them were really embarrassed!
Mu Qingxue may be bold, but she is still a woman!
"Mu girl, you really should go find Ji Qingxian!"
Shen Yichen and Mu Qingxue were puzzled.
"You old hag, are you upset? Why are you talking nonsense?"
Jian Chenqing sat by the campfire, quietly watching the flames.
"Besides being a divine doctor, Ji Qingxian also had another title: charlatan. He devoted his life to two things: medical skills and matters of the bedchamber!"
Shen Yichen and Mu Qingxue were taken aback upon hearing this.
Mu Qingxue smiled coldly:
"Yichen, I told you, Ji Qingxian is no good person!"
After Mu Qingxue finished speaking, she felt something was amiss. A moment later, she stood up and exclaimed in surprise:
"You wretched woman, what do you mean? Why should I go to Ji Qingxian?"
"What I mean is very simple: some things require skill, and being wild and crazy doesn't necessarily make something perfect!"
"Get out of here, you son of a bitch!"
Shen Yichen was truly exasperated with Jian Chenqing, this female hooligan. Wasn't she just stirring up trouble?
However, Shen Yichen had a guess in his heart: Jian Chenqing must have met Ji Qingxian. Jian Chenqing's bed skills were beyond the reach of ordinary people, otherwise he would not have fainted in Jiangwu Manor!
