Chapter 433 - Informing the State Minister
Chapter 433: Informing the State Minister
In the afternoon.
In the deep mountains of Wen Shan Village.
Looking at the ground full of bones, the few of them had an indescribable feeling.
These should be the commoners who wanted to escape from the village.
“Right in front.”
General Tang pointed not far away and said in a low voice, “Lord Chunyu and Lord Xiahou should be inside.”
Looking at Qing Yi and Lan Yi, who were standing outside the cave, Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows.
Shangguan Dian could not help but click his tongue and complain. “How can ancient Mythical Beasts be reduced to being watchdogs? How degrading.”
Chu Sihan looked at General Tang. “General Tang, go down the mountain and hide.”
“Okay!”
General Tang knew that a fight between immortals was not something a mortal like him could watch.
If he was not careful, he would be reduced to ashes.
They watched General Tang leave before returning their gaze to the hole.
“Master, should we kill our way in?”
Lu Sheng observed the front and asked softly.
“There’s no hurry. Let’s take a look first.”
This mountain would probably be lost if he fought Chunyu Dong.
“Why don’t I go closer and take a look?”
Lu Sheng took out her Invisibility Talisman and spoke again.
“No.”
Lu Zhou said in a low voice, “Your Invisibility Talisman can’t hide from Qing Yi and Lan Yi’.”
Those two were ancient Mythical Beasts. As for the little girl, she had a mortal body now. It would be alright if she was further away. If she were to get close, she would definitely be discovered.
“Qing Yi and Lan Yi?”
Lu Sheng’s lips twitched. “Those are really their names?”
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “Isn’t it obvious?”
“No… You can’t just call everyone who wears green clothes Qing Yi and everyone who wears blue clothes Lan Yi, right? Who gave such casual names?”
Shangguan Dian chuckled. “You have to ask your master.”
Lu Sheng was stunned. “Master, did you give these names?”
Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow. “Do I look like someone who would use those names?”
“Yes!” Lu Sheng nodded.
Such an unreliable way of naming was indeed very similar to her master’s style.
Lu Zhou: “…Treat it that I didn’t ask.”
Shangguan Dian smiled and said, “It’s not he looks like, but he did give them those names.”
Back then, when they, Chunyu Dong, and the King of Hades were drinking, Chunyu Dong suddenly had a thought and said that he wanted to give the two Mythical Beasts names.
Hence, Lu Zhou glanced at Azure Dragon and Kirin lightly and casually said those two names.
Unexpectedly, Chunyu Dong agreed immediately after hearing that. From then on, the domineering Azure Dragon and Kirin were known as Qing Yi and Lan Yi.
When the smiling Shangguan Dian received Lu Zhou’s cold gaze, his smile froze. He quickly coughed and wiped his smile.
When Lu Zhou saw this, he retracted his gaze in satisfaction.
Lu Sheng and Chu Sihan looked at each other and smiled secretly.
Netherworld looked at the four of them in confusion.
At that moment, a few people walked out of the cave in an uproar. Qing Yi and Lan Yi cupped their hands to the man in the lead and greeted him as master.
The man was wearing the same black clothes as Shangguan Dian. He looked to be in his thirties and was tall and slender. His face was cold and handsome.
The person who walked out with him was an old man. He must be the Xiahou Tang General Tang mentioned.
This Xiahou Tang was even older than imagined.
“Oh right, Master. Can you contact the State Minister?”
Seeing Xiahou Tang, Lu Sheng thought of the State Minister again.
“Brother White Lotus?”
Lu Zhou frowned. “Why would you mention him for no reason?”
Chu Sihan nodded secretly.
Lu Sheng kept mentioning the State Minister, which made him very unhappy.
It seemed like he was not the only one who was unhappy.
“Didn’t I tell you about the demons in the capital?”
Lu Sheng said in a low voice, “This Xiahou Tang wanted to become the State Minister, which was why he used Chi Ming to try and finish off the State Minister.”
“Him?”
Lu Zhou looked disdainful. “He’s still far from replacing Brother White Lotus.”
Although the State Minister’s cultivation level was not as high as his and Shangguan Dian’s, it was more than enough to crush Xiahou Tang.
Lu Sheng pouted. “The State Minister seemed to have gone to find him the last time. I don’t know if he did find him or his heart softened and he let him off.”
“Oh?”
Lu Zhou raised his eyebrows and smiled. “In that case, I want to ask him.”
He took out the Communications Talisman, made a seal with his fingers, and tapped it twice.
After a long silence, a cold voice was heard.
“Peak Master Lu, what can I do for you?”
Lu Zhou smiled and said, “Brother White Lotus, long time no see. I miss you!”
After a moment of silence, the State Minister’s voice was heard again.
“Peak Master Lu, please speak frankly.”
“It’s not a big deal.” Lu Zhou pondered and said, “I heard from my disciple that Brother White Lotus is looking for Grand Tutor Xiahou?”
In the capital, at Pure Snow Observatory.
When the State Minister heard this, his expression paused before he hurriedly asked, “Does Peak Master Lu know where this person is?”
After suspecting that Xiahou Tang was a beast tamer, he went to visit him.
Unexpectedly, someone from Xiahou Mansion told him that Xiahou Tang was sent out of the capital that night due to his worsening illness.
No one in Xiahou Mansion knew where he went.
After that, he waited in the capital for some time, but there was still no news of Xiahou Tang.
This also made him understand that Xiahou Tang probably already knew that he wanted to settle scores with him, so he left the capital at night.
“Of course.”
Lu Zhou said lightly, “Lin Jiang Mansion’s Yong Fu Town, in the deep mountains of Wen Shan Village. Come over quickly.”
Then, he cut off the connection.
The State Minister kept his Communications Talisman.
After confirming the address, he tore open the void and walked in.
He just had to walk out from the hole.
Everyone outside the cave was stunned by the State Minister’s sudden appearance.
Instantly, the State Minister could only stare at the others.
On Lu Sheng’s side, everyone held their foreheads.
Lu Zhou clicked his tongue. “With Brother White Lotus’ luck, he’ll definitely win the lottery.”
There were so many spots for him to appear in such a huge mountain. It was impressive that he would appear at the entrance of someone’s cave.
“State… State Minister!”
Xiahou Tang widened his eyes and hid behind Chunyu Dong.
“You’re the State Minister?”
Chunyu Dong sized him up for a while before suddenly raising his eyebrows and smiling. “Brother White Lotus, long time no see. I didn’t expect you to come to Xuan Yue Country to be the State Minister.”
The State Minister replied expressionlessly, “Same to you.”
Chunyu Dong was stunned before he burst into laughter.
“We haven’t seen each other for so many years. Why don’t we find a place to sit down and have a drink?”
“No need.”
The State Minister looked at him indifferently and said, “Your old friend should be nearby. If you want to catch up, you shouldn’t have looked for me.”
Chunyu Dong was stunned and his eyes narrowed.
“Damn!”
Lu Zhou couldn’t help but swear.
This fellow was too insincere. He had told him Xiahou Tang’s whereabouts but he had betrayed him immediately. He was too much!
“Master, are you going out?” Lu Sheng asked.
“No.”
Lu Zhou snorted coldly. “If I don’t go out, would he be able to find me?”
