#258 - Who are you saving?

An hour later, Wang Xuan and his group left.

Mo Zhu'er told everyone the whole story and her plan.

When everyone saw that heart and knew what Xia He wanted to do, they felt that Xia He was completely insane.

Even Wang Xuan, who originally thought that his junior brother was beyond saving and going further and further astray, felt that he was inhuman after hearing about Xia He's specific measures.

However, Wang Xuan still accepted the reality.

Wang Xuan further deduced Mo Zhu'er's plan, modifying and perfecting it.

Next, all they could do was wait for the day of the Zixia Grand Ceremony and follow the steps Mo Zhu'er had said.

Wang Xuan left Xu Ming's courtyard to tell the day's events to his ten most trusted elders.

Wu Yanhan also needed to deploy the three thousand Dragon-Leopard Iron Cavalry.

These three thousand Dragon-Leopard Iron Cavalry would be a significant fighting force.

Originally, Mo Zhu'er wanted to stay here.

Mo Zhu'er had told Xu Ming before to restrain himself and not be obsessed with dual cultivation.

But Mo Zhu'er found that she missed Xu Ming if she didn't dual cultivate with him for a day.

Especially after knowing Qin Qingwan's significance to Xu Ming, Mo Zhu'er felt like she was holding her breath, feeling very uncomfortable!

Mo Zhu'er could only release that breath when she dual cultivated with Xu Ming.

She even thought that Qin Qingwan hadn't even held Xu Ming's hand, but she had been intimate with the man she loved most.

Xu Ming had not spent a pleasant evening with Qin Qingwan, only dual cultivating with her, and she had tasted Xu Ming countless times.

The more Mo Zhu'er thought about it, the happier she felt.

However, today was obviously not the right time.

After discussing important matters, she also needed to hurry up and make arrangements, these few days were not the time to cultivate with Xu Ming.

But Mo Zhu'er was not in a hurry, there were still many days to come, and the most important thing now was everyone's cooperation.

After everyone left, Xu Ming sat in the courtyard, calmly watching the clouds rise and fall.

After Sheng Sheng left, the courtyard was quiet, and Xu Ming felt a bit unaccustomed.

"Forget it, I'll go get some wine."

Xu Ming stood up, intending to find Miao Feng and Yuwen Xi of Bailu Academy for a drink, and then hint that they should leave.

Xu Ming didn't know many people, and those who needed to be reminded still needed to be reminded.

Otherwise, they might die in Tianxuan Sect for nothing.

Xu Ming did meet them, and they did drink, but just as Xu Ming was about to subtly tell them that something might happen at the Zixia Grand Ceremony and that they should leave quickly, a conversation came from next to the tavern:

"It's really a pity that those brothers from the Shandao Sect died."

"Isn't it? Those brothers had only left Tianxuan Sect for a short time before they disappeared. By the time there was news, all that was seen were their corpses."

"Have you noticed that people who leave the sect these days seem to easily run into trouble."

"It should be the Demonic Sect trying to cause trouble, ambushing near Tianxuan Sect."

"That's right, hasn't Tianxuan Sect issued an announcement? It says that it's best not to go out during the Zixia Grand Ceremony period, and to wait until the grand ceremony three days later. After three days, Tianxuan Sect will personally clean up the area next to Tianxuan Sect."

"These Demonic Sects are really getting more and more arrogant!"

Listening to everyone's conversation, Xu Ming's hand holding the wine glass became more and more forceful, and his brow furrowed slightly.

"Brother Xu, what's wrong? Is there something on your mind?" Yuwen Xi asked curiously when he saw Xu Ming like this.

Miao Feng also said, "If Brother Xu has anything, you can tell us directly, we can be considered to have a life-or-death friendship."

"I did think of some things, but it's not a big deal, come, drink, drink." Xu Ming raised his glass and clinked it with the two.

The more Xu Ming drank, the heavier his thoughts became.

In their opinion, those who left Tianxuan Sect were killed by the Demonic Sect, but in Xu Ming's opinion, that was not the case.

Those disciples who left the sect were very likely killed by Xia He.

Xia He suspected that the two cultivators at San Shi Peak at that time would take the opportunity to leave Tianxuan Sect, so adhering to the principle of rather killing the wrong person than letting one go, he killed all those cultivators, creating a barrier.

In addition, because Xia He needed to use cultivators for blood sacrifice, the more cultivators the better, so Xia He had to create the illusion that there was danger outside, so that the disciples in Tianxuan Sect would try not to go out.

At this time, if he let Yuwen Xi and Miao Feng leave, the ones who died on the road might be Yuwen Xi and the others.

And what he was most worried about was Ren, who was escorting Sheng Sheng away, he didn't know if something would happen.

The three drank until they were half-drunk, and Xu Ming excused himself that he still had some things to do, so he left first.

Xu Ming went directly to Wu Yanhan's courtyard.

And Wu Yanhan seemed to know that Xu Ming was coming, and was already waiting for him at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Why do you smell of wine?" Wu Yanhan frowned and asked.

"I had a drink with a few friends from Bailu Academy." Xu Ming explained, shaking off the smell of wine, and looked at the girl in front of him, "Who are you waiting for?"

"Waiting for you." Wu Yanhan said calmly.

Xu Ming also smiled, suddenly feeling relieved: "It seems you know why I'm looking for you."

Wu Yanhan rolled her eyes at Xu Ming, turned and walked back to the courtyard: "Come in."

Xu Ming followed Wu Yanhan into the courtyard.

The two sat in the courtyard, at this time Wu Yanhan was wearing a nightgown, which looked very thin and cool, but you couldn't see any exposed skin.

"I know what you're worried about, it's just that you're worried that Ren and Sheng Sheng will have an accident.

You don't have to worry, Ren sent me a message, she has already taken Sheng Sheng to Anyang County in our Wu Kingdom, and the magistrate of Anyang County has even sent a thousand Anyang cavalry to escort Sheng Sheng back.

But your worries are not unreasonable, they did encounter an assassination on the way, fortunately I also called five hundred Dragon-Leopard Iron Cavalry to follow, and there was also a Yuanyou Realm expert in the army, so they didn't let the other party succeed."

"Thank you." Xu Ming thanked sincerely.

"Do you know what I hate most about you?" Wu Yanhan glared at Xu Ming.

"What?" Xu Ming raised his head.

"It's you saying thank you to me from time to time." Wu Yanhan said unhappily, "Not to mention that I also like Sheng Sheng very much, Sheng Sheng is like my sister, I will take good care of her."

"Tha-"

"Hmm?"

Just as Xu Ming was about to thank her again, Wu Yanhan glared at Xu Ming.

"I owe you a favor." Xu Ming changed his words, and no longer said "thank you".

Wu Yanhan: "Is your favor valuable?"

Xu Ming: "Maybe."

"Hehe." Wu Yanhan sneered a few times, "Let's not talk about your favor, I have a question I want to ask you."

Xu Ming: "You say."

"If on the day of the Zixia Grand Ceremony, you and Qin Qingwan were both about to die, and you could only save one person, who would you save?"
