Volume 1: The Human World: Phoenix Rising in Fire Chapter 128: The Ambiguity Heats Up (2)
They were all lone wolves, and other than working with Gu Yue, she had almost no experience in teamwork.
Individual combat is a test of personal ability.
She can destroy an entire army by herself!
But with a team...
Isn't Xuanyun Sect a place for cultivation? Why does it have such perverted rules?
Seeing her depressed face for a moment, Jiaruo couldn't help but laugh. It's not easy! It's really not easy to see this woman in trouble!
"Haha, don't worry. If you and Long Qianyu were assigned to the same team, you wouldn't have to worry at all!" Jiaruo said gloatingly.
Hua Xi glared at her. This girl really deserves a beating!
With the odds against several hundred people, how could she possibly take the gamble?
"Can't you cheat for me a bit?" Hua Xi asked shamelessly.
"This is a tradition that has been passed down by the Xuanyun Sect for thousands of years. No one can destroy it!" Jiruo spread his hands, indicating that there was no way.
"Get out!" Hua Xi immediately ordered them to leave.
"I haven't had my tea yet!" said Jiaruo dissatisfiedly.
Just then, Ling'er came in with the brewed golden needles and silver dew. When Hua Xi saw it, he stuffed the teapot into his arms.
"Go back and drink!"
Jiaruo stood there blankly holding the teapot, and then became angry. "What a heartless girl!"
"How much is conscience per pound? Sell it to me?" Hua Xi raised her eyebrows. Talking to her about conscience? It would be better to talk to her about how much cabbage costs per pound!
Sometimes, conscience is not worth even cabbage !
After all, cabbage is edible!
Can conscience do that?
After Hua Xi finished speaking, he turned around and strode back to his room. Jia Ruo was so angry that he gritted his teeth and almost jumped up and down. In the end, he had no choice but to leave.
"Miss, why is that man so shameless?"
Ling'er walked in, thinking about Jiaruo's look just now, and still wanted to laugh.
She had never seen Jieruo and didn't know his identity. She just thought he was a very young child.
"He allowed me to enter Xuanyun Sect as an exception. I will have to thank him in the future."
Hua Xi put his hands behind his head, thinking about what Jiaruo had just said, and felt worried.
"We can't tell that he has so many magical powers," Ling'er said.
Yes, even Hua Xi didn’t realize at first that Jiaruo’s background was really not ordinary.
"By the way, the emperor will be hunting in the hunting grounds the day after tomorrow. All the military officers in the court will accompany him. The empress has asked the ladies of each mansion to participate as well. The master has asked the lady to bring the young lady to participate."
Hearing this, Hua Xi's eyes narrowed coldly.
The day after tomorrow?
I didn't expect Mo Qingtian to be so impatient to sell her!
Hunting is just an excuse. Prince Pingnan is also a military general, so he will naturally participate.
I'm afraid that Mo Qingtian and Aunt Shui have already planned how to make her become King Pingnan's woman without anyone knowing.
A sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Since they are so eager to die, why not help them?
"Ling'er, go and secretly tell Aunt Luo about your father and Aunt Shui's plan." Hua Xi ordered.
Aunt Luo has fallen out of favor now, so it is impossible for her to know everything. We have to remind her first, so that she won’t miss the best opportunity!
"Yes." Ling'er nodded and went out with a smile.
Next, Hua Xi closed his eyes and entered Jingyu's world.
The faint sound of the piano fills this seemingly endless world.
The sound of the piano is clear and melodious, and it is at peace with the world, just like the lonely moon in the sky, far away and out of reach.
It is said that the sound of a piano can reveal the inner heart of the person playing it. When Hua Xi heard it, he only felt a sense of loneliness, as if it was the moonlight hidden in a distant time and space.
