That's what villains are like

Chapter 109 It's smoother than expected, the former emperor left behind
The originally chaotic painting boat gradually calmed down after Emperor Xia took action.

Several remnants of the Blood Immortal Cult died one after another, without exception.

People of the Blood Immortal Cult always have restrictions in their sea of ​​consciousness. Once they see someone who wants to search for their souls, they will detonate them as soon as possible.

Even if the shot is timely, the prohibition will immediately explode at the moment the divine consciousness erodes into his sea of ​​consciousness.

This is also a headache that Daxia has always had. Even if someone who captures the Blood Immortal Sect is caught, it is difficult to torture and investigate from his mouth.

Originally, Emperor Xia wanted to continue watching the show in secret, but judging from the situation just now, the five-realm powerhouse is indeed not something that Jiang Lan can deal with now.

If he didn't stop him, Xiangguo Jiang Lintian saw that his son was assassinated in Jingyang City and was seriously injured afterwards.

She is already very busy now, and she really doesn't want to cause any more trouble.

It's a pity that she still wants to use these remnants of the Blood Immortal Sect as clues, to see if she can follow the clues, find out their stronghold, and find out the high-ranking members of the Blood Immortal Sect who spread that she is a daughter.

Now that such an accident happened, we had to find another way.

"Thank you for your help..."

In the painting boat, the tranquility was restored, only the strange mist and fragrance were still floating in the void.

Jiang Lan didn't seem to expect that at this moment, someone would come to his rescue.

He straightened his robe and looked at the fair-skinned man in brocade robe in front of him.

"..."

Emperor Xia stood with her palms back, her face expressionless. It was impossible for her to have any good looks towards Jiang Lan, even if she was disguised now.

However, after thinking about it, she still said calmly, "It's a little effort, Mr. Jiang doesn't have to."

Right now, Jiang Lan doesn't know her real identity, just during this period of time, she intends to have someone investigate him.

Now that he had such an opportunity to get in touch with him secretly, he might be able to find out some secrets and plans of Xiangguo Mansion from it.

Thinking of this, Emperor Xia's face softened a little, and he said, "The remnants of the Blood Immortal Sect have wreaked havoc in Kyushu, and everyone will be punished for it."

Jiang Lan smiled noncommittally when he heard the words, and also restrained his expression, and asked, "I don't know what your name is?"

Although he had never had direct contact with Emperor Xia before, he could guess his identity from the expression and demeanor of the person in front of him.

What's more, he personally set up a bureau and planned for several days, just to attract Emperor Xia to show up in person.

No matter how easily she looks different, Jiang Lan can still confirm her identity through the Dao of Fate. He knows that Emperor Xia will definitely come.

Right now, Xia Huang has successfully rescued her, dispelling her original doubts and concerns about herself.

This is exactly what Jiang Lan wanted.

It can be said that all of this was within his expectation and control.

"It's just a name, it doesn't matter." Xia Huang said.

"Naturally, the name is not important, but after all, your Excellency has saved my life. My father taught me since I was a child that the favor of saving my life should be repaid by the spring."

"If you don't even know the name of the savior, it's somewhat unreasonable." Jiang Lan said seriously.

Emperor Xia sneered in his heart, no matter how he heard such words from Jiang Lan's mouth, it was so awkward.

"In that case, Mr. Jiang will remember, my name is Hao Xinren."

"As for the grace of saving your life, don't worry about it. It's just a matter of raising your hands. I'm investigating the remnants of the Blood Immortal Sect. I just happened to encounter this scene. If I were someone else, I would help."

Emperor Xia said lightly.

"It's fine if you don't want to tell your real name. If there is a chance in the future, I will return your favor." Jiang Lan didn't seem to be persistent after hearing this.

Emperor Xia glanced at him, feeling a sense of interest in his heart.

Jiang Lan walked to the window of the wing room, looked out at the river where the mist was gradually dissipating, and said, "Your Excellency is a bit unfamiliar, I guess you are not from Jingyang City."

"I have sent a message just now. My guards will arrive soon. If you don't want to get involved in these troubles, it's better to leave first."

"I didn't expect Mr. Jiang to be so kind?"

Emperor Xia looked at him, and said with great interest, "Don't worry, I and these people from the Blood Immortal Sect are accomplices, and deliberately directed and acted out the scene just now?"

Logically speaking, with such a strange face, she appeared in the same boat as Jiang Lan, and faced the strange mist of the remnants of the Blood Immortal Sect, she did not fall into a coma.

On the contrary, when Jiang Lan was about to encounter danger, he rescued him at the right time, which was a bit too coincidental no matter how you looked at it.

Shouldn't the first reaction of a normal person be to suspect that all of this is a self-directed and self-acted game?
However, Jiang Lan behaved so casually and calmly, so he didn't doubt it.

"If I say no doubt, will you believe me?"

Regarding Emperor Xia's question, Jiang Lan just glanced at her and said, "Even if I doubt it, I can't do anything about you, so it's better to choose to believe you."

Emperor Xia did not expect him to be so straightforward, and said, "Young Master Jiang is a smart person, so I can only say that you may have believed the wrong person."

"Speaking of which, from the first time I saw Your Excellency just now, I didn't think you were a bad person..." Jiang Lan said seriously.

Emperor Xia snorted coldly in his heart, and said expressionlessly, "Young Master Jiang has sharp eyes."

"Since you don't want to tell the story, then I won't force you."

"This item is my token. If you encounter trouble in Jingyang City, you can use this item to seek help from the Xiangguo Mansion. As long as it is not a very troublesome matter, the Xiangguo Mansion can basically help you settle it."

"Of course, if you intend to come to our Xiangguo Mansion to serve as a disciple, our Xiangguo Mansion also welcomes you very much. Skills, spirit stones, rare beauties, whatever you ask, will be satisfied."

While talking casually, Jiang Lan took out a jade pendant engraved with the surname "Jiang" from her arms, and placed it on the tea table in front of her.

Emperor Xia narrowed his eyes, staring at Jiang Lan's face, but just glanced over the jade pendant without picking it up.

The majestic Lord of Great Xia, let her go to Xiangguo's mansion as a guest to worship?
However, in these years, the Xiangguo Mansion has indeed cultivated many disciples, all of whom are well-cultivated, and there are many existences of the sixth and seventh realms.

Right now Jiang Lan doesn't know her identity, this jade pendant may come in handy in the future.

Thinking of this, Emperor Xia nodded lightly, raised the jade hand under the wide-sleeved robe, and she took the jade pendant away.

"Since Mr. Jiang has said so, then I will be disrespectful." She replied.

Seeing this, Jiang Lan seemed to be expecting a smile, and said, "If your Excellency wants to look for it someday, I will be in the mansion, sweeping the couch and waiting, and walking on backwards to meet him."

Emperor Xia remained silent, and with a flick of his sleeves, his figure disappeared instantly.

After Jiang Lan watched Emperor Xia leave, the smile on his face also disappeared.

He sensed it with his life, and made sure that she had gone far away, then shook his head lightly, sat back on the soft bed, took a sip of the cold tea.

"It was even smoother than I imagined, and the jade pendant was delivered smoothly..."

He looked strange.

She thought Emperor Xia's prudence would directly investigate, but she didn't doubt it, and directly accepted the jade pendant.

Of course, if she remembered afterwards, she might check it out, but that wasn't important anymore.

Jiang Lan condensed his soul of life into that jade pendant.

On the way back to the palace, Emperor Xia was enough for him to completely attach that ray of life soul to her breath of life.

This has two advantages.

One is to determine the location of Emperor Xia by sensing the location of his soul, so as to prevent him from meeting Emperor Xia directly when he pretends to be the leader of the Naxian League next time.

The second is that his life soul is attached to Emperor Xia's breath of life. Jiang Lan can use this to imitate her breath of life, in a real sense to make the real one.

As for tonight's actions, whether it will make Empress Xia suspect him again in front of him is not important.

It is estimated that by the time she realized this, Jiang Lan had already pulled out her teeth and folded her arms, so she was just a bird in a cage, nothing to be afraid of.

Not long after Emperor Xia left, Jiang Lan took action and cleaned up the body of the broad-faced man with five realms of cultivation without leaving any traces.

Then, a group of his guards also rushed over and sealed the boat tightly.

The fact that he was assassinated by the remnants of the Blood Immortal Sect was also under Jiang Lan's intentional control, and no news came out.

Although his parents also got the news, they knew that it was only a few four-level cultivators who attacked and killed him, so they didn't worry too much.

This is the reason why Jiang Lan disposed of the body of the broad-faced man with five realms of cultivation.

He has only just embarked on cultivation, and with the strength shown in front of his parents, it is not difficult to kill the existence of the four realms by means of many means, but if he wants to kill the five realms, it is a bit beyond the standard and shocking the world. He doesn't want to make troubles.

Anyway, the only people who saw Emperor Xia make a move were him and several maids of Emperor Xia.

Even if Emperor Xia took his token, he would not be able to go to Xiangguo Mansion to look for him, so basically no one would know what happened tonight as long as he didn't tell.

For the next few days, Jingyang City was completely calm.

After Emperor Xia returned to the palace, he still did not give up asking people to investigate the Blood Immortal Cult's stronghold in Jingyang City.

At the same time, she also ordered the Dark Flower Pavilion to try to find out more information about Jiang Lan.

Although she had only been in contact with him for a short time, she was sure that Jiang Lan was not as frivolous and playful as the world knew, on the contrary he was very smart.

It was impossible to practice before, and there must be some unknown secrets in it.

However, because of this matter, she dispelled some of her previous concerns. Originally, she was a little worried that the Xiangguo Mansion would secretly collude with the Blood Immortal Sect.

But the fact that the Blood Immortal Cult dared to assassinate Jiang Lan so blatantly showed that she was too worried before.

While investigating Jiang Lan, Emperor Xia did not forget to send someone to investigate the truth of the kit he got from the Immortal Immortal.

If she didn't understand that matter, she might really have trouble sleeping and eating.

……

Jingyang City regained a short period of calm.

Jiang Lan also received the news from Su Qinghan.

She has already arrived at Daocang Sword Sect, and she will follow Yuqing Sword Immortal to cultivate quietly.

Jiang Lan replied to her, telling her to practice with peace of mind, and would visit her when she had time.

On Chu Chan's side, Yaochi Sect has also started to gain a firm foothold, emerging among the inner disciples. After a while, she will follow Chen Ning and go to Beiming Chen's house as a guest.

Jiang Lan knew her plan, the Beiming Chen family had a great relationship with the former Beiming Ancient Heavenly Venerable.

Beiming Ancient Heavenly Venerable, also known as Beiming Demon Venerable, the inheritance left by him is Beiming Demon Art, which can devour other people's origin and cultivation for his own use.

In the original plot, the inheritance of Beiming Ancient Heavenly Venerable Chu Chan obtained should be related to this trip...

Jiang Lan had great expectations for her.

Now Chu Chan has not yet grown into the successor of the demon king who will scare the whole Kyushu land in the future, but the embryonic form is also faintly visible.

During this period of time, with the accumulation of various cultivation resources every day, Jiang Lan also "successfully" broke through the Qi Cultivation Realm as his parents wished, and began to prepare for opening up the spiritual sea.

Pieces of rare and priceless treasures of heaven and earth were sent from various places in Daxia and piled up in the side hall for his cultivation.

The rubbing jade talisman with two pages of wordless heaven scriptures was also sent over from Sui Ji Li's house.

Originally, Jiang Lan was still a little worried. It was just a rubbing jade talisman, not an authentic one, whether the mysterious ancient vine would absorb it.

Later, he realized that he was worrying too much, and two streamers of light flew away in the sea of ​​consciousness, turning into two misty rays of light, wrapping the Rubbing Jade Talisman in an instant.

On the ancient vine, there were two more simple leaves that seemed to be shrouded in chaotic matter, and with the previous one, there were three more.

It is equivalent to that he now has three innate immortal tattoos on his body.

In the courtyard, maple leaves are falling, figures are intertwined, and skirts are flying.

Several clusters of rays of light collided, bursting out a gorgeous light like flowing fire, causing the surrounding prohibition formations to flicker and shake.

Immediately afterwards, a slender figure landed firmly on the bluestone, the blue silk was soft, but the veil used to cover the face disappeared, and there was a trace of being rubbed on the crystal-clear and flawless white jade face.

"It seems that Meng Ning has suppressed your cultivation base to the level of Linghai Realm, and you are no longer my opponent." Jiang Lan put the veil into her arms casually.

Li Mengning didn't want to pay attention to him.

In her eyes, Jiang Lan's cultivation base has improved very quickly, and it is not too much to describe the changes as they change with each passing day.

He was able to fight the first few days, but the second day was a bit tricky, and if he still suppressed his cultivation on the third day, he would bully him.

"Angry?"

Jiang Lan walked over and rubbed the other half of her face. Her skin was very delicate, white and smooth, like mutton fat fairy jade, shining with a white luster.

"No……"

"I'm very happy that your cultivation base has improved very quickly." Li Mengning stared at him with quiet eyes.

Jiang Lan smiled, returned the veil to her, helped her put it back on, sat down on Qingshi beside her, and held her in her arms.

He lived such an unpretentious life every day.

Practicing during the day, listening to music at night, red flying and green dancing, accompanied by singing and swallows.

By the way, let Ye Zhiyan pay attention to Xiao Teng's actions through the communication jade talisman.

He always remembered that the owner of the Goddess Palace and Ge Qixing awakened the memory of being the Lord of the Stars in his previous life in order for Xiao Teng to successfully open the Star Imprint.

Not only did he seal the Yaoguang Immortal Jade, a treasure of the Goddess Palace, in his spiritual sea, but he also secretly collected the seven-star origin for Xiao Teng.

But it's not yet the time for the Seven Star Origin to be born.

The south hunt is coming soon, and Jiang Lan is also planning to prepare a second big gift for Emperor Xia.

In the original plot, before the death of the first emperor, he had expected that his heirs would be assassinated one after another, so he left behind.

Today Xia Huang Xia Junxi ranks seventh, according to seniority, she should actually be the seventh princess.

And before her, there was another sixth prince who was born to Concubine Xuan.

It's just that on the day of birth, he was dropped by the maid in the palace and sent to be raised outside the palace, while the fake prince was plotted and murdered by many forces in the court, and died unexpectedly.

The late emperor asked Xia Junxi to disguise himself as a man and become the crown prince, although there were unavoidable reasons.

But the bigger purpose is to confuse the public and make Xia Junxi attract the attention of the court, so as to protect the sixth prince and let him grow up safely.

For this reason, the first emperor secretly left a will in case of future contingencies.

"At this time, Xia Junxi probably already knows about this matter, but she doesn't know where the sixth prince is or who he is, but with her eyeliner, she can investigate the family history and whereabouts of those maids in the palace. It can also be investigated..."

"I have to control the sixth prince before her."

Jiang Lan planned to develop her own strength secretly during this period of time.

At present, there are not many people who can be used by him, only Song Youwei and Ye Zhiyan.

As for Li Mengning, Jiang Lan didn't want her to be involved in too many things, and if something happened to her, even he himself would be suspected.

He is now confused with the Blood Immortal Sect...

"The Sixth Prince, it seems that I have to go again in person. Song Youwei has been unable to get away from the plan of the Blood Immortal Sect these days."

"I hurt Ye Zhiyan that night, and she is still recovering from her injuries, and she can't show up easily now..."

"It's better to find more people who can be used by me."

Jiang Lan was lost in thought.

Linjiang County, Yangchun City.

Qi family.

"In ancient times, those who wished to manifest their virtues in the world first ruled their country; those who wanted to rule their country first ordered their families; those who wanted to order their families first cultivated their own bodies..."

In a seemingly poor courtyard.

Beside a willow tree, an imposing man with curly hair in a gray cotton robe was holding an ancient scroll, sitting on a stone bench, reading it with great interest.

His spirit is hale and hearty, his eyes are clear, and he seems to contain great wisdom.

Judging from his face, he is only in his 20s, but if a monk judges his bones, he will find that he has already passed his thirties.

"If you want to govern the country well, you must first manage your own family well. No family, no country, family country..."

"It's a pity that there are very few people in the world who can manage their families well. Where are the people who can really govern the country?"

"The court is chaotic, and the place is even more so. Immortal gates are watching, princes are entrenched, and the great families will only protect themselves."

After a while, the man sighed and closed the scroll in his hand.

There are three major families in Yangchun City, among which the Qi family he belongs to is one of them, and Qi is the head of the three families.

As the third master of the Qi family, he should be rich and honored.

But the courtyard in front of him is very poor and simple, and there are no maids to serve it.
