That's what villains are like

Chapter 127 It's just bad luck for her to be pure, thanks to you
On the wall, the moonlight is shining, and it is bright and clean.

The figure standing quietly seemed to have known that Emperor Xia would pass by here.

When the night wind blows, the blue hair blows away, covering her almost fairy-like flawless face, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a misty fairy mist around her, which is indistinct, as if she is not in the same world as other living beings.

She was clearly there, but she seemed to be detached from the world.

It was Jiang Ruxian.

At this moment, her eyes looked over and landed on Emperor Xia, as if she had been waiting for her here for a long time.

But she didn't speak, just looked at her coldly and calmly.

"Your Majesty, let's go."

"We stop this person."

The four maids, Chunlan and Xiazhu, were on the verge of a formidable enemy, extremely vigilant, and mana fluctuations began to surge from their bodies.

This indescribable terrifying aura was like a towering mountain hanging high above their heads, which would fall down at any moment, making them dare not relax at all.

Especially Xia Zhu, she was one of the people who witnessed Jiang Ruxian's terror with her own eyes.

That day outside the desolate ruined temple, this woman in white faced the siege of three seven-level beings, and she just lifted her hand, and easily knocked them into the air, without any effort.

Her strength is trembling and scalp tingling.

Xia Zhu never expected that Jiang Ruxian would appear in the imperial capital without a sound, and even intercepted the Emperor Xia on his way back to the palace.

Could this be to assassinate His Majesty the Emperor Xia?

Compared to the nervousness and vigilance of the four maids, Emperor Xia seemed extremely calm and calm at the moment.

After the surprise just now, she quickly recovered.

It's just that she is still curious about how Jiang Ruxian found herself and confirmed her identity.

One must know that she is still dressed as usual, her hair is all tied up, she is wearing a rather elegant brocade gown, a high crown and belt, and a piece of round ancient jade hanging from her waist, she is completely dressed like a rich man.

Looking around in this imperial capital, if you don't pay attention, no one will notice her.

But now... is not the time to think too much about it.

"Don't be nervous, she shouldn't be malicious..."

Emperor Xia just waved his hand to tell the four maids to calm down and not panic.

And she looked at Jiang Ruxian calmly.

Jiang Ruxian didn't speak, but his eyes fell on her face, as if he wanted to scrutinize her carefully.

As a reborn person, she naturally knew that Emperor Xia in front of her was a woman.

On the timeline of her previous life, she would also become the only empress of the Great Xia, a mighty force that would frighten the world.

But... In her eyes, she is no different from ordinary mortals.

When the night wind blew, the blue hair fluttered, and her eyes became more and more cold and indifferent.

"What should I call you?"

"Jiang Lan's sister? Or what?"

With a smile on the corner of Xia Huang's mouth, he spoke, and at the same time, various thoughts flashed through his mind.

In the imperial capital, as the Lord of the Great Xia, she was born invincible.

No matter how strong Jiang Ruxian was, it would not be easy to assassinate her, and if there was a big commotion here, it would soon attract the attention of others.

It's impossible for Jiang Ruxian to look like someone who would do such a stupid thing.

She will stop herself, she definitely has other plans...

So the slight tension in her heart was relieved a lot. She didn't want to fight Jiang Ruxian, especially at this time.

When Emperor Xia took the initiative to mention Jiang Lan's name, Jiang Ruxian's cold eyes moved slightly.

The next moment, her figure disappeared out of thin air on the wall, and when she reappeared, she was already in front of Emperor Xia, and the two were only a few steps away.

But because of this majestic breath, the four maids were so oppressed that they couldn't move, they couldn't even breathe smoothly.

"The person who was peeping secretly outside the ruined temple was you?"

Jiang Ruxian did not answer, but looked directly at Emperor Xia, and spoke calmly, without any ups and downs in his tone, even if he was facing the current Lord of Great Xia, he didn't care at all.
Emperor Xia nodded bluntly, "It is indeed me."

"It was also I who informed Jiang Lan of your existence in advance and let him prepare."

She thought about it, and continued to add.

Jiang Ruxian looked at her calmly.

She came to look for Emperor Xia, partly because of the prying eyes that appeared outside the ruined temple that day.

On the one hand, it was because of Jiang Lan's affairs.

And at this moment, Emperor Xia's voluntary admission was completely within her expectation.

In Guangyuan City that day, the only people she came into contact with were the female leader of Jian Tiansi and her companions.

It's just that she didn't expect that she had already cut off the memories of the two of them, and her whereabouts would still be exposed. It could only mean that one of the two had hidden secrets that she didn't know about.

"What's your purpose?" Jiang Ruxian asked.

Emperor Xia shook his head slightly and said, "I already know the grievances between you and the Xiangguo Mansion."

"But I'm not interested in participating in it, I just hope that this Nanshou drill can go on smoothly."

"There is no conflict of interest between you and me."

She also doesn't expect Jiang Ruxian to be used by her, and she is not sure that she can control such a person.

Jiang Ruxian still looked at Emperor Xia calmly, noncommittal to her answer.

"What's your relationship with Jiang Lan?" She asked the question she cared most about.

Emperor Xia was a little startled, she thought that Jiang Ruxian stopped her because she was worried that after she knew the grievances between her and the Xiangguo Mansion, she would be a hindrance.

But she directly asked what was the relationship between herself and Jiang Lan?
This made Emperor Xia a little confused. She and Jiang Lan are not very familiar, at most, they have only met a few times and talked a lot...

Could it be because he revealed her whereabouts to Jiang Lan, making her suspect that she has a good relationship with Jiang Lan?

Or do you suspect that you and the Xiangguo Mansion will join forces to deal with her and resolve the factors that are not conducive to Da Xia?
Many thoughts flashed through my mind.

Emperor Xia seemed to have thought of something, and the smile on the corner of his mouth grew stronger.

She looked at Jiang Ruxian and said bluntly, "I admire him very much, he and Xiangguo Jiang Lintian are not the same way."

"Besides, I have a good personal relationship with him. Otherwise, how could I take the risk and send someone to disclose your whereabouts to him?"

"Wouldn't it be better for me to see you and the Xiangguo Mansion fighting to the death?"

Jiang Ruxian's eyes were still cold and indifferent, but when he heard this, he was obviously a little colder.

"lie."

She raised her hand, and the void in front of her seemed to freeze suddenly.

The torrential and vast power swept away suddenly, like a raging wave, the void became blurred, and then it suddenly came over under Xia Huang's eyes full of astonishment and shock.

"you……"

Emperor Xia didn't even see Jiang Ruxian's movements clearly before he found that slender and fair jade hand appeared in front of his neck.

Then, she was grabbed uncontrollably, and her feet flew into the air, without even the slightest resistance.

Her beautiful eyes widened, full of disbelief and disbelief.

Why didn't she even feel the sign of Jiang Ruxian's attack, and didn't even notice the slightest aura fluctuation?

"His Majesty……"

Chunlan, Xia Zhu and the others, seeing this sudden scene, were even more shocked, their eyes turned pale, and they wanted to rescue them.

But just under Jiang Ruxian's gaze, he was suppressed and couldn't move.

"In front of me, lying will not do you any good." Jiang Ruxian said calmly.

The Great Xia Nanshou rehearsal is coming soon, and the Emperor Xia does not want to see her fight with the Xiangguo Mansion and ruin the overall situation.

This is the purpose of her disclosing her whereabouts to Jiang Lan.

Saying that it was because of Jiang Lan's relationship was just an excuse she used to fool herself.

"Cough cough..."

Emperor Xia coughed several times, the center of his brows glowed, and there was a jade-like light floating up and down.

A vague real dragon figure could be seen faintly, but under Jiang Ruxian's suppression, it only appeared for a moment and then disappeared.

As the lord of Great Xia, she is still in the imperial capital, and she possesses the body of the emperor's aura, but she doesn't even have a chance to mobilize the dragon's luck when facing Jiang Ruxian?
This is definitely not something that ordinary eight-level existences can do.

"Nine realms?"

Emperor Xia was shocked in his heart, what kind of monster and freak is this.

At such a close distance, if Jiang Ruxian wanted to kill her, wouldn't he really be able to do it?

In the past in the imperial capital, she never considered the issue of her own safety, but now... it is finally a little urgent.

"If you have the ability, then kill me, and see if the world will be chaotic, and Jiang Lan will be able to survive alone and be safe?"

"Once something happens to me, do you think you can leave the imperial capital safely?" Xia Huang said calmly, looking directly at Jiang Ruxian.

Jiang Ruxian was silent for a moment when he heard the words, and finally let go of his hand.

She made the move just now, it was indeed because of some sullenness in her heart, not because Emperor Xia lied to confuse her, but because her words of thinking about Jiang Lan made her upset and very uncomfortable.

"What is the relationship between me and Jiang Lan, and what does it have to do with you?"

"Since you don't have any grievances with him anymore, why bother with his affairs, you just need to know that I will not harm him." Emperor Xia said coldly again.

She finally understood what was going on with the coldness she felt just now.

Her intuition as a woman told her that Jiang Ruxian stopped her not because she was the Lord of Great Xia, but because she was a woman, and also because she didn't know what relationship she had with Jiang Lan.

She really cares about this.

Emperor Xia didn't know where Jiang Ruxian knew the secret of his daughter's body.

After figuring this out, Emperor Xia was inexplicably irritable. Could it be that this guy thought there was something between him and Jiang Lan?

It's just ridiculous.

With such terrifying talent and strength, why do you care so much about these trivial matters?

"..."

Jiang Ruxian's eyes were even colder and indifferent when Xia Huang said these words, and the chill in the air was even worse.

In the few days since she came to the imperial capital, she has already figured out Jiang Lan's habits and whereabouts.

She didn't expect to be able to resolve Jiang Lan's dislike for her easily, but at least she needed to know what he wanted to do and what he needed, so as to have a chance to make up for the damage she caused to him.

Perhaps one day in the future, he will be relieved...

This can also be regarded as some compensation for the paranoid things she could do in her previous life. As for getting back together, she actually doesn't expect, nor does she feel that there is any hope.

So she has seen all the movements in the imperial capital these days.

In fact, when Emperor Xia left the palace in disguise, Jiang Ruxian had already noticed her.

Maybe other people can't see Emperor Xia's identity, but in her eyes, the strong aura of emperor lingering on him is bright and brilliant in the dark, as bright as a big sun, and it is impossible for people not to pay attention.

Just because Emperor Xia sent someone to spy on him outside the desolate and ruined temple that day, she was planning to beat Emperor Xia to let him not meddle in his own business.

As long as it doesn't hinder her, she won't interfere in Da Xia's affairs, let alone who is in charge of this world.

So Jiang Ruxian followed Emperor Xia, seeing her go to Yuxianfang all the way, and after seeing her there, she asked the maid to ask Jiang Lan about his movements in the past few days, and asked him if he had been to Yuxianfang.

In the end, knowing that Jiang Lan hadn't shown up, he left with some regrets and went back to the palace.

Such a scene, Jiang Ruxian saw it in his eyes, but he was very restless in his heart.

As the lord of the Great Xia, the Emperor Xia didn't stay in the palace properly, deal with affairs, and was thinking of going out of the palace in a low-clothes in the middle of the night to meet other men privately?

Although she understands that there may be some kind of deal between Emperor Xia and Jiang Lan...

But she still couldn't help it.

To put it bluntly, the main reason why she would attack Xia Huang was simply because she was in a bad mood. If Xia Huang was a man, she would not bother to care.

At this moment, Emperor Xia could fully see that Jiang Ruxian in front of her was definitely paranoid. Could it be that she planned to beat and intimidate all the women who were related to Jiang Lan?
She had a bad luck tonight.

"There is a Hualong Pond deep in the palace, which contains a lot of aura of good fortune, which has a miraculous effect on healing. I originally planned to find Jiang Lan tonight and ask him to tell Xiangguo, so that I can open the Hualong Pond for him on the bright side. , let him go to heal his wounds..."

"Otherwise, I don't know how long it will take for his injury to heal."

"He helped me secretly, so naturally I won't treat him badly. If you care about the relationship between him and me, then you can ask him as much as you want. Why stop me here in the middle of the night."

"This move is a bit too despicable. I just don't know how he will feel about it?"

Emperor Xia straightened the wrinkled collar just now, and said calmly.

Originally, she was reluctant to part with Hualongchi, but in order to keep Jiang Ruxian in front of her, she could only say this.

Hearing these words, Jiang Ruxian frowned imperceptibly.

She looked deeply at Emperor Xia, and said flatly, "You don't have to provoke me like this, as long as you don't use Jiang Lan, what you do has nothing to do with me."

"hope so."

Xia Huang suppressed the anger in his heart, and responded with a flat face.

Jiang Ruxian was clearly threatening her.

As the Lord of Great Xia, being threatened face to face in the imperial capital, it is impossible for her to be honest without resentment and anger.

But the patience and dormant mentality that she has cultivated for a long time still made her face look calm and breezy.

Jiang Ruxian stopped talking when he heard the words, and his figure disappeared in front of Emperor Xia without a sound.

In the wall alley, the mist is still there, and the moon is shining brightly. Everything just now seems to be just an illusion.

"There's no reason..."

The flat look on Emperor Xia's face finally couldn't hold back anymore, his eyes were full of coldness and anger.

"Our ineffective protection has caused His Majesty to suffer humiliation."

The four maids including Chun Lan and Xia Zhu knelt down behind her in unison, their faces were pale, their backs and dresses were tightly pressed together, and the cold sweat from just now remained.

Xia Huangyu's hands creaked, even Jiang Lintian, Xiangguo, would not dare to threaten her so brazenly.

The majestic Lord of Great Xia is so cowardly and aggrieved, and Jiang Lan had to rely on Jiang Ruxian to restrain Jiang Ruxian just now.

Of course, she also knew that she was too careless tonight.

If she had known Jiang Ruxian's true strength earlier, she would not have been able to approach her so easily.

But in the imperial capital, there is such a elusive and terrifying existence, which makes her feel like a light on her back.

Could it be that Jiang Ruxian could also step into the palace silently and take her life like walking on flat ground?

"We must think of a way to restrain this person."

"When I go back to the palace tonight, I have to carry Xia Yu's sword with me..."

Xia Yujian is the divine sword cast by the founding emperor of Great Xia at a huge cost.

Just the copper of the first mountain used is tens of millions. It is the sword of the emperor of the holy way, and it contains infinite power.

In the past, it has been enshrined in the depths of the palace, and only the Great Xia monarch can pull it out.

Emperor Xia always thought that in the imperial capital, no one could be her opponent, but Jiang Ruxian taught her a solid lesson tonight.

As long as the opponent is far stronger than her, he can easily suppress her before she uses the mobilization of Dragon Luck.

After this incident, outside the Qianyuan Mansion the next day, there were several times more guards around Emperor Xia than in the past.

This made all the celestial orthodoxy who watched the ceremony feel a little unsure of what this meant, and started to speculate one after another.

But except for Emperor Xia and the four personal maids beside her, no one knew what happened last night.

In the center of the square, a huge round mirror is crystal clear and sits in it.

The divine light is brilliant, and the rays of the sun are shining, and some areas are even more foggy, covering the buildings and pavilions in them.

After several days of fighting, some Tianzi areas in Qianyuan Mansion have been occupied by some young talents of great religion.

In almost every area, there is a true disciple sitting in charge, and young disciples from various princes, nobles, and powerful families have also shown impressive skills.

All the elders who came to watch the ceremony also nodded secretly, and their eyes swept over some of the young disciples, very satisfied.

Among them, Xiao Teng, the third son of Zhenbei King Xiaohe, and Xia Jie, the third son of Prince Wuxuan, attracted the most attention.

In addition to occupying the Tianzi area, he also won many treasures of opportunity in the Qianyuan Mansion, which can be described as a remarkable record.

Xiaohe, the King of Zhenbei from the outside world, was very happy with a red face, and all the fellow ministers around him also congratulated one after another.

In addition, the disciples of Yijian Palace around Xiao Teng also performed very well.

Among them, Ye Ming intends to show his own strength to see if he can attract the attention and respect of Emperor Xia.

The rest of the Immortal Sect disciples are deliberately looking for opportunities in it, so as not to waste half of the chance to become stronger.

In contrast, the desire to become famous is not as strong as the young disciples of the major families in the imperial capital.

The Xiangguo Mansion seemed a little deserted.

The performance of the young disciples brought by the disciples was mediocre. I don't know if it was due to lack of acceptance, or because they had no intention of fighting. Many princes and nobles who paid close attention to Xiangguo's mansion shook their heads secretly.

As for the forces attached to the Xiangguo Mansion, the young Tianjiao sent here acted independently and did not gather together. It seemed that they had been ordered not to pay too much attention to this matter.

During this period of time, the Xiangguo Mansion was indeed a little low-key and quiet.

But even so, no one dared to underestimate Xiangguofu. They were just thinking about this appetizer. Xiangguofu might not care too much about the opportunity.

Of course, there are also many people who are speculating whether it is because Jiang Lan, the son of Xiangguo's mansion, is too weak.

Therefore, knowing that his performance is not as good as that of other peers of the same generation, he has no intention of participating in the opening of the Qianyuan Mansion this time.

All kinds of discussions and speculations began to spread among major teahouses and stalls.

"Then Jiang Lan has so many secrets, how could he show off at this time..."

"It's not easy to hide under the eyes of everyone."

"It's good for me without him."

In Qianyuan Mansion, in a Taoist temple built of bluestone, Ye Ming, Xiao Teng and others worked together to break the restriction here, and are exploring the opportunity here.

He shook his head slightly inwardly when the disciples of Yijian Palace around him guessed why Jiang Lan didn't get involved.

Ye Ming wished that Jiang Lan would not appear here, so that he could have less worries and worries.

Of course, only Emperor Xia knew from the outside world that Jiang Lan's absence from the Qianyuan Mansion was most likely due to his injuries.

Ordinary people dig out their hearts, and they will undoubtedly die.

Although Jiang Lan has a fairy fetus in her body, after digging out her heart, even if she can receive medical treatment and recuperation soon, it is estimated that she will not be alive and kicking for a long time.

As for the so-called false name, he might not even care about it.

After all, his previous reputation was not much better.

However, although Emperor Xia thought so, he heard the news that Jiang Lan had appeared in Yuxianfang the next day.

Regarding Jiang Ruxian, she decided to have a good talk with Jiang Lan.

It's not that I'm curious about the "resentment and hatred" between Jiang Lan and Jiang Ruxian, but I just don't want to cause trouble for myself for no reason.

In addition, she felt that Jiang Lan was the only person in the imperial capital who could restrain Jiang Ruxian.

That night, when he saw Jiang Lan at the old place, Emperor Xia was a little surprised.

Compared to usual, Jiang Lan's complexion was a little pale, as if recovering from a serious illness, with a sickly look.

This is very similar to his earlier appearance, so many people are not surprised when they see it.

It's just that he looks like this, and he still has the intention to be arty, listening to music and enjoying dances, Emperor Xia doesn't know what to say about him.

In the box, all the dancers stepped back respectfully.

"What's the matter?"

Jiang Lan slowly straightened up on the couch, and casually greeted Emperor Xia.

When she knew that Emperor Xia had sent a lot of guards around her, Jiang Lan vaguely guessed that she might be troubled by Jiang Ruxian.

So he guessed that Emperor Xia might visit him, so he left Xiangguo Mansion and came to Yuxianfang to wait for her early.

Sure enough, as soon as Emperor Xia came over, he was full of complaints.

"Thanks to you, I caused a lot of trouble for no reason." Emperor Xia said flatly.

"Curiosity killed the cat. Sometimes, with less curiosity, there won't be so much trouble."

"Can't control myself, can you blame me?" Jiang Lan said with a casual smile.

That day Emperor Xia sent someone to follow and spy secretly, he naturally knew about it, and for the sake of the follow-up plan, he naturally pretended not to see it.

In the past few days in the Xiangguo Mansion, in the name of healing and recuperation, he studied the Dao Fruit of the Year, and he was more sure that Jiang Ruxian had the breath of time fragments...

It seemed that it was no accident that she left the Island of No Return and set foot in Zhongtian State ahead of time.

Originally possessing incomparable terrifying talent and strength, coupled with the foresight of rebirth, Jiang Ruxian's life will only be more terrifying. Whoever is against her will die without knowing how.

"She almost killed me." Emperor Xia said expressionlessly.

Jiang Lan showed a look of surprise, then shook her head slightly and said, "I have nothing to do with her, it's useless for you to tell me."

"I thought it was something important that you came to me, but if it's something related to her, then I can only say that you are looking for the wrong person."

There was coldness in Emperor Xia's eyes, and he said, "Jiang Lan..."

Jiang Lan looked at her and said seriously, "I really can't help you."

Emperor Xia took a deep breath, calmed down, and said calmly, "Young Master Jiang is really a nobleman who forgets things a lot. What did you say that day in this painting boat?"

Jiang Lan sighed and said, "As far as the matter is concerned, if it's something else, I can help you, but I really can't help you with this matter."

"I don't want to have anything to do with her anymore."

Emperor Xia was silent for a moment, seeing Jiang Lan's serious expression, not fooling himself, felt a little helpless.

He refused so bluntly, so what else could she do.

But being so targeted by Jiang Ruxian and holding grudges, she really had a headache...

"Do you really hate her that much? Hate her?" Emperor Xia changed the subject and asked casually.

"It's good for you to be less curious."

Jiang Lan seemed to smile, and then said, "You know that if you get too close to me, you will be watched by her, but you still ask so many questions? I really admire it."

"Mind your own business." Emperor Xia snorted coldly.

"It's not that I hate her, it's just that I don't want to have anything to do with her. Thanks to her, I'm riddled with holes." Jiang Lan said unhurriedly.

"I'm also thanks to you. Now I can't sleep or eat well, and I need to be on guard day and night..." Xia Huang snorted again, thinking of the scene of being threatened face to face by Jiang Ruxian that night.

"You don't have to be so cautious. Although she is a little paranoid, she has a good heart, and she is not a person who kills innocent people regardless of good and evil." Jiang Lan looked at her and said.

"Then I was almost killed by her, I guess I should be the most heinous person?" Emperor Xia mocked.

Jiang Lan didn't know why she was so resentful, and Jiang Ruxian couldn't ignore the overall situation if she troubled her.

Thinking about it, he really suffered a big loss at the hands of Jiang Ruxian.

"Feel sorry……"

"It really happened because of me."

After thinking about it, Jiang Lan looked at her with a very serious tone.

Emperor Xia did not expect that he would suddenly say apology.

There was silence for a moment.

"The winner of the Qianyuan Mansion competition will get a chance to enter Hualongchi." She said suddenly.

Jiang Lan asked in a little surprise, "Why didn't I know this news?"

Hualongchi is an important place of the royal family, which contains many auras and fortunes, and it has miraculous effects on healing.

"Of course you will know tomorrow." Emperor Xia said flatly.
