Chapter 118
At the beginning of the hour.

The sun is rising and the sky is white.

The Lord of Tianshu Peak greeted Zhao Xuan: "Let's go and ask for an explanation from the Wang family."

The master and apprentice returned to Wang's Yiyuan, only to find Wang Jian waiting at the door in person.

When Wang Jian saw the two of them, he took the initiative to say hello: "Sword Master, Zhao Shaoxia, Wang has found the mastermind behind the assassin."

"Please come in with me, both of you."

The master and apprentice looked at each other and followed Wang Jian's guidance to the side hall.

In the side hall, there sat a young man wearing a bright yellow python robe with narrow eyes.

Wang Jian took the initiative to introduce: "This is Sima Yuan, the eighth prince of the Jin Dynasty, and the mastermind behind the assassination of Zhao Shaoxia."

Hearing this, the young man stood up suddenly: "Marquis Wu Gang, please don't talk nonsense. This prince and this young hero Zhao have never met each other and have no grievances. How could he instigate others to assassinate him?"

Wang Jian winked at the housekeeper: "Wang Lin, tell me."

The housekeeper immediately told the Wang family when the Eighth Prince rescued Taoist You Fang, what Taoist You Fang said, and when he sent assassins in.

While generations of Southern Jin aristocratic families were marrying each other, they were also interpenetrating.

Because the Xie family had a great master, the Wang family ranked second in the Southern Jin Dynasty, but in fact, the power was greater than that of the Xie family.

The penetration into the Southern Jin Dynasty was the most profound.

When Wang Jian, as the second elder of the Wang family, launched a secret investigation by the Wang family to infiltrate various major forces.

How could you keep the Eighth Prince's troubles a secret?
Sima Yuan's face turned ugly when he heard this: "This is purely slander. This prince wants to see his father."

Wang Jian seemed not to have heard Sima Yuan's words, and just looked at Tianshu Peak Master: "With all the witnesses and material evidence, I wonder how the Sword Master plans to deal with it?"

Peak Master Tianshu immediately threw the ball to Zhao Xuan: "You are the one who was assassinated. You speak first."

Zhao Xuan looked around: "Is that Taoist You Fang here?"

If he could tell the fate of the Phoenix, he already believed [-]% of what Wang Jian said.

He is more interested in wandering Taoists than the truth.

The other party can easily deduce the existence of Phoenix's fate, which is definitely not an ordinary person.

Either they are gifted, or they possess secret skills.

The former is fine, the latter is extremely important to Zhao Xuan.

Normally, those with strong luck may not necessarily have a noble destiny.

On the contrary, those with noble destiny must have strong luck.

For him who urgently needs to gather his luck, having the secret technique of fortune-telling by hand is equivalent to installing a radar.

The efficiency is much higher than searching for people on the Dragon List one by one.

Wang Jian turned around and looked around. Before asking, the butler Wang Lin's face suddenly changed: "I came to arrest people, but I actually ignored the existence of Taoist You Fang."

Wang Jian's expression was equally ugly. When Wang Lin brought the Eighth Prince over, he did not think of Taoist You Fang.

Based on this alone, it can be inferred that Taoist Wandering is not as simple as found out.

He decisively ordered: "Go and arrest people."

The look in his eyes at Zhao Xuan had a hint of ambiguity.

The existence that even the master ignored was noticed by a young man in the Qi training realm.

It is indeed a famous sect with many successors.

After a while, Wang Lin left and returned.

"Elder, that Taoist wanderer has escaped."

Zhao Xuan frowned slightly: Escaped?

That would be bad.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Wang Jian directly turned the topic to the Eighth Prince: "What is Shaoxia Zhao going to do with him?"

His tone was casual and normal, not like he was dealing with a prince, but his own servant.

Zhao Xuan looked at the eighth prince and asked seriously: "What are you going to do to atone for your sins? Life?"

Sima Yuan's face was full of disbelief: "Bold maniac, I am the prince, you dare to kill me? Aren't you afraid of annihilating the nine tribes?"

If Zhao Xuan hadn't seen the flash of panic in his eyes, he might have thought that he was a worthless idiot.

Maybe the other party has been in palace battles all year round, so he feels that as long as he behaves harmlessly, he has a chance to survive.

Zhao Xuan easily broke through his fantasy and waved his hand: "Forget it, if it's not valuable, just kill him."

Sima Yuan saw that his expression did not seem to be hypocritical, so he hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute, young knight, this prince was bewitched by a demon and almost made a big mistake, but the crime will not lead to death."

"This prince is willing to redeem his sins with martial arts treasures." Zhao Xuan clapped his fingers: "Heaven-level martial arts, earth-level treasures, divine elixirs, and divine iron used to forge heaven-level treasures."

"Take ten of the above and I won't kill you."

Sima Yuan's eyes widened: "Ten items?"

Zhao Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "Why, you're not worth it?"

Sima Yuan almost choked on his saliva.

"It's not that it's not worth it, it's that this prince can't afford it."

If he had these treasures, there would be no need for him to marry the daughter of a real phoenix. He could just recruit a group of masters to help him rise to the top.

Zhao Xuan asked: "How many can you bring out?"

Sima Yuan replied without hesitation: "One piece."

Zhao Xuan smiled: "It seems you have no intention of living."

"I won't embarrass you. I'll leave that one as a burial gift for you."

As soon as he finished speaking, the long sword was unsheathed and struck down on Sima Yuan's head.

Sima Yuan subconsciously dodged, but was suddenly overwhelmed by an inexplicable aura, unable to move at all.

Not far away, Wang Jian looked at Sima Yuan with a half-smile.

Since he planned to side with the Zhenwu Sect and treat Sima Yuan, he had no choice but to be rude.

When death approached, Sima Yuan's face turned pale and he hurriedly shouted: "Three items."

Zhao Xuan's sword had cut off his golden crown, and the sword edge was almost touching his forehead.

"I'll give you another chance to add one more to the top."

Sima Yuan gritted his teeth and said: "I can't add more. I will spend all my money and take out three items at most."

At this time, Wang Jian said: "Young Master Zhao, the Eighth Prince is indeed not well-off. How about I find a way to get two pieces for you?"

If Zhao Xuan insisted on killing the eighth prince, he would not stop him.

If he just wanted treasure, he wouldn't mind being a smooth favor.

Not only did he please the Zhenwu Sect, but he also took advantage of the opportunity to save the eighth prince.

Zhao Xuan frowned.

Wang Jian's sudden speech broke his plan.

The Master of Tianshu Peak said slowly: "Elder Wang, don't you think that if you find the person behind the scenes, the Wang family can be wiped out?"

Wang Jian's face changed slightly, and he turned to smile and said, "Of course Wang will also offer a compensation."

Zhao Xuan said calmly: "Forget it, I don't want the compensation. I also ask senior to take action and execute the eighth prince."

He was most annoyed by the guys at the ends of the rat's tail.

He was the one who arrested people, and now he wants to be a good guy.

Wang Jian's expression changed slightly. He didn't expect Zhao Xuan to be so disrespectful.

He was deep in thought and quickly returned to normal: "If Mr. Zhao feels that the compensation is not enough, I can add a little more appropriately."

"The Eighth Prince is young and ignorant, I hope you can give him a chance."

Zhao Xuan thought for a while and said, "Didn't the Eighth Prince say that everything is bewitched by monsters?"

"Before noon, if he can bring the demon to me, I am willing to make less compensation."

He offered compensation, but in the end it was for Taoist You Fang.

Therefore, he was extremely disgusted with Wang Jian's intervention.

As soon as he finished speaking, a guard hurried over: "Elder Qi, there is a wandering Taoist outside the door. He said you were looking for him. Can you bring him in?"

Wang Jian, realizing that the wandering Taoist was extraordinary, immediately walked out and said, "This is an honored guest. I should go and receive him personally."

After a while, Wang Jian led a plainly dressed Taoist in.

The Taoist held a large flag and wrote the four words "Iron mouth cuts straight".

The next moment, a head flew up.

Taoist You Fang found that the eighth prince was completely worthless.

As for compensation?

How can pleasure and grudges make people feel good?

Besides, if Sima Yuan is killed, won’t the Wang family still be there?
