Longevity starts with inheriting a friend's legacy

Chapter 59 Taking advantage of the situation!

Coming out of the Wu family mansion, Fang Xu watched Mu Xuan and the other two ride away on their Tayun-horses, and then looked at the Wu family mansion behind him.

Lu Qingluo has already rushed to Huangzhou Prefecture with the jade pendant, but the journey to Huangzhou Prefecture is long. Even if she rushes as fast as she can, it will take three to five days for the news of the Yun family to reach Qinghe County.

These three to five days are the most dangerous time for him. Not only does he have to guard against that old man Wuhuan, who is looking for people from outside to kill him, but he also has to be on guard against him becoming desperate and attacking him at all costs.

Lu Zhiyuan had been sent to the Shengxianhui headquarters in Qinghe County by Tao Ziheng in advance. In the entire Fenglin Town, there is only one person who can currently compete with Wuhuan.

Crown Prince Li Xun.

Do you want to take advantage of this momentum?

With Li Xun's protection, Wu Huan might not dare to act rashly.

But Lu Zhiyuan had explained that Li Xun was the apprentice of the butcher Zhao Wuji, and could face assassination by Wu at any time. If he got close to him, he would not necessarily be safer.

Headache!

Fang Xu rubbed his head.

He just couldn't figure out why he was involved in all these troubles when he was just planning to practice in Fenglin Town?
Weighing the pros and cons of all aspects in his mind, Fang Xu finally came to the Fenglin Town Government Office.

Although Li Xun might face assassination by Wu at any time, Fang Xu felt that in terms of probability, it was more likely that Wu Huan would get desperate and take action against him personally.

After all, the old man doesn't have many years left to live, and his son and daughter are both dead.

The lack of successors and the despair of seeing his child die would most likely make him take the risk, kill himself and escape from Maple Forest Town.

"Is the prince here?"

When he arrived at the government office, Fang Xu bowed slightly to the Golden Scale Guard standing at the door.

The two Golden Scale Guards saw that Fang Xu's face and body were covered in blood, and they couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Boy, what happened to you again?"

Fang Xu smiled bitterly and bowed: "I was ambushed on the way to see the prince, but I luckily escaped with my life."

The Golden Scale Guard looked at him suspiciously, then slowly made way and said, "The prince is inside, go in."

Walking into the government office, Fang Xu immediately saw Li Xun standing in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking up at the moon.

He is less than 1.4 meters tall, but he behaves in such an old-fashioned and arrogant manner, which makes people feel funny no matter how they look at him.

"Greetings, Prince." Fang Xu bowed slightly.

Li Xun turned around, looked at him and frowned, "Why are you covered in blood?"

After repeating the reason just now, Fang Xu cupped his hands and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I am not injured this time and will not delay Your Highness's affairs."

"Do you know who wants to kill you?" Li Xun frowned.

After the people from the Shengxian Society came to Fenglin Town, he had already prohibited all his subordinates from leaving the government office in order to avoid conflict with the Shengxian Society.

Therefore, he had no idea what happened during the day.

Fang Xu thought for a moment and said, "The Wu family invited the Ascension Society and captured my master."

"I guess that the old man of the Wu family is cruel and wants to wipe out the roots, so he secretly sent people to surround and kill me."

His words were ambiguous, and even if Li Xun knew his true feelings in the future, he would not think that he was deceiving him.

"Wu family? Doesn't he know that you are working for this prince?" Li Xun said with a gloomy face.

As a genius of the royal family, he has his own pride, but he has encountered many setbacks since coming to Fenglin Town. Not only has he not found any clues about the witch's affairs yet, but the life and death of the Yun family princess entrusted to him by his father and Yun Jin before they left is also unknown.

Later, when facing the Ascension Meeting, he was forced to hide in the government office for a whole day with his tail between his legs. Now, a native of a small Fenglin Town dares to be so rampant.

"Maybe he feels that the Ascension Society is behind him, and he doesn't... doesn't take you seriously..." Fang Xu said cautiously.

He originally wanted to use this to anger Li Xun and make him take people to destroy the Wu family.

However, Li Xun was surprisingly not angry. His expression changed slightly before he said calmly, "You continue to work for me. Even the Wu family won't dare to attack you in front of me." "You can stay in the government office tonight."

Fang Xu heard this and said with difficulty: "Your Highness, I appreciate your kindness, but I have a seriously ill sister at home who needs to be taken care of. I must go back."

Li Xun frowned, waved his hand irritably and said, "Then go back. Come to the government office tomorrow morning to wait for me."

"Jin Xiao, let the two go with him, don't let him die."

The investigation into the witch had to continue. Now that Yun Wan was gone, he didn't know much about what had happened in Fenglin Town.

Fang Xu was a party to the incident. He was smart and quite useful to him. He didn't want Fang Xu to meet with any misfortune at this time.

"Yes!"

A Golden Scale Guard bowed in response, and then personally selected two Golden Scale Guards who had reached the perfect martial arts realm to follow Fang Xu back.

The two Golden Scale Guards who have reached the Perfection Realm may not be a match for Wu Huan, but this is enough.

Because the Golden Scale Guards represent the royal family, no matter how crazy Wu Huan is, he dare not kill the royal Golden Scale Guards at this time.

After returning home with the two Golden Scale Guards, Fang Xu bowed to them and said, "Excuse me, you two can go inside to rest. I can just squeeze in with my sister."

The two Golden Scale Guards said coldly: "No need, the two of us can practice in the courtyard."

Seeing this, Fang Xu didn't say much. He directly fetched a basin of well water to wash the blood off his body, then changed his clothes, boiled a basin of hot water and came to Chu Mu's room.

"Who is Brother Fang Xu talking to?" Chu Mu asked softly.

Fang Xu made a sign for silence and saw through the gap in the window that the two Golden Scale Guards were standing in the courtyard like sculptures.

Then he lowered his voice and said, "From today on, don't leave the room for a moment."

Chu Mu looked outside nervously, then nodded and said, "I understand."

Fang Xu bent down, took off her shoes and socks, and washed her feet while sighing, "Mu, I'm sorry for putting you in such a difficult situation."

"Everything will be fine once this is over."

Chu Mu was a sensible girl. After hearing the deep apology in Fang Xu's words, she quickly comforted him, "Brother, what are you talking about? If you hadn't taken me in, I might have starved to death now."

"Mu now only wants to recover as soon as possible, and then become an alchemist to help his brother."

After wiping the water stains off her feet, Fang Xu sat on the bed, gently pinched her feet and said, "It will be fine. I will find a good teacher for you then."

"Our Mu will definitely become a famous alchemist in Dayu, or even in the world, in the future."

"That brother is the brother of the world-famous alchemist Chu Mu!" Chu Mu smiled while tilting his head.

"Brother, it's itchy~~" Chu Mu shouted shyly as she felt the slight itch coming from the soles of her feet.

Fang Xu was a little surprised: "Do you feel it?"

Chu Mu nodded: "I stood up twice today, and I was able to hold on for ten breaths each time."

"Brother Fang Xu, I think I should be able to get rid of my wheelchair in another month."

"It's just..." The little girl was stunned for a moment and said, "It's just that the blood food at home seems to be insufficient."

The blood food stored at home was not much to begin with, 500 kilograms of high-quality blood food and several hundred kilograms of low-quality blood food. After being consumed by the two of them during this period of time, the stockpile had run out.

Whether it is Fang Xu's cultivation or Chu Mu's recovery, they are inseparable from blood food.

"It's okay, I'll find a way." Fang Xu comforted.

The last time he went into the mountains with Li Xun, the Golden Scale Guards killed some ferocious beasts. The corpses of those beasts were hidden in the mountains by Fang Xu, and he had not had time to get them back.

It has been two or three days. I don't know if it has been discovered by other ferocious beasts. It seems that I have to find time to go back and check and find a way to transport the blood food back.
