After Qingwu left, a light cough from the inner palace broke Qiao Qiao's train of thoughts.

"Xiyue." Joe called softly, still walking inwards.

"Your majesty." Xiyue nodded slightly, her face filled with emotion.

"You and Yingyue are also one of those eight, right?" Qiao Qiao still knew the answer, but he still hoped to hear it from her own mouth.

"In reply to the Emperor, this servant is, but Yingyue is not. She is only a young lady who has yet to experience the world." Xiyue nodded in acknowledgement.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Joe was still frowning.

"Because the previous emperor didn't have the trust of this servant!" "But now, this servant believes that the Emperor is no longer the former Emperor." Xiyue raised her head, and her eyes that were like water deeply met Qiao Qiao's eyes that were filled with questions.

"You're honest." However, it was fortunate that he did not tell her about the matters at hand. Otherwise, with the personality of the person in question, hearing those words from him would only be treated as child's play for a short while. Perhaps, it might even be bad news!

"Your servant just doesn't want to lie to the emperor anymore." Xiyue was slightly startled. She originally thought that the Emperor would fly into a rage, but she didn't expect him to react in such a manner.

"You did the right thing." "Xiyue, I'm going out. Lie down in the inner hall. Don't come out, I'll give orders not to disturb anyone."

"Your majesty, the waves at the peak of the mountain are endless. If you want to kill the emperor's men, there are countless of them. It's dangerous outside, where are you going?" Xiyue had a worried look on her face.

"You don't have to worry about that. Those who can kill me in the future have yet to be born!" Qiao Qiao's arrogant red lips were tightly pursed.

Xiyue wanted to open her mouth, but her lips slightly moved, but she didn't say anything. She believed that the current Emperor had the ability to protect her.

As before, Qiao Qiao quickly changed into night clothes. Her black robes covered her face, making her appear abnormally capable. Seeing Qiao still proficient in jumping out of the window, Xiyue couldn't help but laugh. Why does her emperor look so much like an experienced gentleman?

However, what Xiyue didn't expect was that her emperor was absolutely a modern divine thief. He didn't even have the ability to travel the world stealthily!

Qiao Qiao still avoided wave after wave of imperial guards patrolling the palace. Everyone's eyes were focused on the surroundings of the palace. As long as they left the palace, the other guards would be relaxed, especially in a place like the Cold Palace, where nothing was left, Qiao Qiao swaggered his way in.

"You really can still come." A melodious voice rang out from the top of Joe's head. Sure enough, the technique had already arrived.

"You're on time." Joe continued to grin.

"Even if the imperial guards were so heavily guarded, you could still make it out." Nie Yan pursed his lips. He was still wearing the same silvery-white fox mask that he'd always wore. Today, however, he appeared exceptionally crafty.

"What if I don't come today?" Joe was still frowning.

"Then this sovereign has misjudged someone." "Yes," Ye Mo answered without hiding anything.

"Oh? Since the palace master has not misjudged us, I am afraid that we have misjudged her. " Joe continued to sneer slightly.

"What do you mean?" Hearing that Joe still had something in his words, Yu Fu could not help but frown and ask.

"May I ask how much money you need to trade for a head of a family?" Qiao Qiao still raised his brows with a lazy expression, but his eyes emitted a questioning light.

"That depends on whose head it is!" "Yes," Ku'Sin replied.

"What if it belongs to the Emperor of Qiao?" Joe was still frowning deeply.

Death's Head suddenly looked up and looked suspiciously at Joe.

"Could it be that Asgard Master doesn't know?" Although it was a question, every word was still full of certainty. "Are you still saying that those assassins from Absolute Palace can take over private jobs now?" Joe continued to ask.

He knew that Qiao Qiao still meant the same, but the Qing Jue Palace had indeed not received any deals to assassinate the Emperor of Qiao, among the assassins, the Qing Jue Palace had always had a ranking, as long as it involved members of the imperial palace, it could only be executed with the approval of the Lord, not to mention a person as big as the Emperor of Qiao, if the Qing Jue Palace did not want to assassinate him, then they would only want the Emperor's head …

He had warned her not to act rashly without his permission. It seemed that she did not take his warning to heart.

"Look at the Palace Master's look of understanding. Do you know who it is?" Joe asked with a smile still on his face.

"This sovereign will settle the internal matters of the Pure End Palace and give the emperor an explanation." "Yes, sir," Nie Tian replied calmly.

"An explanation?" If it wasn't for me finding out in time, perhaps the palace master would have gone to the Underworld to account to me. " Joe continued to smile.

"Then what does the emperor want?" asked Death.

Qiao Qiao's still crafty eyes flashed. She finally asked a little bit. She said so much just to find some benefits and come back!

"I want to make a deal with the Qing Jue Palace." Qiao Qiao still said bluntly.

"What deal?"

"Buy all of the Palace Lords of Absolute Palace to assassinate someone."

"This sovereign is going to personally take action?" Nie Fen raised his eyebrows and said, "That price is quite high."

"What is the price for the Palace Mistress to personally step in?" She had plenty of money, so how could she be afraid of being unable to buy a killer?

"One hundred thousand!" "Yes," he replied.

Qiao once again slightly frowned. The price was indeed a little high, but once the Palace Master stepped in, it would be twice the result with half the effort. A hundred thousand taels of silver was still worth it!

"Sure!" "I will deliver a hundred thousand silver taels to the Qing Jue Palace in the future!" Qiao Qiao seemed as carefree as ever, but in reality, her heart was aching. She had thought of giving Pan Tong a big gift, but she didn't expect him to ask for so much!

"No, 100,000 gold!" The Art of Death said leisurely.

These few words were like a bolt of thunder that struck Joe's head. She looked embarrassed as she stared at him. Seeing that he didn't seem to be joking, she couldn't help swearing, "You f * cking go and snatch it!"
