"Little Fan, it's all thanks to you this time that Uncle Murong is saved." Lingyun, Susu, Fan Mu, Xing Yu, and Murong Yi were relaxed as they sipped their fragrant tea.

"Every generation is stronger than the previous. Kid, I really admire your intelligence," Murong Yi praised. "Xing Yu, ah, Xing Yu, you really did find the right person."

"Eh, I'm sorry about what you said. At that time, I was just a little hot-headed, so I tried it out when I saw how unique these kids' thoughts were." Xing Yu shook his head, patting Fan Mu on the shoulder, then asked doubtfully, "Hey, where's Uncle Hu, why is he gone?"

"Oh? Uncle Hu said that my father went back because he had something to discuss with him. " Ling Yun explained.

After sipping a mouthful of fragrant tea, Murong Yi had a look of contentment on his face. A few days in prison wouldn't be so easy. Even if they weren't tortured, according to the procedures of the hearing, interrogation was inevitable throughout the night.

"Didn't you guys go to the academy? Why are you loitering here?" Murong Yi smiled. The kids didn't seem to be worried at all, it was only a little more than a month since Ming Chen Academy's entrance ceremony.

"Ah ah ah, uncle, if you didn't say it, I would have already forgotten. Ah ah ah, what should I do? It took me almost five days to finish this, and I would be able to sleep soundly in the future," Susu exclaimed. Indeed, if she didn't hurry up, it would be difficult to reach the academy before the start of the term.

"Haha, young lady, you're really interesting. Oh right, young man, I have a suggestion, I don't know if it's reliable or not." Murong Yi took out a paper-like item from his chest pocket, opened it and took a look. It was actually a map of several empires.

"This place is called the Pu River, there's a prosperous ferry there that we can cross by boat, because we don't have to take a detour. It's possible that it will be ten days earlier than you guys. How about we give it a try?" Murong Yi suggested.

"Oh, but how, Uncle Murong?" Fan Mu asked.

"That's easy, I'll give you this map. Help me take care of Little Yun and that little girl." Murong Yi said with raised eyebrows.

"Hmph, who needs his protection. Uncle, what are you talking about?" Sue pouted and looked at Murong Yi unhappily.

"Haha, it's really fun, okay, we'll be leaving tomorrow, we'll have to be careful on the way, I won't stay for too long, I've wasted a few days, I need to hurry over to the Standing General, then we'll see you again, Xing boy." Saying that, he got up and opened the door.

"We'll leave tomorrow morning," Xing Yu said.

"It's not good to stay here any longer." Leaving behind some thought-provoking words, Murong Yi disappeared into the night.

"Then little fellows, your residences have already been arranged. I still have some matters to attend to here. If there's anything I don't know, I can just ask the guard at the entrance." Xing Yu arranged. His eyes revealed a ghostly light as he left by himself.

"What do you think of the Punishment Lord?" When Xing Yu disappeared, Fan Mu tilted his head and asked Su Su in a low voice.

Susu thought about it and said, "It's very mysterious. I can't see through it. There seems to be something behind it, and …"

"Very scheming!" Fan Mu took over Susu's words and sighed.

"..."

In the mysterious hall, a lonely oil lamp glowed with a weak light, lighting up a small area. There was a square table in the light, and from there, four voices could be heard.

"This is great news, I didn't expect it to be so successful, even surpassing my expectations," a man wearing a black windbreaker and a golden mask said with a hoarse voice.

"I think it's all thanks to Lord Xing's strong work this time. His superb acting skills are truly admirable." Dong Ping Wang smiled sinisterly as he pushed a jade plate towards his opponent.

"You can't put it like that, I almost slipped up in front of those kids," Xing Yu strongly refused. No matter what, he couldn't accept this indescribable courtesy.

"Ai, I'll leave Uncle Ping to you. You can accept it. Speaking of which, this borrowed knife that you used to kill someone was for real. Sima Kong is just like that, haha." The black-clothed man with gold facial hair chuckled as he praised him.

"No, this is all thanks to the tempting conditions you have set. I never thought that this fellow would be so unable to endure the anger." Xing Yu waved his hand, indicating that this merit didn't belong to him alone.

"Sima Kong, ah, Sima Kong. He was the one who took revenge for the tiger every day. In the end, he was truly defeated by a fierce tiger. Everything was fate!" He took back the jade tablet that Xing Yu was unwilling to accept and began to constantly stroke it, feeling the fluctuations of energy within.

"But I can just drag the Ling family in. Uncle Hu is a straightforward person, so I didn't expect him to be annihilated. But the Sima family is not someone to mess with, I'm really looking forward to," Chang said weirdly, the corners of his mouth raised in a cold smile.

"The biggest gain this time should be General Murong. Duke Ming's trick was just perfect. Murong Mu can be considered to be dead set on Duke Ming now. Relying on Murong's prestige, Ming Wang's society must be more stable," the golden-faced man said thoughtfully. Although General Murong's final reaction made him suspicious, he could be certain that Murong would not do anything that would harm them for the time being.

"Haha, it's not like Duke Ming has been doing this for one or two days, but this time, the teenager really surprised me. He should be around sixteen years old, yet he has such meticulous thoughts. Which one of you has his background?" King Dongping clicked his tongue, raised his eyebrows, and praised.

"You're talking about that Fan family youth, I think you really can't afford to offend him," Xing Yu said mockingly as he giggled.

"Oh? "Since there's actually such a person, then I really want to see just what kind of god he is. If he can be used as his own, then that would be the best outcome." King Dongping crossed his hands and placed them on the table. He supported his head with the back of his hand as he coldly stared at Xing Yu.

"Hey hey, I didn't provoke you. Why are you looking at me? I'm speaking the truth. Fan Kui, do you know?" Xing Yu was speechless as he impatiently explained.

"How could I not know about him? He was once a comrade of mine, but now he has disappeared. I heard that the Profound Emperor searched for him for five years, but there was no clue at all." King Dongping slightly tilted his head as he thoughtfully recalled this.

"He's Fan Kui's son …"
