C728 728 Killing without mercy

Liu Qian Xun pointed to the piece of jade with Liu Ruo Qing and said: "In other words, your family must be at least of the marquis' rank."

Liu Ruo Qing grew up to be eighteen in the twenty-first century, so she was not too familiar with the regulation of ancient clothing and decorations. However, Liu Qian Xun had lived in the Marquis Mansion for ten years and had also been a State Grandmaster for many years, so he was definitely clear about this.

Liu Ruo Qing held the jade in her hand tightly.

"As far as I know, no one surnamed Huang had the ability to annihilate a marquis' or even a marquis' family."

Liu Qian Xun's words made Liu Ruo Qing understand.

If it wasn't the Huang Family, then it was the Imperial Family.

"Then does Master know of any Mansion of the State or Marquis' House with the surname Jiang?"

To be able to reach the level of a duke, one must know their surname.

"Not in Easternum, but in another country."

"Where?"

"xieqing."

Liu Qian Xun answered with certainty, "xieqing, the home of Empress Liu Cheng He and the Jiang family."

"Liu Cheng He's Queen?"

Liu Tian Xin was startled, "Isn't that Liu Tian Xin's outer sect?"

Liu Qian Xun nodded his head, "That's right, Liu Tian Xin's outer sect is known as the Jiang Guo Mansion, which is used to guard the borders of the xieqing. If the xieqing could become one of the four nations, the Jiang Family would have done a great service.

Liu Ruo Qing was shocked by these words. She never thought that she would be associated with the xieqing.

"In other words, if I go to the Jiang Guo Mansion and look into it, I will know if my background has anything to do with the Jiang Guo Mansion?"

Liu Qian Xun nodded.

He brought this girl along and lived for more than a thousand years, wholeheartedly thinking about revenge for Yu'er. He was not clear about the matters regarding xieqing.

If this girl really was someone from Jiang Family, she only needed to go there and investigate.

Liu Ruo Qing held the jade pendant in her hand, and had a faint feeling that her background might really be related to the Jiang Guo Mansion s of the xieqing.

She thought about Liu Tian Xin who looked exactly like her, and how she felt so much pain that she cried when she heard that she had been burned to death. She thought about how close she looked to Liu Tian Xin, and she felt more and more that maybe she and Liu Tian Xin were siblings from the same mother.

Empress Jiang, Jiang Guo Mansion …

Liu Ruo Qing had a lot of thoughts in her mind, but they were just fragments at the moment. If she wanted to combine them, it would instantly become a mess.

And the royal family that the servant spoke of, was it Liu Cheng He?

Liu Ruo Qing shook her head. At the moment, many things were hypothetical, and only when she checked if the Jiang Guo Mansion still existed, would she be able to confirm her hypothesis.

Yan Yuan rushed to the northwest along the way, traveling day and night, and exhausted several horses to death in the middle. When he was a few hundred kilometers away from the northwest border, he finally found the figures of Liu Qian Xun and Liu Ruo Qing.

"Yan Yuan?"

When Liu Qian Xun saw Yan Yuan, he let out two soft laughs, "I didn't think that you would come personally."

At this time, Yan Yuan's expression was so cold that it could turn into frost. He no longer had the gentleness and gentleness of a junior to a senior, but instead, a ruthless aura condensed in his eyes. "Mr. Liu, let Qing Er go, this king will let you live."

Not long after he left the capital, Yan Yuan found an excuse to send away the imperial guards that the Kaiser had sent out. Right now, only his own personal guards and the few from the Pavilion of Heavenly Secrets remained by his side.

Liu Qian Xun looked at Yan Yuan, and laughed twice: "Prince Jing, we are near the northwest border, there are many of us here, do you really think you have the ability to kill me?"

Yan Yuan's eyes flashed, using his eyes to signal the secret guards in his surroundings to save them, but he only saw Liu Qian Xun looking at Liu Ruo Qing who was beside him, and said: "Since Prince Jing is here to personally pick you up, you can go back now."

Liu Ruo Qing was startled, she looked at Liu Qian Xun in shock, and her eyes were filled with disbelief: "Master, you're letting me go?"

It wasn't that Liu Ruo Qing was overthinking things, but how could the old man possibly let her go the moment Yan Yuan came all the way from the capital?

She did not believe that the old man would be so easy to talk to. Moreover, he had already said that there were too many People from the Divine Artefact Hall around and Yan Yuan might not be able to rescue her from his hands.

Other than Liu Ruo Qing, even Yan Yuan was stunned. Along the way, he travelled day and night, rushing over, but he had never thought that he would be able to take Qing Er away from Liu Qian Xun so easily.

What the hell was he playing?

Liu Qian Xun looked at the few doubtful gazes in front of him, and let out a few loud and meaningful laughs. Looking at Yan Yuan's expressionless face, he said: "What? Does Prince Jing feel that this old one is plotting something? "

He stroked his slightly growing beard, looked at Yan Yuan, and continued to laugh: "Then why not Prince Jing guess what kind of scheme this old man is playing?"

Yan Yuan frowned, seeing Liu Qian Xun's confident look, his expression shivered. He naturally guessed Liu Qian Xun's intentions.

The reason he had easily returned Qing Er back to him was naturally to arouse the suspicion of others and make them think that Qing Er was with Shen Ji Hall.

When such news reached the ears of the Kaiser or the court officials, they naturally thought that Liu Qian Xun had purposely placed such words in his eyes. At that time, even if Qing Er had a hundred mouths, it would be hard to say.

Fortunately, all of the people around him were his trusted aides, and after killing Liu Qian Xun, there was no one left to connect Qing Er with the Shen Ji Hall anymore.

Right now, Yan Yuan clearly knew what trick Liu Qian Xun was playing, to be able to let Qing Er easily return to his side.

Immediately, he cupped his hands at Liu Qian Xun, "Then I ask Mr. Liu to return Qing Er to this king."

Liu Qian Xun laughed, and said to Liu Ruo Qing with a sidelong glance: "Go, little girl, from today onwards, the relationship between you and me as master and disciple will be ended."

"Master."

Liu Ruo Qing's eyes became hot. Even though Master had been using her, but to have her ruthlessly sever their relationship as master and disciple, that was definitely something she couldn't do.

"Qing Er."

Yan Yuan quickly went up, as if he was afraid that Liu Qian Xun would go back on his words. He pulled Liu Ruo Qing to his side and felt this familiar aura.

"Qing Er, let's go."

Yan Yuan brought Liu Ruo Qing back to his horse, and turned to look at the people around him, it lacked the gentleness from before, and now it had a tinge of killing intent.

A few of the secret guards obeyed. After Yan Yuan left with Liu Ruo Qing, they surrounded Liu Qian Xun.

"The prince has ordered me to kill him!"
