C273

Outer city, east gate.

Chen Lao Dao had already died, and his house had become ownerless.

However, this ownerless courtyard house had become a forbidden area to most of the people in the outer city.

It was because the resident had killed a mysterious foreigner who was at the peak of Celestial Phenomenon Mirror's fourth level in an instant …

Within the house, there was a bluestone floor, a copper cauldron in the middle, a main door to the south, and a main house to the north. There were two rooms on each side of the house, each with a standard courtyard structure.

Xia Xinghe sat on the rattan chair behind the copper cauldron with his eyes closed, as if he was resting. Even when Lan Yiyi walked into the courtyard, he didn't open his eyes.

"Young master." Lan Yiyi walked to Xia Xinghe's side and asked softly, "Are we going to take revenge on the Ye Clan?"

"The Ye Family is not worthy enough for me to seek revenge." Xia Xinghe lightly replied.

After saying this, Xia Xinghe suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from his rattan chair. His gaze then fell on the tightly-shut scarlet wooden door, which was the main entrance of the main residence.

Lan Yiyi curiously followed Xia Xinghe's gaze and asked in puzzlement, "Young master, what is so interesting about a sect?" "But then again, this door is completely spotless. Zuo Xiao must have taken care of everything here in advance …"

Lan Yiyi hadn't finished speaking when Xia Xinghe suddenly shook his head, but he didn't say anything.

Xia Xing didn't say anything, but from the main house, a burst of hearty laughter came without warning.

With a creaking sound, the main house's wooden door was pushed open. Jing Er and Jing San walked out of the house one after the other.

"We, the two brothers, have come uninvited. I hope Young Master Xia does not blame us." Jing Er was as straightforward as ever. He cupped his hands and bowed towards Xia Xing while taking the lead to apologize.

"Young Master Xia, we meet again." A trace of a reverent smile appeared on Jing San's savage scarred face.

Jing Er had never seen Xia Xingchen's true abilities, but Jing San had a deep understanding of them and had even deeply engraved them into his heart. Therefore, Jing Er was more respectful towards Xia Xingchen, and Jing San was more respectful towards him.

"When did you arrive?" Lan Yiyi widened her beautiful eyes as she looked at Jing Er and Jing San with a puzzled expression.

"Before I killed Ye Tianjiao, they had already arrived." Xia Xinghe faintly smiled.

Actually, with his terrifying divine sense, Xia Xinghe already knew that Jing Er and Jing San were inside the main house. He pretended not to know, and waited until Lan Yiyi walked in, so that he could stand up and test whether Jing Er and Jing San were here for a sneak attack, surveillance, or something else. After all, XingXia did not have a hundred percent confidence in the Martial Imperial Manor.

"Young Master, don't blame me." Jing San revealed an awkward smile and said truthfully, "We are also afraid that our sudden appearance here would affect Young Master's plans. After all, our identities are a little special … …"

He actually didn't know that Chu Rong had ascended the throne, but he had a premonition that Xia Xing definitely wasn't here just to meet up with Prince Wu. He was definitely plotting an even bigger scheme.

The most important thing was that Xia Xinghe had caused such a huge commotion in Dingguo City, causing a chain reaction that completely exceeded the Shadow Army's expectations …

Both the Shadow Army and Prince Wu had never thought that the Jinyang Marquis of the Jin Kingdom would be able to suppress their army without even saying a word!

Because of this, the true elites of the imperial city had sensed the danger. Their attitude toward Xia Xinghe had become even more unpredictable, including Prince Wu!
