Chapter 522 Brother Xu, Take Care!

In Hengroyal City in May, summer was bright and sunny.

The horse's hooves hurriedly galloped along the royal road of Heng Imperial City, passing between the city gates and the palace of Great Xia. The dust that was raised did not dissipate in the air for a long time, floating in the air. It was visible to the naked eye, and the blurry scene in front of him that was enveloped in scorching heat became even more unclear.

Jiang Zhichen and Qiu Fanping did not make much progress in their attacks on the Sword Dragon Pass and the Changwu Pass. They were stopped before Chen Zhouguo's pass, unable to enter and unwilling to retreat. Li Yulin was probably extremely anxious, so he wanted to use Cui Ting to increase his troops by two in order to obtain victory. After all, Great Xia had repeatedly used troops over the years, but he was still unable to do anything about it. Li Yulin was probably eager to win. However, at this moment, Cui Ting said that he was sick, so the document urging the soldiers and the three great countries to ask for help from the two of them, and the memorial of one person's illness was like a snowflake in the Crossing Imperial City.

Awoo!

In the courtyard, Aowu angrily jumped back and forth on the open space in the courtyard, trying to catch the butterfly that was flapping its wings in midair. Its eyes were wide open, as if it wanted to peel the butterfly's tendons. Of course, if the butterfly had these things. Of course, if he could catch it.

Aowu seemed to have completely adapted to his identity as a dog.

The well-behaved Evil Wolf descended the mountain and was forcefully used by him as a firewood dog pouncing on sh*t. A determined fierce pounce was gently raised by the butterfly and it avoided Aowu's killing move. Aowu couldn't help but fall to the ground fiercely after pouncing on the ground with a miserable expression. However, it did not seem to have the slightest idea that a wolf would appear in its mind. It stood up, shook off the soil on its body, and charged towards the butterfly again.

Xuan'er, who was squatting in Xu Han's embrace, lazily squinted her eyes. Occasionally, she would look at the treasure-fooling Aowu, but she was too lazy to pay attention to it.

It had been more than ten days since the incident between Guang Lingui and Liu Dingdang. After experiencing this incident, the two of them had no intention of doing anything else. They wanted to leave and find a secluded place. Xu Han had the intention to leave the other party behind, but he wanted to find some clues about the Half Demon by observing Liu Dingdang's situation, so as to save Liu Sheng who was still unconscious.

The other party was reasonable, Xu Han was also grateful for Xu Han's rescue at that time, so he left behind a few days. Xu Han had tried his best to investigate Liu Dingdang's condition in the past few days. Other than feeling that the other party's cultivation had become stronger, there was nothing else unusual about him. Xu Han could not find any clues, nor could he stay for long before the two of them could only leave.

Fortunately, although Xu Han hadn't made any progress on Liu Sheng's matter, Master Buku had testified that the demon disaster in Heng Imperial City had been completely eliminated. Even Nangong Jing couldn't find any excuse to make things difficult for Xu Han. Xu Han had done one of the three things that he had promised Xiao Ran.

As for Li Dongjun's promise to Xu Han about the cultivation of the Tantra Sect's fleshly body, Master Bu Ku did not shy away from it. He had already given Xu Han the ancient books that recorded the cultivation of the Tantra Sect's fleshly body. However, Xu Han had been busy with the matter of Liu Dingdang these past few days and hadn't had time to look through it.

Dong! Dong! Dong!

At this time, there was a hurry to knock on the door of the courtyard, accompanied by Su Mu'an 's crisp voice.

"Lord Manor Master! Not good, something big has happened! Big Sister Fang and Big Sister Nangong are quarreling at the gate again!"

Hearing this, Xu Han shook his head helplessly. He stood up from the steps of the courtyard, causing Xuan'er in his arms to accidentally land on the ground. The little fellow let out a dissatisfied cry, and the tip of his foot jumped onto Xu Han's shoulder again. He stared at Xu Han with wide eyes.

Xu Han knew that he was wrong and hurriedly reached out to touch Xuan'er's head to comfort her. However, he walked over to the courtyard gate and opened it. He saw the anxious Su Mu'an in his eyes.

"Lord Manor Master!" When the child saw Xu Han, he wanted to say something.

"I know." However, Xu Han did not give him a chance to speak. He interrupted Su Mu'an 's words.

This sort of thing had happened quite often these past few days. Nangong Jing didn't know if it was because he was too leisurely, so he always changed his methods to find trouble with Xu Han. I will send Xu Han to participate in some of the internal training of the Sword Handling Pavilion.

Such things are not uncommon, Normally, Xu Han's attitude was that one more thing was better than one less thing. After all, Xu Han stayed in the Sword Handling Pavilion only for the chance to enter the Scripture Handling Pavilion. The Scripture Handling Pavilion was jointly controlled by the Dragon Hidden Temple and the Xiao Ran of the Sword Handling Pavilion. Xiao Ran refused. Even if the Dragon Hidden Temple accepted Xu Han's kindness, there was nothing he could do about it. Therefore, Xu Han did not want to cause any trouble before he could do this.

However, these past few days, Xu Han had been busy investigating the situation inside Liu Dingdang's body. He did not have the mentality to meet the other party, but he did not expect the other party to become more and more intense. He had the posture of pulling Xu Han out and parading in the streets to show off.

"Oh, good!" Of course, Su Mu'an was full of doubts. Why did the head of his clan act like he didn't know what was going on? However, the little fellow who had always admired Xu Han very much did not probe into the reason behind it. It was just that he instinctively felt that it was normal for his Lord Manor Head to be able to accomplish anything.

"Then let's go." Xu Hanyan said. However, he suddenly seemed to recall something and said, "Oh right, Mu An, call me Big Brother Xu in the future. I am no longer the head of the Tian Ce Mansion . If others hear me, they will inevitably bring about criticism."

"Alright, Lord Manor Master." Su Mu'an nodded solemnly without the slightest bit of self-awareness that she had called the wrong name.

This was not the first time Xu Han had spoken to Su Mu'an about this matter, but this child's brain was like a single thread. No matter how much Xu Han emphasized this matter to him, there was still not much improvement.

Seeing that this time was similarly fruitless, Xu Han could only helplessly shrug his shoulders and allow the child to do so.

…

When Xu Han arrived at the main hall of the courtyard gate, Fang Ziyu was staring at the calm Nangong Jing with a red face.

The quarrels between the two of them were mostly like this. No matter how capable Miss Fang was, Nangong Jing was able to deal with them calmly with a single move that did not change.

Xu Han walked into the hall door, and Ye Hongjian, who was sitting at the side, threw him a bad look, as if she was harshly reprimanding him for always getting into trouble. Xu Han smiled apologetically at the other party, knowing that he was in a bad mood. Only then did he walk to Miss Fang's side.

"What's the matter?" Fang Ziyu frowned and asked. Seeing Xu Han, Fang Ziyu immediately grabbed Xu Han as if he had seen a savior.

"You're here, Xu. This old woman is mad at me!" Fang Ziyu said anxiously, but he couldn't get to the point for a long time.

At this moment, Nangong Jing stood up and looked at Xu Han with a deep gaze, "Young Master Xu really forgets things. Today is the day for the golden-robed swordsman of the Sword Handling Pavilion to discuss important matters. Normally, it's fine if you don't come, but you will also be absent today. Isn't it too much to put the matter of the swordsman on your shoulders?"

Hearing this, Xu Han was stunned. He then remembered that he had promised Nangong Jing that he would go to the Sword Handling Palace to discuss countermeasures against the Crimson Firmament Sect. These days, many unfamiliar faces had come to the Horizontal Imperial City. With the Sword Handling Pavilion's spies in the Horizontal Imperial City, it was not difficult to sense the peculiarities before the storm arrived. Therefore, Nangong Jing had just gathered the situation of the Sword Handling Pavilion to try to come up with a solution, but he did not want Xu Han to forget about this matter because of Liu Dingdang.

Nangong Jing probably guessed something from Xu Han's expression. Surprisingly, she did not taunt Xu Han at this moment. Instead, she restrained her anger and asked softly, "Has your friend ever been well?"

After all, Liu Sheng was rescued by Nangong Jing's people. Although Nangong Jing did not know the specific situation, he knew that Xu Han valued that friend very much, and that the other party had not awakened for some reason.

Xu Han wasn't used to Nangong Jing's sudden improvement in attitude. He couldn't help but be slightly stunned. It was only after a while that he regained consciousness that he shook his head and said, "Still hasn't awakened."

Nangong Jing glanced at the youth, but he quickly retracted his gaze. He glanced elsewhere, and for some reason, his tone lowered a little. He said, "My father and Mr. Du have quite a bit of friendship. As a master of Confucianism and Taoism, his attainments in medicine and dao are quite extraordinary. If you need it, I can."

"Really?" Before she could finish her sentence, Xu Han's eyes lit up. He seemed to be afraid that Nangong Jing would go back on his word. He hurriedly nodded and said, "Thank you, Lord Nangong!"

I wonder if I didn't expect Xu Han to accept this kindness so straightforwardly. Or perhaps for some unknown reason, a strange expression flashed across Nangong Jing's face, but it was quickly concealed by her. She regained her cold attitude and said in a deep voice, "Since that's the case, remember to come to the Sword Palace after noon today. Don't let us wait for you any longer."

After saying that, Nangong Jing quickly walked out of the manor. Her footsteps were exceptionally fast, and she seemed to be fleeing for her life. Xu Hanxin thought about Liu Sheng and didn't care about it, but when he raised his head again, he suddenly felt a murderous intent.

Just as he was about to investigate where this killing intent came from, Fang Ziyu walked up to him.

Eldest Miss Fang reached out and patted Xu Han on the shoulder as if she wanted to bid farewell to Jun. Then, she cupped her hands towards Xu Han and said seriously, "Brother Xu, take care!" After saying this, she glared at Xu Han and quickly left.

At this moment, Xu Han seemed to feel something. He turned to look at Ye Hongjian, who was sitting beside him.

At this moment, the other party was also looking at him.

The two of them exchanged gazes, and the killing intent became even more intense. Xu Han was shocked, and his face immediately revealed a bitter expression.
