Chapter 596 Fish And Bear Paws

Li Moding was very helpless. He knew that he and his son were in an awkward situation in Xu Han's team.

He also understood what was the most important thing to him and Great Xia right now.

Although he lived in Jianghu in his early years, he still firmly remembered the Dao of being an official in his heart, so he was good at finding the right and the left, and was also good at "climbing the dragon and attaching himself to the phoenix". Of course, this rhetoric was somewhat inappropriate for Li Moding , who was already a noble member of the royal family, but in fact, Li Moding had been doing this in Jianghu these past few years. It could not be said that he was deceiving others, but he had always placed the interests of the royal family first. Therefore, he had close contacts with the Scarlet Firmament Sect, which was in the limelight. In order to maintain a good relationship with him, he did not hesitate to suppress Xu Han and the others.

It turned out that not only was this not correct, but it could be said to be extremely stupid.

The Crimson Firmament Sect had become the trigger to stir up the conflict between the Great Xia Dynasty Hall and the Jianghu forces. He even resolutely stood in the Chu camp after the restoration of Chu. All of this reminded Li Moding of how stupid and ridiculous his previous decision was.

But now, he had to pay the price for his stupidity. He had no choice but to curry favor with Xu Han. At the very least, he did not offend Xu Han's bottom line. Only after successfully completing the mission of Great Zhou did he come into contact with the current crisis of Great Xia.

For this reason, he had been careful all the way, but it seemed that his son was unwilling to let him do as he wished.

Li Dingxian was naturally a very outstanding person. Regardless of whether it was as a royal family or an ordinary cultivator, he could be considered outstanding. Regardless of whether it was Li Moding or Li Yu Lin, they both believed that this was the case. However, Li Dingxian's temperament was different from Li Moding 's, probably because he had interacted with too many Jianghu people.

He was diligent and earnest, but he cared about the morals of Jianghu very much. He was far from being like Li Moding 's bureaucratic style. Instead, he had the bearing of a Jianghu chivalrous person.

This was not a good thing, at least in Li Moding 's eyes, it was not a good thing.

For example, Li Dingxian's impulsive temper almost caused them great trouble yesterday. Today, after Xu Han and Jiang Yue left, Li Dingxian, who was thinking about his friend, also secretly wanted to follow them. Li Moding knew that this child was like a father. Seeing this, he knew that this child was going to cause trouble for him, so he hurriedly followed him. However, he was still a step too late. He watched helplessly as Li Ding Xian rushed into Xu Han's room.

Li Moding knew that Jiang Lai had a very close personal relationship with Li Ding Xian.

Jiang Lai was loyal and loyal, and he had always been willing to serve his country. This situation was probably due to his unwillingness to be a slave of the Chu Dynasty. Li Moding also knew this.

However, the path of an emperor depended on his choice. It would be regrettable if Jiang Lai died, but if Jiang Lai really did save them, they would definitely reveal the whereabouts of everyone. At that time, if Great Zhou was delayed, then Great Xia's situation would be even more unbearable.

From Li Moding 's point of view, Xu Han's wisdom obviously wouldn't agree to such a decision. Therefore, when his son rushed into the room, the Li family's prince hurriedly followed behind and beat his son up in front of Xu Han.

After doing this, he glared at his son fiercely, signaling him not to speak any further. Then, he looked at Xu Hanyan apologetically and said, "Pavilion Master Xu, my son is used to acting recklessly. Don't take this matter to heart. It is entirely up to Pavilion Master Xu to make the decision."

Only at this moment did Xu Han regain his senses. He looked at Jiang Yue, who was beside him, and then at Li Dingxian, who was still angry but didn't dare to say anything else. He suddenly smiled and said, "This matter will be according to Little Prince's wishes."

…

Three days later, Jiang Lai would die.

It 's not easy to come up with a suitable rescue plan before then, According to Jiang Yue, there were nearly a thousand Saint Weapons in Yan Guang City alone, including no fewer than twenty Saint Sons and a terrifyingly powerful Saint Marquis. As for these other forces, they were not counted as the Dark Asura Palace. With Xu Han's understanding, if there were still one or two Yama guarding the city in the dark, the rescue would become even more complicated.

Therefore, the rescue plan had to be as clean as possible, and it had to be completed before the big shots could react. For this reason, everyone had to discuss it together until it was close to 11 o'clock before they came up with a feasible plan.

Everyone stayed at Jiang Yue's mansion. It was already late at night, and everyone had already fallen asleep. Xu Han, however, did not feel sleepy. He walked alone in the courtyard of the manor gate.

He thought about the fierce sword on Meng Liang's back, the Sword Mausoleum, the Half Demon, and the Demon Lord's blood essence. When all of this was connected, he smelled a huge conspiracy.

It was a conspiracy that could subvert the entire world. Xu Han had a premonition that once his speculation truly became a reality, Great Xia and Chen Zhou would quickly collapse under the sweep of this conspiracy.

Thinking of this, his heart couldn't help but feel a little heavy, but at this moment, a figure blocked his path.

Xu Han raised his head sharply and looked at Li Dingxian. Li Dingxian appeared in front of him. At this moment, Li Dingxian was looking at him with a complicated expression.

"Is something the matter?" Xu Han asked.

Li Dingxian did not respond to Xu Han's question immediately. He looked at Xu Han and his gaze became complicated. This situation lasted for more than ten breaths of time. Then, he gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you for today's matter."

Xu Han was stunned for a moment before he realized what Li Dingxian meant. He shook his head and replied, "There's no need to thank me. I'm not helping you."

With Little Prince's arrogance, he naturally wouldn't take Xu Han's words seriously. In his opinion, Xu Han was not related to Jiang Lai, so he naturally wouldn't take such a big risk for him. Therefore, he added, "You don't have to say much. I will definitely remember this kindness in my heart. If I ever ask for anything in the future, I will definitely go through hell or high water."

After saying this, Li Dingxian cupped his hands towards Xu Han and turned around to leave.

Li Dingxian came and went quickly. Only when the little prince walked far did Xu Han regain his senses.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head. He thought to himself, "Why do people in this world like to talk to themselves so much? He really did not deceive Li Dingxian. Saving Jiang Lai was just an easy task for him. Even without Jiang Lai, who was imprisoned in the Sacred Palace, he would still have to make a trip to see what kind of mystery was hidden in the Sacred Palace."

As for whether the lives of the Great Zhou and Jiang Lai were important, Xu Han had never considered it before.

Just as he had never acknowledged the righteous name given to him by Mr. Lu of Tiance Prefecture, in Xu Han's eyes, a person's life was as important as the lives of 10,000 people.

He wanted to save everyone he wanted to save, just like Master Wei had taught him, he wanted fish and bear paws!
