"They were discovered, how could they be!"

The voice of that person was filled with utter disbelief. It was as if they were all lying to her.

The two maidservants at the side seemed to have long been unhappy. Seeing this, they sneered and looked at her, "Why are you not found out? Do you think that you are doing this in secret?"

Upon hearing this, someone at the side immediately asked in doubt, "What are you guys arguing about?"

How funny, was there anyone in this group who wanted to watch the show?

Xi Mengyao was suspicious, but then she heard someone say, "It's none of your business, quickly, catch the two of them."

"Left or right?"

The group of people discussed softly. Unexpectedly, the two maidservants couldn't help but scold them, "What exactly happened? "Why are you all doing this!?"

When the two maidservants questioned him, their voices were firm.

It seemed like the black robed men from before did not hold too high a position …

Xi Mengyao was speculating, but at this time, she suddenly heard someone kneeling on the ground and kowtowing. The sound was very loud, it was originally a soundless kowtow, and it produced such a sound.

Immediately after, she heard an incomparably mournful scream, but after the scream was heard, it was immediately cut off, as if her throat was instantly cut, and she abruptly stopped.

Xi Mengyao felt depressed, so she immediately turned her head to look, only to find that they seemed to have a little disagreement. She did not know why, but they had all gathered together, forming a circle.

She went closer, and when she could see the scene, the other side seemed to have stopped moving and slowly spread out.

She squinted and saw someone walking out from inside, holding onto something. When she came out, Xi Mengyao realised that it was a black robe.

Judging from that person's clothes, he should be a maid from the Duke of Guo's residence.

Xi Mengyao frowned, and thought, could it be that the little girl's aura is too powerful, and is being educated?

He actually dared to treat others like this in public. Furthermore, he was a servant girl from the Residence of State Duke …

No, I don't think so.

Xi Mengyao looked at her, puzzled. The man's ankle was twisted, and he was limping pitifully, but the people behind her were still mercilessly driving her away.

"What kind of person is this?" she whispered.

Xi Mengyao kept staring at the person who had his head lowered, only to see that person walking closer and closer. When she saw her face, Xi Mengyao was momentarily shocked.

That person, she … I've seen it...

No, not that man.

All she had seen were the same scars!

The burn mark spread across his face, leaving only his left eye. It was clean.

She frowned. Although she didn't know why, she felt a chill from the bottom of her heart.

Xi Mengyao wanted to leave, but right at that moment, the person seemed to have seen her, she raised her head, and her eyes met with her!

Xi Mengyao was shocked, and quickly turned her head to ignore her.

However, she soon felt that she was simply deceiving herself.

She bit her lips and turned around, only to discover that the person didn't seem to see her. He only stopped to look for a moment before lowering his head and walking out.

Xi Mengyao squinted and peeked half her head out from behind the tree to look. She realized that there was something wrong with their eyes.

It was as if he couldn't see anything clearly.

They walked slowly, stumbling, not moving away from the rocks until they came to a halt.

Thus, she didn't go any further and only sighed in her heart. She hid herself behind a tree and waited for the group of people to leave before coming out.

Looking at the group of people walking far away, Xi Mengyao frowned. "What cult …"

As she was thinking, she turned her head to look at the mysterious Gu Sha.

At this moment, she noticed that there was a very strange place here.

No one came to pay their respects to this ancient temple, but they cleaned it up very cleanly, just like any other temple. There was even a shrine.

Could this be their personal base?

As she thought about it, she lowered her body in an attempt to make a visit.

However, after she walked two steps, she heard a dog barking from inside.

Following that, someone scolded him and was about to come out. Xi Mengyao felt that it was not good and quickly retreated.

But after that, she didn't see anything. She had no choice but to shake her head, memorize the position, and then walk away.

After stepping into the city gate, she did not immediately return. Instead, she went to the side of Third Prince's Mansion and sat down in a small tavern.

People came and went here, but they were not ordinary families. It was clear that the people here drank too little.

The tavern could be said to be like a sparrow at a door. The wine banners outside all looked extremely lonely.

Fortunately, not too far away from here was the prince's mansion. No one dared to cause trouble here, so the inn was relatively safe.

Xi Mengyao casually walked in and found that there were still some customers sitting at two to three tables.

Seeing that she was indeed a guest, he yawned and greeted, "What do you want, Sir?"

After Xi Mengyao ordered two dishes, she found a seat next to someone where there were people and went over.

Her original intention was to check if anything had happened over here. She didn't want to hear him say anything, so as soon as she walked over, she heard him say: "Hey, have you guys heard?"

"What?"

"Recently, a monk from the Western Regions came over and said that he could control the hearts of people. I wonder what is going on in the prince's mansion."

It was just that she suddenly felt that something was up, quick, speaking of it, she heard that there was a demon technique in South Stream City, and she did not know how to use it even when she was lazy. Xi Mengyao immediately felt that something was amiss and wanted to stand up.

Just as she was about to speak, she saw the store's Attendant, who seemed to have seen something and stood beside her as if he was looking at her.

Xi Mengyao thought it was strange as she looked at the Attendant in the shop thoughtfully.

This person looked rather honest. He didn't come up to ask for anything, but just stood there quietly. It seemed like he had some sort of plan in mind.

Xi Mengyao did not want to cause trouble and immediately turned her head, not revealing her actions and goal. However, she noticed that the two people beside her had become more cautious in their conversation after they had charged directly at her.

Xi Mengyao could also tell that this person was most likely a spy here, and one that everyone knew about.

In that case, either the entire group would be bribed or the entire tavern would be in trouble. Besides, the problem was surely the prince's mansion.

Xi Mengyao squinted her eyes. She only felt that it was strange that the Third Prince was fine and well, why would they have such a person planted in their own residence.

Just as he was wondering, he heard a loud racket coming from the street outside. Someone shouted, "Come out! What are you guys doing?!"
