Deng Fan was startled when he heard it. He looked at Du Xue in disbelief and asked, "Is this really okay?"
"What's the problem?" It's just a maze. " After Du Xue finished speaking, she turned around and walked towards her bedroom.
Not long after, Du Xue took out a piece of yellow cloth and gave it to Deng Fan, "This is the so called treasure map."
Deng Fan curiously took the treasure map and looked at it. It turned out to be a square piece of yellow cloth, embroidered with white and red lines to form a maze. The white line was the maze, and the red line was the route from the entrance to the red dot in the maze.
This maze wasn't that complicated, and Deng Fan could almost remember the rough structure and route of the maze with just a glance.
"I'll leave this treasure map in your custody!" Du Xue suddenly said.
"Why should I take care of it?" Deng Fan asked as he raised his head in shock.
"It's useless for me to keep it. I hope you can use this treasure map to find this maze." Du Xue said.
When Deng Fan heard it, he said, "It's very difficult to find the location of the maze just by relying on this maze map, there isn't even a single clue."
"So, it doesn't matter whether this map exists or not. Some people who don't know anything think that they can dig up treasures that have been buried for a thousand years just by obtaining this map." Du Xue said.
"Even so, you should still keep such an important thing as a souvenir. In any case, I have already memorized the contents of this map." As Deng Fan said this, he returned the treasure map to Du Xue.
Du Xue did not immediately extend her hand to take it, and asked Deng Fan in shock: "You really only took a look and wrote down the map?"
"It's not difficult for me." Deng Fan said indifferently, as if this kind of shorthand was very normal.
"Since you said so, it doesn't matter whether I keep the map or not. I think it's better if I keep it." After Du Xue finished speaking, he kept the treasure map from Deng Fan.
"Thank you for your trust. Such an important thing is willing to show it to me." Deng Fan said gratefully.
"Why did you suddenly say such strange words? Haven't we always trusted each other? " Du Xue asked in shock.
"Right, you're right. I only said one sentence more." Deng Fan said.
Du Xue carefully rolled up the treasure map, and then asked Deng Fan: "What do you think about this treasure map?"
Deng Fan rubbed his chin, and said while pondering: "I think this should be a map of the underground tomb."
"I think so too." Du Xue nodded in agreement, "I just don't know where this mausoleum is located."
"I think it should be in Mooncloud City, right?" Deng Fan extrapolated, "This will have to go back to the history of the Moon Worshipping Conference."
"I don't know much about the history of the Mooncloud Assembly, so I might have to consult with the doyens." Du Xue said, "They might know more."
"Yeah, we can find a chance to get to know them." Deng Fan nodded.
"What I'm worried about now is how many more of Duan Wuxie's henchmen are still hiding in the guild." Du Xue frowned.
"We can make an example of them before we act." Deng Fan suggested.
"You mean to use Tang De's death to scare away those who have ulterior motives?" Du Xue asked.
"That's right, leave this matter to me!" Deng Fan said, "You just need to sit and watch."
"What exactly are you going to do?"
"First, gather all the people involved, including the Elders and the Elders." Deng Fan then explained his own plan.
Three days later, according to Deng Fan's plan, all the elders and elders that had the authority to speak out in a discussion would gather together at the Mooncloud Assembly Headquarters for a banquet.
There were more than ten people in the main hall, including some of his lackeys. There were more than a hundred people in total.
During the feast, everyone toasted to Du Xue one after another. As they were in the middle of eating and drinking, someone suddenly threw a shattered wine cup, smacking the table angrily with it.
The noisy hall immediately quietened down. Almost everyone turned to look at the person who slammed the cup on the table.
He was a small leader called Lu Zhan. Although his position was not big, he had a fiery temper. In fact, he was just a pawn in Deng Fan's plan. The reason why Deng Fan chose him was because he was unambitious, irritable and simple-minded. He would open his eyes to money and easily bribe.
At this time, he heard Lu Zhan angrily say: "Elder Tang, your bones are not yet cold, but we are actually here eating and drinking, what kind of logic is that?"
The moment he said that, a wave of curses followed. However, there were also voices of agreement. There were some who remained neutral and remained silent.
Deng Fan had been paying close attention to the reaction of the crowd, paying special attention to those who expressed their agreement. This was because these people were likely to be his henchmen, and they at least had a good relationship with Tang De.
Deng Fan only needed to glance at the crowd to know if they were in favor of or opposed to Lu Zhan's words, and they would take note of those people who sympathized with Lu Zhan one by one.
After a while, someone suddenly stood up and said: "I just want to be fair. Regarding Elder Tang's death, I hope the president can give us an explanation. At the very least, we need to find out who killed Elder Tang. Otherwise, how can our lives be safe?"
The moment this was said, there were many voices of agreement. Many people who were previously neutral also expressed their agreement.
Many people were like this, not daring to show their face. They had to first have someone stand out to follow.
Deng Fan had also expected this outcome, but he suddenly shouted out: "Calm down everyone! "Actually, I already knew who killed Elder Tang a long time ago."
"Who is it?" Many people wanted to know the answer.
"Before we announce this person, let me ask everyone a question." Deng Fan said solemnly, "To attempt to usurp power and seize the throne, what kind of crime is that?"
"The punishment is death!" Lu Zhan immediately replied.
"Good answer!" Deng Fan immediately gave Lu Zhan an appreciative look, and then turned to the person who asked the question: "Do you have any objections?"
"Of course not. To commit such a heinous crime, he deserves to be killed!" the man replied.
Deng Fan swept his eyes across the crowd again, and asked loudly: "Does anyone have any objections to this answer?"
After a moment, no one dared to make a sound.
"I don't think so." Deng Fan continued, "It was precisely because Tang De instigated me to cooperate with him in order to seize the position of President. The person who killed Tang De is me. "
In fact, the one who killed Tang De should be the Knife Scar Li, but Deng Fan purposely said that to raise his own deterrence level.
With this said, everyone was emotionally moved. Other than the few people who knew about it in the morning.
Deng Fan continued, "No one needs to panic, and no one needs to be surprised. Because I believe that everyone here is loyal to the President. As the hall master, I also advocate for everyone to respect and trust one another just like the guild leader. Thus, I have changed the rules of the Assembly to allow everyone to avoid death. No matter who it is, once they discover it, they will end up like this cup! " After saying that, the power in the hand holding the wine cup exploded. With a "clang" sound, the glass cup was instantly shattered.
This shocking strength caused everyone to be stunned and their faces to change.
Some people couldn't help but touch their necks while others touched their chests. It was obvious that they were greatly intimidated.
After that, with the assistance of Deng Fan, Du Xue's position as the guild leader continued to be consolidated, allowing the Moon Reverence Assembly to pass through a period of peaceful development.
One night, Deng Fan stood alone on the balcony, gazing at the ocean scenery in the distance. While he was thinking about something, someone suddenly hugged him from behind.
The soft jade was warm and fragrant, so the one that appeared behind Deng Fan at this moment could only be Du Xue.
"What are you thinking about?" Du Xue softly asked from behind Deng Fan, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Deng Fan didn't answer immediately. Instead, he slowly turned around and supported Du Xue as he stared at her and said, "Xiao Xue, why don't we get married …"
Du Xue blinked her eyes and said, "You were thinking about this just now?"
Deng Fan nodded and continued, "Right now, your position is basically stable, it's time to worry about our matters."
"When are you going to get married?" Du Xue asked.
Deng Fan was overjoyed upon hearing this, and said: "So you're saying that you agreed to it?"
"I've never objected to it!" Du Xue said.
"Since you agree, I hope the sooner the better!" Deng Fan said, "How about tomorrow?"
"Tomorrow?" Du Xue was startled, "Isn't that a bit too hasty? It'll take at least a few days to prepare, won't it? "
"Since you said so, then we should set the time for the wedding in three days." Deng Fan said.
"Alright, I have no objections."
"Then it's settled." Deng Fan was obviously very excited, as he hugged Du Xue tightly after speaking.
Leaning against Deng Fan's chest, Du Xue could clearly feel Deng Fan's heartbeat increase in speed, yet her heart was calm like still water, and she couldn't feel the waves rising. Even though she had a lot of things she wanted to say, she didn't know where to start, so she could only reply with a period of silence.
Two days passed in a flash.
That night, Li Yunshao went from the Wen Du to Mooncloud City, and when he returned home, it was already past ten o'clock, and there was already a bit of weariness on his face.
"You're back!" Su Xiaobei just came out of the bathroom wearing a loose pajamas, and when she saw Li Yunshao, he immediately smiled and went to welcome him.
Li Yunshao only replied with a faint "En" before asking again, "Did you miss me?"
"Of course, I miss you every day." Su Xiaobei said as she came in front of Li Yunshao and gently wrapped her arms around his neck. She quickly kissed his mouth, then let go of his hand and said: "Quickly go take a bath, your entire body is reeking of sweat."
"No rush. Tell me what you've been doing for the past few days." Li Yunshao suddenly asked, his eyes faintly falling on Su Xiaobei's body, his expression heavy.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Su Xiaobei blinked her eyes in bewilderment, "I've been filming recently!"
"What about other than filming?" Li Yunshao asked immediately.
"Martial arts training." Su Xiaobei said.
"What else?"
"Why do I have to report this to you every time you leave?" Su Xiaobei asked somewhat displeased.
"Because I care about you." Li Yunshao said.
"Other than acting or practicing martial arts, there's nothing else." Su Xiaobei replied perfunctorily, then turned to leave.
"Wait a minute, where are you going?" Li Yunshao immediately reached out and grabbed Su Xiaobei.
"To sleep, of course. Where else?" Su Xiaobei frowned.
"Why are you lying?" Li Yunshao stared at Su Xiaobei, his tone sounding serious.
