The arrogant imperial concubine arrives, the favorite of the regent

Pavilion Master Qian tossed and turned on the recliner in a curled-up posture, seeming to have lost some of his usual calm demeanor.

He and his men could not find out what important person Yun Mujiu had contacted, and they could not find any clues about the unknown master who taught Yun Mujiu superb medical skills. It is said that the master not only taught her medical skills, but also taught her other skills, such as playing the piano and dancing, practicing martial arts and swordsmanship, and the way of doing business.

Pavilion Master Qian couldn't figure it out and kept frowning. Envoy Duan also frowned when he saw the Pavilion Master's expression.

Envoy Duan pondered in his heart. This morning, the Pavilion Master asked his subordinates whether Princess Ye had come to Soul Stealing Yuanxi again during this period. He also checked it himself and found that Princess Ye had only come to Soul Stealing Yuanxi twice to purchase supplies. Later, Princess Ye opened her own medicine cabinet and no longer came to Soul Stealing Yuanxi to buy some rare medicines.

Now it can be said that the good medicines in Herb Hall are much more numerous and better than some of the medicines that their top killer organization specially buys and sells. Oh, it's really embarrassing! The chief asked him some recent news about Princess Ye, but he couldn't say anything useful.

Pavilion Master Qian had no idea what the rough-looking Duan Yi was thinking about in his heart. He was surprised that Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu really had feelings for each other, and was also surprised that he made no progress in his first attempt to investigate something. This was the first time he had failed.

When he realized that Ye Xiaohan and Yun Mujiu actually had feelings for each other, he also realized that Yun Mujiu might be protected by Ye Xiaohan. Otherwise, with the ability of Soul Stealer Yuanxi, how could he not find out Yun Mujiu's past of only eighteen years?

But thinking alone cannot solve the problem, and the confused mood will also affect one's external demeanor. Pavilion Master Qian, who rarely encounters difficult problems, is not as indifferent as before, but his expression changes unpredictably with the changes in his mentality.

Seeing that his master was troubled, Special Envoy Duan tried to change the subject.

"Master, do you think someone will come to take away the young master's body?" The Master has already sent someone to send a message to the East Asian Empire and is now waiting for a reply from there.

"Probably." Pavilion Master Qian held his forehead with one hand and said calmly, "If he's alive, we have to see him. If he's dead, we have to see his body. Even if the young master is just a child, even if he has turned into a corpse now, the person who asked us to find him must see him."

"I understand." Special Envoy Duan nodded.

After receiving the news of the young master's whereabouts, Pavilion Master Qian immediately asked his subordinates to collect the young master's bones and relics, waiting for the person who placed the order with him to respond in the future. Anyway, they found the person, and although the person is no longer there, at least they were able to find out the final whereabouts and get some of the bones back to the hometown for burial.

"Master Qian, what should we do next?" Envoy Duan asked again.

"Wait." Pavilion Master Qian narrowed his eyes slightly, "Wait for the reply from the person in the Eastern Empire. At the same time, we should also start to investigate the specific cause of death of the young master. We can't just wait for them to send back clues about the cause of death of the young master."

Special Envoy Duan understood, but he didn't know what to say anymore and the room fell silent again.

Pavilion Master Qian continued to curl up on the couch, squinting his eyes, and continued to think about the matter that had bothered him just now, which was about Yun Mujiu. At this point, he actually wanted to meet Yun Mujiu.

The sandalwood in the incense burner diffuses out in waves, and the fragrance is mellow yet rustic.

Suddenly, Pavilion Master Qian sat up from the recliner, startling Special Envoy Duan who was standing beside him.

A strange thought suddenly occurred to him, as if his idea of ​​exploring Yun Mujiu's secrets was wrong from the beginning. Why did he have a feeling that he could never figure out Yun Mujiu no matter what?

At present, there is no progress in investigating what important figures Yun Mujiu has had contact with, which has hindered the further investigation of whether Yun Mujiu is carrying any strange objects...

In fact, Pavilion Master Qian’s strange idea was not false, but he could not find any useful clues.

Because...some people hide very deeply, and some people block strongly.

The one who hid deep was Yun Mujiu, and the one who blocked the attack was Ye Xiaohan. The two husband and wife were using their own people to conduct some counter-detection measures against the killer of Soul Stealer Yuanxi...

Yun Mujiu didn't want to reveal the clues of Qiankun, and Ye Wang didn't want his wife to be searched, so they both took their own methods to deal with the investigation of the Soul Stealer Yuanxi...

At this moment, the Soul-stealing Yuanxi, which was closed today, received a letter.

Pavilion Master Qian looked at the letter in front of him and then looked at the killer.

"Who sent it?"

"Master, I don't know. Someone shot the letter into the attic with an arrow. We chased after him but couldn't catch up with him."

Pavilion Master Qian raised his eyebrows slightly. There were some of their people near the Soul-Snatching Yuanxi Pavilion. If someone nearby shot an arrow at the pavilion, it would definitely be intercepted by his people in time.

Moreover, if his people were near the attic, the man in secret would not choose to shoot arrows near the attic, but could only go far away and then shoot arrows from a distance.

The fact that he could shoot with such powerful long-range arrows and with such accurate archery skills, and that he could avoid the killers' daily patrols near the attic, shows that the messenger was no ordinary person.

But I don’t know, was the letter delivered by the writer himself, or by the writer’s subordinates?

If it was sent by the writer, then that person must be very capable. But if it was sent by his subordinates, then if his subordinates were so capable, then the writer must be even more capable.

Pavilion Master Qian had not yet realized the existence of a powerful person. What he didn't know was that the Night King had come to the Soul Reaper Pavilion and witnessed him lecturing his subordinates. He also didn't know that it was the Night King who asked the Cold Shadow Guard to deliver this letter.

Pavilion Master Qian opened the letter quickly with a vigilant mind and his expression froze.

There was only one sentence written on the letter: "Master Qian, see you in a few days."

There was no other content in the letter, nor was there a signature from the writer.

Pavilion Master Qian murmured, "Who wrote this? Not only did he know that I had come out of seclusion, he also knew my last name and that I had come to the Soul-stealing Tower in the capital!" That person even found out his whereabouts!

He felt a little depressed and guessed, "Could it be that it was written by Youming Jiuchong?" Youming Jiuchong told his subordinates that he would meet him another day.

But if it was written by Youming Jiuchong, why didn’t Youming Jiuchong reveal his identity?

Pavilion Master Qian had many puzzles that he couldn't figure out, and Envoy Duan and the other killers also couldn't figure it out, so no one at the scene could give Pavilion Master Qian an answer.

Pavilion Master Qian crumpled up the letter into a ball, and when he thought about what was said in the letter, he felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Was he overthinking it? Why did he feel that the writer of the letter was so arrogant?

The man's words were concise but gave people a feeling of arrogance, dignity and self-centeredness. He didn't even say hello or introduce himself, but just directly informed him that they would meet in the future, and didn't even mention a specific date. It really was like all the initiative was in the hands of that man!

And he, the leader of a top killer organization, was actually treated so arrogantly by that man!
