Both worlds are like dreams

She did not intend to tell Wei Yunzhou about the fight between Xue Huang and the Black and White Devils, but she obviously underestimated the efficiency of Shanhe Sect.

As soon as she returned to Jinxiu Tower in the afternoon, Luo Ning told her that Wei Yunzhou wanted to see her about something.

Xue Huang asked tentatively, "Sister Luo Ning, do you know why Second Uncle wants to talk to me?"

"You'll know if you go and take a look. However, he doesn't look very well." Luo Ning took her upstairs and left first.

Xuehuang pushed the door open and saw Wei Yunzhou still reading a book at the coffee table. When he heard the voice, he didn't even raise his head, as if he already knew it was her.

"Second Uncle, what do you want to talk to me about?" Xue Huang asked as she sat next to him.

"Have you ever fought against the Black and White Devils?" Wei Yunzhou asked.

Xue Huang poured herself a cup of tea and said, "Yes."

"This means that the Phantom has set his sights on you."

"Then does Shen Congfeng know your identity as the leader of Shanhe Sect?"

Wei Yunzhou shook his head.

"What about the identity of Guigu's successor?"

"know."

"So they are staring at me because they want to check our relationship, right? Today's fight is just a pretext to test my martial arts."

"Shen Congfeng and his party are powerful both in the government and in the opposition. Your identity cannot be concealed."

Xue Huang glanced at Wei Yunzhou's cold expression and said, "So, you want me to leave Beiling again?"

Wei Yunzhou looked serious and said, "In their eyes, there are only two kinds of people in the world, those who can be used by them and those who cannot be used by them. All those who cannot be used by them are potential threats."

Xue Huang disagreed, "I am only good at martial arts, but my brain is not very useful. I can't be of any use to them."

Wei Yunzhou thought to himself: You are quite self-aware.

But to the world, the descendants of Guiguzi are very popular. Wherever they go, there will be blood and gore.

At this time, there was a sound of a door opening, and Luo Ning walked in with two men, saying, "Sir, the Fifth Prince and the Crown Prince are here."

Xue Huang looked at the door, and saw Mo Ruilin and Gu Qinglan coming in. She couldn't help but sigh that Beiling was indeed a good place, and everyone was so good-looking.

Wei Yunzhou had no intention of standing up to salute the two men, and the two men did not seem surprised at all. Gu Qinglan even bowed first.

Mo Ruilin was more easy-going. He sat opposite Wei Yunzhou and said directly, "Brother Wei, I haven't seen you for a long time. Are you worried about me?"

Wei Yunzhou didn't even raise his eyelids and said coldly, "No."

Even so, Xue Huang clearly heard a hint of helplessness in his cold tone, which was not like his style. She smiled slightly, said nothing, and silently poured tea for the two of them.

Mo Ruilin took the teacup and smiled. "I am really worried about you. I just finished my work and came to see you with Qinglan."

"You've been struggling for so long, but you haven't shaken Shen Congfeng's power at all. Instead, you've made yourself a thorn in his side. You're too optimistic." Wei Yunzhou said coldly.

Murray Lin calmly picked up the teacup and said with a smile: "But at least the current situation is optimistic."

Xue Huang smiled when she heard this, "Uncle Mo, are you trying to say that if you succeed in squeezing into the battle for the crown prince of Beiling, so that the court forms three forces to check and balance each other, the situation will be more optimistic?"

Mo Ruilin smiled and said, "Ms. Xuehuang is indeed very smart! But it's a bit strange for you to call me uncle. Why don't you lower your generation?"

Xue Huang looked at Mo Ruilin from a close distance. He was really handsome and elegant. He was probably one year younger than Wei Yunzhou, but the royal nobility on him could not be ignored.

Gu Qinglan said: "I would also like to thank Brother Wei for his support and help this time."

"I am more concerned about your next plan," Wei Yunzhou remained unmoved, "It is obvious that your current situation is very dangerous."

Xue Huang understood what he meant. Although Mo Ruilin and Gu Qinglan knew that the people who went to the Baixi Troupe and the Minister's Mansion to silence people were the Black and White Devils who obeyed Shen Congfeng's orders, as long as Shen Congfeng held the military power, it would be impossible to easily shake his position.

If he is pushed to the limit, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"If Shen Congfeng and his gang are not eliminated, Beiling will never have peace." Gu Qinglan said.

"So, are you here today to do business? Do you want to kill Shen Congfeng?" Wei Yunzhou said meaningfully.

Gu Qinglan shook his head. "If the fundamental problem is not solved, there will be another Shen Congfeng after killing one. Besides, there is also a King Han Xi in the North. With 200,000 troops under his command, these two have always been in the same party and cannot be easily moved."

Xue Huang was puzzled and asked, "Why does King Han Xi have such great military power?"

Mo Ruilin said, "King Han Xi's father was the Marquis Han Xi who pacified the four directions. Unfortunately, he died in the war with Beiyuan. In order to break through Beiyuan, the fourteen-year-old King Han Xi took on the position of commander-in-chief. Relying on methods that ordinary people could not imagine, he broke through the city gate in one fell swoop, defeated the enemy army, and completely destroyed the Beiyuan royal family. My father was very sad about the death of Marquis Han Xi, and he also looked at King Han Xi Mo Yunchen differently, so he conferred him the hereditary title of prince. He was in charge of 200,000 troops in Beiling and stationed in the northern border."

Mo Ruilin did not notice that Wei Yunzhou's face had darkened when he mentioned the word Beiyuan. Seeing this, Xue Huang quickly diverted his attention, "I guess your father must be very regretful."

Mo Ruilin sighed and said, "Mo Yunchen's personality changed drastically during the war. Over the past ten years, he has become more and more eccentric, cold-blooded and ruthless. He has also colluded with Shen Congfeng, but we can't find any fault with him, and we can't force him to hand over military power. With Shen Congfeng's help, it's not easy to touch him."

"Nothing wrong?" Xue Huang seemed surprised. "King Han Xi is engaged in human trafficking in Shuanglin City. Doesn't the imperial court care?"

"What do you mean, Miss Xuehuang?" Mo Ruilin and Gu Qinglan were both very surprised.

Xue Huang took a sip of tea and started to tell the story from the beginning. The Ghost Valley where she was was not in the territory of the Nine Kingdoms, but in the mountains and forests near the sea of ​​Liuyun Continent, which was the closest to Beiling.

Hearing that the snow-capped mountains in Shuanglin City are majestic and steady, Xue Huang wanted to see them, so this time she chose to pass through Shuanglin City to go to Shangyang City.

Unexpectedly, I encountered a strange thing as soon as I arrived. There were many human traffickers in Shuanglin City who were buying and selling young and beautiful women. The prices they offered were very high, and many poor people would choose to sell their daughters to them.

What made Xue Huang feel strange was that after buying and selling the women, these people did not sell them to wealthy families as maids, nor did they sell them to brothels or other places. Instead, they sold them to Prince Han Xi's palace.

It was normal for a place like the royal palace to purchase some maids every year, but after Xue Huang investigated, she found that the women who entered the royal palace had never appeared in Shuanglin City again.

At that time, she had been guarding around Prince Han Xi's mansion for several days, and even disguised herself as a maid to sneak in, but she did not find any trace of those women.

Instead, she was caught by King Han Xi. She had to admit that King Han Xi gave Xue Huang a very strange feeling. What surprised her even more was that he also knew the Ice Skill.

After the fight, Xue Huang was sure that this was a martial art called Hanbing Jue that had been passed down in the martial arts world, and it was second only to Xuanbing Curse.

So that day, Xue Huang and Mo Yunchen fought from dusk till dawn, with no clear winner. Most of the palace was covered with thick ice, but Mo Yunchen's eyes seemed to be getting more and more excited.

That cold and merciless look made her feel inexplicably uncomfortable all over, so she fought for a few more rounds and finally found a chance to escape.

But Mo Yunchen seemed determined to capture her, so he sent his soldiers to chase her. Xue Huang had no choice but to beat those people up, and now Mo Yunchen chased her even more.
