Black Fairy, the master is a female ghost

At the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, after the carriage stopped, someone hurried over to greet it.

"Master Xiangguo, are you okay?"

The holes in the carriage are indeed worrying.

The curtain was lifted and Zixia jumped down: "Are you the master hired by the Prime Minister?"

The man replied, "Yes, who are you?"

The Prime Minister got off the carriage and said, "She is also a master hired by the Prime Minister."

He turned around and said, "Supreme Jade, come down quickly."

Lu Xun Huan opened the curtain and got off the carriage: "Prime Minister, you were careless. If we hadn't been there just now, you would have died for your country."

Prime Minister Zhou chuckled and said, "Haha, I was indeed careless. I didn't expect them to dare to assassinate me in the street. From now on, you must bring guards with you when you go out. Let's go inside and talk."

The three of them sat down in Prime Minister Zhou's study.

He asked Lu Xunhuan, "Zixia is always following you around. If you want to discuss something confidential, will she listen?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "She is not aware of it, and there is nothing I can do."

Zixia said angrily, "What do you mean? You think I'm in the way, right?"

Lu Xun Huan coaxed her, "Zi Xia, be good. Go take a walk around the mansion and get familiar with the Prime Minister's residence. I want to have a few private words with the Prime Minister."

Zixia looked at the two of them and said, "Why do I feel like you two are very familiar to me? Have you known each other for a long time?"

Lu Xunhuan pulled her up and said, "Be good, go for a walk."

After Zixia left, the two drank tea and lowered their voices.

Prime Minister Zhou said, "Honestly, we didn't expect Shangguan to die. The Fifth Prince and I really didn't hire anyone to poison him. As for Xia Yin, who on earth bribed her?"

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Have you ever done any research near the Shangshu Mansion?"

Prime Minister Zhou nodded and said, "When I went to pay my respects to him, I used the excuse of going across the street to buy something, and I did ask a few people."

Lu Xun Huan asked again: "So, what clues did you find out?"

Prime Minister Zhou said, "Some say that before Shangguan was poisoned, he saw Xia Yin talking to a young man, and the two even went to a teahouse to hide and have a secret conversation."

Lu Xun Huan pondered for a moment, then asked, "So, do you know what that man looks like?"

Prime Minister Zhou stroked his beard and said, "They said he was quite tall, handsome, and very rich. I was thinking, could it be the Supreme Jade?"

Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "You always guessed right."

Prime Minister Zhou was surprised and asked, "Is it really you? Why did you poison Shangguan?"

Lu Xunhuan asked, "Twenty-eight people including Zhu Tianpeng from the Changzhou City branch of the Immortal Friends Association were killed. Do you know who did it?"

Zhou Xiangguo shook his head: "Could it be Shangguan? Can he beat Zhu Tianpeng?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "Shangguan is able to become the right-hand man of the Queen and the Crown Prince. He is not only good at wielding power, but also has the strength of the ninth level of the Qianyuan Realm."

Prime Minister Zhou exclaimed: "Good fellow, he hid it so well."

He asked Lu Xunhuan, "Then why did he kill Zhu Tianpeng and the others?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "Shangguan has another hidden identity. He is the substitute for the president of the Immortal Friends Association."

There was an incredible expression on Prime Minister Zhou's face.

"Since he is the substitute for the president of the Immortal Friends Association, why would he kill the members of the Immortal Friends Association?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "The identity of the president of the Immortal Friends Association has always been very mysterious. Zhu Tianpeng has only heard of him and has never seen him in person. Shangguan often issues orders on behalf of the president of the Immortal Friends Association. Zhu Tianpeng remembers his voice."

Prime Minister Zhou seemed to understand: "Perhaps the problem lies in Zhu Tianpeng attending the Fifth Prince's wedding, and Shangguan accompanied the Fifth Prince to your table. He didn't want to talk at first, but at that time, I asked him a question, and he had to speak."

Lu Xunhuan nodded: "Ever since Zhu Tianpeng heard Shangguan's voice, he has been distracted. He thinks Shangguan is the real president."

"Shangguan also understood that Zhu Tianpeng knew his identity. Even if he was a substitute, it couldn't be exposed. So, he silenced Zhu Tianpeng and the other 28 people."

Prime Minister Zhou stroked his beard and nodded slightly: "So, by colluding with Xia Yin, you are avenging Zhu Tianpeng and the others?"

Lu Xun Huan shook his head and said, "No, I also mistakenly thought Shangguan was the president of the Immortal Friends Association at first, so I colluded with Xia Yin to poison him."

Zhou Xiangguo was surprised again and asked, "Why did you want to kill the president of the Immortal Friends Association?"

Lu Xun Huan said, "This secret must not be leaked. At least for now, the president doesn't know me, and doesn't know that I want to kill him."

Prime Minister Zhou nodded: "Okay, but why?"

Lu Xun Huan took a sip of tea and said, "The reasons behind this are very complicated. You just need to know that the president of the Immortal Friends Association is not a good person. If I don't kill him, he will definitely kill me in the future when he knows the truth."

Zhou Xiangguo said: "Okay, if it's not convenient to say, then I won't ask."

He asked Lu Xunhuan, "So, what do you think about the Fifth Prince's matter?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "The Fifth Prince's death is related to the Master of the Shenlong Pavilion."

Prime Minister Zhou's eyes widened: "Is it related to the Shenlong Pavilion?"

Lu Xun Huan nodded. "That dragon bone is the root of evil. The late king regarded it as a symbol of royal authority, but he didn't know that the Shenlong Pavilion was secretly collecting it. Gathering them all would grant one immense power."

Prime Minister Zhou stroked his beard and said, "I understand. The Shenlong Pavilion is collecting it. There is one in the Fifth Prince's secret room. They naturally came here, broke into the secret room, and accidentally triggered the mechanism."

Lu Xun Huan said, "Yes, the secret room mechanism was triggered, and the Master of the Shenlong Pavilion used brute force to break free. That's what happened. The Fifth Prince happened to be nearby and was killed by the powerful aftermath."

Prime Minister Zhou nodded and said, "No wonder the Imperial Guards couldn't find the dragon bones even after digging three feet underground. It seems they've been taken away."

He pondered for a moment, then asked, "After you teamed up with Xia Yin to kill Shangguan, what happened to Xia Yin?"

Lu Xunhuan said, "I've already sent her to another country. She's safe."

Prime Minister Zhou pondered for a moment, "Then how did you know Shangguan was just a stand-in?"

Lu Xunhuan picked up the teacup and said, "I once told you that I came to Changzhou City just to look for something."

Prime Minister Zhou asked, "Could it be that you are a member of the Shenlong Pavilion and are here to look for dragon bones?"

Lu Xun Huan shook his head. "I'm not a member of the Shenlong Pavilion, but the Pavilion Master forced me to help him search for dragon bones throughout the world. After Shangguan died, he came out to see me and reminded me that Shangguan was just a substitute."

Prime Minister Zhou nodded: "Oh, so that's how it is."

He said, "You have confused me. I don't know who you are."

Lu Xun Huan said, "I am Zhou Fenqing's nephew, a cultivator. Someone wants to persecute the immortals in the world in order to control the immortal world and use it for his own benefit."

"I am the one who represents the immortals of the world and fights against the bad guys."

"If we don't stop the bad guys, once they completely control the immortals of the world, the fight for the throne and the fight for territory will be meaningless."

Prime Minister Zhou asked, "That bad guy wants to unify the world and become king himself?"

Lu Xun Huan shook his head: "Not necessarily. Is there someone else behind that person manipulating him? Is there a bigger conspiracy? Will this world ever end? I don't know yet."

Prime Minister Zhou said in shock, "The end of the world?"

Lu Xunhuan smiled and said, "That's just a possibility. If it really happens, I will do my best to stop it."

He asked Prime Minister Zhou, "By the way, who are those two assassins?"

Prime Minister Zhou said, "He is the Crown Prince's guard. Normally, he only guards the Crown Prince."

Lu Xun Huan touched his chin and said, "Oh, did I offend the prince this time?"

Prime Minister Zhou nodded. "Yes, you killed two of his guards. His plot to assassinate me was exposed. He must be furious and doesn't know what to do next."

Lu Xunhuan asked, "What do you expect?"

Prime Minister Zhou raised his teacup and said, "He is not a good prince. If Your Majesty dies in the future and he succeeds to the throne, the people of Western Chu will suffer."

Lu Xun Huan asked, "Do you have anyone more suitable than him?"

Prime Minister Zhou nodded: "Yes."

Lu Xun Huan pondered for a moment and said, "We'll get to know each other later if we have the chance."
