The villain has been playing badly for ten years

A gentle breeze blew, and the sunlight shone on him, making the mask glow with a faint cold light.

Ning Xiusu's sleeves fluttered, and the moon-white silk was faintly visible under his cloak. It was neither ostentatious nor cramped, and it set off his figure just right.

"Xiao Yugan, you are really interesting."

Si Chen, wearing a light brown robe with black gold trim, came towards him with a flutter in the wind.

I don't know when he appeared, a hissing sound came from his mouth, and the tip of his red tongue quickly swept across his lips.

"You asked me to pretend to be you and go see the prince. Thanks to you, I was almost shot into a meat pie by someone with a bow and arrow."

His tone seemed a little angry, but not too obvious, more like he felt it was fresh and interesting.

Ning Xiusu said nonchalantly, "Brother Si, I'm sorry to bother you. I wonder if you've seen the Crown Prince?"

Si Chen's arched brows knitted together and he shook his head:

"I just walked into a room with that eunuch when it was foggy. I didn't expect there was an ambush. Not only was the room filled with Yu Guizhi powder, but there were also sneak attacks."

It seems that Qi An's palace is not ordinary. If he is tricked into entering, his life will be in danger.

"understood."

Ning Xiusu uttered a few words slowly, but in his heart he was thinking:

It seems that we can’t stay in Qi’an for too long, and we have to take Hua Jianbai away from Cangming City as soon as possible.

Si Chen's golden snake eyes flashed with a cold light, and his eyebrows were slightly raised.

"Little dried fish, what do you understand?"

Beneath his iron face, his phoenix eyes were gentle, but an unnoticeable fluctuation flashed across his face.

"I was just thinking, there's a wedding banquet tomorrow at the Luo Mansion, but today they're using the bride as bait. I'm afraid this wedding is just a cover."

Si Chen tilted his head and looked him up and down suspiciously, "Why, Xiao Yu Gan, are you scared and don't plan to snatch the bride?"

"No, I have to go."

"But Xiao Yugan, the Luo Mansion's formation is no joke. How do you plan this?"

Ning Xiusu raised his head slightly and squinted his eyes, seemingly enjoying the sunshine, but also seemed to be thinking about something.

Finally, he shook his head: "No plans."

“…Rob it alive!”

Si Chen's golden snake eyes were slightly curved, revealing a bit of cunning joy in the gloom, and a "ho ho" laugh actually came out of his throat.

"Xiao Yugan, you have the same courage and spirit as I did back then. No wonder you were kicked out of the sect."

This didn't sound like a compliment, but Ning Xiusu didn't care. Just now, when he closed his eyes, he used the Qi-searching technique to detect a familiar aura. It was Pu Boyu...

What was he doing in Qi'an's palace?

Ning Xiusu said nothing, and his figure was like a wisp of unruly cloud, falling from a roof to the top of the highest building in the palace.

A faint light flashed at his fingertips, and the imperial decree flashed by.

The aura here is closest, and there is no barrier blocking it nearby, so it's a good opportunity to explore it carefully.

On a table stood a copper incense burner with a golden crane, shrouded in smoke. The smoke was as thin as silk threads and seemed to take the shape of a human being.

Ning Xiusu closed his eyes and saw that the room was magnificent and had a high dome.

The hall's beams and pillars are crafted from precious wood, inlaid with gemstones and gold and silver threads, shimmering with dazzling light. The walls are hung with gorgeous silk curtains, fluttering in the wind, creating a dreamlike experience.

Pu Boyu's slightly bronzed face showed a solemn expression as he stood at the curtain with his hands behind his back.

He was dressed in a long, loose robe with fine golden patterns on the collar and cuffs. He also wore a wide belt inlaid with gemstones around his waist, which was very luxurious.

Ning Xiusu was startled. Why was this kid dressed like this?

The next moment, someone called out.

"Prince, this is not good."

The person who came was wearing a loose blue robe, had a thin figure, and his hair was combed meticulously. He was the eunuch who had just led Si Chen away.

"We had just taken care of everything, but who knew that in the blink of an eye, the person would disappear."

"fool!"

The man had Pu Boyu's appearance, but his tone and movements did not hint at familiarity. Instead, he sounded as strange as if he was wearing a mask.

He glared angrily, breaking his usual honest and straightforward demeanor, and scolded:

"Yu Guizhi specifically targets the mermaid lineage. If you can't even capture a single person, what's the point of me keeping you around?"

The eunuch, who had a long mustache, suddenly slapped himself in the face and knelt down, saying:

"My Lord, I was foolish! I failed to do my job well, but for some reason, that mermaid wasn't afraid of the scent of Yu Guizhi..."

"impossible!"

"My Lord, I asked him everything you taught me, and he answered me fluently."

Hearing this, he sneered and grabbed the eunuch by the collar:

"The Fifth Emperor of Dayan is a mermaid, corrupted by the Jade Guizhi. No matter how powerful he is, he can't escape the royal city. Capture him, and bring him alive!"

"I understand. I'll take people to catch him right away."

He was the one who set up the situation just now...

Ning Xiusu's heart was filled with shock and confusion, as if he had been hit by a club for no reason, which caught him completely off guard.

He expected that someone had set up the trap, but he never expected it to be Pu Boyu.

Moreover, Hua Jianbai is still imprisoned in Luo Mansion. He himself has become the crown prince in Qi'an. Does he still want to kill me?

No...no.

This person only looks the same, what's going on?

There must be something wrong...

Ning Xiusu withdrew his mind technique with mixed emotions. Turning around, he saw Si Chen looking at him in surprise and asked,

"Xiao Yugan, what's wrong with you?"

Fortunately, his voice was quite loud, and the guards who were far away under the roof immediately raised their heads and noticed something unusual.

I saw a group of people below all raised their crossbows, pointed at the two of them and shouted:

"Who is it! How dare you trespass into the palace?"

Si Chen moved his neck and a slight hissing sound came from his throat.

Seeing countless arrows flying towards him, he seemed a little annoyed. He raised his hand and countless arrows bounced back towards the guards.

Ning Xiusu frowned slightly. He didn't intend to alert the enemy, so he immediately issued an order with his fingertips, and immediately Si Chen and the others turned into frost flowers and fallen leaves and disappeared on the spot.

……

The moon is bright in the sky, and its silver light is pouring down on the ground.

At this moment, the sky, earth and the desert are all quiet, with only moonlight and breeze accompanying them.

Looking down from the high night sky, the Luo Mansion was shrouded in haze, like a dusty pearl in the darkness. Beneath the crescent-shaped roof of the courtyard, dim light filtered through the windows.

Hua Jianbai couldn't sleep at all that night and felt restless and anxious.

He got the hidden arrow from somewhere and was fiddling with it inside his sleeve.

He only heard a slight noise, like the sound of a door, and he quickly pulled off his sleeves.

At this moment, Luo Baili pushed the door open and walked in. "Thirteen, why don't you go to bed early?"

He was dressed in a pale yellow glazed robe that fluttered like the sleeves of an immortal, yet it also carried a frivolous and evil air of the world.

Hua Jianbai glanced at him with extreme disdain, crossed his arms in front of him, and said angrily: "I don't like it, I don't want to sleep."

Luo Baili walked closer, "Thirteen, you are indeed different after losing your memory. I remember that you always liked to follow me around, inseparable..."

Hua Jianbai didn't want to pay attention to the people from Luo Mansion, so no matter what this person said, he felt annoyed.

"Stop talking nonsense, what do you want to do here?"

Luo Baili looked at him, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly, and the demon mole on his face was particularly conspicuous.

"I know you have a lot of opinions about me, but there's nothing wrong with marrying me, and... you will recover sooner or later."

Hua Jianbai snorted coldly and ignored him.

He clearly knew that Hua Jianbai didn't want to listen to him, but he still spoke softly:

"From now on in the Luo family, as long as I am here, no one will look down on you."

"Don't be so nice. You just want the Dragon Bone Seal, so you have to drag me down with you."

Hua Jianbai directly pointed out: "Letting me marry you is equivalent to giving you the Dragon Bone Seal, so that I can legitimately succeed the head of the family."

"But this does not conflict with my feelings for you."

"emotion?"

Hua Jianbai seemed to have heard something funny, his eyebrows suddenly raised, and he sneered: "First of all, we haven't met many times, and secondly, if you like someone, you won't restrict their personal freedom."

Si Chen had a pair of frivolous peach blossom eyes, and his eyes moved, "Thirteen, it doesn't matter if you don't understand me, we still have a long time to live together."

"Bah! Who wants to have a life with you? It's so disgusting."

Luo Baili heard his arrogant and angry tone, his eyes were burning, but he was not angry, and said:

"You must be with me at tomorrow's wedding banquet..."

He took a step closer, and the hot breath from his breath ruffled the hair by the other person's ear. He took advantage of the situation and grabbed his arm, pinching the hidden arrow in his sleeve.

"So Thirteen, be obedient and don't play these little tricks. They're useless."

Hua Jianbai Shanquan's eyes were startled, his face turned pale in an instant, he took a step back, and fell onto the bed.

"Humph, you are all spiritual practitioners, and I don't know any magic, so of course it's useless."

"I know you agreed to marry me because you wanted to escape, but the Luo Mansion is your home, Hua Shisan, and I sincerely want to be your husband..."

"Get out of here!"

Hua Jianbai couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed something nearby and tried to smash it on his head, but he missed.

He was so angry that he pointed at Luo Baili who was standing not far away and cursed:

"A bunch of idiots, taking advantage of others, no martial ethics, no shame, get out of here, you bastards!"

Luo Baili narrowed his eyes slightly, his demonic mole shone with a strange light, and he glared at him with his frivolous peach blossom eyes.

"Looks like I need you to be more obedient."

When he raised his hand, Hua Jianbai's eyes suddenly became blurry and he fell backwards.

When Luo Baili stepped out of the room, many maids came forward and bowed outside the door.

"Dress up for him and make sure he looks beautiful tomorrow."

The maids nodded and said, "Yes, Fourth Master."
