Bloody Kyoto

Chapter 18 We'd rather not have the offspring of the otherworldly beings.

When I sent Chen Shifeng to Tianxi City to silence Huo Lele, it wasn't actually that dangerous, and there was no need to send someone to protect him secretly.

Because at that time, no one thought she might be from another world.

But for some reason, she felt uneasy, which is why she sent those people to protect her secretly.

The so-called "three strikes" refers to actually making a strike; if no strike is made, it doesn't count.

She just wanted an extra layer of protection, so she sent them to protect Ah Feng. She didn't expect Ah Feng to actually be ambushed and get attacked by those people.

That was the last chance.

There are some regrets, but not many, after all, Ah Feng came back safely.

She smiled at him and said, "As long as you're alright."

Chen Shifeng felt a little warmer when he thought of her arrangements.

Because so many people were waiting for her, Ah Hui didn't chat with Chen Shifeng much, only telling him, "Go back and get some rest. Come to the manor tomorrow, and I'll give you a welcome dinner."

Chen Shifeng reluctantly nodded and slowly walked away.

"Princess, have you received any news?"

As soon as Ah Hui returned, the Princess couldn't wait to ask her questions.

Ah Hui sat down and then told Chen Shifeng the news he had brought: "Huo Lele left the day before Ah Feng arrived."

"Isn't this a bit too much of a coincidence? Are you sure no one sent her a letter?" Fu Cheng asked.

"It's probably not a coincidence after all," Ah Hui said sarcastically, a cryptic smile on his face.

“Ah Feng said he was intercepted. If it weren’t for the people I arranged to protect him secretly, he would probably be dead by now.”

Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked and began to wonder who had done it.

Everyone fell silent for a moment. Ah Hui smiled and looked at Fu Yanji, asking, "Yanji, do you have any guesses in your mind?"

Fu Yanji lifted his eyelids and nodded slowly, "It should be related to the Crown Prince's side."

"Impossible!" King Cheng exclaimed. "That good-for-nothing Crown Prince can barely get out of bed, how could he possibly be pulling these strings behind the scenes?"

A flash of disdain crossed Fu Yanji's eyes. The Prince of Cheng was lucky to have a mother who had won the Emperor's heart; otherwise, he wouldn't even be as good as the Crown Prince.

"No, that's very possible." Grand Tutor Fu stroked his beard and squinted slightly. "Although the Crown Prince is in poor health, he still has the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion."

As he spoke, his expression turned serious. "It's probably because word of Huo Yunxia's affair has leaked out, and they want to get something to cure the Crown Prince's poison."

Everyone knows what they'll get in return: Huo Yunxia's blood.

King Cheng suddenly stood up and said urgently, "Everyone must hide that blood well, so that no one can take it away."

The throne was already in his grasp; all he had to do was wait for the crown prince to die so his father could make him the new crown prince.

If the Crown Prince's poison is cured, it will be difficult for even the Emperor to depose him, because the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion has 300,000 troops under its command.

Moreover, because of the poison in the Crown Prince's body, the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion has almost turned against the Emperor.

If we forcibly depose him, the Duke of Zhenguo will definitely rebel.

Yunji glanced at him indifferently without saying a word, shaking his head inwardly. Was it really good for the Great Shang to support such an impatient person?

The Grand Princess didn't say anything either. Isn't that obvious?

Anyone who dares to reveal the bloodshed would likely be condemned to death if the common people or other officials found out.

No one else spoke, except for Ah Hui, who said with a smile, "Your Highness, there's no need to worry. This blood is a valuable thing, so it should be carefully hidden."

After saying that, she lowered her eyes, picked up the slightly cold tea, and took a small sip.

With Ah Hui's words, King Cheng was relieved. Yes, no matter what illness or injury one has, as long as one drinks that blood, one can be completely cured.

No one wants to lose something this good.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, until Ah Hui finally broke the silence, "Now we should think about how to capture that otherworldly person."

"Yes, the most urgent task is to capture that otherworldly person."

“If we don’t capture that person, our lives will be in danger at any moment,” Prince Ning said.

The man's words revealed that the most urgent matter, even more pressing than arresting someone, was saving one's own life, causing everyone to gasp in shock.

At the same time, all eyes turned to Yun Ji.

Ah Hui asked, "Second Master, is there a way to save everyone's lives before we capture the person?"

If someone else had asked him this, Yunji might not have paid attention, but since Ahui asked him, he took it very seriously.

After thinking for a moment, he nodded. "There is no best way, only a rather ineffective one."

Everyone looked worried upon hearing this.

"What kind of useless method is this?" Ah Hui asked again.

Yun Ji glanced at her and saw her holding hands with Fu Yanji. He couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle. This girl really liked this Fu family boy.

"We only know that the person can manipulate plants, but we don't know if he can manipulate any kind of plant or only specific plants. For safety's sake, please remove all plants from your residences when you return."

"Also, avoid going to places with lots of plants."

Everyone thought this method was feasible. Grand Tutor Fu glanced at Fu Cheng, who immediately went outside and ordered the servants to clear away all the plants in the mansion.

Seeing this, the others followed suit and gave the same instructions.

"Second Master, is there any way to identify people from other worlds?" Ah Hui asked, tilting her head, looking quite adorable.

Yun Ji frowned. "People from other worlds use ordinary human bodies, which means that they are no different from us in appearance. The difference lies in their souls."

When the soul and body have been fused for a long time, they become one, and even ordinary sorcerers would not recognize them.

"If we can't tell, then wouldn't we only be able to find out who it is when she's caught committing the murder?"

Grand Tutor Fu was deeply troubled, knowing that if that otherworldly person wanted revenge, the first target would be their Fu family.

Yunji: "Just because ordinary sorcerers can't see it doesn't mean I can't."

Upon hearing this, everyone's spirits lifted, and they all turned to look at him.

"Although I can see the special souls of people from other worlds, I first have to meet that person in person before I can have a chance to identify them."

Upon hearing this, everyone became anxious again. If that person didn't show up, wouldn't they have to keep looking at the bare mansion, living in constant fear of being retaliated against and killed?

After a moment of silence, Fu Yanji spoke calmly, "We can lure the snake out of its hole."

Everyone's eyes immediately focused on him.

"Yan Ji, do you have a good idea?" A Hui looked at him with admiration in her eyes.

Fu Yanji nodded. "If that person really is Huo Lele, she will definitely care about China."

Everyone understood what he meant: he was using Huo Yunxia, ​​his own son, to lure Huo Lele out.

Ah Hui stared at him for a long time. "Isn't Yan Ji afraid of something unexpected happening?"

Fu Yanji lowered his eyes and smiled faintly, "We don't need the offspring of people from other worlds."

Ah Hui smiled. As expected of the man she had chosen, he was ruthless enough. She was going to love him to death.

But everyone else, including the Fu family, felt a chill in their hearts. He was really ruthless; he could even sacrifice his own son without hesitation.

Once a solution was found, everyone dispersed.
