Xiao Yuan Cheng was in a rage. But at this moment, he couldn't think of any solution. He could only worry helplessly.
"My lord, how about we send someone to go to Anguo Gong's Prefecture to meet the steward and bring some presents. We can tell him that the person who had killed Meng Xue is Huang Bei Yue. It has nothing to do with us. Furthermore, we'll express grief for the death of young miss Xue. We'll ask him to say some good words about us in front of Anguo Gong to make it seem like we are innocent. Let Anguo Gong look for revenge against Huang Bei Yue. This matter doesn't concern us."
Concubine Xue is always meticulous and very calculating. Xiao Yuan Cheng in some aspects heavily relies on her. When he heard her words, he nodded his head. He immediately ordered someone to prepare some gift and go to Anguo Gong's Prefecture.
Huang Bei Yue, who had returned to Flowing Cloud Pavilion had heard everything. She thoughtfully smiled.
They don't want to get involved, is it that easy?
She put on the black robe and the black cloak. She told Dong Ling to be careful at home and she sneaked out.
She walked around Bu Ji Er market, paying particular attention to the restaurant those mercenaries returned to.
"Yan, can you feel it? Will that Xue Che really come to this place?" She frowned as she talked to Yan. The places that mercenaries like to go, it's mostly noisy and chaotic places. She really doubts that Xue Che who is the son of an aristocratic will really come.
"Inside the red spider, it has the smell of the black jade. It's near here," Yan said lazily.
Ever since that day she had let him out, Yan felt that his whole body is more comfortable. The past two days had been more enjoyable for him.
Huang Bei Yue pushed open the door of a liquor store. She walked in and swept her gaze across the room. On the second floor, there is a familiar figure, making her narrow her eyes. She took large strides towards that figure.
The noisy and chaotic liquor store suddenly became silent upon her arrival. The strong mercenaries who were drinking and exchanging punches, immediately turned their head to look at her.
Someone grew a big mouth, all the liquor that he had drunk, 'hua la la' dripped down from their mouth.
To be able to see the person from the legend in such a close range, how can these people not be shocked!
On the day of the palace banquet, Xi Tian Daren had defeated Nan Yi Country's 'Undefeated General', this news has already spread all over the country!
Xi Tian, this name. It has already become the name of the strong. It will soon be spread across the Karte Mainland.
"Xi, Master Xi Tian. Is there anything I can do?" The waiter of the liquor store asked excitedly as he ran up to her.
The liquor store is already full to its capacity. She freely walked across to the only place that still had a vacant seat and sat down. She faintly said: "A bottle of purple grape wine."
Purple grape wine is one of the most common wine in Nan Yi Country. The wine is strong, rich and mellow. Compared to the bejeweled nectar that aristocratic drink, it's not comparable. But because it's cheap, it's very popular.
"I told you not to come and bother me! Roll far away!" The person across her drunkenly said as he suddenly slammed the table.
After he shouted, the people around them turned to look at him. Their eyes contained sympathy.
Huang Bei Yue, under the black cloak coolly said: "Oh? This empty seat, I can't sit?"
"I said no—-," that man suddenly lifted his head. His face showed that he was completely drunk. He looked at the mysterious black cloak and was suddenly stunned.
His throat gurgled. For a while, he wasn't able to speak.
"I apologize for disturbing you." Huang Bei Yue stood up and pretend to leave.
"Master Xi Tian!" His drunken brain suddenly awakens and became clear. Xue Che quickly walked out, reverent and respectfully, said: "You can sit, please sit. Please sit."
"Many thanks." Huang Bei said as she sat again. When she lifted her head to see Xue Che standing, she said: "Xue Gongzi please sit down too. This was originally your seat."
She spoke calmly, there was no alienation from her voice that experts usually have. It immediately made Xue Che's heart relax a lot.
He slowly sat down excitedly. He would've never thought that he would have the fortune of sitting together with Master Xi Tian to drink wine. He doesn't know where to put his hand.
Under the cloak, the corner of Huang Bei Yue's mouth curved. At this moment, the waiter had returned with purple grape wine. She poured a cup for herself. The aroma of the rich purple grape wine seeps out, very intoxicating.
Xue Che looked at her. He was a little stunned. It seemed that not all experts drink expensive wine. Master Xi Tian, one of the best experts in the world only drinks purple grape wine.
Even though purple grape wine is cheap, but using that transparent wine glass as well as it is in the hands of Master Xi Tian, it gave elude a feeling of nobility and elegance. It seemed as if she was holding a purple gem in her hand instead.
The gaze in his eyes contained reverence towards her. However, Xue Che looked ill at ease, turned his glass of wine.
Huang Bei Yue slightly took a sip of her wine. As she lifted her head, she saw Xue Che staring at her. It seemed as if he wanted to say something, so she said: "Xue Gongzi, do have something to say?"
Xue Che blinked, promptly knelt down in front of her: "Master Xi Tian, please take me as your disciple!"
Huang Bei Yue who was under the cloak almost laughed out loud.
Xue Che, would you kill yourself by banging your head against the pillar outside if you knew that the one you're begging right now is Huang Bei Yue?
Using a hoarse voice, she responded: "I don't accept disciples."
Xue Che's face filled with despair. If he's not able to make Master Xi Tian, this expert as a master, then he, for his entire life won't be able to compete against the Crown Prince Zhan Ye.
He hates! He hated that Zhan Ye is protecting that Huang Bei Yue!
What he hated, even more, is that he is a Crown Prince, incomparably respected and set up high in a pedestal. He is also Nan Yi country's genius. When he's 16, he's already a nine-star summoner.
If he is stronger than Crown Prince Zhan Ye, then his father's ambitious plan would be easily reached. In addition, he won't have any worries as he hacks that Huang Bei Yue into thousands of pieces!
But… Master Xi Tian also doesn't accept disciples…!
Huang Bei Yue glanced at him, faintly said: "I don't accept disciples. But I like to make friends."
Xue Che's eyes lit up. To become friends… does Master Xi Tian meant that they can become friends!?
"Many thanks to Master Xi Tian." Xue Che was excessively happy that he unexpectedly bowed to her on the ground. Then he stood up and sat on his seat again.
"How does Master Xi Tian have time to come here to drink?"
"I came here to the market to look at some medicinal herbs." Huang Bei Yue said lightly.
Medicinal materials? Xue Che became puzzled. Most summoners don't buy medicinal materials. They only go pill masters to buy pills.
It can't be that Master Xi Tian knows how to refine pills too?
It can't be. The power of a nine-star summoner is already extremely scary. If she is also a pill master, doesn't that defy the natural order!
So Xue Che carefully asked: "May I ask what kind of medicinal herbs that Master Xi Tian is looking for? I might be able to help."
"No need. I already found the medicinal herbs. Later I'll go take a look around again to see if there's a better pill furnace." Huang Bei Yue drank a sip of purple grape wine, her breath cold.
As Xue Che listened to her, her words immediately confirmed the thoughts in his heart.
