"Xiao Zhan chased all the way, but in the end, I still managed to escape. The Immortal Masters of Yun Gui Sect must be extrely disappointed in him. How could they easily help him awaken Xiao Ran? Moreover, they think I’m a mber of the Demon Sect, so they’ll definitely rush back to report to their sect and request higher-ups to make a decision."
"Previously, I was too tense and didn’t expect this."
"Unexpectedly, I muddled through yet another wave of danger."
"However, as long as Xiao Ran is alive, he’s a disaster. Sooner or later, the people of Yun Gui Sect will awaken him."
"I still have to think of a way."
After patrolling.
Jiang Feng sat in his workroom and thought.
He felt that the matter hadn’t passed; instead, the anger accumulated by Xiao Zhan would beco more terrifying when it eventually erupted.
In the afternoon.
Rumors began to spread on the first floor of the prison.
It turned out, last night, an underground bank was bloodily massacred, blood flowing like rivers, corpses scattered everywhere. The Dragon Capital Governnt Office had already taken over the case.
Imperial City.
Inside the Second Prince’s residence.
Liu Jinhu, looking weary and pale.
Lowly said, "When this old servant received the news and rushed over, the bank was already destroyed. All the silver notes were looted, and anything pawned that could be destroyed was. Now, countless ticket holders are waiting in line with their pawn tickets, wanting to redeem their items."
"How much silver taels are needed to fully compensate?"
The Second Prince, with his back to Liu Jinhu, asked.
"We need to take out eighty percent of the remaining family wealth."
Liu Jinhu replied.
"Eighty percent?"
The Second Prince reached out his hand and pressed it against the golden rattan wood pillar nearby.
His hand, like a red-hot iron block, sizzled, leaving a ten-centiter deep palm print on it.
The Second Prince’s eyes were wide open, and he said angrily, "Isn’t Xiao Ran supposed to be awakened? How did Xiao Zhan end up bloodbath the bank?"
"Last night, Xiao Zhan set a trap, luring the Demon Sect mbers into a snare, but who knew that person’s body technique was superb. Not only did he escape, but the Immortal Master of Yun Gui Sect was nearly killed by him. Xiao Zhan couldn’t capture him, provoking the Immortal Master of Yun Gui Sect, who, citing injuries, left in a huff."
Liu Jinhu explained.
"Is there really soone in Dragon Capital that Xiao Zhan can’t capture?" The Second Prince showed surprise, pondered for a mont, and said, "I always feel that recent events are all related to that person. Preventing Xiao Ran from awakening, and the person who killed Jin Muchuan, seems to be him?"
"This old servant feels the sa. Tonight, I’ll go to the Black Market, to see if it’s soone from there."
Liu Jinhu had always suspected the other party was from the Seventh Prince’s side.
"Investigate thoroughly. It’s best to find a way to involve Xiao Zhan, so he can see who is trying to kill Xiao Ran!"
The Second Prince said angrily.
"And Han Dong. It seems every ti that person appears, it’s related to her. Try to get sothing out of her mouth."
The Second Prince continued.
"I just received news, the Emperor has assigned Han Tieshan to the Yun Gui Sect to invite the Immortal Masters to awaken Xiao Ran. Maybe it’s an opportunity."
Liu Jinhu said.
"Plan early to act, lest that lunatic Xiao Zhan creates more trouble."
The Second Prince, filled with grievances, as Xiao Zhan, whenever displeased, would cause trouble for him. Not creating trouble with the Beast Taming Sect, then uprooting his developed underground bank entirely.
Even knowing it’s Xiao Zhan’s doing, he is helpless.
Since Xiao Ran’s coma, various things have happened one after another. First, the Dark Hall was bloodily slaughtered, all underground deals over the years dragged into the light, paying a heavy price even if salvaged successfully later.
Then the Beast Taming Sect was wiped out by Xiao Zhan.
He was also put under house arrest by the Emperor.
Now the underground bank was also destroyed by Xiao Zhan, countless people carrying pawn tickets wanting to redeem their items from before.
The losses are imaginable.
Not having gone mad already counts as a miracle.
"Yes!"
Liu Jinhu also carried a grudge, like the Second Prince, urgently wanting to know who that mysterious person was.
Inside Zhenbei Prison.
It’s nearly shift change ti for Jiang Feng.
Han Tieshan appeared again, coming to find Han Dong.
Jiang Feng knew there was definitely sothing going on.
So he listened carefully.
"Dong’Er, the Holy Emperor has sent to Yun Gui Sect to invite soone to awaken Xiao Ran. Rember not to leave Zhenbei Prison easily during the days I’m away. I’ve instructed Xiao Zhan that, even if Yun Gui Sect’s elders co, it won’t work if you have trouble."
Han Tieshan said.
"Dad, Uncle Xiao won’t do anything to . Just go, awaken Xiao Ran as soon as possible."
Han Dong replied.
"You silly girl, your father is so worried about you, yet you’re always thinking about Xiao Ran, really can’t keep a grown daughter, the arm turning outward."
Han Tieshan was exasperated.
"Dad, what nonsense are you saying? Xiao Ran is like that because of . I can’t just watch him lying in bed all the ti."
Han Dong said speechlessly.
"Forget it, once Xiao Ran wakes up, I won’t allow you to see him again. I’ll ask the Holy Emperor for imperial orders to let you leave Dragon Capital, to prevent Xiao Ran from continuing to entangle you."
Han Tieshan said helplessly.
"No, I refuse to leave Dragon Capital. I want to stay at Zhenbei Prison."
Han Dong quickly said, as if Zhenbei Prison held special aning for her.
"This matter is not up to you. When Dad finishes his business, he will take you away."
Han Tieshan left angry, not wanting to indulge Han Dong.
After he left.
It’s nearly shift change ti for Jiang Feng.
He left Zhenbei Prison and returned to Willow Alley.
He mused inwardly, "The Emperor actually let Han Tieshan personally invite the Immortal Masters of Yun Gui Sect. It seems Xiao Zhan can’t wait any longer. At most, Xiao Ran will wake up in ten days."
Jiang Feng felt a twinge in his heart.
It might really be ti to leave Dragon Capital.
