In Another World, Everyone Want to Kill Me! Chapter 213: Gone in the Night

Seeing Yue Mingxuan act this way, Gongsun Xing shook his head helplessly.

With such a fiery temperant, how had he learned such exceptional dical skills?

After Shang Qinghua’s provocation, Yue Mingxuan lost the mood to continue studying.

He tucked the notebook into his sleeve and muttered, slightly frustrated, "I’ll head back first."

Seeing Yue Mingxuan so downcast, Gongsun Xing smiled. "What’s this? A few scolding words from Prince Shang and you’ve lost the will to study dicine? It seems Shang Qinghua is sowhat important to you after all."

Yue Mingxuan shook his head. "I’ve been here a long ti. If I don’t return, Sui He will worry."

Although he knew he wasn’t telling the truth, Gongsun Xing kindly didn’t expose him.

"Alright, then. Go back and study carefully. If you don’t understand anything, you can co to anyti."

Yue Mingxuan responded absentmindedly and walked out.

Gongsun Xing watched his retreating figure and shook his head with a smile.

He could never predict Yue Mingxuan thoughts anymore; his heart was already claid by soone else, consuming all of his attention.

By the ti he left Chengqian Palace, the sky had turned pitch black.

As soon as he reached the Imperial Garden, Yue Mingxuan felt a twinge of annoyance.

He had left in such a hurry that he had forgotten to bring a lantern.

Thinking of Shang Qinghua’s behavior just now a surge of anger arose within him.

Who did he think he was, suddenly barging in to scold him?

The more he thought, the angrier he beca.

He was unaware that he had already wandered into the depths of the Imperial Garden.

The night breeze blew gently, making shadows dance among the garden’s shrubs.

Yue Mingxuan kicked at the low bushes to vent his frustration while keeping alert to any movents around him.

When he reached the center of the garden, his heart tightened slightly.

He had always been a staunch atheist, but ever since experiencing transmigration, he had beco a firm believer in higher powers.

Walking through the pitch dark Imperial Garden now, he felt a shiver run through him.

Countless people had t their deaths in this palace and perhaps eight or nine out of a thousand, who could say whether restless spirits lingered in this garden?

Thinking of this, Yue Mingxuan quickened his pace.

Just as he was about to reach the entrance of the Imperial Garden, he suddenly felt a gust of wind behind him.

He only had ti to turn his head before collapsing softly to the ground.

...

Yue Mingxuan had disappeared once again and this ti it was right inside the inner palace.

He was vanishing without a trace despite the heavy guards.

The news struck the entire palace like a splash of cold water into boiling oil, causing uproar throughout the imperial residence.

Upon hearing the news, the emperor was so enraged that he smashed a set of antique.

Finding that insufficient, he also threw every palace guard responsible for the inner palace that day into the dungeon.

However, Gongsun Xing who heard the news just smiled faintly.

He had seen through it, given Yue Mingxuan’s intelligence and wit, his life would not truly be in danger.

At most, he might endure so hardship.

Moreover, there was certainly soone more anxious than him.

Shang Qinghua sat in his study and tossing aside the note in his hand.

Three days had passed and still there was no news of Yue Mingxuan.

He couldn’t rely on hoping as last ti that Xi Yu would casually stumble upon him at a brothel.

At that mont, the door opened and Mo Yi entered the room while carrying a bamboo tube. "Master, I’ve investigated all the guards on duty that night."

Shang Qinghua frowned. "Any progress?"

Mo Yi handed the note to Shang Qinghua. "No issues with the others, but there’s a guard nad Yang Xiao. Recently, his family seems to have co into a sudden windfall."

The news made Shang Qinghua’s eyes light up. After a mont of thought, he said, "Send Jin Yong. Tell him I said so. Let him personally keep an eye on this Yang Xiao."

Hearing this, Mo Yi was startled. "But Master, Jin Yong has been watching.... Suddenly sending him to... Isn’t this... problematic?"

Shang Qinghua rubbed his temples that was aching from the sleepless nights, and said tiredly, "Just give the orders. I have my reasons. The top priority is finding him. I can’t convince myself to wait any longer."

Seeing him insist, Mo Yi stepped back helplessly.

His master was like this every ti it ca to Prince Yue Mingxuan, completely losing composure and judgnt.

He couldn’t tell whether this relentless pursuit was good or bad for him in the long run.

Shang Qinghua didn’t realize that his actions had already started to worry Mo Yi.

He rely sat there, frowning and pondering, who had Yue Mingxuan offended and why was no one letting this go?

Yue Mingxuan himself was now thinking about the sa question.

He had been confined in this dark, sunless, decrepit room for two days, seeing no one except for a mute who delivered his als daily.

He tried to communicate with the mute using hand signals, but the mute treated him as if he were invisible.

He didn’t know why, but his intuition told him that this was sohow connected to the man he had encountered in the theater.

Yet Beirong was vast, how had that man found him, and how could he abduct him right from the palace?

This man’s abilities were not trivial.

Picking up the hard, stale bun nearby, Yue Mingxuan took a bite and found himself speechless.

Although he hadn’t been physically abused, the food was barely edible.

Three als a day ca with no side dishes and it’s just plain congee and buns.

Even prison als would be better than this.

His neck throbbed faintly from the impact.

Yue Mingxuan couldn’t help cursing inwardly at the person who had attacked him from behind.

That person was too unprofessional; striking the right spot shouldn’t have hurt this much.
