Chapter 75 Unpredictable world events

Xia Sheng asked Huai'an, but he could not hold on. The implication was that he felt that the other party was almost unable to hold on.¢.

If this sentence reaches the ears of others present, it will definitely cause an uproar.

As the commander of the flag commander of the decisive commander, Huaian was invincible and could determine life and death with one word. Judging from the faint blue light bursting out from his palm before, he was a legendary martial master. Even if he looked at the entire Dajin Dynasty, there were very few people who were qualified to be enemies with him.

What is he unable to hold on? Why does Xia Sheng feel that he can't hold on?

You know, since Xia Sheng met Huaian, it was only when Huaian broke the crossbow in the sky that he had barely revealed the tip of his iceberg, and he only had that time to take action.

Before this, he had never fought with the enemy, and it was even more impossible to be injured. So, how did Xia Sheng judge that Huaian was already exhausted at this time?

The reason is very simple. Huaian’s flaw comes from his “no action”!

As early as when everyone was still in the carriage, Xia Sheng recalled something that he thought was extremely strange.

I still remember that day at Mr. Li’s home in Heishui Town, Hou Pingnan was suddenly attacked by three powerful men. The first one to react was Cheng Liran, then Brother Jing and Mo Lin.

After the accident, the three of them rushed to the side of the Marquis of Pingnan almost at the same time. Finally, Brother Jing saved the Marquis in time, and Cheng Liran and Mo Linze worked together to kill one of the Spirit Kings and chased the two escaped assassins.

What was Huaian doing at that time?

He came to Xia Sheng's side, pulled the corner of his clothes, and refused to let him leave.

At first glance, this action seemed to be fine, because Xia Sheng had already admitted his identity as a guest minister of Shantang at that time. If the three assassins from the Blood Sword Alliance were really sent by Shantang, then Xia Sheng naturally might be a member of the assassin group, and it would be detrimental to the Marquis to cooperate with the other party.

But when you think about it carefully, Huaian's logic of this move is a bit strange.

Logically speaking, when the object he was protected was attacked, what Huaian should do most is not to prevent Xia Sheng from making any abnormal movements, but to hurry to Pingnan Hou as fast as possible, and save him like Cheng Liran and others!

Judging from the strength of the Martial Lord Realm that Huaian had shown before, if he was willing to take action that day, where would the two Martial Kings escape?

So, the only explanation is that it is not that he doesn’t want to take action, but that he can’t take action!

After figuring this out, Xia Sheng quickly made his first test. He showed his identity as a doctor. He seemed to want to diagnose the old Marquis, but in fact he wanted to see Huaian's reaction.

As expected, Huaian did not miss this opportunity.

When Huaian grabbed Xia Sheng's wrist with his backhand, Xia Sheng's fingertips were also on his pulse.

So Xia Sheng was able to completely confirm that this palm flag envoy who seemed calm and gentle was not as powerful as he showed, but was always bluffing!

But why is Huaian willing to tell Xia Sheng such important information?

Don’t forget that to him, Xia Sheng was just a stranger, and even his identity as a guest in Shantang was likely to become the enemy of Huaian!

It is only possible that Huaian does not believe in other people in the field.

If you want to be more specific, Huaian doesn’t trust the other three colleagues from the Judgment Department even more than Xia Sheng!

Xia Sheng didn't know why, and he couldn't ask, so he pressed the secret in his heart. Until the carriage was raided by wolves and crossbow arrows just now, he finally saw some clues.

Huaian kept Brother Jing by his side, and the Marquis of Pingnan, and sent Mo Lin away.

In other words, in Huaian's heart, only Brother Jing is trustworthy!

After walking out of the carriage, Huaian immediately made a very targeted arrangement. He repeatedly sent Mo Lin and arranged Cheng Liran to the front to open the way, so as not to let the other party notice his weakness.

Until this time, he finally couldn't hold on.

After hearing Xia Sheng's inquiry, Huaian said in a very low voice: "Don't reveal flaws, otherwise, if I die, you will definitely not be able to survive."

Xia Sheng refused to comment on this and said, "The previous pulse showed that it seemed that the Qi sea was damaged when the mirror was broken. In this case, it was a miracle that you could still live."

Huaian shook his head: "Mo Lin is already suspicious of me and has been observing silently all the way. If I don't take action, it will probably be worse."

Xia Sheng frowned slightly and said suspiciously: "I think your ruling department is a solid piece."

Huaian couldn't help but smile and said, "Where there are people, there will be power struggles. Cheng Liran is not my flag-holding camp, and Mo Lin has been coveting my position for a long time. When I am strong, they naturally have to choose to surrender. But once I have an accident, hehe... I'm afraid that Han Ru will not be able to ensure that Mo Lin becomes a new flag-holding envoy..."

Xia Sheng was stunned: "Han Ru? Han Ru's hand and sword commander Han Ru?"

Huaian nodded: "Cheng Liran is also from the Sword Camp. This time, escorting the Marquis of Pingnan back to Beijing is of great importance. Of course, the first master will not be assured to let my family dominate. This is not new. If the people from the Sword Camp are responsible for any major cases, I will also install a few people in. But I didn't expect that this time..."

Upon hearing this, Xia Sheng could only smile bitterly: "So that's it. In this wilderness, if something happens to you, they will eventually put the blame on my Shantang. Not to mention that I am a witness, they will definitely kill me to silence me. Even if I just want to frame Shantang with my identity, I must die."

Huaian coughed lightly, then quickly wiped off the scarlet corner of his mouth and said, "I like talking to smart people very much."

Xia Sheng sighed: "But, with your current situation, can you really survive until Luoyang?"

"Of course I can't hold on..." Huaian stretched out his hand and handed an empty bottle back to Xia Sheng. He changed his subject: "Fortunately, the bottle of medicine you gave is indeed useful, so we only need to hold on to Maoling County. After entering the city, they dare not attack me. At that time, I will naturally find a way to get rid of them."

As soon as Huaian's words fell, Mo Lin suddenly rushed up from behind everyone, carrying two complete crossbow arrows and some fragments of the crossbow cart in his hand.

But what is most unexpected is that when I came to Huaian, Mo Lin changed his previous cold look, with a bright smile in his eyes.

"Sir, you have picked up everything, do you want to take a look?"
