The melodious sound of the piano surrounded the room. Although Xia Xu didn't understand the music, he could still hear the sweetness of the music. However, compared to the mesmerizing music played by the musicians in the palace before, the sound of the piano was indeed a bit different.

.

At this time, Xia Xu couldn't help but think of someone.

Zhao Wanqing. She was originally the daughter of the Zhao family and the sister of Zhao Ming in Qingshan Town in Qingfeng Region. She was supposed to be a very ordinary woman. However, due to the excessive doting of the Zhao family master, she was not allowed to practice martial arts. Therefore, her chess, calligraphy and painting

Proficient in everything, she is a truly talented woman.

Her musical skills are even better than those of the royal musicians of the Great Xia Dynasty.

However, when I saw her again a year ago, she had completely changed. In the eyes that were once full of knowledge, there was a slow hatred for herself. It even seemed that the hatred wanted to engulf her.

Xia Xu looked at Yu'er's playing movements and sighed inadvertently.

"You're not...thinking of another woman, are you?"

Suddenly, Xia Xu raised his head and saw Yu Baiheng holding his head in his hands and looking at him with interest.

He smiled slightly: "Why do you say that?"

"Look at your eyes." Yu Baiheng suddenly walked towards him quickly, "I see very accurately in this aspect. Moreover, I know that the purpose of your coming to the Central Region is to find a person, a woman!"

"She is my maid. Without her, I can't move forward." Xia Xu blurted out immediately. In the days when Ruoqinmeng was not around, he felt a strong loneliness in his heart. The person who stayed with him and talked to him every day

The woman who relieves boredom, takes care of her daily life, does every little thing for herself without complaining, always looks up to her with admiration, and calls herself "son".

At this time, Xia Xu suddenly came back to his senses and turned sideways to look at Yu Baiheng: "How do you know that I came here to find Meng'er? Is it really just a guess?"

"Humph, I won't harm you." Yu Baiheng turned his head and asked with a strange answer, "Whether you believe it or not, I will always stay by your side anyway."

At this time, Yu'er's music quietly stopped, and she finished playing another piece. As the music ended, Xia and Xu involuntarily turned their heads to look at Yu'er, obviously frightening her: "I...

I will continue..."

"No need, you can rest for a while." Xia Xu said softly. However, he was really a little depressed in his heart. Why was Yu'er so afraid of him? Is he really so terrible?

He shook his head helplessly and closed his eyes gently. From the beginning, Xia Xu's mental energy had been paying attention to another room on the top floor. Yes, it was the room where Pang Ze was.

He had just had an affair with a brothel girl, so he kicked her out of the house and made the bed to remove the traces of the incident.

Unexpectedly, the famous Pang Ze, the younger brother of the famous head of the Pang family, would actually do these things with a brothel girl, which really turned Xia Xu off. When they were fierce, Xia Xu directly cut off his consciousness, unwilling to

Peeping again.

I just don’t know when the person Pang Ze is waiting for will show up.

…

At midnight.

Yu'er had already fallen asleep, and Yu Baiheng was still drinking tea with Xia Xu. Suddenly, Xia Xu grinned: "Finally here."

"Oh?" Yu Baiheng tilted his head.

"Nothing." Xia Xu shook his head, "I'll go and come back."

Before he finished speaking, he disappeared. Only Yu Baiheng and Yu'er, who was sleeping, were left in the room.

Yu Baiheng looked at the night outside the window and showed a bright and naughty smile: "Those two people have such low cultivation, oh, it seems... they don't need my help. Your Highness, this guy you admire

, it does seem to have a little bit of charm..."

Xia Xu naturally did not hear what Yu Baiheng said. At this time, he had quietly hidden at the door of Pang Ze's room. Under the influence of the dark attribute, the people inside did not notice anyone outside at all.

There were two people inside, one was Pang Ze and the other was an unknown man in black.

"Sir... there was trouble here during the day. Wouldn't it be a bit... inappropriate for us to meet here?" This was Pang Ze's voice.

"Don't worry." This should be the voice of the man in black, "The brothel is despised by almost all strong men. Very few people will pay attention to this place. This is one. Second, if someone really wants to spy on us,

News, there wouldn’t be such a big commotion during the day.”

"Ah, sir, you are wise! With you here, Xia Xu will definitely die without a burial place!" Pang Ze said.

Sure enough, it was these four major families who instructed those people to assassinate him. After confirming the news, Xia Xu couldn't help clenching his fists and drawing out blood.

It was them who caused Meng'er to run away alone, and now her life or death is uncertain! Xia Xu secretly swore in his heart that he would never let these four families have an easy time!

I heard the man in black say again: "Haha, this time, our boss took action himself. To be honest, I have never seen the boss make a mistake. Then Xia Xu must be dead."

"This... will relieve the hatred in the hearts of our four major families!"

"I am here to receive a reward. According to the agreement, you must provide us with half of the treasures in the treasury of your four major families."

"Ah! But... but..."

"Do you have any objections? At the beginning, this was all agreed upon."

"No... I don't dare. Just sir, how can we determine whether Xia Xu is alive or dead? What if, I mean what if, what if your boss makes a mistake... Then Xia Xu is not an ordinary person!"

"Missed? Our boss can't miss! If you don't take revenge, believe it or not, we will turn your four major families into ruins!"

"Sir! No, don't get excited, let's talk slowly..."

In the end, Pang Ze decided to offer a quarter of the treasures in the treasury first, and then offer the remaining treasures one year later. And the other party finally agreed to this proposal.

It seems that the assassin was convinced that he would die. At that time, he was already on the verge of death. If it were not for the Wood Spirit Pearl, he would not even be able to persist to the camp. Moreover, at that time, he was also affected by the soul-invading black smoke of Baili Lang.

, if Zhuo Yiling had not promised her with her body, it would never have been possible to stabilize her mind and burst out her mental power to disperse the black smoke.

Even now, once the Wood Spirit Pearl is gone, he will die in the next second. Therefore, it is reasonable and reasonable for him to confirm the news of his death. However, since he is not dead, he will definitely repay this revenge twice as much.

.

Xia Xu looked at the two of them coldly. The assassin's cultivation level was a junior martial arts master. He could kill him instantly and there was nothing to be afraid of.
