Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Xu roared angrily, and then he slapped Fang hard.
Fang took a step backward.
Xu stared at Fang angrily. âYou choose. I go with you or you go there alone. If you want to go there alone, Iâll ask someone else to come with me!â
âYouâ¦â Fang was s.h.i.+vering with anger.
Xu didnât seem to be joking at all.
He looked at Fang very seriously.
Finally, Fang sighed helplessly. âAlright, you win. Letâs go together.â
Xu blinked. âAre you willing?â
Fang sighed. What else could he do?
Fang said, âSure, Iâm always willing to be with you.â
âHumph.â Xu snorted and looked a little happier.
Later, Fang took Xuâs hand with a wry smile. âYou can come with me, but you canât run around or act randomly, understand?â
âDo you think Iâm a weak woman with no strength at all?â Xu rolled his eyes. âIâm good at martial arts, okay? And you also know I can run very fast. So I can easily escape when Iâm in danger. Donât you think so?â
Fangâs lips twitched. âIâm just afraid that youâre over-confident.â
âYouâ¦â Xu got angry and stared at Fang.
Fang immediately said, âOkay, okay, Iâll stop, but you must promise me that you wonât act without permission.â
âEnough, my elder brother has already told me. You are such a nag. I am not a child anymore!â
Fang could only smile bitterly in his heart. âYes, you are no longer a child, but I need to worry more just because you are not a child. If only you were a child!â
However, Fang did not dare to say this out loud. If he did, Xu definitely wouldnât spare him!
Therefore, Fang said nothing and led Xu into the palace.
At night, Long and s.h.i.+ were lying on the bed, talking about Fang and Xu.
Then, they gradually began to talk about the case of the Liu family and Long suddenly came up with an idea, that wasâ¦
âQingzhou, I thought of something.â
âWhatâs that?â s.h.i.+ was confused.
Long sat up from the bed quickly. âHint from the master of the Liu family.â
âHmm? Whatâs the hint?â s.h.i.+ immediately asked.
âI want to go to the secret room where they found the sulfur powder,â Long said.
After thinking for a second, s.h.i.+ also sat up. âWe need to make some preparation.â
Long nodded. âMhmm.âRead more new novels on ReadNovelFull.com
After s.h.i.+ put on his clothes, he asked the Shadow Guardians to go to arrange something first. About a quarter of an hour later, Long and s.h.i.+ left Qiankun Palace.
It was a little cold at night, but Long didnât feel cold at all. Since they were a little anxious, the two of them rushed to Liu familyâs mansion.
However⦠before they entered the mansion, a fire had started there.
âd.a.m.n it.â Long was shocked.
s.h.i.+ was also surprised to see it on fire. âThe fire is not big. Iâll go in and have a check.â
âNo way!â Long grabbed him at once. âLetâs go!â
There was sulfur powder⦠It might explode!
There was definitely much more sulfur powder in the mansion!
Long didnât have time to explain so much to s.h.i.+. He only shouted, âEveryone out!â
Then he began to run.
s.h.i.+ also seemed to have understood something.
So, he also ran with Long quickly.
When they were about 200 meters away from the mansion⦠Boom! It exploded.
Since s.h.i.+ was protecting Long and they ran away a little further at the last moment, the explosion did not hurt them at all.
Long looked at the burning mansion and even his heart began to tremble.
âSo it is true⦠It is trueâ¦â Long murmured.
s.h.i.+ looked at Long. âYour Majesty, youâve guessed that there was a lot of sulfur buried under their mansion, right?â
Long smiled bitterly. âItâs not hard to guess, is it? Only a little sulfur power was found at a very secret place earlier. If there was just so little sulfur in this mansion, it wouldnât be taken seriously by the master of the Liu family. The only possibility is that there is a lot of sulfur here. However, the guards have searched the whole place and still didnât find any more. Therefore, the only answer is that itâs kept underground. Since Liu familyâs mansion here, itâs impossible to turn it upside down. Someone must be watching us in the dark. He is very smart and he knew that we came out of the palace and went straight to the Liu family. Why did we go to the Liu family? He knew the reason was that we mustâve thought of the secret about the sulfur powder. He knew that apart from the sulfur power, we still suspected that there were other secrets in the rooms of this mansion, but we hadnât found them. That person was afraid that we might find out those secrets, so he burned the sulfur and set the place on fire. Therefore, the fire started just when we were about to enter the mansionâ¦â
s.h.i.+ listened to Longâs speculation carefully. After a long time, he breathed out a long breath.
âIf thatâs the case⦠there must be someone watching us in the dark.â
Long nodded and didnât look very good. s.h.i.+ looked at him and said softly, âWhat do you think are the secrets in the rooms there?â
âI have no idea. Iâm afraid⦠we can only go in and have a check when the fire is out.â
s.h.i.+ fell silent.
Long didnât stay where he was. âOfficers and soldiers will be here soon. Letâs not stay here to cause more trouble. As for the secret rooms in this mansion⦠since someone arrived ahead of us, we have no idea if the secrets are still thereâ¦â
s.h.i.+ nodded. âLetâs go back now. Iâll send someone to tell Hu Qingyuan to pay more attention to those rooms, no matter whether the secrets have been taken away or not.â
âI trust Hu Qingyuan. He has been staying there to deal with the homicide case, but he still didnât find anything else⦠Qingzhou, forget it. I doubt we can find anything even without this fire and explosion tonight.â
âDonât be discouraged. Since those people want to use Liu family for some purpose, truth will come out sooner or later,â s.h.i.+ said firmly.
Long finally nodded. âMhmmâ¦â
Then, s.h.i.+ held Longâs hand. âLetâs go.â
Long took a deep breath. Looking at the place where the fire was burning, he nodded. âOkay, letâs goâ¦â
