Chapter 255: Actually in Song Mansion
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
When Long woke up, he found that his empress was no longer by his side.
Yawning, Long got up from the bed.
âQingzhou!â
He called s.h.i.+âs name, but didnât receive any response.
Long curled his lips and walked outside.
When he opened the door, a Shadow Guardian greeted him. âMaster.â
âYing Feng, you came just in time. Whereâs Qingzhou?â Long didnât see s.h.i.+ when he got up, so he was a little sad.
Ying Feng said, âMaster, Master s.h.i.+ went out.â
âWhat?â Long frowned. âWhere did he go?â
After a pause, Ying Feng said, âSong mansion.â
âSong mansion?â Long was puzzled. âWhy did he go there?â
Ying Feng kept silent for a few seconds. Then, he said, âMaster s.h.i.+ went to meet Ouyang Chuan and Liu Suifeng before he left for Song mansion.â
Long was stunned and a thought occurred to him!
But how was that possible?
Was that thing hidden in Song mansion?
Long was quite smart. He immediately guessed that the mysterious thing might be hidden in Song mansion!
Long pursed his lips and didnât go to find s.h.i.+. He thought that s.h.i.+ had already gone and it was no use for him to go there at this moment. Moreover, he knew that his empress wasnât a reckless person. If it would bring disaster to Song family, s.h.i.+ wouldnât have done that.
s.h.i.+ might take action in secret.
Or he had already made arrangements before he left.
After thinking for a moment, Long asked, âHow many Shadow Guardians went with Qingzhou?â
âHalf of them,â Ying Feng answered at once, âBut Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan are still here. Master s.h.i.+ has ordered that no matter what happens, they must stay here with you.â
So s.h.i.+ asked Liu and Ouyang to stay here to protect Long.
Half of the Shadow Guardians had left. Long found that his empress had really made a plan.
Long sighed inwardly. Although his empress didnât tell this to him earlier, he shouldnât get angry.
Besides, even if he was awake at that time, it wasnât suitable for him to partic.i.p.ate in such activities.
âDid Ying Qiu go with him?â
âYes, he did,â Ying Feng said.
Long nodded. âWell, I see. Iâll have breakfast.â
âYes, Iâll order them to deliver the food.â Ying Feng was relieved.
In fact, he had been worried that Long would go to find s.h.i.+.
Now that Long said those words, he naturally felt relieved.
Long went back to his room and waited for breakfast.
Soon, a lot of food was sent there.
Long had breakfast alone. Without s.h.i.+ by his side, he found the food was tasteless, but he had to eat some.
Although he was worried about s.h.i.+, he was still very rational.
In any case, they had the upper hand at the moment.
Their enemy had no idea that they had already known where the evil thing was hidden, so s.h.i.+ would have much time to surround it.
Moreover, s.h.i.+ must have taken away the poisonous insect, so that thing could be taken out.
Thinking of that, Long began to wait for s.h.i.+ patiently. He was a reasonable person. If he acted rashly, it might affect s.h.i.+âs action.
In that case, he wouldnât be of any help and s.h.i.+ would be in trouble.
After breakfast, Long finally had some time to calm down and improve his internal strength in the room.
It was Liu who taught him the method. When they were in the wasteland, Liu taught him how to combine internal strength with sleep while sleeping at night. However, Long didnât master it at that time.Read manga at our MangaBob.com
Comprehension was needed for a person to practice martial arts and Long thought that he wasnât good at that at all.
But it wasnât a problem for him to just practice internal strength. Now that his empress was occupied, he had some private time.
Time pa.s.sed quickly when he was practicing. When Long finished, it was almost time for lunch.
The whole morning just pa.s.sed like that and Long felt that time pa.s.sed in the twinkling of an eye.
He never thought that a morning could be so short!
When he walked out the door, Ying Feng appeared. âMaster, do you want to have lunch?â
âNo hurry. Where are Liu Suifeng and Ouyang Chuan?â Long asked.
âMaster, they came here half an hour ago. Since you were meditating, they went back. I guess theyâre in their room now.â
âOh, letâs go to have a look.â Long went to Liuâs place.
Ying Feng followed him.
When Long got there, the two of them were having lunch.
Long thought that right after they came back from his place, they asked servants to deliver the lunch.
âWhoa, what a big meal!â Long raised his eyebrows and stepped into the room with a smile.
Liu put down his chopsticks. âHere you are⦠Do you want to join us?â
âOf course.â Long sat down on one side. âGet me a pair of chopsticks.â
âYes.â
Soon, Long got his bowl and chopsticks.
Long didnât mind that Liu and Ouyang had already eaten the food. He just began to eat leisurely.
Although he refused to have lunch at his place earlier, it didnât mean he wouldnât eat here.
Moreover, both Liu and Ouyang were with him. He would ask them everything. So it was okay to have lunch first.
Liu curled his lips. Without saying anything, he began to focus on eating.
Long and s.h.i.+ acted like a sweet couple while having meal, but Liu and Ouyang were different from them.
So, the three of them had meal quietly.
A quarter of an hour later, they had eaten their fill.
Long wiped his mouth and washed his hands before turning to Liu and Ouyang.
âTell me about last night.â
Liu knew that he would ask.
Therefore, he gave a detailed account of what they found in Song mansion the previous night. He affirmed that they acted naturally and their opponents definitely didnât know that theyâd already found out.
Long listened to him quietly and nodded. âQingzhou has deployed so many people. I guess our opponents had already known.â
âMhmm,â Liu responded, âItâs quite possible.â
Long touched his chin. âDo you think those people will wait and act in the evening?â
Liu was slightly stunned. âIs it possible that they act right now? But the chances of success are lower in the day. After all, during the day, even ordinary people can help us.â
âThey can help us, but they can also upset our plan. If the leader canât restrain himself, those people will gain the upper hand in the chaos. At least, it must be what they think,â Long said firmly.
After a short silence, Liu said, âWe havenât received any news.â
âFight a quick battle to force a quick decision. When we receive the news, the battle must have ended. We will only know if our enemy has succeeded or failed,â Long said sarcastically.
Liu curled his lips. âI admit that your words make sense. What are you going to do?â
Long said gently, âLetâs build the last line of defense, just in case!â
Liu was stunned. âYouâre going, too? But s.h.i.+ Qingzhou asked you to stay here. You know that he is most worried about you.â
Long smiled. âHeâs worried about me and Iâm also worried about him. Whatâs more, you know what Qingzhou is like. If Iâm not with him, Iâm afraid heâll kill too many people. Itâs not good.â
Liu fell silent. A moment later, he said, âWell, if weâre going, we shouldnât be too late.â
Long smiled and patted Liu on the shoulder. âYes! Letâs go!â
Ouyang narrowed his eyes. He had a feeling that there was a tacit understanding between Long and Liu!
And that was a little annoying!
Liu turned his head and saw that his Brother Ouyang looked upset. He immediately knew that Ouyang was thinking too much, so he went over and held Ouyangâs hand.
He learned this from Long.
He saw that Long often did this when s.h.i.+ needed to be pacified, so he gradually learned it.
And this method was really effective!
Ouyang was surprised that Liu held his hand. Then, he pursed his lips.
Liu smiled at him flatteringly and lovingly. Even if Ouyang was a little upset earlier, he felt very happy now. Besides, Ouyang wasnât stupid. He knew that Long and s.h.i.+ loved each other deeply, so it was totally impossible for Long to fall in love with Liu!
After successfully pacifying Ouyang, Liu grinned.
Well, Longâs method was really useful.
Long didnât know what the two of them were thinking about and he walked very fast.
Liu smiled at Ouyang. âBrother Ouyang, letâs go.â
Ouyang nodded. âMhmm.â
