Chapter 647: Three Days Later, the State Preceptor Hosts a Banquet
Master Zhang was perplexed and asked, "What excuse should we use?"
After a moment of contemplation, Sikong Jing replied, "Just say that Sikong Jing has heard of the unmatched beauty of the Moon Soul Fairy Gongyang Ying, and he is displeased that she only wishes to marry men from the War Soul Dynasty. He wants to have a good spar with her."
"Alternatively, you can say that after Sikong Jing has killed Lian Zhuiyu, he claims that Gongyang Ying will be next. Make something up."
Having left these words behind, Sikong Jing saw that the so-called pursuing troops were now quite far from the War Soul Sacred Dragon Palace, so he slipped away from the group, blending into the streets and completely disappearing from sight.
Master Zhang stared blankly at Sikong Jing’s departing figure and for a moment couldn’t make sense of the situation.
What does Mo Ci’s pursuit have to do with the Imperial Advisor Mansion and Gongyang Ying?
But now Master Zhang was fully following Sikong Jing’s orders, and so he led the pursuit team all the way to the Imperial Advisor Mansion. Although he was only a tutor from the War Soul Sacred Dragon Palace, his menacing approach still resulted in an audience with Gongyang Ren.
"What did you say? Sikong Jing harbors malicious intentions toward me?"
Gongyang Ying was also present during the audience with the State Preceptor, and when she heard Master Zhang’s account, she couldn’t help but widen her beautiful eyes in astonishment.
"Yes, Sikong Jing said before killing Lian Zhuiyu that Zhuiyu looked as ugly as a pig’s head, unbearable to behold, and then he said he wanted to see what the Moon Soul Fairy looks like. He plans to visit soon."
