Chapter 302 Kanna, Let Me Ride You
Xu San quickly said, "Although I can't capture all those people for you, I can monitor them for you. You probably don't have many people on the mainland to monitor them, so I can help you monitor these people!"
The reason Xu San gave was actually not very good. Hakuto could clearly hear the perfunctoriness in it. Or rather, it was an excuse Xu San came up with because he had no choice.
However, he was right about one thing: Hakuto indeed had no usable people in the Great Ming. So Hakuto reluctantly accepted this excuse.
"Remember what you said. If anything goes wrong, not only you, but everyone connected to you will be implicated in this matter."
Xu San repeatedly nodded to show he understood, but breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Fortunately, Hakuto wasn't as crazy as he was two years ago. If Hakuto was still as crazy as he was two years ago, then Xu San would truly be doomed.
Xu San cautiously asked Hakuto, "So, can I leave with my people now?"
Hakuto nodded. Xu San, as if granted amnesty, immediately turned and left with his people, without any lingering attachment to this terrible place.
Xu San felt he probably would never come back here for the rest of his life.
As for the eager, hopeful gazes of the Liu Family's members, Xu San ignored them completely.
Hakuto looked at those crucified and thought of the names on the list Liu San had mentioned.
If what he said about this list was true, then there were probably things hidden here that Hakuto didn't know about.
As the interrogation of Liu San progressed, Hakuto also figured out some of the situation. Liu San seemed cunning and far-sighted, but he was just a knife pushed forward.
Liu San had learned from some channels that Hakuto's mother possessed a Legendary Cooking Utensil. Driven by greed, he had his daughter try to find a way to seize it.
The result was that they never found the Legendary Cooking Utensil, and eventually, the matter had to be dropped. The only one who got hurt was Hakuto's mother.
After hearing this, Hakuto gave a cold laugh. The Jade Dragon Pot was right before their eyes, yet these people were as blind as bats and couldn't see it?
But on second thought, it made sense. Who would ever think that a rusty, broken iron pot was actually the Jade Dragon Pot, one of the Legendary Cooking Utensils?
If Hakuto hadn't encountered the Legendary Cooking Utensil and made it reveal the Supreme Dragon Mark, he wouldn't have recognized it either.
It seemed he needed to find the mastermind behind the scenes for a proper interrogation!
Back then, even the Ming imperial family was involved. So the mastermind behind the scenes was likely the current Ming imperial family.
Regardless of the reasons, Hakuto needed to get to the bottom of this matter and put an end to it.
And also, to avenge his mother!
"Kanna!"
At Hakuto's call, Kanna appeared before him!
"Is something wrong?"
"Let me ride you for a bit."
Instantly, Kanna's face showed shock.
"Pervert!!!"
Hearing this, Hakuto couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.
"I think you're misunderstanding something!"
"I'm not misunderstanding anything, you pervert! Are you no longer satisfied with those women and now setting your sights on me?"
Hearing this, Hakuto felt like shit.
"I meant, let me ride you to Beiping. I need to go to Beiping. With you, I can reach my destination in a very short time. Do you understand what I'm saying? I'm asking you to take me to Beiping. It's not that kind of bad thing you're thinking about. I'm not so depraved as to do anything to a loli who looks like a minor!" (T/N: For those who don't know, Beiping is the previous name of Beijing.)
Hakuto felt truly wronged at this moment!
After hearing what Hakuto said, Kanna was still somewhat suspicious.
"Anyway, stop wasting time and take me to Beiping!"
"Alright, but as the price..."
"I know, I know. Dragon beard noodles, right? I'll make them for you!"
The next moment, the little girl with chubby legs before Hakuto transformed into a white dragon.
However, instead of scales, the white dragon was covered in fluffy fur, looking quite beautiful.
Hakuto stepped on an outstretched wing and climbed to Kanna's neck.
"Then, let's go."
The next moment, before Hakuto's eyes, the scenery blurred. The two of them were already in the sky, moving at an extremely fast speed.
After only about ten minutes or so, Hakuto could already see the Forbidden City, the unique architecture of Beiping.
Under Kanna's speed, in the blink of an eye, Hakuto had already arrived at the Forbidden City. Kanna's arrival naturally attracted a lot of attention.
Hakuto ignored the guarding soldiers and went straight into the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
As for the soldiers who wanted to make a move, they fell to the ground one after another, unconscious.
"Have Zhu Xianhe come here!"
After speaking, Hakuto walked into the Imperial Ancestral Temple and paid no more attention to the matters outside.
Soon, this matter was reported to the cabinet and the current emperor. However, these people all chose to remain silent.
These people already knew it was Hakuto who had come, so naturally, none of them were willing to take the risk. A precious son should not sit under a dangerous eaves!
Although Hakuto seemed normal now, what if he went crazy again? Wouldn't they just be waiting for death?
But the problem was, if they didn't go, and Hakuto came after them, they still wouldn't be able to escape.
Hakuto had no idea what these people were thinking.
He walked into the Imperial Ancestral Temple and looked at the ancestral tablets.
A faint sense of strangeness arose because among those tablets, he saw his own!
"Does this count as offering the first incense to myself?"
The tablet of Emperor Shengzong Zhu Cilang was placed in the center. The first incense would definitely be for Zhu Cilang, no doubt.
But seeing his own spirit tablet still felt a bit strange to Hakuto.
Hakuto stood in the Imperial Ancestral Temple. No one knew how much time had passed when the current emperor, Zhu Xianhe, arrived at the Imperial Ancestral Temple.
"To be honest, I'm a bit disappointed in you."
