Chapter 376: 310: Serving as a Dog, Covered Iron Demon
"People from the third prince have come?" In the dark secret chamber, Su Heng gently set down the miniature ancient book he was holding, his thick eyebrows deeply furrowed.
"I have never met the third prince, a figure distant as the horizon, so why suddenly send someone to make contact with me?" Su Heng sat cross-legged on the ground, the light of the fire dancing on his face. He stroked his chin and murmured, his expression slightly puzzled.
"You don’t like this third prince?" Li Hongxiu cocked her head.
"A little bit, but he’s too far away from me to say whether I like him or not," Su Heng massaged his temples and said, "Remember the attack on Baihua County? It was ordered by Yuan Hong, the Great General of the Northern Frontier."
"Later, I confronted him and read his memories."
"In his memory, a series of actions by the King of Fixed Profundity have the shadow of the third prince lurking behind."
Li Hongxiu, intelligent as she was, immediately grasped the implication of Su Heng’s few words. Her eyes widened slightly, and she covered her mouth, surprised, "You mean to say, the release of the demon god from the monastery, the real mastermind behind it, wasn’t the King of Fixed Profundity but the third prince?"
"Hmm," Su Heng nodded, his breathing a little heavier.
"But why would he do that?" Li Hongxiu lowered her hand, regaining her composure. Still, her clear, sharply defined eyes retained a persistent haze of doubt.
