“Chen Xuan! Chen Xuan!” Chen Luo was taken by Wei Yan and appeared directly in Chen’s house. As soon as he landed, Chen Luo shouted loudly, and the servants who had just rested also stuck their heads out.

Chen Ping asked with a puzzled look: “Master, you are…”

“Where’s Chen Xuan?”

Chen Ping pointed to the backyard, and Chen Luo hurriedly rushed towards the backyard.

Entering Chen Xuan’s yard, the yard was dark, and he didn’t see the normally noisy Xiaohuan, Chen Ping’s heart suddenly lifted. Suddenly, a groaning sound came from Chen Xuan’s bedroom. It was Chen Xuan’s voice.

Chen Luo’s eyes were red, he suddenly kicked open the door and rushed in.

Although there were no lights in the room, the bright moonlight came in through the window. Chen Luo saw a scene he couldn’t believe. It was exactly:

The ink-soaked eyebrow peaks are wet with water, and the pretty face containing spring tinted with red.

The suet is condensed into a delicate body, and two groups of jade rabbit-like arms are crossed across her body.

At this moment, Chen Xuan immediately took a piece of clothing from the side, covering her delicate body, standing behind the tub, bowing slightly, dodging a little, but her tone was stern: “Who?”

Chen Luo quickly turned his back to Chen Xuan, and said with a guilty conscience, “It’s me!”

Chen Luo clearly heard a sigh of relief behind him, and then Chen Xuan’s tone softened a lot: “Why did you come in?”

”I was attempted to be assassinated in the street. I was worried about you, so I came to see you.”

”There was an assassination attempt?” Chen Xuan’s voice suddenly increased in volume, followed by a rustling sound, and soon Chen Xuan put on a coat and walked in front of Chen Luo, and touched Chen Luo’s body with concern, “How is it? Did you get hurt?”

”No!” At this moment, Chen Luo smelled the fragrance emanating from Chen Xuan’s body, and took a step back, “Where’s Xiaohuan?”

”That girl is a little uncomfortable. I let her lie down in my room.” Following Chen Xuan, she said, “Things for women, you shouldn’t ask anymore.”

Chen Luo nodded, his eyes fell on Chen Xuan, and when he thought of the scene just now, his face flushed instantly. Fortunately, Chen Xuan was blind and could not see.

Chen Luo asked again and again: “Then what was your shout from before for? I thought you were in danger.”

”I accidentally kicked the tub and screamed in pain. Who knew you were outside the door. Sister is fine, but you can’t do this to other girls in the future.”

”Well…” Chen Luo didn’t know what to say anymore. At this moment, Ji Zhong’s voice reached Chen Luo’s ears like the sound of nature.

Ji Zhong: “Master, Wei Great Confucian Scholar is still waiting for you in the middle hall!”

”Come here…” Chen Luo said to Chen Xuan as if he was pardoned, and hurriedly ran out. Hearing Chen Luo’s footsteps go away, Chen Xuan’s brows slowly wrinkled, as if she was thinking about something important…



”Boy, this is called the underworld qi of death.” Wei Yan stretched out his palm. At this time, the scar on Wei Yan’s palm had healed for the most part, but there was still a wound the size of a grain of rice. The Noble True qi and the other qi became entangled with each other and refused to retreat.

”This kind of attack logically only exists in the underworld, that’s why I didn’t expect it to appear in the human world. Tell me, who do you think is behind the scenes?” ”

Chen Luo looked at Wei Yan’s wound with a serious face, and said, “This junior doesn’t know the true identity of the other party. We can only look at it in hindsight to deduce who the culprit is.” 

”This junior is only an ordinary wealthy household in Wan’an County. How can he offend someone who can hurt a great scholar? I’ve been thinking about it, if it’s someone who has both power and has a grudge against me. There are only two.”

”The first is the Yihu clan backing the tiger demon. It was the blood-refining demon who assassinated me, so they are undoubtedly the literary heart and made a trade with the tiger demon. They can get an unknown literary heart without the knowledge of the court, this shows that their methods are numerous

”But no matter which side it is, I think their goal should be to snatch back the immortal literary heart. It’s just that this junior doesn’t understand. Didn’t today’s assassination reveal their whereabouts?”

Wei Yan smiled lightly: “Killing you is just a pretext, their real purpose is to attract Tongchen, and then lure me to take action to investigate the truth of Wan’an County.”

”Stir the grass and startle the snake!” Chen Luo suddenly realized.

Wei Yan stretched out his hand and pinched Chen Luo’s face: “Boy, who are you calling a snake?”

”Ouch……”



”Lady, Horse Three is dead. That Chen Luo was guarded by Confucian disciples, and his subordinates did not succeed.”

While Wei Yan was talking with Chen Luo, in an ordinary house in Wan’an County, an old woman with an old face bowed to a figure wrapped in a black robe and said.

”It doesn’t matter!” A clear female voice came from the black robe, “It was originally a bonus. Wet Nurse Rong, can you find out how many great scholars Wenchang Pavilion has sent?”

That Wet Nurse Rong replied: “When Wei Yan came out, this old body sensed that there was still another great scholar’s aura in the east of the city, but he didn’t let it out.”

”Is it another sly trick? As expected.”

Rong mama said indignantly: “It’s all that failure of a Yihu clan, otherwise it would not be necessary for the lady to move on her own.”

The shadow stretched out, and the wide black robe could not cover her exquisite figure, only to hear her chuckle: “I would like to thank them, otherwise there will be no chance to come out and breathe. But I don’t think Master will spare them lightly.”

Wet Nurse Rong nodded: “Exactly as the lady said.”

”Wet Nurse Rong has worked hard to prepare well. In two days, it will be Master’s birthday. I plan to take the recovered literary heart as a gift for Master’s birthday.”

Wet Nurse Rong performed a standard blessing: “I understand, I will not let the lady down.” Then she left the room.

The black-robed figure stood up and sighed softly, “This is suffocating me.” Then he put down the hood of the black-robed robe, his black silk hanging down, but there was still a half-covered mask on his face.

”Why doesn’t master allow me to show my face in front of outsiders, not even the maids?” The black-robed woman muttered in her heart and took off the mask again. In an instant, a picture of a face that was beautiful no matter what the expression is, appeared in the bronze mirror of the dressing table. It was a very charming face.

If Chen Luo was here, he would definitely recognize it at a glance, this face is Chen Xuan!



”Sir, what are we going to do next?” Chen Luo couldn’t go out after seeing Wei Yan away, but it was still early and he couldn’t sleep. Looking at Ji Zhong’s expectant eyes, he sighed, “Write a book.”

”Young Master truly is wise.” Ji Zhong’s face was full of spring breeze, “How many chapters is young master going to add today?”

Being familiar with Chen Luo, Ji Zhong also learned some new vocabulary.

”I’ll be working hard, let’s finish writing it today.” Chen Luo said, not to satisfy Ji Zhong, but mainly because this assassination reminded Chen Luo, he still had to finish writing “Laughing in the Wind” first to see if it was a good one. What kind of book spirit may be able to improve his self-protection ability.

”Even if it’s Dongfang Bubai or Yue Buqun, I recognize it. But please please, don’t be that weak chicken of Lin Pingzhi!
